Woodrow Call:
Didn't you hear me? I said get your boots off

Dan Suggs:
Damned if we will. I said we were horse traders

Gus McCrae:

Dan Suggs:
I don't know what the hell you're talkin' about

Gus McCrae:
You're a black liar sir

Dan Suggs:
Just ask Jake if we didn't buy them horses

Woodrow Call:
'dyou buy them three cowboys you shot? 'dyou buy them two farmers you burned? Pea, you & Newt get your ropes; tie 'em up

Jake Spoon:
Oh you don't need to tie me up, Newt. Hell I ain't killed anybody. I just fell in with these boys to get me through the territory; hell I was gonna leave 'em first chance I got

Gus McCrae:
I wish you'd taken that chance a little earlier, Jake; a man who'll go along with five killin's, takin' his leave a little slow. Go ahead Newt

Jake Spoon:

Woodrow Call:

Roy Suggs:

Gus McCrae:
Pick out a tree to hang you from, son

Jake Spoon:
Gus, I...

Gus McCrae:
You know how it works, Jake: you ride with an outlaw, you die with an outlaw. I'm sorry you crossed the line

Jake Spoon:
I didn't see no line, Gus. I was just tryin' to get through the territory, without gettin' scalped; that's all

Gus McCrae:
I'm sure that's true, Jake
