A Town Called Purgatory

Like the way you play the harp,

scares way the bandit.

- Gonna wear that picture right out out, Yankee.

That a nudie?

Come on. That's nudie, isn't it?

Now you think I could be a Pinkerton?

Because I think I'd be one damned good Pinkerton.

I ain't scared of a gunfight.

You know I can ride for days--

No.

Well, okay.

Everybody was wanting (indistinct).

What in tarnation?

- Damn near ripped myself a brand new hole--

Now I'm mighty grateful we weren't chasing--

My nag took, it sent a jolt of fire right up my backside.

I ain't felt no pain like that down (indistinct).

I've fallen down the street (indistinct)

part of the day just hunkered down in the privy.

Something's coming.

The horses, Preston.

The horses!

Richard!

Richard!

It's just me. It's just me.

Something ripped right through the reins.

Indians?

I don't think so.

Navajo territory ain't no place

to ride a (indistinct).

Bandits?

Maybe.

What the fuck you want to do then? Huh?

We got no horse to ride--

Think it's coyotes?

No, that was big.

Real big.

A wolf pack maybe, it's something

that'd the horses and it's close by.

We should check.

You can check.

Ain't safe to wander.

- So we're just supposed to stand here 'till sun up?

, check.

Stand down, Yankee.

I'll assess the situation.

Ezra, keep Mr. Big City here company.

How close you think it was?

- Oh, it was right up on us. Maybe 20 feet or something.

Mountain lions?

No, lions are skittish.

Not even a paw print.

Ez?

Quit ginning about. You're making me nervous.

My gut is turned on this one, boys.

I say we go back to Copper Creek.

All right, it's a half a day's walk from here.

We can regroup, we can get new steeds,

shit, we'll be back in a couple days, now come on, Cody!

Ez is right.

It's rough territory up here.

Indian land ain't no place to be without a horse.

How long on foot?

Day, maybe more.

We continue on at first light.

- You know you got a real hard on from train robbers.

I'll continue on by myself if I have to.

- No, we stick together. We soldier on together.

Fuck, fuck, fuck!

And I got first watch.

Shit, this just ain't my night.

Don't get too roostered up.

Stay sharp.

Hello, hello?

Sit up.

- What? - Ezra's gone.

He just up and left?

Looks like it.

Beckett!

Ezra!

Beckett!

Ezra!

- Beckett! - Ezra!

A deserter?

Yeah, it looks like it.

Better off without that fat fuck anyway.

Alright. Grab your gear.

Take what you can carry.

What about the tent and the saddle?

You gonna carry that?

Let's Yankee, time's a wasting.

Hold on now.

Sir, are you all right?

Sir?

Looks like something slit his throat.

He's still alive.

What's he saying?

He's saying something about an animal.

Is he praying?

- No. - Por favor.

I think he's saying "kill me, please."

Sir, we're gonna get you to Purgatory.

No, por favor, no.

Doesn't sound like he wants to.

Yeah, I got that.

- Help me get him up. - Padre.

- How long do you think he's gonna last?

We can't just leave him here like this.

I do agree with you on that, Yankee.

- God damn it, the hell did you do that for?!

Because it was the right thing to do.

Now let's make haste.

Whoever did this to him,

they might want to do that to us.

Yankee.

There she is.

You see that?

What is it?

- Bit chilly not to have a fire burning somewhere.

No smoke, nothing.

- What are you thinking? - I don't know yet.

Keep your eyes peeled.

First thing we gotta do is get some fresh horses.

God knows I could hit a stake right about now.

What the hell?

Hello? - Shh.

You think it was Indians?

I don't know.

- Last time I saw a town this empty, it's either church

or a hanging.

Well, it ain't Sunday.

Goddamn, that's a couple of weeks

of rot right there.

Disease maybe?

We ain't see no bodies lying around.

Let's get outta here.
