things differently in the West. Uh.
Speaker 2: Wait, don't look at 'em differently, cred. We just uh
have to live differently.
Speaker 3: So and the people and the people don't take hasty judging.
Speaker 6: I reckon, I wasn't judging the people so much as
the surrounding glouse surrounding.
Speaker 2: It's not the most important thing out here at Krid.
Speaker 6: Well, I know, sir, But well, I can't help believe
in miss Kitty would be better off someplace other than
a saloon.
Speaker 5: My people always told me she's a fine woman.
Speaker 3: She's a fine woman, and I think maybe i'd leave
Kitty's surroundings up to her.
Speaker 7: No, sorry, we haven't a better eating place to show you, Billy.
Speaker 5: It's all right, miss Kitty.
Speaker 6: As Marshall said to me this afternoon, surroundings aren't the
most important thing.
Speaker 4: Mm Matt said that, did he?
Speaker 6: It's ma'am and I can add to right now. At
least they aren't near as important as the company.
Speaker 5: Thank you.
Speaker 7: Nobody's bothered to turn a compliment like that for me
in a long time.
Speaker 5: Miss Kitty M. I'd like to ask you something.
Speaker 7: Go ahead at Billy, Sister Lucy. She never mentioned the
kind of work you do. I don't think I haven't
mentioned it to her.
Speaker 6: Well, I can't help feeling, ma'am, that you'd be a
lot happier if you were situated someplace else.
Speaker 4: Are you talking about the long brunch?
Speaker 5: Yes, ma'am, I am. A saloon just isn't a suitable
place for lady. I know it isn't.
Speaker 7: Now, Belle, look care look at her?
Speaker 6: Are you better come on back your own place? Back?
Speaker 5: The lady is with me.
Speaker 2: We've been looking for you. Come on back to your
own place. Yeah.
Speaker 6: We drink better when you're pretty enough the place.
Speaker 4: So you go along. Boys, I'm having a supper and I'll.
Speaker 5: Take care of this. I've told you once. The lady
is with me.
Speaker 6: Now, if you don't stop bothering her, I'll be forced
to take it as a personal insult. La he said, Well,
I do believe the little fellow is standing up for kiddeos. Now,
I'm warning you, sir, Why are you fancy talking to
you boys?
Speaker 7: You going back to the long branch. I'll be along, Director.

back for him?
Speaker 5: We just once.
Speaker 4: He didn't mean anything.
Speaker 5: I don't know where you going now?
Speaker 4: Drinks are on me?
Speaker 5: Oh we drinks?
Speaker 6: Well, sure, think kitty.
Speaker 2: Well we'll see.
Speaker 5: Say. I wish you hadn't done that, miss Kitty.
Speaker 7: You don't understand the way things are here, Billy. They
didn't mean anything, But no lady.
Speaker 5: Has to submit to that sort of thing.
Speaker 4: Oh, Billy, you got a lot to learn. You like him?

more papers sign here.
Speaker 2: They'll be right with you. Nah, How what can I

Speaker 7: Well, I guess it is Matt in a way. I'm
awful worried about that boy.
Speaker 2: Oh well, what's happened?
Speaker 4: Well, nothing's happened yet at least.
Speaker 5: I was able to stop it.
Speaker 2: Oh what do you mean?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 7: Last night we were having separate tel monicos and talon
weed came in and they were drunk.
Speaker 4: You know how they act.
Speaker 2: I didn't krit take 'em on.
Speaker 4: He was ready to.
Speaker 7: I managed to stop it this time. This time, Matt,
that young fool's determined to defend my honor.
Speaker 4: One of these times. Maybe next time I won't.
Speaker 7: Be able to break it up and offer a free drink.
Speaker 2: Oh you may be right, kitty, but uh, how much
you can't do?
Speaker 4: But can't you do something?
Speaker 6: Matt?
Speaker 7: Talk to him, hurry him out of town? Take away
his gun?
Speaker 2: Kitty? Can he use your head? I can't do that.
The boy hasn't done.
Speaker 7: Anything, but and you're just gonna sit around and wait
till it does.
Speaker 3: I don't want trouble anymore than you do, Kitty, But
the boy has to grow up sometimes.
Speaker 7: You men have a fine idea.
Speaker 4: What's grown up? Just settle it with a gun.
Speaker 7: Just shoot somebody, anybody that's growing up.
Speaker 4: In this town.
Speaker 2: Kitty, will you listen to me?
Speaker 3: I know it's hard for you, but that doesn't change
the way things are.
Speaker 2: I'll do what I can. I'll talk to him, but
I can't.
Speaker 7: You can't take his gun away, all right, Matt, I
only hope he doesn't grow up just in time to
get himself killed.
Speaker 2: Why I can't do me?
Speaker 5: Kitty read him out some beer. She didn't what.
Speaker 1: Were you doing there?
Speaker 5: Just as.
Speaker 6: Doc?
Speaker 2: But I was in the back room. Miss Kitty come in.
Speaker 6: There wasn't no way for me to come out once
she started going on what you're doing?
Speaker 5: And there wasn't no way for me to keep him
doing neither. She really gave me a hard time, did
you she did?
Speaker 7: It was too hard on him, he said, well, kitty, oh, yes, well, now, kiddy,
now you've uh, you've got to realize.
Speaker 6: You know, Matt has a job. He isn't a tough job,
and he can't take time to nurse me. And every
young puppa comes.
Speaker 7: Oh, you man are all alike. Just leave them alone.
Give me a gun and leave me alone. It'll all
be settled one way or another. Coming in, I'm afraid
he wouldn't. I'll stand him away from the barm. Maybe
that'll keep trouble away for a little home. Billy, Hello, Billy,
you're not doing miss kitty come out of here and
sit down.
Speaker 6: Huh, thank you? I trust you spent a comfortable night, Yeah, Billy,
thank you.
