Don Beddoe: Whittaker

Quotes 

• Notch Brice : That one's just bullheaded enough to cause us a little trouble.

  Whittaker : I know.

  Notch Brice : Then why didn't you let me take him?

  Whittaker : 'Cause he hadn't paid for his purchase then. Now, of course, I no longer have any objections.

• Notch Brice : A shooting in broad daylight?

  Whittaker : The more people that see it, the better. There may be one or two other people in town who think that we're running a bluff.

• Whittaker : Got any money? Big money I'm talking about.

  Tonto : Maybe yes and maybe no.

  Whittaker : Cagey cuss, aren't you? Well, here's the deal, town is wide open for outlaws. You can stay as long as you want, the law will never touch you. Provided... you put a bag of gold dust right on this counter the first of every week.

  Tonto : That much wampum.

• Tonto : Me have friend. Me talk to him before decide.

  Whittaker : Fair enough. Tell him that there are plenty of other wanted men who are already enjoying Reedville's healthy climate. There'll be more arriving all the time.

  Notch Brice : Sure, he may meet a lot of old friends here.

  Tonto : My friend always happy to meet outlaw.

• Whittaker : I'd like to see the color of your gold dust first.

  The Lone Ranger : [disguised as Buck Gannon]  There she be, mister. Just as pretty as a little yellow dog.

• Whittaker : I advise you to get along with Notch here, Mr. Gannon. He's my right-hand man and the best in these parts either with his gun or his fists.

  The Lone Ranger : [disguised as Buck Gannon]  Second best, maybe. Not the best.

  Notch Brice : You are, I suppose?

  The Lone Ranger : You're the one that said it, Sonny.

  Notch Brice : I eat half-baked old saddle bums like you for breakfast every morning.

  The Lone Ranger : Ho-ho, maybe that's why you're so big, it's appearin'.
