• Bill Hawks : Are you sure, ma'am, that you haven't seen Flint?

  Annie Griffith : I ain't seen him. I ain't seen him at all. Now git.

  Bill Hawks : We got a long hard ride ahead of us, ma'am. We'd sure appreciate it if we could come in and warm ourselves by your fire.

  Annie Griffith : I ain't got no fire

  [Annie, Charlie and Bill look up to the smoke billowing from the brick chimney, Annie punctuates the air with a rifle shot] 

  Annie Griffith : I ain't got no fire at all. Now git.

  Charlie Wooster : She ain't got no fire.

• Charlie Wooster : Flint McCullough. Damn blast your hide. The Major's been worried sick about you.

  Flint McCullough : He didn't have to. I had very good medicine. Oh Charlie, this is Mrs Griffith.

  Charlie Wooster : Howdy Ma'am

  [He does a double take] 

  Charlie Wooster : McCullough, does the Major know you're dragging her along?

  Annie Griffith : Quit yelling in my ear. Mm.

  Flint McCullough : Thanks a lot, Annie.

  Annie Griffith : Better put that hat back on, might catch cold

  [Flint tips his hat and salutes to her, unable express in words his full appreciation for her nursing] 

• Charlie Wooster : Why ain't people smart like me?

  Major Seth Adams : You know, Charlie, I wonder how I keep forgetting how really smart you are.

  Charlie Wooster : I'd like to know that myself.

  Major Seth Adams : Well, in case you break the point of that shovel, I suggest you use something harder and more pointed. Like your head.

  Charlie Wooster : What what did I say?

  Bill Hawks : Too much.

• Charlie Wooster : I bet wherever he is, he's hip deep in snow this minute.

  Major Seth Adams : It's too early to snow in this country, Charlie.

  Charlie Wooster : Why them Sierra Passes are full of snow. You can't tell me...

  Major Seth Adams : I'm telling you it's too early to snow in this country. And you'd better not say anything different, get all these people in the train panicked, I'll stick your head in the first snowdrift we come to.

  Charlie Wooster : Now, what'd I say?

  Bill Hawks : Too much.

• Charlie Wooster : Sure looks like blood.

  Bill Hawks : Looks like they drug it off that way.

  Charlie Wooster : You ain't thinking McCullough?

  Bill Hawks : I'm thinking it might be. Until we know different.

  Charlie Wooster : I been telling myself all along, if McCullough did come this way and ran into this snow, he'd cut back to the South Pass.

  Bill Hawks : If he was able.

  Charlie Wooster : If he did come this way. It's past midday and, if I know McCullough, he'd be up riding by now.

• Charlie Wooster : Why do you keep saying "IF" we're on McCullough's trail? Ain't you sure?

  Bill Hawks : Aren't you sure?

  Charlie Wooster : No, But I'd feel a lot better if you was. If somebody did come this way and possibly camped here. I'll go look for some water.

• Major Seth Adams : And I've got two smart young boys like you working for me that can't even handle a woman with a shotgun.

  Charlie Wooster : You never saw a woman like her. We wouldn't be much good to you dead.

  Major Seth Adams : You're not much good to me alive either, are you?

• Charlie Wooster : Tell him about that kooked crazy female. If you ask me, Flint would be better off with the Shoshone.

  Major Seth Adams : Female? Shoshone? What the devil are you talking about? Did you get a little snowblind up there?

  Charlie Wooster : I could've, there's enough snow.
