• Bart Maverick : My pappy always told me, "Any man who needs to make out a will just isn't spending his money properly."

• Bart Maverick : Doc, help me!

  Doc Holliday : Alright, I'll help you. I could be a character witness for you.

  Bart Maverick : Oh, fine! That'll just get me tarred and feathered!

  Bart Maverick : [narrating]  Lots of people lose things like wallets or watches, maybe. I'd even lost a few poker games. But these two chaps have lost something a bit larger and they're pretty upset about it. The big fellow is Tim Hardesty. He's a Wells Fargo agent for Cut Bank, Kansas. The well-dressed gentleman is Amos Skinner. And if he looks like a railroad president, it's because he is one. Yeah, Skinner and Hardesty had lost something. They've lost a... train. Engine, tender, express car, coach and diner vanished... without a trace. Ridiculous, you say? I'd have said so, too. Except for one thing. When that train left Whipsaw at noon, heading west, I was on it.

  Doc Holliday : We just couldn't bear thinking of you walking all that way by yourself.

  Modesty Blaine : No. After all, it just wouldn't be right. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for us.

  Doc Holliday : Well, 'twas all our fault.

  Bart Maverick : Uh, the ten-thousand dollars that Brady just gave me would have nothing to do with your friendship.

  Doc Holliday : Well, it just might have helped hasten the decision.

  Modesty Blaine : Yes, it did.

  Doc Holliday : Shall we?
