    The hat gets destroyed and Teaspoon talks to the boys about Pride versus Self Respect.

  • Ike hears Sam talking about the massacre in town. He runs off. Teaspoon & Buck chase him. He runs right into the man who killed the woman in the massacre. His name turns out to be Bart Nickerson.

  • (We assume ) Ike finally tells Sam what he saw because he arrests him.

  • Sam plans to bring Ike with him to Blue Creek to testify against Nickerson. It is well established that it is a long way to Blue Creek. Sam send two of his deputies to the station to guard Ike.


  • Boys & Deputies are around station when bad guys ride in.

  • Lots of shooting. One deputy killed the other badly injured. Ike decides to ride off alone for Blue Creek. The other boys and Lou decide to go with him. Happy little scene with the lines “They came for me.” “Then they came for us…”

  • The boys all ride off.


  • The next morning Teaspoon explains to Sam what happened. Sam takes Nickerson to Blue Creek in a wagon.


  • We see the famous credits riding scene

  • The boys arrive at Johnson’s Cabin. Buck smells manure and determines that it is 2 hours old… I love Buck but come on!!! Anyway…

  • No one is around. Lou finds Johnson (we assume it is Johnson) tied up near the cabin. She cuts the saddle from the horses standing nearby.

  • Kid sends Ike into the cabin for safety. The bad guys are in there and take him prisoner holding a knife to his throat. His hands are tied and he is forced onto a horse while the boys stand and watch.

  • The bad guys try to mount but thanks to clever Lou they fall from their horses.

  • Ike is rescued. They spot more bad guys on the horizon. Cody is determined to be better at distance than Jimmy (duh!) and is left behind to cover their escape. This is the scene where Cody says. “I love you too Jimmy…”


  • The mountain men (bad guys) are soon close on their tail again.


    Sam has arrived in Blue Creek and is worried about the boys.


  • Buck’s horse falls and he is forced to double up with Kid. (lucky Kid...).

  • More chase sequence.

  • Soon the boys become trapped in some sort of cavern. The are forced to take cover behind a fallen log. It becomes a stand off. There is a funny bad guy scene about not trusting your money in a bank.

  • They decide Kid is the best climber(duh!) and he is sent off up the hill. Jimmy tells him not to be a hero. Kid answers that he is no hero… (sorry Kid it was in your character description) Anyway there is a very ‘cute butt’ scene as Kid climbs the cliff so no big loss. Kid uses the Beckworth gun that Jimmy just had to bring along. He scares away the bad guys long enough for Ike and the others to ride off.


  • Sam watches as Ike, Buck, Jimmy, and Lou ride into town. He asks about the others and is very worried. Ike and Jimmy go into the jail and face off with Nickerson through the cell bars.

  • Ike is put into another cell to keep him safe.


  • Sam takes Jimmy Lou and Buck out to dinner.

  • On the way Buck “accidentally” bumps into a woman. He helps her carry her packages.

  • Jimmy and Lou argue about how Jimmy doesn’t seem too upset about the others being missing. Jimmy yells at her, she cries but tries to cover it up.


  • Ike (in the jail) is slightly intimidated by Nickerson’s ravings about how it was his fault the woman got killed.


  • Lou Jimmy and Sam poke at their dinner, in fact Jimmy seems to be the only one actually eating. Cody and Kid finally show up. Lou punches Kid in the shoulder to cover up how happy she is to see him.

  • Sam gets a note saying that the bad guys have Buck and if Ike testifies Buck dies.


  • They decide to tell Ike what has happened and let him decide what to do.

  • Ike tells the others that he watched his parents get killed and didn’t say anything. He will testify anyway.

  • Nickerson tries to intimidate Ike again. Kid promises Ike that they will find Buck before the trial.

  • The boys search for Buck near the court house.



    Ike stalls as long as possible but finally must take the stand. Lou sees some funny kind of signaling going on. We see that Buck in tied up in the water tower his a gun pointed at him. Lou is able to warn Cody in time, so he shoots the guy.

  • Buck gets to the court house just in time and tells Ike to testify.

  • Ike points to Nickerson.
