1883 - Season 1 Edit

A big one.

A bite will kill you.

A good horse for war, that one.

A good remuda of horses and plenty of beef,

A joke on top of a joke.

A le a le a le... [laughs]

A little more animal.

A little piece of you dies with them.

A little warning.

A lot better after this day.

A lot of people are gonna tell you that.

A lot of tracks here with no shoes.

A patient man.

A pig is one of the nastiest animals on this planet.

A refund.

A right choice for themselves.

A river'll do that to ya.

A son I adore, and a daughter I envy...

A there will damn sure be a gunfight,

A traffic jam in the middle of the river.

A woman's goal is never ride a train again

A word that sticks.

A year later, I was born.

A yellow and a buckskin.

Abilene.

About how dangerous this journey will be.

About how that watch works, amigo.

About how you'd expect.

Absolutely feral.

Add a cook to the list.

Add this to your list of reasons.

Adios, my friend.

After a long night.

After a night or two without you,

After all they seen you go through.

After we got sick of having our horses and cattle stolen.

Again.

Ah, come on.

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

Aim for the horse. You'’ll never hit the rider.

Ain't all I want to do now.

Ain't changed our mind yet, Captain.

Ain't enough wagons to circle anymore.

Ain't enough.

Ain't gonna do it.

Ain't got nuthin better to do.

Ain't in too deep.

Ain't much water around here.

Ain't my first trip through the plains.

Ain't never seen it from you.

Ain't no damn concrete 'round here.

Ain't no doctor can help her.

Ain't no other way.

Ain't no snake gonna curl up next to me.

Ain't nobody got to starve.

Ain't talking about the cow.

Ain't the first time I seen it.

Alexandria, Daria?

Alina.

All I ask, have a ceremony.

All I got's my word and gonna see it through,

All of these birds...

All of you are going to learn.

All right, any more?

All right, come on, son.

All right, ma'am.

All right, ma'am...

All right, we all need to mount up.

All right, we'll gather up this herd.

All right, y'all get in line,

All right!

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right. All right.

All right. Colton: Yes, sir.

All right. Speak.

All smell the same to me, but I ain't a bull.

All the goddam way.

All the things folks dump at the river bank.

All the trouble I'll ever need is right outside that door.

All the way to the ocean.

All those people from Europe...

All those things seem to be the opposite of life.

All you gotta do is feed the furnace.

All you'll remember is the kill.

Almost fucking shot you. [laughing]

Already did.

Always has been.

An abstract thought that pertains to control.

An Apache scout told me once...

And a bad... bad time to tell it.

And a child when I'm worried.

And a cook.

And a few your worst nightmare couldn't muster...

And a log.

And an arrow in the liver is for certain.

And barely whispered...

And be weary of their doomed decisions.

And begging their way on a boat for home shocks me.

And behind us was a cliff.

And boil it first.

And bring all their rules with it.

And bring new life.

And built sod houses,

And can almost taste its maker.

And carelessness was contagious.

And catch us before we leave Kansas.

And clouds are alive and they decide to let it rain.

And come across a fair amount of these immigrant wagons:

And cowboys.

And don't wander off.

And each Heaven is unique.

And even if her liver does heal, sepsis is in her.

And every choice has fangs. Do you understand me?

And every day after.

And every one of them'’s going to know what happened here

And everywhere, treasures.

And exploring each other with their tongues.

And fathers of these people.

And float it across the fucking river?

And from way up there...

And generals on the hill

And God is the land.

And green grass to your hips...

And guard my son with your life.

And he can use your eyes to see the world.

And he don't look like you.

And he said you can't see me."

And he was banging horse shoes.

And he's eyeing her right back.

And he's gonna chase you down the street

And he's not a fucking blacksmith.

And her husband don't look too fun to fight.

And how they protect us and better our lives

And how to avoid saying or doing things

And how to love 'em.

And I ain't joking,

And I ain't letting one bit go to waste.

And I ain't trying to get in another one.

And I ain't winterin' at no fort.

And I believe in our daughter.

And I can't think of a better place to learn to ride.

And I can't understand why cuz I won't be here

And I could see color again.

And I could see him.

And I couldn't wait for another.

And I did.

And I did.

And I don'’t see no cattle.

And I don't regret it.

And I don't trust them for making

And I don't want you doing it here.

And I fucking shot her.

And I gotta find that place fast.

And I had to smell it all the way here.

And I know the accent.

And I looked behind me, the wilderness was gone.

And I loved it...

And I mean good hands.

And I mean us.

And I saw him.

And I sure as hell ain't going back.

And I thought he was a fool.

And I thought...

And I was ready for it.

And I was right to question.

And I will surrender nothing to the pain.

And I'’ll help you use it.

And I'm already dead.

And I'm gonna sit on the beach, and let her see it.

And I'm happier for it.

And I'm hundred fifty a month, plus the freight home.

And I'm not scared.

And if he'’s hunting them, he'’ll find them.

And if I don't know what you've become.

And if it heals, she's got another week maybe.

And if they do, you remember me.

And if they find us they're gonna hang us

And if we don'’t accept it now

And if we stay around here, they're gonna hang us.

And if you are sleeping on the ground that warmth is you.

And if you decide to do it again...

And if you don't know how to ride,

And it breaks my heart.

And it don't stop until you do what I say

And it is skunk ugly.

And it meant nothing to me.

And it sunk them in me.

And it was beautiful.

And it'’s gonna cut us in two,

And it's been bad from the beginning.

And just like that,

And lay down beside it and die in peace.

And leaving with him on Friday.

And lost a girl to an Injun at the same time.

And love...

And made me color blind.

And maybe it is your fault...

And meet the Marshal.

And my decision's west.

And my dreams for this life burn inside me

And no evidence the human race still exists.

And no one's gonna stop him from following it.

And not a gunfight.

And not to go anywhere alone.

And now John was the only hope our family has to reach Heaven.

And now there's gonna be a school.

And now we leave at least that many behind...

And once you get to Wyoming?

And our freedom was gone...

And over mountains?

And pray.

And protect you...

And raising babies, and sweating over a garden,

And redefining our meaning of unknown.

And riding the wild country, I thought they deserved a spot.

And robbed my child of a future with him.

And run our horses to the fort like their tail'’s on fire.

And send you wherever you want to go.

And she can't go.

And she doesn't have that.

And she dreamed that I was gonna die on a battlefield

And she has outlived us all.

And she was about to kill another.

And she'’s the light of my life and she'’s my soul...

And slow as these folks move,

And somebody needs to ration their food

And somehow see it clearer.

And soon we leave the edge behind.

And still we're dying.

And swallowing every dream you've ever had,

And take one look in them big eyes you got

And talk about all these wagons heading north,

And teach 'em something, Captain.

And tell me the unknown is what scares you.

And that comes with a lot of worry.

And that kid does something...

And that'’s with just the three of us going after the thieves.

And that's all.

And that's fine.

And that's what I'm gonna do.

And that's where you build the ranch.

And the carriage merely stops or swerves.

And the Clear Fork is where civilization ends.

And the death is working its way up.

And the dream is coming true...

And the fantasy of right and wrong.

And the farms which have tamed it into a resource.

And the good memories will return.

And the grass and the dirt

And the Indians ain't as tame as the papers say they is.

And the journey was the necessary,

And the land is free again.

And the ones that do say they can't ride.

And the people belong to this land.

And the person staring back at me, I don't recognize.

And the skill to drive it, otherwise...

And the sky is your imagination.

And the wagons would have a chance.

And the water from the creek over there all mixed together.

And the way you can tell it'’s infected is if you have a fever.

And the whole of Texas spread out before me.

And the wolf has no interest in your dreams.

And the woman was magnificent.

And the world didn't end.

And the wrong direction...

And then a family?

And then back talk your mother for saving you?

And then come back for all of us.

And then we make a family.

And then what are we gonna do?

And there ain't no wall around that reservation, neither.

And there are demons everywhere.

And there are no storms.

And they ain't camped five miles from town.

And they don't even know if it's worth the journey.

And they have all ended up just like this one.

And they never come true.

And they were looking for it...

And they'll die of thirst if we head west.

And this is all a dream.

And this, that's for the bank.

And tragedy is contagious in this place.

And tragedy's next opportunity to ravage what's left of us...

And trust me, that crusty bastard over there?

And uncaring this world can be.

And warriors don't cry.

And watch its hooves sparking off the rocks.

And we ain't even left Texas yet.

And we ain't gonna lay her to rest here.

And we are gonna give '’em the fucking business.

And we both know it.

And we can pray.

And we don't know if that decision

And we earn our keep.

And we know absolutely nothing of it.

And we will let her look at this world

And we will lie to her, and we will tell her she'’s fine.

And we'’re gonna bring their horses back, and scalps.

And we'll pick the rest up later.

And what you could become.

And when I ran out of bullets I killed with my sword.

And when my sword broke I killed with my boots and bare hands.

And when the devil comes to rip that love from you,

And when they come back here and they find this?

And when they find their families dead

And when they see you coming 'round the bend,

And when you get to the Indian country...whew!

And when...

And where it runs shallow it's boggy.

And wild cattle and a man who loves me.

And wind is the world laughing at us.

And with all those folks afoot,

And woman to woman you'd better be careful.

And yellow hair.

And yet... I've seen it, and understand it even less

And you ain't dying.

And you ain't got beans or coffee

And you can be with her again.

And you can call me her name

And you can visit her any time you want.

And you do what we tell you don't do.

And you get to live again.

And you get to say goodbye.

And you let them.

And you look like a man who plans.

And you seem to be that.

And you watch the people do all the other things you don't do.

And you won't be ready in the morning.

And you'’re gonna die for it.

And you'll know what I mean.

And you're not a carpenter,

And you're the perfect size: big enough to be a prize,

And your boys will talk to you again.

And your daughter stopped it.

Animals will be more ready to get in the river then.

Another future awaited them, and it lay in the abyss

Another option is...

Any chance you saw those cattle?

Anyone that wants to join me to the fort, saddle up. Ha!

Anyone wants to ride with me is welcome.

Anyone who passes here is gonna think we did it.

Apple don't fall far.

Are the ones in your heart.

Are we going somewhere different?

Are you aware of what he's asking?

Are you fine?

Are you happy?

Arms up.

Arrow clipped it for sure.

As a wife. As a mother.

As far as river crossings go,

As I pondered the new journey before me,

As if death was not the result of accidents and disease,

As if he were already in mourning.

As if I were already gone.

As if I'd walked to the campfire and tried to eat it.

As if new rules applied to time and space above me.

As if the land and I had struck a deal.

As if their lack of self esteem or will power

As it tears into you, and you let it.

As my father would say, the one good thing about problems

As the land wages war on itself, seeking the answer...

As they map a path for the railroad north and east.

As this boy, he's looking right at me.

As though gravity only applies to the sky

As though I was born on this journey.

As you can clearly see.

As you pay to mine.

Ask about what's this sound and this animal...

Ask him if he has more.

At Gettysburg.

At least they'll be alive to do it.

At least we have a path to follow.

At night if it's cold they will look for warmth,

At some point they gotta learn to do things for themselves.

At water you wait to cross

Away from our water source.

Awoo.

Baby, we'’ll take you, it'’s okay.

Babysitting their goddam cattle.

Back to work.

Bandits gonna plague you all the way to Nebraska

Bandits.

Bandits.

Bang.

Barely recognize me either.

Be back in the afternoon.

Be gone.

Be right back.

Be sad. Miss him.

Beauty is meant to be admired.

Because everybody in this town is gonna be looking for us,

Because here doesn't care.

Because his dirty hand made the city.

Because I can't replace you.

Because I want you to know it.

Because if you ride into that army fort

Because my tornado was hell.

Because our tracks lead right to '’em.

Because she has a home she never wants to leave.

Because that's all the world wants from you.

Because there was no need.

Because they never ask.

Because we're in it already.

Because when they run out, they're coming after my food.

Because you decided to put it all in one fuckin' wagon.

Because you fight against it when you travel.

Because you lose your food I must give you mine?

Becoming a woman out here.

Been digging for an hour and it'’s barely a foot deep.

Been in Texas six days, you already forgot how to speak.

Before it's ruined.

Before it's settled.

Before long, you can't hear the bombs over the screams...

Before they are buried.

Before they run away with you!

Before we get to '’em.

Before you make that statement.

Behind every bush along this creek.

Believe me when I say, I know the difference, Major.

Beside you scream over the bombs and rifles.

Besides, there's a few widows among them now.

Best I could hope is maybe some of them would follow me,

Best you can hope for is that she wakes

Bet you prefer it too.

Better for them.

Better get to it.

Better they die up here

Better, follow daddy'’s tracks and catch up to him.

Between 'em out here.

Between here and West Texas?

Beyond him, cowboys and cattle pushed toward us,

Beyond it is no man's land and that's where we're going...

Beyond our control out here.

Beyond the one you are living.

Big boulder up against the trunk.

Bite into it.

Bleed into its dirt.

Both.

Bought cattle and tried to scratch a life from this place.

Break your camps and hitch your teams.

Breakfast is ready.

Buffalo.

But crossing the Brazos taught me there was no deal.

But death was its own disease.

But don't give me lip about the horses,

But Ennis said this is bandit country

But failure isn't what drove him.

But grief...

But half these folks ain't gonna make it,

But he doesn't speak English.

But he's about to ask her.

But here I am... living without them.

But here, there can be no mistakes.

But how can that be?

But how do they decide where to rain?

But I ain't going to Denver.

But I ain't here and I know it ain't east.

But I ain't losing you to a river.

But I bet it don't look like this.

But I can't say they started it.

But I chose to find out.

But I didn't know to take his name.

But I don't mind the song.

But I don't understand the concept.

But I kissed a few boys when I was your age too,

But I know it's true when I say it.

But I know when you sleep: you sleep now.

But I suppose I'd be sad too

But I wasn't...

But I...

But I... I know what to do...

But I'’ll tell you this...

But I'd seen too much of this world...

But I'd sure hate you don't have it when we find out.

But I'll say this

But I'll tell you what we won't find:

But I'm a woman.

But I'm asking you now.

But if anybody here fancy himself a gunman...

But if there is a God,

But if you pull your pistol in this town, mister...

But if you want to stay out of a gunfight,

But in this moment, with the man I love,

But in this place,

But it had never touched me.

But it'll keep a rope off your neck if things go sideways.

But it's a week's drive on a wagon.

But know this: that in seven generations

But no rules.

But not reckless.

But nothing washes the world away

But now, I'm sleeping on the edge of civilization,

But of all the perils awaiting us,

But she made me promise she'd die first, so...

But she'’s young and she'’s strong

But she's young.

But someone should say a prayer

But that is not today.

But that little piece of him is still inside you.

But that would mean the sky thinks

But the plains are littered with bones.

But the Plains are not for home building,

But the summer's are rich and a man who plans can thrive.

But the thought is terrifying.

But the way she loves...

But there are moments where I feel we are more.

But there'll be rules there too.

But they can.

But they were born of this world and belong in it.

But this is hard to beat.

But those phrases were invented by professors at universities

But thought better of it.

But time'’s the only thing that can stitch the inside.

But to me it means magic.

But watching Sam kill was like watching a lion

But we ain't got no chance without you.

But we need to get moving

But we'll lose half of them if we let them emigrants do it.

But we're the ones you think about

But what if they do, James?

But when your love dies...

But with that wagon, it will take a week.

But you are a white woman, so I don't understand.

But you better start because most of your food

But you can always look up and see the flags.

But you don't need wagons to see them.

But you leave the hating to me.

But you pay about as much attention to the rules of nature

But you trust them.

But you will buy me gifts.

But you won't ever love her like I do.

But you won't remember the kick in a week.

But you, uh...

But you... You have money.

But you'’d better get back to it.

But you're alive.

But you're going to learn.

But you're gonna have to lead 'em.

But...

By a different tornado than I was,

By being the best warrior of all.

By God, I knew it. I knew you was a girl.

By God, I will find a place.

By God, you'd better not stop.

By the end of the battle, I...

By the river, but instead we're listening to this.

By the time I get these misfits moving

By the time we get to the territories,

By the wagon boss and my husband.

By who?!

Can I do it?

Can I get some help here?

Can I ride?

Can I trust you to stay here?

Can track the progress of the battle.

Can we come back for the things we leave?

Can you do that to my dress?

Can you help us ferry folks across?

Can you sit up?

Can you tell me your name?

Can'’t run.

Can'’t wait to join with the land and run us off or kill us.

Can't alter the course of her life

Can't believe in heaven then be sad when people go there.

Can't do much of nothing for themselves.

Can't lead people I don't trust.

Can't mess with an outfit's cook.

Can't protect yourself.

Can't tell your men from theirs.

Captain.

Captain...

Careful with what?

Carol: Awmo study the river... Margaret: Oh no...

Carol: Look at you! Margaret: Oh my God.

Carve one out for the cook first.

Carve out that stallion and get him caught.

Cash.

Catching up on your beauty sleep, I guess.

Cattle and horses ain't the only thing they steal out here.

Cattle if we can find 'em.

Cattle thieves gathered the herd.

Cause I'd like some milk.

Cause that's how fast he is.

Ch ch ch ch... [clicks tongue]

Ch Ch...

Chargin' in here like a bunch of fucking bandits.

Charlie: No, just added.

Children can have that effect.

Choice is yours...

Choking me by the neck.

Cholera will run the lot of them.

Choosing freedom over the burden of the pot.

Chopped down chest high by bullets.

Church picnic then, maybe.

Circle the goddamn wagons!

Claire.

Close your eyes, son.

Closed my eyes...

Clouds are filled with water.

Clyde Barker!

Color's back too. That's good.

Colton: All the way to Oregon with them?

Colton: Come on, cow. Hup, hup, hup.

Colton: Come on.

Colton: Hup hup!

Colton: Wasn't a day on this drive I was prettier than you.

Comanche! Kiowa! Kickapoo! Scalps! For sale today!

Come across any barbed wire yet?

Come here.

Come on in for a shower and bath.

Come on, baby, you come with me.

Come on, baby.

Come on, cow. Hup, hup.

Come on, cows.

Come on, cows. Hya, hya!

Come on, Joe.

Come on, let's go.

Come on, move, move, move!

Come on, son.

Come on, we're going to push it to the water.

Come on!

Come on! Hey!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. [clicks tongue]

Come on. Hup, hup, hup.

Come on. Let's work.

Come ready.

Come ride on the buckboard.

Come up from the west now heading north.

Come up, come up, come up!

Come with us.

Committing suicide ain'’t get anyone to Oregon.

Cookie thought you might want a swig or two of this.

Cookie: Line up!

Cookie: Now!

Cookie's gone.

Cool heads cross rivers.

Cool summers and mild winters.

Could be.

Couple a weeks.

Course I do.

Cover his ears.

Cover. Help me get her in the wagon.

Cow don't care how it sounds.

Cowboy: Woop! Woop! Woop!

Cry yourself blind.

Cuz the journey's over.

Daddy!

Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy!

Daddy.

Daddy.

Dammit.

Damn bugger bucked me off.

Damn cow been a dart since we rounded her up.

Damn it!

Damn right government can tell you who to love.

Dance with the girls.

Dang it.

Deal.

Death hides in the creek beds...

Death is everywhere.

Decided easy pickins weren't so easy.

Deer. I see it.

Denver would be wise.

Denver. We gotta turn back.

Depends on when they go in the ground, ma'am.

Deputies, Wyoming Stock Growers Association.

Did you have fun, mama?

Didn'’t hurt at all yesterday.

Didn't work how?

Didn't work.

Digging into my underarms.

Dirt? When will they be dirt?

Disconnected.

Do I hide now, mama?

Do I look scared to you?

Do I still have a daughter?

Do I still have a family?

Do I?

Do it again.

Do it again.

Do it outside of earshot of the damn camp.

Do not let your children ride on the buckboard,

Do not touch it.

Do not walk in it.

Do something!

Do you have a wife?

Do you need anything?

Do you really want to?

Do you remember it?

Do you see it?

Do you speak English?

Do you trust him?

Do you want to go to Denver?

Do your best to stay still.

Doan's is a week's ride.

Does anybody speak English?

Does daddy know?

Doesn't do that either.

Doing exactly as I say.

Don'’t do that.

Don'’t have to deal with them right away.

Don'’t he know we don'’t know where the hell we'’re goin'’?

Don'’t let her throw it away.

Don'’t let your mouth start a fight your pistol can'’t finish.

Don't bother flirting with me.

Don't come out. You hear me?

Don't do that.

Don't do that.

Don't drink it.

Don't get caught up in the brush with one.

Don't get mad.

Don't go nowhere alone, okay?

Don't have to get angry about it.

Don't hide from it.

Don't just sit there shaking, are there any more?

Don't just stand there. Stop him.

Don't know any happy ones?

Don't know anything about this place.

Don't know how his horses drug this around on dry ground.

Don't know why them folks wanna go home.

Don't know.

Don't leave us, Captain.

Don't let any of that bullshit spill in here.

Don't let anyone tell you there is.

Don't let them reach your horse.

Don't let those traders swindle you.

Don't like to get up that early. [laughs]

Don't look back.

Don't make any sense.

Don't matter.

Don't recall anyone forcing me...
