Thundering Trails
1943
(Sam Brooke is shot during a hold-up) Johnny Brooke, Stony's brother: Where'd they get you, Dad? Captain Sam Brooke, Stony's father: Where they have to get most Rangers - in the back!
(The Three Mesquiteers hear gunfire) Stony Brooke: That must be the party we were invited to!
(The ex-Rangers see a sign reading "Monroe County Police - John Brooke, Captain Commanding" over their old office) Tucson Smith: They moved in pretty fast, didn't they? Stony Brooke: Looks like they're giving Johnny featured billing.
(The Mesquiteers ride to Ben Walker's ranch to urge him not to pay protection money) Judge Morgan: Looks like that three-man jury is going to give us a bad verdict. Mollison: Want me to handle the case, Judge? Judge Morgan: Yes - it does need special handling. In this case, we'll overrule the usual procedure. Ben Walker is going to be raided before he refuses. Mollison: I ain't particular - before or after!
(The Mesquiteers, not knowing Walker has been bushwhacked, wait in jail for him to clear them of robbery charges) Stony Brooke: Has Walker shown up yet? Jailer: Nope. I told you I'd let you know the minute he does. Lullaby Joslin: He sure picked a good time to play hide-and-go-seek.
(Deputy Sheriff Cantrell accuses the Mesquiteers of murdering Walker to cover-up the stagecoach robbery) Lullaby Joslin: That figuring just about leaves us out on a limb. Stony Brooke: Yeah - and dangling from ropes!
(with the help of the jailer's pet crow, the Three Mesquiteers escape) Jailer: Where'd they go? Eight Ball, a crow: They went that-a-way, Sheriff!
(examining chewed wood found where the murderer waited for Walker) Lullaby Joslin: Fellows, I got it - all we got to do is find the termite who whittles his own toothpicks.
(Lullaby stuffs medicine bottles down his shirt) Stony Brooke: What are you doing? Lullaby Joslin: Doc forgot to pay me for my singing, so I'm taking it out in trade. Stony Brooke: Take one for our *friend*. If he doesn't talk he'll need some pain killer.
