The war's going into a new phase.
:07:04
We're concentrating on Richmond.
And when we take it, we've won.

:07:08
I don't care who wins.
:07:12
You want that herd in Virginia?
:07:14
It'll cost you
five dollars per head extra.

:07:18
I'm authorized to pay you one dollar
a head extra. Not a penny more.

:07:22
That's not Army beef yet, major.
:07:24
Not until I get paid off
on my contract.

:07:26
The contract specifies, in rather
small print, I'll admit:

:07:32
" Payment shall be made when the beef
is delivered to the area...

:07:35
...deemed most urgent
by the commanding general."

:07:39
Which is 30 miles south of Richmond.
:07:42
It's in order. I prepared it myself.
Even specifying the size of the print.

:07:47
Now those steers
are going east, Mr. Kelly.

:07:56
Oh, by Godfrey, that judge.
He thought he had me licked.

:08:00
Licked, Kelly.
:08:02
But he underestimated the man
he was dealing with.

:08:07
I hit that judge...
:08:09
I hit him with a writ of certiorari.
:08:13
It's like a brilliant bolt
out of the black, a tiger springing.

:08:17
A writ of certiorari!
:08:18
Play cards, Steadman.
:08:48
Thousands of them.
:08:56
The boys in blue
are gonna eat beef tonight.

:08:58
And tomorrow and next month.
Till it's coming out of their craws.
