:10:28
Yay, though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,

:10:30
I will fear no evil,
for thou art with me.

:10:35
Thy rod and thy staff,
they comfort me...

:10:39
Why did you give up practice
in dentistry and take up gambling?

:10:42
What's the word they use?
Irrelevant?

:10:45
I'll rule on that, Mr. Holiday.
You answer the question.

:10:49
Was it because of your illness?
:10:51
Partially.
:10:52
Or as your
growing reputation as a killer?

:10:56
No. I found there was more gold
in people's pockets than in their mouths.

:11:01
Does that satisfy you?
:11:02
Eminently.
:11:04
What was your reason
:11:06
for volunteering your services
as a gunfighter to the Earp family?

:11:11
I owed Wyatt Earp a favor.
:11:14
You mean you killed a man you didn't
even know as a favor to another?

:11:19
I killed a lot of men I didn't know
between 1861 and 1865.

:11:22
Nobody said anything about it then.
:11:24
War, Mr. Holliday.
:11:25
Well, I never did
understand the difference.

:11:27
How many men have you killed
as a civilian?

:11:29
Oh, I don't know.
Somewhere between 18 and 25.

:11:33
I presume they were all quarrels
over your gentlemanly honor.

:11:37
No. Over money.
That's my profession.

:11:41
Are you finished?
:11:42
No. No, not quite.
:11:45
Then you admit
that you accepted a deputy's badge

:11:49
and used it as a cloak to cover
an act of homicide as a favor?

:11:53
I accepted a deputy's badge
to uphold the law against lke Clanton

:11:58
who was threatening it
with a gang of gunmen...
