:25:01
I couldn't lose a hand.
:25:02
10 times I tried to quit,
:25:04
10 times they made me stay.
:25:06
I have won this.
:25:08
This is an escritura.
:25:09
That's spanish for deed.
:25:11
I won that at poker, too.
:25:14
It's a mere 100 acres in Tejas.
:25:17
You, 25.
:25:17
Me, 75.
:25:20
What do you say about that, brother Jacob?
:25:24
Tejas ain't even in the
united states, Nathan.

:25:27
So what?
:25:28
Well, they don't speak
English and their catholics.

:25:29
We have 100 acres, son, who cares?
:25:32
I've made up my mind.
:25:33
I'm going with Jedediah Smith.
:25:37
You see that furry creature?
:25:38
That's the kind of man Jedediah Smith wants.
:25:41
But who cares beans?
:25:41
We found our fortune in Tejas.
:25:43
I want to see the Pacific Ocean.
:25:45
And then what?
:25:46
I don't know.
:25:49
I've got a bird in the hand in Tejas.
:25:52
You're after the will o' the wisp out
west with adventurers and criminals.

:25:56
Well, I say we stick together.
:25:58
Yeah, well, why should I stick with you?
:26:01
There's a reason why our
father gave you the grunt

:26:03
work and me the precise
measurements of wheelmaking.

:26:06
It's 'cause you never had a head except
for dreaming, and here you go again.

:26:14
Are you coming or not?
:26:16
I thought of our mother
vexed by her perfidious sons,

:26:20
always consoling herself with
the notion that we had each other,

:26:23
but we didn't allow her
even that much comfort.

:26:26
I'll be leaving from the steamboat
within the hour if you change your mind.

:26:35
Nathan went south, and I went west.
:26:44
I put my best foot forward
and bought a new old suit of

:26:47
clothes for the occasion of
meeting the great Jedediah Smith.
