That’s how each and every one of us in here survived that whip. Thats how we all are alive right now - we got our ghost back.
(SILENCE)
LEVI
The Key to no pain. The Ghost. How `bout we all bend one last
elbow. Fore that storm hits.
(BASS picks up a BOTTLE from the BAR - pours a shot into a GLASS as GRANT pours a shot in GUS’S glass then takes one to LEVI)
LEVI
To all of us finding our ghost. Setting it free. To the
Cowboys.
(All the men raise their GLASSES to drink. THUNDER ROLL. SILAS comes back in SOAKING wet. He takes his JACKET off shaking off the RAIN)
SILAS
Hammered three blocks of wood solid. Shouldn't open no more.
Didn’t see the other two horses. Two must have gotten out and ran pass morris road. If they did - they out in the plains by now - wont see em again until after the storm. Was able to get three back in the stable. Two brown - one big white one.
(SILAS walks behind the BAR)
GUS
It’s time we get to Mexico Levi. You promised me I’d be free.
YOU PROMISED ME NOTHING WAS GONNA HAPPEN!!! LEVI
Quiet down Gussy!
GUS
This is taking too long - you promised me! Everyone laugh
at Frank, Gus... a no good thief, he will never be good enough Everyone tease - laugh....
(LEVI slowly stand walking over to GUS. BASS keeps his SHOTGUN aimed at him)
LEVI ...It what’n your fault Gussy...
