- Glyn McLyntock: Always point this (the wagon tongue) toward the North Star. Then come morning, we'll know where we're going.
- Emerson Cole: I'll be seeing you, Glyn.
- Glyn McLyntock: You'll be seeing me. You'll be seeing me. Everytime you bed down for the night, you'll look back to the darkness and wonder if I'm there. And some night, I will be. You'll be seeing me!
- Tom Hendricks: I got a job for you... arrow wound.
- Cap'n Mello: Where about?
- Glyn McLyntock: Right up here (points to shoulder). Part of the head is still in it.
- Cap'n Mello: Well, if you can point to it, it ain't serious. Just leave it alone, it will fall out by itself in time.
- Glyn McLyntock: So you've decided to stay in Portland.
- Emerson Cole: For a while, then thought I would drift on down to California
- Glyn McLyntock: Still following that star.
- Emerson Cole: Sometimes it's better than having a man with a star following you.
- Jeremy Baile: I don't like that man Cole.
- Glyn McLyntock: Why not?
- Jeremy Baile: I heard Grundy say he was a raider on the Missouri border.
- Glyn McLyntock: Well, lots of people used to raid along the border. Some of 'em decided to change.
- Jeremy Baile: That kind can't change. When an apple's rotten, there's nothing you can do except throw it away or it'll spoil the whole barrel.
- Glyn McLyntock: Well, there's a difference between apples and men.
- Glyn McLyntock: I thought we were out of Cheyenne country. What do you make of that?
- Emerson Cole: Shoshone. Real mean when they wanna be. Lately, they wanna be.
- Jeremy Baile: Good country, Glyn.
- Glyn McLyntock: Yeah, real good country.
- Jeremy Baile: Let's hope we can keep it this way. Missouri and Kansas was like this when I first saw 'em... good, clean. It was the men who came in to steal and kill that changed things. We mustn't let it happen here.
- Trey Wilson: If I were the marrying kind...
- Emerson Cole: Never mix marriage with gambling. Percentage is all against it.
- Emerson Cole: I picked out another star last night. A big fat yellow one hanging over California. It's all full of gold and I'm gonna try and find it.
- Emerson Cole: Are you gonna go out after 'em?
- Glyn McLyntock: Well, that's better than havin' them come in after us.
- Tom Hendricks: Tell your people to make themselves comfortable. Tonight we'll have a get-together. Might have some fiddle music. We'll give you a real Oregon welcome!
- Tom Grundy: My name's Tom Grundy. I run the saloon and the town's only restaurant. It's good food. I got me a "Chinee" cook.
- Emerson Cole: I don't get it. Who're you runnin' away from?
- Glyn McLyntock: A man by the name of Glyn McLyntock.
- Emerson Cole: Well, what happens when he catches up with you?
- Glyn McLyntock: I don't think he's gonna catch up with me. I think he died on the Missouri border.
- Emerson Cole: You're wrong. He'll catch up with ya one of these days.
- Cap'n Mello: She's a right nice little lady. Real "purty" too! You got a husband picked out for her?
- Jeremy Baile: No. I'm afraid she'll do her own pickin'.
- Cap'n Mello: Blow that whistle, Adam. We got wagons. We got wagons comin' to town. Tie her down and let 'er whoop.
- Adam: Yes, Cap'n Mello, I got her down. Got her blowin' fit to bust. Fit to bust!
- [cord breaks]
- Cap'n Mello: What happened?
- Adam: She busted.
- Glyn McLyntock: Mr?
- Trey Wilson: Trey Wilson of San Francisco.
- Glyn McLyntock: Trey Wilson of San Francisco.
- Aunt Tildy: Go about your business, man. What you know about takin' care of little girls?
- Adam: I been takin' care of Captain Mello for 40 years or more.
- Aunt Tildy: Go on! Go on.
- Glyn McLyntock: Sometimes it's good to cry a little.
- Laura Baile: Sometimes it's good to dance a little too.
- Adam: This little dampness keeps down the fever, Miss.
- Aunt Tildy: Take your big clumsy hands away from her. You'll pat all the brains outta her head if you ain't careful.
- Adam: Don't tell me how to do my pattin'. When I pats, I pats gentle - sort of soft and soothin' like. Gonna put her right off to sleep.
- Tom Hendricks: In a day or two, you'll see some of the finest country God ever put on the face of this planet.
- Jeremy Baile: It's what I've always dreamed about, Glyn: a new country where we can make things grow. We'll find a valley where the earth is rich, where the mountains shelter us from the north wind. We'll use the trees that nature has given us, cut a clearing in the wilderness. We'll put in roads - and use the timber to bridge the streams where we have to. Then we'll build our homes, Glyn,; build them *strong* to stand against the winter snows. There'll be a meeting house - a church. We'll have a school. Then we'll put down seedlings. There'll be apples, pears. In a few years, we'll bring fruit to the world such as the eyes of man has never seen.
- Glyn McLyntock: Right handsome fella there, isn't he?
- Marjie Baile: I've seen handsomer.
- Glyn McLyntock: Like me, for instance.
- Marjie Baile: Oh, you're very handsome, in an elderly sort of way.
- Trey Wilson: Pleased to make your acquaintance, ma'am.
- Marjie Baile: I'm Marjie Baile. Shall we dance?
- Trey Wilson: Uh, later, if you please. I have some business with these gentlemen.
- Mrs. Prentiss: Come to the end of the flour. Another week, no more bacon and beans. No more *nothin'* in two weeks.
- Emerson Cole: [to Trey] You're real fast with that gun, kid, but you're soft. Someday it'll kill ya.
- Cap'n Mello: Adam, fetch me another bottle of whiskey. We got company!
- Adam: I done fetched the last bottle we got and you done drunk it empty.
- Shorty: I ain't gonna fight my way over these mountains bringin' food to a lot of settlers just for a grubstake!
- Jeremy Baile: His kind never change.
- Glyn McLyntock: I hope you're wrong, Jeremy. I sure hope you're wrong.
- Emerson Cole: Good to see ya! What brought you into town?
- Glyn McLyntock, Emerson Cole: A real tired horse.
- Emerson Cole: I know.
- Trey Wilson: It's too bad. He seemed like a real nice fella.
- Jeremy Baile: He was - until they found gold.
