Marshall Valient
- [after being told of his brothers losing their money, gambling, he & Spanky go to the room. Marshal investigates & Simmons offers a game, of one hand to win back the lost money. Spanky caught him trying to cheat]
- Marshall Valient: I might have beginners luck.
- Marshall Valient: [Sees Buckwheat hiding under the table] By the way, Spanky, weren't you asking me if I could use another slave?
- Spanky Leonard: Yes 'em, Mr. Marsh.
- Marshall Valient: Well, who is he?
- Spanky Leonard: A friend of mine.
- Marshall Valient: Is he big and strong?
- Spanky Leonard: Not so big. But, pretty strong.
- Marshall Valient: Could he shoe a horse?
- Spanky Leonard: No. But he could shoe a pony.
- Marshall Valient: How long do you think it would take you to get him here?
- Buckwheat: [pops out from under the table] Here I is!
- Marshall Valient: Well, that didn't take very long.
- Spanky Leonard: He's pretty fast!
- Spanky Leonard: I sure wish I could go with ya. I could shine your shoes and help carry your gun.
- Marshall Valient: Now, you haven't forgotten what I told you, have you?
- Spanky Leonard: Help... take care of the plantation, protect the women and children, especially Miss Louella. You sure like her a lot, don't you?
- Marshall Valient: I sure do.
- Spanky Leonard: But, what else am I supposed to do? Oh, yes! Make Buckwheat take his bath.
- Marshall Valient: Is that all?
- Spanky Leonard: And take mine too.
- Marshall Valient: [Marshall Valiant swears in in two new Confederate members] Do you solemnly swear Allegiance to the Confederate States of America, and do you promise honor, uphold and defend their rights?
- [both say "I do!", in unison]
- Marshall Valient: What you mean is, if your friends go to war, you gotta go with 'em or else you won't have any friends. Is that it?
- Spanky Leonard: Well, that's what it looks like to me.
- Marshall Valient: Say, you know, Spanky, I hate to admit it, but, I think you're right. Things shouldn't be that way and there's no sense in rushing into trouble, but, you're absolutely right.
- Spanky Leonard: If you have any more troubles, Mr. Marsh, you come to me. I'll help you out 'em.
