Ben Cartwright : [referring to Todd] You can't keep him behind bars. He's not a criminal! He's a 16-year-old kid!
Sheriff Roy Coffee : With a 16-year-old gun. Ben, do you realize if that kid was just a split second faster, you wouldn't be around anymore to watch either one of them grow any older?
Eric 'Hoss' Cartwright : He's right, Pa. A sidewinder is just as poisonous the day he's hatched as when he's full-grown.
Ben Cartwright : Well, we're not talking about sidewinders, we're talking about a boy. Besides, the fangs of this one have already been pulled.
[Ben drops Todd's gun on Roy's desk]
Sheriff Roy Coffee : And I aim to see that he don't grow another set.
