- Joe Scarlet: Sorry, Poke. Three lucky tens.
- Poke Tolliver: Excuse me, but...
- Joe Scarlet: Wildcat Revenge, remember? Sevens are wild and you got a one-eyed Jack. Learned it in Kansas.
- [the drovers make up all the rules as they go along, anything to get their hands on cash]
- Poke Tolliver: Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I might have been stranded out there 'til kingdom come. Hard work deserves a reward and Pomeroy K Tolliver pays his debts.
- Rowdy Yates: Oh. we couldn't take no money for fixing the wagon.
- Poke Tolliver: Oh, come, come, Mr Yates, I insist.
- [He has two fistfuls of greenbacks]
- Poke Tolliver: Call it a gift of gratitude from a weary traveller.
- Wishbone: Well, Mr Favor would want us to take no gratitude from strangers. Besides we was glad to do it.
- Gil Favor: You have a nice little scout?
- Clay Forrester: Now you know what they say about haste making waste.
- Georgia: Now ain't that sweet! A proposal! Right in the middle of 3,000 cows! A little violin music and a mixed choir and the setting would be complete.
- Poke Tolliver: Honey, maybe I didn't make myself clear.
- Georgia: Like a window, honey. This is Georgia, remember, the bright-eyed idiot you dumped when you took off with those plates.
- Gil Favor: Well, well, well! You got an interesting sideline for a burying man.
- Poke Tolliver: Could I interest the both of you in a little proposition?
- Rowdy Yates: Probably don't see too much excitement being a schoolteacher, do you?
- Georgia: Teaching school isn't supposed to be exciting.
- Rowdy Yates: Well, I guess you're right. Ah, are you teaching anything special? Subject wise?
- Georgia: Most everything. Wouldn't you say that's what a schoolteacher's supposed to do?
- Rowdy Yates: Well, I guess that depends on what she's teaching. I'd give it a lot more thought if I had a teacher like you.
- Georgia: You're a little old for lessons, aren't you, Mr Yates?
- Rowdy Yates: Oh no, never too old to brush up. I was kinda thinking, ah, on my way back, maybe, I'd swing by Rock City. My arithmetic's getting a little rusty.
- Georgia: You just do that. I'll make sure you get a front row seat. I may even let you erase the blackboard.
- Rowdy Yates: Ooh, yeah, well, I'll hold you to that, teacher.
- Gil Favor: One thing, if you ever let me see that face of you again, I will break off both of your arms, pound you into the ground right up to that stove-pipe hat.
- Poke Tolliver: Like I said, Mr Favor, you are a true Galahad of the open plains. Georgia honey, if you ever get to San Francisco, look me up. And, Cole, look on the bright side, they tell me the food in these Western penal institutions is wonderful.
- Georgia: Come to think about it, Cole, we did hear something about a fancy little undertaker playing it big in every little saloon between here and St Louis, didn't we?
- Cole Striker: We sure did. Just like he was painting the trail for us.
- Poke Tolliver: Listen, as a matter of fact, I was going to head back to St Louis when I broke a wheel. Y'see I been working on this new deal.
- Georgia: You been working, that's for sure. All dressed up in those funeral duds, and squirming like a trap-sprung rat.
- Poke Tolliver: Oh, Georgia honey, after all we've meant to each other.
- Georgia: I got a short memory.
- Cole Striker: But not me, Tolliver. Some things I never forget.
