Sight Unseen (continued)
Jack manages to get to the stable and mount his horse,
but Marie spots him before he can leave town.
She catches him before he hits the ground.
Clive tells Kelly that she reminds him of a young woman
of ill repute that he used to know. He exlains that he
tried to help her change her ways, but when she refused,
he had to force the young woman out of Bordertown.
Before she left, she stole his mother's locket.
The hombres catch up to the pair soon after, Kelly shoots and kills one of them, then tries to
backtrack and sneak up behind the other...leaving the blinded mountie to fend for himself.
Just as the killer is about to pull the trigger, a gunshot is heard and he falls dead to the ground.
Kelly's trick has worked.
Arriving at the edge of town, Kelly fires her pistol to summon help. She tells Clive that it's wrong
to judge people, and she rips the locket from around her neck and throws it to the ground.
She disappears into the bush before anyone see's her.
Jack, Marie and several others, hear the
commotion and hurry to help Clive.
Before Marie leads him away, Clive tells
Jack that the girl saved his life.
The marshal looks around...and talking to himself,
asks, "What girl?"
Then he see's the locket in the underbrush.
The doctor tells the boys they need lots of rest...and suggests that Jack read to Clive.
After she leaves the room, Jack asks, "Yer thinkin' about her ain't ya?"
"She saved my life Jack."
"Yah, well...I'll jus' get my glasses 'n read ta ya fer a spell, that ought 'a take yer mind off 'a
things."
As Jack reaches for his glasses he see's the locket. "Ah..I found somethin' 'a her's Clive...she
must 'a dropped it."
The locket slips from Jack's hand and as it hits
the floor it opens and begins playing music.
Hearing the music, Clive knows that it's his mother's locket. He also realizes that the woman
who saved his life is the same woman he ran out of Bordertown.
