Vengeance is Mine
Clive, Marie and Anna run for cover. There is a gunfight and Paul Caine rides off. Marie sees
Jack lying in the street, she runs to him yelling, "Jack!, Jack!" 
"Are you all right Jack?" He's a bit groggy.
Bennett and Craddock are standing outside the detachment. Jack's arm is in a sling.
Clive is waiting for the stage to arrive with his father Rev. Harrison Bennett.
"You must be gettin' cold feet...
this bein' yer last day 'a freedom n' all."
"Look, me and Couteau followed his trail 'til it was stone cold, he ain't nowhere's near
Bordertown."
The stage is heading towards town, when it stops to pick up an unexpected passenger.
Paul Caine talks with Rev. Bennett and finds out that his son is the mountie in Bordertown.
The reverend explains that his son is getting married tomorrow.
Caine gets off the stagecoach a few miles from town.
He tells the reverend that he will try to make it to the wedding.
Marie and Clive are in the church talking.
"I am very happy for you Clive, I had my chance to marry you and I didn't. It just hurts a little."
The stage arrives with Harrison Bennett, who tells the mountie that his mother wasn't able to
make the trip from Toronto.
"Mrs. Dumont, it is a pleasure to see you again....
Marshal, you aren't interested in following my
"I don't see any point father, ya see I
Marie speaking to the reverend:
Jack assumes she is talking to him:
The day of the wedding arrives. Clive talks with Anna (against Sally's wishes because it's bad luck)
He tells Anna that he is leaving the force. She is very happy.
"I've made a decision, I'm leaving the force. I can't help thinking about you Jack...wife and
child murdered."
"I wasn't wearin' a badge when they were murdered."
"Well, I'm hanging them up Jack."
"What ya gonna do become a farmer?"
"Anna and I will be leaving right after the wedding. Politics Jack, I think I'll run for office."
The moment has arrived. Jack and Clive are getting ready and having a few last words between
compadres.
Jack in a very gravelly voice, makes fun of Clive's appearance:
"It's been a big part of my life Jack, it doesn't come off until after the wedding."
"I envy you, a pretty wife n' a new start on life. 
Jack takes his time piece from his pocket. "It's time."
I wish you all the luck in the world Clive."
"Oh Jack. will you do me one last favor?"
"Sure what's that?"
"Do you think you could shave for the wedding?"
Vengeance is Mine continued...
Meanwhile:
The next morning:
"No Jack, I just hope Caine is gone."
"You must be very proud."
"Oh...it ain't nuthin'."
"You gettin' married er re-inlistin'?"
son's lead are you?"

fair at mendin' too." Jack smiles.
