-Why don't send for the Queen of Sheba?
No good. They want Adeaid.
Look, nothing is impossibe for Caamity.
Didn't she save the stage
from 100 savage njuns?
Didn't she rescue her pretty ieutenant
from a fate worse than death?
Besides, she gave the boys her word
that Adeaid woud be here.
Caamity's word is sacred.
CALATY: Bi.
-You reay have that much faith in me?
-Who knows you better than me?
You think coud go to Chicago

We, she ain't beautifu.
Caamity's not beautifu? You boys

And that! And that!

Here, in my own cabin.
Gosh amighty, 'm dumb!

She charmed him hog-eyed.
Look at these. Pure sik!
