Blind Chance

Boss, that posse is closin' in fast. You got a plan?

I surely do, Slim: we keep a-riding through this here arroyo. Come out the other side. We'll be long gone afore they figure out where we went.

Good idea, boss, except for one thing.

What's that?

This here's a blind canyon. Only one way in, and one way out.

You don't say?

That's a fack.

Well sir, I wish you'd a-told me that before we led the horses all the way in, what with that posse breathing down our necks.

I was fixin' to, but figured you knew what you were doin', you know, bein' the boss 'n all.

I guess that's natural. Truth is, though, this is my first bank job.

Is that so? You never mentioned that in the job interview.

Well sir, it is. And from the look of it, it's gonna be my last.

That's just a darn shame. I truly thought this gang had potential.

Looks like it's gonna be the end of a rope for us, Slim.

A cruel fate, and I am truly sorry to hear you say it.

That makes for the two of us, I'm sure.
