[Andrew Rines]

Welcome to the Old Time Radio Westerns. I'm your host, Andrew Rines, and I'm excited to bring you another episode absolutely free. This is one of over 80 episodes released monthly for your enjoyment. Now, let's get into this episode.

[Narrator]

A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty Hyosu Silver the Lone Ranger, with his faithful Indian companion, Toto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains, led the fight for law and order in the early western United States. Nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again. The sun was just appearing over the horizon and no sound broke the morning stillness around the territorial prison as the figure of a man dropped to the ground from the outside wall and ran toward a nearby grove of cottonwoods. A moment later, the alarm sounded and shots rang out.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Hurry up, Hucky, let's get away. I made it, Vic. I made it. Let's go. Quick. Easy. Get up there. Get up. Get up there.

[Narrator]

Escaping into the hills, the two men rode all that day and rested only a few hours that night. The following day they walked their horses slowly along the trail a few miles outside the town of Big Rock.

[Lucky Jarrow]

I reckon we're safe enough now. Lucky you sure took a big chance, but you made it. Yeah, I'm not called lucky for nothing. Bank. I planned that break for two months, watching and checking the location of the guards and all. Then when I finally got word to you when to be waiting in the grove, I just had to get out. You got any definite plan in mind? Yeah, sort of. I notice we're heading toward Big Rock. You come this way on purpose, right? I got a sister in law there. She's a widow now, though. My older brother married a Mexican girl named Marla. He owned the cafe in Big Rock. Sort of made easy money on the side with some of his gun slings. What happened to him? Got shot by a posse. Marla took over the cafe. From what I hear, she's got some gunmen working for her now. She's smarter than my brother was. What are you aiming to do? Work as a gunslinger for Marla. She'll give us both jobs for that matter. But I got another reason for coming here. What? Remember when you were my cellmate a year ago? Yeah. I told you the hombres who were responsible for me being in prison. A masked hombre and an Indian. Yeah, I remember. A masked hombre is called the Lone Ranger. Right. Well, Marla came to my trial and she saw that Indian when he appeared against me. The Indian who rides with a Lone Ranger. What about it? Marla wrote me that she spotted that same Indian hanging around Big Roc. And that means the Mask hombres around too. Maybe trying to get the goods on her and her gunslings. I've heard that masked man is plenty tough. Sure, but he's not the only one. I'm out to get him so's he can't interfere with me or Marla anymore. Seems that he tipped off the sheriff about my brother some months ago. Sure taking a big chance. News of the jailbreak will get around. He'll be watching for you. That's why I grew this beard. He's not gonna recognize me anyway. Before the news reaches Big Rocket, I hope to find that snooping masked man and put a bullet in him. Let's get a move on. Vicky, get up there. Come.

[Marla Jarrow]

Get in.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Get.

[Narrator]

Was late that night when Marla Jarrow, Lucky's Mexican sister in law, heard a knock at the back door of her office at the caf.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Hi, Myla. It's me, Lucky.

[Marla Jarrow]

Lucky, Come in. And who is this?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Lo, meet a friend of mine, Vic Stone. Vic, my sister in law, Marla. Gerald. Evening, man.

[Marla Jarrow]

You are the one who helped Locky get away, huh?

[Lucky Jarrow]

That's right. We used to be cellmates.

[Marla Jarrow]

I hope, amigos, they do not follow you here.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Ah, we covered our trail plenty good. I'll be safe enough around this town. Nobody will know me with all this hair on my face.

[Marla Jarrow]

The law may watch this place for you, Lucky. They may find out.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Don't worry. I'll use my brother's old hideout shack in the hills outside of town till I get a line on that Indian and masked man. See?

[Marla Jarrow]

That is better. But for tonight, you may use a room upstairs. Right now I'll get some refreshments. Then we'll have a long talk.

[Narrator]

The following evening, Toto, Indian companion to the Lone Ranger, rang to a halt at their camp not far from town.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Easy stuff. Easy fella. Any news in town, Toto? Ah, me meet Indian friend. Him say Lucky Jarrah break out of prison. Lucky Jarrah's sister in law runs a cafe in Big Rock. You mean Mexican woman? Yes. He may come there to see her after supper. Tano go back to town at the cafe and look around. Ah, he remember what him looked like. He does. Come there and team up with Marla. They'll make plenty of trouble. I'll be anxious to know if you find out anything.

[Narrator]

Toto rode to Big Rock later and entered the cafe. He stood in the shadows near the back where he could watch the others in the place. He was especially interested when Marla came from her office with a stranger and went to speak to the barkeeper.

[Marla Jarrow]

This is a good friend of mine, Sam. See that he'll serve whatever he wants.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Sure, I'll take care of him, ma'. Am. You're being mighty kind to me, Marley.

[Marla Jarrow]

Oh, it is nothing. Do not forget to give my message when you go to the shack later.

[Lucky Jarrow]

I'll tell him what you say. Don't worry.

[Marla Jarrow]

If there is anything he may need, Vic, be sure to wait. I forget something. Come back into my office a minute.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Sure.

[Narrator]

Tahoe missed the sudden sharp look Marla had given him. And a short time after Vic and Marla had gone back into her office, the Indian left the cafe and went to the hitch rack.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Steady, scum.

[Narrator]

Steady, fella.

[Lucky Jarrow]

You don't want to scout.

[Narrator]

Tottle rode from town and headed back through the moonlight toward the camp where the lone ranger was waiting a short distance behind him. Marla, Jaro and Vic were following, but making sure not to be seen.

[Marla Jarrow]

You'll see where the Indian goes, wherever it is. The mast only should be there. You must then get word to Locky.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Yeah. She'll be glad to know. You sure he's the right Indian?

[Marla Jarrow]

See, I never forget a face. He's the one.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Good.

[Marla Jarrow]

Tell Loki I have plenty of gunmen if you need help.

[Lucky Jarrow]

My hombres are plenty tough. Right. I reckon he'll want help.

[Marla Jarrow]

It will be good once that masked hombre is gone. I am sure he has tried to get something on me and my gunman.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Wait a minute.

[Marla Jarrow]

The Indian is turning off the trail.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Yeah. Good thing the moon's so bright. She's riding in toward that grove yard ass.

[Marla Jarrow]

It must be the camp. And masked hombre is sure to be there. Let us leave here before we are discovered. And you go to the shack and tell Loki what we have found out.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Right.

[Marla Jarrow]

Underlay. Underlay.

[Narrator]

While Marla rode back to town, Vic turned off and headed for the hideout shack. It was not long before he arrived and pulled to a stop.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Ho. Ho.

[Marla Jarrow]

Ho there.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Ho. Easy. What's up, ick? Got news for me? Yeah. The Indian was in the cafe. What? Marla pointed him out Good. We followed him. We found out where he and Amerstombre are camping. Luck is still with me. Of ick, it sure seems like it. Marla says her men will help you. I'll need help to get those two. They're plenty tough and smart. Come on, let's go back to town right now and talk to Marla. We'll make plans for finishing off that masked man, an Indian. Let's go.

[Narrator]

Meanwhile, at their camp, Toto had told the Lone Ranger what he had seen and heard at the cafe.

[Lucky Jarrow]

You say Marla Gero told the stranger to give a message to someone at a shack. Possible that Lucky Gerald is hiding somewhere close to Big Rock. That's right. Going to try to find out definitely. How you do that. I'll fix a Mexican disguise and spot Silver with dirt. Then I'll go to town tonight and apply for work at the cafe. I might get a line on Lucky. That'd be plenty risky. If they'll find out it'll not be good. Women have plenty tough gunmen in cafe. I'll take the risk. I'll fix a disguise and change my clothes while you work on silver with the clay. Then I'll go to town and meet Marla Jarrow.

[Narrator]

Later that night, Lucky Jarrow and his friend Vic Stone arrived in town and went to the cafe to see Marla. They were talking in Marla's office.

[Lucky Jarrow]

This is a chance I've been waiting for, Marla. I don't want to make a wrong move. So I came here to talk it over first.

[Marla Jarrow]

It is good you did, Lucky. That Lone Ranger turned the tables before on you and sent you to prison, no?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Yeah, but let's forget that, Marla.

[Marla Jarrow]

It is better not to forget, amigo. You must remember that he is most smart.

[Lucky Jarrow]

It's better to be sure this time, Lucky. I'll be careful. That's why I decided to get some help from you, my Luck.

[Marla Jarrow]

I have already talked to three of my gunmen about the matter. They are anxious to help you.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Good. It'll give us five against two, Lucky. We shouldn't have any trouble. Right.

[Marla Jarrow]

But do not forget, Lucky. You had six hombres in your gang when the masked man and Indian caught you before. You must be most careful.

[Lucky Jarrow]

All right, all right. Do those gunslingers of yours know what it's all about, my man?

[Marla Jarrow]

All I have tell them is that you are taking them to Gun Two hombres who are trying to break up my gang. I told them to follow your orders. You'll not have trouble with them, Lucky.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Fine. We'll go right now and attack that camp.

[Marla Jarrow]

I'll send the men out back. You go out and wait near your horses.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Right.

[Marla Jarrow]

Do not be too hasty, Amigo. Move in carefully on the camp and take those two hombres by surprise. Go now. The men will join you in a few minutes.

[Narrator]

After carefully disguising himself as a Mexican, the Lone Ranger left the camp and headed for town. Instead of taking the usual trail, he took a shortcut and soon arrived in front of the cafe.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Evening, stranger. Something for you. I have come to see the owner of the cafe, senor. To the ear. The boss around here is a woman, Mr. Mrs. Marla Gerald. Oh, then I shall talk to her, perhaps, huh? That depends. I reckon she's back in her office knocking the door back yonder. That's ya, senor. Gotcha.

[Marla Jarrow]

Who are you? What do you want, senor?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Please, senora, I wish to speak to the owner. They have tell me to come to this office.

[Marla Jarrow]

Well, senor, I am the owner. Come, sit down and say what it is you want.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Gracias, senora. I did not expect to find such a beautiful woman is divorced one of my countrywomen. Ah, this is most surprising as well as pleasing, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

Who are you, senor? What do you want?

[Lucky Jarrow]

I shall get to that in a moment, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

You will get to that Now. I do not trust strangers. And unless you talk most quickly, I shall use this gun.

[Narrator]

The curtain falls on the first act of our Lone Ranger adventure. Before the next exciting scenes. Please permit us to pause for just a few moments. Now to continue. For a moment, the Lone Ranger gazed fixedly at the gun in Marla's hand. Then, still posing as a Mexican, he shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

[Lucky Jarrow]

You've only gotten quite steady, senora. Carambi is good to see one so beautiful, Elsa much higher. And courage, no?

[Marla Jarrow]

You are testing my temper, senor.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, you will shoot a harmless countrymen who come to ask for work? I would not believe that of you, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

Oh, it is work that you want, huh?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, but of course, if one must face a gun when one comes just to ask for the work, perhaps it is better that I leave all, senor.

[Marla Jarrow]

I have put down the gun. I do not often see one of my countrymen who is so close, tall and so muscular or so what is the work that you do, seor? Perhaps you are good at cards, no?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, see, But I'm better with the gun, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

Honored by the law. Perhaps.

[Lucky Jarrow]

There are times when I have been accused of being an outlaw, senora. But of course, I do not agree to that, amigo.

[Marla Jarrow]

You are the most strange fellow. I could use one who is handy with the guns. Pedro?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Why, no. Then the job she's mine, huh?

[Marla Jarrow]

In the morning, you will meet the others and start on the job. If you had come sooner, you could have started right away. So some of my men have gone after a masked man, an Indian who are hiding in the hills.

[Lucky Jarrow]

That is most interesting.

[Marla Jarrow]

You have hear of your Lone Ranger?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, I know much about him, senor.

[Marla Jarrow]

He is on the side of the law. He has put my brother in law in prison and put the sheriff on the trail of my husband. Now he is trying to interfere with me and my men. He has one great surprise coming to him, no?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Perhaps now I shall leave, senor. Then.

[Marla Jarrow]

Wait until the men come back. Then you will meet them and find out what they have done.

[Narrator]

In camp. Toto had rolled up in his blanket on the ground and had gone to sleep. He was suddenly awakened by a warning whinny from Scout. Kato stood beside the paint and carefully scanned the surrounding woods for some sign of an intruder. Slowly, he drew his gun in readiness. Then a voice spoke out.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Freeze, Indian. Huh? I dropped that gun.

[Narrator]

Cattle whirl in the direction from which the voice had come. And he saw first one figure, then another. Until he realized a number of men ringed the camp and were closing in on him. Realizing he didn't have a chance against so many, Toto spoke.

[Lucky Jarrow]

He dropped guns. Come on, man. Wonder where the masked man is. Speak up, Indian. Where is the mask hombre? Him not here. Where is he? Me not talk. We'll find a way to make you talk. We left our horses back among the trees. Come on. Lead your paint to where they are. Get moving. Come, scout. Come on. What are you going to do? Take this Indian to the shack. You ride in and tell Marlo what's happened. Ask her to ride out there. Right. The rest of your mountain come with me and the Indian. Get on your horse, Indian leather.

[Marla Jarrow]

Fellas stay there.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Go on ahead, Indian. Get him on the town. Get up.

[Marla Jarrow]

Get up.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Get up.

[Narrator]

Back in Big Marla had taken the Lone Ranger from her office into the cafe. They sat at a table in the corner drinking coffee. At first, the masked man had decided to leave when he heard the gunman had gone to his camp. He knew they'd surprise Toto there. But he reasoned that they wouldn't harm the Indian until they found out where his masked friend was. The Lone Ranger also thought he'd have a better chance of helping Tato if he stayed with Marla until the men reported to her.

[Marla Jarrow]

Pedro, you have not that much since I told you the men had gone after the masked man in India.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, Come. But it's just my misfortune that I did not get here in time to go with him, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

So that is it, see? Never mind, Pedro. There will be much for you to do. If you work for me, you will have much chance to use your guns.

[Lucky Jarrow]

I shall look forward to using them, senora.

[Marla Jarrow]

Pedro, since we are from the same country, you have my permission to call me Marla. Are you like that, huh?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, it is to my liking, Marla.

[Marla Jarrow]

You know, of course, I am a widow.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Of course.

[Marla Jarrow]

Someday I shall go back to Mexico with plenty of De Niro. Then I shall live most grandly.

[Lucky Jarrow]

You have no relatives here, Marlo?

[Marla Jarrow]

Only a brother in law. But he is not such a Jewish. Lucky is an Americano. Tough and not good looking.

[Lucky Jarrow]

But he can help you run this cafe.

[Marla Jarrow]

No, no, it is mine. All of it. Lucky takes orders from me. He means no more than the rest of them.

[Lucky Jarrow]

So he's here with you, huh?

[Marla Jarrow]

Perhaps it does not matter.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Hey, Marta, Lucky sent me to get. Look, I better tell you in private.

[Marla Jarrow]

That is not necessary, Vic. Pedro here is a friend. He used to work with us, huh, Pedro?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, but of course. Look, Marla, he got the Indian. But the masked hombre wasn't at the camp.

[Marla Jarrow]

That is a foolish thing for Lucky to do. He should have waited until the masked man returned.

[Lucky Jarrow]

We didn't know he was gone till we got to the camp.

[Marla Jarrow]

If he finds the Indian is missing, the Lone Ranger will know something is wrong. We will be on guard.

[Lucky Jarrow]

See, I agree with you, Marla.

[Marla Jarrow]

Where is the Indian now? The shack.

[Lucky Jarrow]

They're gonna try to make him tell where the masked man is. It is not easy to force an Indian to talk, senor. Especially such a one as he.

[Marla Jarrow]

Pedro has more wisdom than any of you be.

[Lucky Jarrow]

He's just talking. Lucky wants you to come out there right away, Marla.

[Marla Jarrow]

It's getting late. But if I do not go, Lucky may lose his temper and shoot the Indian before he does talk.

[Lucky Jarrow]

That would be a most serious mistake, Marla. I have had much to do with the Indians. I have learned our ways. Perhaps, Marla, if I go with you, I might get him to talk, no?

[Marla Jarrow]

But of course. Pedro, come along. Get my horse, Vic, and bring him around to the front. We'll meet you outside.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Right.

[Marla Jarrow]

Let us go now, Pedro.

[Narrator]

See, the Lone Ranger, in his disguise as a Mexican, went out with Marla while Vic went back to get the woman's horse. As they stood waiting near the hitch.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Rack, the Lone Ranger spoke as you told Vic. Inside. Marla. It is Getting late. Perhaps it is better that I go make sure of a room across at the hotel, huh?

[Marla Jarrow]

You may bonk with one of the others at the cafe, Pedro. There is no need to spend money for the room at the hotel.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, when I have met them and get to know them. That would be good, Marla. But I prefer to take a room at least for tonight.

[Marla Jarrow]

All right. Like me, you do not trust strangers, pedo.

[Lucky Jarrow]

But of course we are no longer strangers, Marla.

[Marla Jarrow]

Of course not. Hurry, Pedro. I do not want to wait.

[Lucky Jarrow]

I shall be back in a few moments.

[Marla Jarrow]

Perhaps it is better Pedro's face at the hotel. And he will not learn from the others of my temper. One caballero who must grow to think.

[Narrator]

Much of me, the Lone Ranger entered the hotel and hurriedly wrote a note, wrapping it around a silver bullet. He paid the desk clerk to deliver it to the sheriff. Then the Lone Ranger returned to the hitch rack where Marla was waiting just as Vic brought her horse around. They mounted and with Vic leading the way, started for the shack in the hills. Later they entered the shack where Lucky and Marla's three gunmen were waiting. Tottle was tied and lay on a cot along the wall.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Hi, Marla. Glad you finally got here. We're trying to get to. Hey, who's that hombre?

[Marla Jarrow]

This is Pedro, a countryman of mine. Lucky. He has come to work for me. Pedro, this is Lucky Gerald, my brother in law.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, but of course. It is a pleasure, Senor Lucky. Sure. How long have you known Marla?

[Marla Jarrow]

Pedro is my friend. That he's enough, Lucky. I did not bring him here to be questioned.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Did he get anything from the redskin, Lucky? Not yet.

[Marla Jarrow]

Lick Pedro knows much about the ways of Indians. Perhaps he may get the Indian to talk.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Yeah. That's the stubbornest redskin I ever met. We tried to knock some information out of him.

[Marla Jarrow]

He wouldn't open his mouth.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Yeah, Jake's right. That redskin sure close mouth, Pedro.

[Marla Jarrow]

Perhaps if you try, you'll be able to make him say something, huh?

[Lucky Jarrow]

See, I'm willing to try, Marla. Perhaps it is possible. Don't see how you could do anything to make him open up.

[Marla Jarrow]

How would you go about it?

[Lucky Jarrow]

I'll find out, Marla, that Indians do not like the whine of bullets flying close to them. Especially if one comes just close enough to bury custody. Ah, nobody here can shoot that well. Oh, but you have not seen me shoot Senor Lucky. Ah, you probably miss him or kill him. I would never kill him, senor. I stake my life on that. If Marla says so, you can try. But if you do kill him, Pedro, I'll plug you. You savvy? Si, senor.

[Marla Jarrow]

If you make him talk, Pedro, you will receive twice as much pain. I am willing that you try.

[Lucky Jarrow]

But he is tied up, Marla. It is easier to break his nerve if he has to dodge ze bullets, no?

[Marla Jarrow]

Well, Vic, go untie the Indian.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Right. This is gonna be good. I'm more sure it will surprise all of you, Senor. Yeah? Don't forget, you better not pluck him. All right, India, stand up.

[Marla Jarrow]

Now, Pedro, we are waiting for you to show us how to make this Indian talk.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Gen Z is standing near the back wall. I shall go stand at the door. Stand off to the side, senor. All right, boys, come on. Out of the way. Now, Indian, look at this gun, huh? And this one. Now there are two.

[Marla Jarrow]

No, caramba. He's going to shoot with a gun in each hand, no? Be careful, Pedro.

[Lucky Jarrow]

But of course, Marla. He's already nervous, huh? You watch as I point one gun like this. And twirl the other one like this.

[Narrator]

Holding one gun level in his right hand, the Lone Ranger twirled the other in his left hand for a moment. Then with a twist, he sent it spinning in the air straight at Tonto.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Grab it, Tonto. Don't move, anyone.

[Marla Jarrow]

He tricked us. He threw the engine gun. Hedo. What is it?

[Lucky Jarrow]

What do you think? Hey, that voice. He's a masked man. Him here now.

[Marla Jarrow]

He make me talk.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Lucky Joe, you're going back to prison.

[Marla Jarrow]

Where's he masked?

[Lucky Jarrow]

Oh, he fixed himself up to fool us. You brought him here to frame me, Marla. Well, your gunslinger pulled that bank robbery last week. A week ago they told me so. Now see that you get what's coming to you for tricking me right now. Holy shoes.

[Marla Jarrow]

No. I'm hit.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Crush em. Get em both.

[Marla Jarrow]

I've got one.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Quiet.

[Narrator]

The guns in both the Lone Rangers and Totto's hands barked almost at the same time. And Vic and Jake took bullets.

[Marla Jarrow]

I must get away from here.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Hey there, Molly. Can you stop that gun?

[Marla Jarrow]

The sheriff.

[Lucky Jarrow]

I said drop your gun.

[Marla Jarrow]

Very well said.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Keep him covered, man. We rode up quietly. I listened at the door and heard what Lucky said about the bank robbery. He's finished. And so are you and your gunslingers. Mr. Darrell.

[Marla Jarrow]

It is what I deserve. I have think this hombre is a countryman, a caballero. It is that a person does not know who to trust these days, Darrell.

[Lucky Jarrow]

If Tom and I are through here, they leave these crooks in your hand, right, Lisa? Yeah, I got your note and we came right out behind you.

[Marla Jarrow]

Note he sent you in all.

[Lucky Jarrow]

Sure didn't expect him to send you one, did you? Shut up. I do not care to listen, Dumbaro. We've had enough for one night. Audio Sheriff Audio street hey, didn't hear you say goodbye, Marley. I know he meant to include you when he said adios because you're going away with these others for a long, long time. I doubt if you'll ever forget the Lone Ranger.
