[Pancho]

Foreign.

[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]

Here's adventure, here's romance. Here's the famous Robin Hood of the Old West.

[Pancho]

Cisco. He said he is getting closer.

[Narrator]

The Cisco Kids now the Cisco Kid and our exciting story, Rustlers on the Lazy D in the Old west as now cowhands as a class were honest and loyal to their bosses. Seldom did you meet one who was dishonest or disloyal. But Jed Perrin and Sid Mosley of the Lazy D were the exceptions. As our story opens, Jed and Sid are riding towards the foothills of the big range country some miles from the rancho.

[Jed Perrin]

Sure them guns of yours are in working order, Sid? They're always in working. The lesson I'd have been dead for now. You're getting quite a reputation as a gunman. When you come up against this Cisco Kid, that's something else again. I figure I'm just as fast with a gun as Cisco. You have a chance to find out, Sid, where most of Cisco's care. The big boss sent for him, huh?

[Cisco Kid]

Yeah.

[Jed Perrin]

Coven's beginning to suspect someone's running off his cattle. How could Ben suspect that? It ain't no laughing matter, Sid. You and me stand to make a lot of money out of this cattle rustling. Ben Colburn doesn't suspect us. After all, you're his foreman, Jed. I ain't worrying about Coburn himself. I'm thinking of a Cisco Kid. And Umbre's smarter than a pull with just the minute. I overheard Coburn telling his daughter that Cisco was camped out here, I knew why did Coburn come ride out and say he'd send for Cisco to run down the rustlers? Sure, but he didn't know I was listening. Well, you can quit worrying, Jed. Soon as we get to his camp, I'll pick a fight with Cisco and that'll be the end of it.

[Pancho]

Right to the rancho, Cisco.

[Cisco Kid]

No, Pancho, there is no need for that. But the message I got from Senor Coburn explained everything. Also, it said we'd better make our camp out here well away from the rancho. Why out here? Because if the hombres while rustling the senor's cattle sauce right to the rancho, they might become suspicious.

[Pancho]

But what?

[Cisco Kid]

So food is on your mind again? I might have known it. But for the time being, catching those wrestlers is more important than food. We have Corners. Poncho too. Humbly. What is your errand here?

[Jed Perrin]

My name's Jed Parent. I'm the foreman of the Lazy D. You're the Cisco Kid, ain't you?

[Cisco Kid]

That is what I am. Carlton Banjo called Pancho.

[Jed Perrin]

I've been having trouble with rustlers lately. Me and Sid rode out here to invite you two mavericks to ride on. Yeah. Savvy?

[Cisco Kid]

Did you not say this? Get a bunch of axe. Will you bring us word from Senor Copen to ride on? We will do so, hombre, and not.

[Jed Perrin]

Before carry out of here full of lead.

[Cisco Kid]

You act tough, but Chacho.

[Jed Perrin]

Why, you coyote.

[Cisco Kid]

But I do not think you are quite as tough as you seem.

[Pancho]

You hit yourself.

[Cisco Kid]

Somebody has poor aim. Pancho does not know how to shoot a gun. Drop that gun.

[Pancho]

Drop it.

[Cisco Kid]

Pick it up, Pancho. Easy, school.

[Pancho]

I'll get you for that.

[Cisco Kid]

You mean you'll try?

[Pancho]

Only, ah. One dance is so two dance. How'd you like the ground, hombres?

[Cisco Kid]

Break open their guns. Poncho, throw away the cartridges. All right, get up on your feet, you. You too. Now, get on those horses and get out of this camp. Give them back their impicons, Poncho. Empty gun. You ain't heard the last of this, Cisco. But you ain't. Get on those horses. Come on.

[Pancho]

Sick.

[Cisco Kid]

Next time it'll be our turn.

[Pancho]

Get up, you.

[Cisco Kid]

No, of course not. Rancho. They had some reason of their own for coming here. I think. After all, we had better ride to the rancho, Chico. So you coble should know about this, and soon.

[Alma Coburn]

When will Cisco and Pancho get here, dad?

[Ben Coburn]

Well, they should be here by now, but they're not. Well, I don't mean here at the house. I mean they should have arrived out there by the fork of the trail. I wrote them where to camp.

[Alma Coburn]

You didn't invite them to the house? Why, dad?

[Ben Coburn]

Well, Cisco understands.

[Cisco Kid]

Alma.

[Ben Coburn]

Later we'll give them our hospitality. At the moment, they're going to help us land those blasted rustlers. I think I'll ride out to the fork and see if Cisco and Pancho have arrived.

[Alma Coburn]

I'd like to go too, dad.

[Ben Coburn]

Well, I don't see any reason why you shouldn't.

[Alma Coburn]

Do you think they'll remember me?

[Ben Coburn]

Well, you've become quite a young lady since they last saw you.

[Alma Coburn]

They'd better remember me.

[Ben Coburn]

Well, let's get to our horses.

[Jed Perrin]

Daughter.

[Ben Coburn]

Who are these riders?

[Alma Coburn]

Why, it's the sheriff, dad. With the deputy and a couple of other men.

[Ben Coburn]

Afternoon, sheriff. Boys.

[Cisco Kid]

Howdy, Coburn. Miss Elmer.

[Alma Coburn]

Hello, sheriff.

[Cisco Kid]

I'll come right to the point, Coburn. One of my boys reported seeing a Cisco Kid camped on your land.

[Ben Coburn]

Oh, is that so, Sheriff?

[Cisco Kid]

Yeah, you don't have to worry about that buzzard, though. Throw him off your land.

[Alma Coburn]

Cisco's all right, Sheriff. What do you mean, Buzzer?

[Ben Coburn]

Well, Cisco's there because I sent for him.

[Cisco Kid]

What's that? You sent for him?

[Ben Coburn]

I sure did. You know, I've been having trouble with rustlers lately, and I want somebody to help me nab them.

[Cisco Kid]

Well, I. I told you I'd help you, Copan. As soon as I got a couple other jobs tender, too.

[Ben Coburn]

Yes, meanwhile, I'm losing my cattle.

[Cisco Kid]

Yeah, but to get that Cisco Kid to help you out. Why, blast it all, man. He's as like as not to steal your cattle himself.

[Alma Coburn]

That's enough of that, Sheriff. Cisco's a good friend of ours.

[Ben Coburn]

Alma just said what I was about to say.

[Cisco Kid]

So that's the way of it.

[Ben Coburn]

Yes, Sheriff, that's the way of it.

[Cisco Kid]

Let's go, boys. All I can say, Corbin, is you must be crazy to trust that hombre.

[Pancho]

Get out.

[Jed Perrin]

Will you stop here for a minute, Sid? We can look back from the top of this pass and see what Cisco's gonna do. I know what I'm gonna do to Cisco as soon as I get a shot at him. Your joy plenty. So does mine. Where do I get these field glasses? On that camp. Hey, him and his partner are saddling their horses, Sid. Yeah. Where are they going? How do you suppose I know. But if they should ride this way, there's no better place for us to wait for them than right here. All right, we'll try Gulch. That's just what we'll do, Sid. I ain't gonna fool around anymore with.

[Cisco Kid]

That Cisco Kid and say, all right, Ms. Wake, get on off your horse.

[Jed Perrin]

Yeah, good thing I brought my rifle along.

[Cisco Kid]

This time we'll make sure.

[Jed Perrin]

Don't forget the trail forks down below. Jedi. What if they take that other trail?

[Cisco Kid]

We'll still get them.

[Jed Perrin]

They don't come up through here. The only other way they can get out of that canyon is through that.

[Cisco Kid]

Cattle trail in the canyon walls and get over there in plenty of time to gun.

[Pancho]

We go up to the Pasisco.

[Cisco Kid]

No, Pancho, we're gonna take this other trail.

[Pancho]

It's a longer way to Granjo. But istre Cisco.

[Cisco Kid]

But sometimes, Chico, the longest way is the shortest way. The longest way.

[Pancho]

The shortest way. The longest way. The shortest. The longest way. The shortest.

[Cisco Kid]

I should not go to school very much.

[Pancho]

Isco But Fancho always thinks.

[Cisco Kid]

But I've been. Fanchu. Is this the longest way? The shortest way? No. It might be safer for us to take this trail. We are now one I say to seek. Oh, you have eyes in your head, amigo. You want to use them more. The trail of those two hombres who called at our camp were up through the pass, see? The hombres don't like us, huh? Indeed they do not. In fact, they like us so little they might try to shoot us down from our bushels. So we are taking the longer prayers of the rancho riders up ahead, Cisco. I see a number of them.

[Pancho]

Loco, ho, slow down, Loco.

[Cisco Kid]

You know, as I recall, this sheriff Pancho, he did not care very much for us. Pancho Member? She had a thing with my bill. Well, I will give him credit for this much, Chico, but he was honest in thinking so. But that still does not make him our friend. Do you not bother us and tell him to see your full blown sent for us? No, no, no. We'll tell them nothing of the kind, Pancho. Whatever talking is done about that must be done by Senor Cobra himself. What are you doing this country, Cisco? Oh, you're riding around, Senior Sheriff. Just looking things over. Yeah, we like this country, Sheriff. How long you been here? Well, I do not exactly know. Come on, come on. Answer my question.

[Jed Perrin]

We live.

[Cisco Kid]

It is possible that we arrived this morning. Look, you, I ain't interested in what's possible. I want to know how long you've been here. That is the only answer I can give you, senior Sheriff. And I take that to mean you've been here a lot longer than that. You know the Coburn's cattle maybe, huh? No, Senior Sheriff, we are not looking over anyone's cattle. I don't believe that. All right, get your hands up. Both of you. Go the other way.

[Jed Perrin]

No.

[Cisco Kid]

Come on. Come on, quick. Up with them. Very well, Senor Sheriff. We will do as you say. Now get down off them horses. What for? I said get down. Deputy, put the handcuffs on these two hombres. Right, sir. You boys make a circle around these two. Stay where you are, all of you. This is your idea of a joke, Sheriff? It is not mine. And not mine neither. For what reason did you order the deputy to put handcuffs and punch you on me? I'm taking you both in on suspicion that cattle rustling. Just go, Aren't you will your horse when I give the word. Jesus. Go you humbly don't get down off them horses. Hey, Sheriff, anything you say. But our horses Are faster than his poncho. You'll have to ride up through that pass after all.

[Pancho]

Up to the pass.

[Cisco Kid]

Those shots are coming from the top of the fast poncho. We are caught between two fires.

[Pancho]

What we do, Shisco? What we do?

[Cisco Kid]

At the moment, Chico, I do not know. We must do something at once. For those hombres are shooting to kill.

[Narrator]

With bullets coming at them from two directions. Cisco and Pancho are really in trouble. In just a moment, we'll return to the Cisco Kid. Now back to the Cisco Kid and our exciting story. Rustlers on the Lazy D. Because of cattle rustling on his ranch, Ben Coburn has sent for Cisco. Learning of this, Cockburn's foreman, Jed Perrin, who with gunman Sid Mosley is doing the rustling, prepares an ambush for Cisco and Poncho. And finally, the sheriff, angered because Cockburn enlisted the aid of Cisco, starts out to arrest our friends. Escaping from the sheriff, Sisko and Pancho rode unsuspectingly back towards the ambush. Now caught in the canyon between the two factions.

[Pancho]

What we do, Cisco? What we do?

[Cisco Kid]

We cannot go forward. We cannot go back. Pancho. Police are on the only two trails I know of out of this canyon. We'll not stay here.

[Pancho]

We get killed.

[Cisco Kid]

Wait. There's a narrow trail that leads to the canyon walls. An old cattle trail. Pancho, we take that trail.

[Pancho]

She's coast.

[Cisco Kid]

Hey. And right now up yellow.

[Pancho]

Come on.

[Cisco Kid]

I believe the trailer's right ahead of us, amigo.

[Pancho]

They take a shortcut to school. They got the fast horses.

[Cisco Kid]

Hey, but we have faster horses. See, we are on the old paddle tail now, Fudgeo. But the race will be close.

[Pancho]

Too close.

[Cisco Kid]

Sheriff may get to the opening of the walls before we do.

[Pancho]

Get that first the deputy drawn. The bunch is closed. It takes the image.

[Cisco Kid]

You'll give the deputy something to think about.

[Pancho]

Punch knocking some barrel right over his head. Cisco. The deputy slowed down now there's the tail of Buncho.

[Cisco Kid]

Get ahead of us. Come on into it.

[Pancho]

The younger.

[Cisco Kid]

We have beaten them to let us not slow down.

[Pancho]

And some more bullets.

[Cisco Kid]

They are above us, Poncho.

[Pancho]

The bullets not hit us now.

[Cisco Kid]

She out of brain, Poncho. I'm glad to say that was just about as close a call as we ever had. But let us keep going and get to the rancho as soon as we can.

[Jed Perrin]

Lasted. Oh, we missed them, Sid. Mighty hard shooting down into that cannon from up here. Jed, that you the target? Going as fast as Cisco was. Where's that sheriff's gone. Can't get up here. Not without going clear around the bluff and then riding up. I was wondering if I heard us shooting at Cisco. I don't know. Appears to me they were so busy with their own shooting they couldn't notice. Hey, wait a minute. Who are these two riders, Jed? Maybe it's Cisco and his partner. Better get on your horse, Sid. Couldn't be Cisco. He couldn't get up here this quick. Hey, it's Colvin and his daughter. You better get out of here, Jed. No. Might as well have a showdown right now. What do you mean, the showdown? You might as well take them two prisoners and run off a big herd of Coburn's cattle.

[Cisco Kid]

Yeah.

[Jed Perrin]

Yeah, why not? Then get out of the country. That's what we'll do, Sid. There's an old adobe hut right close by the range. Riders used to use it for a.

[Cisco Kid]

Bunkhouse in bad weather. We'll climb up and leave them there.

[Jed Perrin]

Yeah. Yeah, you're right. Maybe we better leave them so they won't talk, huh? We'll see.

[Cisco Kid]

Get ready. Here we are.

[Ben Coburn]

Hey, what's all this shooting going on over this way?

[Pancho]

Dad.

[Alma Coburn]

It's Jed Perrin and Sid Mosley.

[Cisco Kid]

So I see.

[Jed Perrin]

Well, you two are supposed to be.

[Ben Coburn]

Riding herd right now. What are you doing out this way?

[Jed Perrin]

Hit the bridle of our horse, Sid. Right. What we're supposed to be doing and what we are doing are two different things, Covid.

[Pancho]

Here.

[Alma Coburn]

You let go of that bribe, I'll.

[Jed Perrin]

Give an order, man. Come on, get down off that horse.

[Alma Coburn]

Me go you down, they said.

[Pancho]

Why, you two scoundrels hunt weapons yet?

[Cisco Kid]

Just what I'm gonna do right now.

[Jed Perrin]

That'll hold him for a while. What about that girl? The fall off a horse must have knocked her out. Shall we finish them both dead now? We'll just tie him up and leave him in that old adobe.

[Cisco Kid]

Come on, get busy. That is true. They will not fat you soon be too dark to save them. No, we'll follow their tracks as long as we can. Tracks lead right back to the country. Right from Cisco, see? Only this is up on the block. Wait. Bunch of them. Hold them. Stop here. I will take a closer look at those tracks.

[Pancho]

And once you have the look too.

[Cisco Kid]

Senor dismounted from his course and walk over to here. Here are two other sets of tracks. Bombres. Signs of a fight here, Pancho. Not good for the senor, Senorita. Anything but good. I am not certain, Pancho, but I would say the senor and the senorita were taken prisoner. Tracks lead that way. All right. Back to your horse, Pancho. Back to the horse.

[Pancho]

They get more dark all the time.

[Cisco Kid]

Unless we find them in the next few moments. We will not find them tonight. I'm not so sure. I've got a 2 hom. Maybe the hom was shooting us, Cisco. That is my own thought too, Chico. What is that ahead of us?

[Pancho]

The old adobe?

[Cisco Kid]

Practically right in that direction, Pancho. Just in case this may be another ambush, Pancho, we will walk the rest of the way. I can hear nothing from the adobe. Just the same, they were walking quietly. You wait here until I call you. I am going into that adobe hut in a rush. You wait here. Come in here quickly. Look bound hand and foot and guide you Free the senorita. I'll free the senor. Here. There, there, Senor. There. Senorita, you freeze.

[Ben Coburn]

Oh, both wonder of winging. Glad to see you. Cisco and Poncho.

[Pancho]

No, Bruce.

[Alma Coburn]

They're after our cattle, dad.

[Ben Coburn]

After the cattle?

[Cisco Kid]

How do you know?

[Alma Coburn]

Well, I pretended to be unconscious, but I wasn't. I heard them say they were going after the cattle.

[Cisco Kid]

First thing to do is to get both of you back to your ancho.

[Ben Coburn]

Well, we're all right, Cisco. If only if we get after those two scoundrels, Perrin and Moses.

[Pancho]

Somebody's coming.

[Cisco Kid]

Here's the sheriff, sis. The sheriff will give you an escort home, Senor. Senorita, tell me quickly, where are your cattle?

[Ben Coburn]

Over in the valley beyond the next foothill south.

[Cisco Kid]

Cisco, bring your partner in there. Come out with your hands high. See, Sheriff? We'll be right out.

[Alma Coburn]

No, Cisco, the sheriff doesn't trust you. He might have.

[Ben Coburn]

I'll talk to him. Cut out that kind of talk, Sheriff.

[Pancho]

That's you, Cobra.

[Cisco Kid]

Yes.

[Ben Coburn]

You're wrong about Cisco.

[Cisco Kid]

Trouble is with you, Coburn. You're too trusted. Do not argue with the sheriff. Senior Corbin, time is passing and those rustlers may be getting away with your cattle. But do not worry, senorita, it's too dark for them to do any accurate shooting. Run for your horse, Pancho.

[Pancho]

Where she's go?

[Cisco Kid]

We are coming out, Sheriff. Now there's the hurt my jungle fire down there, Poncho. Now let's cook some stuff and know. See, Poncho? Those are the two homies who came to our camp. One of them is Senor Coban's foreman. Was the foreman, Cisco. I stand corrected, Cho. You are right. He was the foreman. Now let us go after them. Poncho, you ready? You're ready? We'll get down there as quietly as possible. S not Costanto's cattle. Come on, come on. I haven't seen you.

[Pancho]

Yet.

[Cisco Kid]

They will any moment. When they do, there is going to be a five week fight. Now, Poncho, the farm is turning this way. Hey, Sid, get your guns out quick for Brian Thunder. The Cisco Kid. See over it is the sea scare. Yo, you going to draw those guns? Yeah, yeah, I am, Cisco.

[Pancho]

Hey, look out. She.

[Cisco Kid]

Great.

[Pancho]

Smokesy. You shot the gun right out of your hand. I'll get a burden with my fist.

[Cisco Kid]

So you still want to fight, eh?

[Pancho]

Very well. Get it out of this, Jack. Sure will in fine. You'll get in this too. No, no, no, no.

[Cisco Kid]

Keep an eye on those cattle in case they stamped just the same one. I got him.

[Pancho]

S. You've got nothing. Only nothing. Except my fist. And your jaw.

[Cisco Kid]

And now you, hombre. This is for you.

[Pancho]

That end the fight.

[Cisco Kid]

People see, it does not end the troubles of these two hombres. We'll take them back to the rancho amigo and let Senor Coburn turn them over to the sheriff. Perhaps now the sheriff will believe you and I are not the cattle rustler.

[Ben Coburn]

Well, Cisco, I must say you did a fine job of stopping the rusting on my spread.

[Cisco Kid]

Gracias, Senor Coburn. I'm glad Pancho and I could be of help. Francisco doesn't usually apologize for what he's done out here in this country. I've got to apologize to you. You. Sheriff, let us say nothing more about the incident. Suppose we consider it closed?

[Ben Coburn]

I think that's best for all of us.

[Cisco Kid]

I wonder what happened to Poncho.

[Ben Coburn]

Oh, Pancho couldn't keep away from the cook house. He's over there with my daughter Alma. Well, I guess everything's about ready. Here comes Alma and Pancho to get us.

[Alma Coburn]

Well, I think we're ready to eat. Is everybody hungry?

[Cisco Kid]

Everybody hungry like Pancho?

[Pancho]

They ain't not waste time talking about it, Pancho.

[Cisco Kid]

Watch your manners.

[Alma Coburn]

Oh, that's all right, Cisco. Pancho was telling me how to cook violi.

[Pancho]

Push. You gotta get the violies. And then you put him in a pan of wood.

[Cisco Kid]

That's how Pancho makes the best friolis.

[Pancho]

In the whole world. After the frioli soak in the water.

[Cisco Kid]

I am afraid, Pancho, that the food will be getting cold.

[Ben Coburn]

That's right, Pancho. Suppose you tell us about it as.

[Cisco Kid]

We eat, Senor Coburn. Pancho tells you about it. How do we eat?

[Ben Coburn]

All right, let's get going. I think we're all hungry. Coming, Cisco and Alma.

[Alma Coburn]

You all Go ahead, dad. Cisco and I will be along in a minute.

[Ben Coburn]

They'll be waiting at the table for you.

[Alma Coburn]

Well, senorita, you know, Cisco, no man ever looked quite as good to me as you did when you came into that adobe.

[Cisco Kid]

Oh, it is nice to hear, senorita. Gracias.

[Alma Coburn]

And nothing ever took quite so much courage as what I'm gonna do now.

[Pancho]

Frisco.

[Cisco Kid]

And what is that?

[Alma Coburn]

Just a little expression of gratitude to go just.

[Jed Perrin]

Oh.

[Cisco Kid]

Senorita.

[Pancho]

Disco in his armor. Wonderful cook, Cisco.

[Cisco Kid]

He is a wonderful cook.

[Pancho]

One of the best. And she reminds you of Po's uncle Sanchez.

[Cisco Kid]

She reminds you of Porphyria's uncle Sanchez.

[Pancho]

Yes, Sanchez is a good cook, like her.

[Cisco Kid]

Oh, a good cook. Well, is he not still a good cook, Chico? No, Cisco. Po. His uncle Sant get killed by a weasel. Poncho people do not get killed by weasels.

[Pancho]

Po.

[Cisco Kid]

He got killed by a weasel. Then tell me, how did he get killed by a witch weasel?

[Pancho]

It's easy, Cisco. Don't tell me. For Peter's uncle San's walk and the railroad track. Trains come along. He. Not he. The weasel. Oh, f. Oh, she's gone.
