Bill Tyler Quotes in The Mountain Men (1980)

Bill Tyler: I heard you got in on the money end of this miserable business.

Henry Frapp: Yep. Packed in supplies, watered down the whiskey, jacked up the prices... and went to tradin' for beaver.

Bill Tyler: How'd ya do?

Henry Frapp: I lost my ass!

Bill Tyler: Say, uh, Henry... ain't no need for you to fight your way into that village. We could join up after...

Henry Frapp: [Interrupting] I ever tell you about the time the 'Rapahos chased me up a canyon over in the Big Lost?

Bill Tyler: No, but I reckon you're gonna tell me.

Henry Frapp: Well, it was over on the Horse Prairie. This band of 'Rapahos had been chasing me three days. So I seen this canyon. I figured I'd whip in there, and then I'll slip out. Trouble was that there was a way in but there wasn't no way out at all. Nothin' but cliffs half a mile high all the way around. A whole damn tribe of Blackfoot down there... just madder than turpentined wildcats. So I holed up behind some rocks' but that didn't do no good... because they just kept on a-comin', entire Sioux nation. Me outta powder, outta lead. Goddamn, I was one scared n... r!

Bill Tyler: I thought you said they was 'Rapaho.

Henry Frapp: No, goddamnit! They was Pawnee!

Bill Tyler: Well, what happened to you?

Henry Frapp: Well, I got killed, of course!

Bill Tyler: [aiming their rifles] Don't miss.

Henry Frapp: I never miss.
