Bugs Watson Quotes in Destry Rides Again (1939)

[Destry & Dimsdale have stopped the gunfight at the Claggett farm. One of Kent's men points a gun at Dimsdale. Destry hits him on the neck with his gloves]

Tom Destry Jr.: Big bee - about that big - right on the back of your neck. I got him, though.

Bugs Watson: Thanks.

[Wash announces he will send for Tom Destry to be his Deputy Sheriff]

Frenchy: But Destry's dead!

Bugs Watson: That makes him the right man for the job.

Gyp Watson: Save us a lot of trouble.

Washington Dimsdale: Is that so? Well, young Tom ain't dead and his father brought him up to be the toughest and fightin'est man that ever growed up in the West! He ain't got as big a name as his pa, but he cleaned up Tombstone and I'm sendin' for him to be my deputy and when he gets here, Destry will ride again!
