- [Ted and Texas have been thrown out of a saloon for fighting]
- Ted Crosby: We didn't start anything, Whip.
- Marshal Whip Wilson: Yes, I know. Same old story - you were minding your own business when somebody ran into your knuckles.
- Frederick Kingsley, Lawyer: You know you have to make a run at least one a week to hold your franchise.
- Joyce Westbrook: Yes.
- Frederick Kingsley, Lawyer: You have to carry at least one passenger on every one.
- Marshal Whip Wilson: That's right, Joyce.
- Joyce Westbrook: I didn't know that.
- Frederick Kingsley, Lawyer: It's a postal regulation. They want to make sure they're doing business with a responsible passenger-carrying stage line.
- Joyce Westbrook: I see. Well, that may stop me. People out here say they won't ride on my line if they were paid for it!
- Frederick Kingsley, Lawyer: That's understandable. Folks don't like being shot at. You may have trouble hiring drivers, too.
- Marshal Whip Wilson: Well, we'll see she won't run out of drivers.
- Ted Crosby: Texas and I can ride as passengers.
- 'Texas': Sure! And if we get shot at, we'll get our money back for the tickets.
- Marshal Whip Wilson: Keep out of trouble now.
- Ted Crosby: Well, don't we always?
- Marshal Whip Wilson: Do I have to give you a short answer? No!
- [Whip has just finished a fight with an outlaw]
- Sheriff Bill Preston: I ought to arrest you for disturbing the peace.
- 'Texas': Why, Sheriff? Did we break up your afternoon nap?
