- [Black Pete reads a letter that one of his henchmen stole]
- Black Pete: Listen to this! "She does not know that her father made his will that way, but when the lawyer reads it to her on the 18th, she will discover that she will have to be married before 12 o'clock or lose the entire fortune, so I want you to be here when the time comes and marry her. Then you can get ahold of the money as her husband and give me half of it for arranging for the matter this way." Here it says the girl's name is Dorothy Horton. Why the nasty, double-crossing, thievin' woman. Can you beat that?
- Hester: Young man, would you like to get married?
- Refuses to Marry: Who me?
- Hester: It won't take a minute. It's perfectly simple. All you've got to do is marry the girl and I'll pay you well.
- Refuses to Marry: Not on my life. My wife would skin me alive!
- [Jim is pretending to be Hester's nephew Hezekiah and wed Dorothy in a marriage of convenience]
- Hester: Hezzy has agreed to help us out. Don't you think he's just wonderful?
- Dorothy Horton: Yes, I suppose so.
- Hester: I do
- Henchman Jim: It's all off, Pete. That stinkin' coyote we left in the shack got free and butted in just as the judge was tyin' the knot.
- Black Pete: That dirty, double-crossin' hound! We should have plugged him.
- [last lines]
- Dorothy Horton: Let me help you, Mister... I mean, my husband.
- Deputy Marshal: Thank you, Miss... I mean, my wife. Oh, I forgot, I've got to sign those annulment papers and, if I do...
- Dorothy Horton: I won't be your wife.
- [the Deputy and Dorothy kiss]
