Roll, Thunder, Roll! (1949)

Glenn Strange: Ace Hanlon

Quotes 

• Ace Hanlon : I never saw you before.

  El Conejo : Then take one good look, senor, because you no see El Conejo ever again - or anything else!

  Ace Hanlon : Now wait a minute...

  El Conejo : A sheep-stealing hombre who think he can make robberies and rustling and then blaming on El Conejo... Amigo, he is as good like dead.

  Ace Hanlon : Who says I pull robberies and then blame them on you?

  El Conejo : Me! El Conejo, he says so - and El Conejo know because he make it his business to find out. I am going to kill you... .

  Red Ryder : [bursting into Hanlon's saloon]  Drop those guns! You're not going to kill anybody.

• Happy Loomis : Of course, if El Conejo had have been hung, it sure woulda stopped whoever's making these raids from laying the blame on him.

  Ace Hanlon : Yeah, I guess you're right. And if Ryder turned him over to the marshal and locked him up, it'd mean the same thing. You can't put the blame on him while he's in jail.

  Happy Loomis : Well, I have a hunch that some of El Conejo's friends will bust him out of that jail, and then maybe, if there was someone who wanted it to look like El Conejo was... Say, listen to this... .

• Ace Hanlon : Now look, Ryder, you're not running this town.

  Red Ryder : Neither are you, much as you'd like to be.

• Wolf : Another place was raided, so they tell me.

  Ace Hanlon : Yeah, Josh Culvert. Time someone caught that El Conejo.

  Wolf : Be kinda tough, wouldn't it, seein' that he's down in Texas?

  Ace Hanlon : Texas? What did he do, throw them conchas up her?

  Wolf : Maybe he shoots them up with a shotgun. That El Conejo's plenty smart.

  Ace Hanlon : There's gettin' to be more and more smart people in the basin every week.

  Wolf : It's too bad the marshal's not smart, huh?
