=Mister, you goin' to town?
=Haven't seen you around... Waitin' here ain't gonna bring no train!

=I was just thinking about whether to wait till 7:50pm tomorrow, or walk over to town.

=The train ain't gonna come any time soon!

=What do you mean?
=Means you won't be ridin' it!

=Don't know where the hell you came from...

=Ha,
=A transporter!?

=Useless... A knife won't go through.

=Spit it,
=What's inside!?

=I can't say... I wasn't told either...//But...

=What!?

=My sponsor.

SWIP!

=Young'un?

GWEEK!


<26>
=My treat. Drink up...

=You don't want it!?


<27>
=Hmph!
=So no one's willing to do anything about these punks!?

=You men are pathetic!

=Don't be so cranky, lady!
=Is it 'cause you haven't had a man in so long?//I can take care of that if you want.
=Never! You bastard!

=Hey bro, you lookin' pretty unhappy there too.

=How 'bout it? You wanna take care of this lady's bitchin' for us!? Heh-heh-heh...
=Hey, that sounds like fun! Let's have a little show with you two!

=Ha! You wanna see it that bad!?
=Fine! Go ahead!

=Hey-hey!

=What are you staring at! Hurry and take it off!


<30>
=Go wake the marshall up and sober him up!
=Don't let him drink any more!

=We need him conscious or else there's no point!

=Make him suffer! We kill him only after he's gone through hell! Heh-heh-heh...
SPLASH!

=Uhh...

=Hey! Snap to it marshall!
[x2]WHAP

=P-Please stop... Stop...

=All right, you guys start it up.

WHUSH!

=Heh-heh... The show's starting, marshall!
=S-Stop...
TUG!

=Heh-heh-heh! Check it out...!

=Cowboy here's so nervous his thing ain't getting hard!
=Hah-hah-hah...

=Heh-heh-heh...

Part 4: They're Viruses

=Ah-hah-hah-hah...
=Hah-hah-hah...


<32>
=Sh-Shitheads...!

=We're trapped here like birds in a cage. By the way, you must be wondering what is going on in this place. We may be in the 20th century, but in this town, things have gone back to the 1800s!

=It looks barren now, but long ago, this was quite a beautiful place!


<33>
=It's had its fair share of frontier history... There were days where the stagecoaches ran through the town 4 times each day!

=Well, times changed and it's becomes like this. But even then, it was just a peaceful little town...

=And then they came!

=Yes... The viruses...

=Viruses?
=Yes, they're viruses. Those men have every possible virus of evil running through their bodies! Crooks, thieves, pimps, even escaped fugitives!

=The marshall and his assistant used to keep this place safe!

=But they had some special grudge against the marshall, so they've come here for payback!

=Th-That's right! It must be a huge grudge. That's why they won't stop at killing him! Right before the marshall's eyes...
=They murdered his assistant and the townspeople. And when they see women...


<34>
=Radio, telephone, cars, horses... They've destroyed every single connection to the outside world!
=Except the ones they need for themselves! Even the electricity!

=It's been four days now...

=We aren't from this town, but we can't get out of here, either... This is one huge disaster we've gotten wrapped up in.

=Th-Those fiends have nothing to lose! The father and son called Daddy and Ricky are the only ones with the grudge. The others just followed them here!
=They're just here for the enjoyment! They enjoy doing all of this from the bottom of their hearts!

=They must have been incarcerated together... B-But even still... What is wrong with their minds!? They don't think anything of killing us and the townspeople.

[x2]GLUB

=It's time for the news...

=I wish somebody would find out about this town.


<35>
=...A murder has occurred in Las Vegas!

=Stuff like that goes on in this town everyday...
=Giuseppe Neil, leader of the West German economist group currently touring the United States, was found shot to death in his suite at the Hotel Flamingo in Las Vegas.

=The cause of death was a bullet through the heart from the back, and the victim had been dead for approximately 10 hours before discovery.

=The police have begun an autopsy of the body, and have issued a cordon along the state borders of Nevada, California, and Arizona.

=The government has called the case an international calamity, and have ordered the FBI to launch a full-scale investigation.

=That's all for the news...

=Damn.
=That was the work of an assassin...

=Don't you wish a skilled assassin would come here and mop the floor with those men?

=Dear God, what is going to become of us...


<36>
Part 5: Red-Haired Molly

=What are you doing?

BWUSH

=H-Help, Please help me!

=Get me out of this town!


<37>
=I know. I know because I've been with so many men!

=Huh?
=You're no ordinary man, you're a professional!

=Please! I'm begging you!

=It has nothing to do with me...
=B-But...

=They might even come after you!

=So you stick to your rules no matter what... You really are a professional...

=I'm sorry...

=My name is Molly...


<38>
=Can you make love to me...? As a woman?

=You don't like... Dirty women?

TUG!

=A-Ah...
