Sheriff : Come on, Lisa. They're waiting for you over in the courthouse.
Lisa Truex : Aren't you going to help me, Bat? I have no one else - no family, no friends - no one who really cares.
William Barclay 'Bat' Masterson : Oh, the sheriff cares, Lisa. And so do those twelve men on the jury.
Sheriff : And they're ready and willing to fix you up good and proper.

Lisa Truex : Twelve men...
William Barclay 'Bat' Masterson : Mm-hmm.

William Barclay 'Bat' Masterson : Oh, Sheriff... in the interest of justice, make sure those jurors bring their wives to the trial.
Sheriff : Don't you fret about justice. Every wife in town is going to be there.
