Millie Davis : Oh, Flint. You've been missed around here. We figured on the calendar this would be about the time of year you'd be through here.
Flint McCullough : Oh.
Penny Davis : I had it figured for next week. I was going to take a bath.

Penny Davis : You hit the nail on the head. I got two friends in the mining business and they can't make enough to plug a rathole.
Millie Davis : Penny, you run along and get dressed now, y'hear!
[Mrs Winslow is trying to hide her amusement]
Penny Davis : Flint says you folks are from the East?
Albert Sykes : That's right. From Philadelphia.
Penny Davis : Is that in Kansas? Or Missouri?

Penny Davis : I guess you have to be real brave to be a wagon train scout, don't ya, Flint?
Flint McCullough : Ooh, well. I don't know how brave you gotta be. Let's just say it helps if you don't scare easy.
Penny Davis : I'd be scared. Out there. All alone. Wild animals howling. Indians taking potshots at you.
Flint McCullough : Penny, there's one thing I've learnt scouting: An Indian will never take a potshot at you. Unless he's mad at you.
Penny Davis : How can you tell when he's mad at you?
Flint McCullough : He takes a potshot at ya.
[She giggles]
Penny Davis : Golly, Flint, I hope you stay around awhile. It's fun.
Flint McCullough : Well, I gotta hang around until the Eastbound stage pulls in. If I don't bring those newspapers back to the Major, he'll skin me alive.
Penny Davis : He wouldn't do that.
Flint McCullough : Well, he would if he was mad enough.
[He smirks as he sets up his next joke]
Penny Davis : I know. I'm supposed to say: How can you tell if he's mad enough? But I'm not going to.
Flint McCullough : Penny, I wish I got 'round here more often. You and I could take long rides like this, have serious talks like this.
-
Flint McCullough : Well, you be a good girl when you get to Philadelphia, you hear.
Penny Davis : I won't be a saint, Flint. But I'll be as good as I can.
Flint McCullough : Okay... Now, wait a minute. You're not going to need these where you're going.
Penny Davis : 'Cause not, Flint. I'm gonna get me those big city fancy ones with the golden edges.
Martha : And she's going to teach me how to play Blackjack.
