Give me some of the good stuff.
EXT. ALLEY/STREET – SILVERADO – DAY
Augie is standing circus-style on the saddle of the pinto as he rides down the alley. As he approaches the main street,
his foot slips, and he bumps down hard into the saddle. The horse is barely in his control as he bounces out into the
busier thoroughfare, and into the path of — An imposing phalanx of four horsemen: Hoyt, Scruffy, SWANN, and their
boss, ETHAN MCKENDRICK. The pinto shies as the horsemen pull up abruptly.
AUGIE
Sorry ’bout that.
Swann looks with interest at the pinto, then reaches out and grabs the reins from Augie’s hand.
AUGIE
Hey!
SWANN
Where’d you get this horse, kid?
AUGIE
This is my uncle’s horse.
SWANN
The hell it is.
MCKENDRICK
(irritable)
What’s the problem, Swann?
Emmett steps off the sidewalk on the other side of the street and approaches the group, his eyes on McKendrick.
EMMETT
Yeah, what’s the problem?
McKendrick turns at the sound of Emmett’s voice. Something powerful flicks through his eyes, but not too many people would see it.
MCKENDRICK
Emmett.
EMMETT
McKendrick.
Hoyt eyes Emmett, who seems familiar. Emmett looks at Swann in such a way that Swann releases the reins of the pinto.
