Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Assuming you found Cochise, would he listen to you? Would he believe you? Captain Yorke:
Cochise knows me, sir. I've never lied to him. And if you can assure him decent treatment for his people... Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
I'll confess he interests me. These eastern newspapers... I hadn't realized Cochise was so well known. Captain Collingwood:
Oh, he's known. He's had the laugh on every troop in the southwest, these three years. Six campaigns... out-generaled us, out-fought us, out-run us. Captain Yorke:
That's just the point, sir. There aren't enough troops in the whole territory to MAKE Cochise come back. But, one man - a man he trusts - might persuade him. Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Carbine against his spine might be more persuasive. Captain Yorke:
Well, I'll go in unarmed, sir. I can't fight my way in. Either walk in or... Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
[to himself]
The man who brought Cochise back... [to Capt. Yorke] Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
I'm for it, Captain. How many men will you need? Captain Yorke:
One, sir. Sergeant Beaufort. RSM Michael O'Rourke:
Private Beaufort, sir! Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Why him? Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
He speaks Spanish - so does Cochise. My Apache has its limits. Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Shouldn't you take another officer instead? Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Well, Sergeant Beaufort was... RSM Michael O'Rourke:
Private Beaufort, sir! Captain Yorke:
Private Beaufort was a major in the Confederate army... an aide to Jeb Stuart. Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Hmm. I remember "Kaydet" Stuart. He was... Captain Collingwood:
Quite. Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Were you saying something, Captain? Captain Collingwood:
I said, "Quite," sir. Captain Yorke:
I'd like to leave at once if the Colonel has No questions. Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
Hmm? What? Captain Yorke:
Questions, sir? Lt. Col. Owen Thursday:
No. No questions. Proceed, Captain... take your ex-rebel
