Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: So, you're really leaving?
Charles Wentworth: Yup. Let's say the uh, second best man has won.
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: Well, I thought you newspapermen lived by a code.
Charles Wentworth: Code of honor? You've got that wrong. If you think I've taken dishonorable advantage of you over Cathy, we can settle that one too.
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: Let's skip that. There's something else I had in mind. What about a newspaperman never running out on a story?
Charles Wentworth: What story?
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: The biggest story you've ever had a chance to cover?
Charles Wentworth: Are you serious?
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: President Grant's coming out here.
Charles Wentworth: Grant?
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: To sit under a tree and hold a counsel for peace with Sitting Bull.
Charles Wentworth: So that's it. You're forgetting Parrish. I could telegraph that story in without interrupting a single plan for the wedding.
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: Yes, you could. But that information is top military secret. Telegraph it and you'll see me put against a wall in front of a firing squad. Do what you think's best
