Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: Great chief, will you listen to the words of my chief?
Sitting Bull: Speak.
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: Move your braves across the little river. My chief too has many soldiers. They will come and they'll stop on their side. But neither army must strike a blow while you come to the great white chief with the big counsel.
Sitting Bull: I will say "yes" to this meeting.
[They share a peace pipe]
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: What is your plan, Sitting Bull?
Sitting Bull: My braves will hold their arrows, but your chief must come here. He will meet me between the two armies in the open country.
Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish: You mean bring the president here?
Sitting Bull: If this meeting fails, then both armies will come together. The chiefs in the middle will die first. This is the Indian way
