[walking behind Joe Bass and his horse]
What about me, sir? Joe Bass:
I'll just sell you to the highest bidder. Joseph Lee:
Could you mske that to a Comanche, sir? Joe Bass:
You seem to have an uncommon prejudice against service to the white-skinned race! Joseph Lee:
I don't mean to be narrow in my attitude. Could I ask you what's your name, sir? Joe Bass:
Joe Bass. Joseph Lee:
Well, Mr. Bass, couldn't you kind of consider me a captured Comanche? Joe Bass:
[both Joe Bass and his horse turn around and do a 'take'] Joseph Lee:
I came on my own two feet as far as those Comanches. It was my intent to circle south as far as Mexico. The Mexicans have a law against the slavery trade, and since those Indians captured me from other Indians. I have now got full Indian citizenship. Joe Bass:
Joseph Lee, you ever study the law? Joseph Lee:
No, sir. Joe Bass:
Well, neither did I, but you ain't got a chance in hell of calling yerself an Indian! You're an African slave by employment, black by color!

Movie Summary
Forced to trade his valuable furs for a well-educated escaped slave, a rugged trapper vows to recover the pelts from the Indians and later the renegades that killed them.
