Marshall Strickland: All right now, break it up. What's all this about? You causing trouble here, Tannen?

Buford: No trouble, Marshall. Just a little personal matter between me and Eastwood. This don't concern the law.

Marshall Strickland: Tonight everything concerns the law - now break it up. Any brawling, there's 15 days in the county jail.

He lowers his rifle and talks to the crowd.

Marshall Strickland: Come on, this is a party! Come on, let's have some fun!

The music starts playing again and the dancing resumes. Buford goes to Marty.

Buford: 8 o'clock. Monday. You ain't here, I'll hunt you and shoot you down like a duck.

Gang Member 1: It's dog, Buford. Shoot 'im down like a dog.

Buford is upset that everyone has seen his stupidity.

Buford: Let's go, boys! Let these sissies have their party!

They leave and Doc talks to Marty.

Doc: Marty, what are you doing, saying you're going to meet Tannen??

Marty: Doc, don't worry about it! Monday morning, 8am. We're gonna be gone, right?

Doc: Theoretically, yes, but what if the train's late?

Marty hasn't thought of this.

Marty: Late??

Clara arrives at Doc's side again.

Doc: We'll discuss this later.

Marty: No, we'll discuss this now - late?

Clara: Thank you for your gallantry, Mr Eastwood.

Marty tries to be modest.

Marty: No, hey, ma'am.

Clara: Had you not interceded, Emmett might have been shot!

Doc: Marty - (covering) uh, Clint, I'm going to take Clara home.

Two MEN at the party pull Marty to them before he can respond to Doc.

Man 1: You sure set him straight, Mr Eastwood. I'm glad somebody finally got the gumption to stand up to that son of a bitch.

Man 2: You're all right in my book, Mr Eastwood. I'd like to buy you a drink.

Marty: Hey, look, I don't want a drink. It was no big deal.

There is a tap on Marty's shoulder. It's the Colt Gun Salesman. He's holding a Colt Peacemaker and a gun belt.

Colt Gun Salesman: Young man, young man. I'd like you to have this brand new Colt Peacemaker and gun belt, free of charge!

Marty takes them.

Marty: Free?

Colt Gun Salesman: I want everybody to know that the gun that shot Buford Tannen was a Colt Peacemaker.

Marty: Hey, hey, thanks.

Colt Gun Salesman: Of course, you understand that if you lose - I'm taking it back.

The Colt Gun Salesman smiles as he walks off. Marty tries to think of something to say.

Marty: Thanks again.

Marty walks off and meets up with Seamus and Maggie. The three walk together. During the following Marty has a "I don't really need this" look on his face.

Seamus: You had him, Mr Eastwood! You could have just walked away, and nobody would of thought the less of ya for it. All it would have been was words - hot air from a buffoon. Instead you let him rile ya - rile ya into playing his game, his way, playing his rules.

Marty: Seamus, relax, I know what I'm doing.

Maggie: He reminds me of poor Martin.

Seamus: Aye.

Marty: Who?

Seamus: Me brother.

Marty is amazed - there's another Martin McFly? (Note: before Marty ever went back in time, he may have been named after Seamus' brother).

Marty: Wait a minute - you have a brother named Martin McFly?

Seamus: Had a brother. Martin used to let men provoke him into fighting. He was concerned people would think him a coward if he refused. That's how he got a bowie knife shoved through his belly in a saloon in Virginia City. Never considered the future, poor Martin. God rest his soul.

Seamus walks off. Maggie turns to Marty.

Maggie: Sure hope you're considering the future, Mr Eastwood.

She follows her husband. Marty looks after them.
