Jack: Get on in there and untangle 'em Chilean sheep out of ours, I guess.
Jack: Oh, where is it? Shit! God, half the goddamn paint brands havewore off!
Ennis: We gotta try. The least we can do is get the count right for Aguirre.
Jack: Fuck Aguirre!
Ennis: Oh, yeah, fuck Aguirre. What if we need to work for him again? You think of that? We gotta stick this out, Jack.
Ennis: You'll run them sheep off again if you don't quiet down.
Ennis: What are you doing?
Jack: Aguirre came by again. Says my uncle didn't die after all. Says bring 'em down.
Ennis: Bring 'em down, why? It's the middle of August.
Jack: Says there's a storm comin', movin' in from the Pacific. Worse than this one.
Ennis: That snow barely stuck an hour. Huh? Besides, that son of a bitch, he's cuttin' us out a whole month's pay. It ain't right.
Jack: Well, I can spare you a loan, bud, if you're short on cash. Give it to you when we get to Signal.
Ennis: I don't need your money, huh? You know, I ain't in the poorhouse. Shit!
Jack: All right.
