After escaping the townspeople, Billy comes across Frank's cabin. Frank comes outside to greet him, and asks him if he found the Gold of Juarez. Billy retorts that it is nothing but a fairy tale. Frank, misunderstanding him, tells him "Mum's the word". Frank goes out into the yard to repair a wagon, while Billy sneaks into the cabin. As he picks up a box of pistol ammunition, Frank comes in pointing "Lucy" at him. Frank begins to go berserk, and Billy jumps out the window, sliding down an embankment, and escapes as Frank opens fire on him.
