ALICE:
(jubilantly)
It means--it means that twenty men are crossing that lawn. It
means that while you sat drinking there, Civilization was racing
toward you at seventy miles an hour!

HATCH:
Damnation! We're trapped. Get to the wagon--quick! No. Leave
the girl alone. We've no time for that. Drop that stuff. That
way. That way.

REDDY:
(at window)
No. Get back! Get back! It's too late. There's hundreds of them
out there.

HATCH:
(running to centre door)
Out here! This way! Quick!

ALICE:
(mockingly)
Yes, come! You don't dare come this way NOW!

(She drags open the curtains, disclosing CAPTAIN LUCAS and two
other policemen. For an instant they stand, covering the burglars
with revolvers. REDDY runs to window. He is seized by an entering
crowd of men in the oil-stained blue jeans of engineers and
brakemen.)
