* ScaredOfWhatsBehindYou: the Baltimore Kid attempts to cow some cowhands who have been FiringInTheAirALot with his reputation. The cowboys aren't impressed and are about to throw down, but Nash tells them that he always finds it advisable to look heavenwards before starting trouble. The leader does so, and immediately backs down, as he sees Agnew and Fitch on the roof with a rifle and a shotgun aimed at them. The Kid thinks it is his reputation that caused the change of mind.

Four retired Texas Rangers -- Nash Crawford (Brennan), Jason Fitch (Buchanan), Amos Polk (Devine), and Gentleman George Agnew (Wills) -- leap to the aid of their old chum the Baltimore Kid (Astaire). The Kid has become a hopeless drunk, and they aim to clean him up and install him as marshal of Waco, Texas. But in order to complete the job, the geriatric quartet will have to help the Kid defeat the outlaw gang that wants him dead.
