* AndYourLittleDogToo: Lampshaded when corrupt town sheriff Cobb indicates to Paden that he'll harm Stella if Paden moves against him, even though Cobb acknowledges she has nothing whatsoever to do with their dispute. He does however know Paden (whom he used to work with when they were robbers) got caught while protecting a wounded dog he'd previously claimed to despise, so figures the threat will make Paden back off. It works at first, but Stella figures out what's happened and talks Paden into fighting Cobb anyway.

** When Paden and Emmett first see Mal he is being the victim of gross discrimination and then the Saloon owner tries to tell the Sheriff that Mal caused all the problems. Both are clearly disgusted by this and have no problem setting the record straight as any decent person would. Then while they’re escaping with Jake Mal returns the favor by shooting at the Sheriff and the Posse. It stands to reason they all would become close.
** Subverted somewhat by having absolutely zero Native Americans. They aren’t even mentioned. For all we know this is in an alternate universe where Native Americans didn’t exist.

* RetiredOutlaw: While never openly acknowledged, all four heroes are quite skilled at shooting and don't seem to be shocked by the idea of killing people, but also have no history as lawmen. The closest we get to confirmation is that Paden is said to have "ridden" with Cobb in their youth, which involved getting arrested.
