Speaker 1 (00:18):
A fiery horse with a speed of lighter cloud of dust,
and a hardy, high old silver.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
The Lone Ranger, such.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
A random figure out the place takes us back through
the years in fancy to the wild and untamed estival.
We thrill to another of his exciting adventures. Here he
comes as tried the great horse Silver. The Lone Ranger
rides again, come.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
On Silver, a tile fellow as a dangerous trailer half,
and we must hurry soon.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
In the history of the Southwest, during the time of
the Lone Ranger, there are records of.

Speaker 4 (02:31):
Few outlaws as cruel as the Apache Kid.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
He was raised by white people after.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
The murder of his father. As a result, he had.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
The education of an average white man, though himself a
full blooded Indian. His career of crime began with the
killing of the man who had caused his father's death.
From that point on, his crimes were countless. More than
a score of law men sent to capture him were
murdered by his blazing guns. He was shrewd, completely savage,
and absolutely at all the law.

Speaker 6 (03:02):
So have no lawns in order to get me to me,
pat say kid.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
At the time our story opens, we see the lone
ranger and his faithful Indian companion Tanto, in a small
camp near a spring. They are kneeling beside the unconscious
figure of a badly wounded man.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
The masked man.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Speaks, there's little hope for him, Tato, that right wound
many bad. If you'd only regain consciousness low enough to
tell us who shut him and tell us.

Speaker 7 (03:48):
Who he is?

Speaker 8 (03:48):
Him?

Speaker 7 (03:49):
Oh man, I know that Kimo Sabi.

Speaker 8 (03:52):
The bullet that struck him went right through his deputy
sheriff's badge.

Speaker 7 (03:55):
We hear in a long time. Now him not open? Aye?
Two days?

Speaker 8 (04:01):
Tuto, not right, he's been unconscious all the time.

Speaker 7 (04:05):
I don't understand what d The.

Speaker 8 (04:09):
Clothes this man is wearing costs a lot of money,
a lot more than the deputy sheriff can afford that right,
And he's old man his age, wearing clothes of this
sort and wearing the badge of a deputy sheriff. Called
for some explanation.

Speaker 7 (04:22):
Oh, listen to him. Isn't there something we can do?

Speaker 9 (04:28):
Tom, don't do all Indian? No, Hi, I miss tutter
he's speaking, mm Hi, I missed my my chance.

Speaker 8 (04:42):
Take it easy, friend, We're doing the best we can
to help you.

Speaker 10 (04:46):
You your a friend, Yes, who shut you and left
your hair like this? I I'm Tom Reynolds.

Speaker 7 (04:57):
Do you know the name Tom Reynold.

Speaker 10 (05:01):
You go go see sheriff Sheriff Burns, Sheriff Burns of
Callaway County. Right, he he'll know, he'll know. Just tell
him Tom Reynolds missed his chance.

Speaker 7 (05:20):
Tell me who shot you?

Speaker 10 (05:22):
The the kid, the Apache kid.

Speaker 7 (05:29):
I missed my chance. Tatter, Wait gone, Matt, right now
we take him home.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
Not just yet. I'm going to call on the sheriff.
I want to find out about Tom Reynolds. Here's Silver,
Wait till me kill us?

Speaker 8 (05:55):
Ab yep, Well, I'm gone also going to find out
about the Apache kid.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Come on Silver.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
At the county stat Sheriff Burns had been worried by
the absence of his deputy.

Speaker 7 (06:20):
Tom Reynolds.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
We see the sheriff in his office speaking about the
matter to another deputy.

Speaker 8 (06:25):
And you still ain't found no track of Reynolds. Us saying,
nor are you a sign of him, Sheriff Burns.

Speaker 11 (06:30):
It beats me how he could just drop clear out
of sight.

Speaker 7 (06:33):
Right, he's done.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
He was getting told to be a deputy, but Dad rather.

Speaker 8 (06:36):
What's a man in my position to do with a
quitter like old Tom?

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Too bad? He ate more deputies like me? You? What
time you too? What's the last two guns?

Speaker 7 (06:48):
All?

Speaker 4 (06:49):
Right? Stranger?

Speaker 8 (06:50):
Seeing as you aim to stick your nicking a noose
by busting in here masked and throwing guns on us,
have you say? But consider yourself under arrest? I'm here,
Sheriff Burns for information. Well you have a but he
named Tom Reynolds.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, what do you know about him? You say? Did
I have a deputy? I still got one named Tom Reynolds.
He's out. Don Reynolds met the Apache kid hot, the
Apache kid, that dirty pole cat? Did I tell you anymore?
Answer me? Just one question? Is the Apache kid alive?
As far as I know he is? That means that
old Tom ain't.

Speaker 8 (07:22):
He lived for several days after the Apache kid shot him?
Where's he at now? Twenty miles from here and in Arroyo?
My friend and I stayed with him, but there wasn't
a chance for him to pull through.

Speaker 11 (07:32):
One more mark again the kid, Sheriff. If ever I
get the chance to line my gun sights on that
red skin, I swear he won't be standing no trial.

Speaker 8 (07:41):
By all stranger heard you anyhow, that's unimportant. The important thing, Sheriff,
is to get the Apache kid. That's what poor old
Tom give up his life doing. Poor you mean, oh,
he had a plenty of cash. In fact, he was
about the richest man that lived in these parts.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
But he was still a depity. And despite his agent.

Speaker 8 (07:58):
Yeah, you see, five years ago, the Apache kid got
Old Tom's son, he did.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (08:04):
Then Tom vowed that he'd get the kid and fetch
him in alive to stand trial.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
He didn't want to shoot him.

Speaker 8 (08:10):
He wanted him alive so as he could let him
know that the shooting of Dave Reynolds was what led
his downfall.

Speaker 11 (08:15):
Gosh, I'll never forget Old Tom vowling over his boy's
dead body that he'd get the kid or die a trying.

Speaker 7 (08:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (08:23):
And the Apache kid never noted was Dave Reynolds that
they drilled at the mace of that time.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
That's the main thing Old Tom hope for.

Speaker 11 (08:29):
I'll never forget how he'd practice the things he wanted
to tell the Apache kid when when he finally brought
him in.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
I can see him now standing right there in that corner.

Speaker 11 (08:39):
Sheriff remember telling us how he aimed to say, when
you shut my boy, you started me on your trail,
and it's that lad's murder that will put the noose
around your neck, Poor old Tom.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Did the Apache kid know Tom Reynolds was wealthy?

Speaker 8 (08:54):
Can't say what he knowed? Did he know Tom Reynolds
without to avenge his son, don't know that? The kid
just came for the sake of kill him. If you've
seen a larman's badge, he'd shoot and let it go
at that.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Did Tom Reynolds haven't a family?

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Nope, he just lived alone, big house down the road,
apiece all kinds of cash too.

Speaker 8 (09:10):
But don't go on, Who the Sam Hill are you
to come in here and get us to talk like this?

Speaker 4 (09:14):
Sam? You forget his own guns on us. Dog, you're
under arrest, very.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
Well, Burns.

Speaker 8 (09:20):
You want to put me under arrest, you can do so,
but first you're going to listen to my plan. Ah,
have you any means of getting the Apache kid? Well,
they're all are showing a lookout for you, mister, tain't
off and a man wins my confidence. But there's something
about you of the mask, Yes, Dad, rat it and
spite of the mask, and listen to my plan. We'll
talk in the first place. Tom Reynolds is not dead,

(09:42):
said that only four men know the truth. The Apache
Kid left him alive. H Tantoo, who is he? An
Indian friend of mine? Toto and I know the truth,
and now you two men, but no one.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Else will know. I don't Savy.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
You will listen to what I'm going to suggest. The
lone ranger explained his plan. Sheriff Burns and his deputy listened.
Then when he finished, the masked man mounted silver and
returned to the place where he left.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Toto Hodo, Ah, you come back plenty pass.

Speaker 8 (10:21):
There's a lot to be done, Toddle, you see, Sharon, Yes,
I learned a lot about Tom Reynolds and the Apache Kid.

Speaker 7 (10:28):
He look round here.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Yes, fine, trail a trail hatche kid trail, But it's
days old. Now do you think you can follow it? Maybe?
Aunt O, try you can, Tallo. It'll make my plan
lot easier. Haunt or try follow trail. We've got to
find the Apache Kid. Tom Reynolds was the richest man
in the county. Huh when the Apache Kid left him,
he was alive. The kid wouldn't know he's dead unless

(10:52):
he stayed close to us him not close. He followed
trail long way and come back here wait for you.

Speaker 8 (11:00):
I found out where Tom Reynolds lived Tato and discussed
the plan when the sheriff burns. He's willing to try
that plan, Matt good I I'm going to take the
badge off the deputy bullet hole in bang.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Yes, but I can use it just the same what
you want tontu do. First of all, follow that trail
and find the Apache kid. Then petch kid in. No,
he won't come in alive Tto Huh. He's got to
come in of his own accord or what you say
or send for me.

Speaker 7 (11:27):
Uh uh.

Speaker 8 (11:27):
I'm going to take the place of Tom Reynolds. I'm
going to live in town and his house and wear
his clothes and make myself look as much like him
as possible.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
I'm going to offer a big reward and his name
O Hey, reward.

Speaker 8 (11:39):
No one, Kimosabe, because we are the ones who will
get the Apache kid, and we don't accept rewards.

Speaker 7 (11:45):
Now.

Speaker 8 (11:45):
The first thing is for you to follow the trail,
locate the Apache kid, and after you've found him, tell him.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
Hey, Sam, I want to speak to you. Well, what's
Franklin in your mind? What's come over Tom Raynolds since
he got back? What makes you think anything has can't
get to see him, can't talk to him, or nothing.
He was shot by the Apache kid. No, you don't say, yep,
and lived. His house is occupied in it. Ain't you
heard of the reward?

Speaker 11 (12:20):
He's offering reward ten thousand dollars for the Apache kid?

Speaker 4 (12:24):
Ten thousand? Wow? What's that? Reynolds was shot by the
Apache kid and he lived. He's offering ten thousand reward
for his captured ten thousand dollars. Ten thousand, Yes, here, ee, sheriff,
is is that true? A ten thousand for the Apache kid.

Speaker 11 (12:39):
There's a notice of it, Hey, Sheriff, I got a hammer.
I'll nael a notice on the wall.

Speaker 4 (12:43):
Ten thousand dollars, ten thousand.

Speaker 11 (12:46):
Tom Rydolds offers ten thousand dollars the Apache kid shot Reynelds.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Reynolds is alive. Mom is ten thousand dollars ten dollars.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Sheriff Burns and his deputy had followed their instructions, and
soon everyone in town was talking.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
Excitedly of the reward.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
While the news is being spread, a lone ranger disguised
as Tom Reynolds, stood beside his great horse Silver in
the stables behind the large Reynolds home.

Speaker 8 (13:19):
I think Tom Reynolds is alive, Silver, old boy. I
hope we can carry out the plan, keep him alive,
at least his spirit, so we keep his pledge for him.

Speaker 7 (13:29):
It all depends on Tato.

Speaker 8 (13:30):
If he can trail the Apache Kid to his camp
and carry out his part of the plan.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
There may be a chance. I wonder if Toto Wi'll
be able to follow that trail. If he successful, I
wonder if the Apache Kid will shoot. I'll give Toto
a chance to talk, and I hope the Apache Kid
invites him to sit by his campfire and talk over
a plan to pick up some quick and easy money.

Speaker 12 (13:57):
The curtain falls on the first act of tonight's Lone
Ranger drama. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us
to pause for just a few moments.

Speaker 4 (14:23):
Now to continue our story. You will recall it.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
In the first act of Tonight's Lone Ranger drama, the
masked man in Tanto found Tom Reynolds dying from bullet wounds.

Speaker 4 (14:32):
The Lone Ranger.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Reported Reynold's death to the sheriff and outlined a plan
to bring the Apache kid to justice. Our next scene
opens in the outlaws camp. It is in a fourth
clearing some distance north of town. With the Apache kid
is his wife, an Indian woman who both hates and
fears her husband.

Maybe it takes some We may plan.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Counter played his part exactly as instructed by the Lone Ranger.
While the Apache Kid outlined the scheme to get the
ten thousand dollars reward money Counto suggestions made the outlaws
plot fall into line with the.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
Mask Man's plan.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
The Apache Kid did not realize that he was being tricked.

Speaker 4 (18:32):

of kid get captured. May not take chance Lenty tight
keep you in camp. No Apache kid follow Tonto.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
Ada suspected that the Apache kid might trail him to town. Therefore,
when he reached the Reynolds house, his behavior was designed
to mislead anyone who might be watching him. He dismounted
from the Outlaws mule and rapped on the door, confident
that the lone ranger would carry out the deception.

Speaker 4 (20:26):
Who is it? Me? Friend? Me want talk one minute?
What do you want here this time of night? Me?
Petch noos? All right, step inside the tuto.

Speaker 7 (20:41):

He heard just what he'd expect to hear if I
were really Tom Reynolds.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
Him got whitefellow. Hut huh him ole white feller? If
Tonto doubled cross. But the main thing tdo is he
setting a trap?

Speaker 7 (20:52):
At right?

Speaker 5 (20:53):
Good? Was it hard to get him interested?

Speaker 4 (20:55):
No?

Speaker 7 (20:56):
That not hard?

Speaker 4 (20:57):
What is his plan? You go to old cabin?

Speaker 7 (21:00):
Where is the old cabin?

Speaker 4 (21:01):
Three mile north near creek? You can lead me there,
can't you? Huh? I'm supposed to.

Speaker 8 (21:06):
Thank you captured the Apache kid, and when I see

Speaker 7 (21:10):

Speaker 4 (21:10):
Not right, very well, but him up other scheme? What
other scheme has he hunt?

Speaker 7 (21:15):
Or not know?

Speaker 4 (21:15):
And how do you know he has another scheme?

Speaker 7 (21:17):
Sly look on him face.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
So we'll have to take our chances.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
Hatchee kid plenty smart. He isn't smart, tato nah smart.
No man who thinks he can beat.

Speaker 7 (21:26):
The lowest smart.

Speaker 8 (21:27):
No matter what SCHEMI has in mind, there's one thing
in our favor. What that we are on the side
of justice. That makes a big difference, Chemo Sabi, a
bigger difference than most people realize.

Speaker 7 (21:36):
I'll be ready to go with.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
You as soon as I sin shop.

Speaker 7 (21:38):
Huh.

Speaker 5 (21:39):
Well this disguise passed for Tom Reynolds in the dark.

Speaker 4 (21:42):
It all right, come on, we'll go to the stable.

Speaker 7 (21:45):
Mm hm.

Speaker 4 (21:46):
You don't want to go ahead with this, do your
tato um? They have plenty danger. Well, he can't back
out because of that. Maybe you get lawman. No, there'd
be a gunfight.

Speaker 8 (21:56):
Even if the Apache kid was shot by the lawman,
other men would fall as well. But bat beside huddle,
we are carrying out the pledge Tom Reynold's made to
his son. Where you want to get the Apache kid alive?
He must be made to stand trial, to see and
hear the white man's law.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
In a few moments, Silver was saddled and the lone
ranger still disguised as Tom Reynolds guided his horse down
the trail that led through the woods unto mounted on
the mule road beside him. Counto remained silent throughout the trip.
He feared that his friend was facing what was perhaps
the greatest danger of his career. The Patchack Kidd was
both cruel and cunning, and his capture could be accomplished

(22:41):
only by taking desperate chances.

Speaker 4 (22:44):
Heaven any close now, Yes, and the Apatchi Kid will
surely be that woman Ettie in in wood. Yeah, here
ettie him shoot from m boy, he will do that.
Kimosabe all him want his money? Yes, he isn't sure yet.
I've brought any money with me. He'll not shoot unless
he knows for certain. Let I have the cash. You
not catch, oh tudder. He told me everything he wants

(23:07):
you to do. Uh, he ll all well, then he's
going to be inside the cabin and the pier to
have ropes around his arms. Not right, but really he'll
not be tied. No, and carry out your part of
the plan just as he told you. Here happened he
lighted a candle. Hold that hell?

Speaker 7 (23:26):
Father.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
Oh now I'll talk as if I were Reynolds. Indian.
If you really had that man roped and ready for
delivery to the lawn, you'll get the reward, just as
I promise you. We'll go inside and find out. So
we meet again, you patchick care alive and well you've

(23:47):
kept your word all right, Indian, he'll not have a chance.
What happened for a patchy kid? Hang the apatchie kid.
You know why I want you alive, me not care.
Years ago you shot a man, Dave Reynolds. That time
his father promised to get you or die trying. I
don't want to shoot you. I want to see you
stand trial for murder. You bring money for engine that

(24:10):
caught me? Huh? I didn't say i'd brought the money
with me. Have you? That needn't concern you? A reward
can wait. First of all, I want to make sure
you haven't any weapons concealed. What good work and arms
tight tight appearances are sometimes deceiving. You see empty holsters. Yes,
that engine has my guns? Ray there gun on shelf

(24:31):
very well? Didn't he bring cash in?

Speaker 8 (24:33):
Not telnto, No I didn't bring the cash. No reward
is going to be paid for you, a patche kid,
because this Indian friend of mine doesn't take rewards.

Speaker 4 (24:42):
Your go ahead? Who told the table near the door
you'll welcome the stand against me? What means all right?
He must have me? When I saw the dust disturbed
on the table near the door, I knew he schemed me.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
