Quotes

Flash Baldwin: Hank and I were beginning to get worried when you didn't show up, Wolf. We thought maybe you'd run into the law again.
Wolf Benson: I did. The prison break worked out just as you had it framed, but I ran smack into a sheriff's posse. If I hadn't caught the hind end of the Limited and traded places with Autry, I'd be stretched with a rope by now.
Flash Baldwin: This Autry is a radio singer, isn't he?
Wolf Benson: He was until I knocked him out and threw his body out the train window. Now Wolf Benson's dead and I'm Gene Autry!
