The Virginian Quote

[Steve meets a man on the road while he is looking for the Virginian, after they are separated.]
Steve: Hey mister, I could use some help.
Man: Whoa. Now how did a young fellow like you get lost? Well, the nearest town is only about --
Steve: No, I'm not looking for a town. What I wanted to ask -
Man: Don't tell me you're looking for work! Ah, you shouldn't have any trouble finding a job this time of year!
Steve: No I'm not looking for work, I'm trying to track down a man.
Man: Somebody robbed you, huh? Probably a railroad tramp. It happens all the time around here.
Steve: It's a friend of mine!
Man: A friend robbed you? Well no wonder you're looking for him! I'll tell you - any man that takes advantage of a friend --
Steve: He didn't rob me. We got separated. Now a farmer sold him a horse a few miles back with out a saddle, and I'm trying to find him.
Man: Who, the farmer?
Steve: My friend. You didn't happen to see him, did you?
Man: How do you expect me to know who your friends are?
Steve: He was riding a horse without a saddle on it. Now, did you happen to see anybody riding a horse without a saddle?
Man: Oh. Haha! No, I haven't seen anybody like that, boy. Well, good luck!!
Steve: I'll need it.
