Professor Brad Fletcher:
[planning a bank robbery]
The best time of day to hit the bank is in the early afternoon, because it will have just reopened, and practically no-one will be around. It's too hot at that hour. Everyone will still be at home, taking a siesta. That's one Spanish custom that still survives in these parts. Even the sheriff will be asleep. Naturally, we'll all drift into town, one by one. Aaron will first go to the barbershop. Then, he'll wander over to the post office, which is right next to the bank - because he will have tied up his horse there earlier, when he rode into town. At that point, Jason will arrive, and leave his horse next to Aaron. Both of you will wait right there in front of the post office, so you'll be close enough to move fast when the time comes. At this point, Maximilian will ride into town, dressed like the Southern gentleman he is. Naturally, he'll arouse no suspicion when he walks into the bank, looking like the well-heeled rancher who is accustomed to having the red carpet rolled out for him. Beau is going to cover our getaway. But since there's more chance of his being recognized than any of us, you'll have to be completely disguised. Let's say - as a Mexican. However, it shouldn't be necessary for Beau to lift a finger. I don't anticipate any gunplay. Because if there are any townspeople around when we leave the bank, they're going to be distracted by a hay-wagon that's suddenly caught fire. The plan seems foolproof to me...
