Marty then goes to the Palace Saloon, where he orders whiskey after some confusion.
Just as Marty is asking where he can find the local blacksmith, Buford and his gang come in, mistaking him for Seamus.
Marty manages to convince them his name is "Clint Eastwood".
Buford asks the bartender where the blacksmith (Doc) is, and the bartender says he doesn't know where he is.
This causes Marty to realize he's talking to Buford, and he calls him "Mad Dog".
Unfortunately, it turns out that everyone knows Buford gets angry whenever someone calls him "Mad Dog," because almost on cue, every single individual in the saloon either runs away or hides.
Buford immediately pulls out his revolver and begins shooting at Marty's feet to make him "dance."
To distract Buford, Marty begins to moonwalk like Michael Jackson.
However, he accidentally knocks a spittoon full of tobacco juice on Buford.
Now furious, Buford intends to kill Marty, who rushes out of the saloon, but not before Buford and his gang lasso him, and drag him through town, before intending to hang Marty on a pulley and rope at the site of the clocktower building.
However, Marty is saved when Doc appears with a large rifle that "can shoot the flea off a dog's back at 500 yards," and severs the rope with a single shot, freeing Marty.
Buford turns his anger on Doc, unhappy with a shoeing job Doc recently did for one of his horses (a job which Buford didn't pay for).
Buford demands $80 from Doc, as the $75 horse threw one of its horseshoes a few days ago, throwing Buford off, and also causing him to break the $5 bottle of whiskey he was carrying at the time. Buford subsequently shot the horse.
Marty realizes that this is the matter of $80 that Doc's tombstone says he will be killed over.
Buford warns Doc to watch his back, before he and his gang ride off on their horses.
Going over to Marty, Doc is upset that Marty did not follow his instructions, but once they get back to the blacksmith shop, Doc is given the information about his eventual death.
