Lonesome Kid
Why does the Lonesome Kid confess to robbing a train and stealing cattle when he didn't??. Did I miss something?

I have to say, I love the scene so much, I've never bothered to ask myself that question.
Trying to up his street cred, or "plains cred" or whatever, despite being the most tenderfoot SOB you've ever seen.
His name alone makes me crack up.
Yeah that makes sense and yeah I love that scene too.
I took it as a kind of performance art of the day. Maybe a kind of stand-up comedian.
Perhaps taking a bit of advantage of the mentally-challenged "kid."
He probably confessed to everything.
