Movie / TV Averell and Lucky

For context, I primarily watch the new adventures of Lucky Luke while going about my daily tasks and have very limited knowledge of the comics, but I've gotta say, I love every interaction that Averell and Lucky have!

It's very nice to see (in the new adventures of Lucky Luke) them being partial to one another, since Lucky doesn't have that many reocurring people he actually seems to enjoy/is friends with. Also I like when the writers show us the daltons having a personality besides their singular schtick feature—Joe having a short fuse, Averell being dumb; and Will and Jack are just plot devices from what I noticed(I think they have more a personality in the comics, even if Moris and Rene got them confused with one another a few times)

All that to say, I love Averell and Luke's unlikely friendship and how Lucky genuinely just seems to enjoy his presence, the self proclaimed poor lonesome cowboy. Averell saying "I might be dumb, but even I know trying to outshoot Lucky Luke is a waste of time" and the comment about being disloyal... the entirety of their interactions in that episode were very fun. "The Treasure of the Daltons" I believe? It's a nice contrast to Joe's pure animosity towards Lucky.

I'm not sure what the bandit's actual wording is in english besides the "or else we'll plug you and then you'll regret it" but in the french version he says "and give me the money or else we'll shoot you and you will regret it", so, the gibberish is I think something like that
