Bicycle Salesman Steals the Posse, Explained：no foolin'
Butch and Sundance joke about enlisting and swap their real names. Then a bicycle salesman hijacks the marshal's posse speech, claiming the machine will 'change your whole life for the better.' The fight isn't over crime or the law; it's over who gets the crowd's attention as the old West starts to disappear.

What's really going on
Underneath the banter, both men are quietly taking stock. Butch's plan to enlist is absurd on its face—two wanted outlaws imagining themselves as officers—and Sundance's 'You just keep thinkin', Butch. That's what you're good at!' is affectionate mockery, not agreement. The real tension arrives with the salesman, whose pitch that the bicycle is 'the future mode of transportation for this western world' points at something neither man wants to name: the world that made them is ending. The marshal needs a posse; the salesman sells progress. Butch and Sundance are standing in the middle of both, still joking, still watching.
Theme
IdentityTwo outlaws trade their real names, Robert LeRoy Parker and Harry Longbaugh, as easily as they trade jokes.
FriendshipTheir teasing and the line about mutual respect show a partnership that survives every absurd plan.

このシーンについての質問
Why do Butch and Sundance talk about enlisting in the army?
They're broke, bored outlaws half-joking about a respectable way out. Butch argues that their 'experience, maturity, leadership' would make them officers, which is the joke.
What does "no foolin'" mean?
It's old-fashioned slang for "really?" or "you're not kidding?"—said when someone tells you something surprising. Both men use it when they hear each other's real names.
Why does the salesman keep interrupting the marshal?
He sees a gathered crowd as a chance to sell bicycles. He insists the horse is finished and that his machine 'sells itself,' even while the marshal is trying to recruit a posse.
Are Robert LeRoy Parker and Harry Longbaugh their real names?
Yes. The scene reveals Butch's real name as Robert LeRoy Parker and Sundance's as Harry Longbaugh—so when they joke about being "Major Parker" or "Major Longbaugh," the names are genuine.
Why does Fanny's message matter to Butch?
Someone tells Butch that Fanny wants him at her party right away, pulling him away from the marshal's speech. Not long after, one of them says he'll saddle up and go looking for a woman.
