(MUSIC PLAYING)
2
00:03:02,598 --> 00:03:04,891
I'd like another shot at that prize money.
3
00:03:04,976 --> 00:03:06,268
Okay for next Sunday?
4
00:03:06,352 --> 00:03:08,270
No, Jim. It ain't okay.
5
00:03:09,730 --> 00:03:12,399
- Now, look, Bice, I know...
- No, you look.
6
00:03:12,483 --> 00:03:15,235
All of my drivers are 18, 19.
7
00:03:15,695 --> 00:03:17,946
You're too old for these kid snorts.
8
00:03:18,030 --> 00:03:19,948
You're liable to get hurt in there.
9
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:22,033
You used to be a big track driver.
10
00:03:22,118 --> 00:03:23,827
Ain't you got no pride?
11
00:03:23,869 --> 00:03:26,705
I ran out of pride when I ran out of cars.
12
00:03:27,623 --> 00:03:29,541
Jim, you gotta look at yourself.
13
00:03:29,583 --> 00:03:31,876
Okay, you start out all right.
You win a couple of tracks,
14
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,211
you think you're on your way.
15
00:03:34,130 --> 00:03:36,131
But it didn't work out, did it?
16
00:03:36,215 --> 00:03:38,633
(TROLLEY BELL RINGS)
17
00:03:42,722 --> 00:03:43,847
Much obliged.
18
00:03:43,889 --> 00:03:45,473
You need any money?
19
00:03:47,476 --> 00:03:48,727
Nope.
20
00:03:50,187 --> 00:03:51,479
Hey...
21
00:03:52,315 --> 00:03:54,274
What do you do with this stuff?
22
00:03:54,984 --> 00:03:56,401
It's for a friend.
23
00:03:58,738 --> 00:04:00,780
(TORCH HISSING)
24
00:04:01,073 --> 00:04:03,074
Hey, how'd it go?
25
00:04:03,284 --> 00:04:04,326
Okay.
26
00:04:05,244 --> 00:04:07,996
- I brought you something.
- Oh, thanks.
27
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,789
Oh, the poor thing.
28
00:04:10,416 --> 00:04:12,417
I'll find a good spot for it.
29
00:04:12,460 --> 00:04:14,127
You got hurt again.
30
00:04:14,211 --> 00:04:15,295
- So?
- One of these days,
31
00:04:15,379 --> 00:04:17,422
you're gonna get wiped out entirely.
32
00:04:18,841 --> 00:04:20,342
Why you gotta be a driver?
33
00:04:20,426 --> 00:04:22,927
Maybe that's not your thing, racing.
34
00:04:23,429 --> 00:04:26,473
How about all those car agencies
down on Van Ness?
35
00:04:26,557 --> 00:04:29,642
I bet that a top mechanic there
gets a lot of good bread laid on him.
36
00:04:29,727 --> 00:04:30,935
What is the matter with everybody?
37
00:04:30,978 --> 00:04:32,645
Can't you understand?
I'm not a mechanic!
38
00:04:32,730 --> 00:04:33,938
I'm a driver!
39
00:04:34,023 --> 00:04:36,149
I know just how you feel, Jim.
40
00:04:36,233 --> 00:04:39,402
Hey, I used to think that I was happy
paintin' flower seeds.
41
00:04:39,445 --> 00:04:43,448
Then one day, inside me,
there was this little voice, says,
42
00:04:43,491 --> 00:04:45,784
"Tennessee Steinmetz."
43
00:04:45,868 --> 00:04:47,160
I said, "What?"
44
00:04:47,244 --> 00:04:49,329
It said, "You ain't happy." Well, I...
45
00:04:49,413 --> 00:04:50,663
Tennessee, would you
tell me something?
46
00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:53,291
Why is it the only thing we ever
have in this house is parrot food?
47
00:04:53,334 --> 00:04:55,293
I mean, we don't have a parrot.
48
00:04:55,378 --> 00:04:56,961
Hey, eat that. That's good.
49
00:04:57,004 --> 00:04:58,254
That's pressed kelp.
50
00:04:58,297 --> 00:05:00,215
That aerates your liver.
51
00:05:00,299 --> 00:05:03,510
Then this voice inside of me
continued as follows...
52
00:05:03,594 --> 00:05:07,389
"This is nowhere.
You gotta make a new scene.
53
00:05:07,473 --> 00:05:09,849
"You gotta change your bag."
54
00:05:09,934 --> 00:05:10,975
That's when I split.
55
00:05:11,018 --> 00:05:16,022
I went to Tibet, to a mountaintop
with swamis and monks.
56
00:05:16,816 --> 00:05:18,817
I discovered my real self.
57
00:05:20,486 --> 00:05:21,861
It was wonderful.
58
00:05:22,863 --> 00:05:25,198
I don't have to go to Tibet.
59
00:05:25,658 --> 00:05:27,367
I know who I am.
60
00:05:29,912 --> 00:05:31,329
I know what I want.
61
00:05:31,914 --> 00:05:35,417
Hey, there are dirt-track races
at a carnival near Bakersfield this week.
62
00:05:35,501 --> 00:05:37,502
If I can get over there,
I can pick up a couple of bucks.
63
00:05:37,545 --> 00:05:38,670
Okay to use your wheels?
64
00:05:38,754 --> 00:05:40,463
Yeah, okay, but I'm afraid
you're gonna have
65
00:05:40,506 --> 00:05:42,257
a little trouble gettin' it started.
66
00:05:43,926 --> 00:05:45,593
Where's the beast?
67
00:05:47,555 --> 00:05:49,806
You didn't cut up the Edsel?
68
00:05:55,020 --> 00:05:56,980
Came over me all of a sudden.
69
00:05:57,022 --> 00:05:59,190
It was the only decent thing to do.
70
00:06:00,109 --> 00:06:03,695
Believe me, Jim. It'll be happier up there.
71
00:06:04,155 --> 00:06:05,405
(LAUGHS)
72
00:06:15,082 --> 00:06:16,749

73
00:06:32,558 --> 00:06:33,725

(KNOCKS)
75
00:06:38,731 --> 00:06:40,106
(INAUDIBLE)
76
00:06:53,370 --> 00:06:54,996
Are you all right? Are you dizzy?
77
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,082
Oh, no. Well, there's
a slight racking pain in my head.
78
00:06:58,167 --> 00:07:00,293
Oh, I think you'd better sit down.
79
00:07:00,377 --> 00:07:01,794
I'm really terribly sorry.
80
00:07:02,296 --> 00:07:03,755
Well, it's not your fault.
81
00:07:04,006 --> 00:07:05,089
I didn't mean to startle you.
82
00:07:05,674 --> 00:07:08,301
Looks like you've been running
into all sorts of things lately.
83
00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:11,221
Yeah. Oh, oh, this is just a little...
84
00:07:15,434 --> 00:07:16,684
Oh, lady.
85
00:07:16,936 --> 00:07:18,645
(LAUGHS) Oh, really, sir.
86
00:07:18,729 --> 00:07:19,854
Excuse me.
87
00:07:25,903 --> 00:07:28,154
Over 400 cubes...
88
00:07:28,697 --> 00:07:32,283
Dual quads, all synchro box,
zero to 60 under five.
89
00:07:33,118 --> 00:07:35,453
All right, Miss Bennett,
I'll see to this gentleman myself.
90
00:07:36,288 --> 00:07:37,789
May I be of service, sir?
91
00:07:37,831 --> 00:07:41,543
Uh, I see that you're a person
who appreciates fine things.
92
00:07:41,627 --> 00:07:45,004
You're no doubt aware that this is
the celebrated Thorndyke special.
93
00:07:45,631 --> 00:07:46,798
And allow me to say, sir,
94
00:07:46,882 --> 00:07:49,759
that I think this car
would suit you very well.
95
00:07:49,802 --> 00:07:51,427
Yes. Yes, it would.
96
00:07:51,470 --> 00:07:54,889
Yes, may I offer you
a glass of sherry and a biscuit?
97
00:07:55,224 --> 00:07:56,516
Go right ahead.
98
00:07:56,892 --> 00:07:58,643
I take it that the question of price
99
00:07:58,727 --> 00:08:01,813
does not greatly concern
a gentleman like yourself.
100
00:08:01,855 --> 00:08:03,731
Oh, I wouldn't haggle,
if that's what you mean.
101
00:08:03,816 --> 00:08:06,067
What price range did you have in mind?
102
00:08:06,986 --> 00:08:08,319
About $75.
103
00:08:09,446 --> 00:08:11,739
$75? (LAUGHS)
104
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:13,157
I could go 80 in a pinch.
105
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,034
What do you have in the
way of cheap, honest transportation?
106
00:08:15,494 --> 00:08:17,787
Cheap, honest transportation.
107
00:08:22,334 --> 00:08:24,085
I will bid you good day, sir.
108
00:08:25,337 --> 00:08:26,337
Good day.
109
00:08:27,381 --> 00:08:28,381
Hey.
110
00:08:30,050 --> 00:08:31,050
Havershaw!
111
00:08:31,427 --> 00:08:33,678
Now, where did this come from?
112
00:08:35,014 --> 00:08:36,014
Mr. Thorndyke, yes, sir?
113
00:08:36,056 --> 00:08:38,474
What is this thing doing
in my showroom, may I ask?
114
00:08:38,517 --> 00:08:41,102
Oh, I believe Miss Bennett
may know something about this.
115
00:08:41,186 --> 00:08:45,398
Yes, uh, you remember when Mrs. Van
Luit purchased her new Bentley?
116
00:08:45,482 --> 00:08:48,901
Well, she also requested us to buy
a small used car for her upstairs maid.
117
00:08:49,528 --> 00:08:52,530
Then why isn't her upstairs maid
in her blasted vehicle?
118
00:08:52,573 --> 00:08:54,657
The car was returned
this morning, Mr. Thorndyke.
119
00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:57,035
She was having some kind
of difficulty with it.
120
00:08:57,077 --> 00:08:58,995
- Get it out of here.
- Yes, sir.
121
00:08:59,663 --> 00:09:00,663
(BANG)
122
00:09:01,624 --> 00:09:02,707
What's that for?
123
00:09:03,250 --> 00:09:04,500
I beg your pardon?
124
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:07,378
JIM: Why don't you let
the little car alone?
125
00:09:07,421 --> 00:09:11,090
Are you presuming to tell me what to do
in my own establishment?
126
00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:13,509
Okay, I'm outta line.
127
00:09:13,552 --> 00:09:15,970
It just bugs me to see somebody
abusing a decent piece of machinery.
128
00:09:16,180 --> 00:09:17,555
(LAUGHS) Fascinating.
129
00:09:17,598 --> 00:09:19,724
Well, now that we've had
the benefit of your point of view,
130
00:09:19,808 --> 00:09:21,976
shall we regard our
relationship as terminated?
131
00:09:22,061 --> 00:09:23,061
Havershaw!
132
00:09:23,145 --> 00:09:25,563
Get this eyesore out of my showroom.
133
00:09:25,648 --> 00:09:27,315
And if ever I find it here again,
134
00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:30,652
someone is going to find himself
in a great deal of trouble!
135
00:09:30,736 --> 00:09:32,320
Yes, sir. Watch your knees there, boys.
136
00:09:32,404 --> 00:09:33,905
Here we go.

(GRUNTING)
138
00:09:37,451 --> 00:09:40,078
Sorry. None of my business, is it?
139
00:09:40,162 --> 00:09:42,080
Perfectly all right.
140
00:09:42,122 --> 00:09:44,040
Good-bye.
141
00:09:44,083 --> 00:09:45,750

Good morning.

Good morning. What do you want?

00:10:30,629 --> 00:10:31,963
Right. What do you want?
149
00:10:32,005 --> 00:10:36,134
Forgive me for pointing,
but have you ever seen that car before?
150

JIM: No. No, I haven't.
151

Hey, he's a cute little fella.
152

JIM: Hey, wait a minute.
153
00:10:43,767 --> 00:10:47,353
I think I saw that car
at an agency yesterday.
154
00:10:47,438 --> 00:10:51,065
Now permit me to inform you
of the following.
155
00:10:51,316 --> 00:10:56,112
First, say nothing that would
jeopardize your constitutional rights.
156
00:10:56,613 --> 00:10:59,157
Second, the minute
that you get downtown,
157
00:10:59,241 --> 00:11:01,451
I would advise
that you get a good lawyer.
158
00:11:04,163 --> 00:11:05,580
Shall we go?
159
00:11:05,706 --> 00:11:07,457
Go? What for?
160
00:11:08,584 --> 00:11:10,334
On suspicion of grand theft.
161
00:11:10,961 --> 00:11:15,339
Look, now, wait a minute.
There's something cockeyed about this.
162
00:11:15,924 --> 00:11:17,925
How did that little car get here?
163
00:11:18,010 --> 00:11:21,345
I share your curiosity.
164
00:11:22,055 --> 00:11:23,055
Shall we go?

(LAUGHS)
166
00:11:27,811 --> 00:11:29,520
I'll do it. Okay.
167
00:11:29,563 --> 00:11:33,524
I'll do it, but I just want to go on record.
I have seen some crummy stunts
168
00:11:33,567 --> 00:11:36,778
in my time used to sell cars,
but this beats everything!

We had a chance to make
something out of this world.
372

I could have told you
all this was coming.

What's coming?
385
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:32,159
Jim, it's happening
right under our noses,
386
00:23:32,243 --> 00:23:33,827
and we can't see it.
387
00:23:33,912 --> 00:23:36,788
We take machines,
and we stuff them with information,
388
00:23:36,873 --> 00:23:38,457
until they're smarter than we are.

00:23:40,043 --> 00:23:45,255

and time and money on a car in a week
391
00:23:45,340 --> 00:23:47,883
than they do on their
wife and kids in a year.
392
00:23:47,926 --> 00:23:49,760
Pretty soon, you know what?
393
00:23:49,802 --> 00:23:53,180
The machine starts to think
it is somebody.
394
00:23:54,891 --> 00:23:58,310
I'm not saying that a mechanical thing,
it can't be a friend.
395
00:23:58,394 --> 00:24:00,562
Like, when I was broke one summer,
396
00:24:00,605 --> 00:24:05,067
there was this giant claw machine
in the Sutro Amusement Park.
397
00:24:05,109 --> 00:24:08,779
And it would grab cameras and watches,
and drop them down a hole to me.
398
00:24:08,863 --> 00:24:10,572
And I would hawk them and buy lunch.
399
00:24:10,615 --> 00:24:11,823
- You follow me?
- Yeah, yeah.
400
00:24:12,283 --> 00:24:15,160
I think you were up on
that mountaintop too long.
401
00:24:16,329 --> 00:24:20,624
Contrariwise, the traffic light
down the street hates my guts.
402
00:24:20,667 --> 00:24:23,377
I don't know why,
but in the last six weeks,
403
00:24:23,461 --> 00:24:25,837
I haven't caught anything
but a stop signal.
404
00:24:25,922 --> 00:24:29,466
And it makes me wait six seconds
longer than anybody else. I timed it.
405
00:24:30,843 --> 00:24:33,887
There's things like that
happen to lots of other people, too.
406
00:24:33,972 --> 00:24:36,139
But the other people,
they don't tell no other people,
407
00:24:36,224 --> 00:24:39,142
because the other people
would say, "Ahhh..."
408
00:24:40,687 --> 00:24:42,312
Tennessee,
409
00:24:42,355 --> 00:24:45,440
that traffic light is a lot of nuts and bolts.
410
00:24:45,483 --> 00:24:47,651

one way or the other.

Don't lose your grip, old buddy.
414
00:24:54,576 --> 00:24:55,909
This little car didn't do one thing tonight
415
00:24:55,994 --> 00:24:57,828
that can't be explained
in terms of short circuits,
416
00:24:57,912 --> 00:25:00,706

worn knuckles...
417
00:25:00,790 --> 00:25:02,749

I'll fix it.

420
00:25:06,963 --> 00:25:08,297
I got a beautiful picture.
421
00:25:08,339 --> 00:25:10,841
This baby happens to have
an extra turn of speed,
422
00:25:11,509 --> 00:25:12,676

they make them exactly the same way,
425

turn out to be something special.

out of that sad little bucket of bolts.

00:31:19,710 --> 00:31:21,211
I own most of it anyway, you know.

Well, uh...
521
00:31:24,423 --> 00:31:27,968
I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll take the car
and give you $1,000 clear.
522
00:31:28,052 --> 00:31:29,260
Now what do you say to that?
523
00:31:29,345 --> 00:31:30,845
No! You don't want to do that.
524
00:31:31,013 --> 00:31:33,682
It's all right, Tennessee.
I know what I'm doing.
525
00:31:33,724 --> 00:31:36,935
I think Mr. Thorndyke is a little mixed up
as to who or what won that race.
526
00:31:37,395 --> 00:31:38,395
And what does that mean?
527
00:31:38,646 --> 00:31:41,773
Someday I'll teach you not to confuse
the car with the driver.
528
00:31:42,066 --> 00:31:43,900
I should welcome the opportunity.
529
00:31:43,985 --> 00:31:46,903
Mr. Thorndyke, I think that's
a very good idea of yours.
530
00:31:46,946 --> 00:31:47,946
What is?
531
00:31:48,030 --> 00:31:51,157
You're racing in the Libra Open
at Riverside the end of the month, right?
532
00:31:51,242 --> 00:31:52,242
Yes.
533
00:31:52,284 --> 00:31:53,702
I'm sure that Mr. Douglas
would like to get
534
00:31:53,744 --> 00:31:55,704
the remainder of
his payments off his back.
535
00:31:55,746 --> 00:31:56,746
No doubt.
536
00:31:56,831 --> 00:31:58,540
But why should I think
that's such a good idea?
537
00:31:58,582 --> 00:32:02,377
Well, if Mr. Douglas entered the race,
he could bet his share of the little car
538
00:32:02,420 --> 00:32:04,045
against the remaining payment.
539
00:32:04,755 --> 00:32:06,172
THORNDYKE:
What do you say, Douglas?
540
00:32:06,382 --> 00:32:09,300
Winner to become
the sole owner of the car.
541
00:32:14,098 --> 00:32:16,933
A moment ago you mentioned
teaching me a lesson.
542
00:32:16,976 --> 00:32:19,686
Do I now detect a note of timidity?

That's the name of the game, isn't it?
545

Win or lose, put up or shut up.
546
00:32:26,902 --> 00:32:28,653
You got yourself a deal, Thorndyke.
547
00:32:28,738 --> 00:32:29,738
Splendid.
548
00:32:32,825 --> 00:32:34,367
The drivers' meeting is over.
549
00:32:34,452 --> 00:32:37,787
Now the third race of the afternoon
will get underway here at Riverside.

right under my nose.
868
00:51:55,737 --> 00:51:57,446
- Where's Jim?
- Don't know.
869
00:51:57,739 --> 00:51:59,781
He went out as soon as we got back.
870
00:51:59,824 --> 00:52:01,158
Didn't say a word.
871
00:52:01,576 --> 00:52:03,535
Left Herbie and me flat.
872
00:52:03,620 --> 00:52:05,495
Doesn't he take care of his car
after a race?
873
00:52:06,456 --> 00:52:07,706
Can you do something?
874
00:52:09,292 --> 00:52:10,792
Like what?
875
00:52:11,461 --> 00:52:14,046
Well, uh, help the little car.
876
00:52:14,130 --> 00:52:16,423
I'm not a mechanic,
but I think it's suffering.
877
00:52:18,092 --> 00:52:19,134
Suffering?
878
00:52:19,427 --> 00:52:20,427
Please.
879
00:52:22,430 --> 00:52:24,556
Mind if I use those coveralls?
880
00:52:24,641 --> 00:52:25,766
Right.
881
00:52:25,808 --> 00:52:30,646
Oh, uh, look, I want to tell you
so you don't have to worry.
882
00:52:30,730 --> 00:52:32,481
I'm not with Peter Thorndyke anymore.
883
00:52:32,523 --> 00:52:34,524
I don't think his way.
884
00:52:34,609 --> 00:52:36,235
Oh, I know that.
885
00:52:36,319 --> 00:52:37,319
How do you know?
886
00:52:38,029 --> 00:52:41,365
Well, Herbie wouldn't like you,
otherwise.
887
00:52:42,659 --> 00:52:44,159
Herbie wouldn't like me?
888
00:52:45,161 --> 00:52:46,328
Miss Bennett...
889
00:52:46,371 --> 00:52:48,497
I gotta level with somebody.
890
00:52:48,539 --> 00:52:49,581
I can't talk to Jim.
891
00:52:49,666 --> 00:52:51,833
Oh, it would destroy him.
892
00:52:51,918 --> 00:52:55,212
You don't know what it was like
before the little car came along.
893
00:52:55,713 --> 00:52:57,714
Jim was defeated. It was murder.
894
00:52:57,799 --> 00:52:59,091
He couldn't get a job.
895
00:52:59,175 --> 00:53:00,217
He got into trouble.
896
00:53:00,301 --> 00:53:02,678
Everybody was on his back.
897
00:53:02,720 --> 00:53:05,180
Then Herbie came into his life.
898
00:53:05,223 --> 00:53:06,223
You remember that day?
899
00:53:07,392 --> 00:53:08,725
I remember.
900
00:53:09,352 --> 00:53:12,396
Well, Jim started winning races again,
901
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,190
he got his self-respect back.
902
00:53:15,275 --> 00:53:17,067
What am I gonna do?
903
00:53:17,151 --> 00:53:19,945
Tell him that it was Herbie
winning those races, not him?
904
00:53:22,490 --> 00:53:23,865
Uh, was it Herbie?
905
00:53:24,367 --> 00:53:26,410
Well, I...
906
00:53:27,203 --> 00:53:28,620
You fix the little car.
907
00:53:28,705 --> 00:53:30,914
I'll tell you what's going on.
908
00:53:31,541 --> 00:53:33,292
I didn't know nothing.
909
00:53:33,376 --> 00:53:35,502
Then I went to Tibet.
910
00:53:35,545 --> 00:53:38,338
I plugged into this contemplation thing...

(RUNNING SMOOTHLY)
912
00:53:43,678 --> 00:53:44,886
How's that sound?
913
00:53:44,971 --> 00:53:47,222
Like the song of a bluebird.
914
00:53:50,226 --> 00:53:53,562
Well, the fuel lines are clean,
plugs are clean, wiring checks out.
915
00:53:53,604 --> 00:53:55,689
Looks like we're in pretty good shape.
916
00:53:56,024 --> 00:53:58,025
Herbie and I sure appreciate it.
917
00:54:01,237 --> 00:54:04,531
You don't believe a word I said
about this little car, do you?
918
00:54:06,075 --> 00:54:07,993
Well, there's always a first time.
919
00:54:09,579 --> 00:54:13,040
I imagine Adam thought woman
was a pretty funny piece of equipment
920
00:54:13,082 --> 00:54:14,750
when he met Eve.
921
00:54:14,792 --> 00:54:16,460
Well, that's a start.
922
00:54:16,544 --> 00:54:18,045
You can't believe it all right away.
923
00:54:18,087 --> 00:54:19,755
It takes time.

What's this?
927
00:54:51,788 --> 00:54:53,330
You ever see anything so beautiful?
928
00:54:53,414 --> 00:54:54,414
Very nice.
929
00:54:54,457 --> 00:54:56,249
What's the big idea?
You already got a car.
930
00:54:56,292 --> 00:54:57,793
Not after what happened today I don't.
931
00:54:57,835 --> 00:54:59,878
Ah, shut up. You want
Herbie to hear you?
932
00:54:59,962 --> 00:55:02,381
Now don't start that again, Tennessee.
933
00:55:03,466 --> 00:55:05,175
Look, the El Dorado is coming up.
934
00:55:05,259 --> 00:55:08,678
There are real cars lined up in there.
I need something that can cut it.
935
00:55:08,763 --> 00:55:10,806
- Herbie's cut it so far, hasn't he?
- Of course he has!
936
00:55:10,890 --> 00:55:12,391
Now, hold it, you two.
937
00:55:12,475 --> 00:55:15,602
I've done great with this little car so far,
thanks to a few changes I made
938
00:55:15,645 --> 00:55:18,480
and, if you don't mind,
some pretty fair country driving.
939
00:55:18,523 --> 00:55:21,108
But I gotta stop kidding myself.
940
00:55:21,150 --> 00:55:23,860
I need a big, strong car.
941
00:55:23,945 --> 00:55:25,529
Now I got it.
942
00:55:27,490 --> 00:55:30,158
Don't pay any attention.
Don't even look at it.

Hello?

00:55:36,290 --> 00:55:37,874
Peter Thorndyke here.
947
00:55:38,376 --> 00:55:39,918
Well, well.
948
00:55:41,003 --> 00:55:43,004
Yeah, yeah, Thorndyke,
I know what you did to my car.
949
00:55:43,089 --> 00:55:44,506
You need your brains kicked out.
950
00:55:44,924 --> 00:55:46,633
Well, you can imagine how I must feel.
951
00:55:46,676 --> 00:55:49,261
You see, I'm simply not responsible
when I've been drinking.
952
00:55:49,345 --> 00:55:50,512
You know how it is.
953
00:55:50,596 --> 00:55:51,805
Forget it. And good-bye.
954
00:55:51,848 --> 00:55:53,515
Wait, wait, wait.
955
00:55:53,975 --> 00:55:55,600
I understand from a friend of mine
956
00:55:55,685 --> 00:55:58,019
that you purchased
a new Lamborghini today.
957
00:55:58,146 --> 00:55:59,146
So?
958
00:55:59,522 --> 00:56:02,566
I'm also informed that you owe
a great deal of money on it.
959
00:56:02,650 --> 00:56:06,111
Now, myself, for sentimental reasons,
I like the little car,
960
00:56:06,195 --> 00:56:09,364
and I'm perfectly willing
to increase my previous offer
961
00:56:09,407 --> 00:56:11,867
and give you $1,500 for it.
962
00:56:11,951 --> 00:56:14,035
Now, immediately.
963
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,787
I'm in the vicinity.
964
00:56:15,872 --> 00:56:17,956
Thorndyke, I don't like you.
965
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,125
But I can use your money.
966
00:56:20,209 --> 00:56:21,877
You got yourself a deal. Come and get it.
967
00:56:22,378 --> 00:56:24,129
What do you mean
you got yourself a deal?
968
00:56:24,213 --> 00:56:25,714
- I'm selling the little car.
- You're what?
969
00:56:25,798 --> 00:56:28,758
Don't make a fuss. I need the money.
970
00:56:29,886 --> 00:56:31,761
You crumb! You can't do that to Herbie!
971
00:56:33,431 --> 00:56:35,182
Carole, will you tell him how it is?
972
00:56:35,224 --> 00:56:37,100
Out in the real world?
973
00:56:38,227 --> 00:56:39,853
Me? Ha!
974
00:56:39,896 --> 00:56:43,773
Well, near as I can figure it,
I'm not too smart either.
975
00:56:43,858 --> 00:56:46,443
I get rid of one heel
just in time to find another.
976
00:56:47,153 --> 00:56:50,280
Well, now, what happened to you?
I thought you'd be on my side.
977
00:56:50,531 --> 00:56:52,741
Not when you do something
like this to Herbie.
978
00:56:55,620 --> 00:56:58,163
Has everybody gone nuts around here?
979
00:56:58,539 --> 00:57:00,123
I can understand how Tennessee feels.
980
00:57:00,208 --> 00:57:04,044
He's just in off a flying saucer.
But you... I thought you made sense.
981
00:57:04,587 --> 00:57:08,632
Something tells me
it's very, very wrong to sell that little car.
982
00:57:08,716 --> 00:57:11,218
Well, thank you for your opinion,
but what am I supposed to do?
983
00:57:11,260 --> 00:57:12,677
Now, I need the money.
984
00:57:12,762 --> 00:57:13,845
Tennessee, if I don't sell...
985
00:57:13,930 --> 00:57:15,305
Don't talk to me.
986
00:57:19,310 --> 00:57:21,102
I'm... I'm sorry.
987
00:57:21,771 --> 00:57:22,771
I shouldn't have butted in.
988
00:57:23,272 --> 00:57:24,731
You're absolutely right.
989
00:57:24,774 --> 00:57:26,650
As a matter of fact, I don't know...
990
00:57:26,734 --> 00:57:28,693
What are you doing here?
991
00:57:29,529 --> 00:57:31,071
I wish I knew.
992
00:57:31,113 --> 00:57:33,532
I really wish I knew!

(BANGING)
994
00:57:35,576 --> 00:57:38,453
If I weren't so young and innocent,
a certain thought might enter my mind.
995
00:57:39,872 --> 00:57:41,122
Such as?
996
00:57:41,165 --> 00:57:42,874
Such as you went out with me last night
997
00:57:42,959 --> 00:57:44,960
so that Thorndyke could get
a shot at the little car.
998
00:57:45,044 --> 00:57:47,295
Is that what you think?
999
00:57:47,755 --> 00:57:48,922
You gotta admit it's tempting.
1000
00:57:49,215 --> 00:57:52,968
Okay. Okay, you want to know
what I was doing here?
1001
00:57:53,010 --> 00:57:55,136
Well, I felt sorry about
what happened today.
1002
00:57:55,179 --> 00:57:58,431
So I quit Thorndyke and came over here
like a full-grown idiot
1003
00:57:58,474 --> 00:58:00,642
to find out if I could make up
for it in some way.
1004
00:58:00,726 --> 00:58:02,602
Well, isn't that a beautiful
thought for the day?
1005
00:58:02,645 --> 00:58:03,812
Very touching. Makes me glow.
1006
00:58:07,942 --> 00:58:11,236
I think it's just about time
someone told you what the score is.
1007
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:12,779
You see, Tennessee's
too tenderhearted.
1008
00:58:13,114 --> 00:58:15,282
You really think it was you
winning those races?
1009
00:58:15,575 --> 00:58:17,242
Yes, I think it was me winning...
1010
00:58:17,326 --> 00:58:19,077
What do you mean
it wasn't me winning...
1011
00:58:19,161 --> 00:58:20,245
Pardon me.
1012
00:58:20,329 --> 00:58:21,538
All right. Do you want me
to tell you something,
1013
00:58:21,622 --> 00:58:22,664
my windbag friend?
1014
00:58:22,707 --> 00:58:25,333
I admit, I didn't believe it
when Tennessee told me before,
1015
00:58:25,418 --> 00:58:27,586
but now I see it makes all kinds of sense.
1016
00:58:27,670 --> 00:58:29,004
What?
1017
00:58:29,046 --> 00:58:30,839
That thimble head of yours
has gotten all swelled up.
1018
00:58:30,923 --> 00:58:32,591
You're not winning any of those races.
1019

You couldn't win a game of marbles
from a 12-toed myopic rhinoceros!

00:58:35,344 --> 00:58:38,013
Let me... Will you knock it off
out there, Tennessee?
1021
00:58:38,055 --> 00:58:39,264
Can't hear myself think.
1022
00:58:39,348 --> 00:58:41,600
I'm not out there, crumb, I'm here.
1023
00:58:41,684 --> 00:58:43,935
Well, hold it down. I'll...

No!

Stop it! Stop it!
You don't know what you're doing!

Look! Look what it did to my car!
1029
00:59:02,955 --> 00:59:04,706
Okay, okay, maybe it was a little jealous!
1030
00:59:04,790 --> 00:59:06,541
Of course it's jealous.
It's always been jealous
1031
00:59:06,584 --> 00:59:09,044
because I get credit
for winning those races.
