my old lady for alimony,

I can hardly afford a can of Mountain Dew,

- Listen, man, you smoke some of this herb

and you won't care about alimony, huh?

- I'm not interested
in that garbage, Vito,

That was my old lady, remember?

- Wow, hey man, she's flush,

I mean, I just sold her
some pharmaceutical (sniffs)

and he wants it before the first race,

(Manny sighing)

- Another bimbo,

Nice boobs, though,

I don't need boobs now,
honey, I need a winner,

Oh, where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?

Dubious Dizzy,

A mile, she never raced
a mile in her life,

All of a sudden today she
picks to go the distance,

I don't believe it,

Oh God,

(phone ringing)

speak to Emmanuel Bloom,

Immediately,

I'll see if he's in,

- [Caller] You just go right
ahead and do that, honey,

- (disguises voice) Mr, Bloom?

Mr, Bloom, are you in?
Your wife's on the line,

Mr, Bloom?

I'm sorry, Mrs, Bloom, he
must have left for the day,

- [Caller] Manny, I know it's you,

- (disguises voice) No it's not,

- [Caller] I want my alimony,

- Give me a break, huh,

Between my wife and the horses,

I'm gonna wind up in a
straitjacket in 30 days,

I don't care!

I don't care, I don't care,

I'd rather feed the
horses any day than her,

At least you know where to find them,

(phone ringing)

(disguises voice) I'm sorry, Mrs, Bloom,

Mr, Bloom has not returned,

- Don't try that phony
squeal with me, Manny,

Solly, I thought it was my...

Solly, what do you say, Solly?

- [Sol] You owe me,
buddy, That's what I say,

- Hey, Solly, Solly, baby,

how long have we known each other, huh?

- Longer than my accountant
says we should have,

- Oh, Solly, just give
me a little more time,

That's all I need, just
a little more time,

I'm onto something real big, Solly,

- Don't fool with me, Buddha belly,

What have you got cooking?

- Solly, Solly, I got the youth market,

I got the youth market right
in the grip of my hand,

- Youth market? What
are you talking about?

How am I supposed to make
money in the youth market?

- Solly, the youth market, it's hot,

Everything's coming back,
You got disco contests,

You got, even Hula Hoops is coming back,

What's the matter with you?
Don't you read the papers?

- Yeah, I read, I read, I read plenty,

I don't read much about the youth market,

but I read how you're
not balanced on my books,

Now what do you got
cooking that I'm gonna make

some money on, what's the big idea?

(high-pitched whistling)

- Skateboards,

- Skateboards,

- [Manny] Uh-huh,

- What do you mean, those things
that the kids ride around?

- Right, right, they're hot as a piston,

Yeah, no, everybody's doing it,

Yeah, it's the biggest
thing on wheels, Solly,

- All right, how much
is this new enterprise

of yours gonna cost me?

- Aw, nothing, Solly, nothing,

I mean, hardly nothing at all,

Like, what do I owe you
now, about six grand?

- 6,500 with the vig,

- All it's gonna take
is a little three grand

to get it off the ground,

and then I'll pay you the
whole 9,500, plus interest,

in a couple of months, how's that?

- That's 10 grand, Manny,

- Well I promise, I'll
get you everything back,

right to the dollar,

I mean, I swear to you,
Solly, on my mother's grave,

- All right, meet me at the
drugstore at three o'clock,

- I'll be there, I swear to, I swear...

See ya, Solly,

I did it, ah!

(birds singing)

- What the hell am I doing with this jerk?

(wheels rolling)

(horn honking)

- Hey, wait for me!

Hey, listen, don't go away,

You guys remember me from yesterday, huh?

- No,
- Not really,

- My name's Emmanuel
Bloom, and there was a kid,

he jumped over my car yesterday,

Could you tell me where he is?

- I think he's riding pools,

- Yeah, but can he do that all the time?

Just tell me, I mean,
what's the percentage?

- Percentage? He can do
it any time he wants,

- Really? What about you kids?

Can you do stuff like that?

- We're all into different things,

- Yeah, like what?

- My freestyle,

You know, handstands, nose wheelies, 360s,

- Yeah,

Yeah, what about the stunts, though,

jumping over cars, crazy stuff like that?

- Listen, man, I can
practically make a board talk,

- You can?

All right, what you guys say if, me,

if I personally organize
a skateboard team?

- You'd be another guy
with a skateboard team,

- Really?

- Yeah,

thing's gonna fall apart,

- [Manny] No no no, it's pretty good,

a little easy while we're on the road,

What you do back in LA
is your own business,

doesn't mean you can stop other people,

(Manny exhaling)

I'm worried about my investment,

- Solly, don't worry about it, please,

These things take a little
while, but it'll shape up,

Believe me,

- Yeah, well, you talked a
pretty good game at first,

- Solly, I swear to God,

You get every penny
back, right to the cent,

- Manny, do you know,

do you know what happens when I get

worried about my investments?

- Yeah, I do, Solly, I really do,

worried about their health,

Are you worried about your health, Manny?

- I'm terrified about my health, Solly,

- Good, You should be,

- Okay, now let's hear it for the ladies

on the Los Angeles Wheels,

Well where you been?

You're a half hour late, you know that?

- You know what?

I'm usually late on
the first day of a job,

- What happens the second day?

- The second day, I don't show up at all,

- What?

(both laughing)

You a comedian or a nurse?

- I'm sorry, I'm usually
on time, and I will be,

- Unbelievable,

What do you know about a skateboard team?

- I don't know anything
about a skateboard team,

I'd like to know, What are
the Los Angeles Wheels?

- Well, it's the name of my team,

And, you ever see roller
derby or the Ice Capades,

something like that?

Well, that's what we do,

We have exhibitions up and
down the coast, you know?

And we're gonna be real big someday,

- Yeah?

- Yeah, and we need a nurse
to go all the way with us,

- Okay, are they kids?

- Yeah, yeah, all kids,

- How old?

- Well I got one kid, he's

He's the best kid I got,

Then I got a problem with him,

because he's involved
with this 17-year-old girl

who's also on the team, he
made me put her on the team,

You understand what I'm saying?

- Yes,

- I got a little kid, a
little squirt named Dennis,

He's 10, he thinks he's 18,

Got another kid, Brad, he
almost broke his shoulder on me

going over nine barrels,

- Woo,

- I need parents, you know what I mean?

And I can't have parents, and
the parents are telling me

I need female supervision now,

- That's gotta be me,

I'm good with kids, I like children a lot,

Especially teenagers, I'm
very good with teenagers,

- I don't know what to take you serious,

I hope you're not too good with them,

Huh?

I mean, I don't need any hanky panky,

That's one thing I don't
need, I got enough problems,

(engine revving)

(frogs croaking)

- Hey, boys,

Hey, you guys ever ridden
the toilet bowl before?

- No, by the time I found out where it was

they trashed the place,

- I rode it,

- Sure you did,

- Two years ago, I was eight,

- More like three,

- You never believe anything I say,

- Why should I?

- Because,

- Nice looking chick, huh?

- Really nice,

- God, she looks only about 17,

- That's the same age as Randi,

- [Peter] I bet you
Randi's got a hotter bod,

- She's sure got a better ass,

- Hey, did you ever ask
Jason what she's like?

I mean, she's gotta be pretty
good if she's with him,

- I wouldn't tell you if I knew anyways,

- Why?

- Because you're too young,

- She's kinda stuck up,
- Who?

- Randi,

- She's got a lot more
to be stuck up about

than you little twerps,

- Twerps?

- Hey, sorry you guys, I'm letting loose,

(gas passing)

- That's rank,

We could split this place,

(Manny grunting)

- My eye! You didn't have to do that!

No, not again, Leave me alone, man,

Come on, leave me alone,

- Now that's just the appetizer, Bloom!

Don't let me have to come
back with the main course!

- Ow, Oh God,

(Manny moaning)

Are you all right?

waiting for? Come on down!

Come on, Jace!

(wheels rolling)

Come on, what's taking you so long, Jason?

Way to go, Tone, Way to go, Tone,

What's this, a tea party, Jason?

What the hell is it with you, huh?

Will you stop jerking
around for Christ sakes?

We got Palmdale in two weeks, you know?

- All right, all right,

- What do you mean all right, all right?

We got a team to beat, remember?

- [Jason] I remember,

- You remember, huh?

Well I wouldn't know it

by your goddam lazy attitude of late,

- Get off my case, man, Get off my case,

- I'll get off your case,

Go on out there, Forget
about what my trip is!

Take your headphones and
stick them somewhere?

What do I have to do,

get killed before this kid puts out?

Yeah, you put your finger
out at me one more time,

I'll come up the hill and get you!

- What are you picking on them for, Manny?

- Nobody's picking on them,

- I mean, you're riding them so hard, why?

- You see what happened
to me last night, huh?

Huh, whose side are you on anyway?

- It's not a question of sides, Manny,

- That lame goon, I wear my headphones

so I don't have to listen to him,

- Hey, huh? What are waiting for, rain?

Get up the hill, let's
do it again, Come on!

- It's a lot better,

- You give me the bird one
more time, you're off the team,

(wheels rolling)

- Yo!
- Hi,

- Hey, what's happening?

- Not a whole lot,

- Where's your mom?

- She's shopping,

- Can I go get a beer?

- Yeah, go ahead,

- Hey, get me a soda,

- Okay,

- Hey, you know your mom called mine?

- I know, She's really ticked at Manny,

- So's mine, She doesn't
like me coming home so late,

- Hm-hm,

- Andy's doing great,
- Isn't he?

- All right, Andrew, skate out,

Hey, my old man doesn't even dig Manny,

He thinks he's a sleaze bag,
He thinks I should quit,

- You gonna?

- Well, I don't know,
He paid me 100 bucks,

At least he didn't rip me off,

- He gave all of us 100 bucks,

I wonder how much Manny's making on this,

He must be doing pretty good,

- All I know is he paid me last,

and all he had left was $5,

I feel sorry for him,

I mean, he did make us pros,

- Yeah, well, I'll skate for the dude,

but I just wish he'd lay off Jason's case,

- Ever since he got that shiner,

it seems that somebody's giving
him pressure or something,

- Yeah, intense pressure,
right on the eye,

It's pretty gnarly too,

- Let's face it, you guys,

Sometimes Jason just
doesn't try at practice,

- We all know some days
he's a total space case,

- Yeah, but some days he
really flows, you know,

If Manny keeps pushing
him, he's gonna split,

(engine revving)

- Okay, pit stop, everybody,

Anybody gotta go to the
bathroom, they better go now,

- Yeah, can I do something for you?

- Yeah, gas, You got gas here?

- Sure,

- Put five bucks regular in please,

and make it snappy, huh?

- How far you think five bucks regular

can get you on a bus like this?

- Hey, would you put it in please, uh?

- Okay,

- Unbelievable,

All right, I'm going for a candy
bar, Anybody want anything?

- Yeah, a six-pack of Schlitz,

- Yeah, sure, buddy,

(engines roaring)

- Hey, you guys, let's cool
the bad vibes for a while,

- Bad vibes?

Maybe you haven't noticed,

but he's been on my case pretty regular,

- Maybe you haven't noticed,
but he's been on mine too,

- Hey look, I know one thing,

If he doesn't ease off,
he's got one less skater,

- And if Jason goes, so do I,

- [Tony] Yeah, me too,

- Really? Come on, you
guys, Manny's not that bad,

- Hey look, I got nothing
against the guy, you know,

I like Manny, I don't know why, but I do,

I just kinda wish he'd
get off my case is all,

- Here,

For after the meet,

- Thanks, Manny,

(upbeat music)

- Well, that's a big miss,

That's a big, big miss
from the Malibu Coasters

at three foot six in the high jump,

There's a good chance for the LA Wheels

to pick up three points now,

Let's take at Tony Bluetile
and Peter the Wolf Seven

from the LA Wheels as they attempt

to go the three foot six height,

Boy, let's take a look at them,

Skating up now is the duet,

And a magnificent jump,
ladies and gentlemen!

Let's hear it!

A beautiful jump, and another three points

for our good friends at the LA Wheels,

And we'll move right on in now, friends,

to the freestyle event,

That is the completion of freestyle,

Ladies and gentlemen, let's have

a big round of applause

for the Malibu Coasters
coming out of the freestyle,

Keeping it close, keeping a
very, very tight competition,

Going into the barrel jump now,

Tony Bluetile once again representing

the Los Angeles team,
and against a young man

we haven't met tonight,
our good friend Jimmy Kern,

And, over, oh, a miss, a miss,
is the young man all right?

(audience applauding)

(upbeat music)

Tony Bluetile is gonna take it off,

He's going for 16 barrels,

Look at him, there he
goes, up and over the top!

(Millicent cheering)

- Oh boy, even if we lose the ramps,

we could still win, right?

- I think so, yeah,

- No way, we're not losing nothing,

- Oh great,

(upbeat music)

- [Announcer] In this
fast-paced, action-packed

ramp-riding event, the
judges are giving points

for grace, speed, height and form,

A fall can be very costly,
and this is the first time

that these new 15-foot-high
ramps have been used

in sanctioned competition,

(upbeat music)

- Come on, Jason!

- That is another three points for LA,

- All right, all right!

- All right, all right!

- Just exactly as with
skiing and with ice skating,

exactly the same type of competition,

We will have three divisions,

the first one doubling right back,

He's the man that does everything

for the LA Wheels, Tony Bluetile,

and he's competing against
the Malibu Coaster,

Bobby, Bobby Dagger, are
you ready, gentlemen?

Stand by and (whistle blows),

(upbeat music)

One cone down, disqualifying Bobby Dagger,

The second heat will be Brad
Harris for the LA Wheels

and Rene Carrasco for Malibu,

All right, gentlemen, stand by,

(upbeat music)

He's got Carrasco!

(group cheering)

(upbeat music)

Ready now for the third and final section,

Jason Maddox will face
Malibu star Chad McQueen,

- [Woman] Come on, Jason,

(upbeat music)

- [Announcer] They're off!

They're in the back to the photo finish,

It's Maddox by inches,

(Millicent cheering)

- Manny, let me take you out
for a victory drink afterwards,

Okay, after you drop off the kids?

- Yeah, if we win, you can take me out

for as many drinks as you like,

- It's a deal,

- [Man] Don't worry
about the other helmets,

- [Woman] These helmets are better,

- This time, I'm serious,

I don't want any overlaps,

and I wanna get this commercial
the way it should be,

Clean, no overlaps, let's go!

All right, mark it,

- Scene Three, Take 90,

- [Director] Good, and up with the film,

Okay, and action, Jason!

- Background!
- I'm going!

- Hi, I'm Jason Maddox,
I ride for the LA Wheels,

My coach wanted me to do
this commercial for you,

It's a helmet, a fantastic helmet,

It's a Model 101 Yoni,

It's one of the newest, most
advanced models on this planet,

Believe me, it's unreal,

And for you little kids out there,

you know I wouldn't wear
it unless it was fantastic,

So,

um, if I don't hurry up
they're gonna use it on me,

- Loved it, loved that take!

That's it, We got it, we got it,

(gentle music)

(siren wailing)

(gentle music)

(engine starting)

- Millicent?
- Hi,

- Manny,
- Yeah, Manny,

- [Manny] Yeah, I know,
I'm always waking you up,

You gotta do me a favor,
Something happened to Jason,

- [Millicent] Oh no, bad?

- He got wigged out,

He was found by the
Ventura Police wigged out,

- [Millicent] Is he in jail?

- Yeah, they picked him up,

- [Millicent] He's not hurt, is he?

- No, he's all right,

- [Millicent] Did you talk to him?

- No, he won't talk to me,

- [Millicent] Who told
you that, the police?

- That's what he told the--

- [Millicent] But he'll talk to me, huh?

- That's right, He only
wants to talk to you,

- [Millicent] Okay, Okay,
what do you want me to do?

- You gotta go up there and
pick him up for me, all right?

- [Millicent] Just don't worry, Manny,

I'll take care of everything,

- I'm really sorry about this, I mean it,

(soft music)

- Hi,

Well, everything's all right with Jason,

I just dropped him off
at his brother's place,

so it'll be okay,

- I guess he thinks the world of me, huh?

- What?

- Jason,

I can imagine what he thinks of me,

- Jason, Jason likes you, Manny,

- Oh sure, all the kids do,

- Manny, why don't you
just take it easy, huh?

What are you doing to yourself?

You act as if it's your
fault or something,

- That's just the problem,
It's all my fault,

It's entirely my fault,

- What are you talking about?

- What am I talking about?

I'm talking about exactly
what you were talking

about the other day, I'm
talking about pressure,

Talking about kids are not meant to have

that kinda pressure put on them,

They're not meant to put in
a box where they're meant...

They're just not meant to
do those kinds of things,

- You should hear Jason's story,

He feels very bad,

Feels very sorry,

- Sorry?

- Because he thinks it's all his fault,

- What are you talking about, his fault?

He's been winning everything in sight,

and I've been still on his ass,

(engine revving)

- [Scott] Are you Randi?

- [Millicent] No, I'm
Millicent, I'm the team nurse,

- [Scott] Oh, I didn't know,

- [Millicent] Yeah, Well
you must be Scott, right?

- Yeah, come on in,

- Okay, I like your place, this is great,

- Thanks, can I get you a
cup of coffee or anything?

- No, I'm fine,

Well, where is he? Is he up yet?

- Well, Jason split earlier this morning,

- You mean he's gone?

(sighs) Oh my God,

I was afraid something
like this might happen,

I really was,

- All he kept talking
about was the pressure,

and the pressure, and on top

of everything else, that commercial,

I mean, it really did a number on him,

- Yeah, I shoulda seen that one coming,

Stupid,

Oh, Manny, Oh, God,
what will I tell Manny?

Tell him the truth, I guess,

- Where's Jason?

- Um, he's not here, Manny,

- What do you mean he's not here?

- He's gone,

- Oh, no, No,

- Yeah, no, he just--

- No, hey kids, don't
go far away please, huh,

We got problems, What happened?

- He, um, I don't know,
He split for a while,

I guess he needs a little
time alone or something,

- Yeah, yeah, we all do,
I know, I understand,

It's all my fault, I knew he was gonna...

- No, it isn't all your fault,

Now come on, don't take it personally,

- You know where he is?

- No, I don't,

- Honest?

- I don't know, I mean, he'll be back,

- All right, get the kids together,

- He's not gone for good,

- Yeah, I bet, I bet,

- Really,

- Okay, we gotta do something,

Get the kids on the bus, will ya?

- Okay,

(kids chattering)

- [Brad] I thought we were
practicing slalom, What is this?

- Nobody wants Jason back more
than I do, except for you,

I'm really sorry,

Please, please, you gotta
believe me, I mean it,

I didn't mean for him to run away,

I thought it was all over last night,

(sighs) You got any ideas?

Huh, you know where he might be?

- No,

- All right, everybody on, come on,

This'll only take a minute or two,

All right,

All right, take a seat, everybody,

- Hey, what's going on, Manny?

- Nothing, I just gotta talk to you,

(Manny sighing)

- What?

(Manny sighing)

- Excuse me, I, I...

I'm very upset and

I may not be saying things clearly,

but I would like you to bear with me

for just a couple of minutes, all right?

I mean, you know,

We, uh...

We don't have Jason anymore, He's gone,

He split,

- What do you mean he
split? Where'd he go?

- You hear what I just said?

I don't know where he went, He just split,

What do you want from me?

I'm sorry, I don't mean
to holler at you, kid,

That's probably why he took off too,

All right, he says,

he says he wants to cool
out for a couple of days,

Maybe he means it, maybe he's
coming back, maybe he's not,

The pressure got too much
for him, That's what he said,

He said it was my fault
for getting on his case,

She said the same thing,
so now I admit I was wrong,

But the fact is, he's gone,
and I need somebody now,

I need somebody to bail me out,

I need somebody to do the big race,

You know what I'm saying?

I mean, my life's riding on
this, I don't have to be...

Tony, I'm really gonna have to
rely on you for the big one,

What do you think?

Tony, will you take the headphones off?

Will you take the headphones off?

Will you get them off him?

- Yeah,

- Jason split,

All right, we don't have Jason anymore,

Now I need you, big boy,

I need you to do the big race for me,

- But I'm not into downhill,

- Well you are gonna be now, okay?

- It's not my thing, I'm
into slalom, now downhill,

- So you'll do both, okay?

- Well why don't you get Brad to do it?

He's into downhill more than I am,

He likes it too,

- The kid's half your
size! What are you...

He's half your size!

- [Tony] You can do it, right, kid?

- Can you do it?

- What do you think?

- I like it, but...

- All right,

- But Jason's the good rider, I'm not,

- Okay, so now you're
the good one, all right?

I'm not trying to compare the two of you,

All I need is somebody
to be my ace in the hole,

- Don't worry about it, I'll help you,

(bubble popping)

- Yeah, okay,

- You will?
- Yeah,

- That's all I ask, kid,

- [Tony] Won't Jason be
back for the downhill?

- Yeah, yeah, he'll be back,

But if he isn't...

If he isn't, my life depends on you, kid,

You understand what I'm saying?

- Yeah,

- I hope so,

- Me too,

- Randi, I gotta ask you a favor,

You probably don't owe me this,

I mean, I owe you a big
apology, I know, but

will you stay with the team?

- All right,

- That means a great
deal to me, no kidding,

We gonna do it, huh? All right?

- All right,

- Okay? No more negative thinking,

It's positive, positive
from now on, right?

- Let's go for it,

- All right, let's go, Let's
get out there, all right?

Everybody out there,

All right, okay,

Hey, Randi, thank you,

- Sure,

- Hey, listen, I'll work with you, man,

I'll bust my ass, all right?

And I won't get on your
case, Don't worry about it,

I'll just work hard with you, okay?

Come on, let's go,

- I'll work hard too,

- [Announcer] Many of the
stunts in "Skateboard"

were difficult and dangerous,

Take a tip from the pros,

Know your ability, and
don't skate beyond it,

Always use good safety
equipment, and maintain it,

Shoes, elbow pads and knee pads,

Gloves, and either a
light freestyle helmet

for flatland riding, or a solid helmet

for bank, park and downhill riding,

Above all, skate only in skate parks

or other, special skateboarding areas

and never, ever on
streets or public roads,

Have fun, and skate safe,
