- [Steve] 23 miles of Mulholland slicing Los Angeles

like a knife, it's like a trip in time.

Sometimes I just can't wait for night.

You see too much in the sunshine.

Roads changin'.

Civilization's choking it.

At night the straightaways are shorter.

Turns sharper.

Drop steeper.

It's the only place I ever felt safe.

I'm clear.

I'm clean

and fast.

Freedom.

I wonder who it'll be tonight.

I hope he's fast.

(upbeat music)

(engines revving)

(chattering)

- I take it you got the bank.

- [Buddy] Bank?

Steve doesn't race for bread.

- [Man] Well if he wants us, it's 100 a pop.

You gonna do it, or what?

- Hey ease up, hang on a second.

What did you set up with them?

- Set up a race.

- Yeah but for $100?

- Trust me, we won't need it.

- That's all I needed to hear.

- Is your man ready?

- Very ready. - The course clear?

(flare igniting)

- [Man] Mulholland's sealed off.

(engines revving) - Okay.

- Okay, friend, you want a run for your money?

You're gonna get a run for your money.

Not a chance, pal, not a chance.

No way, no way.

(chuckling)

(police radio chattering)

- Not a bad idea.

What do you say we nail their asses?

- Let's go.

(engines revving)

(sirens blaring)

(chattering)

- [Officer] Okay, pull the plug, you're caught.

I said shut it down.

Keep smiling, pal.

- Oh, Roger, you missed the big one tonight,

the big one, I am talking about the big one.

You shoulda seen Steve blowing off this Trans Am, right?

Then these two guys just about have a head on collision

with a black and white.

Black and white. (chuckling)

Helicopter arrives on the scene--

- They popped Steve, huh? - Puts the beam down

on everyone. - You two

are a couple of assholes.

- Well I can only speak for myself.

- I can't believe you guys still get anything out of running

that mountain, I can't believe it, what?

- Bail money, $200.

- Oh, come on, Buddy, I can't believe it.

Do you know what time it is?

We're supposed to be there in 15 minutes.

- I know Roger. - You go now,

who we gonna use for a keyboard player?

- He's in jail right now.

- I knew it, it's unbelievable, I spend all week kissing

Barry Tanner's ass to get us--- Thank you my son, thank you.

- Three hours of free--- Steve thanks you,

I thank you. - Recording time and this

has to screw it up. - LAPD thanks you.

I'll be there.

Think I'd better change first.

(dog barking)

- Hey, I love you for bailing me out, pal.

But you could've left me in there

for at least a couple hours.

Hey, a little time is good for the soul.

- Mr. Macho, a little time is good for the soul.

Bullshit, a little time?

Three busts in three months and I'm on a first name basis

with every cop in there, not sure that I like it, Stevie,

bad for my rep.

- Big bad Buddy.

- Right on.

- Where'd you get the bail money?

I thought you were tapped out.

- Oh, third member of our little family moaned and groaned

and cried, pull him out, but he finally came through.

- Roger?

- We got any other family, you know?

(chattering)

Would you mind moving your Dodge out of the way?

You got my car blocked.

- Do what?

- Move your car.

- No, no, we're not blocking your car.

We're protecting it.

(laughing) - That's right.

Protecting it, right. - Wait, wait, whoa, whoa,

I'd move it but I don't have the keys,

you know, I've been lookin' for 'em for a couple days.

- Well, those are keys. - I don't where they are.

I don't know where the keys are.

- Those are keys. - Whoa,

lookin' for these, are ya?

I don't have 'em.

I don't where they are. - Well those look like 'em.

- That's the old one. - Those look,

those are the keys, right?

(chattering)

- Those aren't the keys. - What's your hurry?

- Those are the keys to my jeep.

- What's the big deal?

- Like I said, we're running late.

I really don't want the keys, I just want you

to get in your car, turn your car on, pull out,

'cause this could become a very long night,

like I said, I gotta keep goin'.

(chattering)

- Buddy!

Get in the back, grab the locks, the locks!

Get in the back, grab the locks, they got the key.

- Get outta the car. (banging)

- [Steve] Just keep the locks down and there's no problem,

we are in complete control.

- Now what?

- Watch this, pal, watch this.

- No, you're not, no, no!

You're joking. -All right,

come on, baby, come on.

(engine revving)

(tires screeching)

- I do not believe this.

I just finish springing you out of jail

and you steal a goddamn car!

- So you're late for a session, I'll get you there.

- Yeah, meanwhile, these jerks

are gonna thrash my car, thank you.

- Hey, listen, no problem.

A 10 to one, they will not touch your car.

Anyway, I've got an idea, go in the glove compartment,

get out their registration, we'll find out

who these jokers are, drop this tub off near the studio,

give 'em a call and tell 'em where it is, it's simple.

No problem, anyway, Buddy, your songs are gonna buy you

a half a dozen cars, hell, they're gonna

buy you a fleet! - Oh they are?

A fleet?

(yelling)

Pull over, I'm gonna throw up.

- Hot, woman, you are hot!

It was beautiful, come on in here.

- Hey, you trying you say that's a take, Roger?

- Well, if the keyboard player had been there from

the start, come on in, everybody, we'll take a listen to it.

- Right!

- What did they get you for?

- Reckless, speed exhibition, evasion,

you name it, I got it.

- I shoulda let you rot, you left me with $6 for the week.

- God, that felt great, it really did.

I'm shaking.

Hey, what do you think?

- Well, I think I wrote a great song.

- Well, we all know you're a genius.

- Oh, well, I think Tanner ought to hear it.

- Well, Tanner will hear it.

The thing we have to worry about now is making sure that

everything sounds perfect to that man right over there.

By the way, Tina, say hello to Steve.

Steve say hello to Tina.

- Hello, Steve.

- [Steve] Hi, Tina.

- So?

- [Buddy] Yes?

- Well, does Tanner get to hear it?

- Well, I'll have to think about it.

What about in Where Do I Fit In,

did you redo the vocal in the second verse?

- Yes, yes, you were right, I was a little sharp.

- Did we get a mix?

- Did we get a mix.

- Yeah. - Put it up, Tommy.

He lived up there on that hill.

He used to keep it as a guest house

for all his friends who came in from out of town.

Gable and Lumbard used to live there in 14.

Do you want a drink?

- Good night.

Man, we were really smokin'.

- Just gettin' it in gear.

(laughing)

- Speaking of getting in gear, what time is it?

- It's hardly six o'clock.

- Oh, God, I gotta get going.

No, I gotta get to work. - Night's just beginning.

You promised me a foot massage.

(chattering)

- Hey listen. - Ronnie, how are you?

- Hey, how you doing? -All right.

Hey, Buddy. - Hey,

watch out for falling rocks.

(knocking)

- [Steve] Morning, Iris.

So, what you been up to?

- [Iris] Thanks for calling.

- I got hung up.

- [Iris] Hung up, huh?

- Yeah, I couldn't get to a phone.

- Well.

Next time you do, don't call me.

(door slamming)

- You and Iris set the date?

- Yeah, as a matter of fact, we were just trying

to figure out whether or not to have a church wedding.

- Roger, they're gonna tie the knot.

- Hey, man, commitment, that's wonderful,

whoopee, celebration, all right!

As mom would say, "It's the promise of permanence, Roger."

Jeez, look at this, here we are again.

Oh shit.

Downin' the last beer.

- Roger.

- As the sun comes up, how many times have we done this?

(beeping)

(crashing)

(engines revving)

(ticking)

- You know what it is about this life?

Cars that won't run.

There's only one thing worse than cars that won't run.

That's pushing a car that won't run.

No, there's one thing worse than that, man.

That's holding up a dead body.

Lifting it up, yeah.

Especially if it's yours.

(grunting)

Resurrection, man, resurrection!

- Hey, Davey.

- Cigarette?

- No, no, no, I'm quitting.

- [Rick] How's that thing runnin', Steven?

- Oh, she's perfect, wanna drive her?

- Nothing better than perfect, my man.

(telephone ringing)

- Hey Hot Dog,

some chick stopped by to see you, man.

(telephone ringing)

- [Steve] Well, who was it?

- I didn't catch her name.

Toss me that number 14, will you?

- Who was it?

- I don't know.

She's got long brown hair,

drives an old red Datsun, no, it's a (indistinct).

- Oh, yeah?

What'd you tell her?

- What'd I tell her?

- Yeah.

- I told her you had a small dick, man.

- Friend,

you are a good friend.

(chuckling)

He's right.

(engine revving)

The old days, they were crazy.

They'd race Mulholland from here all the way to the ocean.

This is Grandstand.

Watch the action from up there.

- Atta boy, Steve! (cheering)

- Those freaks your fan club?

- That's part of it.

- [Tina] Cops hassle you a lot, huh?

- Yeah, sometimes, there's usually always somebody up here.

Mainly, though, on Friday and Saturday nights

it doesn't stop.

- [Tina] Does anyone go over the edge?

- [Steve] All the time.

Gotta ride the edge if you wanna win.

Here comes the meanest curve on the hill.

The Dead Man.

- [Tina] Rodan Stan, Boogie Man, Sweeper.

- [Steve] Carl's.

- Who makes up the names?

- Who knows?

They've been racing up here for about 30 years.

That guy you met at the shop, Cal?

He bought it right here 15 years ago.

They pieced him back together, he hasn't raced since.

Made him a legend.

He had to drive to the end of the road.

Wasn't just winning for Cal.

He had to see you lose.

- Hotshot.

- Who's that?

- I got a surprise for you.

Hey, friend, you lookin' for a little action?

- Winner takes the pink slip.

- Winner takes the girl.

(howling)

(upbeat music)

(tires screeching)

(engines revving)

- Come on, Steve.

- Give up? - Now, Steve.

- All right.

(ticking)

- Feel that? - What?

- The vibration.

- [Tina] No.

(ticking)

(horn honking)

- Buddy, Roger and I went up to Mulholland one night.

Couldn't believe our eyes, people jamming back and forth.

Anyway, after that, we were hooked.

- Can't picture Roger racing.

- Oh, he was really good.

He had this green Camaro that could really fly.

Then one day he lost it, he,

he hit the mountain and wrapped himself around

a telephone pole but he was all right.

He showed up a couple days later in this Jag.

He ran through the course once

and that was the last time.

- Two dogs, a couple of fries and Cokes?

- That's us.

Here.

- You love it, don't ya?

- [Steve] What?

- The hill.

- It's a good place to go fast.

I guess there are a lot of good places to go fast.

I don't know, it's special.

I grew up there.

You know, I didn't used to be able to go to sleep at night

until I'd run that course at least once.

(chuckling)

I was afraid I'd miss something, some,

some action I didn't know was going on.

It was the first place where,

where people talked about me when I wasn't there.

You know what I mean?

I can drive that course blindfolded.

I know when to shift, when to gas, when to brake.

I know the perfect line,

I've got that place wired, I own it.

It's mine.

(engine revving)

(light music)

(horn honking)

(ticking)

(engine revving)

(engine revving)

- It's kinda early for you, ain't it, Hotshot?

- Kinda.

I have to talk to you.

- Talk it out.

- Maybe I'm going crazy.

I felt something last night.

Coming into Sweeper.

I was right where I should've been, right where I always am.

That's where I felt it.

Kinda came up through the road, it went right through me.

It's not the car.

I know it's not the car.

And I was up there this morning.

Road's the same.

The same road.

No bumps, same groove.

What is it, Cal?

- Fear, man.

Fear.

It's a monster.

You know,

you know that thing that jerks your head back, you know?

Locks your jaw and clenches your teeth.

Fear.

Makes that mean gleam about you, Joker.

You know what I mean?

(chuckling)

The whole world, man.

Just blurs and thunders.

Makes that car of yours like

a runaway knife.

Know what I mean?

Basically, it's just a thrill maker.

You understand what I mean?

A thrill maker.

But he's a cannibal.

And you're gonna hear all sorts of things.

You're gonna hear rippin' and tearin'

and all over the place, all around you,

you understand what I mean, Mister?

Because he's here.

He's here.

You watch out for him.

Because now you know his secret.

'Cause he's clockin' your ass, Joker.

(whistling)

- Looking very nice.

- Hi, how you doin'?

Hey, hey, hey!

Now you're talkin'.

That is really very sweet of you.

My favorite combination.

- Roger, no way.

No way, not this one. - What, come on, one bite.

- Out. - I don't believe it.

Would you deny me, your best friend?

- I may be your best friend but I'm no fool.

Make your own, Roger.

- Come on, one bite's not gonna kill you.

- Take off.

(making launching sound)

You've gotta understand something, Roger.

There are certain aesthetic considerations involved here.

I created the masterpiece, I get the first bite.

- Now?

- In a second.

- Now?

- Be careful, please.

- That's great.

Basic purple.

Goes well with my jeans, huh?

Who's he got in there now?

- Tina.

- Wouldn't you know it, I'm the one making her a star,

he's the one making it between her legs.

Hey, are you crazy?

- That's gross. - This is my shirt.

If this doesn't come out, you're buying me a new shirt.

- Sue me!

- What's the matter with you, there's a little edge

goin' on there, the action in there gettin' to you too?

Romeo and Juliet gettin' you so upset?

- Romeo and Juliet gettin' you so upset?

(mumbling)

- Romeo and Juliet ain't got me upset, I said.

Anyway, my family was always pretty open.

Warmth.

Lotta love.

- I grew up in a huge house with just my parents.

Three of us in five bedrooms.

Not a whole lot of love.

My father used to go away on business trips

and he would shake hands with my mother.

- You're not serious. - Yeah.

I don't know, I guess it's all a little more radical

when you look back on it.

- I thought you were just shy.

- I'm not exactly shy.

I'm careful.

- Halfway up!

Did a nice job, Roger.

- Thanks, we worked hard enough.

- Mr. Prescott--- I know that, I saw you.

That's what I like about you.

That's why you got all the free studio time.

- [Elaine] He's on.

- Hello, Billy, baby, how are you?

Good, listen, this budget thing's gettin' out of hand.

That's right.

I like quality as much as anybody.

That's why I let you go over in the first place.

Well you got 10,000 to finish this thing

- Fantastic.

- Who owns his songs?

- [Roger] He does.

- Can you make a deal on 'em?

(telephone ringing) - Yeah.

- [Elaine] Hello?

- On your own? - Let me check.

- [Roger] Yeah.

- [Elaine] It's Arnie Rifkin.

- Call him back. - I'm sorry.

- I need what I just heard for Cadillac Blue.

They're dry, they need material

and I want an album out on 'em before Christmas.

- Well, wait a minute, Barry, I thought that

I was here today to talk about us recording

and anyway, my friend would never go for that.

These songs are him, he's never gonna let anybody

record 'em before we do.

- You think he's a song writer?

He's not shit.

When I cut his material, that's

when he becomes a song writer, huh?

- Barry, I cannot sell this thing to him.

- I mean, what do you wanna do in this business, Roger?

You wanna be a record producer?

Or do you wanna be your friend's song schlepper?

It's up to you, baby.

- Freddy, hi, it's Elaine.

I need you to draw up a contract for me.

I need a publishing acquisition deal.

Participation for a RogerTerry.

Oh, what's your friend's name?

- Buddy Dunn.

Harry.

Harry Dunn.

- [Elaine] And Harry Dunn.

Yeah, but do the signature page forTerry only.

- [Barry] Relax, Roger.

You didn't sell him out.

You bought yourself in.

- Jesus, I hate all this waiting.

All the bullshit.

You know, having my life, shit, my future

in the hands of a stranger is driving me crazy.

Will Tanner like this, will he hate that?

You're kinda lucky, you know that?

- Yeah, to have found you.

I know a good thing when I see it.

- No, I mean there aren't a whole lotta grays in your life.

- Roger!

I know you can hear me, brother, I know you can.

Well, I believe in you, I love you.

My songs love you, my goddamn piano loves you

and I know you're gonna make one hell of a deal

- Tanner didn't go for it.

When you didn't call, I knew.

- Well, I've been up all night

trying to figure out a way to explain it to you.

- That bad, huh?

- It could've been worse.

He didn't buy the whole package.

Now, he really does think you have potential

and he wants to make a publishing deal.

You wanna be a song writer, here's a chance to get your

tunes covered by the biggest producer in the business.

- I am not in this to get them covered.

I want us to record them.

- You have to level with him, Roger.

Tanner's buying your songs as a favor to Roger.

It's a start, it's bucks.

And Roger thinks it's a great idea.

- You think I should do it?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

I'll handle it.

- [Buddy] Do it.

(saw grinding)

- Hey.

Cal!

Hey!

Seen the breaker bar, where you hiding it?

Hey, Cal, where you, Jesus Christ.

- Don't you ever touch me, man.

Nobody comes up behind me like that.

- [Davey] I wanted the breaker,

I was looking for the breaker--

- Look asshole. - It's okay.

- You got eyes, man?

There's the breaker bar, you see that?

- Okay, I'm--

- What do you think I am, your nanny, or something?

- Okay, I'm sorry.

- I'm sorry, huh.

I'm sorry.

What are you looking at, man?

- Hey, I'm looking at nothing, nothing.

- [Cal] I know what you're thinking, you beat the mountain.

It's not that easy.

- Cal, do not mess with me today, all right?

'Cause I'm not in the mood.

- [Cal] Oh, yeah, I'm gonna tell you something, man.

Back off, man, you'll go down real quick.

- I said don't--- You want it here, man?

You want it outside?

- That's enough!

- Enough of what, man?

I ain't even started yet.

- It's enough, knock it off!

- I'd like to knock it off, man.

- What's wrong with you, goddamn it,

knock it off! - What's wrong with me?

What's wrong with him, man?

- Knock it off, I said!

All right, take it easy.

You all right?

Got your breaker bar?

- Shit. - Go back to work, will ya?

- I shoulda kicked his butt.

I shoulda mopped the floor

with his royal highness hotshot ass!

- [Rick] Get me some plugs for this thing,

let's get this thing back together.

- Okay. - I wanted the breaker bar.

- He's nobody's fool, huh?

Yeah.

Oh, he's drunk.

He's drunk with the greed of his youth.

And his speed.

Oh.

Cal.

Stop rhyming, you know what that means.

Yeah.

Well, I'm not crazy, man!

(upbeat music)

- Jaime, Barry.

- Nice smile.

- I'm not big on parties, just 500 of your closest friends.

- Oh, relax.

Let's find Roger.

- Let's get a drink.

- Jaime Winter.

- Oh yeah.

She looks better in person than she does at home.

She's cute.

- You can do anything you want on 24 track.

We were doing a demo tape this week.

Oh, boy, here come some friends of mine,

real close friends, you gotta excuse me.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Roger. - How you doin'?

What a scene, huh?

How does it feel to be in the music business?

- Very tasty. - Roger.

He said you were an attractive lady.

She's magnificent.

I'm Barry Tanner.

- Tina Wells.

- You, you're a hell of a song writer.

- Well, actually, I don't write songs.

- This is Steve, he's an old, dear friend.

- See that girl in there, Jaime Winter?

Two years ago, no one knew who she was.

Come on, I'll introduce you.

Enjoy yourselves, fellas.

- It begins.

- I can't drink this shit.

- Come on, let's go have a beer, come on.

- Do you have two beers? - Sure thing.

- Make it three.

- [Steve] Hey, Buddy, you got my note.

You look a lot better than you did this morning.

- Yeah, I went out to the beach. How's it going, Roger?

- Great, the terrible trio is together again.

- This is no big deal or anything, I just

came by to let you know that everything's okay.

I thought about it.

This morning I was a little blown out.

I'm straight now.

- [Roger] Great, I'm glad to hear that.

- [Buddy] You know, I figure Tanner knows what he wants,

big time record producer and everything.

But between us, up his.

- Hey, I'll drink to that.

- [Roger] Yeah, up his.

- [Buddy] Now, look, Roger,

just because Tanner thinks my songs are shit,

I don't want you forgetting me when you do Tina's album.

- Listen, I wanna count you in on a deal,

three of us go up on the hill.

What would that be like?

- [Steve] You feelin' all right, Roger?

- Come on, man, we haven't been there for a long time,

it'd be good.

- Oh, look, that's Buddy right there.

- You wanna leave a party like this and go up to the hill.

- Yeah, old times' sake.

- Wouldn't make the same mistake twice.

(chuckling)

Buddy Dunn, right?

- Yeah.

- Barry Tanner. - Oh, nice to meet you.

- Congratulations, we're cutting

four of your songs next week.

- Yeah, Barry, I was just in the middle of explaining

all that stuff to them. - Excuse me,

what did you just say?

- We're recording four of his tunes next week.

- Hey, no, it's okay, you don't have to hype me here.

- You didn't tell him, huh?

- I haven't had the chance--- Never mind, I'll break

the good news to him myself.

Yeah, we're doing four of your tunes with Cadillac Blue.

The top, right, come on down, meet 'em, you'll enjoy it.

Listen, I gotta go, you know, the host with the most.

Enjoy yourselves, fellas.

- What's going on, Roger?

- Hey, Roger, did you know about this last night?

- You kidding, Tanner told me 10 minutes ago.

That's why I wanted to go up in the hill

so that I have a chance to break it to you there.

He conned us, man.

He told me he liked the songs then went

and signed 'em off to some twit.

We got conned.

- He's lying, you're lying.

- What are you talking about, Buddy?

- Why would you do it?

If he wanted the songs for Cadillac Blue,

you had to know they were good, right?

We coulda recorded these, Roger, ourself, without Tanner.

- No. - We coulda got somebody else

to bankroll us. - I didn't know he wanted

it for Cadillac Blue, now we got taken.

I tell ya, it's still a good deal.

It's gonna put you on the charts as a song writer like that.

- I can't believe you both did this to me.

- Buddy. - Hey, Roger.

You sold him out.

You sold him out and you used me to do it.

(chattering)

- This has happened to me.

This has happened to me.

- [Valet] I got four aces.

(chuckling)

- Can you move this red bomber here?

I gotta get this speedster out.

- [Valet] Hey, Billy, Billy!

- It'd be faster if you moved it, pal.

- Would you just relax, sir?

- Hey, move the car, all right?

- Okay, all right.

- Asshole.

(engine revving)

- You bunch of punks.

You're all a bunch of punks!

I was here on this hill racing before you were born.

Over the hill,

lost my mind,

out of it, insane.

Now I've heard all the talk and everything.

I want a challenge tonight.

I want a challenge tonight!

A challenge tonight!

A challenge!

Yeah, time, huh?

You wanna play footsie with fate?

We never had women when we ran on the hill.

I guess you're out of the question.

Hey, you wanna race? - I don't even have a car.

- Yeah, well have your father buy you one!

It's right up the line, ain't it?

Hey, how you doing, you wanna go?

Wanna go for it, I'm going for it tonight!

Oh, no, think you're the best?

- No, man, you're the best.

- [Cal] No, no.

- [Driver] Too fast for me, man.

- Mothers, that's what we used to call you, mothers.

(chuckling)

Stay at home, mom.

How 'bout you, man?

You're the fastest on the hill, aren't ya?

- [Driver] Hey, man, not me, not tonight.

- I'll run with you.

- Music maker.

Organ grinder.

- Yeah, I've heard it all tonight.

I don't need to hear anymore.

- You're over your head tonight, boy.

- I said I'll run with you.

Now can you get it together

to tell me whether you are in or out?

I'm ready.

- All right!

Pissant!

Let's start this booger down the road.

(chattering)

(engines revving)

(tires screeching)

(engines revving)

- [Steve] Hey, you seen Buddy?

- Yeah, him and Cal just took off

about 10 seconds ago, they just--

(making revving sound)

Straight down the highway, gone.

- Cal? - Yeah.

(engines revving)

(chuckling)

- To play footsie with fate, you gotta think.

You got it now?

You got it now?

(tires screeching)

(engines revving)

(tires screeching)

Go.

- Hey, pull the line, Buddy, pull the line!

- Take it back, boy, you ain't got it.

This a big boy's game, that's what.

Don't you understand that I'm up here?

(tires screeching)

Hey!

(chuckling)

- Hey, sit on it!

I said, sit on it!

- Hey, Buddy, what are you doin'?

- Come on!

(tires screeching)

- Pull back on it, Buddy, pull back!

That's too fast, no!

(crashing and exploding)

(mournful music)

That's too fast, Buddy.

Too fast.

Too fast.

Why?

Why?

Why?

Buddy!

(sobbing)

- [Davey] Sorry about your friend, man.

- Yeah, thanks, appreciate it.

- You okay?

- [Steve] Yeah, I'm fine.

- Why don't you go home and take it easy?

- You're a man short.

- [Rick] It's all right, I'll take care of it.

- Hey, Rick? - Yeah?

- Kinda like to stick around.

Nowhere else to go.

- Come on, I got something to show you.

I took this picture over 15 years ago.

- So?

- I haven't been back on that hill since.

Haven't been back because I knew

it was over for me up there.

I don't know how I did but I did.

It's over for you too now.

You have nothin' to prove.

It doesn't matter to anybody but Cal,

don't you understand that?

You don't need that race.

He does.

You think about that.

I want you to think about it real hard.

(light music)

- I didn't know when I was gonna see you again.

- Wasn't your fault.

You look pretty.

- Thanks.

- Where you goin'?

- Roxy.

Barry's showcasing a new act.

- You never stop, do you?

- Sittin' around here's not gonna make me feel any better.

Why don't you meet us there?

- Not tonight.

- You gonna go fast tonight?

- As fast as I can.

- Fast as you can, back and forth.

Back and forth.

Where's it gonna take you?

- Nowhere.

- [Tina] That won't bring him back, you know?

(knocking)

- Miss Wells?

Would you please tell Miss Wells her car is here?

- Yeah, sure, just a minute.

Your car is here.

A limo, no less.

- Take it easy.

Feels like a commitment.

- You gonna be here tonight when I get back?

- That's the girl's line, remember?

You mean if you get back.

- [Steve] Some fan.

- Some chump.

(engines revving)

- Hey,

this is the guy from Downing.

He said he's heard about you, he liked your action.

- Not tonight.

- [Man] I saw him race last Friday, he's really quick, man.

- No, I'm not in the mood.

- Beat it.

(tires screeching)

(engines revving)

(soft piano music)

(engine revving)

(engine revving)

(tires screeching)

(engine revving)

(tires screeching)

(engines revving)

- I got it, go for it, go for it!

(tires screeching)

Turn on it, turn on it, turn!

(engines revving)

It's me against the clock, man, it's time, man,

time is speed, speed is time.

Oh, man, that's some good shit, man.

(tires screeching)

- I don't wanna become Cal.

It's all yours.

(tires screeching)

(crashing and exploding)

(ticking)
