Narrator: On Wednesday, November 24, 1971,

at 6:27 p.m., aboard flight 305

from Portland to Seattle,

the following event actually took place.

What happened after that is anybody's guess.

Pilot: Seattle Center, this is NPA flight 242.

Our friend has ordered us to descend

from flight level 230 to 10,000 feet at 170 knots.

Operator: Roger.

Do you know his intentions?

Pilot: They are unclear.

We are flying direct to Redmond VOR.

Intend to intercept Victor 165er direct to Reno.

We have just been ordered to lower our gear

and deploy rear exit hatch.

Operator: Roger. Repeat, do you know his intentions?

Pilot: Not at this point. Over.

Yahoo!

Let's go.

Man on PA: Attention, all personnel.

There will be a short delay

of all incoming and outgoing flights.

Please remain inside the terminal.

Let's go.

Let's get out of here.

Let's go. Move, move, move!

I got it.

Cover that back ramp!

- Let's go! Slide, slide! - Jump, jump!

- Jump! Jump! - Has anybody seen him?

Get out! Whoa!

Come on, ma'am.

Woman: I'm still in here.

Don't forget me!

- Man: Freeze! - I'm still here.

All right, fella. Just take it easy, all right?

He's not on the aircraft. He went out the back door. He bailed out.

But you got a lady in the can here,

and you got a bomb on the seat.

Who the hell are you?

I'm Bill Gruen, General Indemnity Insurance,

and we're on the hook for that 200 grand.

Now, I'd like to put my hands down

and get this lady out of here.

What I suggest is you get your bomb boys up here

and get 'em up fast, all right?

- Somebody please help me. - Man: Bomb squad!

What's your name in there?

- Denise. - Denise?

It'll be just a few seconds

because things are a little bit tense out here.

- Denise: Is that bomb gonna blow up? - There it is.

- I certainly hope not. - Denise: Please hurry.

Don't worry. We've already notified your next of kin.

Amateur night. Easy.

Oh, God.

It's a goddamn joke.

Stereo wires, highway flares, and Play-Doh.

Whoo-wee! Colder than Muskogee out here tonight.

Well, ain't it?

I feel kinda toasty.

Gimme that.

Man, if you saw a deer,

you wouldn't know what the hell to do with it.

Hell, I've seen lots of deer tonight.

No, no.

How was your flight, Mr. Cooper?

Well, I'll tell you,

the service wasn't too good, and it was a little bit bumpy,

but four parachutes and $200,000 in cash

ain't a bad trade for two cans of Play-Doh

and some stereo wire, you know what I mean?

Now, maintain discipline at all times.

You look good.

Wanna start a revolution?

Who says you can't take it with ya?

What do ya need, friend?

Bill Gruen from General Indemnity Insurance.

My company represents the airlines.

- Do you want the local police for that? - For what?

Man: I think we oughta close off

that whole northern Oregon forest.

Deer hunting season opens dawn tomorrow.

There'll be 10,000 hunters in there.

He's figured all the angles.

Why do you think he asked you for four parachutes?

I don't know. Maybe if he'd only asked for one,

we'd have given him a Roman candle.

But I thought he might make somebody jump with him,

so I said make sure all four work.

Woman: I've answered that question a million times now.

She said he was wearing a "nothing" suit.

Man: That isn't what the other one said.

You don't know what he looked like anyway.

He was cute, kind of.

Doesn't look like him at all, not at all.

Sure, it does.

You're blind.

I saw him better.

Thanksgiving holiday, the flight's fully booked,

but two-thirds of the people don't show up for the plane.

That's too high.

Man: Phony reservations. No coincidence.

Man #2: Are you an expert? Nobody ever did this before.

Woman: Jesus, 200 grand. Nobody got hurt.

Oh, hell.

Half your ideas are pure genius.

The rest are pure shit.

Man on radio: Chopper 1 to Command.

The brush is very thick. Request permission

to follow logging roads or the river. Over.

Command: Command to Chopper 1, stay on the trees.

We're still looking for a parachute.

It might have a body hanging--

Chopper 1: Going to make another pass along the north fork.

How about an accent? Regional or foreign?

No. I-- nothing you'd notice.

Clothes?

Just a business suit.

You know, like a businessman.

- Mm-hmm. - Except for the bracelet.

What do you mean a bracelet?

You mean he was a transvestite hijacker?

Well, I-- it was a bracelet.

Primitive.

Black wire.

Black wire?

Yeah, a black wire.

Anything like this?

That's it. What is that?

Elephant hair. Montagnard. Vietnamese.

What did he use to cut the parachute cord

he tied you in the can with?

A knife from his boot.

That scared me.

When he said to get into the lavatory,

I got right in.

That's when he said,

"Don't worry about a thing.

We've already notified your next of kin."

"And they've already spent the insurance money?"

That's my line.

Now, we're gonna need your help, Denise,

to look at some pictures, some classified material.

I have got to get some sleep, okay?

- Maybe tomorrow I could-- - No, no, no. Now.

We're offering a reward. 10% of everything he took.

Everything.

Money?

Meanwhile, in this country,

law officers continue to search for a man

who is perhaps the cleverest

and certainly the most audacious outlaw

in recent memory.

This is the second day

of the mysterious and dramatic disappearance

of a man using the alias "D.B. Cooper."

There are 3,000 armed men scouring that forest now.

Unfortunately, 2,800 are would-be hunters

out for the opening of the deer season.

So, careful, D.B.

What's going on here?

Can I see some identification?

Yes, sir, Lieutenant. Uh, hunting license be all right?

That'll be fine.

Man: You hunters keep them guns down, please.

Man: Nothing over here.

- See anything yet, Sarge? - Nothing up here!

Come over here. I wanna show you something.

This won't bite.

Man: A bit of information coming through

for you now, Mr. Gruen.

Yeah.

Yeah?

Okay, thank you.

Man: You backorder that 50 dozen uniforms?

Man #2: Yeah, I'm pretty sure I did.

No.

No.

No way.

Unh-uh.

No. Unh-uh.

Cooper's a lot cuter than these guys.

Not here!

Not here!

Aah!

Aah!

Jesus, I am sorry!

I-- I mean, I thought you were--

Damn it! Are you all right?

What the hell you think you're doing?

Who me? I was hunting.

Well, what're you hunting, us?

No, no. You see, it's my first time

and, well, I just didn't think there'd be people

all the way up here, you know?

I mean, you do know it's deer hunting season, don't ya?

When? Now?

Absolutely. As of this morning.

You ought to be dressed.

Like this.

You know, I'd get the hell out of these woods if I were you.

That's what I'm gonna do.

This is a damn dangerous place to be, I'll tell you that.

- Gruen: Remson. - Denise: Who?

Don't worry. This guy never found his way out of the jungle.

Dead, huh? Thought I wasn't supposed to get any dead ones.

Nothing works anymore. It's pretty discouraging.

No.

Keep in mind a lot of these pictures are old.

No. No.

No. No.

Wait a minute. Go back a couple.

No. Yeah.

Sort of, yeah. Maybe.

Which is it?

Oh, I don't know.

Gruen: You screwed up, Meade.

Meade: I know I did, sir.

Gruen: I know you did.

You disappoint me, Meade.

You could be one of the best I ever had.

Why in hell are you so horseshit?

I'm not, sir.

Prove it.

How, sir?

Against me.

How, sir?

On the survival course.

Uh!

Go!

- Uh! - Not ready for me, you ain't!

You're easy, Meade!

You step slower, you step dumb, you hear me?

You fought on the other side of the war, it'd be over by now.

Oh, jeez!

- He's not expecting you. - He's always expecting me.

I'm on the phone.

Look, Gruen's here. I'll call you back.

- Christ, Bill. - I want the Cooper case. I got a hunch.

Your hunches suck, Gruen.

Don't even ask me to put you on this case.

I want you to put me on this case.

I'll fire your ass first.

Well, why don't I just quit

and take my hunch with me?

Great. Terrific.

Quit. It'll save me the embarrassment

of having to fire the great Bill Gruen.

I mean, never again will I have to explain to the reporters

about all the doors you kicked in

when your hunches were wrong.

Make it easy on me. Quit.

Well, you wanna be a hero?

Tell me who it is

and I might just reconsider.

It's a trade secret, Hank.

If I tell you, then the whole world will know about it. you know that?

Then why don't you call the New York office and have them fire me?

- Have it your way. - They'll be happy.

Yeah, Lily, get me Mr. Thornhill in New York.

You're not gonna embarrass me or the company.

Cooper's already done that.

Mr. Thornhill.

Yeah. How are ya?

I know who Cooper is.

Hello. Everything's fine on this end.

We're in constant contact with the FBI.

I know where he learned to jump.

We have a personnel situation here

that I thought you ought to be aware of.

I know who trained him. I know where his father lives.

Yeah, it's about Bill Gruen.

I know where his wife lives, I know how he thinks,

and I got a few ideas about where he may be going.

Yeah, I understand how you feel about it--

And I know you would love to work in the New York office.

I'm going to use Bill Gruen on a case.

- Afternoon, sir. - Howdy.

Mind if we look your car over?

No, not at all.

Let me see some ID.

- What's the problem, Corporal? - Just a check.

Your identification, please.

Well, he's all legal, the tag and everything.

I bagged him this morning.

Kinda hate to go home so soon, but he's a beauty, isn't he?

Mr. Johnson, would you mind getting out of your vehicle?

Would you open up this floor plate, please?

What's going on?

Would you open up that floor plate, please,

Mr. Johnson?

Thank you, Mr. Johnson.

You can go now.

Looks good.

Hi.

Hi.

Man on radio: On the local scene,

pickets blocked the entrance...

Let me have a hot dog and a Coke, please.

- How're you doing? - Just fine. How are you doing?

Man on radio: ...D.B. Cooper.

Who is he? Is he alive?

And if he is, how did he disappear

from the face of the earth?

Give us a call at KHC.

Do you guys like deer meat?

Daddy, he's gonna give us a deer.

He is?

Would you give me a hand over here?

Sure. What's the catch?

No catch. I don't need it.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

- You guys need some help? - I think we got it, thanks.

Dispatch: ...on Interstate 80.

A white male answering D.B. Cooper's description

has been sighted from the air moving west--

Man: Roger. Our ETA is five minutes.

Can you hang on one second?

Sure.

My wife likes the stuffing.

Hotter than a crotch, ain't it?

The word, El Capitan, the word... is "wetback."

I got a piece of información

that's gonna make somebody a very big hero around here.

And it is for sale, Mr. Remson? Like everything else you own?

A man's gotta make a living.

¿Cúanto?

You've been trying to figure out

where them illegals cross that river

since Hitler was a corporal, right?

¿Cúanto?

Plane ticket to Wyoming...

and $500.

Too much.

This is a firm offer. Let's not bullshit.

A plane ticket with 200.

Well, you ain't exactly Rebecca Sunnybrook Farms there, pal.

We got a deal?

My man, Meade.

Man on radio: You're listening to Wyoming's Big Sky Radio,

KJDB, Jackson Hole.

73 degrees.

Gruen: Good morning.

Good morning.

Hannah Meade?

That's me.

Wanna help me with this thing?

Okay.

It's right over there.

All right.

That's good right there. That's good.

I'm up here in the middle of nowhere

searching for your husband.

What kinda trouble is he in this time?

Trouble? None that I know of.

Did you say what your name is?

Gruen. Bill Gruen.

Bill Gruen wouldn't be Sergeant Gruen, would it?

Not anymore, no.

God. Well, you could've fooled me.

Steve, you wanna help with this?

Sergeant, give us a hand?

Okay.

Oh, my back.

What do you mean I could've fooled you?

Biggest son of a bitch on the face of the earth according to Jimmy.

Is that what he said?

I wouldn't lie to you.

Well, people change.

Six months ago, he was in Alaska.

After that, he was on a boat somewhere.

I don't know where he is now.

I take it that you and Meade aren't that close anymore.

No, he's just a postcard to me now.

Mind if I talk to you for a minute?

Okay.

Hello. Mad River Excursions.

Listen, I'd like to rent one of them boat trips down the river you got.

But I don't wanna be stuck with no hairy old lumberjack,

if you know what I mean. I'd kinda like to be

bouncing along with a slim, beautiful, melon-breasted,

- long-legged woman-- - We have an opening Wednesday afternoon.

Baby, it's me. I'm back!

Okay. What's your name and how many in your party--

No, no. There'll be one in my party.

It's me, Meade, your husband. I'm back.

Okay, so why don't you leave your number

and we'll call you and confirm in the morning.

Now, listen. Listen, I want you to meet me

tonight at the sawmill as soon as you can, okay?

Hannah? Hannah!

So, what if Jimmy were here? Then what?

Oh, right. Well, you see, I work for an insurance company

as a claims adjuster.

And we need stringers, right?

Uh, there's flexible hours, good pay.

Here's my card.

I thought I might be able to throw some money your husband's way.

Money doesn't really interest him.

What does these days?

Same things that interest me-- adventure, good times.

Well, your minute's up.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

♪ As I was out walking one morning for pleasure ♪

♪ I spied a cowpuncher a-riding alone ♪

♪ His hat was tossed back and his spurs were a-jingling ♪

♪ And as he approached me, he sang me this song ♪

♪ Yippee ti yi yo, get along, little dogies-- ♪

I'll tell you something, that son of yours

has got balls like an elephant.

I'll give him that.

He expects me to drop everything, come to papa--

in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere.

Same old Jimmy.

Well, I got news for you. This ain't the same old Hannah.

He's back again.

Oh, yeah. He's like a bad meal.

Probably wants his rare collection of bounced checks

and his six-month-old phone messages.

Like I wanna see him come crawling back here

with that shit-eating grin on his face--

everything's okay.

Like I didn't learn anything the-- the first time

or the second time.

Or the third time or the fourth time.

Uh, when you don't go to see him,

say hello to him for me, will you?

Whoo!

Is Mrs. Meade in yet?

Hannah. Yeah, she's over there shooting pool.

Could I have two beers, please?

Real thing right here.

That's a hell of a-- what is it, rainbow trout?

Jackson Hole cutthroat.

So's the guy with the smile.

Play some pool?

I got my hands full.

I don't like to gamble. Somebody always loses.

Somebody always wins.

An insurance man that doesn't believe in taking risks--

never heard of such a thing.

That photo, was it snapped around here?

In the middle of nowhere.

Meade's place, right? Where he likes it.

What kind of insurance does your company sell?

Fire and flood. You name it, we've got it.

Reporter on TV: Why do you think D.B. Cooper has become such a folk hero?

Man on TV: 'Cause he made a lot of money real fast.

Man #2: He beat the system. He beat the system.

- That's all it is. That's right. - Nobody got hurt.

Reporter: What do you think about this D.B. Cooper phenomenon?

Do you think he'll be caught?

Woman: I think he has a good chance of getting away with it.

Reporter: Who do you think D.B. Cooper really was?

It might've been a woman.

I think it's Howard Hughes.

I think he's a black man.

He's kinda like, um, Butch Cassidy.

He's a hero.

That's some stunt that guy pulled off.

It takes all kinds, I guess.

The person that turns him in is gonna be a national hero.

The person that turns him in oughta be shot.

Where he jumped, inside a week

they're gonna find him hanging from a tree.

How much does it pay?

What? Is there a reward?

No, I mean the job you were offering.

- Remember that? - Oh.

Well, it's a little tricky.

Does Meade's dad live around here, too?

Don't think he'd be too interested, do you?

You never can tell these days.

No, I guess you just really never can, can you?

Hannah: Hey, Homer, come on over here.

Sit down?

Yeah.

You know who this is?

I seen you this morning, didn't I?

Bill Gruen. How are you?

Sergeant Bill Gruen.

Remember the guy that rode Jimmy so hard in the Army?

I've heard some hellacious stories about you.

You're quite a legend around here.

Sit down.

I believe I will.

So what do you think?

I always figured he was bigger.

Well, I was.

So, what happened?

I don't know. I shrunk.

Wanna loan me 20 bucks, Bill?

Twenty bucks, why?

I'll pay ya back.

Put up or shut up, cowboy.

Hey, wait a minute. No way, no way.

Don't you wanna be one of the boys?

I don't wanna be one of the boys.

- We're talking Jackson Hole here, okay? - Well, I'm not.

Hey, Eddie, Dwayne, come on over here!

Homer here's gonna try to beat the man who stopped Jimmy Meade cold,

and I got 20 bucks says he can't.

- This is the guy. - I heard a lot of things about you.

Do me a favor and keep this guy busy for a while, will ya?

We know about you.

Come on, you can take him down.

How do you think I'm gonna do, old-timer? What do you think?

- I'm going to lose. - You're gonna win.

If he don't, I'm gonna whip you.

Okay.

- Ready? - Go!

Come on, Homer.

Come on. We always play three out of five, don't we?

Oh, yeah. Right, yeah. Three out of five.

Three out of five?

Go!

I lose.

I lose. Thank you very much.

Hey, where you going?

Meade?

Great.

What's this supposed to mean?

Great. You robbed a liquor store.

Real proud of you, Jimmy.

Finally, you're a big success.

What is this? 20, 40--

Hey, I'm impressed.

Oh, you robbed a bank.

You know, you're not that clever.

You were on a quiz show, that's it.

You put on a funny hat and milked a cow

while you guessed song titles?

Let's see now, what was your area of expertise?

Uh, lousy postcards?

How about leaving your wife, Meade?

Hey, is this all the money you made in the last six months?

I'm real impressed.

You printed this, you bastard, didn't you?

I'll probably have green ink all over my hands.

Oh, God.

Who the hell do you think you are, D.B. Coop--

Hannah, I did it.

What? What do you mean?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Now-- now, what do you mean, "Oh, my God"?

Oh, Meade. Oh, no, no.

Now, don't-- don't say no, Hannah.

Don't-- don't say no. Say yes.

Okay, say yes. Try it. It's easy.

Try it with your face. Just make your mouth in kind of a yes.

It's easy. Go ahead and try it. Yes, yes.

What do I have to do, draw you a picture, baby?

I mean, this is it for us, honey.

We can go anywhere we want.

We can do anything we want, you know?

Just the two of us high on the hog!

Are you trying to tell me the only reason

you did this thing is for me?

Absolutely. Only you.

And the money.

- Right.

So you think you can just buy me back with a few 20-dollar bills?

A few? Hannah, I'm talking about 10,000 20-dollar bills.

I mean, what you've got in your hands there,

that's just loose change.

I mean, you are talking tips, and I am talking icebergs.

You know what you can do with your loose change?

It's not that goddamn loose.

You know what? I'll tell you something.

Sometimes I can't believe how goddamn ungrateful you are.

- Ungrateful? - Yeah, ungrateful!

Do you think I still need you?

Hell, Hannah, I don't--

I don't know if you ever needed me.

But I know you still want me.

Don't you?

Okay. All right. Well, that's the part I hate.

Maybe I do.

Okay, okay. Now, that's a start.

That's a start, right? Come on.

- No. - Come on, baby.

- Oh, baby. - No.

No, no. Don't-- don't-- don't say no.

- No, no. - Just say yes--

There have been a lot of starts

and a lot of finishes and just no.

Hannah, listen to what I'm trying to tell you.

It's a whole new ball game. It's a whole new ball game.

This is good-bye, Mr. Screw-up,

and, hello, Mr. Responsibility.

All right, so you expect me to just drop everything

and-- and go off with you

and forget about all that stuff that's ever happened?

Absolutely.

Okay. You want-- you want me to beg?

Yes.

Then I beg. I will beg.

Okay. I will beg.

I will beg you, Hannah. I'm begging you, baby.

Baby, come with me. Remember all those times,

all those things we wanted to do?

All those places we wanted to go?

Little place we wanted to have by ourselves?

We could be all the way to the west

and all the way to the east.

Or you know what we could do?

We could get someplace way down south.

- Oh, honey, come with me, will you, please?

Gruen: Meade, the party's over!

- Oh, shit! - Who's that?

Oh, God, it's Gruen. He's been looking for you.

- Gruen? - Yes.

Aw, shit.

All I want, Meade, is the money.

There's nowhere to go. So let's talk.

You stay put till I give the signal.

Then run for the truck and get to my old man's house.

Why don't you stand up so I can see who I'm talking to?

I'm more comfortable the way things are, if you don't mind.

So let's keep this deal simple now, what do you say?

What's your deal, Sergeant?

They get their money back, they lose interest in who took it.

Follow what I'm saying here?

Bullshit.

Be careful, huh?

I bring the money back, they're gonna believe

D.B. Cooper's hanging from a tree in the woods.

They don't need a body.

Too many square miles.

Case closed.

- Bullshit! - All you can say is bullshit?

When I'm looking at you, yes!

You know what they oughta do? They oughta hang your ass

from the tail section of a 727

and then fly that stupid grin of yours

all around for public display.

Because I'll tell you something, sonny boy,

you're an outlaw, and there's no other word for it.

I ain't asking for your approval.

I ain't asking for your sympathy.

I mean, I just haven't seen you in a while.

And I'm taking a chance on getting my ass

blown to kingdom come by being here.

So I would appreciate a little bit

of friendliness or some goddamn thing.

Jesus. Hannah, you got too many brains

to run away with a bum like this.

Maybe I don't.

I am not a bum, God damn it!

No, you're right, not anymore.

You'd be better off if you were.

Look, I just wanted to say good-bye,

so forget it.

Oh, come on. What is this?

I think we should talk.

Okay, we talk.

Go ahead, talk. Talk fast. Go.

I want you to turn yourself in.

I'm walking through that door.

Why don't you just go out the back door?

I wanna walk through this door!

Well, you're gonna knock me down to do it!

Then I goddamn well will knock you down!

The back door!

I'm not going anywhere. I'm not moving.

You do want a pat on the head.

No, I don't.

Oh, yes, I do.

I was great, Dad.

I was really great.

Everything you taught me--

logistics, timing, and cover your ass.

Nobody got hurt.

And everybody in this whole goddamn country

knows it wasn't some asshole that pulled this one off.

I'm not impressed, you know?

You're still an outlaw.

Oh, so I'm an outlaw.

Say it a couple times, it don't mean much.

Outlaw, outlaw, outlaw!

But I'm a very successful outlaw.

You're acting like a couple of 10-year-olds.

Now, come on, let's get outta here.

Keep out of this.

This isn't something a woman would understand.

Oh, really?

I know this is so exciting.

Can I watch big daddy soldier and little boy soldier

beat each other up because little boy soldier

has to use the front door?

I mean, the back door of the big airplane was good enough.

And pretty soon, Mr. Gruen-- remember him?

- Gruen knows? - Yeah.

Now, get out of my way.

God, you dumb jerks.

I'm not moving.

- Neither am I. - Well, I am.

The sandbox isn't big enough for the three of us.

Dad...

I'm going out the back door.

I'll send you a postcard.

Some crazy son of a bitch blew up your truck, eh, Meade?

But I'm sure the insurance company will, uh--

will buy the story.

That was my truck.

My company's a whole different situation.

They don't care about stories, they care about money.

Now, if I walk in with the cash,

they won't even ask who D.B. Cooper is.

So why don't you go right to the money?

You won't go to prison, I get the glory.

I mean, I think it's a great trade, right?

Drop the gun, Sergeant.

That's a stupid mistake, sir.

Yes, well, I've made a lot of stupid mistakes in my lifetime.

My car's around the side.

Cover your ass, my ass.

- Next time. - Sure.

Well, Sergeant, why don't we go inside and have a drink?

I'm sure you've got a lot of war stories I haven't heard.

Oh, I think you've heard them all, sir.

Well, why don't you try me anyway?

I don't want a drink,

and I don't think you want to shoot me.

You think I won't use this?

Not since your son's got away, no.

You know, Sergeant,

I can't get anybody to do anything anymore.

I'm supposed to meet Mr. and Mrs. Meade.

Jimmy Meade?

Where, here?

Here or somewhere at their cabin.

It's very important.

- When? - How about right now?

Now? Going to sleep now.

There's $100 in this for you, Homer.

$100 ain't worth losing a whole night's sleep for, Sergeant.

Well, all I'm here to do is award him his inheritance.

Inheritance? Jimmy?

Yes.

Geez. This thing feels like a million bucks.

We could buy 10 boats with this.

Well, I'll tell you, it's enough to buy a dream.

That's it right down there.

Gruen: All right, let's go. Come on, let's go.

All right. Let's get this boy his money.

Meade sure can buy the drinks now, huh?

You know that house we thought about in the Pacific?

- Yeah. - Palm trees,

a little isle on the West Indies,

the Marianas?

Fiji? Samoa?

Come here.

- Let's use the motor. - Take it easy, man. What's your hurry?

Come on, let's go.

Son of a bitch, that's Gruen.

Homer: Hey, Jimmy! Got a surprise for you!

Hey, what's that crazy doing?

Hannah: Where are we going?

Into the river.

With this thing?

Yes. Hang on tight.

And hold on to them bags there.

Jimmy? Hey!

You better not go into that slide, man.

You'll get killed.

All right, let's get the motor in and grab the oar.

- Let's go. - No way, man.

- Let's go, Homer. - No means no.

I'll give you $500 for the day.

Five hundred dollars?

Five hundred.

You got it.

You just bought yourself a motor, too.

Okay, here we go.

Hang on, Hannah!

I'll tell you one thing, if that waterfall don't drown 'em,

it'll scare 'em half to death.

Who's horseshit now, Gruen?

- Are you ready? - Know what you're doing?

Hold on here.

- Hang on! - Whoa!

Whoa!

You still with me? Come on, man.

God damn him.

Watch where you're going!

I'm gonna kill Homer when I see him!

Forget Homer! Look where you're going, Meade!

Whoo!

Hang on! Hang on to the money!

I'm trying!

- Go around! - I'm trying, I'm trying!

Go around!

All right, I got it! I got it!

Watch the side!

Let's go, Homer!

We'll get there faster. We gotta stay alive now!

Homer, you're fired!

Quit yelling at him and watch the rocks!

You're gonna have to bail!

Hang on to the money!

There's a rock on the left!

Homer!

Grab my arm!

Grab the rope! Pull!

Pull, Homer!

Come on, let's go!

There's something up ahead there. You see it?

Jesus, watch the rock!

- Hannah! - I'm okay!

- You all right? - Get the money.

Where'd they go?

Jimmy?

- You okay? - I'm all right. You all right?

- We made it, baby. - Let's get outta here.

- We're good to go. - Oh, God.

It's this way.

No, it's this way.

No, wait a minute. Hang on.

How'd you ever find your way out of that 727?

Oh. You'd be amazed how easy it is after you take that first step.

Yep. It's this way.

Hold it. Hold it, hold it.

You hear something?

Just the river.

No, no, something else.

- Yeah. Okay. - Oh, God.

- Hey! - Hey!

Hey, hang on a minute!

- Hang on a minute! - Hey!

God damn it!

Hell, I can buy 20 of those.

Right now I'd settle for one.

How long do you think that money's gonna last anyway?

Well, I worked it out real careful,

and the way I figured is we got about 10 years in fat city.

Ten years?

Your half, maybe.

Mine'll last maybe eight or nine weeks if I'm lucky.

You got a point there. I think I should have asked for more.

- Where you going? - End of the line.

The hell it is. Come on.

Look, man, around that bend

is a drop-off, okay?

It's 60 feet straight down.

You carry the raft around it so you don't go over it.

Where the hell are they at?

They must've got out somewhere up there.

You sure of that?

Them guys, man, they're gone.

Keys are in it. What do you think?

Maybe he's off taking a piss somewhere or something.

Probably is.

Get in.

- Hannah: Ah! - Ha ha ha!

Hannah: Oh, my God!

Oh, God!

Can we get some heat on in here? I'm freezing.

Oh, Lord, give me some heat.

- Oh! - How the hell are you, buckaroo?

- What's going on? Who is this? - This is Remson.

It's all right, Mrs. Cooper. We're good buddies.

- Ain't that right, D.B.? - You know this man?

When you're up to your neck in some river you can't pronounce,

- it's real easy to make acquaintances. - Acquaintances?

Good buddies fighting the Yellow Peril

or Red Peril-- some kind of friggin' peril.

Did you tell everybody everything?

You gotta understand one thing, Mrs. Cooper,

when a man's crawling through a goddamn swamp on his belly

and there's a million Chinamen

trying to shove a stick of dynamite up his ass,

you start talking about things that you might be doing.

Old Coop here could do some talking,

ain't that right, D.B.?

I know all about you, too.

Well, I don't wanna hear about it.

- Slow down. - What's your deal?

My deal is we still need each other, D.B.

Jimmy! Jimmy. Jimmy.

We gotta get into Mexico. I own the border.

All I want is half the money

and I guarantee you safe passage, do you hear me?

- Come on! God damn it! - Jimmy!

Slow the hell down. Slow the hell down, man!

Pull that trigger and we are all dead, boy!

Shit, shit.

Seventy-five thou. I'll deal with you.

- Oh, shit. - Forty thou.

- Shut up! - Hang on!

It would really make my day if you were dead, Remson,

but I know you're not.

- What happened, Meade? - Well, we hit a tree.

- Jesus. - Can you move?

Huh? Ah ah ah ah.

Put your hand back, boy.

- Come on, let me help you up. - What did you do to us?

You look just like I did when you left me

in that Viet Cong rice paddy.

- I'm all right. - Don't make me pull this trigger.

Oh, okay, buddy. New deal now.

Twenty-five bills. That's the final offer.

Oh, wait a minute. Easy. Wait.

You're not gonna put me in there, are you?

- Come on, I'll die in that thing. - In you go, boy.

- Come on. - Get in!

Wait a minute. You're in luck now.

There's a new final offer coming at you. Ready?

- Coming down on you. - Best case 12.5.

Worst case 22 and some change.

Wait a minute. Can he breathe? Does he have air?

- I hope not. - Meade!

This is a terrible situation, Meade.

You bet.

Ow!

No! Wait, wait, Meade! No, not the rear end, Meade!

No, Meade! This is a Fleetwood, man.

Here, Remson. Try digging yourself out of this one.

Let's get outta here.

All right, okay.

Joke's over, all right?

He's funny. Hey, hey, guys, come on.

Yo!

Hey!

- What happened?

Yo! Yo, hey!

Goddamn tree came out of nowhere. Bang!

It's okay, it's cool. Could you open the trunk for me, please?

What are you doing in there?

Hey. Hey, listen.

It's a free county, all right? Just let me out, all right?

- Thank you so much. - Oh, shit!

Wait a minute!

Remson, you no-good, lowlife,

mother-jumping snake dick.

What are you doing here? I thought you were dead.

Dead? I got an honorable discharge.

Yeah, from whose side, and how much did it cost you?

That's a vicious rumor, Sarge.

- You know-- - Wait, wait.

Hey, Sarge, listen, as one veteran to another,

I'm very disappointed in your attitude toward me.

- What are you, a bounty hunter now? - No.

- I'm a businessman. - Yeah? You're scum.

Hey, come on, Sarge.

Come on, give me a break, will you? What--

There's a lot of names for what I do.

Are you-- what, do you want a price on that?

Which way did they go? Which way did they go?

Hey!

Let me ask you something there, Sacajawea,

what kinda view you think I got in here?

I got a pair of threes, all right?

Listen, I've been in better shape, man.

But I've been in a lot worse, too, you know what I mean?

Hey, Bill, listen, why don't we sit down

and-- and start with a clean slate, man?

We go back a long ways, Billy.

- Yo! Hey, Sarge,

I'm allergic to pine trees and spare tires, man.

- You still there?

Yep. Cash and carry.

Hannah: Come on, giddyap. I wonder what it'd be like

to write a check with money in the bank.

It's one of my wildest fantasies.

Well, I tell you something, babe,

I got 18 months of wild fantasies about you.

- You know what I mean, baby? - Same ol' Meade, huh?

Hey, it's not Meade, it's Cooper.

- D.B. Cooper. - Uh-huh.

It ain't Cooper. It's Gruen!

Gruen? You know what I got to say to him?

- Can't wait! - I'm gonna say...

Know where I could buy a car?

Don't sell cars, man.

But I'd really like you to have this.

I'd rather have a car.

I sell peace, I sell brotherhood,

and I sell junk.

Ain't capitalism wonderful?

It's got its heavy moments, brother.

Well, I'd like to stand here

and discuss political theory with you,

but I'm in a pretty big hurry to get outta here.

Man: I've got some reds, some greens,

and some weird little rascals get you down the mountain

day before yesterday.

Whose car is that?

Well, that's-- that's ours.

- It's not for sale. - Come on, how much?

You don't see where I'm coming from, man.

That's not just a car, that's a Ford Galaxy.

Oh, that's an endangered species?

- As a matter of fact, it is. - Yeah.

No amount of money can change my mind.

I'll give you $500 for it.

Sold.

Gruen: Good afternoon. How are you?

- Good. How are you? - Good.

You need something?

I was just looking at your beautiful animals there.

What'd they cost you, about a couple thousand each?

They're worth a new trailer to me.

That much?

Yeah, they got great cow sense.

Look at their ears and their eyes.

Yeah, their eyes. You're right, they're terrific.

You're right, but I'm a little more interested

in the couple who was riding them.

They stolen?

Could be.

- Trade a car for 'em? - They are stolen.

Maybe they aren't. I don't know.

You're changing your story.

Look, lady, I'm looking for two people.

- How you doing? - How are you?

You kids used to have another car, didn't you?

No, just the old pickup truck.

Oh, right. It was a blue Ford, wasn't it?

No, sorta rust.

Chevy.

Which way did it go?

- That way. - Thanks a lot.

Meade: The way I figure it is,

we got smooth sailing from here to the hideout.

We'll pick up some supplies,

and then we can just float our little white asses

into the land of milk and tacos.

Jesus, Meade. Hideout.

That's a-right, that's a-right.

All right, now, you know what?

I saw this in a movie once.

Now give me a mean, harsh look here.

Meaner. Mean!

Good.

See that?

See what's on the back of that thing?

D.B. Cooper! Hang on!

Yeah, that's it! Whoo!

- Whoo! That's the one!

Ah ha ha! I'm famous now.

I don't believe I ever saw baking soda sold by the gram.

Oh, man. Oh, I'm sorry, partner.

Some lowlife sold me a bill of goods.

The rest of this stuff is strictly on the level. It's primo, I promise you.

You're getting it at dealer's cost.

This hunk of junk right here

is worth a lot more than a pocketful of this bullshit.

Oh, hey, she's a classic,

and that's why I got some good news for you.

You want to know what my middle name happens to be?

Flexible. What's your price?

- $700. - $700?

You're abusing my flexibility, mister.

Look at that windshield wiper. That's shot to hell.

A man's gotta drive in the rain, you know?

Where's the ornament on this hood?

The tread situation on that front tire is disgraceful.

You know I'm gonna have to throw a bucket of paint on it

just to hide the rust.

$500.

Damn taillights are dinged out.

And this little picture here, that's fallen off.

You gotta backorder that, you know.

All right, all right. Four hundred, and that's it.

Man, I don't know.

You're running a little thin on chrome, ain't ya?

Well, if you stand back a little bit, squint your eyes,

you'll never notice.

Just a little Bondo under there?

- Huh? - Well, maybe a little.

Two hundred?

I'm gonna tell you something, cowboy.

You've just been shot in the ass full of luck.

I'm gonna give you $100 for this car.

Hundred dollars, huh?

Well, you caught me a little short this week.

Put a little paper money right there,

and you got a deal.

Here. Wait a minute. There you are.

You drive a hard bargain, I gotta tell you that.

A man don't use his head,

he might as well have two assholes.

And I do. Now, where's the keys?

Keys in the car.

Adios, pally.

Adios.

Hoo-hoo!

Hey!

My wheels! You see who took my car?

Well, as a matter of fact, I did.

Some sorry-looking mess

just drove down the road with it.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Eat that, right there.

I want you to eat all of that that's left over.

Go ahead. Come on.

I could, but I don't want it.

You know what? with tostada on your face.

Listen, we gotta pull this thing over. Come on.

We can't take a chance.

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

Oh, I'm in heaven.

Now, wait a minute.

Oh! Ha ha!

I think I'm there! I'm home!

Come on!

Whoo-hoo!

Hoo! Hot damn. I'm gonna get me a possum.

Stay right where you are, honey.

Goddamn rodent! Give me a break.

Hey, partner, your truck's ready now.

Wake up, honey.

When you brought that vehicle in here,

it was running rougher than a broke dick dog.

Now it's running slick as snot on a doorknob.

I thought all it needed was water.

Well, it did,

but since I got the only water hose

between Gilford and Gum City,

it's a bigger problem than you might think.

Well, how much?

Now, hold on here, partner.

I took the liberty of repairing some things

- about to go. - How much?

Your brake pads weren't thick enough to spread cheese on.

Your differential was dryer than fish turds in a sandstorm.

Your distributor had more problems than a hippopotamus with chapped lips.

What is this, a gas station or a zoo?

A lot more.

Just tell us how much it is, will you, please?

Mm-hmm.

$514.

Here's 250.

Keep the change.

Truck's out back, and I wanna tell you one thing.

It's running slicker than owl shit now.

I'll bet it is.

Have a nice trip, buddy.

You know, I've been looking for a good mechanic.

Well, you heard the man, smoother than owl shit.

Smoother than owl shit, huh?

You looking for this, D.B.?

Remson, you greasy, filthy chicken pecker.

Look who's holding the gun now, asshole.

Move around.

A man gets a chance to-- get your hands up.

A man gets the chance to do a lot of thinking...

...when he's locked up in a trunk

alone with his thoughts.

And, D.B., it looks like I'm gonna be taking all the money now,

because of the personal humiliation involved, you understand?

Grab some sky there, toots.

Come on now, Remson, ol' buddy.

Oh, ol' buddy? Oh, we're buddies now?

You told the woman we were acquaintances! You remember that?

Don't insult me, man!

I'd say it's pretty tough to insult you.

Oh, Hannah. Oh, how could you--

Ow! Fuck!

Damn it! Jesus Christ!

All right, let's go, Remson. Come on.

Ow! What're you doing?

Oh, shit! What're you doing?

Hey, come on, man. Don't leave me like this.

Come on, buddy. Get back here!

Meade, help me out here!

What can I do you for, partner?

I give up. Where the hell am I?

Well, welcome to Alvarado.

You're damn near on the outskirts of Tucson.

How far out would that be?

Well, I'd say about a tank and a half of gas.

Well, how far is the border?

Well, now, that depends.

Now, you could snake back to Highway 33,

cut over to 16 South,

and then sneak on across to 112.

- That's great. - Of course,

you might like 605 to the interstate.

- And then there's-- - That's fine, fine.

Just fill her up, check the oil,

check the water, everything.

Oh, all righty.

Yeah, this is my kind of car, all right.

Start running up a tab right now.

Hank?

Where in the hell are you?

Alvarado.

Shit! God damn!

We're calling you off this goose chase right now, Gruen.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

I'm doing everything I can to find this guy.

You're doing everything you can to bury me.

Don't you ever think about me, Gruen?

Look, Hank, give me a little more time!

I'm gonna nail his ass.

You're fired, hero. Don't come home.

That'll be nine dollars and two pennies.

Hey, I noticed your tires ain't wearing too smooth.

Why, they're so thin, they only got one side.

My tires are fine.

And your carburetor sounds like it's got asthma.

It does. Can I have my change?

God damn, I seen enough 20s today

to burn a wet mule in pouring down rain.

What do you mean by that?

Forget the pennies. Oh, a young couple come through here

flashing 20s like it was going out of style.

Long-legged broad.

Yeah? Did they say where they were going?

Right yonder.

Mexico, huh?

How long ago was that?

I don't know. What can I say?

You snooze, you lose.

That's right. Take it easy.

It's a long road that don't turn.

Same to you, pal.

Small world.

How'd you get out of the trunk?

Experience.

You know which way they might've gone?

You're damn right. I got a good idea where he used to hide out,

but I'm not gonna tell you.

Fine, then walk.

Wait a minute. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You don't wanna deal?

What kind of deal?

What I'm saying is I'm not gonna tell you what I know

if I don't feel like, you know,

we're on this thing together.

What kind of proposition do you have in mind exactly?

Well, you wanna talk 50-50? That sounds good to me.

Okay, hop in. Let's go. Come on.

Start talking.

What're you doing? Come on, man!

Come on, what are you doing? Get back here, Gruen!

God damn it, I told you what you wanted to know!

You ungrateful bastard!

I don't know, Meade.

Even if this thing was overlooking the Mediterranean,

I don't think I could call it a villa.

Oh, you'll get used to it.

I know. That's what worries me.

One, two, three.

What?

- Shh.

Oh, no.

You stay with the money.

- Oh!

Jimmy!

Oh! Unh!

Aah! Meade!

Jimmy! Gruen's got the money. He's over there.

I'll kill him.

- Take the truck! - Flat tire!

Hey! Where you going with that airplane?

Hey! It's grounded!

Hey! Come back here with that airplane!

Jesus Christ, come back!

Shit! It's not supposed to work!

Aah!

I want that money back, Gruen! It's mine!

Get out! Get out!

Hey, Sarge!

You're mine!

Shit. Come on, baby. Don't fail me now.

Come on.

I'm gonna get you, Gruen!

You got my drift?

Come on, Gruen!

- You're crazy! - I've got you!

Come on, now. Come on. Come on.

Jesus Christ! Whoa!

Come on, don't quit. Don't quit on me now.

Don't quit, don't quit!

Ah, what the hell.

Whoo!

Get outta here! Get out!

Give me back my goddamn money!

Maniac!

How do you like your new sunroof, Gruen?

Come on, come on. Come on, God damn it!

That's it. Come on.

That's it. All right, all right!

Meade: Okay!

Meade: Whoo-hoo!

You okay?

Compared to what?

You're okay.

Still have your gun?

Yeah.

You wanna see it?

No.

- You got yours? - No.

How'd you know it was me?

Not too many people could make a jump like that.

Half of them are in jail, half are dead.

The other half are right here.

- That's right. - Yeah.

So, what are you gonna do with it?

With what?

The money.

Oh, yeah.

Well, I owe somebody for a plane.

How about a car?

And a car.

You know, there's a real good mechanic around here

who does miracles with 25 grand.

We're even.

Meade?

Do you think all this bullshit was worth it?

Yeah.

See you later.

You bet.

Ha ha! Got you now, Meadesy!
