Everyone's jostling for position as

we hit the asphalt again.

Francesco crests the hill, in last place. He bites down,

determined, then CHASES.

BRENT MUSTANGBURGER (V.O.)

Francesco lost a lot of momentum in

the dirt. He's got some serious

work ahead of him if he wants to

get back in this race.

45.

VARIOUS SHOTS OF TOKYO as the racers move through the Rainbow

Bridge. Bit by bit, Francesco ekes his way toward the front,

toward Lightning McQueen as we CUT TO ---

--- A ROOFTOP, and a VIEW THROUGH THE WGP CAMERA LENS. Grem

and Acer are manning this one. They focus it on the racers as

they approach.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP (OVER RADIO)

It is time.

GREM:

Roger that.

ON THE TRACK - A racer (Miguel Camino) suddenly PLUMES WITH

SMOKE and skids out.

DARRELL CARTRIP (V.O.)

Oh! Miguel Camino has blown an

engine!

BRENT MUSTANGBURGER (V.O.)

Very unusual, Darrell. He's been so

consistent all year.

Camino quickly pits, passing McQueen's pit where Mater is

visible.

ON GREM AND ACER, watching from above.

GREM:

You gotta be kidding me.

ACER:

What is it?

GREM:

It's that tow truck from the

bathroom.

ACER:

The one from the bathroom?

GREM:

Yeah, the one the American Agent

passed the device to.

ACER:

What about him?

GREM:

What about him? He's in the pits!

46.

ACER:

Not for long.

Acer exits, with purpose.

ON FINN AND HOLLEY, still in their office hideaway. Holley's

onboard computer flashes an ALERT.

HOLLEY:

Hold on. I think I've got

something.

FINN:

What is it?

HOLLEY:

The Pacer from the party last

night.

She's spotted Acer, moving swiftly forward.

HOLLEY:

Cross-referencing with the photos

from the oil derricks... Yep. His

VIN numbers match.

FINN:

Anyone with him? He won't be alone.

HOLLEY:

Conducting analysis on the target.

The computer finds more and more bad guy Pacers and Gremlins

are in the crowd.

HOLLEY:

He's not the only one here.

Three... five... they're

everywhere. And they're all closing

in on... oh no.

We PAN OVER to see it's MATER.

HOLLEY:

Finn? Finn, where are you?

She turns. He's GONE, leaving only an open window.

FINN (OVER RADIO)

Get him out of the pits now!

IN MCQUEEN'S PIT. A car WHIPS BY O.S.

47.

MATER:

Wow! Some of them fellers is really

loud.

HOLLEY (OVER MATER'S RADIO)

Can you hear me? Over.

MATER:

Uh, what?

HOLLEY (OVER MATER'S RADIO)

Get out of the pit now. Do you hear

me?

Mater realizes this girl has somehow broken into his radio.

MATER (INTO RADIO)

Hey, I know you. You're that girl

from the party last night. You

wanna do our date right now?

ON THE TRACK - McQueen boxes out Francesco, holds his slim

lead, but barely.

MCQUEEN:

Guys, a little too much chatter.

Let's keep this line clear.

BOOM! A racer behind McQueen suddenly expels black smoke,

skids out of control.

ON GREM - laughing. That was clearly his handiwork.

IN MCQUEEN'S PIT - SAME

HOLLEY (ON MATER'S RADIO)

There's no time for messing about.

You've got to get out of the pits.

MATER:

Is there gonna be cable where you

is so I can watch the rest of the

race?

ON HOLLEY - Watching from the downtown building.

HOLLEY (INTO RADIO)

You're running out of time!

FINN (OVER RADIO)

They're coming, Shiftwell.

HOLLEY (INTO RADIO)

Yes, I know.

48.

FINN (OVER RADIO)

Get him out of there.

HOLLEY:

(TO FINN)

I'm trying.

(TO MATER)

Get out now!

We CUT BACK TO ---

--- MATER. He gives in, exits the pit.

MATER:

Well, all right but I usually like

to have a proper detailing done

before I meet a lady friend.
