by the time you get there.

Listen carefully.

I will drive along nice and easy.

Just me and a busload of kids.

I'll turn off at Sir Drake Blvd.,

on my way to Santa Rosa Airport.

I don't want any police cars...

...helicopters, whatever.

If you play this game by the rules,

the kids will have a nice plane ride.

Where are you going?

I'll tell the pilot

when I get on. No alerts.

I guarantee you, you will not

be molested in any way.

I give you my word of honor.

Marcella Platt. It checks.

Willing to take the money to him?

When will you stop messing around with

this guy? He has to be stopped now!

He's got a busload of kids

and I can't take that chance.

I gave my word of honor

and he will not be molested!

And that's a direct order!

You can just get yourself

another delivery boy.

Row, row, row your boat

Gently down the stream

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily

Life is but a dream

Where are we going?

-This isn't the right way!

-We're going to the ice cream factory.

Anyone doesn't want to, can get off.

I want to go home to my mother.

Go home to your what?

Now, sing! Sing again!

Row, row, row your boat

What's the matter?

Don't you sing?

Are you sick? What is it?

Sing or your mothers will die!

I'll kill your mothers!

And the rest of you!

Get in the right-hand lane.

Not right to treat children that way.

-You'll hurt them.

-Just drive the goddamn bus!

And get in the right-hand lane!

I want my mother.

The sign, Sir Drake Blvd.

Make a right there.

Not this one.

I want my mother.

Shut up!

Just get to the right!

Jesus!

What the hell is he doing up there?

What the hell are you doing?

Pass the V.W., will you?

Drop the gun, creep!

I'll blow his brains out.

Drop the f***ing gun!

I know what your thinking, punk.

You're thinking:

"Did he fire 6 shots, or only 5?"

To tell you the truth, I forgot myself,

in all this excitement.

But being this is a.44 Magnum,

the most powerful handgun...

...and will blow your head clean off...

...you've got to ask yourself...

..."Do I feel lucky?"

Well, do you, punk?
