another sandwich.

- Come on, forget it.

- No, forget it.

Forget it. I don't wanna stay

around here anyway.

Let me buy you

a beer then?

I'll buy you a beer.

Get out of here?

I'm sorry to bother you,

but I could use help.

- What kind of help? - I could use

a push. Damn thing overheated.

Now I can't get her

started again.

- Why didn't you flag down

that truck? - What truck?

- The one that just went by here.

- I didn't notice.

I must have been inside tryin' to

get that piece of junk shakin'.

Would you get off the car?

How about it?

Looks like I'd go

right underneath the bumper.

Hey, get off the car.

You're gonna get hurt there.

Naw, you're all right.

Rodney, get down from there.

You too, Shawn. Come on, everybody!

Back on the bus!

Wait a minute!

Wait, I...

Well, we'll see.

Come on. Come on.

Push!

He can't do it!

You can't do it!

You can't do it!

You can't do it!

You can't do it!

Mr. Pfeiffer,

that guy's stuck too.

You can't do it!

Sorry, mister.

I coulda swore we were okay.

- I told you we were gonna get hung up.

- How 'bout I give you a hand?

Don't, don't,

don't sit on the hood.

That hood'll dent. I told the kids

not to get on the hood.

Just see if you

can bounce it loose...

and I'll...

Just bounce it loose.

Hold it!

Somethin' wrong?

That bastard turned around

and came back.

Is that the truck

you were askin' about?

Get those kids

out of the way.

- What for? - Just get them off

the road and they'll be okay.

They're all right.

They're not on the road.

Get, get back

in the bus. Please!

Come on. Back in the bus!

You're all right

right where you are...

long as you stay off the road.

Come on!

- You're perfectly all right.

- Let's get back in the bus, come on.

Get off of the highway.

There's a truck coming.

You must be

out of your brains!

- Come on! Please!

- Take your hands off these...

- Get back in the bus!

- Get your hands off him!

Now, look, I know

how this must sound,

but that man is crazy.

He's been trying to kill me.

If I had to vote on who's crazy,

it'd be you.

When I bust 'em loose,

pull it back.

Now!

Hi.

Help you, mister?

- You got a telephone?

- Out in back.

- This way?

- Something for your car?

Well, you can...

- put what Ethyl you can get in

the tank. - All righty.

- Would you mind checking those

radiator hoses? - I'll do that.

Take a look at my snakes

if you have time.

Weird place

for a telephone booth.

I'd like to report a truck driver

that's been endangering my life.

- In that case, I'll have to give you the

police, sir. - Right. Give me the police.

- Sir, which department do you want?

- Whichever's closer.

- What number are you calling from?

- This number is 9821.

- What's your name, sir?

- David Mann.

- How do you spell that, please?

- M-A-N-N. That's two "N"s.

I'd like to report...

a truck driver that's

been endangering my life.

- Your name again?

- David Mann.

Why'd he do that?

Why'd he break

my cages up?

Why'd he break

my cages up?

- Call the police!

- With what?

That's the only phone

I've got!

My snakes!

I've got to find my snakes!

Oh, my snakes.

My snakes.

The highway's all yours, Jack.

I'm not budgin'

for at least an hour.

Maybe the police

will pull you in by then.

Maybe they won't, but at least

you'll be far away from me.

"Well, dear, did you

have a nice trip?"

"No. Just the, same old thing."

Well, I won't be seein'

Forbes today, that's for sure.

What's the matter,

car trouble?

In a way, yes.

Will you do me a favor?

- What's that? - Would you stop

at the nearest telephone...

- and call the police?

- Police?

- You see that truck?

- Mister, we don't want any trouble.

- There won't be any trouble.

- Oh, yeah, I see him.

- Just call the police.

- Was there an accident?

All I'm asking you to do

is just make a phone call.

- Jim, step on the pedal.

- My life's in danger!

- I'm sorry, mister...

- Can't you make a lousy call...

- to the police?

- Stop it, mister. You're scaring us.

- Drop me at the nearest station.

- I'll pay you for it!

Jim!

Okay, let's see you

catch me now.

Here we go.

Can't beat me on the grade.

You can't beat me on the grade!

Come on.

How can he go so fast?

The radiator hose!

Oh, no, please! No!

Oh, my God!

Come on, faster!

Oh, my God.

Come on!

Come on.

Please.

Come on.

Come on, car.

Come on, let's go!

Come on!

Where's the summit?

Please. Please.

Come on!

Come on!

There it is.

There it is!

Faster. Faster!
