This has been

[Groans]

Ah, dude.

Dude, you all right?

I have a--

[Groans]

[Male Announcer]

You are about to witness

the best racing...

in the Pacific Northwest.

- Where the hell is he?

- I don't know.

I haven't seen him.

Bring it on in.

Bring it on in.

[Man Chattering]

[Motorcycle Approaching]

I checked it.

I checked it.

Stay focused.

[Male Commentator]

A packed crowd here today.

Looks like the whole town

of Riverwood has come out

to cheer 'em on.

[Doorbell Rings]

Hi.

Okay--

It's-- Hey! Ma'am!

Come on.

We're gonna be late.

Don't forget your stuff.

[Sighs]

Let's go, let's go!

Spot's saved, bro.

For who, your girlfriend?

No, for your mom.

Dude, where the hell

have you been? Come on, come on.

We gotta go. Let's hurry.

Let's hurry.

Where you think I've been?

Come on! We're...

running out of time.

How much time do I got?

They're at the gates.

[Exhales]

[Engines Revving]

- Cuttin' it close, man.

- Wasn't gonna let you off

that easy.

To the flag.

To the flag.

You guys make me

wanna barf.

[Revving]

[Announcer]

There they go!

Let's get it on, folks!

- [Grunting]

- [Man Rapping]

[Announcer, Indistinct]

Maynard and Bryant are leading,

with Black pressing.

Throttle down!

Come on!

[Announcer]

Oh! Maynard jumps out

in front.

Red 62,

with Bryant pressing second.

Bryant in the traditional

blue and whites,

number 71.

Derek Black in yellow,

number 37, and third so far.

[Continues, Indistinct]

My style is di bom digi bom

di deng di deng digidigi

[Vocalizing]

[Continues]

[Announcer, Indistinct]

It's Maynard, Bryant, Black.

Fans, this is a three-man race,

with Maynard in the lead,

Bryant and Black

right on his tail.

[Continues]

Let's go, buddy!

[Announcer]

Justin Maynard in the lead,

with Bryant and Black

right on his tail.

Bom di deng di deng digidigi

Justin Maynard in the lead.

He's coming around,

and Derek Black--

[Continues, Indistinct]

Watch out for Derek!

Watch out for--

[Announcer]

Over the hill,

and Black moves in front!

Oh, and he tags Maynard's--

[Indistinct]

Maynard is down!

Maynard is down!

Derek Black

moves into first place,

and Cale Bryant now

has a lock on second!

Medic! Medic!

[Announcer] Black and Bryant

are headed for the finish line.

Here they come.

Oh. Wait a minute.

What's he doing?

- What's he doing?

- Cale, what are you doing?

- Cale!

- [Announcer] Cale Bryant

is turning around, folks!

He is headed directly

into traffic!

This is a very dangerous

move, folks!

He has pulled out of the race

to look after his friend.

Derek Black takes the checkered

flag and 100 points!

- [Cheering]

- Medic team to the track.

Medics to the track, please.

Justin. Hey. Justin!

[Exhales]

Justin!

Can you hear me?

Somebody get some help

over here!

[Groans]

Hey! Hey!

- You all right, dude?

- I think I'm--

I think I'm dying.

What?

No, dude, listen to me.

You're fine. Hang on.

- I-I see a bright light.

- Justin-- Stay with me, man.

Wake up. Come on.

It's being blocked out by--

by a giant Brillo pad.

- [Laughs]

- You had better be dying,

or I'll kill you myself.

[Grunts]

What happened?

That happened.

[Announcer]

This is the last call--

Is Justin okay?

Yeah, Justin's fine.

So you don't get

any points today?

Nope. Sorry.

Well, crap!

Hey! Where'd you

learn that?

School. Haley says it

all the time.

Here, I'll take it, man.

Thanks, man.

Hey.

Well, that was really brave.

And stupid.

Come on, Mommy.

Look, I know why you did it.

You could've really

gotten hurt, okay?

Here.

- Did you see Crystal?

- We called and waited, but we

didn't want to miss the race.

She totally

flaked on you, Cale.

I'd dump her.

Hey. Hey.

Would you explain to me

why you were 50 yards

from second place...

in a very important

qualifying match and quit?

Did you see Justin crash?

I thought he was dead.

Yeah? You think he's gonna

reimburse you the 500 bucks

or the 50 points...

you lost going back for him?

Look, Cale, I know you really

need the money, man. And we

sure as hell need the points.

Friendship does not have

a place on the racetrack.

You got it?

I don't do this for my health.

This is my business,

and I provide a bike for you

to do one thing-- win.

That's it.

And I have.

Not recently,

and not enough for you to be

throwing away points.

You pull another stunt like

this, Cale, and we're through.

You got it?

Miss Bryant.

Good afternoon.

- What a fart-face.

- Bailey!

[Rock]

What?

[Continues]

We're growing up

and getting by

Scared we might not

make it out alive

The clock is running out

but there's still time

Your life is on the line

It's either sink or swim

You lose or win

No giving up

or giving in to them

Sing while you can

And don't pretend

the future's in their hands

So make a point

Stop pointing fingers now

Sing while you can

- 'Cause this could be the

best years that you have

- [Blusters]

[Laughs]

Our words are weapons

Pull the trigger now

[Fades]

Hi.

Hello, Bud.

What do we have today?

We have blackberry crumble.

Mm-hmm.

Mmm. Nice work.

Well, if I'd made it,

I'd take the compliment.

Presentation is everything.

Don't sell yourself short.

Hmm. Nice line.

That's cute.

Sing while you can

- And don't pretend

the future's in their hands

- I'm buyin' you a watch.

Hey, Jeannette.

Hi, Crystal.

Hey. Are they here?

[Singing, Indistinct]

Hey. Did you bring it?

Sing while you can

'cause this could be

You want some overtime, Cale?

I've got a few hours for you.

I've got to put in

a pizza shift tonight.

If you want to make

assistant manager--

I know. I gotta put in the time.

Sing while you can

And don't pretend the future's

in their hands

So make a point

Stop pointing fingers now

Sing while you can

Your tally was

a little light yesterday.

Uh, I'll make it up

on my next win.

- You said that last time.

- Pull the trigger now

Hey.

Hey.

Thought I'd catch a ride.

All right.

Why'd I get so lucky?

[Chuckles]

Missed you

at the track the other day.

I told you.

I had to study.

Wanna come over tonight?

Still gotta study.

Come on. Don't you ever

give it a break?

Hey, I'm just thinking

about my future.

What, you think I don't?

That's not what I said.

It's a big year for me.

A few more in the top three,

I can get a sponsorship.

A real one.

Yeah, but what if you
