Herbie Goes Bananas Page #3

not a floating carnival.

The only women aboard were dragged

there by the scruff of their neck.

Gives me goose bumps

just thinking about it.

The Captain is just having

a little jest, ladies.

I'm only telling it like it was.

And should be.

When you talked about liberation

in those days...

...you were talking about battles.

Nations.

Empires.

Captain. Oh, my word!

Sorry.

But, Captain, how can a car

release a boy with a key? Explain that.

I can't explain that any more than

I can explain the Bermuda Triangle.

- Nor do I intend to try.

- I am the sponsor of that little car.

It's going to win

the Brazil Gran Premio.

If you can bring that off, madam,

I will not only part the Red Sea...

...I will tint it magenta!

Captain, I appeal to you as a woman.

A desperate, helpless,

single woman.

Spare that car.

Lorelei and all of her sirens

could not make me veer one degree.

My course is set!

Ship's company.

Stand to, to witness punishment.

Sir. Some of the passengers

might not understand.

I am simply abiding

by the traditions of the sea...

...Chief Steward!

By the powers vested in me

as the captain of this ship...

...I hereby deem

this vehicle a menace...

...to life and limb and the very

safety of the vessel itself.

I herewith commit it to the sea...

...and a fate well deserved.

Doff hats.

Seamen.

Do your duty.

You too?

Bag and baggage.

Anyone remotely associated with

that little car is being put ashore.

If it wasn't for that steward,

we'd have been keelhauled.

I'm sorry it turned out like this.

If I decided to get out of needlepoint

and into racing, it was my choice.

Actually,

there's more to it than that.

Steady. Steady.

We needed backing,

so DJ pitched you on the car...

...while I...

Pitched my niece on the fantail.

I've got too much mileage on me...

...not to recognize an operation

when I see one.

You..? You mean you knew that?

Well...

...I was hoping that something might

happen between you and Melissa.

She's really a wonderful girl.

That's just it.

She's terrific, but...

A little klutzy

for someone like yourself.

Not everybody's made

for each other.

I really like her,

and I don't want her to get hurt.

I planned to tell her, but maybe

you could smooth things over.

- Here's your bag, miss.

- Thank you.

Melissa, there you are.

I was looking...

You meet such interesting types

on ships.

Melissa!

Sorry, boys.

Come on, pal.

How do you say in Panamanian...

..."We need a job"?

I don't know where you're taking this

boy, but I have a prior claim on him.

- Are you from Juvenile Authority?

- Yes, I am.

No, he's not.

We'll handle this.

Grab that kid.

Hold that kid.

He's wanted by the police.

We gotta get that kid.

We'll get him.

Harve? You better come

take a look at this.

What the devil is that?

I don't know.

It's supposed to be the Major Maroo.

Ocho?

Ocho!

I'm coming, Ocho, I'm coming!

Aydame!

ndale!

Vmonos.

What is the matter, muchacho?

It's an old wreck.

But he was my good friend.

Your friend is

good for nothing but junk.

Hey.

Even junk is worth something.

Bye, Ocho.

Vaya con dios.

Ocho!

Come on, Ocho, you can do it.

Try. Try!

Please, Ocho, come on. Please!

Don't give up now.

Please, please!

Try. Try!

I'll help you.

It's those men.

Come on, you've got to start!

You're whipping

a dead horse, muchacho.

We gotta get out of here, Ocho!

This is our car now.

Go play someplace else.

Okay, muchacho.

You feeling better, Ocho.

You look good, Ocho.

Like a real taxi.

Now we're gonna make

lots of money.

Then Paco never has to take

nothing from nobody again.

Just relax, sonny.

Now, where is it?

Where's what?

There was some film in the wallet

you took from us in Puerto Vallarta.

When we got it back,

it was missing.

Now, where is it?

I don't know.

Maybe it got mixed up.

What do you mean, mixed up?

With the other man's wallet.

He's lying.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Now, you listen to me.

I want that film back.

I don't care how you do it.

Just get it back.

Because if you don't...

He's gonna cut this car of yours

up into tiny little pieces.

You understand, kid? Little strips

to hang on your Christmas tree.

Comprende?

S.

You know, Pete,

I was just thinking.

Do you realize that that car

could have put us in the big time?

We could've been

international celebrities.

You know what I mean?

Endorsements.

Groupies chasing after us.

It's that kid. Murphy's law took

over when we ran into that brat.

Hi, guys.

Speaking of four-foot crimewaves!

I come to say

I sorry if I make trouble for you.

Well, fine. See you around.

Paco go. I just want you

not be mad at me.

Now, don't start that.

Nobody's mad.

It's water over the dam.

I'm sorry. Please.

You forgive me?

Fine, kid. No hard feelings.

Forget it.

Straight back there, through

that hallway and to the right.

Gracias.

Gloryoski,

just makes you feel good all over.

He did it again!

Come back here, you little...

- Hey, that's our car!

- Our car? How can that be our car?

I don't know.

Let's get him.

We better get outta here

or those guys'll get you back.

Shepard's ready.

He's got the plane.

Good. Here comes the boy.

Why, that little double-crossing...

Come on!

Taxi. Taxi!

Taxi. Taxi!

I can get in here.

It's a little tight.

Pardonnez moi, seor.

I'm in. I'm in.

Can I get in.

- Pier Six, the Sun Princess.

- Pier Five, the Windsong.

- You!

- You!

- I'm terribly sorry.

- I'm so excited.

- I must return to my ship.

- I'm so pleased.

You can have the cab after that.

- Pier Six...

- Pier Five.

- We're in real trouble now, Ocho.

- ... and full steam ahead!

Where in blazes are you going, driver?

No comprendo, seor.

You people comprendo enough

when you want to.

Wait a minute.

It's that same kid.

And here's the biggie.

I think it's the same car.

It's a ghost!

Let me out of here.

Let me out of here.

It's the yardarm for you.

I can't stop now, seor.

Look!

Melissa. Melissa!

Help!

- Help. I'm being shanghaied!

- Melissa!

Help, Melissa!

Help, I'm being shanghaied!

The kid robbed us again.

- He's shanghaied them!

- Shanghaied?

Seor. Stop!

Could you please stop?

Por favor! Alto!

Por favor! Alto!

Please stop.

Por favor, seor!

Muchas gracias!

How much?

- How far you want to go?

- No, how much for the whole bus?

Is $340 enough?

Lady, you got yourself a bus.

Next bus, please!

Now, listen to me, son.

If you don't release me

this instant...

...I'll have you tied to a cannon

to be discharged at sunset!

I can't stop. Two men said

they'd cut up Ocho into pieces...

...and two other men

are very mad at me.

Is that banging noise new?

Just louder.

It might throw a rod.

Is that serious?

Not if it happens

in front of a hotel.

Are we still in Panama?

Panama's long gone.

What? Let me out of here!

Can't, capitn,

there's some men after me.

No, Ocho, not in there.

What was that?

We're at the bullfights, capitn.

Oh, this is exciting.
