Herbie Goes Bananas Page #4

Synopsis: Pete Stancheck inherits from his Uncle Jim Douglas a race car being stored in Puerto Vallarta. With his friend Davy Johns (D.J. to his friends) accompanying him to P.V., Pete is dismayed to learn that the car is an older model Volkswagen Beetle. But when Pete and D.J. see what the car can do and learn that it somewhat has a mind of its own, they decide to enter it into the Brazil Grand Primeo formula one race. En route to Rio de Janeiro, Herbie, the car, gets Pete and D.J. into one predicament after another as it tries to help its new friend, a streetwise orphan named Paco, who Pete and D.J. encountered in P.V. and who stowed away in Herbie's trunk. Because of these predicaments, Pete and D.J. end up requiring a quick influx of cash and slyly enlist the help of wealthy Louise Trent and her bookish niece, anthropology doctoral candidate Melissa, to be their financiers. Pete's role in the scheme is to woo the shy Melissa, about which he feels guilty. But initially unknown to all of them,

I think it will be, seora.

What did he mean by that?

God bless you.

Turn in there.

- This can't be right.

- Back up.

We're gonna...

What are we gonna do?

Just ignore him.

Come on.

Get it off the car.

Come on!

Oh, interesting. Hey!

Please get us out of here.

I'm not asking for myself.

I'm very worried about this lady.

- How thoughtful.

- Just shut up!

That first gangway.

Move it.

Look out, Ocho!

We're stopped.

Where's the bull?

There he is.

What a magnificent animal.

I think you can see him better

from here.

Go away, bull.

Ocho, are we gonna let him

get away with that?

Yes, you are.

Let's get out of here.

Ocho, he's gonna kill you.

You just can't stand here doing nothing.

You've gotta fight.

Take a good look at him.

He's a killer!

He is going to fight.

Thattaboy, Ocho!

I can't believe this!

30 years at sea,

and I'm gonna die in a bullring.

Hey, toro. Toro!

Toro.

Hey, toro. Toro!

No toros!

Toro. Toro. Toro!

Hey, toro!

Good, Ocho!

Thattaboy.

Stay with him!

Ol, Ocho!

Attaboy, Ocho.

You take him now!

Look, son, I want you to know

that I think of you as my son.

If you get us out of here, I'll make

you first mate of the Sun Princess.

And you and your little car

can stay in the Lanai suite...

...and eat at my table every night.

The big boat will take you

anywhere you want to go, okay?

Don't worry, capitn.

We got him now.

Toro. Over here, toro.

Come on, over here, toro!

Toro. Toro.

Attaboy, Ocho. Toro!

He's getting close, Ocho.

I'm gonna be sick!

They got voodoo down here.

You know that?

He's had enough.

Let's go.

Come on.

They want us to take a bow,

all of us.

Oh, wait. Come on.

Nothing in this world

will induce me to go out...

- They'll be disappointed.

- Don't pull on me.

Don't do that!

You too, capitn.

Take a bow.

What's wrong, Ocho?

Wait a minute!

- I told you.

- Let's get Shepard and the plane.

Oh, Captain. That boy's...

That boy's in trouble!

Help him. Help!

Can't we go any faster?

- Oh, we could. But we'd have to walk.

- The fact that we're moving at all

violates every principle of

the internal combustion engine.

Hey, wait a minute.

It's Aunt Louise!

And Captain Blythe?

Aunt Louise, are you all right?

Ecstatic! Well...

We just fought a bull

and brought it to a standstill.

- Looks like you lost, Captain.

- Reverse your course.

We can't, we have to find that boy.

There's some men after him.

What if he doubled back on us?

We'd have seen him.

There's only one road around here.

Just keep looking for that crazy car.

- He doesn't understand "bracket".

- All right, get some wire.

Wire.

Wire. Wire.

Wire?

Wire... wire.

Wire?

Sounds like... fire.

S. Fuego. S!

Okay, he's gonna get some.

All right.

Fuego.

Seor, no.

The Sun Princess. Tell the mate

I've been stranded in Timbio.

The Sun Princess.

It's a ship.

Sheep? Sheep?

- No, not a sheep. It's a ship.

- Bueno. Princesa sheep.

Not sheep. That's "baa-baa".

This is "toot-toot"!

What do you mean "no comprende"?

In San Augustin,

not far from here...

...they have monolithic statues that...

Well, they go back to 500 BC.

But nobody knows who made them

or where they came from.

I wish I could help you.

I'm sure you'd find

a cold six-pack much more exciting.

Oh, now have I hit on something

that you hold dear and sacred?

Look, I led you on.

I apologize.

Please don't. I'll just have an

electrocardiogram when I get home.

But I can assure you,

there's been no damage.

We're wasting

valuable time bickering.

Who knows what's happened

to that boy by now.

I'll just see

what's holding up the Captain.

Why are you all staring at me?

It's a conspiracy.

What?

- S, sesenta centavos.

- Si... what?

Siesta centavos.

Okay, don't go away.

I'll get it for you.

Siesta centavos.

Siesta centavos!

We're getting it.

I beg you, don't hang up.

I'll be right with you.

I love your country.

It's very colorful.

Your children

have such expressive faces.

Look alive

with that change, woman!

No, please. Don't go away!

I'll get it for you. I'll get it.

Are you still there?

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

She's gone!

It took me two hours just

to get the operator. And she's gone!

Just like that!

Hello?

De nada.

- How will I explain this to the company?

- You tell Aunt Louise all about it.

- They'll take away my command.

- Yes.

- They'll take away my sheep.

- Your sheep.

I think we lost them. One thing

I still can't figure out...

...why would those men

want a picture like this, Ocho?

It's kinda lonely around here,

huh, Ocho?

When we're safe from those men...

...we go back where there's

lots of people, huh?

We've got 'em. Why don't we go down

and force them off the road?

Because we just might come off

second best.

What's a Bug and a kid gonna do?

Something quite unexpected,

I assure you.

We'll wait till it stops.

- Will it make Chiclayo?

- Not a prayer.

- How long do you give it?

- About a minute.

Maybe we should alert the Captain.

He'd want to know.

He'll be alerted...

any second now.

Sound general quarters.

- Captain.

- Then it's every man for himself!

Have you put out distress signals?

Oh, we will.

Five of them.

Maybe we can go to Santiago

and work there, Ocho.

Those men will

never find us there.

Don't worry, Ocho,

I'll take care of you.

S!

Wake up, Ocho, we gotta go to work.

A man in the cantina needs a taxi.

We can siesta later.

Someone want a taxi?

Just the driver.

Let me go. Let me go.

Let me go!

Let me go!

No.

Let me go!

Ocho!

Ocho!

Let me go.

Let me go. Help!

Ocho!

Bye-bye.

How's it going?

I'm telling them not to hold the ship

at Port of Spain...

...but go directly to Tobago

where I'll join them there.

I hate to think what's happened

to that ship in my absence.

Get this to the communications

centre of the Sun Princess.

Are you certain

that the pigeon understands?

S, seor capitn.

He certainly knows his pigeons.

There's an airport in Chiclayo

12 miles further on.

But there's no transportation

from here to Chiclayo.

It's the same car.

I was so worried. Thank heavens!

It's the same car,

but where's the boy?

- He wants to tell us something.

- It's a car, woman, not Lassie!

Where's Paco?

Something terrible's happened

to him. Everybody, get in.

I am not getting into

that sardine can again!

It's a 12-mile walk to Chaclayo,

so make up your mind.

And hurry.

Get in here!

Hold on!

What about that down there?

Yeah, that could be it.

Gentlemen,

we're right on the money.

Together, now. Pull!

- What do you think?

- Gold. Probably pure gold!

More than that, it has tremendous

archaeological value.

- Do you think there's more?

- Plenty!

What do we do with it?

I say we get this out of here now...

...then come back with tools

and do it up right. Okay?

You got it.

- Wait. What about me?

- Get out of here!

I don't like leaving that kid

back there.

Don't worry about him.

He's not going anywhere.

- Does anyone know where we are?
