Ladies and gentlemen...
the first running
of the Trans France Race...
is about to begin.
[ Engines Rewing ]
[ Rewing Continues ]
[ Engines Roaring ]
[ Announcer
Speaking French ]
What's that?
[Jim ]
It's an armored truck.
- That armored truck is us.!
- Excuse me. Excuse me.
- Yes. Yes.
Where's Herbie?
Are you crazy?
We're supposed to be in a race, and here
you are guarding the Bank of England...
or the crown jewels
or who knows what!
We didn't travel 6,000 miles just to see some
French pastry dressed up like a tin soldier.
I'll tell you something. I've had it
with the French- the men, women and the-
Herbie?
- Are we still in it?
- You'll be starting and finishing in last place.
Quickly, you've no time to lose.
You have things to attend to.
- Gas! Let's move it, Wheely!
- Check! Top of my list!
Fill it up!
Monsieur Douglas, stop!
What do you mean, stop?
The tank is full.
I filled it this morning.
Let's go, Wheely.
[ Herbie Starts ]
Come on, Herbie. What're you doing?
The race is back there.
I know what he's doing. He can't
fool me. He's looking for that Lancia.
Inspector.
Well, what I was going
to say, sir-
Suppose there was a connection between
the men who attacked the little car...
- and the men who stole the diamond.
- Not now, Fontenoy!
But, sir, what if they've
hidden the stolen diamond in the car?
- What?
- If I may suggest, sir...
- we should have our men search that car immediately.
- Search?
Yes!
- There is no time! Yes?
- The car is still here.
Yes, but it is
obviously...
tuning up, or something.
Just say the word,
and the men and I...
will search that car
from bumper to bumper.
The word is no, Fontenoy!
N- No?
What you don't seem
to understand is that, um...
a thorough search
would take over an hour.
And an hour's delay would deprive
Douglas of winning a race...
he has traveled
halfway around the globe to enter.
Sir, I admire you
for your consideration.
[ Chuckles ] And I understand now
exactly how you are thinking.
Sorry, sir.
Forget the Lancia, Herbie.
She's gone.
You heard him right.
Gone, split!
Yeah, that's right.
She took off in that race
like you never existed.
She wanted me to tell you,
it was fun while it lasted...
but when push came to shove,
she shoved off.
That's just the way
women are.
Might as well face it.
You've been deserted,
jilted. Abandoned!
[ Herbie Rewing ]
[ Tires Screeching ]
Too late now. We'll get it in
Monte Carlo after the race.
Inspector, I think
you will be proud of me.
What now, Fontenoy?
I have done exactly what I knew
you would have wanted me to:
notified Monte Carlo.
- Their police will search the car as soon as it arrives.
- [ Screams ]
- [ Chuckling ]
- [ High-Pitched Gasp ]
- [ Gasping ]
- I'll take care of the truck, sir.
- Whoa!
- [ Screaming ]
Uh... [ Clears Throat ]
catch anything?
[ Clears Throat ]
I didn't think so.
- Right.
Left!
[ Chokes, Coughing ]
[ Coughing ]
[ Both Grunt ]
[ Tires Screeching ]
[ Tires Screeching,
Engine Revving ]
Hope they get that trophy to Monte Carlo
on a fast jet. We may beat 'em to it.
Unfortunately, somebody
put the Alps in our way.
The way Herbie's flyin', nothing can
stop him, including the Himalayas.
[ Chuckling ]
Some road. It's not even on the map.
Maybe you oughta ask directions.
- From who, a French mountain goat?
- There must be somebody.
[ Shouts ]
[ Whispering ]
Wheely, you-
- Maybe I'll just call from in here.
- Yeah.
[ Yodeling ]
[ Yodel Echoing ]
- Hey, there's somebody out there.
- [ Echo Continues ]
[ Echo Continues ]
No, that's just me!
I never heard a real echo before.
[ Yodeling ]
- Will you sit down, Wheely?
- [ Echo ]
Just one more, okay?
[ Yodeling ]
[ Yodeling ]
[ Echo ]
- Come on, Wheely.!
- [ Echo Continues ]
- [ Rumbling ]
- [ Echo Continues ]
Uh, I got somebody.
Those are the guys
who were after Herbie.
Get out of the car.
[ Herbie Starting ]
I'm taking over.
I'll drive the car!
[ Herbie Rewing ]
[ Honks Yodel ]
If it worked once,
maybe it'll work again.
- [ Yodeling ]
- [ Honking Continues ]
[ Yodeling, Honking
Continue ]
[ Yodel Echoing ]
Hey, buddy, I like
your "yodel-ay-hee-oo"!
[ Tires Squeal ]
Well, we're back
on the beam.
- How many cars you figure are ahead of us?
- Would you believe all of'em?
- [ Knocking Sounds ]
- Is that a knocking I hear in the gas tank?
Not in my gas tank.
Never!
- [ Knocking ]
- Sounds like something clunking around in there.
Well, we either listen
to the driver...
and stop to take
the gas tank apart...
or we listen to the mechanic
and try to win this race.
Well, I'm listening to the mechanic.
Let's go, Herbie!
[ Herbie Honks, Revs ]
[ Herbie Sputtering,
Backfiring ]
- What's wrong?
- I don't know.
- The oil pressure's up, there's plenty of gas.
- But he's not getting it.
[ Sputtering ]
[ Sputtering ]
I hate to
mention this again...
- but I heard some clunking- - You
mean that nonsense about the gas tank?
- Yeah, that's- - All right, let's
get it straight, once and for all...
who the mechanic is
around here, okay?
You say it's the gas tank,
and I say it isn't the gas tank.
You see?
It isn't the gas tank.
It's this... rock
that was in the gas tank.
- [ Clears Throat ]
- Hold it!
- There's only one kind of rock that glistens like that.
- Well, sure, quartz.
You can find millions of'em
around any quarry in Philly.
But... not one
that's worth...
six million bucks.
- Huh?
- L 'etoile dejoie.
The tall, the what?
Etoile dejoie.
[ Gasps ]
Oh, wow!
That's-
[ Gasps ]
That's the biggest hunk
of diamond I've ever seen in my life.
What I don't understand is how it-
The black sedan!
- Huh? Where?
- No, no, no.
They're the ones that robbed
the museum. Don't you see?
They weren't trying to knock us out of
the race. They were trying to get this.
Thank you for helping us,
gentlemen, and up with your hands.
You gave us the slip
for the last time.
- We'll take the rock.
- [ Clearing Throat ]
I don't suppose you'd believe
that was just a big hunk of quartz.
[ Chuckles ] The rock.
Let me have it.
[ Revving,
Sputtering ]
[ Shouting ]
Aah!
Aah!
[ Grunting ]
[ Grunting ]
[ Shouting ]
Ha-ha-ha!
The rock.
Well, come on, hand it over.
[ Grunting ]
[ Man's Pocket Watch
Alarm Sounds ]
[ Groaning ]
Oh! Oh!
[ Both Groaning ]
Ooh! Ooh!
[ Grunting ]
[ Panting ] Well, what do we do
with them now?
[ Herbie Honking ]
Thanks, Herbie.
We tie 'em up!
[ Panting ]
Double X, we lost them.
First time we've ever
been done in by a car.
[ Panting ] The goods will be in
Monte Carlo in a couple of hours.
[ Panting ]
No chance of stopping them.
[ Panting ] See, we- we're rather
tied up at the moment.
[ Intercom Buzzing ]
Get me the airport.
- We passed every car on the road.
- All except the Lancia.
Well, after the way
she jilted Herbie...
