Knightriders Page #4

Oh, no. I do believe we've found

a cache of elusive sponduics.

The unholy weed.

- It's a plant, Billy.

- I know it, man.

All right, let's go.

As you may remember from

our, er... earlier conversations,

I am a reasonable man.

I'm sure we can reach a... er, informal

bail arrangement for your boy here.

You again! I told you to pay

this guy off the last time.

Now I bet your price just went up, huh?

And I said we're not paying.

And we're not paying this rat-pile

heap of dog sh*t a goddamn cent.

You wanna take him in? Take me in, too.

Oh, that's real sweet.

We'll all go together.

Merl, go get Steve.

We ain't paying off on no frame.

Bagman ain't going to no jail alone.

We got a show

to do in three days!

- We do have to get there.

- Maybe we can't make it.

Oh, yeah, sure, sure. We haven't

got enough problems as it is.

I do think you boys ought to reconsider.

Small town jails is,

er... uncomfortable places.

Damn uncomfortable.

All them lead pipes and stuff.

Bagman ain't going to no jail alone.

Anything happens in that jail,

there's gonna be a witness.

The rest of you stay here

until we get out.

Now are you going

to arrest me, fat man,

or do I have to do something

to provoke you?

All right, Jack, you got it.

Aw, Christ.

Let's go.

That man's hurt. Better not be worser

when I see him again.

Neither one of 'em. You hear me?

Oh, that's right, you're a doctor.

Damn lucky thing you're around, doc.

Hit it.

Wait here.

This is crazy!

Let's go after them, pay them,

and then get the hell out of here!

We're not paying!

That's the way Billy wants it!

Billy's insane!

It's done, Morgan!

There's nothing we can do about it.

Oh, that's great.

So, what, we save 500 bucks here and

we lose 2,000 for blowing a show?

That's good.

We're not gonna lose anything.

We're going to Lawrence.

Angie, you go ahead now

with Tuck and Pip.

When you get to a phone,

try all the motels in Lawrence

and see if you can find Steve.

If you can't raise him by phone, as

soon as you get to town, try to find him.

The rest of us, we got some packing

to do. We're moving out.

I need somebody

to drive Bagman's truck.

I want to be on the road in an hour.

Let's get organised.

We got to load up all the bikes.

Who's gonna drive what.

Bobbie, come help me with the tents.

We're gonna strike them right now.

- All right.

- Let's go.

I'll drive the truck.

You better stay,

see what you can do.

I got some ideas.

No! No!

No!

- You wanted a witness? Huh?

- What about me? Me!

You wanted a witness?

Around here, they don't count for much!

All you gotta do is tell me to send out

for your boys with the money!

That's what you gotta do!

Don't hit him no more.

OK?

- Bagman.

- What?

- You OK, man?

- I'm all right.

Sheriff's up in Loyal Gorge,

fishing, Julie.

Oh, Lord.

What's the problem?

Oh, I could call over at the jail.

Jess or somebody'd be over there.

No. No, that's OK.

We'll just forget about it.

- Er.. how far is this Loyal...

- Loyal Gorge. 60 miles. 80 maybe.

What's the problem?

You in some kind of trouble, Julie?

No, I'm not in any kind of trouble.

Er... we just needed to see

the sheriff, that's all.

- Sorry to bother you.

- Yeah.

Julie Dean! You don't just come

around banging on poeple's doors

at four o'clock in the morning!

What the hell you doing up

at four o'clock in the morning anyway?

Sorry, sorry.

Oh, you kids is always up to something.

Good night.

No damn good. I knowed you

since was a tadpole.

- Take your bike. You got gas, man?

- Yeah, I think I got enough.

- There's some all-nighters on I-79.

- See you all later.

Since when you messing around

motorcycles, Julie Dean?

You could die on them things!

Them things is damnable. Damnable!

Look, even if you're pissed off at me,

would you please talk to me?

I gotta keep awake.

I'm not pissed off.

I don't know what I am.

I don't know what I am, remember?

As you helped me realise back there

in front of everybody.

What about you? You're not

on such solid grounds, you know.

Morgan dumps on you all the time. He

cheats on you every chance he gets.

He's probably back there

with somebody right now.

God! I asked you to talk to me!

I don't want to hear this sh*t!

God damn it! You can say anything.

You can say anything you want to.

But nobody can say

anything back to you!

That was just being mean, Pip, and

you know it. I was not being mean!

Jesus.

Sometimes you don't know

where your life's going.

Sometimes I feel like

I don't fit in anywhere.

God damn it, Ange,

I do think you're screwed up.

You hang around that jerk Morgan

just because you think

nobody else wants to schtoop

a woman with grease on her face.

But you don't even wipe the grease off.

- Schtoop?

- Schtoop.

It's a perfectly good word.

I think you know what it means.

Well, if I wipe the grease off,

will you schtoop me, my dear?

No, I wouldn't.

I'd rather boff boys.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

OK.

Steve! My God, that's Steve!

Steve! Where the hell have you been?

We've called every motel in Lawrence.

I couldn't sleep. I thought I'd ride on

and meet y'all in Bakersfield.

All right, what the hell's wrong?

Nothing's wrong! Billy's in jail!

He's got a broken neck!

But nothing's wrong, Steve!

Y'all are a wacky bunch, all right!

That's our lawyer, right?

God, are we in trouble.

You simple-minded

pea-brain lump of cow paddy!

I get to go up to Loyal Gorge

once or twice a season,

and you, you dim-witted numb...

You better be looking out for me, man.

Keep one eye on the door,

wherever you are, cos some day

I'm gonna ride in there

and I'm gonna wipe you out.

- Let's go, let's go. Come on, Billy.

- You understand?

- Come on, Billy!

- I'm gonna wipe you out!

- You fat...

- Come on!

All right, all right.

- Come on, Billy!

- I'm gonna wipe you out, man!

Hey, come on!

- '5-42.'

- 'Go ahead. '

That's cos of me, isn't it?

- Where you going?

- Lawrence!

- What about the others?

- They went on ahead last night.

Lin took 'em on ahead to Lawrence.

I told her to wait. I told her, I told

everybody to wait till I got back.

I told 'em to set up camp

and wait till I got back.

Nobody goes anywhere in this outfit

without my permission.

That's it! That's enough!

I ain't gonna listen to this, man,

not after last night.

You wanted the Bakersfield jail,

you got it, baby.

Hi. I'm Sheila Farrow,

WCAP in Washington DC,

and this is Judy Rawls.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- And this is Joseph...

- Bontempi.

Joe Bontempi.

It means good time in Italian.

I'm not with Sheila here.

Tried to be, but couldn't score.

I got other business.

You know about it?

Well, I talked to Steve Lock about it.

Silver Bullet Enterprises.

Entertainment company out of DC.

We book Vegas mostly, but we send

our poeple all over the country.

Now, we're all together

on the insurance, right?

- Yeah, man stopped by yesterday.

- Steve?

- Yeah, hell of a nice feller.

- Yeah, he's great.
