Little Savages Page #3

It's the green one behind you.

It's so fast.

Yeah, it's nice.

How fast is it, Harley?

It's like a cheetah

on a treadmill. Just...

Oh, I totally know.

Well, let me incline real quick.

You know?

It's like that, bro.

It's like that, bro.

That makes no sense.

What was that'?

He said something.

Are you challenging me, bro'?

Because I see you

in your competition

coming in third, fourth.

I had a messed up ankle, but I could

take you any day of the week.

Oh-ho! Did you hear that?

Any day of the week.

Okay, we can

go out there right now.

Yeah? Yeah.

Yeah? Go ahead.

I can't. I'm working.

You can't because

you know you'd lose.

That's a crow.

It's a chicken-crow, bro.

Billy, anytime after hours.

Yeah, well, after you

tune up my Wave Runner.

Yeah.

I was going to get the yellow.

You were going to get it yellow?

Yeah, yellow.

I like green, Billy. Yeah.

You always make good decisions.

I'll be here about 30 minutes

so why don't you go outside and play'?

Do you even know

what "go play" means?

It means get out of here.

Go be a kid.

Go.

Here it is.

Oh, okay.

It fell off.

Shazam.

Yes!

Oh.

No, I didn't like it.

Okay.

You know, but I mean,

you put in some effort.

So. Well, there's that.

Extra point. That's something.

Trespasser! Let's get him!

Hey, hey, hey. It's okay.

I know him.

Let him prove himself.

So you do any tricks'?

I don't have a bike

like you guys.

He doesn't have a bike.

Eddie, get him

Old Man Kettle's bike.

Oh.

Not sure if he could handle.

Old Man Kettle's bike.

Wait, is this the kid that cried

when he got tossed in the lake?

That's him.

Oh, where are my manners?

Albie, this is Winnie

and Vinny. Hi.

They're my cousins.

Who was Old Man Kettle'?

He's Culver's only homeless person.

Yeah.

He ditched his bike

on the side of the road

before he disappeared.

Guess who found the bike.

Him?

Mm-mm.

I did.

She did. He did.

We did.

Sometimes I see her thoughts.

Yeah, and sometimes it's creepy.

Old Man Kettle

didn't have any teeth.

Legend has it he lost them

riding his bike.

She's a tough ride.

Why don't you go get it for him'?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

I've always wondered why he keeps

wearing that top hat and cape.

He goes through phases.

Yeah, last month, he thought he was

a professional baseball player.

Now he thinks he's a magician.

And next month, he's probably going

to think he's a sumo wrestler.

Well, if you're up for a race,

I'm sure Old Man Kettle

wouldn't mind

you borrowing his bike.

And I was a professional

baseball player.

Um, I don't think

I'm going to ride that.

If you want to hang

with the Savages,

you kind of have to race us.

Are you here to bike

or be a sissy?

No.

Hey, you allergic

to bikes, too'?

There you go.

Come on, race Winnie.

She's a girl.

Hey. That's debatable.

Yeah. All right, I'll do it.

That a boy.

All right, so...

down the hill,

through the dirt track,

and hang a left

at the graveyard.

First person back wins.

I got this.

Did he say graveyard?

Dead people live there.

Woo... Ready...

set... go!

Let's go.

I bet 20 bucks on Winnie.

He's like an expert on that.

Ah!

Oh!

My'

You okay?

Old Man Kettle's bike is a hog.

You were flying.

Did that hurt'?

It was amazing.

Albie is a champ.

I want a rematch.

You could have won.

I know.

Welcome to the Savages.

You okay'? I'm good.

All righty, so we changed

the oil on the pontoon.

Okay. And we did a routine

maintenance check.

And it turns out it had bad gas.

Oh, poor Grandma.

That happens when you get older.

Ba-dam-bam! Hmm?

Hey, how much do I owe you'?

I already fixed you.

You're good to go.

No extra charge? No,

consider it on the house.

Todd, you're the best.

Thank you.

Of course. Hello.

Hey, Todd. Winnie fell

off her bike.

Oh, Oh. I didn't fall. I flew.

All right, thank you.

Here, let me help you with that.

Here, let's see it.

Are you a nurse?

No, no.

I'm more of a comedian.

Oh. OW.

You know what'?

That looks bad. I don't think

this is going to do the trick.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't you all

come back to my house,

and I can clean up your knee

and I can feed you all dinner.

Truth is, I make a mean lasagna.

Score!

I love people who feed me.

Thank you.

Hey. Good morning.

Could you tell Billy

to come in for appetizers?

Where is he'?

Outback.

Aw, geez.

Billy!

What are you doing?

What is that, yoga'?

Dinner! Let's go!

Oh, here I come, Dad.

I'll be right there.

Dinner already?

I've only done

five turnarounds, Dad.

What's the kid doing?

He's out there like this.

He looks like... who rides

a jet ski on their back'?

It's summer.

It's what they do.

Like a repulsive seal.

What are you doing?

It's cheese time, Mr. Fritz.

Oh, it is cheese time'?

It's cheese time. Can

you make a quesadilla'?

Yes. Okay, go do it.

So I met with the mayor today.

Did you'? Mm-hmm, and I'm finally

going to be able to prove

once and for all that that

root beer stand is mine.

Why'? Why can't we

just go back to Chicago?

Billy, use your dome, okay'?

The Whittmore treasure hunt

is about to begin any day now.

And I know that he hid

a clue in that root beer stand.

He did love that thing.

Who likes root beer'? You

drink root beer'? Yeah.

You do. Mm-hmm.

Who else drinks root beer'?

Every-everyone, really.

The community absolutely

loves it there, Fritz.

They love it.

Here's what

we're going to do, okay'?

Okay. You and your friends

are going to start

digging around there, okay'?

Okay.

Once the first clue is released.

We'll just make it look

like you found it.

Wait, so that means you

know where the treasure is'?

Do I know where

the treasure is'?

Yeah, do you know where it is'?

No. Where? It's buried.

Guess where it's buried. Where?

Deep in a seashell in the ocean.

And there's a big man

with a gray beard

named Neptune,

and he's holding it.

Isn't that exciting?

Billy, grow up.

You believe in unicorns'?

I don't know where it is!

What are you, five?

How much sun did you get today'?

Uh, I don't know.

You're wearing

lime green shorts.

When you wear lime shorts,

what do you look like?

What did I tell you'?

Sn-snowcone.

You look like a snow cone.

What are you doing? You want

to be a human snow cone?

Now, why do you

have to do that'?

I don't want to be a snow cone.

Kid looks like a snow cone.

Fritz. He wears lime green.

This is a nice house.

Kind of old.

I think it was built

in the 1800s.

Yikes. What'?

You didn't tell me you had

an older sister. Oh, sorry.

It's just... Look.

Hey, can I help?

Uh, I'm good.

See what I mean'?

Hormones.

Is that a kind of food?

'Cause I'll eat it.

Okay, here we go.

Now, where does spaghetti

go to dance'?

At the meatball.

Oh, I know, I know.

It's just torturelini.

Oh, my ride is here. Bye.

I thought you were going

to have dinner with us.

Uh, mmm, delicious.

Thanks for dinner.

Teenagers.

Okay, who's going

to say the blessing?

I Will!

You're on.
