Need for Speed Page #6

Synopsis: Framed by an ex-partner for a murder he did not commit, Tobey Marshall, a financially struggling custom-car builder and street-racer, spends two years in jail thinking about one moment. Fresh out of prison he reacquires the fastest car his workshop ever built and sold, and seeks to enter a secretive and extremely high-stakes race known as The DeLeon. His purpose; redemption, recognition from the world of racing and to solve his problems. Yet all this fades in comparison to his driving reason. Revenge. Above all, revenge. This is a story about love, redemption, revenge and motor oil all swirled together

Yeah. I can't talk. I know.

Excuse me, miss.

Can I ask you a few questions?

JULIA:
(IN SOUTHERN ACCENT)

Why, of course you can,

Officer Lejeune.

How can I help you?

Do you live in the area?

No, sir. We're actually just long hauling.

Mmm. Where from?

Uh, from south to north.

So we actually started in Louisiana.

So you are not traveling in

that silver Mustang out front?

Mustang?

(LAUGHS) What, like the horse?

No, sir. No.

I'd like to ask you a few more questions.

If you'd step out to my cruiser,

shouldn't take but a minute.

Stop!

Stop right there!

(PANTING)

Tobey? He's following me.

TOBEY:
I know. Where are you?

I'm upstairs. I'm in a room.

All right, is there a window?

It's on the second floor.

(POUNDING ON DOOR)

LEJEUNE:
Open up this door!

Look, just climb out

the window. I'll come get you.

Okay.

(POUNDING CONTINUES)

I'm gonna tell you one more time,

open up this door!

Any units in the area? Over.

Ma'am, other units are on their way.

Where are you?

(CAR ENGINE REWING)

(SIGHS)

Hey, you gotta jump. Let's go.

No, I can't jump. I'm afraid of heights.

It's not high. Come on.

No, I can't. I'm afraid of heights.

- I don't know what to do!

- Just trust me. Sit down.

Okay? Sit down.

Just close your eyes and count to three.

All right? On three.

One, two... Oh!

(GRUNTS)

FEMALE DISPATCH ON RADIO: Unit 445,

there are no other units

available at this time.

Copy that. In pursuit

of the silver Mustang.

(SIREN WAILING)

(DOG BARKING)

Where is he?

Oh, he's not coming.

Are you sure?

(CHUCKLES) Trust me.

Hey, you know...

That was really impressive back there.

I just thought you should know.

Hey, um, do you think

you could drive for a few hours?

Let's just... Let's switch.

It's all right.

(CHUCKLES) Okay, steady.

There you go.

All right, don't kill us.

(LAUGHS)

That's nice.

Have you got her?

- Yeah.

- All right.

Good.

(LAUGHING)

Good, good, good.

Jesus!

That was on purpose.

Yeah, thanks to Dino's bounty.

They're coming at you.

HUMMER DRIVER:
Copy that.

Oh, wait, wait. See?

They're trying to trap us.

Here, just drift onto the shoulder.

No, no, no, I'm going for the Hummer.

He's a pavement prowler.

Pavement what?

It's a show car with a big lift kit.

It makes up for his inferiority complex.

(STAMMERS) Wait. Are you crazy?

Wait, wait! Whoa, whoa!

Whoa! Jesus!

You are crazy!

(TOBEY LAUGHS)

Nice. Nice, nice.

(BOTH EXCLAIM)

No, keep it straight!

(SCREAMS) Holy sh*t.

Okay, Larry, bring it.

LARRY:
Got it. We're moving out.

Shoot the tires, but don't kill them.

All right. Now, when I say,

you're gonna let up on the gas

and you're gonna make a hard left.

- Okay?

- Okay.

- Okay!

- Okay.

Your instincts are gonna say...

Just do it!

Now!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Don't let up.

Blast those buggers.

We'll get them on the split.

Hey, Liar One, you got your ears on?

(EXCLAIMS)

(SCREAMS) Son of a b*tch!

We need to find another road.

Liar One, we need you!

You gotta go faster.

No, two hands on the wheel!

Oh, Sh*t!

Liar One, is that you?

Hook up, hook up!

Sergeant Jackson,

this is not what we discussed.

Sir, will you relax? Okay?

I got this.

(GRUNTING)

We're good!

You gotta tell me you believe I can

fly an Apache helicopter, man.

- What?

- I'm serious, Bro.

You're always trying to play me.

Tell me you believe I can fly

an Apache helicopter.

Tell him whatever he wants!

Yeah, you can fly an Apache helicopter!

And my handle is Maverick.

Gotta call me Maverick, let me hear it.

TOBEY:
Maverick! Maverick!

Maverick!

(LAUGHS) Was that so bad?

Oh, Sh*t!

Benny!

Holy sh*t!

(SHRIEKING)

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

- Julia, hey!

Look at me.

Just breathe. Breathe.

Good.

Look into my eyes.

Look into my eyes. Good.

What color are they?

They're really blue.

They're really blue. Good, good.

They're a lot bluer than yours.

- No!

- Yes, they are.

- They're not!

- Yes!

They're not bluer!

- Admit it!

- Mine are bluer!

- Oh!

- Oh, God!

- Oh, wow.

Benny! Don't drop us!

What?

I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

I'm kidding. We're good, we're good.

(JULIA LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

(TOBEY WHOOPING)

What the hell is that?

(TOBEY YELLING)

Yeah!

Whoo!

TOBEY:
Yeah!

JOE:
Yeah, Tobey!

Hey, Benny!

We believe you, baby!

We believe you, Maverick!

JULIA:
Look at me, b*tches!

TOBEY:
We're good!

JULIA:
Whoo!

Yeah!

Go!

Are you guys okay?

Yeah.

ARMY OFFICER:
Major Davis,

you are in violation of your flight plan.

My bad.

Return that bird to base immediately.

Looks like I'm gonna have

to go away for a while, y'all.

But Benny always comes back.

Godspeed, boys. Godspeed.

You're 23 minutes late.

- Are you checking in, sir?

- I'll be right back.

I'm surprised you made it.

I'm impressed.

What's going on in

that head of yours, Tobey?

You never went back for him.

I wasn't there,

remember?

I was there to comfort

Anita at the funeral.

Such a sweet, innocent girl.

(GRUNTS)

Do you wanna do this here?

Hmm?

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

Because one of us is on parole.

But you know that, right?

We'll settle this behind the wheel.

I'm not worried about you

behind the wheel.

Really?

Why did you put a bounty on me?

Tomorrow is gonna be fun.

Yeah.

When you're hanging

upside down tomorrow,

I'm not coming back for you.

Watch yourself, Tobey.

See you tomorrow.

(CHIMING)

You ran into him, didn't you?

You need to forget about it.

You need to let it go.

I think you need to get out of the car.

And you need a hot shower,

and you need a good meal,

and some rest, and some food.

And I'm going to book you a hotel room.

No, I think it's best if you

just stay with me tonight.

(STAMMERS) You know, it's just safer...

If you stay with me.

Right? Yeah.

(CHUCKLES)

(ENGINE STARTS)

(LAUGHS)

Look at you. Okay.

Whoa!

(HORN HONKING)

TOBEY:
Beast,

(SIGHS) we've been hit.

All right, we're on our way.

We're on our way.

- Track them.

- I'm on it.

Where is he?

He's up on California

and Mason. Make a left.

(GRUNTS)

Are you okay?

Go. Before the cops get here, go.

(PANTING)

God!

(GRUNTS)

I got you. I got you.

Holy sh*t.

Wait! We need your help.

- I will.

- Take care of her.

I just did.

I know that Dino was there
