Get me close.

I'm trying.

Left, left. I said, left!

You said right.

I said, left! A little left! A little left!

Where am I?

Turn right! Right! Right!

Cows! Cows! Cows!

We're in a warehouse,

and you've just hit a cow.

I think you better back up.

Good, good, good.

And stop! Stop!

Go slowly to your left

and try to stay off the sidewalk.

Turn right. Turn right.

I just ripped my good pants.

I can take the wheel now.

Slide over me.

Slide over me.

Wally, I can't... Wally!

Wally!

I can't see. I can't see.

Wally, I can't see.

I can't see either.

Wally, I can't drive

if you don't push the seat back.

I'm stuck.

Push the seat back. Find the lever and push the seat back.

I've got it!

Aah!

What happened?

We had a very close call.

Thank you.

Wally, I can't see.

Move your hands. I can't see.

Okay.

I'll get that son of a b*tch now!

Is there somebody

shooting at us?

I didn't hear anything.

Wally! Left!

My nuts!

Left!

You're mashing my nuts! Ah!

Brakes! Wally, put on the brakes!

Where are we?

I think we're floating

towards New Jersey.

No sh*t. I got relatives in Jersey.

How nice for you.

You could read her lips, right?

Yes, I could.

What did she say?

She said,

"I'll give it to you tomorrow.

We'll go to Grace George in the

morning and wait for your call."

Then she said,

"We have to leave the country tomorrow."

Okay.

We have to find this Grace George

and wait for them to show up.

Are you with me?

Am I with you? Of course.

You've earned my trust, Wally.

You're always

watching out for me.

And you never get me

into trouble.

Sometimes life is

a little boring with you,

but that's a small price to pay

for such a wonderful friendship.

That's a sweet thing you just said.

Do you mean everything

you just said?

I'll tell you exactly how I feel

in just a minute or two.

Right now

I'm a little overwhelmed...

by the stink of the

7000 tons of garbage

that you drove me into!

Is that what it is?

I thought you let one go.

That's why I didn't

say nothing.

That was kind of you.

Thank you.

DISPATCHER:

2286, this is Dispatch. What is your location?

2286, please respond. Over.

Can you please hurry?

We have to bury the car.

Oy! Ah!

Je... Jesus!

Be careful, will you?

Take it easy. Take it easy.

I'm doing damn good for a blind man.

What'd you say?

I said, I'm doing damn good for a...

You know what,

I'm getting tired of this deaf sh*t.

You can't hear anything I say,

even if I scream in your ear?

I don't know. I've never tried it.

Really?

No. It seems crazy, after all these years,

but I've never done that before.

I would like you to.

Go ahead, Wally.

I want you to.

Let's give it a try.

Dave?

I want you to listen to me.

I'm going to try.

Open up them pores, okay?

Be responsive to

what I'm going to say.

I want you to hear me. Okay?!

Shazam!

Can you hear me?!

Oh!

What?!

Wally!

What?

Jesus! I heard something!

Yes!

I heard your voice!

You heard me?

Wally, I heard your voice!

You can hear me, Dave!

What?

You can hear me!

No, schmuck! I'm deaf!

Now do you get it?!

- I'm not a crybaby.

- Hmph! You are a crybaby.

Well, guess what you are.

A blind, egotistical a**hole

who denies he can't see sh*t.

Denies? You're the one

who denies! This is you, right?

"I'm not deaf. I can read lips.

Don't call me a deaf person."

Well, f*** it. I'm blind!

You hear me?

Because some a**hole

drunk-drived me into a fire hydrant

and I'm blind for life.

He gets six months'

suspended sentence.

But f*** it. I'm not gonna

worry about him. F*** him.

You swear a lot.

You're f***ing-A right!

F***ing-A! Something bothers you, f*** it.

Your wife leaves you, f*** her.

Boss fires you, f*** him.

Hey, f*** it. F*** them. F*** it, right?

You're f***ing right!

That's right.

You know that it's a blessing to be able to do that?

You're a lucky guy. I can't do it.

Well, f***ing change!

F***.

Easy for you to say.

It's not easy for me to say.

I'm blind.

You're blind. But when you walk down the street,

people want to touch you.

When you're deaf, they don't wanna.

They might catch something.

Like you're some kind of leper.

We're being bitter, aren't we?

I accept what I can do

and what I can't do.

I don't think running around

catching vicious, scum killers

is something you and I are the best-equipped people

in the world at doing.

Bullshit! You're an actor.

If you don't tell anyone you're deaf

or I'm blind, we can do anything.

I guarantee it.

You guarantee it?

Right. And if you won't help me, I'll do it f***ing alone,

because I don't need you

or anyone else!

Well, okay.

Well, now I get the point.

Excusez-moi, Monsieur Hot-Sh*t.

I'll just go have a nice hot bath

and a cocktail before dinner.

Wait, Dave.

We ought to cool out a little bit.

Have a nice day.

Just keep our heads.

I figure me and you,

we know a lot. Dave! Ah!

Goddamn it! Dave! Dave!

How in the f*** do you expect me to get out of this sh*t?!

Dave!

Sh*t's cold! Come back!

We have to bury the car!

There are steps coming up.

Three steps. And, one.

Oh, no.

Back, back. Back, Wally.

And turn. And one, two, three.

And turn. Very good.

That's lovely. And go. And we go.

Yes, sir, our losers will get...

Hello?

Collect call from Earvin Johnson.

Will you accept the charges?

Yes, operator.

Hi, guess who.

Just tell me you're all right.

I'm great.

I wish you were here with your car.

You could bring lots of money,

a couple of beers if possible, probably cold.

I need a racing form and binoculars.

Where are you?

A little motel on the interstate,

about five miles west

of the George Washington.

Headquarters, this is Steely. Over.

She's going into Room 18.

Now. Now.

That's a hell of a place to park.

She's checked into Room 18.

Where?

Over here. Right here.

Let me have that.

This is the police.

You are surrounded.

All right, jokers, you got 10 seconds

to come out with your hands up.

Ten,

nine,

eight,

seven...

six...

- She said she was 18.

- Five...

four, three...

The county is really cracking down.

Two,

one.

All right, let's go!

Ah.

Goddamn them. Goddamn them.

Take it easy, we'll find them.

Search the entire area.

They gotta be around here someplace.

For chrissakes, how far could

they get? An all-cars alert!

Sergeant Keller, I need every man you can spare

to surround the area

and comb the hills.

Damn those guys.

I'll get them.

I'm gonna get them.

We gotta cover every road.

Your men have to be aware that this

is a number-one-priority manhunt.

Dave, meet my sister, Adele.

Adele, this is my dear friend, David.

How do you do?

How do you do?

There she is. Careful, your knees.

First thing we do is find a phone book.

Look up this lady, "Grace George."

Then we get the coin,

they come look for us and we wait with the police.

There can't be many Grace Georges.

You mean the resort?

No, the person they're

giving the coin to.

Great Gorge is a big resort

in Vernon Valley.
