Ow!

You all right, Frank?

It's gonna be

one hell of a blister.

Well, how does it look?

Not good.

Engine's cooked.

You making the call?

Yes.

But it would help if I

could get some reception.

Sh*t.

You remember what that station attendant

called this stretch of road here?

He called it

Devil's Pass, Frank. Why?

Whoo!

I'm having the best time.

Leslie, pace yourself.

We're just starting out.

I know. We're just starting

and already I feel so great.

Come on.

Here, have it.

No.

Do you want to drive?

Never mind.

Em, slow down, slow down.

Why? What?

Oh, he's so cute.

Can we pick him up?

No!

We are not picking anybody up.

Whoo!

Leslie, don't!

This road is, like,

it's a magnet for serial killers.

You know that?

Oh, my God.

Really?

No, I just made it up,

but what would you

have done if he was?

Slit his throat first.

Jesus, Leslie. Did I just

hear you right?

I need a beer.

Oh, come on.

Don't... don't do that!

Oh!

Hey, chill out.

No need for the drama.

There is no drama.

I am driving.

You want to die? No.

I don't want to die.

No, neither do I. My life is

extremely valuable to me.

And I...

Are you even listening?

Of course I am.

Hey, Jim.

Yeah, it's Leslie.

Yeah, Emily's driving.

Um... I don't...

Hold on. I'll ask.

What was the excuse

you gave, again?

That I was visiting my sister

in Sacramento for a few days.

What else?

Did you get that?

I know.

I cannot believe

she's going through

with this either.

It's like we have

the old Emily back.

Uh, we've got like two bags of weed,

some tequila, some rum,

some gin and two cases of beer?

Yeah, the way you're going,

we're almost out of beer.

Well, see you guys

in a couple of hours.

And will you say

"hey" to Dick for me?

Rick, Dick, whatever. Just tell him

we look forward to seeing him.

Jim? Helloo.

Hello? Hello?

Lost our reception.

Oh! I just want to

get there already!

Who's Dick?

Who's Dick?

Just the guy you're gonna f***.

Excuse me?

Listen, I know that there's

this little complication...

No, Randy is

no complication. OK?

He's my boyfriend.

I feel real shitty about

lying to him about this trip.

What if he finds out?

Who cares?

Payback's a b*tch.

No, there's not

gonna be any payback, Leslie.

I still care for him.

And I'm not just gonna

f*** some stranger

to satisfy my own insecurities.

Why not?

He did.

I guess that's why you're

still wearing the bracelet.

You're so damn trusting, Em.

Because my gut's telling me that

this guy does not deserve you.

You really believe that?

You know what?

Things'll change.

I just...

I have to toughen up

a little. That's all.

Toughen up a lot.

Oh, my God! Stop!

What? What?

Yeah, I think we go left here.

You think?

What does the GPS say?

I don't know.

The stupid thing stopped working hours ago.

This f***ing piece of sh*t.

Come on.

It'll be an adventure

if we're wrong.

F*** it.

Oh, God!

Ugh.

Diesel exhaust is the worst.

Has this guy never heard

of climate change?

Obviously not.

Come on, what's his deal?

Why doesn't he just move over for us?

Come on, a**hole!

We don't have all day!

So what are you waiting for, girl?

Pass him.

It's too risky,

I'll take him at the summit.

Great.

We need gas.

Well, good, because

I have to f***ing pee.

That's quite the beast, uh?

Uh, yeah.

Nice car.

Thank you.

Fill 'er up for you?

Ah, yeah. Yes, please.

I'm dyin'

to see what you got under the hood.

Check your oil for you?

Knock yourself out.

Reception.

Hello.

Jill?

It is. Who's this?

It's Emily.

Oh, hey there, Emily.

Sorry, I didn't

recognize your voice.

Is Randy there?

Yes, just a second.

Hey Em, how's your trip going?

What is she doing there?

You knew

I was working from home.

You didn't answer my question.

What's she doing?

Jill was kind enough

to bring over some files

that I needed from the office.

They couldn't be couriered?

They could have, I suppose.

Oh, man.

You know how I feel about that woman.

How would you like it

if one of my co-workers

tried to bone me

at one of my office parties?

I wouldn't.

I just don't know

why you keep bringing it up.

Because you did nothing

to discourage it.

So what are you saying?

Are you still there?

You're right.

Of course, you're right.

I need to stop blaming you

for my insecurities.

I'll...

just need

to toughen up a little.

A lot.

Well, that would be

a good start.

Em?

You know I love you, right?

You called him, didn't you?

Yeah.

What am I gonna do with you?

Tell me more about Dick.

I knew you'd come around.

He's so hot.

You're gonna love him.

Oh, I think his

name is... Rick?

How much do I owe you?

$38.50 ma'am.

But, you're a little low on oil.

I think we should leave now,

before you-know-who

gets back on the road.

Good idea.

Um, I'll fill 'er up

at the next stop.

Well, suit yourself.

Just don't wait too long.

You might end up

thrashing the engine.

What's going on?

Oh, my God,

watch out! F***!

Just move.

Move, a**hole.

What?

Can you believe this guy?

Well, what

are you waiting for, Em?

Pass him

before he changes his mind.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God! Oh!

Oh! Oh! He's...

He did that on purpose?

He's... He's trying

to f***ing kill us.

That other car, too.

What is with him? We passed him

a couple of f***ing times

and he goes flying off

the f***ing hanger!

He's got to be f***in' crazy.

He's gotta be.

No one else would

f***ing act like this.

Hey, f*** this. It's either

his job or our lives.

Speed up, Em.

I want you to read off

the numbers on

the back of the truck there.

Five-five-five...

Yeah.

one-two...

Yeah.

six-five.

F***!

There's no service.

I-I can't take the smell.

Time to leave this guy

in the dust.

Idiot!

"Idiot"?

Is that what you got, Em?

What else do you want me to say?

F*** you, you f***in' a**hole!

Don't do that again.

What?

Hey, sit back. Relax.

Enjoy the ride.

Smooth sailing from here on.

Wake me when

we get to Palm Springs.

Oh, come on.

Don't get too comfortable.

Just pass.

What the hell

is he trying to prove?

No idea.

This is a joke, right?

This has gotta be some f***ing

sick f***ing perverted joke,

right?

Because what else could this f***ing be,

you f***in' a**hole?!

Stop yelling, OK?

Stop yelling.

It's not helping.

Just please, sit there.

Let me handle this, OK?

Yeah, fine.

Handle it.

I was right, wasn't I?

Yeah. It's just a joke.

This is one big f***ing joke,

you f***ing a**hole!

Easy. Easy, Em.

Easy...

Got this.

I got it, I got it.

F*** you, a**hole!

F*** you!

Whoo!

Easy, easy.

F*** you!

Whoo!

Whoa!

Last we see of him.

Way to go, Em.

Don't let him catch up to us.

Just go.

Drive, drive.

He's gonna f***ing kill us, Em.

Brace yourself.

Oh, f***.

Come on.

No reception.

Yeah.

Come on.

F***!

Hey.

We're still alive, OK?

We're still alive.

I walk like that after

a night of heavy poundin'.

Yeah, we're just in

a little discomfort, that's all.

Nothing a few

painkillers can't cure.
