Thank You, Tom.
See You Later, Boy.
Hello, Mike.
You Too Busy To Say Hello?
James Loomis. I Wondered When You'd Get Here.
Just Barely Made It. Plane Was Late.
Well, Pat Was Right.
Meaning What?
He Had Larry Frank Qualify Your Car.
How Did He Do?
You're In The Fourth Row.
Heard You Did All Right In California.
How Did You Know? Oh, You Mean Racing.
Yeah, I Meant Racing.
Well, I Won One,
Came Close In A Couple.
What Did You Think I Meant?
Well, I Guess You'll Find Out Soon.
I Met A Girl.
Is That It? I Got News For You.
We've Got Them Here, Too.
Yeah, But Not Like This One.
You Sound Serious.
Right Off The Deep End.
You Going To Marry Her?
I Just Have To Persuade Her.
Well, With Her In California
And You Here--
She'll Be Here In A Day Or Two.
Hi, Jim.
Glad You Made It.
Hi, Pat.
Have A Nice Trip?
Except For Being Late.
We Have A Pit Board
With A Yellow Border
For Your Signals
And You Use The Same Old Black One.
Can You Keep That Straight?
All Right, Papa.
All Drivers Report To Their Cars Immediately.
You Ready?
All Set.
Shall We?
The Cars Are Pulling Onto The Track.
In A Few Moments,
You'll See The Start Of The Annual Daytona 500,
40 Of The Fastest Cars In The Country.
On The Pole, Paul Goldsmith In A Plymouth.
His Qualifying Time A New Track Record,
179.910 Miles Per Hour.
On The Outside, Richard Petty In Car Number 43.
Row Two, On The Pole,
Car Number 26, Bobby Eisigs,
And On The Outside, Mike Marsh In The 28 Car.
All The Great Ones.
All Right, Pace Cars Leading The Way.
It's Near The End Of The Pace Lap.
They're Picking Up Speed Faster And Faster.
We May See A Start On The First Final Round.
Watch The Starter.
They're Onto The Straightaway.
The Pace Car Is Heading For The Apron.
Here They Come.
The Race Is Under Way.
500 Miles To Go.
500 Tough, Grueling Miles For Man And Machine.
All 40 Cars Are Taking The Green Flag
And Jamming Into The First Turn.
It's Mr. Petty, Former National Champion,
Taking The Lead.
On His Tail Mike Marsh In Car 28.
Running Third Is Bobby Eisigs.
Look At Jim Loomis Go!
Pat, Jim's Going Too Fast.
Slow Him Down.
Loomis Must Be Trying To Prove A Point.
He's Driving Way Over His Head.
Loomis Has Blown His Engine.
He's Heading For Car Number 63,
Rolling Clear Over Car Number 63,
Slamming Into The Wall,
Sliding Down The Straightaway,
Parts All Over The Racetrack.
And Now He Has Burst Into Flames.
There Is Confusion All Over The Race Track As 10 Cars
Try To Avoid
The Crack-Up.
Race Fans,
This Is One Of The Worst Fires
We Have Ever Seen
At Daytona International Speedway.
Here's The Driver Coming Out Of The Car,
And The Fire Crews Are Hurrying Toward Him.
Pat, I Don't Know.
All I Know Is Just Before The Race,
Jim Was Talking About This Girl.
Expecting Her Here In A Couple Of Days, He Said.
You Know Her Name? It Might Help.
No Name, No Address.
Did You Go Through His Things?
Yep. Nothing.
Not Even A Little Black Book?
Yeah, Sure.
You've Called Every Number In It.
You And Every Other Joker Around Here.
I Guess We'll Just Have To Wait Till She Gets Here.
[Doorbell Rings]
Come On In.
Imagine That...
A Girl Gets On A Plane,
Flies Clear Across Country,
Expects To Marry A Guy.
I Hope She Can Take It.
4:30, Fellas.
Jim Will Raise Hell
If We're Late To His Funeral.
Car Out Front?
Yep.
[Organ Music Plays]
Mike.
Pat.
Boys, That Girl You Told Me About Is Here.
You Know, Jim's Girl.
She Got In About An Hour Ago.
There Wasn't Anything I Could Do.
I Had To Tell Her Jim Was Dead.
Oh, She Got All--
Her Face Got White.
I Asked Her If I Could Help,
But She Said She'd Like A Drink,
So I Gave Her One.
It Seemed To Do Some Good.
Then I Told Her You Fellas Were At The Funeral,
There Was Probably Time To Drive Her Over.
She Got A Funny Look On Her Face
And Said She Didn't Want To Go,
Says It Was Her Fault Jim Was Dead.
I Don't Know What She Meant By That.
I Took Her Over To Your Room, Mike.
She's Over There Now.
I, Uh, I Hope That Was O.K.
Oh, Sure. Thanks, Pop.
Well...
Hey, Mike...
I'm Not Too Good With Crying Women.
I Think I'll Cut Out.
And I'm An Expert?
Come On. You, Too.
[Loud Rock Music Playing]
What Did You Say About Crying Women?
Sometimes This Music Is Better Than A Hymn To Some People.
[Turns Music Off]
Hello?
Anybody In There?
Hey...
Hey.
Come On.
No.
Uh, She's Asleep.
Out Cold.
Well, I Guess You Can't Blame Her.
No.
Suppose There's Nothing We Can Do Until Morning.
I'll See You Then.
Come On.
Good Night, Mike.
Yeah.
[Knock On Door]
[Knock Knock]
Yeah?
What Is It?
Can I Come In?
O.K. Come On In.
Uh, I'm Mike Marsh.
I Was A Friend Of Jim's.
Hi.
This Your Room?
Mm-Hmm.
Who Put Me To Bed?
Oh, Uh, I Did.
Where Are My Things?
Out Here. I Took 'Em.
I'd Like To Have Them, Please.
Sure.
Here You Go.
There You Go.
Why'd You Take Them?
I Didn't Want You To Go
Before I Talked To You.
Look, I'd Feel More Like Talking
If I Had A Minute To Pull Myself Together.
Sure.
I'll, Uh, Fix You Some Breakfast.
All I Want Is Coffee.
All Right.
Well, You Look A Little Better.
I Don't Feel Better.
Here.
Thanks.
Uh...
I--I Don't Even Know Your Name.
Holly Macgregor.
What Did You Want To Talk To Me About?
Uh, A Number Of Things.
One Is That, Uh...
Jim Said He Loved You
And Wanted To Marry You.
He Told Me That, Too.
Then Why Is It Your Fault Jim's Dead?
Why Weren't You At The Funeral?
Let's Just Drop It.
I'd Like To Know. He Was A Friend.
Can't You Just Let It Go?
All Right, I'll Tell You.
He's Dead Because He Was In Love With Me,
Because I'm Bad Luck.
That's Why It's My Fault.
That's Crazy.
Is It?
Twice Before, The Same Thing Happened.
Each Time, I Wound Up At A Funeral
Instead Of A Wedding.
You Want To Hear How The Other Two Died?
Uh, No.
No, Not Necessarily.
Well, Anyway, I Met Jim.
And We Had Fun.
A Lot Of Fun.
When He Asked Me To Marry Him,
I Thought, Why Not?
Then I Remembered, And I Said No,
And I Told Him Why--
Because I Was A Hoodoo And A Jinx--
But He Wouldn't Believe In My Kind Of Luck.
That's Why He Died,
And That's Why I Didn't Go To The Funeral.
Why Did He Have To Die?
Why Did He Have To Run Into Me?
That's A Lot Of Damn Nonsense, Holly.
I Knew You'd Say That.
I Could Have Bet You'd Say That.
I'm Making A Fool Of Myself.
Excuse Me.
[Doorbell Rings]
Come On In.
Morning.
Uh, Coffee. Help Yourself.
No, Thanks. I Had Mine.
How's The Young Lady This Morning?
That's A Long St--
The Young Lady's Making A Fool Of Herself Again.
Oh? Tell Me About It.
Tell You Later, Pat.
You're Pat Kazarian, Aren't You?
Yes. Yes, I Am.
I'm Holly Macgregor.
Holly.
Jim Said He'd Only Leave California
To Drive One Of Your Cars.
Maybe He Should've Stayed In California.
Yeah.
Well, Uh, Wh-What's Going On?
Um, I Was Just Going To Ask Holly
What She's Going To Do Now.
Get A Job.
Save Enough Money To Go Back To California.
Maybe We Can Help.
Thanks Just The Same.
It Would Be Better If I Got Some Work.
Maybe We Know Somebody.
Um...
Uh, Who Do We Know?
Well, I Know You.
And I Know You.
You're Going To Be Just What I Need.
I Don't Think You Have To Worry About A Job.
I Just Talked To Bill France At The Race Track.
Jim Loomis Turned Over His Insurance To You
Just Before The Race.
In A Couple Days You'll Get $10,000.
I Couldn't Take It.
You're All He Had.
I Can't Take It.
You Mind If I Ask Why Not?
Because I Didn't Know
Whether I Loved Jim Or Just Needed Him,
And Now I'll Never Know.
Well, He Loved You.
Do You Get Paid For Being Loved?
Well, Uh, Jim Would Have Said,
"Hell, It's Only Money."
He Would Have Wanted You To Have It.
Do You Always Say The Right Thing, Mike?
No. Not Always.
That's Settled.
Now Maybe We Can Get Some Work Done.
Make Yourself At Home.
We'll Be Back About 7:00 To Take You To Dinner.
Thanks.
See You Then.
Bye.
Should Have Known It Was You.
You Have Our Reservations?
You Didn't Phone.
Well, We'll Go Someplace Else.
When You're Hungry, Come Back.
I'm Hungry.
I'll Get You A Table.
That's Sweet.
Lindy, This Is Holly Macgregor.
Holly, Lindy Bonaparte.
Bonaparte?
Yeah. Husband's Name.
Only Thing He Left Me.
And This Watch.
Come On.
Hi, Spike.
Hello, Mike.
Hi, Spike.
Hi, Pat.
Holly.
Thank You.
By The Way, Pat,
Friday Night After You Left Here,
I Found This Lighter On Your Table.
It's Got Jim's Initials On It.
Yeah. It Was His.
You Keep It.
No. I Got All The Mementos I Can Use.
Maybe Somebody Could, You Know...
How About The Girl He Was Going To Marry?
I Didn't See Any Strangers At The Funeral.
I Guess She Didn't Get Here.
She Just Didn't Go To The Funeral.
No. What Kind Of A Girl Would--
Me And My Big Mouth. You're The Girl?
Yes, I Am.
Sorry.
You Must Be O.K.
Or You Wouldn't Be Here With Them.
I Spoke Out Of Turn. See You Later.
Mr. Kazarian?
Yeah.
Could We Talk With You?
You Don't Waste Any Time.
Well, It's Just--
I Know. Let's Go Over Here.
Excuse Me. I'll Be Right Back.
Who Are They?
Uh, Race Drivers.
After Jim's Job, Aren't They?
Oh, Sure.
I Suppose Somebody's Got To Take His Place.
I Can't Figure You.
Why?
You Said Somebody's Got To Take His Place.
That Makes Sense.
This Morning You Said Jim Died
Because You Were Bad Luck.
Well, That Doesn't Make Sense At All.
Jim Died
Because He Was Running Too Fast
Over The Red Line, And He Lost Control.
That Sounds Like His Fault,
Not Yours.
If What Happened To Me Happened To You,
How Would You Feel?
I Can't Answer That,
But I Know Somebody Who Could.
That Girl, Lindy, Who Owns This Place.
Well, She Was Married To A Driver,
And He Was Killed.
She Fell For Another Guy.
He Was A Driver, Too, And He Was Killed.
She Didn't Cry It Was Her Fault.
Damn You, Mike.
She Decided She Fell In Love
With The Wrong Profession.
Now She's Got A Nice Bank Teller.
He Sits All Day In A Wire Cage,
And She's Happy.
I Hope Nobody Holds Up The Bank.
If Anybody Does, They'll Get A Lot Of Money.
I Told Him If A Man Tries To Rob You,
Just Give It To Him.
Right On Time For A Drink.
You Always Do.
Am I Forgiven?
Of Course.
Hi.
Hello. I Thought You Were A Boy.
Well, I'm Not.
You Rode That Thing Like You Were.
Can't A Girl Ride That Thing?
Not Unless They're Like A Boy.
Anybody With Eyes Can See--
Don't Get Mad.
I'm Not Mad.
All Right. I'm Sorry.
You're A Female.
Thanks.
You Act Like I'm A--
See? You're Not Even Sure Yourself.
If I Were A Guy, I'd Deck You.
You're Thinking Like A Boy Again.
Look, Mister, You're Very Not Funny.
Morning, Julie. What's Going On?
You're Pat Kazarian, Aren't You?
That's Right.
I'm Ned Arp.
How Are You?
I See You Met My Sister.
Yeah, We Met.
What Are You Arguing About?
Nothing.
Mr. Kazarian, I'd Like To Talk To You--
You'd Like Jim Loomis' Ride, Right?
That's Right.
You're About The 10th Hotshot
After Me Today.
You're Going To Need Somebody.
Maybe I Have Somebody In Mind.
Who?
That's Not Any Of Your Business.
Well, It Isn't,
But I Bet I Can Outdrive Him.
You're That Good, Huh?
I'm That Good.
If I Believed Every Story,
I'd Wind Up With A Dozen A.J. Foyts And Parnelli Joneses.
Pat.
What?
Why Not Let Him Show What He Can Do?
Because I Don't Really Believe That--
You Got A Hunch, Kitten?
Kind Of.
Where You From?
Darlington.
Where'd You Start?
Same Way You Did. Midgets, Jalopies.
Been Winning Them All, Huh?
No. Not A Damn Thing.
Oh. Why Not?
I Can't Afford Anything That Can Win.
If You Had A Car, You Could Win?
That's Why I Came To You.
Because I Want To Win.
Joe, Mike And Kato At The Track?
They Left 30 Minutes Ago.
You Know Where The Test Track Is?
No.
Can You Follow Me?
If You Don't Go Too Fast.
All Right. Let's Go.
I Suppose You're Coming, Too, Kitten.
Yeah. I'll Take My Bike Over.
Hi, Pat.
Hello, Julie.
I Want To Use Your Car.
Sure, But Kato And I--
Just A Couple Laps.
We Were--
Yeah. I Know.
Arp, There's Your Car.
Just Get The Feel Of It. Stroke It.
Don't Set Any World's Records.
Pat, That Front End Is Pushing Pretty Bad.
We Were Going To Jack The Weight Around.
Oh, Really?
Push Him Right Up To The Wall.
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me?
Go On, Kato.
Are You Letting Him Take It Like That?
You Wanted To Know How Good He Was.
What About My Car?
Your New One Will Be Done Soon.
Why Don't You Give Him One That's Right?
If He's Good, He'll Be O.K.
If He Isn't--
He Can Find Other Work,
Like Fixing The Wall.
You've Got Lots Of Time.
Remember That.
Why Don't You Give Him A Chance?
Julie, Cut It Out.
You're Acting Like A Female.
What Do You Think I Am,
Your Brother?
O.K.
Take It Easy For A Lap.
How Many Spins He Make?
Three, But He Ended Up O.K.
Maybe He'll Do Better This Time.
Only One Spin This Time.
Well, He's Doing Better.
I Think He'll Make It This Time.
You'd Better Hire Him.
Better Stop Him Before He Breaks His Neck.
Kato, Wave Him In.
Well...
How'd You Like It?
This Your Car?
Yeah, It's Mine.
Can You Drive It Set Up Like It Is?
In A Straight Line.
Huh?
In A Straight Line.
Thought So.
And You Give It To Me.
You Trying To Make Me Look Like A Squirrel?
Any Decent Chauffeur Can Look Good
In A Car That's Set Up Right.
If It Isn't, Takes Talent
To Keep From Hanging It On The Wall.
You Say You're From Darlington?
Want To Go Back Next Week And Drive For Us?
Yeah. I'd Like To.
You Got Yourself A Ride If You Can Qualify.
What Was She Doing?
She Was Pushing Pretty Bad.
You Heard Him, Kato.
She Was Pushing Bad. Let's Look At It.
Take Two Turns Off The Right Front.
Well, You Got Your Job.
How Come?
You're Pretty Good Out There.
How Come You Helped Me With Your Brother?
I Don't Know.
I Didn't Expect That.
Thanks. I Owe You For It.
You Don't Owe Me Anything.
At Least I Can Buy You Dinner.
You Don't Owe Me Anything.
There You Go Talking Like A Boy Again.
Have You Got A Date Tonight?
No.
Are You At The Motel?
Yeah.
I'll Pick You Up Around 7:00.
O.K.
Yes, Mr. Baldwin,
A Table For Four For 8:30.
Yes. Thank You.
Hi, Julie.
You Have A Table For Two?
Sure. Come On.
Hey, Pat. Look.
I've Never Seen Julie Come In Alone With A Man.
It's About Time. She's Growing Up.
It Started About 10:30 This Morning
When He Showed Up.
Who Is He?
His Name's Ned Arp.
Should I Explain What He Does?
Is He Good?
He's Driving For Us At Darlington.
You Two Drinking Up The Profits?
Meet My New Partner.
You're Putting Me On.
No. I've Bought In.
It's All Because Of You.
You Introduced Us.
If It Goes, I'm A Champ.
If Not, A Chump.
It'll Go, And We'll Buy You A Drink.
Start Practicing.
Hey, We've Got Plans.
I Always Wanted That Place Next Door.
We'll Knock Out That Wall,
Put In New Tables, Records,
Um, Saturday Night Live Music,
The Works, Huh?
I Remember When This Place Was Just A Joint.
It'll Still Be A Joint, Only Bigger.
It's Scary.
It's So Big...
And Quiet...
Empty.
And Tomorrow There Will Be Thousands
And Thousands Of People...
And All That Noise.
Ned.
Ned?
Yeah.
What Are You Thinking About?
You're Thinking About The Race, Aren't You?
Does Winning Mean That Much To You?
You Talk An Awful Lot.
You Still Trying To Prove You're A Girl?
No, I Mean...
That's All You Really Care About--
Winning.
You Know What My Dad Does All Day?
He Walks Behind The Plow All Day
With My Granddaddy Behind Him Planting Seed.
Two Or Three Cousins, A Couple Of Uncles--
The Whole Damn Family's There,
And They Haven't Got A Nickel Between Them.
And I'm Not Going Back To That.
If I Win Some Races, I Get Some Money,
And I Plan To Win A Few Races.
Let's Go.
Ned, I Don't Want You To Go On Thinking I'm A Boy.
Darling.
Hmm?
Ned...
Tell Me About The Other Girls.
Tell You What About The Other Girls?
What Are They Like?
Don't Look At Me.
Julie, What?
Just Tell Me.
Don't Say Anything, Just Tell You?
Want Me To Use Sign Language?
Tell You What?
Other Girls, What Are They Like?
What Do You Mean, What Are They Like?
They're Like Girls.
Blonde...
Brunette...
Redhead.
Tall, Short.
Sexy, Not Sexy.
That's What I Mean...
Sexy And Not Sexy.
Well, Some Are,
And Some Aren't.
Depends.
On What?
I Don't Know.
How Can You Tell...
If A Girl's Sexy Or Not?
Well, Sometimes You Can't.
Sometimes, Uh... You Know.
You Have To Do A Little Research.
I Guess You've Done A Lot Of Research.
Well, Where I Come From,
At Sundown You Either Watch Television--
That's What I Want To Know.
What?
Tell Me About How You Can Tell
If A Girl Is Sexy Or Not.
What Do You Want Me To Tell You About?
I Just Want To Know If I'm...Sexy.
Don't Laugh At Me.
Just Tell Me...
Am I Sexy?
Oh, Honey.
I Don't Want You To Want Anyone Else.
I Just Want You To Want Me.
And As We Enter The 119th Lap
Of The Rebel 300,
The Terrific Pace Continues.
There's Still 99 Laps To Go,
But The Untold Story Today--
How Many Cars And Drivers Can Stand The Strain
Of 132 More Miles Of Racing At These Speeds?
Pat Kazarian's New Driver, Ned Arp,
Is Beginning To Move Up Now In Car 27
And Has Just Passed Car 45.
Now He's Passing Two More Cars,
Moving Into Third Spot And Drafting The Leaders.
This Is Arp's Track. He Knows Every Groove,
And For The First Time...
He's Trying Too Hard. He's Going To Lose It.
He Wants To Finish Early. Slow Him Down.
G.C. Spencer's Fifth,
And Buck Baker's Holding Sixth Position.
Ned Arp's Starting To Drop Back.
He's Leaving The Fight
To Richard Petty And Mike Marsh.
Petty's In The Lead,
But Marsh Is Just A Few Car Lengths Behind.
And There Goes Marsh!
He's Closing The Gap.
Now He's Almost Wheel-To-Wheel With Petty.
What A Battle.
Marsh Has Tried The Inside, Outside
In A Desperate Bid.
Petty's Managed To Fight Off Each Bid
And Hangs On To The Number One Spot.
Look At Them Go!
Both Drivers Flat-Out In These Closing Laps
Of The Darlington Rebel 300.
Look Out. Somebody's In Trouble.
Car 47 Is Losing It.
It's Jack Smith.
He's Up Against The Guard Rail.
He's Still Sliding, Now Toward The Infield.
That Was A Close One.
The Track's Clear. The Green Flag's Out.
Uh-Oh, There's Another One.
Car 81.
He's Hitting The Rail. More Cars Are Piling In.
Number 26 Is Losing It On Turn One.
Number 82 Gets By On The Inside.
Another Car Gets Slammed And Heads For The Wall.
Someone's On Fire,
And Another Car's Spinning In The Infield.
What A Mess!
Now The Yellow Flag Is Out,
The Field Is Slowing.
Drivers May Take Advantage Of This
To Make Their Final Refuel Stop.
Here Comes The First One Now.
It's Richard Petty.
Your Leader's Slowing Down, Heading For His Pit.
His Crew Swarms Him, Checking Every Detail.
And Here Comes Mike Marsh.
Both Your Leaders Are In The Pits,
Where Races Are Won And Lost.
Pit Speed Is More Important Than Ever.
They're Adding A Full Load Of Fuel.
Hurry With That Jack!
That's Enough Gas.
I Can Get Better Service At A Gas Station!
Shouldn't We Give Him A Head Start?
Just A Little.
There He Goes.
Here's Another Car Using The Yellow Flag
And Dropping Off The Track Onto The Apron,
Heading For The Pits.
It's Ned Arp,
Your Fourth Place Man.
He's A Lap Behind,
But The Kazarian Crew Is Really In Action.
Arp's Getting A Load Of Fuel
And Fresh Tires.
He Wants To Make Up For Time Lost Earlier.
20 Laps To Go,
And It's Still Petty And Marsh.
Johns Is Now Third,
And Ned Arp's A Lap Behind The Leader.
You're Doing O.K.!
Come On. Hurry It Up.
Take It Easy. It's Just Another Race.
And There He Goes.
Ned Arp Is Still Fourth,
But He's A Full Lap Behind The Leaders.
The Track's Clear. There's The Green Light.
We're Back To Racing.
It's Still Petty, With Marsh Close Behind.
Both Have Enough To Go All The Way(
So It's Still Anybody's Race.
Look At Them Go!
Wait A Minute.
I Think Marsh Is Going To Pass Petty.
Mike Marsh Has Passed Petty And Takes The Lead
As They Head Down The Back Straightaway.
Look At That Battle!
Petty Is Slowing.
Looks Like Marsh's The Flat-Out Pace
May Have Been Too Much For Petty's Machine.
He's Heading For His Pit.
That's A Tough Break For Richard Petty,
A Great Champion.
And There's The White Flag.
One Lap To Go For Mike Marsh.
Arp's Really Moved Up After That Last Pit.
He Has Marsh In Sight Coming Out Of Turn Two,
But Arp's Still A Full Lap Behind.
It Appears Time's Run Out For The Second Kazarian Car.
And There's The Checkered Flag
As They Lap A Slower Car.
It's Mike Marsh First, Bobby Johns Second,
And Ned Arp In Third Place.
Looked Pretty Good Your First Time Out.
Picked Up Some Money, Too.
Why Did You Slow Me Down?
Figured You Were Going Too Fast.
You Didn't Slow Marsh Down.
When You Get To Be Marsh, You Can Squawk.
Until Then, You Listen.
Bobby Johns Was Second,
And Ned Arp,
Driving The Team Car To Marsh's Ford Was Third.
Table?
Right This Way.
Hiya, Skinny.
Hi. What Are You Doing So Far From Carolina?
Came To Have A Drink With You.
Why Are You Alone? Can't You Get Dates?
Well, We Got One.
She'll Be Here Any Minute.
Which Half Do You Get, Jake?
He Gets The Half--
Here She Comes.
Hi, Sugar.
Hi, Leroy. Hi, Jake.
Hi.
You're Something To See.
Why, Thank You.
Very Pretty.
Thank You.
Glad You Came.
I Knew I Had A Date With One Of You,
But I Didn't Know Which.
Jake, We Got To Separate.
It's Getting So People Can't Tell Us Apart.
Your Date Was With Me, Sugar.
You're Sure?
I Hate To Disagree, But--
Now, Now, Fellas, Look Here,
I Can't Stand This Violent Arguing.
So While Y'all Make Up Y'all's Minds,
I'll Go To The Powder Room.
You Know, She, Uh...
She Looks Pretty Good.
Sure Does.
O.K. Call It.
I'll Call--
Uh-Oh.
Oh Ho.
Yes, Ma'am.
Oh, Yes.
I'd Like One Of Those--
Uh, Vodka With The Juice Of An Orange.
Screwdriver.
Yes. Thank You.
Oh. Excuse Me.
Which Of These Monies Do I Put In The Machine?
I'd Like To Get Some Cigarettes.
Let's See Now, Uh,
You Need A Quarter And A Nickel.
I'll Get Them.
Thank You.
What's Your Brand?
Any Kind.
Care For One Of Mine?
Oh. Thank You.
Y'all Sure Have A Funny Accent.
Are You French From France?
Yes, I Am. I've Just Come.
Welcome To Our Shores.
Here You Are.
How About A Drink?
I've Just Ordered One.
I'll Fetch It For You.
Do You Have The Lady's Drink?
Yes, Sir. Screwdriver.
You Seem To Be Doing Very Well.
Only For Better Foreign Relations.
That's A New Word For It.
Here You Are, Ma'am.
Mademoiselle Was Just Expressing
An Interest In Racing.
Is That Right?
Yes. Are You A Driver?
Yes, Ma'am. I'm Leroy Eggers.
I'm Gabrielle Queneau.
Tell Me,
What Do You People Think Of Degaulle?
Oh, That Would Take A Very Long Time.
That's A Topic Better Discussed Someplace Else.
You're Right-- Over Dinner.
Would You Care To Have Dinner?
Jake, You're Forgetting You Already Have Plans.
You're Forgetting You Made That Date.
That Black-Haired Girl?
The One That Preferred Me?
You're Carrying This Too Far.
Might I Interrupt? What's Going On?
We're Doing Just Fine.
These Two Nice Gentlemen
Were Asking Me To Dinner.
It's Not Your Affair.
No Offense, But You Are Intruding.
I Am?
Without A Doubt. Definitely.
You're Sure?
If He Needs Convincing...
I Guess We'll Have To Convince Him.
Hello, Boys.
Hey, Pat.
You've Already Met?
We Haven't.
This Is Jake Moffit And Leroy Eggers.
Jake.
Leroy.
This Is Dan Mccall.
Just Won The Race In Italy--Monza?
That's One.
And, Uh...
The Week Before, That Big One In England?
That's Two.
He's Here To Drive One Of My Cars.
We Went A Little Wide On That Last Turn.
We Haven't Met. I'm Pat Kazarian.
Oh, Gabrielle Queneau, The Girl I Told You About.
I've Heard About You.
What About That Dinner?
Dinner? Uh, We're Late.
Oh, Yeah, For An Appointment.
Sorry.
Nice Meeting You.
Hi, Pat. You Ready?
If You Have Peanut Butter.
You Ready?
Lead On.
What's Peanut Butter?
You'll See. That's Exactly What He's Getting.
Come On!
Let's Go, 7!
About Time You Showed Up.
Oh...
[Loud Music Starts]
I Had To See What Was Going On!
Hey, This Place Is Jumping.
Come Take A Look.
Come On. Hey, Come On.
This Is All Right.
Uh, Who's That Girl?
I See 8 Or 10.
Which One You Talking About?
Uh, That One With The Red Hair And The Brown Suit.
Oh. She Came Over From Paris With Dan Mccall.
Excuse Me.
I'm Going For A Drink.
Want One?
No, Thanks.
You're Having A Good Time.
It's Fun.
Have A Drink.
Worse Than Crossing The Track During Race Time.
Safer.
[Music Starts]
Oh.
[Tires Screech]
Hi. Want A Lift?
Yeah. Sure Do.
Watch It For Me, Fellas.
Someone Will Be Back To Pick Her Up.
You're Kind Of Unusual
Going Around Asking People You Don't Know
If They Want A Lift.
That's Not Done These Days.
It's A Bad Habit--
I Pick Up Famous Race Drivers Sitting In Ditches.
Pretty Good.
I Should Know You. Do I?
Holly Macgregor.
You Know Lindy's Place?
Well, I'm Her Partner.
I Know You. You're Dan Mccall.
How Did You Get In That Ditch?
A Small, Spotted Cat-- I Think A Female--
Couldn't Decide Which Way To Go.
Eventually, She Ran And Left Me.
You Think That's A Female Trait?
Where Are You Headed?
You Know The Holiday Inn?
Sure. I've Stayed There For A While.
Thanks For The Lift.
You're Welcome.
Buy You A Drink?
No, Thanks.
Any Particular Reason Why Not?
Yeah, As A Matter Of Fact.
I Might Have You Confused With Somebody Else,
But Weren't You With A Good-Looking French Girl?
You're Not Mixed Up.
I Used To Wonder What Life's Like In A Harem.
Know What?
I Decided Against It.
You Know, Maybe I'm Wrong,
But Wasn't There A Time You Could Talk To A Girl,
Just Because You Liked Her,
Not Because--
That's The Only Reason You Asked?
No, Not The Only Reason.
I Wanted You To Meet That French Girl.
She Doesn't Know Many People.
She Thinks I'm A Sex Maniac, Too,
But She Humors Me.
I Think She Thinks I'll Snap Out Of It.
Dan. I'm Sorry.
I Apologize.
Come On.
Well, She's Supposed To Be Here.
I Don't Know Why,
But, You Know, I Believe You.
Ah, That Is Good.
He Promised Me Just Yesterday
That He Would Not Lie Anymore.
So, What Did He Tell You?
That You're Supposed To Be Here.
Well. He Did Not Lie. I'm Gabrielle Queneau.
Holly Macgregor.
I Invited Holly For A Drink.
Why Do You Need Me?
To Make The Drinks.
[Speaking French]
Hey, Uh...
[Speaking French]
Uh, Gaby...
Hey, Gaby,
What About The Drinks?
Oh, Yes. I'd Like A Screwdriver.
Me, Too.
[Speaking French]
Uh, Gaby, Uh...
Make The Drinks.
Oh, Yes. Tout De Suite.
Can I Help?
You Stay Here. I'll Talk To You.
O.K.
[Speaking French]
Operator, Please Give Me Pat Kazarian's Place.
I'd Like To Talk To Ed Furness.
[Speaking French]
Shh.
Hi, Sparky. Dan Mccall Here.
Fine. Listen,
The Daytona Coupe Is Parked In A Ditch.
That Back Road In From The Track,
About 1 1/2 Miles In From Town.
No, But You'll Need A Hoist
To Get It Back On The Road.
Yeah, Yeah. I--I Know.
I'll Learn To Drive Someday.
Hi.
Holly.
[Speaking French]
Gaby, Holly.
Hey, Look, This Time--Hey,
This Time We're Speaking English
So I Can Understand.
O.K.
What's Happening?
I Have To Go To Work.
Bye.
[Fanfare]
[Cars Revving Up]
Hey, Carol, Come On. Sis, Everybody.

¶ Wildcat Jones, What's Happened To You? ¶
All Right. It Was Good.
She's A Nice Girl, Isn't She, Dan?
Yes, She Is. Very Nice.
What's Funny?
How Do You Know Which Girl I Mean?
Well, If You Mean The Girl I Was Thinking About...
Holly.
You're A Mind Reader.
You Like Her Very Much, Don't You, Dan?
I Hadn't Thought About That.
But You Think About Her.
Petit. Perhaps You Love Her.
That's Crazy, Gabrielle.
I Don't Even Know Her.
How Could I Love Her?
It Doesn't Make Sense.
Once--Once I Read In A Book,
If Love Makes Sense, Then It Isn't Love.
So Maybe I'm Not So Crazy, Huh?
Tonight When Holly Sings...
I Saw The Way You Looked At Her.
You Never Look At Me Like That,
And I Never Look At You Like That.
So, This Time, I-- I Think You Are In Love.
And...I'm Not A Mind Reader.
I Know.
How Do You Know?
Ah, Today At The Beach,
On The Sand...
When You Were Asleep,
You Talked, And You Said Her Name.
It Was A Very Nice Dream.
This Isn't Fair To You, Is It?
I'm Sorry.
You Don't Have To Be Sorry For What You Dream.
You Know...
I Think I'm Jealous.
Well, If You Were,
You Certainly Didn't Show It Tonight.
I'm Not Jealous Of Holly.
I'm Jealous Of You...
Because You're In Love.
Gaby?
Are You Crying?
I Remember Once
When I Was 8 Years Old...
And We Were Moving To A New Home.
As We Were Getting In The Car To Go,
I Turned Around To Look Once More At The Old House...
And Like Now, I...
I Cried.
To Say--To Say Goodbye To Someone
Or Something That Has Been A Happy Time In Your Life--
That Is Not Easy.
Perhaps It Will Be Difficult For You If I Stay Here.
If You Like, I Shall Return To Paris.
Don't Worry About Me.
What Do You Want To Do?
I Like It Here.
If You Don't Mind,
I'd Like To Stay A While.
Stay As Long As You Like.
Are We Still Friends?
What Are You Doing For Dinner Tomorrow Night?
I'm Having Dinner... With A Friend.
See You Tomorrow Night.
Hello There.
Well, Hello.
Table For Two, Please.
All Right. Right This Way.
Best Table In The House.
Thank You.
Hey, Dan.
Tommy.
I'll Be Right Back.
Order Drinks.
What Would You Like?
Screwdriver And Scotch And Soda.
O.K.
[Music Plays]
Please, Do You Have A Light?
Oh, Yeah.
The Music's Good, Isn't It?
Yeah.
If You Like That Kind Of Music.
[Jazz Plays]
Hi.
Hi, Pat.
What Are You Doing Here?
Playing Records.
Are You Really?
You're Playing Them For The Whole Neighborhood.
[Volume Decreases]
Haven't You Got Anything Better To Do?
Why Are You Here By Yourself?
Why Not Get A Date? Call A Girl.
Why Don't You Call That One You're Always Watching?
What Girl?
That French Girl That Came Over With Dan.
What Do You Mean, Always Watching?
I Don't--
Don't Tell Me That.
I've Seen You. Go On, Call Her Up.
She And Dan Split Up 10 Days, 2 Weeks Ago.
Yeah?
Why Did They Split Up?
What Difference Does It Make?
Guy Brings A Girl 3,000 Miles And Drops Her.
So He Drops Her. Go On, Call Her.
I Don't Think So.
Why Not?
Fix Her Up With Somebody Else.
There Are Plenty Of Monkeys Don't Get To Meet Her Kind.
What Makes You So Holy?
Hey!
See This Shirt?
Yeah.
It's New.
Those Shoes, They're New.
No One Ever Wore Them But Me.
Everything I Got Is New.
Second-Hand Don't Appeal To Me. Lay Off.
Mike, See These Eyeballs?
They're Not New,
But They're Good Enough To See Through You.
Now, I'll Tell You Something--
I Don't Want To Be Around When You Eat Those Words.
I Don't Want To Be Anywhere Near.
Good Night.
[Turns Up Volume]
There's The Green Flag,
And The First Lap Is On In The Atlanta 500.
There's A Long, Long Way To Go.
Biff Taylor In Car 01 Takes The Lead.
Mike Marsh Is Second In Car 28.
Dan Mccall Is Third In Car 17.
Ned Arp In Car 22 Has Just Passed Petty.
Car 25 Is In 10th Position.
That Makes Three Cars From The Pat Kazarian Team
In The First 10 Positions.
Derringer.
Wait A Minute!
Derringer, Car 16, Is Into The Wall!
He's Lost His Front Tire,
Heading For The Pit On Three Wheels And A Bumper.
No Other Cars Involved.
All Cars Clear On The Outside.
Looks Like Darryl Will Make It Into The Pit O.K.,
But Will He Get Back Into The Race?
We'll Stay On The Green Flag
As We Continue In The Fourth Lap
Here In The Atlanta 500.
Records Are Still Falling
As We Go Into The 172nd Lap
With 242 Rugged Miles Still To Go,
And Mike Marsh In Car 28 And Bobby Eisigs In Car 26
Running Side By Side.
Wait A Minute! Eggers Is Losing It.
Ned Arp Can't Avoid Him.
He's Sliding Down The Track.
They're Both Against The Rail.
Arp's Holding His Own.
He's Steering His Car Into The Infield.
Leroy Eggers In Car 6 And Ned Arp
Have Both Managed To Get Into The Infield.
There's Leroy Eggers. He's O.K.
And There's Ned Arp. Seems To Be All Right.
Uh-Oh. They're Walking Toward Each Other.
There May Be Trouble.
No, No, No. No Trouble.
There's No Hard Feelings. Just Racing Luck.
The Track Is Clear,
And The Green Light's Still On.
I Don't Know What Happened,
But There's A Car Sliding On Its Back.
A.J. Foyt's Spinning Into The Infield.
It's Paul Goldsmith Who's Upside Down In Car 25.
The Yellow Flag Will Be Up For This One.
What A Race This Has Been.
With Only 20 Laps To Go,
It's Been A Seesaw Battle Between Mike Marsh In 28
And Marvin Panch In The 21 Car.
Somebody Else In In Trouble.
I Can't See The Number From Here.
Wait A Minute, It's Dan Mccall In Car 17.
He's On The Edge Of The Track.
A Great Job Of Control.
Mccall's O.K., But I'm Afraid He's Out Of The Race
As It Looks From Here.
Well, The Duel's Still On,
And Panch Is Trying Desperately
To Get Ahead Of Marsh In Car 28.
Marsh Is Holding Him Off
As We Go Into The Final Laps Of This Race.
In Third Place Is Richard Petty Who Is...
You O.K.?
I'm O.K.
What Happened?
Eggers Bounced Off The Wall Ahead Of Me.
I Couldn't Miss Him.
You Can't Miss Them All.
Two. That's Pretty Good For A Start.
Uh-Oh. Marsh Is Falling Back.
Pat, Mike's In Trouble.
He's Dropping Down To The Apron.
Here Comes Mike Marsh, Heading For The Pit.
We Don't Know What The Trouble Is,
But It's Not A Scheduled Stop.
Looks Like Marsh Is Out Of This Race.
Even If They Repair The Car,
Looks Like Marsh Has Lost His Chance To Win.
What A Bad Break For Mike Marsh.
He Dominated This Race,
But It Looks Like Panch Will Be The Winner.
This Is A Tough One For Marsh.
He Needed This Win To Keep Him In Contention...
The Header's Leaking. We Can Weld It.
Put Him Down Over Here. Get Oxygen.
Get That Frame Off His Head.
Don't Break His Neck.
Don't Hit Me. I'm On Your Team.
We're Losing Time. Hurry!
Here's Your Chance To Win One.
Go On, Get In There.
[Cough Cough]
Here's A Flash From Marsh's Pit.
The Car Is O.K.,
And Kazarian's Sending In Ned Arp To Finish The Race.
Ned Arp Is In Car 28 And Is 32 Seconds Behind.
Arp's Out Of The Pit In Second Place,
And He'll Have To Catch Marvin Panch In 21.
Arp Has A Long Haul
If He's Going To Catch Panch In The Laps Remaining.
Arp Has A Slim Chance,
And He's Pulling All The Stops.
Here Comes Panch. Hold It!
Panch Is In Trouble.
Your Leader's Slowing Down, Heading For His Pit.
Marvin Panch Is Coming Down The Pit Road,
Swerving From Side To Side.
He's Lost His Brakes
And Came In Rather Than Risk An Accident.
How About That For A Twist Of Fate?
Just A Few Laps Left. Wait A Minute!
Biff Taylor In The 01 Car Is Sliding.
The Green Flag Is Still On,
And There Goes Ned Arp In The Lead.
He's Pouring It On.
Ned Arp Is In Front,
And It Looks Like The Kazarian Car
Will Win After All.
There's No Stopping Arp
As He Continues To Pour It On.
He's Heading Around Toward The White Flag.
And There's The Checkered Flag.
Ned Arp Wins.
Right. Go Ahead, Joe.
Hi, Pat.
Good Race, Pat.
Thanks. Thanks A Lot.
Lindy, Has Julie Been In Here This Evening?
I Don't Think So. I Haven't Seen Her.
This Way, Please.
[Knock On Door]
Come In, Pat.
Hello, Kitten.
What Are You Doing?
I'm Just Waiting.
You Might Have To Wait A Long Time.
He Was Still At Lindy's When I Left.
He Wasn't Alone, Was He?
No.
No, He Wasn't Alone.
Going To Let This Go To Waste?
All The Bubbles Are Gone.
Like To Scramble Some Eggs?
I Just Want To Wait.
Good Night, Kitten.
Good Night.
Arp, You In There?
Yeah, Yeah.
[Knock On Door]
Arp!
It's Unlocked.
You No Good--Couldn't Keep Your Hands Off Her,
Could You?
Always Trying To Prove You're Some Big Shot.
No Car You Can't Handle, No Girl You Can't Spoil.
Sure, She Was Ready, Just Waiting For A Man.
If You Were A Man, Maybe,
But You're Just A Rotten Little Kid.
You Don't Care What You Do, Just Grab--
Grab What You Want, Grab Who You Want.
Never Mind What It Might Do To Her.
Well, It's Done. She'll Get Over It.
But If You Touch Her Again--
Now You Listen To Me.
You Won't Do A Damn Thing.
That's Right.
Not A Thing...
Not As Long As I Keep Winning Races For You.
See How You Think?
I Feel Sorry For You.
You're Right, Though.
You're Right. I Won't Do Anything.
But Winning Has Nothing To Do With It.
The Only Reason I Don't Go After You Is Julie.
You Think You're Big Enough To Handle Me?
Ever See A Tire Iron Split A Man's Skull?
Sometimes I Need Help.
I Don't Worry About Handling You.
The Minute She Gets You Out Of Her System,
Look For Me Because I'll Be Looking For You.
Do I Make Myself Clear?
Is There Any Doubt In Your Mind What I'm Saying?
No Matter What Happens,
It Won't Come As A Surprise.
I Hope It Doesn't Happen, For Your Sake.
Now, Look, Mister. Will You Please!
Look, It's Sunday Morning.
Yes, Sunday.
No, We're Not Open,
And We Won't Be Open Until Tomorrow Afternoon At 4:00.
No, I Don't Know Where You Can Get A Drink.
Goodbye.
Where Were We?
We Need 8-10 Dozen More Glasses-- Highball, Cocktail.
The Peach Brandy's All Gone.
I Didn't Know Peach Brandy Was So Popular.
That's Because Of Art Nadell.
He Gets To Brooding About His Fourth Wife.
[Telephone Rings]
If That's That Fella Who Wants A Drink, Hang Up.
Alcoholics Unanimous. Can We Help?
Pat? Hi. Holly.
No, She Hasn't Been In. Why?
Oh, No.
What?
Well, We Could Use Her.
Forget It.
Yeah, I'll Call.
Well, That Does It.
Does What?
That Was Pat.
Ned Arp Left This Morning.
What? What?
Just Walked Out. He's Going To Drive For Ted Eubank.
Ted Runs In California.
I Know.
Well, What About Julie?
She's Part Of What He Walked Out On.
Oh, No.
That Isn't Right.
Pat Says She's Coming Over.
He's Called, But The Line's Been Busy.
Darn Drunk.
She's Going To Ask Us For A Job.
Will We Give It To Her?
Poor Kid.
If It Was Anybody But Her, I'd Understand.
Why Does It Always Happen To Somebody Like Julie?
[Doorbell Buzzes]
That's Her.
Hi, Julie.
Hi.
Hi, Julie.
Hi, Lindy.
Hello, Julie.
Well, I Thought I'd...
I Can Tell By Your Faces You Heard.
Sometime In A Girl's Life, She's Going To Lose Someone.
Somebody's Going To Walk Out
Or Something's Going To Happen.
First Time's The Roughest.
No, No.
You Don't Understand.
He Didn't Walk Out On Me.
He Walked Out On Pat.
He--He Left A Note For Pat, And He Went.
He Didn't Leave Me A Note.
He Didn't Even Say Goodbye...
Because It's Not Goodbye.
It Can't Be.
Come On, Take It Easy.
I'm Not Crying For Me.
It's For Him...
Because He's Going To Need Me...
And He'll Be Sorry, And He'll Want Me,
And I Won't Be There.
He'll Be Back. I Know He Will.
[Hillbilly Version Of I've Been Working On The Railroad Plays]
Hi.
Hello.
It's Really Hot, Isn't It?
Ooh...It's Good To Be Warm
And To Be Cool Inside,
Isn't It, Mike?
Sure, I Know Your Name.
Mike Marsh.
Very Good.
Very Apropos.
What?
Your Name.
Mike Marsh. It, Uh, Fits You.
Short, Curt.
It Makes A Picture.
Names Often Match The, Uh--
How Do You Say-- Personality,
Do You Not Think So?
I Wonder If One's Entire Future Is Not Shaped
By The Name One's Parents Give One.
Take Napoleon Bonaparte.
He Had To Be Emperor.
George Washington Had To Be President.
Oscar Wilde Had To Be, Uh...
Excuse Me. What's Your Name?
Gabrielle Queneau.
You May Call Me Gaby.
Gaby?
It Figures.
I Know I Talk Too Much.
That Music's Nice, Isn't It?
Why Didn't You Say
If You Liked That Kind Of Music Before. Hmm?
It Could Be That I Didn't Want To Say It, Hmm?
Why Don't You Run Away From Me Like You Did Before?
Because I Trap You Here?
You're Not Much Of A Trap.
Why Don't You Run Away?
It Could Be That I Don't Want To Run.
Hi.
What Are You Doing?
Just Sitting Here.
I See That. You're Supposed To Be A Partner Here.
I Didn't Feel Like Going Out There Tonight.
No, Nor Last Night, Nor Four Or Five Nights Before That.
What's The Matter? Tell Me.
It's Nothing, Lindy.
Is It Dan Mccall?
Why Do You Say That?
Because You've Been Brooding Since You Went Out Together.
Did He Make A Pass?
No!
Mad Because He Didn't?
It's None Of Your Business.
You're In Love With Dan.
Just Let It Go.
Aren't You?
Listen, I've Had It.
No More Love, No More Funerals, Nothing.
I'm Not Going To Have Anything Happen To Dan.
It's Not Going To Be My Fault.
You Understand That?
You're Going To Spend Your Life Feeling Sorry For Yourself.
Think It's Easier That Way?
It Isn't. I Tried It.
I'm Not You!
No, You're Not.
You're Something Special.
You Think You Can Get People Killed By Saying Hello.
A Man Kisses You, He's Got A Ticket To St. Peter.
Makes You Feel Important, Doesn't It?
You Think That's Funny.
Yes, Because I Thought It Was God Who Decided Who Lived Or Died,
And You Don't Look A Bit Like God.
I Saw You From Out There.
You Shouldn't Cry In Public.
What Do You Want?
You. But In The Meantime
I Thought I'd Tell You I'm Still Alive.
What's That Supposed To Mean?
I Shouldn't Be Alive Because I'm In Love With You.
Isn't That What You Think?
I Think You'd Better Go.
Holly, Hey, Just Listen To Me For A Minute.
This Afternoon, Paper Flew Up In The Grill.
I Started To Overheat And Had To Pull Into The Pit.
As I Was Coming In, Pat Saw My Tire.
It Was Cut Wide Open.
Another Lap, And I'd Have Hit The Wall.
But I Didn't Hit The Wall,
And I Was In Love With You This Afternoon.
Last Week, Two Cars In Front Of Me Lost It.
They Started To Spin.
I Was Too Close To Do Anything But Go Straight.
A Hole Opened Up. I Went Through.
The Hole Closed, And Some Boys Behind Me Got It Bad.
I Was In Love With You Then.
So If You Think You're A Jinx,
You Just Stick Around, Kid.
Well, That's All.
I Just Want You To Know I Love You,
And I'm Still Alive.
I'll See You.
[Music Plays]
[Whistling Won't You Come Home, Bill Bailey]
¶ I Know I've Done You Wrong ¶
¶ 'Member That Rainy Evening ¶
¶ I Drove You Out
[Whistles]
¶ With Nothing But A Fine-Tooth Comb ¶
¶ I Know I'm To Blame
¶ Well, Ain't That A Shame? ¶
¶ Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home? ¶
Oh, It's Been A Lovely Day.
No? It Was Not A Lovely Day?
It Was O.K.
Then Why Did You Not Say So Before?
I Just Said So. It Was O.K.
O.K., O.K. That's A Big Speech For You.
Why Don't You Talk To Me?
Or Ask Me Some Questions?
Well, You're Usually Doing The Talking.
I Know I Talk Too Much.
I'll Be Still, And You Talk.
All Right.
Uh...
It Has Been A Lovely Day.
Oh, I Said That Already.
Ask Me Some Questions.
Uh...
Well, I'd Like To Know More About You,
Your Dreams And Desires.
What Do You Want To Do?
Oh, What A Question.
You Know What I Would Really Like To Do?
Something Tells Me I Shouldn't Have Talked.
I Want To Go To The Practice Track,
Where You Try The Cars Out.
Why Do You Want To Go There?
I Want To Do Something I've Never Done Before.
I Want To Drive The Car...
Fast, Very Fast.
And Not On The Road, But On The Track.
Please, Mike.
Please.
Hmm.
All Right.
Oh!
That's Getting Off Easy.
Now You Think You Can Slide Over?
Sure.
Hey, You Forget Something?
No.
Oh, The Seat Belt.
Let Me Get Mine On.
All Right. Take It Easy The First Time Around.
Leave It In Third.
That's Good.
Faster?
All Right.
Punch It. Punch It Hard.
Hit It!
All Right, Now. Easy, Easy.
That's Good.
Well, I Think That's Enough.
Is There Anything Else You'd Like To Do?
Oh, Mike, Don't Say Anything
For A Moment, Please.
Oh, That Was Wonderful.
It Was Something I've Never Felt Before,
Something New.
You Know, To Me, The Racing Car
Is Like Some Kind Of A Great Animal,
Like A Lion That Roars
As Though It Were Proud Of Its Speed.
You Were The Lion Tamer, Huh?
Yes. That's What I Was.
I Wasn't Driving A Car.
I Was Taming A Lion.
Well, This Lion Almost Got Out Of Hand For A Moment.
What's The Difference?
This Is Something I've Always Wanted To Do,
And Dan Would Never Let Me Do It.
I Remember Once We Were In Nuremberg, Germany.
Dan Was The Winner, And I Asked Him If--
Move Over.
What's The Matter?
Move Over.
But What Did I Do?
What Did I Do Wrong?
[Music Playing]
I Rang The Bell.
I Guess Your Music Drowned Me Out.
I Didn't Know You Painted.
Everybody Ought To Have A Hobby.
It Keeps You From Thinking About Unpleasant Things.
Or Does It?
No, It Doesn't.
Dan...
I Asked You Here...
Well, Because...
Because I Wanted To Tell You
I'm In Love With You.
Wait A Minute. Let Me Finish The Whole Thing.
Maybe I've Been Wrong About My Thinking.
Do You Still Want To Take A Chance On My Luck?
Hey.
I Don't Think I'm Taking Any Chance.
Oh, Dan.
You're Going To Have To Help Me.
You're Going To Have To Help Me
Because I'm Still Afraid.
Hey.
I Must Have Fallen Asleep.
Is It Late?
Yeah. It's After 3:00.
Oh, Dan, I'm Sorry,
But...I Must Talk With You.
What's The Matter, Kitten. You Got Troubles?
Yes, I Have Troubles.
It's With Mike.
Tell Me About It.
Ohh...
Dan, I Love This Man.
I Love Him,
And I--I Know He's Strange, But...
But I've Never Known A Man Like Him Before.
Maybe That's Why I Love Him.
Gaby, Is Mike In Love With You?
Ohh...
Sometimes.
Sometimes I Think He Hates Me.
Tonight I--I Found Out What It Is.
He's Ashamed.
He's Ashamed Of Me,
And You Know Why He's Ashamed?
Because Before Him There Was You,
And Everybody Knows It.
And He Wants A Girl No One Ever Touched Before,
And So He's Ashamed.
And He Knows It's All Over Between Us,
But He Hates You.
Danny...
He's...
He's Crazy, You Know?
So Please Watch Out For Him.
I'll Be Careful.
That's What I Came To Tell You.
Thank You, Gaby.
How Are Things With You And Holly?
Fine.
They're Just Fine.
I'm Very Happy For You Both.
Please Tell Her.
You Tell Her. She'd Like It.
Hi.
What Were You Doing In There?
Huh?
What Were You Doing In There With Him?
Can't You Talk?
Hmm?
Hey, Now Tell Me--
Tell Me What It Was.
I Was Telling Him To Be Careful.
You Were Telling Him To Be Careful?
Careful Of What?
To Be Careful Of You.
Well, Are You...
Are You Afraid I'd Find Out
About You And Him?
Is That It?
You Told Me It Was All Over.
You--You Told Me You Were Through With Him.
Didn't You?
Hmm?
Didn't You?
You're A Liar.
You're A Slut!
Slut!
Operator...
Room Number 11, Please.
Dan, When I Just Left Your Room,
Mike Was Outside Waiting,
And He's Crazy, Dan.
He Might...
He Might Do Anything.
He Just Might Do Anything.
What The Hell Is Mike Trying To Do?
What A Battle Between Mike Marsh In Car Number 28
And Dan Mccall In The 21 Car.
They're Both Flat Out-- Full Bore.
What Is He Doing?
I Think He's Trying To Kill Him.
Their Lead Over The Field Is Almost A Full Lap.
Look At These Two Go!
They're Passing The Slower Car.
That's Marsh Who's Right Beside Mccall.
What A Race. They're Running Closer And Closer.
They're Going Through Turn 4,
Coming Out On The Straightaway.
They're Only Inches Apart.
Don't, Mike. Please!
Someone Has To Give Way.
They Can't Get Through The Turn Together.
See Which One Gives Way.
Watch It. The Turn's Coming Up. Watch It.
Oh, No!
Mccall Is Completely Airborne.
Oh, God, No!
He's Rolling Down The Embankment.
This Could Be A Bad One.
The Car Has Burst Into Flames.
We Can't See Anything Because Of The Smoke And Flames.
The Fire Trucks And Emergency Crews
Are Rushing To The Scene Of The Accident.
We Can't See Anything From Here,
But Just Remember, Drivers Have Walked Away
From Crashes Worse Than This.
We'll Try And Get You--
Wait A Minute! Yes, Come On In, Fred.
This Is Fred Regan At The North Turn.
Dan Mccall Is All Right.
He Got Out Of The Car,
And Ambulance Men Are Examining Him.
He's Only Shaken Up. He's A Lucky Man.
I'd Say He's Lucky.
We're Still In The Green Flag.
We're Back To Racing.
What Are You Thinking About?
Oh, Today, And All The Things
That Can Happen In One Day,
And How Your Life Can Change Just Like That.
You Know, When You Went Over The Wall Today,
It Could Have Been The End Of You...
And Me, Too.
Instead...
Well...
When It All Happened...
And All I Could See Was Smoke...
I Thought I Did It, It's My Fault.
When That Voice Said You Were All Right
And He Could See You Walking Away
And You Weren't Dead...
You Were Alive Because You Had
All The Luck In The World.
It Was Like...
It Was Like Somebody Squeezing My Stomach,
Squeezing All The Poison Out.
I Stopped Being Scared.
Dan, I Don't Think I'll Ever Be Scared Again.
Well, We're Racing In Charlotte Next Week.
I Think You'd Better Win One For A Change.
I Want To Ask You Something.
[Doorbell Chimes]
Come On In.
I've Looked Everywhere For Him.
Everywhere.
No One Has Seen Him. Nobody.
Dan, You've Got To Find Him.
After What He Did,
He's Going To Need Help.
He's Going To Need A Lot Of Help, And...
I'm Afraid He's Going To Do Something.
Come On In.
What Do You Want?
Were You Hurt Bad?
No.
Will You Race Next Week?
Why?
You Want Another Chance At Me?
Think You'll Do A Better Job Next Time?
No.
There Won't Be Any Next Time.
I'm Through Driving.
Um...I Tried To Kill You.
You Got Two Witnesses.
You Can Tell The Contest Board I Said It--
I Tried To Kill You.
I Won't Be Doing Any More Racing.
I Don't Really Care What You Do.
Dan, Don't. Please.
Dan.
Get The Hell Out Of Here.
But First I Got To Say This.
I Never Did That To A Man Before...
Run Him Off And Try To Kill Him.
Really, I Tried To Kill Somebody.
When It Happened, When You Were, Uh...
Going Over The Wall,
I Remember I Said To Myself,
Who Did That To Mccall?
Not You. You Couldn't Do That.
You Wouldn't Kill Somebody.
But I Knew It Was Me.
You See A Girl, And, Uh...
Gosh, Just Looking At Her Makes You Feel Better.
When You Touch Her,
She Feels Like Nothing Else You Ever Felt Before.
She Says She Wants To Be My Girl.
That's Not Enough.
She Can't Look At Anybody Else,
Can't Talk To Anybody Else,
She Can't Think About Anybody Else But Me.
And, Uh...
When I Started Seeing Pictures In My Mind,
Pictures Of, Uh...
You And Her...
I Was A Fool.
It's Not Because Of This Girl,
But Because Of...
Something In Me, Something...
I, Uh, I Don't Understand.
It's Not In Me Anymore.
I Lost Her, And, Uh...
I Lost My Ride.
And, Uh...
Well, Uh...
I'm Just Glad You're Alive, Mccall, That's All.
I, Uh...
Well, That's...
That's What I Came To Say.
I Wouldn't Blame You
If You Knocked Hell Out Of Me.
No Kidding. Go Ahead.
Come On.
Well, Uh...
That's What I Came For.
Mike!
Oh, Darling, Darling.
Thank You.
You're Crazy.
I Know...
'Cause I Love You.
I've Been, You Know, I've Been--
I Know. Don't Say It, Darling.
Don't Talk About Anything You Or I Did, O.K.?
O.K.
From Now On, We Start All Over Again,
Just You And Me, O.K.?
O.K.
The Only Thing We Don't Change
Is That We Love Each Other, O.K.?
O.K.
As We Near The End Of Lap 160
Of The Charlotte 400.
Here's Your Mike Marsh In The 28 Car.
Dan Mccall In Car Number 21,
Holding Down Second Place.
Ned Arp In Car Number 3
Has Just Passed Dan Mccall
To Take Over Second Place.
Arp Is Really Pushing.
This Could Be The Beginning
Of A Duel Between The Former Teammates
Of The Pat Kazarian Team.
Arp Has Come A Long Way,
Having Won Two Races In California
And One In Oregon.
Marsh Still Has A Lap Lead
And Less Than 40 To Go.
And Listen To This!
That Last Lap Was Run In 36 Seconds!
That Means Drivers Are Reaching Speeds
Of Nearly 175 Miles An Hour
On The Back Straightaway.
Arp Is Gaining On Marsh In The 28 Car.
He Just Lapped Two More Cars.
Arp Seems To Be Pushing Too Hard.
This Might Turn Into A Battle
Between Ned Arp And Mike Marsh.
But Marsh Knows Every Trick
To Hold Off The Driver On The Charge.
We'll Just Have To Wait And See.
How's It Going?
He's Running Second. He's--
Keep Your Eye On Ned Arp.
He's Really Charging, Doing A Fine Job Of Driving
As He Moves Down Through The Pack.
You Can Bet Marsh Is Watching Him All The Way.
Here's Trouble. Car Number 39 Lost Control.
Arp Has Lost Control.
He's End Over End Down The Straightaway.
Emergency Crews Are Moving In.
This Is The Most Spectacular Crash
I Have Ever Seen At Charlotte Raceway.
I Have To Go.
Find Out When A Plane's Leaving
And Get Me A Ticket.
We Can Only Hope Ned Arp Isn't Seriously Injured.
I Told Them I Didn't Want To See Anybody.
I Know.
They Told Me,
And I Waited A Week.
But You Had To Make Sure.
All Right. Take A Good Look.
That's Right. It's Gone!
It Went Out With The Rest Of The Hospital Garbage.
Coffee Grounds, Egg Shells,
A Lady's Kidney. Are You Satisfied?
You Can Tell Pat You Saw For Yourself. Go On.
Pat Said To Tell You--
I Know.
He's Sorry?
Sure, He's Sorry.
He Said To Tell You If You Need Anything--
Oh, Isn't That Nice.
Generous Old Pat.
He's Generous And He's Kind And He's Sorry.
Julie, You Sorry, Too?
Mm-Hmm.
That's One Of The Reasons Why I Came--
To Tell You That I'm Sorry.
And, Uh...
I Was Going To Ask You
To Let Me Stay.
But I'm Not Going To.
You're Going To Have To Ask Me.
You Can Say That After What I've Done?
How Can I Ask You With This?
You're Going To Have To.
Julie.
Don't Go, Please.
I Won't Go. I Promise.
I Won't Ever Go.
Oh, I Made A Fool Out Of Myself.
No, Don't Talk About It.
I Have To. What Will I Do?
You Can Do Exactly What You Want To Do.
How Can I Drive Like This?
You Can Drive. I Know You Can.
We're In Lap Number 48 And On Our Way
To A New Record Here At Riverside Raceway.
It's Dan Gurney In The 121 Car In First Place.
Ned Arp In The 27 Car, Running Second.
A Great Job Of Driving By Ned Arp
Going Through Turn 6.
Here's Mike Marsh In The 28 Car Running Fourth.
And Here's Dan Mccall In The Red 21 Car
Holding Down Fifth Place,
Slowly Working His Way Through The Pack
After Getting Off To A Real Slow Start.
Uh-Oh! Sam Stanley In Car Number 17
Has Started To Spin.
Sam Is Going Completely Around,
Partly Up The Bank And Taking Off The Track Markers.
There Goes Gene Davis In Car Number 5,
Off The Track And Into The Outfield.
A Beautiful Job Of Control.
All Other Cars Through The Turn O.K.
Uh-Oh! A.J. Foyt's Losing It In Turn Number 7,
Spinning Halfway Around, Traffic Going By...
And There He Goes, Heading Down The Straightaway.
A Really Beautiful Save On Any Man's Race Course.
Out Of Turn 9,
Billy Cantrell In The 53 Car
Down The Main Straightaway.
Into Turn 1, He's Going Too Fast.
He's Lost It. The Crowd Is Moving Back.
He's Up On The Bank. He's O.K.
Rod Tyler Off The Course
And Lost In A Cloud Of Dust.
Your Attention, Please.
Today's Race Is The First Of The Season.
The Next Nascar Championship Race
Will Be At Daytona Beach, Florida.
And The Week After That, Watkins Glen.
And Then The 500 At Daytona.
Not To Mention Tire Testing In Between.
It's A Hell Of A Way To Make A Living.
Look Out. A.J. Foyt Is Going Too Fast For Turn 9.
Looks Like He's Lost His Brakes.
Look Out! He's Heading For The Infield.
