Darrell Cartrip: Bob, my oil pressure's through the roof right now. If this gets
any more exciting, they're gonna have to tow me outta the booth!
Bob Cutlass: Right you are, Darrell. Three cars are tied for the season points
lead, heading into the final race of the season. And the winner of this race
Darrell, will win the season title and, the Piston Cup. Does The King, Strip
Weathers, have one more victory in him before retirement?
Darrell Cartrip: He's been Dinoco's golden boy for years! Can he win them one last
Piston Cup?
Bob Cutlass: And, as always, in the second place spot we find Chick Hicks. He's
been chasing that tailfin his entire career.
Darrell Cartrip: Chick thought this was his year, Bob. His chance to finally emerge
from The King's shadow. But the last thing he expected was... Lightning McQueen!

We're gonna crown us a new champion! [all cheering and whistling, Mia and Tia
screams]
Lightning McQueen: Checkered flag, here I come! [Suddenly, one of McQueen's rear
tires blows]
Darrell Cartrip: Oh, no! McQueen's blown a tire!
[crowd gasps]
Bob Cutlass: And with only one turn to go! Can he make it?
Lightning McQueen's crew: You fool! [A temperamental pittie grunts and knocks down
a cart of tires, McQueen is struggling to get to the finish line while his bare
wheel causes sparks on the track. The camera then shows the King and Chick as they
see McQueen's wheel on the TV screen with no tire.]
The King's Coach: [on radio] McQueen's blown a tire, McQueen's blown a tire! Go,
go, go, go, go, go!

slower with one tire lost, McQueen grunts as he falls and finally lands onto the

Darrell Cartrip: I don't believe it! I still don't believe it!
Bob Cutlass: [while Darrell is talking] The most spectacular, amazing
unequivocally, unbelievable ending in the history of the world! And we don't even
know who won!
Darrell Cartrip: Look at that! [The officials are then shown watching replays of
the finish at different angles. Meanwhile, one of the security officers, named
Richard Clayton Kensington, notices someone watching them with a camera.]
Richard Clayton Kensington: Hey, no cameras! Get outta here! [The screen shows from
a reporter's camera filming Kori Turbowitz with McQueen and his pit crew as the
Rust-eze pitties change his tires]
Kori Turbowitz: We're here live in Victory Lane, awaiting the race results. McQueen
that was quite a risky move, not taking tires.
Chuck: Tell me about it.
Kori Turbowitz: Are you sorry you don't have a crew chief out there?
Lightning McQueen's Crew: [laughs]
Lightning McQueen: [Chuckles] Oh, Kori, there's a lot more to racing than just
winning. I mean, taking the race by a full lap, where's the entertainment in that?
No, no, no, I wanted to give folks a little sizzle.
Chuck: Sizzle?
Lightning McQueen: Am I sorry I don't have a crew chief? No, I'm not. Cause I'm a
one-man show.
Chuck: What? Oh, yeah right.
Kori Turbowitz: [to the TV audience] That was a very confident Lightning McQueen.
Coming to you live from Victory Lane, I'm Kori Turbowitz.
Cameramen: [Kori then drives away, while the reporter tries to get McQueen's bolt
sticker on the TV screen. Not Chuck was blocking the view while changing one of
McQueen's tires] Hey, get out of the shot!
Lightning McQueen: Yo, Chuck. Chuck, what are you doing? You're blocking the
camera! Everyone wants to see the bolt!
Chuck: WHAT?!
Lightning McQueen: Now, back away.
Chuck: [grunts and slams his air wrench towards the ground] UGH, THAT'S IT!! Come
on, guys. [The Rust-eze pitties then leave, as one of the pitties drops his
sidewrench onto the ground]
Lightning McQueen: Ow! Whoa, team! Where are you going?
Chuck: WE QUIT, MR. ONE-MAN SHOW!
Lightning McQueen: Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay, leave. Fine! [laughs] How will I ever find
anyone else who knows how to fill me up with gas?
[The crowd then laughs]
The King: [to McQueen] If you figure that out, you just gonna be, okay?
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen clears throat] Oh, yeah, that is spectacular advice.
Thank you, Mr. The King! Oh!
Bob Cutlass: [on speakers] Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in Piston Cup
history...
Lightning McQueen: [revving his engine] A rookie has won the Piston Cup. [He then
drives through the wallpaper of the stage to the front] YES!!
Bob Cutlass: [on speakers] ...we've a 3-way tie.
[McQueen was shocked at this. The crowd then cheers and flashes their cameras as
confetti shoots out. Then The King and Chick come onto the stage]
Chick: [Laughs] Hey, McQueen, that must be really embarrassing, but I wouldn't be
worry about it, because I didn't do it! [laughing]
Bob Cutlass: Piston Cup officials have determined that a tiebreaker race between
the three leaders will be held in California in one week.
Chick: Well, thank you! Thanks to all of you out there! Thank you! [Whispering to
McQueen] Hey, rook, first one to California gets Dinoco all to himself. [Screaming
to the crowd] Aaaah! No, not me! No, you rock, and you know that!
[Then the screen shows fireworks exploding in the sky as a blimp named Al Oft
watches from above]
Whoo
Mm, yeah
When there's one day here, and the next day gone
We won't hesitate
Life is a highway
You're in my blood
Life is a highway
Lightning McQueen: [Then it shows. The whole song then completely ends as in the
evening, that same day, in the trailer it shows McQueen being massaged by brushes
as the phone rings.] Oh... Oh, I needed this... [presses a button to respond to the
phone call, which makes the brushes go into the roof of the trailer] Hello?
Harv US: Is this Lightning McQueen, the world's fastest racing machine?
Lightning McQueen: Is this Harv, the world's greatest agent?
Harv: And it is such a honor to be your agent and it almost hurts to take 10% of
your winnings and merchandising and ancillary rights in perpetuity anyway. What a
race! Huh, champ?! I did-- I didn't see it, but I heard you were great.
Lightning McQueen: [pressing buttons to change TV channels showing the finish of
the previous race] Um... Thanks, Harv.
Harv: Listen, they're giving you 20 tickets for the tiebreaker thing in Cali. I'll
pass 'em on to your friends. You shoot me the names. You let Harv rock it for you,
alright, baby?
Harv: Listen, they're giving you ur 20 tickets for this tiebreaker thing in LA.
I'll pass 'em on to your friends. Just give me the names and Harv will sort
everything out for you, okay, mate?
Lightning McQueen: Right! Friends! Yes, there's, um... [looks toward, who all just
shook their heads at him to tell him to not say anything about them at all]
Harv: [to McQueen] Okay, I get it, Mr. Popular, so many friends you can't even
narrow it down, hey, when you get to town, you better make time for your best
friend, you gotta break bread with your mishpocheh here.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, yeah, that would be great! We should totally...
Harv: Okay, I gotta jump, kid. L-Let me know how it goes. I'm out.
Lightning McQueen: [The call ends as the dial tone hums. Lightning McQueen sighs]
[then some melodic beeping and wheels squeaking are heard.] What?! A minivan?! [on
radio] Oh, come on, Mack, you're in the slow lane, this is Lightning McQueen you're
hauling here!
Mack: Just stopping off for a quick breather, kid. Old Mack needs a rest. [starts
to go onto the entrance to the where is going]
Lightning McQueen: Absolutely not. We're driving straight to all night till we get
to California, we agreed to it!
Mack: All night?! May I remind you, federal DOT regs sta-
Lightning McQueen: Come on, I need to get there before Chick get hang with Dinoco.
Mack: [sighs as he sees some sleeping trucks] All those sleeping trucks! [on radio]
Hey, kid, I don't know if I can make it.
Lightning McQueen: Oh, sure you can, Mack. Look, it'll be easy, I'll stay up with
you!
Mack: [to McQueen] All night?
Lightning McQueen: All night long.
[Later that night, we see McQueen, sleeping. McQueen snores]
[Then the screen shows Mack, who is trying to stay awake. His engines slow as his
eyes start to shut. Mack snores, wakes up, gasps and blubbers, grunts as he tries
to keep his eyes open. But they close again. Mack snores, and then wakes up, gasps
and blubbers for about five seconds, and tries to keep his eyes open]
[Then rap music is heard as the screen shows close-ups of the Delinquent Road
Hazards with their engines revving. DJ is playing a short song called Rollin' in
the Rear view. Wingo is shown opening his shades. Then the screen shows him, Boost
and DJ overtaking a car onto the left lane, then overtaking another car onto the
right lane. They then overtake a car named Duff Wrecks onto the middle lane. and
the left of another. The traffic's horns are heard beeping. Snot Rod, meanwhile,
was overtaking the first car onto the right lane and going along the same lane
until he overtakes Duff. After, he then starts to sneeze. Snot Rod sniffles, and
sneezes. Snot Rod's sneezing causes himself to do an instant acceleration, open his
throttle wide and shoot flames out of his headers, to which he then catches up to
the other tuners as they come towards Mack. DJ drives onto the right lane beside,
while Wingo and Boost drive onto the left lane. Snot Rod is behind Mack. Wingo then
notices his reflection on Mack's trailer, and turns his interior lights on. Wingo
chuckles, Boost and DJ get in front of Mack, who is still concentrating to not fall
asleep.]
Lightning McQueen: Mack! [He then drives back onto the lane, grunting as he drives
in front of some traffic honking their horns. McQueen continues driving faster and
overtaking some cars while trying to find Mack.] Mack! [He then comes across the
queue of trucks and a few cars. He then accelerates faster, trying to find which
truck is Mack.] Mack! Hey, Mack! Mack! [He notices a truck exiting the highway onto
another road, thinking that it is Mack.] Mack! Mack, wait for me! [His engine is
heard revving as he turns onto the same road that the truck is driving along. His
tires squeal as he slides onto the road, and he drives along the road with the
truck far ahead.] Mack! [The truck, whose face is not seen properly, then crosses a
level crossing without barriers. Afterwards, the bell starts to ring as the pair of
antique "upper-quadrant" wigwag crossing signals wave. McQueen then notice this and
look to their left to see a train coming. McQueen and then go faster as . The
train, named notices him and bellows his horn. McQueen get closer and closer to the
level crossing. Thanks to good timing, he crosses the level crossing just in time
before Trev could hit him.] Mack! Mack! [He then gets closer to the truck, who is
slowing down at a 3-way junction.] Mack! Mack... ...wait up! [coughs from the
truck's fumes] Mack. Mack! Mack! [He then drive alongside the truck, but its
trailer's side shows a sponsor for "Recycled Batteries". The screen then shows the
truck, who is actually a Peterbilt named Jerry Recycled Batteries and is not Mack
at all.] What? You're not Mack.
Peterbilt: Mack?! I ain't no Mack, I'm a Peterbilt for dang sake! [drives off] Turn
on your lights, you moron!
Lightning McQueen: Mack... the Interstate. [Then McQueen moves backwards and drive
left, forgetting that he was actually on the right road to the Interstate before
driving onto the wrong road. The screen moves to show that he is actually on Route
66, then it shows an aerial view of him driving along. He then drives past a
billboard where Sheriff was, with his roaring engine waking him up. Sheriff gasps
and wakes up]
Sheriff: Not in my town, you don't. [chases after McQueen with his siren wailing]
Lightning McQueen: [notices Sheriff] Oh, no. Oh, maybe he can help me! [Suddenly,
Sheriff is heard backfiring. McQueen thought that Sheriff was shooting at them.]
He's shooting at me! Why is he shooting at me?!
Sheriff: [backfiring] I haven't gone this fast in years. [Sheriff grunts as he
backfires again] I'm gonna blow a gasket or somethin'.
Lightning McQueen: Serpentine, serpentine, serpentine!
Sheriff: [noticing our hero's doing serpentine] What in the blue blazes?! Crazy
hot-rodder [he continues chasing McQueen and the whole team as his siren continues
wailing]
[The scene then shows Radiator Springs, with the song My Heart Would Know by Hank
Williams playing. It shows a montage of the different characters. Some bugs are
heard buzzing as they get attracted by the lights of Flo's V8 Cafe. Guido tries to
keep a tire upright on top of another tire lying flat on the ground, which a sign
being blown by the breeze keeps tilting it. Then it shows the statue of Stanley,
which Red the fire truck is seen watering flowers around the statue. Lizzie is seen
sleeping outside her curio shop. Ramone, Flo, Sarge and Fillmore are seen at Flo's
V8 Cafe as Fillmore was watching the intersection traffic light, which its amber
light is blinking]
Sarge: Incoming!
Fillmore: Whoa, man.
Lightning McQueen: No! [Sarge, Fillmore and Ramone drive out of the way. The fence
hits Ramone's body. Guido hides behind the sign]
Ramone: Hey, you scratch my paint!
Lightning McQueen: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Luigi: My tires!
[He then drives along the main road towards, with tires all over his body. McQueen
grunts as he spits out a tire in his mouth, Red gasps and drives into the building,
McQueen's continues driving along the road, spotting Stanley's statue. He screaming
and he then drives around the statue, while hitting Red's flowers. Red gasps at his
flowers being hit, the fence gets caught on Stanley's statue. McQueen notices, and
tries to move backwards to get away from the statue. His tires squealing, and the
cables vibrating as the statue starts to come off. Finally, the statue goes up into
the air. McQueen's stops moving, glad that the statue was gone. Suddenly, the
statue lands in front of him on the road. He screaming. He turns around and drives
away, while pulling Stanley's statue. The pole beneath the base was destroying the
road. He screaming and Flo, Ramone, Fillmore, Sarge and the whole of all watch as
McQueen screams goes past them. The statue continues damaging the road before
finally going up a ramp beside the road. The ramp splits in half as the statue
lands on some telephone wires. He grunting as he struggles to move, McQueen's then
lose his grip, and the force pulls his back. He ends up hanging from the telephone
wires as Stanley's statue flies through the air]
Fillmore: Fly away, Stanley. Be free! [Red gasps as the statue comes towards him,
and drives back into the courthouse, the statue lands back in its place, and the
water resumes shooting out. Red then looks with shock. The music resumes as Sheriff
drives slowly to McQueen who is still hanging from the telephone wires. Sheriff
panting heavily]
Sheriff: Boy, you're in a heap of trouble. [McQueen sighs and closes his eyes and
passed out]
Kori Turbowitz: [The next day, we see photographers at the Los Angeles
International Speedway watching Mack arrive.] We're live at the Los Angeles
International Speedway as the first competitor, Lightning McQueen, is arriving at
the track.
Cameramen: [The photographers are heard talking as they surround Mack.] McQueen,
how was the trip? Is it true he's gonna pose for Car girl? Lightning, what's your
strategy? [Mack's trailer door opens, with no one inside it. The all gasping and
take pictures with their cameras]
Mack: What? Did I forget to wipe my mud flaps?
[The screen then shows different news reporters reporting about McQueen's
disappearance, and Mack then notices that he and the whole of are missing.]
News: McQueen's driver arrived in California, but McQueen was missing. Race car
Lightning McQueen was reported missing. He scheduled to race an unprecedented...
[while the screen shows photographers interviewing Dusty and Rusty Rust-eze]
Sponsor stated they have no idea where he is.
[Chuki speaks in Japanese about McQueen's disappearance.]
Junior: I just hope Lightning's okay, I sure hate to see anything bad happen to
him.
Jay Limo: I don't know what's harder to find, Lightning McQueen or a crew chief
who'll work for him!
Sven: [German accent] Lightning McQueen must be found at all costs!
Chuck Manifold: They're all asking the same question: Where is McQueen?
Lightning McQueen: [The screen shows McQueen sleeping in the Radiator Springs
Municipal Impound that morning as he starts to regain consciousness.] [McQueen
sighs] Oh, boy. Oh... Where am I?
Mater: Morning', sleeping' beauty! [McQueen screams the screen then shows from
McQueen's point of view as he wakes up. We see Mater outside the impound gate.
Mater chuckling.] Boy, I was wondering' when you were gonna wake up!
Lightning McQueen: Take whatever you want! Just don't hurt me! [McQueen tries to
reverse, then he felt a bump and heard a thud. He notices a parking boot on his
tire, which it moves ahead as his tire was moving backwards.] The parking boot? Why
do I have a parking boot on? [The screen zooms out to show our heroes in the
impound.] What's going on here?! Please!
Mater: [McQueen tries to push the parking boot back, but it wouldn't go underneath
his tire. Mater chuckles] You're funny, I like you already. My name's Mater.
Lightning McQueen: Mater?
Tow Mater: Yeah, like "tuh-mater", but without the "tuh"! What's your name?
Lightning McQueen: You don't know my name?
Mater: Um, no, I know your name, is your name "Mater" too?
Lightning McQueen: What? Look, I need to get to California as fast as possible.
Where am I?
Mater: Where are you? Shoot! You're in Radiator Springs! The cutest little town in
Carburetor County. [looks around to see a few old buildings]
Lightning McQueen: Oh, great. Just great!
Tow Mater: Well, if you think that's great, you should see the rest of the town.
Lightning McQueen: You know? I'd love to see the rest of the town! So if you could
just open the gate, take this boot off, you and me, we go cruising, check out the
local scene---
Mater: Dad-gum! [gets ready to press the button for the gate]
Lightning McQueen: How'd that be, Tuhmater? [about to press the button]
Mater: Cool!
Sheriff: MATER! [Mater then stops, and reverses as Sheriff arrives. McQueen then
frown and some members of then feel sorry for Mater while some of them look
confused.] What did I tell you about talking' to the accused?
Mater: To not to.
Sheriff: [presses the button to open the gate] Well, quit your yapping' and tow
this delinquent road hazard to traffic court.
Tow Mater: [Mater whispering to McQueen's] Well, we'll talk later, Mater. [chuckles
as he gets behind McQueen] "Later, Mater." That's funny! [McQueen screams. He uses
his tow hook to grab McQueen's undercarriage]
Sheriff: [Then the screen skips to show the Radiator Springs Courthouse & Fire
Department from outside as Sheriff's voice is heard.] The Radiator Springs Traffic
Court will come to order!
Ramone: [Then the screen shows inside the building as McQueen and Mater enter the
courtroom, which most of the other Radiator Springs residents were inside and were
angry with McQueen for what he have done.] Hey, you scratched my paint! I ought
take a blowtorch to you, man!
Luigi: [Then the screen shows McQueen as he moves his tire up while getting pushed
by Mater into the courtroom to the accused space while the team followed him.] You
broke-a the road! You a very bad car!
Fillmore: Fascist!
Sarge: Commie!
Lightning McQueen: [to Sheriff] Officer, talk to me, babe. How long is this gonna
take? I gotta get to California, pronto.
Sheriff: Where's your lawyer?
Lightning McQueen: [scoffs] I don't know. Tahiti maybe. He's got a timeshare there.
Sheriff: When a defendant has no lawyer, the court will assign one to him. [to the
other residents] Hey! Anyone want to be his lawyer? [All of the residents move
back, except Mater.]
Tow Mater: Shoot, I'll do it, Sheriff!
[Mater moves beside McQueen and our heroes]
Sheriff: All rise! The Honorable Doc Hudson presiding.
Luigi: [Ramone moves his body up from his tires] Show Off.
Sheriff: May Doc have mercy on your soul.
[The door bangs as Doc Hudson comes in, which the screen shows him from his side as
he drives to his bench. McQueen gasps as he hears the door bang]
Doc Hudson: Alright, I wanna know who's responsible for wrecking my town, Sheriff.
I wanna his hood on a platter! I'm gonna put him in jail till he rots! No, check
that. [McQueen gulps. He gets on some ramps that move him up to the top of his
bench] I'm gonna put him in jail till the jail rots on top of him, and then I'm
gonna move him to a new jail and let that jail rot. I'm-- [notices McQueen and the
team, as McQueen does a nervous grin] Throw him out of here, Sheriff. I want him
out of my courtroom. I want him out of my town! Case dismissed.
Lightning McQueen: Yes!
Tow Mater: Boy, I'm purty good at this lawyerin' stuff.
Sally Carrera: [Then the door opens as Sally Carrera appears.] Sorry, I'm late,
your honor!
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen and turn around to see her, which McQueen instantly
falls in love with her.] [to himself McQueen whispers] Holy porsche! She's gotta be
from my attorney's office. [Sally then drives into the courtroom as our heroes turn
back to the front.] [to Sally] Hey, thanks for coming, we're all set. He's letting
me go.
Sally Carrera: [stops, and turns to McQueen] He's letting you go?
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, your job's pretty easy today. All you have to do now is
stand there and let me look at ya. Listen, I'm gonna cut to the chase. Me, you,
dinner. [reflects sunlight on his bolt sticker] Ka-chow! [The reflected sunlight
shines on Sally's eyes; Sally groans, grunts] I know, I get that reaction a lot. I
create feelings in others that they themselves don't understand. [stops reflecting
sunlight, revs his engine. Sally groans] Oh, I'm sorry. Did I scare you?
Tow Mater: Well, a little bit, but I'll be alright.
Sally Carrera: Okay, I'm gonna go talk to the judge.
Lightning McQueen: Do what you gotta do, baby. Oh, but listen, be careful. Folks
around here are not firing on all cylinders, if you know what I mean.
Tow Mater: [Then we see Mater, who is trying to reflect sunlight on his wing mirror
like what McQueen did with his bolt sticker earlier.] Ka-ching! [Then the sunlight
goes into his eyes.] [Mater groans]
Sally Carrera: [to McQueen] I'll keep that in mind. [to Mater] Hey, there, Mater.
Tow Mater: Howdy, Sally. [Then McQueen's smile turn to frown.]
Sally Carrera: Hi, folks! [to the other Radiator Springs residents, drives to Doc]
Folks: Good morning, Sally!
Lightning McQueen: [to Mater] Do you know her?
Tow Mater: She's the town attorney and my fiancée.
Lightning McQueen: What?
Tow Mater: [chuckling, smacks McQueen with his tire] Nah, I'm just kidding. She
just likes me for my body.
Sally Carrera: Doc, you look great this morning! Did you do something different
with your side view mirrors?
Doc Hudson: What do you want, Sally?
Sally Carrera: [Sally sighs] Come on, make this guy fix the road. The town needs
this.
Doc Hudson: No. I know his type. Race car. That's the last thing this town needs.
Sally Carrera: Okay, I didn't want to have to do this, Doc. But you leave me no
choice. [to the other citizens] Fellow citizens, you're all aware of our town's
proud history.
Doc Hudson: [to himself] Here she goes again.
Sally Carrera: Radiator Springs, the glorious jewel strung on the necklace of Route
66, the mother road! It is our job and our pleasure to take care of the travelers
on our stretch of that road.
Sarge: [in voice] Travelers? What travelers?
Fillmore: [in voice] Ignore him.
Sally Carrera: But how, I ask you, are we to care for those travelers if there is
no road for them to drive on? [to Luigi] Luigi, what do you have at your store?
Luigi: Tires.
Sally Carrera: And if no one can get to you?
Luigi: I won't sell any.... tires. I will lose everything!
Sally Carrera: Flo, what do you have at your store?
Flo: I have gas. Lotsa gas! [Mater and Ramone laugh on a joke with gasoline and gas
from farts]
Sally Carrera: Okay, boys, stay with me. And, and, Flo, what'll happen if no one
can come to your station to buy gas?
Flo: I'll go outta business and we'll have to leave town!
Sally Carrera: And what's gonna happen to all of us if Flo leaves town and closes
her station?
Folks: Without gas, we're done for!
Lizzie: What?
Sally Carrera: So, don't you think the car responsible should fix our road?
Lizzie: The only guy strong enough to fix that road is Big Al!
Ramone: Lizzie, Big Al left, like, 15 years ago.
Lizzie: Then why are you bringing him up, you lemon?
Sally Carrera: Oh, he can do it. He's got the horsepower. So, what do you want him
to do?
Folks: Fix the road!
Sally Carrera: Because we are a town worth fixing!
Folks: Yeah! [all cheering]
Doc Hudson: [honks his own horn, which represents banging a hammer] ORDER IN THE
COURT!!!! Seems like my mind has been changed for me.
Folks: Yeah!
Lightning McQueen: No!
Fillmore: Nice ruling.
Lightning McQueen: [groans to Sally] I am so not taking you to dinner.
Sally Carrera: [giggles] That's OK, Stickers. You can take Bessie.
Tow Mater: Oh, man, ye get to work with Bessie, I'd give my left 2-Lug Nuts for
somethin' like that.
Lightning McQueen: Bessie? Who's Bessie?
[The screen then skips to outside, where we see Bessie, who is a road-paving
machine that is not a living vehicle. Tar is heard gurgling. Doc is next to her,
with McQueen, the whole of and Mater.]
Doc Hudson: This here is Bessie, finest Road-Paving Machine ever built. [to
McQueen] I'm hereby sentencing you to community service. You're gonna fix the road
under my supervision.
Lightning McQueen: WHAT?! This place is crazy!
Tow Mater: [whispers to McQueen] Hey, I know this may be a bad time right now, but
uh, you owe me $32,000 in legal fees.
Lightning McQueen: What?
Doc Hudson: [to McQueen] So we're gonna hitch you up to sweet Bessie, and you're
gonna pull her nice.
Lightning McQueen: You're gotta be kidding me.
Doc Hudson: [to McQueen] You start there where the road begins, [drives to where
the road begins from the courthouse] you finish down there where the road ends.
Tow Mater: [Mater and the team get onto the road, facing towards the end of the
town, and has a long swirly crack. McQueen moves his tire up, and moves himself
forward so he can move with his parking boot still on. Mater looking at the damaged
road] HOLY SHOOT!!!
Lightning McQueen: Whoa, whoa, whoa! How long is this gonna take?!
Doc Hudson: Well, fella does it right, should take him about 5-days.
Lightning McQueen: 5-days?! But I should be in California schmoozing Dinoco right
now!
Doc Hudson: Then if I were you, I'd quit yappin' and start working! Hook him up,
Mater.
Tow Mater: Okay-dokey. [Mater tries to get McQueen's parking boot off as watched
him do that. Mater groaning. Finally, McQueen's boot comes off. Suddenly, he
quickly move away and into the distance.]
Lightning McQueen: FREEDOM!!!!
Tow Mater: [Doc and the whole team crossly looked at Mater, who was shocked.] Maybe
I should've uh hooked him up to Bessie...and then uh...then took the boot off.
[looks at the team]
[Then the screen shows McQueen driving away from Radiator Springs, even driving
past a billboard saying "Leaving so soon?"]
Flo: Is that what I think it is? [The camera then shows Van and Minny in the
distance, driving towards the town.]
Sally Carrera: Customers. Customers! Customers, everyone! Customers! Okay!
Lizzie: Customers?
Sally Carrera: [Then, as Sally is talking, we see Luigi and Guido hearing Sally and
are glad. Ramone then moves his body up. Mater gasps and drives to the crossroad.
Sarge and Fillmore start driving to their stores.] All right, everybody calm down
for a long time. Just remember what we rehearsed. Make sure your "Open, please come
in" signs are out. And you all know what to do. All right, nobody panics. Here we
go! [drives towards Van and Minny. The camera then shows Van and Minny driving
along the road, as they are lost trying to find the Interstate.]
Minny: Van, I just don't see any on-ramp anywhere.
Van: Minny, I know exactly where we are.
Minny: Yeah, we're in the middle of nowhere.
Van: Honey, please.
[Then Sally appears in front of them.]
Sally Carrera: Hello. Welcome to Radiator Springs, gateway to Ornament Valley.
Legendary for it's quality service and friendly hospitality. How can we help you?
Van: We don't need anything, thank you very much. [drives past Sally, to Van]
Minny: Whoa, honey ask her direction to the Interstate. [drives along, while Sally
follows. As Van and Minny drive along the road, they drive alongside the bumps
caused by Stanley's statue.]
Van: There's no need to ask for directions. Minny, I know exactly where we're
going.
Minny: [to Sally] He did the same thing on our trip to Shakopee. You know, we were
headed over there for the Crazy Days, and we...
Van: [chuckles] Okay, okay. Really. We're just peachy, okay?
Fillmore: What you really need is the sweet taste of my homemade, organic fuel.
Van: [chuckles] No, it doesn't agree with my tank.
Minny: We're just trying to find the Interstate.
Sarge: Good to see you, Soldier! Come on by Sarge's Surplus Hut for all your
government surplus needs.
Minny: Oh, honey, surplus!
Van: I think we have too much surplus.
Sally Carrera: I do have a map over the Cozy Cone Motel. And if you do stay, we
offer a free Lincoln Continental breakfast.
Minny: Honey, she's got a map.
Van: I don't need a map! I have the GPS. Never need a map again, thank you.
Flo: How 'bout somethin' to drink? Stop at Flo's V8 Café. Finest fuel on Route 66.
Van: No, we just top off.
Luigi: [juggles tires while Luigi is talking, and ends with most of them in a pile
with one standing up on top] And if you need tires, stop by Luigi's Casa Della
Tires, home of the Leaning Tower of Tires.
Minny: We're just trying to find the Interstate.
Ramone: But you do need a paint job man. Ramone will paint you up right. Hey,
anything you want! You know, like a flame job.
Minny: No, thanks...
Ramone: Maybe ghost flames! You like old school pinstripin'? Von Dutch style, huh?
[lifts his rear end up in front in Van and Minny gasping]
Minny: Oh, honey, look. Von Dutch.
Van: [laughs] Okay, no. [chuckles, and starts to drive away along with Minny] We're
gonna be going now, okay? [Then Lizzie puts a bumper sticker attached to her tire
onto Van's rear bumper. Van grunts and turns around towards Lizzie]
Lizzie: [laughing] A little somethin' to remember us by, okay?
Van: [laughs] Okay! [drives away along with Minny]
Sally Carrera: Come back soon, okay? I mean, you know where we are! [giggles] Tell
your friends!
Van: [Then the camera does a close-up of the bumper sticker, which shows Willy's
Butte and a message saying "Nice Butte - Radiator Springs", and zooms out. Van
chuckles] Okay! Yes. You bet.
Minny: Thanks again, folks. Bye-bye now.
Lightning McQueen: Psst! Psst! Hey! Hey, hey,hey! I know how to get to the
Interstate!
Minny: Oh, do ya?
Van: Minny, no.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, yeah,yeah. No, not really. But listen. I'm Lightning
McQueen, the famous race car. I'm being held heren against my will. [Van then grins
as Minny smiles at McQueen.] And I need you to call my team, so they can rescue me,
and get me to California in time for me to win The Piston Cup. Do you understand?
[Van and Minny just stand for about three seconds of silence. Then their locks
beep, their smiles turn to frowns, and they just leave.]
Lightning McQueen: No, no, no, no, no. No, It's the truth! I'm telling you! You
gotta help me! Don't leave me here!! I'm in hillbilly hell!! My IQ's dropping by
the second!! I'M BECOMING ONE OF THEM!!!
Sally Carrera: [Van and Minny disappear as McQueen yells, and "them" is echoed.
Sally sighs, and then talks to the other residents] Okay, don't worry. They know
where we are now. They're gonna tell their friends. You'll see.
Radio: And we'll be back for our Hank Williams marathon...
Sally Carrera: That's good. [as the other residents drive away]
Radio: [through the radio] ...after a Piston Cup update. Still no sign of Lightning
McQueen. Meanwhile, Chick Hicks arrived in California and today became the first
car to spend practice time on the track.
Chick: [through the radio] Yeah, well it's just nice to get out here before the
other competitors. You know, get a head start. Gives me an edge.
[McQueen is then shocked as Chick talks. Electronic music plays as he daydreams of
Chick instead being sponsored by Dinoco. First, we see Chick in front of Dinoco's
stage touching Tex Dinoco with his tire, as the camera zooms out to show them and
the Dinoco gang at the Los Angeles International Speedway laughing. Then we see
Chick overtaking The King in the race, as The King is shocked, as he overtakes The
King. Chick then crosses the finish line, and we then see him with his trophy and
two Dinoco girls beside him. Then it shows his paint being changed to blue,
removing most of his decals and replacing the Hostile Tank over Bank logo with
Dinoco's. It shows the text saying "The new face of" above Chick and Tex before the
text "Dinoco" covers the other text. Then the screen shows the text "The King"
changing to a logo of Chick with the text "Chick" and zooming out to show the
Dinoco helicopter Rotor Turbo sky winking on top of the stage with pictures of
Chick all over it along with his name and the text "Chick likes Dinoco". It then
shows Chick posing in the same studio as with McQueen in his previous daydream.
Then it shows Chick on the covers of the same magazines, and then it shows him with
Mia and Tia in Dinoco paint on the same red carpet being surrounded by the same
cheering crowd. Then it shows the text "Chick Thunder Hicks". It shows Chick flying
through the air. Then the screen shows two magnets pulled together and the text
"Chick Magnet" Then it shows Chick inside the same building near the Hollywood
Sign, which he is between Mia and Tia painted gold. Mia and Tia chatter and giggle
and then we see Mia and Tia pulled towards Chick like a magnet.]
Lightning McQueen: I'm done. Look, I'm finished. Just say thank you, and I'll be on
my way. That's all I gotta say.
Tow Mater: [Then the camera moves up into the air and shows the new road which now
looks incredibly bumpy and sloppy. Mater is seen beside it in the distance.] WHOO
HOO! I'm the first one on the new road! OH! [drives onto the road, and vibrates as
he moves over the bumpy tar, and several objects fall off him] It rides purty
smooth. [continues vibrating]
Sally Carrera: It looks awful!
Lightning McQueen: Well, it matches the rest of the town.
Sally Carrera: Oh!
[Red blubbers, sobs, and drives away]
Lightning McQueen: [screams] AH, OW, OW, OW, OW, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!
[hits the cacti]
Ramone: Oh, man! Ow!
Fillmore: Whoa. Bad trip, man.
Doc Hudson: [McQueen tries to reverse out of the cactus, but he couldn't budge.
Then Doc and Mater turn up to the cliff.] HEY!!!!!!!!!! Was that floating like a
Cadillac, or was that stinging like a Beemer? I'm confused.
Tow Mater: [chuckles]
Doc Hudson: You drive like you fix roads. [McQueen's frowns angrily] Lousy! [to
Mater] Have fun fishing, Mater. [drives off]
Lightning McQueen: [Mater swings his tow cable, and throws his hook towards
McQueen, which it grabs onto his rear end. McQueen gasps and Mater then pulls
McQueen out of the cactus.]
Tow Mater: I'm startin' to think he knowed he was gonna crash!
Lightning McQueen: [as he gets pulled up the side of the valley] Thank you, Mater.
Thank you.
[Then the screen shows McQueen scraping the tar off the road with a shovel, as the
other residents and watch him.]
Lightning McQueen: I can make a little turn on dirt. You think? [grunts as he
scrapes another bit of tar] No. And now I'm a day behind. I'm never gonna get outta
here!
Ramone: Hey, ése! You need a new paint job, man!
Lightning McQueen: No, thank you.
Fillmore: How 'bout some organic fuel?
Sarge: That freak juice?
Lightning McQueen: Pass.
Flo: Whoo! Watchin' him workin' is makin' me thirsty. [to Mater] Anybody else want
somethin' to drink?
Tow Mater: Nah, not me, Flo. I'm on one of 'em there special diets. [a few bits of
spit comes out of him as he says "special"] I'm a precisional instrument of speed
and air-matics.
Lightning McQueen: "You race like you fix roads." [groaning] I'll show him.
[groaning again] I will show him! [Then the screen shows at night time as Doc
drives towards his building named Doctor Hudson: Dr. of Internal Combustion. He
then looks to the right, which we see McQueen pulling Bessie at the start, while
Sheriff is watching him with his magnetic beacon on. Laughing sounds are made by
Bessie's engine as tar splats on McQueen shaking the tar off.] Aw, great!! I hate
it!! Hate, hate, hate, hate it!!!
Doc Hudson: [chuckles] Music. Sweet music. [drives into his building]
Sally Carrera: Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.
Lightning McQueen: Radiator Springs, a happy place!!
Bessie: [clucking] [Sally drives into her building at the Cozy Cone Motel as the
rest of all go into their tents to try to get some sleep despite fart noises and
McQueen's very loud complaining]
Lightning McQueen: [Then another slop of tar lands on McQueen.] Whoa, okay, Bessie
you think that funny? Great! I'M TALKIN' TO BESSIE NOW! I'M TALKIN' TO BESSIE!!!
Tow Mater: [Then the screen shows the next morning, and moves down to Sally exiting
her building and the whole of all coming out of their tents, all dressed in their
regular outfits. Then, they all hear Mater, who is heard laughing and cheering.]
Sally Carrera: Wow! [She and the team then went to the crossroad, to which it is
then shown that there is flat tarmac on the part of the road from the courthouse to
the end of the crossroad. Mater driving around on the tarmac]
Tow Mater: Mornin', Sally! Hey, look at this here fancy new road that Lightnin'
McQueen done just made!
Sally Carrera: Yes! Ahmm. Amazing! [Luigi and Guido are also seen, impressed at the
new tarmac. Then we see Ramone, who has changed his paint from purple to green.
Ramone driving on the new tarmac, lifts his front up]
Ramone: Yeah! [sighs and moves his front back down]
Flo: Oh, Ramone, Mama ain't seen you that low in years.
Ramone: I haven't seen a road like this in years.
Flo: Well, then let's cruise, baby.
Ramone: Low and slow.
Luigi: [speaking Italian] È Bellissima! It's beautiful! Guido, look, it's a like it
was paved by angels. Oh!!
Tow Mater: Oh, I tell ya what. I bet even the roads on the moon ain't this smooth.
Sally Carrera: Doc, look at this! Should a tossed him into the cactus a lot sooner,
huh?
Doc Hudson: Well, he ain't finished yet. Still got a long way to go.
[Sally, Doc and then turn around, as we notice that McQueen still has the pave the
rest of the road. Then the screen shows all of the other residents driving on the
tarmac. Luigi is being towed by Mater.]
Luigi: Guido, look at Luigi! [Mater lets go, and Luigi slides across the tarmac at
the crossroad. Luigi driving back and forth once across the tarmac, Luigi
chuckling] This is fantastico!
Sally Carrera: That looks like fun! Mater, I got dibs, next turn!
Lizzie: Hey, Luigi, this new road makes your place look like a dump.
Luigi: [groans] That crazy old devil woman. [sighs as he and Guido get shocked at
the look of their store] She's right!
Sally Carrera: [shrieks and sliding along the tarmac and back the other way]
Luigi: (weeping) Guido!
Doc Hudson: Huh! That punk actually did a good jab. [noticing Bessie on the other
road] Well, now... where the hack is he? [Then the screen shows Lightning McQueen
in the desert driving on the same dirt road used for the race track. Doc then comes
to Sheriff, who was watching McQueen.] Sheriff! Is he making another run for it?
Sheriff: No, no. He ran outta asphalt in the middle of the night, asked me if he
could come down here. All he's trying to do is make that there turn.
Lightning McQueen: [slides off the track and onto the dirt] NO NO NO NO! Aw, great!
[Doc laughs and driving back onto the track] Perfect turns on every track I've ever
raced on.
Doc Hudson: Sheriff, why don't you go get yourself a quart of oil at Flo's. I'll
keep an eye on him.
Sheriff: Well, thanks, Doc. I've been feeling a quart low. [drives back to Radiator
Springs]
[We then see McQueen again, with his engine revs as he still tries to make the
final turn. But again, he slides off the track onto the dirt.]
Lightning McQueen: AAH!!!!!
[His side moves towards the camera, which dust fills the screen. When it clears, we
see McQueen with a tumbleweed on his head and McQueen spits dust out. Doc then
appears in front of him as he moves the tumbleweed off.]
Lightning McQueen: Turn right to go left. [to Doc, drives away slowly back to
Radiator Springs] Mm... [He moves his front wheels right, but he then suddenly went
right.] OH! [He then drives off the side, stays still in midair for a second, and
falls down into the valley.] WHOA! [McQueen winds up in another cactus patch] OW!
Oh, that-- [Then, a cactus falls and crashes on top of McQueen.] ...........
OWWWWWWWWW!!!!!
[The screen shows McQueen, covered with little bits of cactus around him, as he
continues pulling Bessie along the road, while "Find Yourself" is playing.]
Lightning McQueen: Turn right to go left. Guess what. I tried it. You know what?
This crazy thing happened... I went right!
Lizzie: You keep talking to yourself, people'll think you're crazy!
Lightning McQueen: Thanks for the tip.
Lizzie: What? I wasn't talking to you!
[Then the screen shows Luigi and Guido as they decorate their store, with helping
them. Luigi is cleaning the windows from inside while are cleaning the windows from
outside, while Guido is holding two rollers dipped in green paint from two trays
and paints the wall beneath the windows. Sally then comes to them.]
Tow Mater: [grunts as he pulls his sign upright, then farts] Oh, Lord. [Then the
sign tilts to the other side. Mater laughs] Huh?
Sheriff: Mater! I need you to watch the prisoner tonight.
Tow Mater: Well, Dad Gum! Wait a minute. What if he tries to run again?
Sheriff: Just let him run outta gas and tow him on back. But keep an eye on him.
Tow Mater: Yes, sir! [closes one eye, and keeps the other open] Unh!
[Sheriff sighs and drives away]
Lightning McQueen: While I'm stuck here paving this stinking road, chick's in
california schmoozing Dinoco. My Dinoco. [feels something] WHOA WHOA WHOA! Who's
touching me?! [Guido then pops up beside him. He was spinning each of McQueen's
tires to get the cactus bits off them, and uses a spray can on the tires.]
Luigi: You have a slow leak. Guido, he fix. You make a such a nice new road. You
come to my shop. Luigi take a good care of you. Even though you not a Ferrari. [to
McQueen] You buy four tires, I give you a full size spare absolutely free!
Lightning McQueen: Look, I get all my tires for free.
Luigi: [chuckles and gasps] I like your style, eh? You drive the hard bargain.
Okay, Luigi make you a new deal. You buy one tire, I give you three for free! [The
screen shows Sally watching them, then she turns around to see Flo amazed with
Ramone cleaning a fence around a house beside Ramone's House of Body Art.]
Flo: Aw... Would you look at that! Ramone, Ramone.
Ramone: [chuckles]
Luigi: Then Luigi make you a new deal.
[Sally Carrera then looks towards Red cleaning the Leaning Tower of Tires with his
water, while McQueen and Luigi continue talking.]
Lightning McQueen: No, no, no, no. Deal me out. Pass. No, thank you. [The screen
then shows McQueen, Luigi, Guido.]
Luigi: No, no, no, no, no. This is it, my last offer. You buy one tire, I give you
7-a snow tire for all free! Done. You interested, you call me. You know where I am.
[Luigi and Guido then leave. McQueen exhales deeply. Suddenly, a burst of water is
shot out at McQueen, causing most of the cactus pieces on him to come off.]
Lightning McQueen: Stop! Let me--! [Then the water stops, as McQueen coughs. The
screen then turns around to show Sally Carrera and Red, who was shooting water at
McQueen to get him clean.]
Sally Carrera: [noticing a cactus piece on McQueen's hood] Oh, Red! You missed a
spot, see it right there? On the hood right there.
Lightning McQueen: No, no!
[Red then starts shooting water at McQueen again, struggling to get the cactus
piece off McQueen's hood.]
Lightning McQueen: NO! Stop! Stop! That cold! Help! Please stop! [Finally, the
cactus piece comes off, and Red stops. McQueen coughs and sputters]
Sally Carrera: Thanks, Red. [Red then leaves.]
Lightning McQueen: What was that for?!
Sally Carrera: Do you wanna stay at the Cozy Cone or what?
Lightning McQueen: Huh?
Sally Carrera: And if you do, you gotta be clean. 'Cause even here in hillibilly
hell we have standards.
Lightning McQueen: What, I--? I don't get it.
Sally Carrera: Nothing I just thought I'd say thank you for doing a great job. So I
thought I'd let you stay with me. I mean, not with me! But there. Not with me
there, but there in your own Cozy Cone. And I'd be in my cone, and it's...
Lightning McQueen: Wait. Wait, you're being nice to me.
Sally Carrera: I mean if you want to stay at the dirty impound, that's, that's
fine. You know, I understand you criminal types.
Lightning McQueen: No, no, no, no. That's okay. Yeah, the Cozy Cone. [looks at the
Cozy Cone Motel]
Sally Carrera: Eu, it's newly refurbished.
Lightning McQueen: [chuckles] Yeah, it's like a clever little twist the motel's
made out of caution cones, which, of course, cars usually try to avoid, now we're
gonna stay in them. [chuckles] That's funny.
Sally Carrera: Figure that all out on your own, did you? [reverses and turns
around, drives back to the motel] Cone number one, if you want.
Lightning McQueen: [groans and notices a tattoo on Sally Carrera's back] Hey, do I
spy a little pinstriping tattoo back there?
Sally Carrera: OH! [turns around and giggles, then reverses] That's just a-- [bumps
into a pile of cones, with one on her roof] OH! [McQueen and Sally laughing] Oh,
You saw that? [giggles] Yeah! Just gonna be going. [reverses to the door of the
building] Gonna... [the cone on her roof comes off as it hits the door] Yeah.
[McQueen then grins. The screen then zooms out to show Mater next to them.]
Tow Mater: [McQueen gasps as Mater starts talking] Ya know, I once knew this girl
doreen. Good-lookin' girl! Looked just like a jaguar, only she was a truck! Ya
know, I used to crash into her, just so I could spoke to her!
Lightning McQueen: What are you talking about?
Tow Mater: I don't know. Hey, I know somethin' we can do tonight, 'cause I'm in
charge of watchin' ya!
Lightning McQueen: No, Mater, I gotta finish this road, and I have to get out of
here.
Tow Mater: Well, that's all right, Mr. I Can't Turn On Dirt. You probably couldn't
handle it anyway.
Lightning McQueen: Whoa, whoa, easy now, Mater. You know who you're talking to?
This is Lightning McQueen. I can handle anything.
[Then the screen shows McQueen and beside Mater on top of a hill at night.]
Tow Mater: I don't care who you are, that's funny right there. [to the team, to
McQueen] Ah, you turn, bud.
Lightning McQueen: Mater, I can. I do even have a horn.
Tow Mater: Big guy
Lightning McQueen: I'm a big, guy!
Tow Mater: [clucking]
Lightning McQueen: Stop, Stop, Okay? Alright, I'll do something and honk so I have
a horn.
[Then the screen shows McQueen driving slowly towards a tractor. He stops in front
of it, and just watches. Tractor 3 snores, McQueen looks shocked, then he looks
towards and Mater, who grins and moves his tire towards the tractor. The camera
then shows from beneath the tractor's undercarriage as McQueen gets prepared to do
something. The screen then does a close-up on McQueen as he revs his engine loudly
and honks his horn. Tractor 3 wakes up. Then all of the other tractors wake up.
Tractors exclaim, and lean up all land on their backs. Then the tractors gurgle as
Mater, McQueen and look toward each other. Then the tractors all backfire, one by
one. After one second, the last tractor remaining backfires. Then Mater, McQueen
laugh. Then an angry moo is heard in the distance as they both stop laughing. The
screen then turns to show a bush, and some lights from behind as another moo is
heard.]
Tow Mater: ... That's Frank. [drives away, while our heroes are standing still]
[Then the bushes get shredded as Frank, a combine harvester appears and notices our
heroes. Frank bellows angrily]
Tow Mater: RUN!!! [continues laughing. Then the screen zooms out to show them
heading towards the fence. Our heroes then turn to the left as Frank continues
chasing them. Frank bellowing, Mater laughing. Frank is then seen from his side as
he gains on McQueen and the team.] RUN, HE'S GONNA GET YA! [The screen then shows
from our heroes' point of view as they all come towards another end of the field
where there was one piece in the fence, and the whole team drive through it.
McQueen screams and Frank stops as he comes towards the edge of the field, and
McQueen and the whole team stop and then drive away on the road with Mater back to
Radiator Springs. Mater laughing]
Sally Carrera: [Then the screen shows Sally inside the Cozy Cone Motel. Shadows
then appear moving on the wall. Sally gasping and notices the shadows] Customers!
[drives towards the door, turns on the neon lights, and notices a light saying "no"
going off and coming back on, turns the lights off, turns the lights on again, but
the "no" light was on before and turned off when the other lights turned on. Then
we see Mater, McQueen and in the distance driving, walking and fluttering along the
road.]
Tow Mater: Tomorrow night we can go look for the ghost light!
Lightning McQueen: I can't wait, Mater.
Tow Mater: Oh, yeah, I'm tellin' ya! [As Mater talks, the screen shows Sally, who
notices them, sighs, grins and drives back into the building. Then the screen shows
Mater, McQueen and the team again.] Oh, boy, you gotta admit that was fun!
Lightning McQueen: Oh, Yeah Yeah.
Tow Mater: Well, we better get ya back to the impound lot.
Lightning McQueen: You know, actually, Sally's gonna let me stay at the motel.
Tow Mater: Aw. Gettin' cozy at the Cone, is we?
Lightning McQueen: Oh, co-No, No, Are you kidding? Besides, she can't stand me.
[McQueen scoffs] And I don't like her, to be honest.
Tow Mater: Yeah, you probably right: "HEY, LOOK, THERE'S MISS SALLY!"
Lightning McQueen: [looking around] Where-Where?!
Tow Mater: [laughing] [McQueen groans] You're in love with Miss Sally!
Lightning McQueen: [As our heroes are talking, Sally then turns to see them from
inside the building.] No, I'm not.
Tow Mater: Yes, ya do.
Lightning McQueen: No way.
Tow Mater: Way.
Lightning McQueen: Come on, look...
Tow Mater: [turns around and drives backwards] You're in love with Miss Sally!
You're in love with Miss Sally!
Lightning McQueen: Okay, that's real mature Mater, real grown up.
Tow Mater: You love her! You love her, you love her! You love her, You love her,
You love her!
Lightning McQueen: Wait... [Mater laughs and noticing Mater driving backwards]
Tow Mater: Touch
Lightning McQueen: driving backwards stuff. You're gonna wreck on something.
Tow Mater: [stops moving] Shoot, I'm the world's best backwards driver! You just
watch this right here, lover boy. [drives backwards with his lights on, drives
towards one of the Cozy Cones]
Lightning McQueen: What are you doing?! Watch out, Look out! Mater?! [Mater then
drives around the cone.] Mater! [Mater laughs as he drives around a few more cones]
Mater! [Sally watches as Mater drives around the building. Finally, Mater drives
backwards onto the desert ground, stops, and starts spinning.] Hey, take it easy,
Mater!
Tow Mater: [screams happily. Then Mater stops spinning, and drives backwards into
the forest, laughing. Mater grunting and blubbering, and jumps high up into the air
in front of the full orange Moon]
Lightning McQueen: [Laughs] He's nuts.
Tow Mater: [driving back to McQueen and while still going backwards] No need to
watch where I'm goin'! [jumps and turns around as he stops in front of McQueen]
Just need to know where I've been. [turns his lights off]
Lightning McQueen: Whoa, that was incredible! How'd you do that?
Tow Mater: Rear view mirrors. We'll get you some, and I'll teach you if you want.
Lightning McQueen: [chuckles] Yeah, maybe I'll use it in my big race. [drives
along]
Tow Mater: What's so important about this race of yours, anyway?
Lightning McQueen: [stops moving, and turns around] It's not just a race. We're
talking about the Piston Cup! I've been dreaming about it my whole life! I'll be
the first rookie in history ever to win it. And when I do, we're talkin' big new
sponsor, with private helicopters. No more medicated bumper ointment. No more rusty
old cars.
Tow Mater: What's wrong with rusty old cars?
Lightning McQueen: Well, I don't mean you, Mater. I mean other old cars. You know?
Not like you. I like you.
Tow Mater: Nah, it's okay, buddy. [to McQueen] Hey, you think maybe one day I can
get a ride in one of 'em helicopters? I mean, I've always wanted to ride in one of
them fancy helicopters.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, sure.
Tow Mater: You mean it?
Lightning McQueen: Oh, yeah. Anything you say.
Tow Mater: I knew it. I knew I made a good choice!
Lightning McQueen: In what?
Tow Mater: My best friend.
[Then McQueen and the whole of smile at this.]
Tow Mater: See you tomorrow, buddy! [Mater then turns on his lights, swings his
hook, and drives backwards around McQueen and back to his home. Mater singing as he
drives backwards] McQueen and Sally parked beneath a tree, K-i-s-s somethin'-
somethin'-somethin'-t!
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen laughs. Then the team walk, flutter and drive toward
the Cozy Cones, as McQueen tries to go backwards and looks behind.] Whoa, whoa,
whoa. [We then see Sally as she watches them all going to their Cozy Cones.] Now
then... [looks around to find his cone] Number 1, number 1! [finds Cone number one]
Oh, Number 1! [drives into the cone and looks around as Sally comes to him.] Ha,
this is nice.
Sally Carrera: Hey, Stickers! [McQueen screams and Sally shrieks] I'm sorry!
Lightning McQueen: [turns around] Whoq! You scared me, you gotta be careful.
Sally Carrera: I scared myself scaring you scaring me.
Lightning McQueen: I mean, I wasn't like "scared" scared.
Sally Carrera: No, of course not. Not.
Lightning McQueen: I was more...
Sally Carrera: Just I overheard you talking to Mater.
Lightning McQueen: When? Just, just now? What, what did, what did you hear?
Sally Carrera: Oh, just something about a helicopter ride.
Lightning McQueen: Oh, yeah. Yeah, he got a kick out of that, didn't he?
Sally Carrera: Did you mean it?
Lightning McQueen: What?
Sally Carrera: That you'll get him a ride.
Lightning McQueen: Oh, who knows? I mean first things first. I gotta get outta here
and make the race.
Sally Carrera: Uh-huh. You know Mater trusts you.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, okay.
Sally Carrera: Did you mean that?
Lightning McQueen: What?
Sally Carrera: Was it just a "Yeah, okay", or "Yeah...okay" or"Yea-yeah, okay"?
Lightning McQueen: Look, I'm exhausted. It's kinda been a long day.
Sally Carrera: Yeah, okay. Good night. [turns around and drives back to the
building]
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen grunts as he remembers what asked him to do] Ah...,
thank you.
Sally Carrera: [Sally then stops, and turns around.] What did you just say?
Lightning McQueen: You know, thanks for letting me stay here. It's nice to be out
of the impound, and this is... It's great. Newly refurbished, right?
Sally Carrera: Yeah.
Lightning McQueen: Good 'night.
Sally Carrera: Good night. [drives back to her building, Sally giggles. Then
McQueen presses a button to close the door on the cone.]
[The next morning, we hear an off-screen rooster crowing and we see the United
States flag moving up to the top of a pole as a reveille plays. The screen then
changes shot to the ground to show Sarge, who had raised the flag up.]
Sarge: [salutes with his antenna. Then Sarge's bugle reveille gets interrupted by
Jimi Hendrix's rendition of "The Star-Strangled Banner" being put on by Fillmore.]
Will you turn that disrespectful junk off?!
Fillmore: Respect the classics, man. It's Hendrix.
[Then the screen shows inside McQueen's cone, where he is still sleeping. McQueen
groans, then breathes rapidly and mutters. Fast-paced electronic music plays as
McQueen mutters, which it is shown that McQueen was dreaming of competing in the
final race with The King and Chick, only that it was actually the Motor Speedway of
the South circuit, not the Los Angeles International Speedway. Suddenly, Frank
appears on the track, driving behind the three racers. Frank growling and Chick
screaming. All three racers get shocked at seeing Frank. The King drives off the
track, Chick gets shredded by Frank's shredders. Then McQueen slides off the track.
Frank crosses the finish line as the camera zooms in on Dexter Hoover's checkered
flag and shows Frank on stage with his Piston Cup trophy, Tex and the Dinoco Girls.
Two of the Dinoco Girls, who are on trophy models with discs on top, kiss Frank on
his cheeks. Frank screaming loudly. Then the screen shows McQueen being surrounded
by tractors, which one of them licks him. Tractor mooing. Then the screen shows
back in the present, where McQueen wakes up from his dream.]
Lightning McQueen: No! [gasping] [Then an alarm beeps as a model car pops in and
out of a miniature cone alarm clock.] I gotta get outta here! Hey, have you seen
the Sheriff? [The screen shows inside Doc Hudson's building as McQueen and come in,
notices Sheriff's rear, as Sheriff is on a ramp up in the air] Oh! Oh, my gosh. Oh!
Doc Hudson: [The screen turns around as it shows that Doc Hudson was sorting
something on Sheriff's undercarriage. Doc turns around] Hey, what are you doing?!
Sheriff: Get a good peak, City Boy?
Lightning McQueen: [Stutters] I, a.. a.. I just need my daily gas ration from the
Sheriff.
Doc Hudson: [angrily] Wait for him at Flo's, now get outta here.
Lightning McQueen: I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET OUTTA HERE FOR 3 DAYS! [McQueen and then
leave the building.]
Sheriff: Hope you enjoyed the show! [McQueen grunts in anger as he kicks a can,
which goes into a garage in the side of Doc Hudson's building, and we hear the
sounds of objects falling down. McQueen and the team stop moving as they hear this.
McQueen moans. Then the screen shows inside the garage as McQueen opens the doors,
and he and the whole of enter. McQueen notices all of the boxes on the floor beside
him]
Lightning McQueen: [Chuckling] Whoa ho, Doc. Time to clean out the garage, buddy,
come on. [Then our heroes notice something near the window. They turn towards it,
and it turns out to be a Piston Cup trophy. They look up to see that the text on
the bottom says "Hudson Hornet, Champion, 1951".] What? He has a Piston Cup? [Then
they look to see another Piston Cup trophy behind a few boxes. They push the boxes
aside, and see a third trophy as well along with four old racing tires with red
hubcaps.] Oh, my gosh. Three Piston Cup? [They look at the text on the two
trophies, which say that Doc was the champion of 1952 and 1953. Then they look to
see a newspaper beside saying "Third Piston Cup Win! Hudson Hornet champion for all
time" and showing a picture of Doc with the racing number 51 and the text "Fabulous
Hudson Hornet" and a few other decals.]
Doc Hudson: Sign says stay out. [McQueen gasps upon hearing Doc's voice]
Lightning McQueen: [They all reverse and see Doc standing grumpily outside the
door.]You, You've three Piston Cups. How could you have--? [Doc drives in]
Doc Hudson: I knew you couldn't drive. I didn't know you couldn't read. [as Doc
pushes our heroes outside]
Lightning McQueen: You're the Hudson Hornet!
Doc Hudson: Wait over at Flo's, like I told you!!
Lightning McQueen: Of course. I can't believe I didn't see it before! You're The
Fabulous Hudson Hornet! You still to hold the record for most wins in single
season! Oh, we gotta talk. You gotta show me your tricks. Please.
Doc Hudson: I already tried that.
Lightning McQueen: And you won the championship three times! Look at those
trophies!
Doc Hudson: You look. All I see is a bunch of empty cups. [closes the doors.
McQueen frowns]
["Behind the Clouds" plays as the screen shows the other residents, except Ramone
and Sally, at Flo's V8 Cafe.]
Fillmore: You know, some automotive yoga could really lower your RPM's, man.
Sarge: Oh, take a car wash, hippie.
Flo: Yeah, look at my husband, y'all. WHOO! That's your color!
[Ramone shows up while Flo is talking, having yellow paint and a bit of purple and
his orange and yellow flame on his sides.]
Lightning McQueen: No no no no no, it's true! He's a real racing legend. He's The
Fabulous Hudson Hornet!
Flo: Fabulous? I never seen Doc drive more than 20 miles an hour. I mean, have you
ever seen him race?
Lightning McQueen: No, but I wish I could have of... They say he was amazing, he
wins three Piston Cups!
Tow Mater: [spits out on his drink] He did what in his cup?!
Sheriff: I think the heat's starting to get to the boy!
Lizzie: Well, I'll say! Look how red he is! [McQueen frowns]
Ramone: Yeah, I think he needs a new coat of poly, man.
Tow Mater: Are ya sick, buddy?
Sheriff: You are looking a little peaked.
Ramone: Yeah, he needs a new coat of poly for sure!
[Then the screen shows Sally pressing a foot pedal attached to one of the fuel
dispensers, causing the pump to go into McQueen's fuel door and pump fuel into him.
The gas bell rings as the screen shows the fuel dispenser with the gallons of fuel
and total sale.]
You settled down and you built a town and made it live
In our town
Lightning McQueen: How great would it have been to see this place in its heyday!
Sally Carrera: Oh, I can't tell you how many times I've dreamed of that. But one of
these days, we'll find a way to get it back on the map.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah. [to Sally] Hey, listen, thanks for the drive. I had a
great time. It's kinda nice to slow down every once in a while.
Sally Carrera: You're welcome. [drives back to the Cozy Cone Motel]
[Suddenly, Mater rushes towards our heroes, looking worried.]
Tow Mater: Hey, listen, listen! If anybody asks you, we was out smashin' mailboxes,
okay?! [drives away]
Lightning McQueen: [chuckling] Wha... What?
[Suddenly, they hear a rumble. Then they look at the other end of the road to see
what it is. The camera turns around to show that end of the road as a stampede of
tractors appears driving towards the town. Tractors mooing. McQueen and the whole
team drive and jump off the road just as the tractors come towards them. The
tractors drive through the town, as Flo, Sarge, Fillmore and Sheriff notice them
from Flo's V8 Cafe. We then see Ramone using paint to spray the markings on the
road. Red is watering his flowers. Ramone noticing the tractors]
Luigi: No, no, no, no, get out of the store! [notices another tractor munching on a
radial tire] Hey?! DON'T EAT THE RADIAL! Here, take-a the snow tires. [nudges a set
of snow tires. We then see McQueen and the whole of arriving at the scene as
Sheriff, Fillmore, Sarge and Mater drive around the town, with Sheriff chasing one
of the tractors, another tractor between Fillmore and Sarge as they drive around,
while Mater is not chasing a tractor.]
Sheriff: MATER!
Tow Mater: I wasn't tractor-tippin'!
Sheriff: THEN WHERE DID ALL THESE GOL-DURN TRACTORS COME FROM?!
Fillmore: [McQueen laughs, exclaiming] WHOA, BOY! WHOA!
Lightning McQueen: [noticing a tractor driving away from the town] Hey! Hey, guys,
There's one going this way! [pause] I got it! [McQueen and the whole team then
follow the tractor, who is driving towards Willy's Butte.] Come here, little
tractor, come here. [The tractor then stops.] Yeah, that's a good tractor. [But the
tractor then moves away.] No, no, no, no, come here. [But the tractor just drives
away.] What are you doing? You're not supposed to go wandering off all--[notices
Doc Hudson on the track]--alone. [Then the whole of all notice Doc on the track, as
well. The screen then shows McQueen and the whole team as they get closer to a
distance from the track, while the tractor drives back towards the town. McQueen
noticing that Doc has his racing tires on] What are you doing with those old racing
tires? [The screen does a closeup of Doc's side to show us one of his racing tires.
It then moves to on the road to show him still standing there. Doc sighs heavily]
[McQueen whispering] Come on, Doc, drive. [Doc looks towards the end of the track,
then revs his engine. McQueen and smile as the camera does a closeup on Doc's
front, the lining on his trunk and side, his rear, and his front and eyes, and he
then sets off. Our heroes watch him happily. Doc drives along the hillside beside
the first curve. As he drives along the next straight, our heroes get shocked as he
comes towards the final curve where McQueen slid off before. Doc then does an
opposite lock, where he turns his body to the left, and turns his wheels right
while going around the curve perfectly. Doc then stops as he approaches the finish
line, with the dust covering the camera for a few seconds until it shows him
looking happy.]
Doc Hudson: [sighs heavily] Yeah.
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen and the whole team come toward Doc.] Wow! [noticing our
heroes] You're amazing! [But Doc just angrily drives away. McQueen coughs from the
dust] What are you doing? Doc, wait! [McQueen and the whole of then follow Doc as
they arrive back in Radiator Springs. As Doc goes left on the crossroad back to his
garage, McQueen and the whole team stop as the tractors drive along in a lineup
with Mater behind. Tractors mooing. Mater hitting the back tractor with his hook]
Tow Mater: Giddy-up right in there! Come on, Rusty. WHEE-HE!
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen and the whole of eventually catch up with Doc as he
drives into his garage.] Doc, hold it! Seriously, your driving's incredible!
Doc Hudson: Wonderful. Now, go away.
Lightning McQueen: [as he and the whole team drive into the garage] Hey, I mean it.
You've still got it!
Doc Hudson: I'm asking you to leave.
Lightning McQueen: Come on. I'm a race car, you're a much older race car, but under
the hood you and I are the same.
Doc Hudson: We are not the same! Understand? Now, get out. [drives out of his
garage]
Lightning McQueen: How could a car like you quit at the top of your game?
Doc Hudson: [pauses] You think I quit? [Doc then presses a button on the garage
floor to turn on a light beside our heroes, who then look to see a newspaper's
front page on the wall saying "Crash! Hudson Hornet out for season".]
Lightning McQueen: Right. Your big wreck in '54.
Doc Hudson: They quit on me, when I finally got put together, I went back expecting
a big welcome, you know what they said? "You're history", moved right on to the
next rookie standing in line, there was a lot left in me, I never got a chance to
show 'em, I keep that, to remind me never to go back, I just never expected that
that world would find me here.
Lightning McQueen: Hey, look, Doc, I'm not 'em.
Doc Hudson: Oh, yeah?
Lightning McQueen: No, I'm not.
Doc Hudson: When is the last time you cared about something except yourself, hot
rod? You name me one time. And I will take it all back. [McQueen then feels
ashamed.] Uh-huh? I didn't think so. [to McQueen, who then feels ashamed again]
These are good folk around here, who care about one another. I don't want 'em
depending on someone they can't count on.
Lightning McQueen: Oh, like you? You've been here how long and your friends don't
even know who you are? [Doc then looks hurt at McQueen's fact.] Who's caring about
only himself?
Doc Hudson: Just finish that road and get outta here! [drives away]
[The screen shows Radiator Cap Mountain and Cadillac Range the next morning, as the
same reveille Sarge uses is heard playing. It is again interrupted by Fillmore
playing "The Star-Strangled Banner".]
Luigi: Four new tires! Grazien, Mr. Lightning. [gives a hug] Grazien!
Flo: [Sally then arrives, feeling glad as she sees McQueen.] Would you look at
that!
Luigi: Our first real customers in years! I am filled with tears of ecstasy, [While
Luigi is talking, McQueen winks to and Sally, who is then shown smiling. Doc then
appears, starting to feel angry hen he sees McQueen.] for this is the most glorious
day of my life!
Lightning McQueen: [as Luigi presses a button to make the car lift he is on go up]
Alright, Luigi, give me the best set of black walls you've got.
Luigi: [releases the button, making the lift go back down] NO,No,No,No! You don't-a
know what you want. Luigi know what you want. [drives to a couple of shelves, with
one holding blackwall tires, and another being covered by a curtain] Black wall
tires. They blend into the pavement. But-a this: [presses a button to pull the
curtain, showing whitewall tires] "White-Wall Tires"! They say, "Look at me! Here I
am! Love me."
Lightning McQueen: Alright, you're the expert.
Luigi: [chuckles and Doc snarls and drives away]
Lightning McQueen: Oh, and don't forget the spare.
Luigi: Perfetto. Guido!
Guido: Peet stop!
[Guido is then shown holding his wheel gun, which is heard whirring as Chuck
Berry's version of "Route 66" plays. Luigi is seen holding a flag up, attached to
his antenna. He holds it up a bit more, which Guido make the wheel gun whir. Luigi
then moves the flag down, and Guido then gets to work on unfastening the bolts on
McQueen's tires, as Luigi dodges one of the tires going through the air. When Guido
is finished putting the new tires, McQueen is shown looking at them in a mirror.]
Well if you ever plan to motor west Just take my way, that's the highway that's the
best
Luigi: [chuckling] What did Luigi tell you, Huh?
Lightning McQueen: Wow, you were right! Better than a Ferrari, huh?
Luigi: [frowns] Eh, no.
Get your kicks on Route 66
Lightning McQueen: [McQueen then frowns, and then the screen shows him and the
whole team with Fillmore at the Taste-Inn, drinking some organic fuel.] Wow! This
organic fuel is great! Why haven't I heard about it before?
Fillmore: It's a conspiracy, man!! The oil companies got a grip on the government!!
They're feeding us a bunch of lies, man!
Lightning McQueen: Okay, I'll take a case.
Well it goes from St Louis, Joplin, Missouri Oklahoma City looks ooh, so pretty
You'll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico Flagstaff, Arizona don't forget Winona
Kingsman, Barstaw, San Bernadino
[The screen then shows from McQueen's point of view as he looks around with night-
vision goggles on, and Sarge is seen. The screen McQueen as the goggles move up,
then it shows Sarge hooked to some surplus with a note saying, "Guaranteed, no
tailgaters." The screen then shows a close-up of a snow globe with Radiator Springs
Curios and Knick in it. The screen zooms out to show McQueen and looking at it with
Lizzie. It then shows some bumper stickers and other souvenirs. Lizzie is then
shown putting some onto McQueen. McQueen yelps as Lizzie sticks on the third
sticker. The screen then shows Ramone inside his shop, holding a paint hose. Ramone
chuckles. McQueen is then seen, with covers for his tires, and breathes in deeply
and closes his eyes as Ramone starts to paint him. Ramone sighs. As Ramone does a
shade on a lightning bolt shape. The screen then shows the other townsfolk outside
at sunset. Mater noticing Sally]
Oh, Yeah.
Ka-Chow.
Lightning McQueen: [posing] POW! What do you think? Radiator Springs looks pretty
good on me.
Sally Carrera: [giggles] I'll say. [purrs as McQueen continues revving his engine]
Ka-chow. You're gonna fit right in in California. Oh, my goodness, it looks like
you've helped everybody in town.
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, everybody except one.
[Sally is shown with a happy look.]
Do-roo-do-do, sh-boom
If you will tell me I'm the only one that you love
Something is on my mind
Sh-boom, and tell me, darling, I'm the only one that you love
Lizzie: ...and again and I said, "no," and he asked me again, and I said, "no..."
[Sally giggles as she notices McQueen stepping sideways while with Lizzie] ...but,
oh, he was a persistent little burger for a two-cylinder... [continues driving,
while McQueen stops and turns around] ...finally I said, "alright, one little
drive..." [McQueen looks to see the other townsfolk still cruising. Suddenly, Mater
grabs him with his tow hook.]
Lightning McQueen: OH!
Tow Mater: [laughs, "Dah ha ha ha ha ha!" tows him to Sally, and lets go]
Lightning McQueen: Hey!
Sally Carrera: Thanks, Mater.
Tow Mater: Good evening, ya two! [McQueen and Sally then look at each other. Lizzie
standing next to Stanley's statue]
Lizzie: Oh, Stanley, I wish you could see this. [McQueen and Sally then touch each
other's front. Flo noticing something]
Oh, life could be a dream Life could be a dream, sweetheart Do-roo-do-do, sh-boom
Do-roo-do-do, sh-boom Do-roo-do-do, sh-boom Do-roo-do-do, sh-boom Do-roo-do-do, sh-

boom, if I could take you up to paradise up above Sh-boom, and tell me, darling,
I'm the only one that you love Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Flo: Is that what I think it is?
Sally Carrera: Oh, I don't know, Flo. I haven't had a chance to find out. [both her
and McQueen close their eyes] But I am going to find out. Hello.
Flo: Not that. That.
Sally Carrera: [Everyone then looks into the distance to see lots of headlights
approaching. Sally gasping] Customers?
Flo: Customers, everybody! And a lot of them! You know what to do, just like we
rehearsed!
Tow Mater: [Suddenly, a blue light shines on McQueen. A townsfolk gasp] It's the
Ghost-Light!
Kathy Copter: [shown to be shining the light] We have found McQueen! We have found
McQueen!
Cameramen: [It is then shown that the people who have arrived are actually the
press, coming towards McQueen and surrounding him, flashing their cameras.]
McQueen, over here, kid!
Lightning McQueen: Oh, wait......Excuse me.
Cameramen: Is it true you've been in rehab?! Did you have a nervous breakdown,
McQueen?!
Lightning McQueen: I'm sorry, what?
Cameramen: McQueen's wearing whitewalls! Are the tires you wearing are turning
balding?!
Sally Carrera: Stickers, McQueen!
Cameramen: [to Mater] Was Lightning McQueen your prisoner?!
Tow Mater: Shoot, no, we're best buds! I ain't braggin' or nothin', but I was in
charge of huntin' him down if he tried to escape.
Lightning McQueen: Sally, Sally!
Kori Turbowitz: McQueen, will you still race for the Piston Cup?!
Sally Carrera: Stickers?!
Lightning McQueen: Sally!
Cameramen: Come on, give us some bolt! [Suddenly, a horn honks, and the press clear
the way for Mack.]
Mack: YOU'RE HERE! Thank the manufacturer, you're alive!
Lightning McQueen: Mack?!
Mack: [Mack turning around] You're here! I can't believe it! [Sally then watches as
she notices the picture on the side of Mack's trailer. Mack chuckles to McQueen]
You are a sight for sore headlights! I'm so sorry I lost you, boss. I'll make it up
to you...
Lightning McQueen: Mack, I can't believe you're here!
Harv: Is that the world's fastest racing machine?
Lightning McQueen: Is that "Harv"?
Mack: Yeah, he's in the back. [splits from his trailer, and McQueen turns around to
the trailer door]
Houser Boon: Show us the bolt, McQueen!
Mack: [drives towards the press, and angrily] GET BACK, YOU OIL-THIRSTY PARASITES!
Houser Boon: Hey, where's the old McQueen?!
Mack: Actually, this is my good side here. [drives to a spot between McQueen and
the press]
Cameramen: Show us the bolt!
Lightning McQueen: Harv! Harv!
Cameramen: Give us the bolt!
Lightning McQueen: [The trailer door then opens, showing no one in the trailer.]
Harv?
Cameramen: Come on!
Harv: [on the phone, as it pops out] Kid, I'm over here!
Lightning McQueen: How you doing, buddy?
Harv: My star client disappears off the face of the earth! How do you think I'm
doing?!
Lightning McQueen: Harv, I can explain...
Harv: I'm doing great! You're everywhere, baby, radio, TV, the papers! You can't
buy this kind of publicity! What do you need me for?! That's just a figure of
speech by the way you signed a contract. Where are you?! I can't even find you on
my GPS.
Lightning McQueen: I'm in this little town called Radiator Springs. You know Route
66? It's still here!
Harv: Yeah, that's great, kid. Playtime is over, pal. While the world's been trying
to find you, Dinoco has had no one to woo. Who are they gonna woo?
Lightning McQueen: [whispering] Chick.
Harv: Bingo, in fact, check out what's on the plasma right now.
[The TV in McQueen's trailer then shows some photographers with Chick, who now has
a thundercloud, lightning bolt and "C" between his tire and front, and is seen with
Mia and Tia, who have green paint and "C" merchandise.]
Bob Cutlass: [The screen then shows a hill and goes over it to show the Los Angeles
International Speedway. Bob and Darrell are heard talking as Al Oft flies over,
along with the spectators coming into the circuit.] Hello, race fans, and welcome
to what has become, quite simply, the biggest event in the history of racing. A
three way battle for the Piston Cup!
Darrell Cartrip: Bob, there's a crowd of nearly 200,000 cars here at the Los
Angeles International Speedway. Tickets to this race are hotter than a black
leather seat on a hot summer day!
Bob Cutlass: The King, Chick Hicks and Lightning McQueen in a 200 laps, winner-
takes-all, tiebreaker race. [Then the screen fades to a different shot and moves to
Darrell and Bob, who are in front of a couple of spectators, along with Todd the
Pizza Planet truck and Elvis.]
Darrell Cartrip: You know I got a lotta miles on me, but let me tell you somethin'
buddy. I never thought I'd see anything like this. Wow! Man, this is exciting! [The
screen then shows several closed signs on different buildings as Bob is talking,
such as a person turning a sign from "Open" to "Closed", the sign for the East
Honkers Shopping Mall saying "Closed for race", and Emery ville's sign showing a
label saying "Closed for the race", and at the end of Bob's line, the screen shows
some trucks and drivers watching the race on TV.]
Bob Cutlass: In fact, the country has almost shut down, to watch what many experts
are calling the race of the century. [The King's pit crew have finished putting a
new set of tires on him, when Junior appears.]
Junior: Hey, King! Good luck in your last race. You've sure been an inspiration to
me.
The King: Thanks, Junior. Appreciate it.
Lynda Weathers: Hey, be careful out there, okay?
The King: Yeah, mam. [Then the screen shows Chick with the press again, with Mia
and Tia behind him.]
Mia: Oh! He's so hot!
Chick: [while the photographers are talking] Oh, yeah. You wanna know the forecast?
I'll give you the forecast. A 100 percent chance of THUNDER! [the press take
pictures as he poses] Ka-chicka! Ka-chicka! Say it with me! [the press join in] Ka-
chicka! Ka-chicka! Ka-chicka!
[Meanwhile, a security officer named Marco Axelbender notices Fred while checking
all of the spectators with another security officer.]
Security: [to Fred] Hey, you! No admittance without a garage pass.
Fred: Oh, it's okay. Lightning McQueen knows me!
Andretti: [coming up with Patty] Hey, Marco, it's a beautiful day for a race, isn't
it?
Security: Absolutely, Mr. Andretti.
Andretti: [Fred chuckles] And good morning to you uh [looks at Fred's license
plate] Fred.
Fred: Mario Andretti he knows my name! [to Marco] You gotta let me in now!
Security: Sorry, pal.
[The screen then moves and zooms in on Mack's trailer as the press surround it.
McQueen's voice is heard.]
Small Airplane: Uh-oh [Small airplane and flies out of the way. The jets then fly
through the skywriting and over the circuit, where the crowd is cheering and
laughing upon seeing them. Coriander Wide track giggles upon seeing them, wearing a
Marco toy on her antenna. Two of the jets then fly away in different directions, as
the screen then shows Artie and another announcer looking at the different
cameras.]
TV Crew: Nelson! Zoom in. Ready, 16? Take 16. [One of the TV cameras then changes
to show McQueen on the track with Chick and the King, as they warm up while behind
Charlie Checker. While Bob and Darrell are talking, the cameramen aim their cameras
at McQueen.]
Bob Cutlass: And there he is; "Lightning McQueen"! Missing all week, and then he
turns up in the middle of nowhere! In a little town called Radiator Springs.
Darrell Cartrip: Wearing whitewall tires, of all things. [McQueen grunts and as
Chick's "C" sticker shines sunlight over his eyes]
Chick: Ka-chicka, Ka-chicka, Ka-chicka! [laughs] Hey, where you been? I've been
kinda lonely. Nobody to hang out with. I mean, except the Dinoco folks. Aw, and the
twins. Of course. You know the twins the one that used to be your fans, but now
they're my fans. Anyway, listen to what the twins think...
[But then McQueen daydreams of when he sees Sally driving along the bridge beside
the waterfall in then of and the rest of offering to teach him about the ways of
friendship at the on. Just then, a green flag is waved as the screen then shows
Dexter Hoover waving it to start the race. The King and Chick get on their way, but
McQueen was not ready.]
Chick: [chuckles] Just me and the old man, fellas. McQueen just doesn't have it
today.
[Chick Hicks' Pit Crew all laugh. McQueen groans and drives back onto the track]
Chick: Oh, kid's just trying to be a hero, huh? Well, what do you think of this?!
[hits McQueen, causing him to spin] Yeah, that's it kid. [But McQueen manages to
keep up with going backwards and past Chick.] What?!
Tow Mater: Whoa! GitRDone! [McQueen winks, and turns back around. Mater laughs] I
taught him that. [poses to Chick's pit crew] KA CHOW!
Chick's Crew: [getting their eyes hit by the sunlight reflecting off Mater's wing
mirror] AH!!!
Bob Cutlass: What a move by McQueen, he's caught up to the leaders?
Darrell Cartrip: Oh, yeah. This is what it's all about. A 3-way battle for the
lead, with 10 to go!
Tex: [chortles] Look at that boy go out there!
Chick: [Chick then tries to get past McQueen, but gets blocked on several attempts.
Chick gasps and grunts, before coming up beside McQueen]...No You don't! [presses
against McQueen, causing a puncture in one of his rear tires]
Lightning McQueen: Doc, I'm flat! I'm flat!
Doc Hudson: Can you get back to the pits?
Lightning McQueen: Yeah, yeah. I think so.
Doc Hudson: [noticing Dexter waving a yellow flag] Hey, got a yellow. Bring it in.
Don't tear yourself up, kid. [Charlie Checker then comes out in front of the King
and Chick.]
Mack: We gotta get him back out there fast or we're gonna be a lap down, and we'll
never win this race!
Doc Hudson: Guido, it's time.
Chick Crew: Hey, tiny, you gonna clean his windshield?! [everyone laughing]
[As McQueen comes into the pits, Guido throws the new tires up in the air, quickly
takes off the old tires and catches the new tires, and puts them on, lasting four
seconds, before McQueen gets going again. Chick's crew then feel shocked, and all
of the pities' grilles, except the one of Wide Chick Pity, fall off.]
Bob Cutlass: This is it. We're heading into the final lap and McQueen is right
behind the leaders. What a comeback!
Darrell Cartrip: A hundred and ninety-nine laps, and, baby, it all comes down to
this!
Doc Hudson: This is it, kiddo. [through the radio to McQueen] You've got 4 turns
left, 1 at a time. Drive it in deep and hope it sticks...GO!
[McQueen closes in, revving his engine, and is about to pass Chick, who tries get
in front again, but McQueen swerves and goes to the other side.]
Chick: We'll see about that! [tries to get in front of McQueen, who then brakes,
causing Chick to press against the wall, and making McQueen able to go past]
Bob Cutlass: McQueen's going inside! [But then, Chick rams McQueen off the track,
and then hits the King, causing them both to serpentine.] Chick and The King are
loose!
Darrell Cartrip: I think McQueen is out of the race! [McQueen suddenly gets a
thought, and turns his front tires right, impressing Doc and surprising the team as
it helps McQueen to get back on the track and past the King and Chick.] McQueen
saved it!
Bob Cutlass: He's back on the track!
Doc Hudson: Float like a Cadillac...
Lightning McQueen: Sting like a Beemer!
Albert Hinkey: Ka-chow, ka-chow, ka-chow!
Fans: Wow!
Folks: Yaaaaaah! [laughing]
Darrell Cartrip: Lightning McQueen is gonna win the Piston Cup!
Sally Carrera: C'mon, you got it, you got it, Stickers!
Chick: [grunts as the King keeps blocking him] Argh! I am not coming in behind you
again, old man. [then he rams the King off the track, causing him to go through the
air, hitting the infield several times and spinning, before coming to a stop,
having huge damage. The crowd gasps at what happened.]
Lynda Weathers: Oh, no.
[Doc feeling and looking shocked. Then McQueen notices on the circuit's television
screen what has happened, then the screen changes to show the newspaper about Doc's
crash. Realizing what had happened to Doc, McQueen grinds to a halt before reaching
the finish line, leaving the crowd shocked and puzzled. Chick crossing the finish
line]
Chick: Yeah! Whoo-hoo! [goes onto the infield and spins around] I won, baby! Yeah!
Oh, yeah!
Flo: What's he up to, Doc?
[Doc then gets a smile before McQueen drives backwards towards the King. The
injured King grunts and moans.]
Chick: Come on, baby, bring it out! Bring out the Piston Cup. Ka-chicka, ka-chicka!
[The trophy appears next to him.] Yeah-ha-ha! Now, that's what I'm talking about!
Hey! How come I'm the only one celebrating is me, huh?! Where are the girls?! Bring
on the confetti! [gets shot at by the confetti] Ow!! Ow!! Easy with the confetti.
What's going on? Come on, snap some pictures. I gotta go sign my deal with Dinoco!
Ka-chicka! Say it with me. Ka-chicka, ka-chicka, ka-chicka!
Cameramen: Boo!
Mia & Tia: Boo!
Chick: What's wrong with everybody? [gets hit by a tire] Ow! Where's the
happiness?! [as the press, Mia and Tia all throw tires, shoes, "C" merchandise, oil
cans and cartons at him] Hey! This is the start of the Chick era! [leaves with his
trophy. Meanwhile, McQueen pushes the King back to the Dinoco stage. Lynda then
kisses McQueen on the cheek.]
Lynda Weathers: Thanks, Lightning.
Lightning McQueen: You're welcome. [leaves]
R.M.: Way to go, King! You're still the car!
Albert Hinkey: You're The King! Yeah!
Rust-eze Folks: [The crowd then cheers, before McQueen comes back to the Rust-eze
team and who are laughing and cheering.]
Rusty: You make us proud, kid!
Mack: Congrats on the loss, me bucko!
Doc Hudson: You got a lotta of stuff, kid.
Lightning McQueen: Thanks, Doc.
Tex: Hey, Lightning. How about coming over here and talk to me a minute? Son, that
was some real racin' out there. How'd you like to become the new face of Dinoco?
Lightning McQueen: [feeling surprised, looks towards the Dinoco team, which Rotor
Turbosky winks] But I didn't win.
Tex: Lightning, there's a whole lot more to racing than just winning.
Dusty: He was so rusty, when he drove down the street buzzards used to circle the
car!
Folks: [laughs]
Lightning McQueen: [looking towards them] Thank, you, Mr. Tex, but these Rust-eze
guys over there gave me my big break. I'm gonna stick with them.
Tex: Well, I sure can respect that. Still, you know, if there's ever anything I can
do for you, just let me know.
Lightning McQueen: I sure appreciate that, thank you... Actually, there's 1
thing...
Tow Mater: [riding in Rotor Turbosky, Dinoco is helicopter, over Radiator Springs]
WHOO-HOO! [laughs] Hey, look at me! I'm flying, by golly! Whoo-hoo! [as most of the
Radiator Springs residents watch from the ground] I'm happier than a tornado in a
trailer park! [Then the screen shows Luigi and Guido looking at their tire shelves
in their store.]
Luigi: [to Guido] I think it's about-a time we redecorate.
Michael Schumacher: [arriving with Antonio Veloce Eccellente and Costanzo Della
Corsa] CHOW! Hi, Lightning McQueen told me this was the best place in the world to
get tires. How about setting me and my friends up with three or four sets each?
Luigi: [Gasps] Guido! There is a real Michael Schumacher Ferrari in my store. A
REAL FERRARI! Punch me, Guido, punch me in the face. This is the most glorious day
of my life. [Faints]
Michael Schumacher: Whoa, [speaks Italian to Guido] spero che il tuo amico si
riprenda. Mi dicono che siete fantastici.
[Guido faints as well. Then the screen shows the Wheel Well, and moves to show
Sally looking at it, Sally sighing. Then she hears the sound of an McQueen engine
revs, Sally gasping and turns to see McQueen appearing with a new paint job and
also the whole of and they Sally giggles and McQueen laughs]
Down in Missouri
Flagstaff, Arizona
Tow Mater: All right, everybody please keep together now. We is now entering the
Doc Hudson wing of the museum. [shows them the part that mentions Doc having 27
wins in 1952]
Junior: Whoa. Unbelievable. That many wins in a single season.
The King: He's the real deal, Junior. The Hudson Hornet was my inspiration.
Lynda Weathers: [to Mater] Excuse me, son. Is Doc Hudson here today?
Tow Mater: Sorry, Mrs. The King, I think Doc went out for a drive or something.
[The camera then moves over as it shows McQueen racing with and Doc.]
Sarge: Attention! Kiss the pavement goodbye, gentlemen. When I'm finished, you'll
have mud in places you didn't know you had!
T.J. Hummer: Yo, I've never been off-road!
Sarge: [drives towards him] Well, that's gonna change right now! About face!
[Charlie Cargo, Murphy and Frank Pinkerton quickly turn around the other way, while
T.J. steps slowly around.] Drop and give me 20 miles! [Charlie, Frank Pinkerton and
Murphy then drive off the road onto the dirt, while T.J. is still stepping around
slowly] Go Go Go Go Go Go Go Go!
T.J. Hummer: [driving on the dirt] Man, now I got dirt in my rims!
Tow Mater: [Then the screen shows Mater fishing items from a valley. His hook hits
something metal.] Huh? [to McQueen] Look at this! It's my hood, it's my hood, I
ain't seen this thing in 20 years! [puts his hood on, with his voice now sounding
funny] Well, it fits perfectly. How do I look? [As Mater sneezes, his hood falls
off and back into the valley] Nah, dang.
[Then the camera shows visitors entering the Radiator Springs Drive-In Theater, as
the sign shows that Toy Car Story is playing. McQueen, Mater, Mia, Tia, Mack, the
rest of the residents and the whole of are watching as well. As they watch each
movie throughout the scene, a couple of tractors appear behind the fence,
increasing throughout the scene, with Frank appearing at the end.]

Minny (moans): Oh, for the love of Chrysler, can we please ask someone for
directions?!
Van: No! There's an on ramp close! I know it, I can feel it! (laughs while almost
driven to insanity.) Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha oh!
(Then a fly flies into the screen, leaving a mark, looking around for a few
seconds, before flying away. The company logos are shown, ending the film)
