00:01:30and sports fans everywhere.
00:01:33Today we inaugurate the 20th annual Transcontinental Road Race.
00:01:38Today, the five bravest young men and women in this bravest of nations
00:01:46will risk their lives in the greatest sporting event since the days of Spartacus.
00:01:52Three days hence, a new American champion will be crowned.
00:01:58For all the world to behold, in awe, in respect, in fear.
00:02:05All right, all right.
00:02:07This is Junior Bruce, your buddy, buddy, and mine.
00:02:11And I'll be giving you the blow-by-blow, play-by-play
00:02:14when the kings and queens of the open road roar onto the track.
00:02:19Do I hear the sound of engines?
00:02:21It's Calamity Jane Kelly, queen of the road,
00:02:25at the wheel of that mean old ornery stud boy.
00:02:33Zaney Janey, winner of this year's trials at Watkins Glen,
00:02:36placed second in 1998 and led in last year's second lap
00:02:40until she went out with gear trouble.
00:02:43Her fans and lovers everywhere wish Janey better luck this year.
00:02:47My fans can wish me all the luck they want.
00:02:50If my luck with my lovers gets any better, I'll miss the race completely.
00:02:53Isn't that right, Pete?
00:02:56At the start of the race, only a heartthrob away,
00:02:59this is Grace Pander on the spot, as usual,
00:03:03to welcome the greatest racer of all time
00:03:06and a very dear friend of mine.
00:03:09Yes, in just a moment, he will be coming through the doors.
00:03:21There is no cause for alarm.
00:03:23The patient has been flown in from abroad in a state of suspended animation
00:03:27in order to facilitate the healing of his recent limb transplants.
00:03:31He should be coming around any moment now.
00:03:46Frankenstein, can you give me an exclusive?
00:03:49How are things abroad?
00:03:51How is Mr. President? Is he still in Moscow?
00:03:54Mr. President is in his summer palace in Peking.
00:04:00He loves everybody.
00:04:02And everybody loves him.
00:04:07Here she is, that adorable swastika sweetheart,
00:04:11Matilda the Hun from Milwaukee,
00:04:15and her lovable Nazi navigator, Herman the German Fox.
00:04:30Matilda, Herman, do you think this is your turn
00:04:33to be first and foremost in sunny California?
00:04:36Today, California.
00:04:38Tomorrow, the world.
00:04:39Bye, Herman.
00:04:41I hope your buzz bomb has a little more juice in its warhead this year.
00:04:50Whoever named your car the Bull was only half right.
00:04:55Frankenstein, will Mr. President fly in to crown the winner of the race?
00:04:59Yes.
00:05:00Is it true that with your new mechanical arm,
00:05:02you can shift gears in less than a twentieth of a second?
00:05:05Would you care to comment on that?
00:05:07No.
00:05:08How do you feel about going into the race with a navigator you've never met?
00:05:12You'll love Annie. She's a red-hot sexpot.
00:05:15She better be a red-hot navigator.
00:05:20No more questions.
00:05:22It's the Lion.
00:05:23And at the wheel, Ray Nero the Hero Lotigan.
00:05:28Never has finished the Transcontinental,
00:05:30but three big wins in the provinces this season,
00:05:33plus a brand new beast,
00:05:35means Nero's not fiddling around.
00:05:38Sit still, Cleopatra, and stop blocking me.
00:05:42My fans want to see me.
00:05:44They've never seen a has-been before?
00:05:54Annie Smith?
00:05:55Mr. Frankenstein.
00:05:57I've checked out the car and everything seems perfect.
00:06:00I have the route maps right here.
00:06:02I will check them in a minute.
00:06:06We will roll when everything seems perfect to me.
00:06:12I've packed some high-protein capsules
00:06:15and as many adrenaline tablets as I could find.
00:06:18And I've also assembled a medical kit,
00:06:20just in case.
00:06:21I'm trained as a nurse.
00:06:23I don't need a nurse.
00:06:24I need a navigator.
00:06:26Mr. Frankenstein,
00:06:28you're very good at what you do,
00:06:30and I'm very good at what I do.
00:06:33We'll see.
00:06:37And you know,
00:06:38there's only one person who guns an engine like that.
00:06:42It's gotta be the roughest, tough guy of them all,
00:06:46Machine Gun Joe Viterbo!
00:06:52Here he comes, Machine Gun Joe.
00:06:55Loved by thousands, hated by millions.
00:06:58Only living previous winner except for Frankenstein.
00:07:01Highest lifetime score after Frankenstein,
00:07:04and he's certainly getting the welcome he deserves.
00:07:11Joe doesn't look too happy,
00:07:13but you just can't keep those Frankenstein fans down.
00:07:18Lousy sons of bitches.
00:07:20Frankenstein!
00:07:21Give it to them, Joe!
00:07:23More Frankenstein!
00:07:25I'll give you Frankenstein!
00:07:29I did it!
00:07:31Here he comes! Here he comes!
00:07:33Frankenstein!
00:07:35Frankenstein the legend!
00:07:37Frankenstein the indestructible!
00:07:40Sole survivor of the titanic pileup of 95.
00:07:43Only two-time winner of the transcontinental road race.
00:07:47Frankenstein!
00:07:48Ripped up, wiped out,
00:07:50battered, shattered, creamed and reamed.
00:07:53A dancer on the brink of death.
00:07:56Frankenstein, who lost a leg in 98,
00:07:59an arm in 99.
00:08:01With half a face and half a chest
00:08:03and all the guts in the world, he's back.
00:08:07God only knows what he looks like under that mask,
00:08:10but he is back.
00:08:12In the name of Mr. President,
00:08:14America loves you, Frankenstein!
00:08:27You will regret that, Joe.
00:08:35Stay tuned, racing fans.
00:08:37T-Video satellite will bring every mile
00:08:40of thrills and spills into your living room.
00:08:43All five cars are in starting position
00:08:45here at New York Memorial Raceway,
00:08:47ready to roll.
00:08:49Now, we take you to the Summer Palace
00:08:52and Mr. President.
00:08:55President.
00:09:09My children, whom I love so dearly.
00:09:14It has been my duty in the long and difficult years
00:09:20since the world crash of 79
00:09:23to serve you as best I could.
00:09:27Never before in history have masses
00:09:30forgone all combat
00:09:32so that the spirit of genius might thrive
00:09:35and seek the golden key
00:09:37to a new time of plenty
00:09:39in the fertile field of minority privilege.
00:09:43And now, my children,
00:09:45the drivers are ready, the world is waiting.
00:09:48Once more, I give you what you want.
00:09:53Go!
00:10:05Good morning, Americans.
00:10:07Once again, the race is underway
00:10:09with 12-hour pit stops scheduled
00:10:11at St. Louis and Albuquerque,
00:10:13home of the American Indian Museum.
00:10:16At this very moment, the cars are howling
00:10:19through the streets of Manhattan,
00:10:21but no points have been scored as yet.
00:10:24Take it away, Junior Bruce.
00:10:27They're coming out of the Lincoln Tunnel now
00:10:29with Frankenstein and Joe running neck and neck.
00:10:32Then it's the Lion driven by, passed by,
00:10:35Calamity Jane in the ball,
00:10:37moving into third place.
00:10:51Oh, yeah!
00:11:21Oh, yeah!
00:11:42All right, and hey, hey, hey,
00:11:44the cars have split up.
00:11:46The drivers taking off on their favorite routes.
00:11:49Frankenstein still out in front, headed due west
00:11:52with Nero the hero on his tail,
00:11:54hoping to pick up his leftovers.
00:11:56Calamity Jane's on a northwest hack.
00:11:58Matilda's buzz bomb is trying to catch up
00:12:00with Machine Gun Joe, now streaking southwest.
00:12:04Once again, Mr. President.
00:12:06I have made the United Provinces of America
00:12:10the greatest power in the known universe.
00:12:12I have also given you
00:12:15the most popular sporting event
00:12:17in the history of mankind,
00:12:19the transcontinental road race,
00:12:22which upholds the American tradition
00:12:24of no holds barred.
00:12:27No holds barred.
00:12:30That's how he got to be president.
00:12:32Hypocrite pig, what about our ultimatum?
00:12:35He's been laughing us off for 15 years.
00:12:38Passive resistance means nothing to him.
00:12:40Pick up that flag, young man.
00:12:42It's time for action.
00:12:44It is not a time for violence.
00:12:46Mrs. Payne, I love Annie as much as you do,
00:12:48but she's no match for Frankenstein,
00:12:51and we can't risk letting him get away.
00:12:53Frankenstein is the biggest target in the world
00:12:55and a personal friend of Mr. President's.
00:12:57That, Lieutenant Fury, is exactly why
00:13:00they'll call off the race, to save his life.
00:13:03My granddaughter will succeed.
00:13:05Don't you ever take off that mask?
00:13:07No. Don't you know about my face?
00:13:10I've heard stories.
00:13:13Nobody's ever seen it, have they?
00:13:16Except my other navigators.
00:13:18And they're all dead.
00:13:21So they are.
00:13:26They say you lost most of your jaw
00:13:28in the crack of 92.
00:13:31And my right eye in 95.
00:13:34And my nose and my left eye in 97.
00:13:37Most of my cranium in 98.
00:13:39I'm held together with patches of plastic
00:13:41and steel plates.
00:13:44It's not a pretty sight.
00:13:47You want to see?
00:13:50Why not? I've seen everything else.
00:13:52Remember, you're doing this on your own.
00:13:55I take no responsibility.
00:13:59What'd you expect?
00:14:01Another pretty face?
00:14:07They really love you, Joe.
00:14:10Yeah?
00:14:12Then how come they ain't done it on the road proving it?
00:14:15Hey, you better make this left turn.
00:14:18You'll shave off a bit of your beard.
00:14:21I'll shave off a bit of my beard?
00:14:24Yeah.
00:14:26You better make this left turn.
00:14:28You'll shave off about 2 miles that way.
00:14:30Yeah, all right.
00:14:51All right, all right.
00:14:53Yes, sirree.
00:14:55A clean hit.
00:14:57A perfect hit.
00:14:59And no pain for the target.
00:15:01Too bad the guy was only 38.
00:15:03Just two years older,
00:15:05he'd have been worth three times the points.
00:15:07But for the second year in a row,
00:15:09Machine Gun Joe has splattered the scoreboard first.
00:15:13How'd you like that, huh?
00:15:15Get off of that one, Myra, baby.
00:15:19What's the matter with this engine?
00:15:21Oh, sounds fine to me.
00:15:23Amateurs.
00:15:25Get back there and retard the spark for, uh, three degrees.
00:15:51All right.
00:16:13Glad to see you were able to find your way back.
00:16:17As the cars roar into Pennsylvania,
00:16:21the cradle of liberty,
00:16:23it seems apparent that our citizens
00:16:25are staying off the streets,
00:16:27which may make scoring particularly difficult,
00:16:30even with this year's rule changes.
00:16:33To recap those revisions,
00:16:36women are still worth ten points
00:16:39more than men in all age brackets,
00:16:43but teenagers now rack up 40 points
00:16:47and toddlers under 12 now rate a big 70 points.
00:16:52The big score, anyone, any sex,
00:16:56over 75 years old,
00:16:58has been upped to 100 points.
00:17:02As always,
00:17:04how fast you move determines how long you live.
00:17:12Whoa!
00:17:18Whoa!
00:17:42Whoa!
00:17:48Whoa!
00:17:55A beautiful kill, a neat kill.
00:17:58No calamities for Jane today, no, sir.
00:18:01And you can bet she'll be getting both ears for that one.
00:18:13What is that?
00:18:15Euthanasia day at the geriatrics hospital.
00:18:17They do it every year.
00:18:19Here he comes! He's coming!
00:18:42Yeah!
00:18:48Frankenstein scores!
00:18:50Frankenstein scores at last!
00:18:53But what kind of a score, boys and girls?
00:18:55Just 110 points out of a possible big 700.
00:18:59What do you think about that, Gracie?
00:19:01Well, those doctors, dear friends of mine,
00:19:06have been pretty smug all these years
00:19:08setting up the old folks.
00:19:10Frankenstein must have decided it was their turn.
00:19:13Which only goes to show that even the fearsome Frankenstein
00:19:17has a 100% red-blooded American sense of humor.
00:19:23Annie saved those old people,
00:19:25and she'll deliver Frankenstein.
00:19:28Meanwhile, innocent people are being slaughtered on our highways.
00:19:32They're like Christians being thrown to the gladiators.
00:19:36But just remember, the Christians won.
00:19:39Did they, Mrs. Payne?
00:19:40I take it from your attire
00:19:42that your sabotage operations are being carried out
00:19:45despite my wishes?
00:19:48Mrs. Payne,
00:19:51we're set to hit them with everything we've got.
00:19:54Then in the name of humanity,
00:19:56let Operation Anti-Race begin!
00:20:01How in the hell are we supposed to score in this graveyard?
00:20:04You're the navigator. That's your problem.
00:20:07You better think of something pretty soon,
00:20:09or else you're going to be out on your ass.
00:20:11It isn't my fault everyone scored before us.
00:20:14You should have gone after that Boy Scout camp like I told you.
00:20:17I tried a goddamn Boy Scout camp.
00:20:20You know how fast those Boy Scouts move?
00:20:24Now here's something for your speed.
00:20:27It's got to be at least 200 points.
00:20:30If they scatter, go for the baby and the mother.
00:20:34Come on! Come on!
00:20:37Go for the baby! The baby!
00:20:40That's it.
00:20:42Come get baby.
00:20:44Bye-bye, baby. Hello, 70 points.
00:20:49Hey, I'm off the airs! I'm off the airs!
00:20:52Would you please take your places?
00:20:54Take your places.
00:20:56Grace, I'm with an interview right now.
00:20:58Hello, ladies.
00:21:00Isn't this just the most exciting race in years?
00:21:03I certainly think so.
00:21:05And guess what?
00:21:07I have a surprise for you.
00:21:09Mrs. Rhonda Bainbridge in person.
00:21:12Oh, my God.
00:21:14I have a surprise for you.
00:21:16Mrs. Rhonda Bainbridge in person on my show.
00:21:22The widow of Edward Bainbridge,
00:21:25whom, as we all know,
00:21:27was machine gun Joe Viterbo's first score.
00:21:32Welcome to my home.
00:21:34And may I call you Rhonda?
00:21:36Oh, please do, Mrs. Pander.
00:21:38Are we about ready here?
00:21:40Yeah, just about.
00:21:42We'll have to go right away.
00:21:46As the widow of the race's first score,
00:21:50you have won a high-style two-room apartment
00:21:54in Acapulco.
00:21:56Start the jam!
00:21:59And next year, you will be watching the race
00:22:03on a 50-inch, three-dimensional
00:22:06octophonic team video set...
00:22:09Very impressed, Americans.
00:22:12The execution of the barbarian killer Nero the Hero
00:22:16is the people's greatest honor.
00:22:19And the winner of the race
00:22:21will be the one and only
00:22:24The execution of the barbarian killer Nero the Hero
00:22:27is the people's first stroke
00:22:30against the evil and corrupt regime of Mr. President.
00:22:35I am Thomasina Bain,
00:22:38founder and commander of the Army of the Resistance.
00:22:42For 20 years,
00:22:44Americans have been told when to eat and when to sleep,
00:22:48when to love and when to hate.
00:22:52The age of obedience is over.
00:22:56In the names of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln,
00:23:00and Harry Truman,
00:23:03I call upon you to stand up for your inalienable rights.
00:23:08We declare war upon the bipartisan party,
00:23:11on Mr. President,
00:23:13and on that most inhuman desecration of life and liberty,
00:23:18the transcontinental road rape.
00:23:22I thank you.
00:23:25What the hell was that?
00:23:27I have no information.
00:23:29Is this race still on?
00:23:30I have no information.
00:23:32Well, what do you think?
00:23:33About what?
00:23:34About that speech.
00:23:36And Spice to the race?
00:23:38Spice? They've killed Nero.
00:23:41Yeah, they would have got more points for me.
00:23:43Don't you understand?
00:23:45They've declared war on the race and on you.
00:23:48Aren't you worried?
00:23:49The only thing that worries me is machine gun Joe Viterbo.
00:23:52He's winning all you care about.
00:23:54Yes, it's the only standard of excellence left.
00:24:02Come on, here they come.
00:24:04About finished.
00:24:05Come on.
00:24:10Look at that stupid hole right in the middle.
00:24:13They won't get through there.
00:24:19It's big!
00:24:21Converge from all their routes and head for the first pit stop at St. Louis.
00:24:25Machine gun Joe is still leading the field
00:24:28with Frankenstein second, Calamity Jane third.
00:24:31Leaving Matilda the Hun in fourth position
00:24:33and Calamity Jane facing another Calamity.
00:24:37Right now, Frankenstein's score points put him just ahead of Joe.
00:24:41Hey, get off the road!
00:24:43Jesus, Chrysler! Get off the road!
00:24:46Arriving first in St. Louis.
00:24:48Hey, dummy, come on over and hold the lap.
00:24:59This sucker fits.
00:25:01Where's the one that says welcome Joe Viterbo?
00:25:04Square the center of it, Joe. You need every point you can get.
00:25:12I only mashed him slightly.
00:25:15Put him out of his misery, Joe.
00:25:17Hey, is that fair?
00:25:18Yeah.
00:25:19Hey, should I let him go?
00:25:22Fair's always right.
00:26:12One thing before we begin.
00:26:14The government would like it if nobody said anything about Nero.
00:26:17Understand?
00:26:18He hit a tree and that's it.
00:26:20Got it?
00:26:21We don't want to depress anybody by...
00:26:23Hey, hey.
00:26:24Everybody knows he was blown up by the resistance, you schmuck.
00:26:27It was on television.
00:26:29If you want to drive again next year, Mr. Viterbo,
00:26:32you'll keep those opinions to yourself.
00:26:34Okay, go ahead.
00:26:35This is Grace Pander from St. Louis,
00:26:38where Matilda, a dear friend of mine,
00:26:41is receiving a well-deserved rubdown.
00:26:44Tell me, Tilly darling,
00:26:46what can we expect from you when the cars go back on the road?
00:26:50You can expect a victory.
00:26:52By a member of the master race.
00:26:54A woman.
00:26:55Oh, Tilly darling,
00:26:57that certainly is showing a lot of confidence
00:26:59for someone who's lying fourth out of four.
00:27:02She doesn't mind as long as she's lying somewhere.
00:27:04Look, when I'm through with you, you're gonna be line of state, lady.
00:27:07Listen, miss, if anybody is going to Boothill,
00:27:09it's you and your biz bag.
00:27:10Buzz bomb.
00:27:11Shut up.
00:27:12Look, you just leave my navigator alone.
00:27:14Girls, girls, girls, remember you're on TV land.
00:27:18Pete, how do you like being a navigator?
00:27:20Well, Junior,
00:27:22I'd like it more if I was in the driver's seat.
00:27:26You'll get what's coming to you on the road.
00:27:29Oh, yeah?
00:27:30Well, what's coming to me is to find a solution to the Calgary problem.
00:27:34Frankenstein,
00:27:35can you tell us when you're gonna make your move?
00:27:37Are you gonna take any off-road chances for scores?
00:27:40Or are you driving all out to be first in the new L.A.?
00:27:44It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game.
00:27:47Frankenstein, a dear friend of mine,
00:27:49Frankenstein, tell me how it feels
00:27:51when at that electric instant, driving at 200 miles an hour,
00:27:54life and death coexist at the moment of scoring.
00:27:58You stand in the middle of Route 66 tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock.
00:28:02You can answer that question for yourself.
00:28:18What are you doing? Get away from me! Don't go nuts!
00:28:21Just tell him I was whispering sweet nothings in your ear.
00:28:27Tell us what he said to you.
00:28:29Well, Myra, what did Frankenstein have to say to you?
00:28:32He didn't say anything. He didn't...
00:28:34What'd he say?
00:28:35Nothing.
00:28:36What'd he say?
00:28:37Nothing!
00:28:38Look, I'm not playing games with you, Myra. I want to know what he said.
00:28:41He said there was nothing sweet in my ear.
00:28:45In my ear.
00:28:48In my ear.
00:29:01What do you want?
00:29:04My name is Laurie, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:29:07I'm head of Chapter 7, St. Louis Lovers of Frankenstein.
00:29:10I was chosen from over a hundred girls...
00:29:12You offer me your body? Is that it?
00:29:15You want to make love to me because I drive the monster and wear this costume?
00:29:19No, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:29:21But that wouldn't be fair to your navigator.
00:29:23It's taken her years of hard work to earn that privilege.
00:29:26Besides, we understand your feelings.
00:29:30What do you know of my feelings?
00:29:34Everything.
00:29:35Like...
00:29:36Like why you're afraid of falling in love.
00:29:39And why winning the race means everything to you.
00:29:43How do you know these things?
00:29:45From my dreams, partly.
00:29:48And from letters I get from other fans.
00:29:51Plus, the club subscribes to an astrology service.
00:29:54Well, if you're not here to offer me your body...
00:29:58I wanted to meet you, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:30:00I wanted you to know who I am.
00:30:03So it would have meaning.
00:30:06I don't understand.
00:30:08So what would have meaning?
00:30:09We love you, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:30:12I know just saying it doesn't mean much.
00:30:14Why do you love me?
00:30:15Because I kill people?
00:30:17Scoring isn't killing, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:30:19It's part of the race.
00:30:21You're a national hero.
00:30:23And we want you to know we're with you.
00:30:25A hundred percent.
00:30:27Good night, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:30:42Didn't hear you come in.
00:30:44What were you expecting, machine gun Joe?
00:30:48I thought I could trust you.
00:30:52You really just don't want to give me a chance, do you?
00:30:57I was trying to help you.
00:31:00I'm sorry.
00:31:03You're what?
00:31:08Sorry.
00:31:11He wanted to know our route,
00:31:13so I told him to go down 54 through the Cimarron Valley.
00:31:1954 is a dead end.
00:31:22It leads nowhere.
00:31:24That's right.
00:31:26And if Joe takes it, he's sunk.
00:31:29The only way Joe will take that road
00:31:31is if he sees us do it first.
00:31:33Or if he's ahead of us.
00:31:37Is that the arm that came off the 98?
00:31:40Mm-hmm.
00:31:41And which one of those obviously perfect legs
00:31:46came off the 99?
00:31:48The right.
00:31:50And the left one was just broken in six places
00:31:53and burned down to the bone.
00:31:55Is that right?
00:31:56Mm-hmm.
00:31:58It's a miracle you can still walk.
00:32:03Do you like to dance?
00:32:10Mm-hmm.
00:32:40♪♪♪
00:32:50♪♪♪
00:33:00Those Swiss mechanics sure did a good job on you.
00:33:04What else did they replace?
00:33:08Wait a minute.
00:33:10And I'll show you.
00:33:20Oh, Mr. President,
00:33:22bless thy children and make them strong.
00:33:25Bless thy daughters, Matilda and Jane,
00:33:28and thy son Joe.
00:33:30And bless thy beloved son,
00:33:32the immortal Frankenstein,
00:33:35who has given so much pleasure to so many.
00:33:39What the hell was Frankenstein?
00:33:41What about Joe Venturbo?
00:33:52The flag is down, and they're away
00:33:54with Machine Gun Joe blasting into the lead
00:33:57on this second lap of the great transcontinental road race.
00:34:01Frankenstein is making a left turn straight ahead.
00:34:04He's making a left turn, splitting early from the pack.
00:34:07Look out, all you folks, just south of here.
00:34:09Gee, Joe, there's nobody even close behind us.
00:34:12Shh, shh, shh.
00:34:13Where's he going? What's he doing?
00:34:15Hey, what are you doing? Where are we going?
00:34:18I dropped my glove.
00:34:20Let not the ruin of thy roads
00:34:22disgust the tires of thy...
00:34:24He threw Reisler!
00:34:27Ladies and gentlemen, by a bizarre accident,
00:34:30Frankenstein has killed our cherished colleague,
00:34:33the deacon of the bipartisan party.
00:34:35I think you did that on purpose.
00:34:37I have to give the fans something to talk about.
00:34:40It's my obligation as a national hero.
00:34:43Frankenstein scores now.
00:34:45Does that score count, Harold?
00:34:47An interesting point, Junior,
00:34:50and one that may set a significant precedent.
00:34:53Can a racer score a race official?
00:34:56Oh, and after all those nice things he said about it...
00:34:59It don't matter. It don't count.
00:35:01It's all about his personalities.
00:35:04The word, deacon, has been handed down to us
00:35:07from the ancient...
00:35:09The, uh...
00:35:11Frankenstein's score has been approved for 50 points.
00:35:14The confirmation has just been handed to me.
00:35:17Why, you know what that means, Junior.
00:35:19That means that the race officials from coast to coast
00:35:22will be falling like flies.
00:35:24The Frankenstein sparks, I hate them.
00:35:27I hate them.
00:35:29Elevating.
00:36:00Oh, why did you do that?
00:36:04Show me she loves me.
00:36:11Here they come. Let's get set.
00:36:15Oh, boy.
00:36:17Oh, boy.
00:36:19Oh, boy.
00:36:21Oh, boy.
00:36:23Oh, boy.
00:36:25Oh, boy.
00:36:27Oh, boy.
00:36:42Chicken gang.
00:36:44Chicken in a basket.
00:36:46Chicken in a casket.
00:36:48Chicken in a casket.
00:36:55Oh, shit!
00:37:08Hey, hey, who got the last laugh there, huh?
00:37:18The turnoff, it's coming up.
00:37:20Shall I take it?
00:37:21Who gives a goddamn shit?
00:37:23Should I?
00:37:24She says I shouldn't, so I should, right?
00:37:25Or should I? I don't know, what?
00:37:27Well, I don't think you should.
00:37:28I think it's definitely a trick.
00:37:30I'll do it.
00:37:31I won't do it.
00:37:32I'd be a schmuck to do it.
00:37:36I didn't love no schmuck!
00:37:38That's your story.
00:37:40That's right, that's right.
00:37:42If I see you messing with Frankenstein again,
00:37:44I'm really gonna bust your eyes.
00:37:46What do you mean, really?
00:37:57I'll have an almost unlimited score possibility.
00:38:00It's pretty far down the road.
00:38:02District penitent's compound.
00:38:05All those old congressmen chained up.
00:38:07It'd be like sitting ducks.
00:38:09Yeah, and all I gotta do is drive through a cyclone fence.
00:38:12Uh-uh.
00:38:13Look, the farther west we go,
00:38:15the fewer targets there'll be.
00:38:17Hey, come on.
00:38:18Joe's already on his way to a dead end,
00:38:20and the other two...
00:38:25Okay.
00:38:29Take the next ride.
00:38:32Now, as soon as the car gets within range,
00:38:35I shall give the signal.
00:38:36We'll have just under a minute after they reach the turnoff.
00:38:39Lieutenant Fury figures if we do it...
00:38:41Lieutenant Fury has nothing whatever to do with this.
00:38:44I want none of his surprises here.
00:38:47I could stand for a surprise,
00:38:49like if Frankenstein didn't show up.
00:38:51Don't worry, he'll show.
00:38:56What's our estimated time of arrival in Albuquerque?
00:38:59Well, I'm not sure.
00:39:01I mean, this detour's gonna make a difference.
00:39:03Haven't you calculated our time of arrival?
00:39:05Well, of course I did,
00:39:06but I couldn't take into consideration...
00:39:08Take what into consideration?
00:39:10Frankenstein, stop the car!
00:39:12Hold on.
00:39:17What the hell?
00:39:18Keep going!
00:39:19Don't stop now.
00:39:20What are you doing?
00:39:21What are they doing?
00:39:26Sorry, brother.
00:39:28If that's the best ambush the Resistance can come up with,
00:39:30we've got nothing to worry about.
00:39:32I guess not.
00:39:33One thing I can't figure out
00:39:35is why would they bother to dress that guy up to look like me?
00:39:38Maybe he was a fan.
00:39:44Who built this stinking road?
00:39:46I don't know.
00:39:47I don't know.
00:39:48I don't know.
00:39:49I don't know.
00:39:50I don't know.
00:39:51I don't know.
00:39:52I don't know.
00:39:53I don't know.
00:39:54I don't know.
00:39:55I don't know.
00:39:56I don't know.
00:39:57I saw you on the road!
00:39:58I saw you on this stinking road!
00:40:00If I ever get my hands on him, I'll rip his heart out!
00:40:04I've had it!
00:40:05I'm sick of this race and I'm sick of you!
00:40:13I guess it must have been Joe
00:40:14that set us up for that ambush, don't you think?
00:40:16Got in touch with those guys somehow
00:40:18and told them where we were going?
00:40:19I guess it might have been.
00:40:22But then how the hell did Joe know
00:40:23we were going to take a detour?
00:40:24the pit crew in St. Louis.
00:40:25Took your book out of the car while you were getting massaged.
00:40:29I didn't leave my book in the car.
00:40:31You didn't, huh?
00:40:33No.
00:40:35Well, then I guess it couldn't have been them.
00:40:38Who do you think it was?
00:40:39I have no idea.
00:40:41Why do you care, as long as they didn't get you?
00:40:43Us.
00:40:44They didn't get us.
00:40:45We're a team, remember?
00:40:54Come on over to my side.
00:41:00You're going to drive for a while.
00:41:02Why?
00:41:03I'm not trained as a driver.
00:41:04Never mind why.
00:41:06Just do as I tell you.
00:41:17Colling, I need to make a nice big score for us.
00:41:20Sure.
00:41:21Is everything special in mind?
00:41:24The cover will turn up.
00:41:27I'm sure that it will.
00:41:43Jesus H. Christ!
00:41:45I'll kill that rat!
00:41:47What did I do?
00:41:48Bag of face!
00:41:51Hey, Cornball, what's the fastest way through here?
00:41:53Well, actually, the only way we do it is we get a bulldozer.
00:41:58We trim this edge down here, and we drive through.
00:42:00But no, no.
00:42:01What's the fastest way between here and Albuquerque?
00:42:03You've got to go back to the main highway, really.
00:42:05But I lose 45 minutes!
00:42:06I've seen you before.
00:42:08I'm one of your greatest fans.
00:42:09You know that?
00:42:10I follow all of the races.
00:42:12I got pictures of you all over the outhouse.
00:42:15I named my favorite dog after you, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:42:17I did.
00:42:18Lousy stinkin' dirtball!
00:42:20You got two seconds to live!
00:42:47Come on, Pete, honey.
00:43:03You're going to take all day with that.
00:43:05I want to get on the road, make a few more scores.
00:43:07My bloodlust is fading.
00:43:09I'm almost finished, Calamity, sweetheart.
00:43:11We'll be back on the road in no time.
00:43:13Then we'll cream that Nazi's ass for her.
00:43:15What'd you say?
00:43:16It's big!
00:43:18You lousy bitch!
00:43:21I'll kill you for that!
00:43:23Nobody scores my Navigator and gets away with it.
00:43:45Uh-oh.
00:43:46Here she comes.
00:43:47And boy, is she pissed.
00:43:49Well, what does she expect?
00:43:50You leave your Navigator lying around?
00:43:52Naturally, somebody's going to run over him.
00:44:23She's gaining on us, Mama, and she's got murder on her mind.
00:45:11That's good.
00:45:13On three.
00:45:14One, two, three.
00:45:17She's got it.
00:45:18Easy.
00:45:19There she goes.
00:45:34Here they come!
00:45:40A detour.
00:45:41I really needed that right now.
00:46:03Holy shit.
00:46:14A special bulletin.
00:46:15There's been an accident, an explosion.
00:46:18It looks like Matilda has been blown totally...
00:46:26Correction!
00:46:27Matilda has made an impressive score.
00:46:30Stand by.
00:46:35Don't you want to take over now?
00:46:37I'm afraid I'm making us lose an awful lot of time.
00:46:40You're doing just fine.
00:46:52Looks like an easy score.
00:46:54Yeah.
00:46:55Yeah, it does.
00:46:57It's always best to start small.
00:47:09I missed him.
00:47:10Take some practice.
00:47:12Before it comes easy?
00:47:14It never comes easy.
00:47:16Keep your eyes on the road.
00:47:21How far is it to the penitence compound?
00:47:25Maybe 20 miles.
00:47:30Stop the car.
00:47:40Get out.
00:47:42Out.
00:47:50Come to the other side.
00:47:52Or on the front.
00:48:07Where is the penitence compound?
00:48:11It's in Japan.
00:48:17Get in.
00:48:28I could just push you out of this car and pick up a quick 30 points.
00:48:33Who are you? Who are you working for?
00:48:35I'm Thomasina Payne's granddaughter.
00:48:39I'm honored.
00:48:44So you were going to capture me and replace me with that goon back there.
00:48:48What for?
00:48:50He was going to deliver our ultimatum to Mr. President.
00:48:54Your life in exchange for the permanent abolition of the race.
00:49:06Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:49:28She was a great dear friend of mine.
00:49:32And I shall remember her forever howling down that freeway in the sky, knocking over the angels.
00:49:42The valiant Hun's demise was in fact caused by enemies of the people.
00:49:48There will be a special broadcast by Mr. President at 1900 hours.
00:49:53Stay tuned to find out how you can help Mr. President preserve our way of life.
00:50:00Come on, turn off the television.
00:50:03Hey, you guys want to stop playing that song, please?
00:50:06Look, what we got here is a race, a sporting event, not some kind of daredevil stunt.
00:50:10I want some kind of protection.
00:50:11You should have given us an escort right after Nero got it.
00:50:14Go on, don't score any escort, wouldn't you, baby?
00:50:16You want to zip your lip, Myra, huh?
00:50:19Now, are you going to cover me or not?
00:50:21Look, Mr. Viterbo, if you're afraid to go on with the race, why don't you quit?
00:50:25You're calling me a turkey?
00:50:26If you ask me, you're all just making excuses for poor driving.
00:50:29Poor driving?
00:50:30Listen, honey, Matilda the Hun was a champion driver.
00:50:33Ain't nobody could have scored my navigator and gotten away with it.
00:50:36And he's talking about poor driving.
00:50:38I'd like to see you out there.
00:50:39Yeah.
00:50:40I've been driving for 10 years.
00:50:41Nobody talks to me like this.
00:50:42You know who it is.
00:50:43It stinks.
00:50:44It's all on account of the rebels.
00:50:45Who mentioned anything about rebels?
00:50:47There are no rebels.
00:50:49Understand?
00:50:50Well, then, who was that old lady on the television?
00:50:53Thelicia Payne, she's a heartless lunatic.
00:50:55Would you please come outside, sir?
00:50:56We'd like to ask you a few questions.
00:50:59Come on, honey.
00:51:00Alone, if you don't mind.
00:51:02Mr. President will explain those accidents during his address to the nation tonight.
00:51:07How did she jam the networks?
00:51:08How'd she bump off our friends?
00:51:10She didn't bump off anybody.
00:51:11She walked into a television station, waving a gun, forced them to put her on the air.
00:51:15Now, we've taken her back to the asylum, and that is the end of it.
00:51:18You know, I've got just two words to say about that.
00:51:20Oh?
00:51:21Bullshit!
00:51:22Hey!
00:51:23I told you to stop playing that song!
00:51:26You seem to forget, Gerald, that I'm a representative of Mr. President's government.
00:51:31I happen to hold the power of life and death.
00:51:33Yeah?
00:51:34I happen to hold the clamp saw.
00:51:38Look out, Paterbo.
00:51:39You may be the second biggest clown in this circus,
00:51:42but if I want you dead, you're dead.
00:51:45Second biggest clown in this circus?
00:51:48But if I want you dead, you're dead.
00:51:51Second biggest clown in this circus?
00:51:52Sit down and eat!
00:51:59I told you to stop playing that music!
00:52:02Were they armed, or did they expect the fire and the dish to be enough to stop you?
00:52:06I don't know what they expected.
00:52:07We just ran through it all and kept on going.
00:52:11Just one more question, Mr. Frankenstein.
00:52:15Did you take that particular road on your own initiative?
00:52:18Or on the advice of your navigator?
00:52:22On my own initiative.
00:52:24Thank you, Mr. Frankenstein. That will be all.
00:52:29There has been a lot of talk about American rebels.
00:52:34We have positive proof that it was none other than the treacherous French
00:52:39who have been sabotaging our great race.
00:52:43Just as they and their stinking European allies
00:52:47have undermined and destroyed our great national economy.
00:52:53It is no coincidence, my dear children,
00:52:55that the word sabotage was invented by the French.
00:53:00Where's Annie?
00:53:01I don't know.
00:53:02Hey, did you hear the news?
00:53:04Mr. President said it was the French who knocked off Nero and Matilda.
00:53:08Watch out for the creeps, Suzette.
00:53:12Watch out for Turbo and Frankenstein
00:53:15as they begin the last lap of their long and difficult journey
00:53:21toward new Los Angeles.
00:53:28Drop your keys.
00:53:31I was just looking for something I lost.
00:53:34The race?
00:53:35Look, Joe.
00:53:37I threw you off course, okay?
00:53:40All's fair in love and war.
00:53:42I'm glad to hear you say that, Annie,
00:53:44because what we've got going here definitely ain't love.
00:53:48Well, then why don't we just forget about it?
00:53:52You know, Annie,
00:53:53these two bad things ain't like they were in the old days
00:53:56when we'd just take somebody in an alley and blow their brains out.
00:53:59You know?
00:54:01Joe, please.
00:54:02Go ahead and scream, Annie.
00:54:04You're hurting me, Joe.
00:54:05There's nobody to hear you.
00:54:08Huh?
00:54:11How does it feel to know
00:54:13that you're going to spend the rest of your life in pain?
00:54:16The rest of your life.
00:54:18It's about a minute and a half.
00:54:22Hey, Frankie.
00:54:23Frankie, I thought you navigated trying to screw around with the car,
00:54:27so I thought I'd come out and have a look at what was going on.
00:54:30You know what I mean?
00:54:31Hey, come on.
00:54:32Frankie!
00:54:40Frankie!
00:55:10Huh!
00:55:12Huh!
00:55:15Huh!
00:55:23Huh!
00:55:25Huh!
00:55:27Huh!
00:55:31Huh!
00:55:40Huh!
00:55:56Upstairs.
00:55:58So much for a fair fight.
00:56:01Next chance I get,
00:56:04you're dead.
00:56:11What were you doing down there?
00:56:13Getting more secret instructions from the lunatic fringe?
00:56:21Why don't you just turn me in and get it over with?
00:56:24No need to.
00:56:27You're blowing your cover.
00:56:29You're no threat to me.
00:56:31Anyway, you're not someone I would throw away.
00:56:34I have a job to do.
00:56:36Your job is a waste of time.
00:56:38The world doesn't want to be saved.
00:56:40I'm giving you a chance to save one small part of it.
00:56:44Yourself.
00:56:46Who are you, anyway?
00:56:49Nobody.
00:56:51I was brought up in a government training center
00:56:54to be just what I am, Frankenstein,
00:56:56the best driver on Earth, this year.
00:57:00They use one up, they bring in another.
00:57:03But I will be the last of the line.
00:57:05Oh, who's kidding, too?
00:57:07I never kid.
00:57:38Why don't you ever take off that glove?
00:57:41What's underneath it?
00:57:43That's my secret.
00:57:46You and the Swiss doctors again?
00:57:49There are no Swiss doctors.
00:57:52Just...
00:57:54Native American.
00:57:57Noir.
00:58:08Have you checked the oil?
00:58:10Yes.
00:58:11Have you checked the hydraulics?
00:58:13An hour ago.
00:58:14Brakes, tires, water?
00:58:16Yeah, they're okay. Everything's okay.
00:58:18Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything to sabotage the car.
00:58:24You get a load of that face?
00:58:26Yeah, I wonder if somebody's going to come after me.
00:58:28I don't think so.
00:58:29I don't think so, either.
00:58:31I don't think so, either.
00:58:33I don't think so, either.
00:58:34I don't think so, either.
00:58:36Yeah, I wonder if somebody got points for that eye.
00:58:40Listen, Frankenstein,
00:58:42there's just you, me, and Joe left in the race,
00:58:44and, well, I just want you to know that
00:58:47whoever wins or whatever happens,
00:58:49it's been really grand racing with you folks.
00:58:53I also want to say that I think you make a real nice couple.
00:58:56Thank you, Jane.
00:58:57Good luck.
00:59:06Joe, Myra,
00:59:08I just want to say,
00:59:10whatever happens, whoever wins...
00:59:11Hey, save it for the French.
00:59:16The cars are started, lined up,
00:59:18and ready to roll on the last lap.
00:59:20They're off!
00:59:21Frankenstein, call me crazy!
00:59:23Joe has just scored his own pit crew!
00:59:26You lousy sons of bitches!
00:59:31Machine gun Joe Viterbo,
00:59:33that funny man from Chicago,
00:59:35has scored his own mechanics for 40 points
00:59:38and is off to catch Calamity Jane and Frankenstein.
00:59:51Screw you, Joe Viterbo and your mother!
00:59:54Wait till you get to New L.A. first
00:59:56with the highest score, too.
00:59:58It's coming up on the left.
01:00:00Forget it. I'm keeping Frankie in my sights.
01:00:04He's got five minutes on us, and he's stretching it.
01:00:07So what? If there's trouble up ahead, he'll find it first.
01:00:11Oh, yeah. Take a look at your face.
01:00:14You'll find it first.
01:00:17You know, Myra, some people might think you're cute.
01:00:20But me, I think you're one very large baked potato.
01:00:24Roaring down motorway 66 towards California,
01:00:27Frankenstein looks certain to be first across the line.
01:00:31But Machine Gun Joe is still way ahead on points,
01:00:35and he could win the race
01:00:37even by arriving second in New Los Angeles.
01:00:40What's your prediction, Grace?
01:00:43You know, Junior,
01:00:45when Machine Gun Joe was just a little boy in Chicago,
01:00:49he had a pet snake that he used to love
01:00:52to ride over with his tricycle.

01:03:05ROARING
01:03:14Here. I didn't mean to hog it all.
01:03:16Thanks. What flavor is it?
01:03:18Uh, vanilla.
01:03:20Hmm. Not my favorite.
01:03:26Isn't it vanilla?
01:03:28It's peach or something.
01:03:30Yeah, well, my taste buds got wiped out in the crash of 97.
01:03:33Well, it's a good thing that mine is still intact.
01:03:36At least the French can't poison us.
01:03:42What's Frankenstein's location now?
01:03:44He's about 50 miles out, Lieutenant.
01:03:47They're coming fast.
01:03:52Goodbye, Mrs. Payne.
01:03:54When you see me again, Frankenstein will be my prisoner,
01:03:57and the whole country will know we must be taken seriously.
01:04:00Fury, wait. I'm coming with you.
01:04:02No, Mrs. Payne. It's too dangerous.
01:04:04Nonsense. I've waited 20 years for this moment.
01:04:07Oh, I know I can't join you on the mission,
01:04:09but I want to see you pull it off with my own eyes.
01:04:14Couple of turnoffs coming up.
01:04:16What's the quickest way to U.L.A.?
01:04:18That's funny.
01:04:20What?
01:04:22I can't... I can't seem to focus my eyes on the map.
01:04:26I think we stay on seven.
01:04:28I feel like I'm gonna pass out.
01:04:31Look at that.
01:04:36It's them, isn't it?
01:04:38Please, please stop the car.
01:04:40Sorry. We're in a race.
01:04:52Frankenstein, stop right now. We want to talk to you.
01:04:57Stop before I force you to.
01:05:02Come on.
01:05:13I'll bomb you to a halt if I have to.
01:05:17Holy shit!
01:05:28Annie, help me! Turn off the engine!
01:05:33Annie's dead, Mrs. Payne. He must have killed her.
01:05:38Now I'm really gonna let him have it.
01:05:47Look at that.
01:05:49The Rebels are sure giving it to Frankenstein.
01:05:51Thank you, Rebels.
01:05:53Baby, I think we got this race won.
01:05:56Aren't we gonna help him, Joe?
01:05:58What, are you nuts or something?
01:06:00I'm getting my ass out of here before they decide to make emergency landing.
01:06:03Come on, sit down.
01:06:05Atta girl.
01:06:16Oh, shit!
01:06:46Oh, shit!
01:07:16Oh, shit!
01:07:47No!
01:08:01Well, America, there you have it.
01:08:04Frankenstein has just been attacked by the French Air Force.
01:08:08And he's whipped their derrieres.
01:08:10His point total for this one will be something astronomical.
01:08:14Eugene, gun Joe better and watch out.
01:08:23Right on schedule.
01:08:25Hey, what happened?
01:08:27I slipped you a 30-minute sleep X.
01:08:29Didn't want you doing something back there we would both regret.
01:08:32Did they attack us?
01:08:34According to the radio, we were attacked by the French Air Force.
01:08:37Was the plane shot down?
01:08:39Even those Swiss doctors couldn't have helped.
01:08:42I know they were your people.
01:08:44But I can't let anything stop me now.
01:08:46They didn't expect you to give up easily.
01:08:48They were prepared for whatever happened.
01:08:52Oh, my God, you've been hit.
01:08:54I'll make it.
01:08:57I'm sorry things worked out this way.
01:09:01It's not over yet.
01:09:03I'm afraid it is.
01:09:05Hey!
01:09:12No!
01:09:36What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:09:38It doesn't make any difference what happens to me now.
01:09:41Now, that is the dumbest, sorriest thing I've ever heard you say.
01:09:44I don't believe you've got a drop of Thomasina pain's blood in your whole body.
01:09:48The minute things get rough,
01:09:50you close your eyes and try to drive us off a cliff.
01:09:53If you just stop trying to kill me for a minute,
01:09:55I need your help.
01:09:57How can you possibly expect me to help you?
01:10:00You're my navigator.
01:10:02You're the only one who knows where you're going.
01:10:04I mean, whose side are you on anyway?
01:10:07I thought the only thing you cared about was winning the race.
01:10:10Sure.
01:10:12Only the winner of the race is to shake hands with Mr. President.
01:10:16Is that a grenade?
01:10:18A hand grenade.
01:10:19That handshake is all I've lived for
01:10:22for as long as I can remember.
01:10:25Now, wait a minute. I don't want you to die.
01:10:32It's my life's work.
01:10:37It's my life's work.
01:11:08Why do you want to win this race so bad?
01:11:11Why do I want to win this race?
01:11:13In the name of hate.
01:11:15One big 50 for hate.
01:11:37Oh, no.
01:12:07Oh, no.
01:12:38Give me your hand.
01:12:58Give me your hand.
01:13:00Haven't you forgotten, Hayden?
01:13:02You don't need no police offense.
01:13:05Give me your hand!
01:13:22Hey, stop! Will you stop that car?
01:13:24Shut up! What is it?
01:13:25It's a hand!
01:13:26It's a hand! Will you stop that damn car?
01:13:30Stop that car! Stop it!
01:13:35You're going to have to shift the gears for me now.
01:13:46The only thing that worries me is how I'm going to shake hands with Mr. President.
01:13:53Mr. President is the one who should be worried now.
01:14:05He's coming! Can you hear that engine? Still in perfect tune.
01:14:21Here he is, the one and only three-time winner and sole survivor of the 20th annual Transcontinental Road Race, none other than Frankenstein himself.
01:14:35And now, Mr. President.
01:14:37Our enemy, the French, have destroyed nearly all our gallant racers, just as they have crippled our once great economy and wrecked our telephone system.
01:14:51But even they, in all their evil power, were unable to destroy Frankenstein, who is the embodiment of our national virtue, and therefore indestructible.
01:15:06It is fitting that Frankenstein should be the one chosen by your president to lead you in this war against the French, which I now decree.
01:15:18Frankenstein has been shot! There is a French spy in our midst! Guards, seize that woman!
01:15:26Frankenstein, are you all right?
01:15:41Eddie!
01:15:45Frankenstein!
01:16:15Frankenstein! Frankenstein! Frankenstein!
01:16:30Mr. and Mrs. President Frankenstein, dear friends of mine, can you tell us what your first official acts will be?
01:16:38I plan to pension off the secret police, restore free elections, end minority privilege, and move the seat of government back to New Los Angeles. The country has been governed from abroad long enough.
01:16:48Mr. President Frankenstein, is it true that you are now accepting rebels into your government?
01:16:54Well, since I have accepted one into my house.
01:16:58President Frankenstein has appointed my great-grandmother, Thomasina Payne, in view of her experience in the field, as the Minister for Domestic Security.
01:17:07And I plan to deal very harshly with rebels. Anybody who is unhappy with happiness can go find someplace else to live.
01:17:17What about the race?
01:17:19The race is abolished.
01:17:20Abolished?
01:17:21That's right.
01:17:22We feel that the country no longer needs this gratuitous display of violence to show the world that its virility is still intact.
01:17:29Right.
01:17:30But Mr. President Frankenstein, isn't it true that as a racer, your popularity depended entirely on violence?
01:17:35I'm afraid I shall have to let my press secretary answer that question.
01:17:40Stop annoying Mr. President with impertinent questions, Junior.
01:17:44It's the race, man.
01:17:46President Frankenstein, you can't call off the race. The American people won't stand for it.
01:17:51Get out of the way, Junior.
01:17:53The race is the symbol of everything we hold dear, our American way of life.
01:17:58Sure, it's violent, but that's the way we love it.
01:18:01Violent, violent, violent. And that's why we love you.
01:18:04Frank, do we have to listen to this?
01:18:06No.
01:18:17As do this matter of violence.
01:18:20The technique of violence was first developed in two million B.C. by the Australopithecines,
01:18:27a tribe of four-foot primates who had no brains to speak of,
01:18:32but who nevertheless invented the tomahawk and used it on each other.
01:18:37This practice led to the enlargement of the brain, another useful weapon.
01:18:43Yes, murder was invented even before man began to think.
01:18:48Now, of course, man has become known as the thinking animal.
