Born to Ride

Do we have speed?

Yeah.

Hey, Mike. Steve Falls, "Bikernet dot com". Good to meet you.

Hey, chief. Nice to meet you.

Good to be able to interview a regular biker.

But you're noted as kind of a hero.

Not a hero.

Well, relax for this. Look at me and not the camera.

Oh.

Move in a little closer.

Thanks, Mike, for this opportunity.

I just have a few questions.

Um... people are calling you a hero...

because you exposed Senator Forrest Clayton...

on corruption and embezzlement charges.

Let's just get something straight, I am not a hero.

I get it but, uh... It took a lotta guts to take on a guy like Clayton.

Oh, I don't know about that. I'm just your average biker.

On weekends, I like to get on my bike...

and hit the open road.

¶ Yeah, I've been raclng ever slnce I was 15 ¶

¶ And aln't nobody ever catch me ¶

¶ Yeah, I have its heart and now I'm taking back my name ¶

¶ We made it look so damn easy ¶

¶ You can't slow me down, slow me down ¶

¶ I only got one speed ¶

¶ ¶

¶ I'm going to rock until I can't see the ground ¶

¶ I just want to keep golng faster ¶

¶ Yeah, yeah, yeah ¶

¶ I'm golng to fly and I ain't coming down ¶

¶ I just want to keep going faster Baby, let's go faster ¶

¶ ¶

¶ Yeah, yeah, yeah ¶

¶ That's what I got to do ¶

¶ I've won so many times I've never been busted ¶

¶ I don't remember how to lose ¶

¶ You're always saying that I can't escape justice ¶

¶ How many times I got to tell you ¶

¶ You can't slow me down, slow me down ¶¶

Joan, you make my Phoenix reservations yet?

I was just getting to it, Congressman.

And Mr. Steele is on line one.

Oh, good. No calls, no visitors.

Jack, I was just getting ready to call you.

Look, cut the bullshit and just listen.

Everything's arranged for Phoenix. You ready?

Congress made a decision yesterday.

All right, you deliver the information.

And you're gonna walk away...

with enough money to run for President.

I mean, that is if you want to.

Don't disappoint me, Clayton.

Thank you for calling Desert Hills Resort. How may I help you?

Yes, I'd like to reserve a suite...

for Congressman Clayton of California.

It'd be an honor to have Congressman Clayton with us again.

I'll see to it personally that he's well taken care of.

When wlll he be arriving?

Uh... this Friday afternoon.

We'll see you then. Thanks for calling.

Congressman Clayton.

You got the money?

It's all there. Don't worry about it.

How come it's so much?

You know what they say, Mr Simmons, you play, you pay.

How do I know there isn't a copy?

Trust me, Mr Simmons, I don't keep filth like that around.

It's everything. Now get out of here.

And I suggest you change your sexual preference.

How much?

- Ten thousand. - Oh, brother, dear.

Oh, my brother, this is chump change...

compared to what I got planned next.

Yeah. Last time you said that I ended up in jail.

What do you know about Congressman Clayton from California?

Whoa, whoa! Hold on!

Clayton? He's a U.S. Congressman for Christ's sake.

Trust me.

I'm your brother.

All right, this one will cover the bed.

Now, we just need a sprinkler head camera over here.

All right. Now we just got to do the sitting room.

Yep. I think this is the one that'll get us killed.

Come on, David, you worry too much.

A few thousand off some schmuck businessman,

that's one thing. But a U.S. Congressman?

I mean that's just dangerous.

I mean he could call the FBI, the CIA...

he could have us taken out with one phone call.

Shh. Would you keep it down?

You know what your problem is?

You watch too much television.

Things like that don't happen in real life.

Now hand me one of those smoke detector cameras.

What makes you even think Clayton's gonna do anything...

worth blackmailing him, anyway?

Last time he was here, he had a lotta teenage girls up to the room.

So?

I don't think they were here for a political science lesson.

Check the monitor.

Everything checks out. Let's get outta here.

Try the zoom. See if it still looks alright.

Everything's fine, Mr. Spielberg.

Now can we get the hell outta here before somebody comes in, please?

Hey, relax. We'll make millions on this little production.

Just make sure you record everything on this guy until he leaves.

That part of the story is publlc record.

I was wondering where you fit in.

I guess I am getting ahead of myself.

My buddy Alex and I were gonna go on another road trip.

Finally gonna head out to Sturgis.

Hey man. We're supposed to be going to Sturgis.

What're you doing? Screening your calls?

Pick up the phone.

¶ Check him out down in gorgeous... Sturgis. Gorgeous ¶

After we leave, it'll take us about, uh... six hours.

You better be ready to hit the road, dude.

I'll plck you up in a half an hour. We're off to Phoenlx.

Oh, yeah?

¶ Tank of gas, bag of chips ¶

¶ and a change of clothes ¶

¶ We're on a road trip Cruising through the U.S.A. ¶

¶ We're on a road trlp. We don't do thls every day. We're on a road trlp ¶¶

Hey! Hey! You!

Mind your own business.

Hey, come on, old man, stay still! Come on!

Call "9-1-1".

Come on. come on. Here. Ah. Take it easy, take it easy.

You act like you know what you're doing.

Yeah. I have a little training. Hey, "semper fi".

Cherry Point. You?

San Diego. You serve "Nam"?

Yeah. Two tours.

That's when I lost my leg. You would've been too young.

Yeah. But my dad wasn't. He died there.

They got away, man. How's the old man?

Old man, my ass.

I'd kick yours if I didn't have this hole in my side.

Where's the love, man?

Hey, stick with us.

Where's the love, man?

Paramedics!

Hey, over herel

One, two, three.

Hey, here's your hat and cane, alrlght? What hospltal?

County hospital.

Mlke. Mlke.

I'm going to the hospital.

We're not going to the hospital, man.

I'm going to the hospital.

We're on a schedule, bro.

We've got a schedule. Mike, Mikey.

I'm not going to the hospital, man.

Fuck the schedule.

I'm going to Sturgis, bro.

Fuck you.

Dude, don't fucking do this to me, man.

Dude, we got to... we got...

We can't play Batman and Robin all day.

Sit tight. Clayton just arrived.

Can I get you something else to drink, Mr. Steele?

No, thanks.

This is Joan.

The Congressman has arrived and will be here momentarily,

Mr. Steele.

That's great, sweetheart.

Do me a favor, would you? Shut the door on the way out.

Jack, old buddy, are you sure we can trust this man?

His tardiness does indicate a certain unreliability.

Believe me, Mr. Brown,

the congressman is well aware of what's at stake here.

Now he may not be punctual, but his information's golden.

Ooh-wee. If it is,

we stand to make a fortune on the stock market.

Does he know this?

All he knows is that he has to deliver...

the information on which company got the bid.

For that, we give him two million dollars.

That's a lotta money,

especlally if his information is in any way incorrect.

What are you breaking my balls for?

I told you the information is good.

Besides, what are you two worried about?

That's tip money for you,

especially considering all the money we're gonna make on the market.

Breathe deep, gentlemen. Let your balls do the talklng.

Gentlemen, sorry I'm late.

Did Joan take care of you?

Can I get you some more coffee?

Cut the bullshit. Let's get down to business.

Christ's sake, Jack, lighten up. Can I get you something?

This is not a game.

Hand over the information.

Mr. Brown, Mr. Red,

I believe there's another part of this transaction.

Oh, shit.

You know I could get into a lotta trouble turning this over to you.

Quit fucking around. This information better be good.

You know what I mean?
