Knight Rider

Knight Rider, a shadowy flight

Into the dangerous world of a man

Who does not exist.

Michael Knight, a young loner

On a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent,

The helpless, the powerless,

In a world of criminals who operate above the law.

. Just a still town girl on a Saturday night.

. Lookin' for the fight of her life.

. In the real-Time world no one sees her at all.

. They all say she's crazy.

. Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart.

. Changing woman into life.

. She has danced into the danger zone.

. When a dancer becomes a dance.

. It can cut you like a knife.

. If the gift becomes the fire.

. On a wire between will.

Go!

. She's a maniac, maniac on the floor..

You know, KITT,

Sometimes I think I got the best job in the whole world.

A lot of men would die for duty like this.

You nearly have on several occasions.

You're all heart, buddy.

Michael, my sensors are picking up

Two obstacles heading directly this way.

What kind of obstacles?

That kind.

Let's do it, buddy!

We've got to stop those guys before they kill somebody.

Let's go, Mace. Go!

Michael, my scanners indicate

Those maniacs are splitting up.

I'm also picking up a siren coming up behind us.

All right.

Might as well leave them to the cops.

Besides, we got an appointment to keep.

Hey! Nice car. Beautiful car, in fact.

Had her long?

Not long.

Carmichael's the name, auto alarms is the game.

Friends call me Manny. I hope you will, too.

Yeah, well, Manny, I hate to stop you in midpitch,

But I really don't think I need an alarm system.

Well, if you'll just permit me a little demonstration?

30 seconds to break into this baby.

30 seconds. And I'm just an amateur, mind you.

I'll tell you what, I've got an appointment,

But you shoot your best shot.

If you can break into this baby, we'll do some business, okay?

You got a deal.

Hello? Anyone home?

Freeze!

Cindy, call the police.

Aunt Marietta, put that gun down this minute.

Marietta Mattheson.

Devon told me about you.

Devon sent you? Why didn't you say so?

Because somebody had a shotgun in my back.

Oh, I see what you mean.

Um, this is my niece, Cindy.

Hi, Cindy.

Hi.

Excuse us. It's just gotten a little scary around here,

And, uh, we're leery of strangers on the weekend.

Yeah, so I hear. What's been going on?

Filthy rotten hoodlum bums.

Decent people can't stay in business.

This used to be a quiet, lovely town

Until these "weekend warriors" started coming in.

That's when the burglaries began.

We were hit last Saturday night.

We can't even clean the place up

Until the insurance company checks it out item by item.

Who are these "weekend warriors"?

Cindy could help you with that.

They're out-Of-Town car clubs mostly.

They come in every weekend.

And you're convinced they're the burglars.

My aunt is.

So is most of the town.

Cindy doesn't want to believe it

Because her boyfriend is one of them.

Nobody really knows who it is.

Our police chief hasn't even gotten close to an arrest yet.

Huh.

If this has been going on for a while,

It's kind of strange he wouldn't ask for outside help.

Huh! Chief Craig has been here for 35 years

And he's never needed any.

If you don't mind, I'd like to take a look around.

Can you point me in the direction of these "weekend warriors"?

I waitress over at the Sunspot Club.

A lot of them hang out there.

And my boyfriend will be there this afternoon.

Sounds good to me. When do we leave?

I'll just grab a jacket.

Okay.

No luck, huh?

Oh, hi. Back so soon?

Uh,

Well, like I said, I'm an amateur at this,

But those pros, 30 seconds.

Manny, I don't doubt it for a minute.

But thanks anyway.

Hey, uh, look, I'm gonna be in town for a couple of days.

I'd sure like another crack at this baby, so, uh...

I'll catch you later, huh?

Uh, yeah.

Some car. Do you race?

No. Not in the normal sense.

Watch TV?

Uh, no.

You know, from talking to Devon,

I got the idea this was a personal matter.

But from what I can see, it seems much bigger.

Everyone's keeping it quiet. Trying to.

Crime's not good for business.

But just because it happens on the weekends,

Everyone automatically thinks it's the car clubs.

Sounds like you're pretty sure it isn't.

Well, I know it's not Ron or The Rebels.

When I first met him

I thought he had an attitude problem.

But when I got to know him,

I... I realized he's not what people think he is.

He's not anti-Society or anti-Police or anti-Anything.

He just likes cars and he likes to race.

He's not involved, Michael.

Believe me, if he was, I'd know.

Whoa! Spoken like a lady in love.

Is it that obvious?

Only to a trained eye.

. Honey, take me through the night.

. Breakdown, I'm standing here, can you see?.

. Breakdown, it's all right.

. It's all right..

Your car is outrageous. I love it.

These cars aren't too shabby either.

Whose car is that?

Mace Beaudry. He's a local.

Wait till you see Ron's.

He restored it himself.

When did the car clubs start coming to Vista Beach?

About six months ago.

Nobody really knows exactly why or how it started,

But now it's the thing to do.

They come from...

Hey, Cindy, uh,

I ordered a couple of turbo burgers, got an ETA on 'em?

Mace, I'm not even working yet.

When did you order?

Last night.

She's a great little dancer,

But as a waitress you could starve to death.

Play pool?

Never before dark.

Didn't I see you out on the road into town earlier?

Could be.

You don't drive a black hardtop, do you?

Could be.

You really go for the out-Of-Towners, huh, Cindy?

You ought to try a little home-Grown once in a while.

Mace Beaudry.

I guess I should've introduced you.

Well, we've already met, in a manner of speaking.

I'll settle for Ron. Okay.

Boys and babies, lords and ladies,

A big hand for that song. Number 18 this week with a bullet,

Here live from the Sunspot we have Handsome Anson on KCPY!

Your own club DJ? I'm impressed.

Vista Beach's one and only celebrity: Handsome Anson.

He's got his own radio show.

Some things never change, huh?

You've been here before?

No, not here,

But this place reminds me of myself about 10 years ago.

The clubs, the rap, the turbo burgers,

Nothing changes but the sideburns.

Cindy!

I wait all week long to see you,

10 minutes late, you're here with another guy.

That'll teach you.

Ron, I want you to meet Michael, Michael Knight.

Michael, this is Ron.

How you doin'? Good.

He's here to look into the burglaries.

Here?

Yeah. I thought I'd stop by and look around.

See what's happening.

Yeah? What's happenin'?

Wait a minute, I'm not after you or Cindy.

So just relax.

Yeah, but it's kind of hard to relax,

When half the town looks at you like you're Attila the Hun

Comin' in to kidnap the women and burn the huts.

I didn't say that.

Yeah, but nobody says it.

But you're not out dusting for prints somewhere, you're here.
