The Blues Brothers

Hey!

Well, this is it.

74745053.

What wing?

Maximum wing, Block 9.

Standard release?

Parole, three out of five. Good behavior.

Give me a minute.

One Timex digital watch, broken.

One unused prophylactic.

One soiled.

One black suit jacket.

One pair black suit pants.

One hat. Black.

One pair of sunglasses.

$23.07.

Sign here.

What's this?

What?

This car.

This stupid car.

Where's the Cadillac?

The Caddy. Where's the Caddy?

The what?

The Cadillac we used to have.

The Bluesmobile.

I traded it.

You traded the Bluesmobile for this?

No, for a microphone.

A microphone?

Okay, I can see that.

What the hell is this?

This was a bargain.

I picked it up at the Mount Prospect City Police Auction last spring.

It's an old Mount Prospect police car.

They were practically giving them away.

Well, thank you, pal.

The day I get out of prison,

my own brother picks me up in a police car.

You don't like it?

NO, I don't like it.

Car's got a lot of pickup.

It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic-inch plant.

It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks.

It was a model made before catalytic converters

so it'll run good on regular gas.

What do you say?

Is it the new Bluesmobile, or what?

Fix the cigarette lighter.

What are we doing here?

You promised you'd visit the Penguin the day you got out.

Yeah. So, I lied to her.

You can't lie to a nun.

We gotta go in and visit the Penguin.

No fucking way.

Who is it?

Jake and Elwood.

Come in.

Hello, boys.

Nice to see you.

Please, have a seat.

No, no, boys. Come over here in front of me.

I want to see your faces.

The county took a tax assessment of this property last month.

They want $5,000.

Doesn't the Church have to pay that?

They would, if they were interested in keeping the place.

But they aren't.

The Archbishop wants to sell this building outright

to the Board of Education.

What's gonna happen to you?

I'll be sent to the missions.

Forget it. $5,000? No problem.

We'll have it for you in the morning. Let's go, Elwood.

No, no. I will not take your filthy, stolen money!

Well, then.

I guess you're really up shit creek.

I beg your pardon. What did you say?

I offered to help you.

Mmm-hmm.

You refused to take our money.

Hmm.

Then I said, "I guess you're really up shit creek."

Ow! Christ, Jake, take it easy, man.

Elwood!

Ow, shit!

Jesus Christ! Ow! Jesus Christ! Ow!

Jesus. Ow!

Shit! Goddamn it!

Son of a bitch!

Ow! Hey, Jesus Christ. You son of a bitch!

Oh, you fat penguin!

Fuck this noise, man!

Ah! Ah! Oh! Oh!

You are such a disappointing pair.

I prayed so hard for you.

It saddens and hurts me,

that the two young men whom I raised

to believe in the Ten Commandments,

have returned to me as two thieves

with filthy mouths and bad attitudes.

Get out! And don't come back

until you've redeemed yourselves.

Boys, you gotta learn not to talk to nuns that way.

Jake, Elwood.

Curtis! Hey, man!

You look fine, man!

Good to see you, man!

Hey, buy you boys a drink?

Boys, things are bad.

They gonna sell this place to the Board of Education

and I'll be out on the street.

That money's gotta be in the Cook County Assessor's Office within 11 days.

They wouldn't turn you out, would they?

Shit.

What's one more old nigger to the Board of Education?

Curtis, you and the Penguin are the only family we got.

You're the only one that was ever good to us,

singing Elmore James tunes and blowing the harp for us down here.

Well, the Sister was right.

You boys could use a little churching up.

Slide on down to the Triple Rock

and catch Rev. Cleophus.

You boys listen to what he's got to say.

Curtis,

I don't want to listen to no jive-ass preacher

talking to me about Heaven and Hell.

Jake, you get wise. You get to church.

And now, this week's sermon

is from our beloved, the Rev. Cleophus James!

Come on, Reverend!

Come on, Preacher.

And now, people.

Take your time! Take your time!

And now, people.

When I woke up this morning,

I heard a disturbing sound.

I said, when I woke up this morning

I heard a disturbing sound!

What I heard was the jingle-jangle

of a thousand lost souls!

I'm talking about the souls of mortal men and women

departed from this life!

Wait a minute!

Those lost, anguished souls, roaming unseen over the earth,

seeking the divine light

they'll not find, because it's too late!

Too late! Yeah! Too late for them to ever see again

the light they once chose not to follow.

All right! All right!

Don't be lost when your time comes!

"For the day of the Lord cometh

"as a thief in the night."

Amen.

Say Amen!

Can I get an Amen?

Amen.

Well, well, well!
