CAROL<br />

C.S.? What's that stand for?<br />

JOHN<br />

Chicken shit--that's what it is.<br />

Oh...<br />

CAROL<br />

She looks amazed as she adds the new ticket to a mess of<br />

similar tickets crammed in the glove compartment. The police<br />

car pulls <strong>by</strong> them. John scowls, then roars his engine and<br />

pulls back into the stream of traffic.<br />

CRUISING MAIN STREET--STEVE'S '58 CHEVY<br />

Terry is looking and feeling like he's got it made. He<br />

downshifts and slows for a red light. A very mean-looking<br />

black '55 Chevy--blown, scooped and slicked--pulls up next<br />

to him. The driver, Bob Falfa, has a gum-chewing girlfriend<br />

sitting almost on top of him. Terry challenges the '55 Chevy<br />

<strong>by</strong> revving his engine.<br />

Bob Falfa doesn't even look over. He revs his engine--which<br />

sounds like a cross between a Boeing 707 and a SuperChief.<br />

Terry can't believe it. He quits revving his engine--feeling<br />

deflated.<br />

Terry looks over at the snotty grin on Falfa's girlfriends'<br />

face.<br />

GIRLFRIEND<br />

Ain't he neat?<br />

Terry doesn't say anything and Bob Falfa glares over at him.<br />

Falfa nods slowly.<br />

FALFA<br />

Hey, you know a guy around here with<br />

a piss yellow deuce coupe--supposed<br />

to be hot stuff?<br />

TERRY<br />

You mean John Milner?<br />

TERRY<br />

Hey, nobody can beat him, man. He's<br />

got the fastest--<br />

FALFA<br />

I ain't nobody, dork. Right?<br />

Right...<br />

TERRY<br />

FALFA<br />

Hey, you see this Milner, you tell<br />

him I'm lookin' for him, huh? Tell<br />

him I aim to blow his ass right off
