Post by bunniefuu »

well i'm not the kind to kiss and tell but i've been seen with fire up i've

never been with anything less than a nine so fine i've been on fire with sally field

gone fast with a girl named bo but somehow they just don't end up

as mine it's a death-defying life i lead i take my chances

i die for living in the movies and tv

but the hardest thing i ever do is watch my leading ladies

kiss some other guy while i'm bandaging my knee i might fall from a tall building i

might roll a brand new car cause i'm the unknown that made redford

such a start

i've never spent much time in school but i totally it is plenty it's true i hired

my body off the bay hey hey i've gotten burned

[Music]

[Music]

eastwood look so fine

[Music]

one thing i'll say kid we get to see a lot of country when we go on these bounty hunts yeah cold i know but i always get

nervous when terry says it's going to be a piece of cake kid mark my words this one is a piece of

cake i don't care if we have to lynch cold

savers we're going to find that son of a g*n and that cousin of his come on get over

here hurry on up [Music]

all right i know savers is here and he's got out right out anyone spot him get on the

walkie-talkies fire off a shot let's go

[Applause]

stop wiggling osborne

come to me osborne i'd have you in leg irons nice way to treat your prisoner better

than the way you treated that town a bunch of farmers hey my folks are farmers they worked hard for everything they

earned ah i never took you for a farm boy munson besides you're jumping to conclusions

i'm not a crook sit down

let's move howie it's posse time legs outside with a mob of people from [Music]

gladstone [Music]

oh no

you're not thinking about turning osborne over to them are you that's not the worst idea the only thing is he's still into my

jurisdiction [Music]

[Music] oh look at that mob this case they might

have the right idea look at it this way cole if he did us what he did to them what do you think we'd do to him if we were them

let me think on that one now kid zebras bring him out we know you got osborne in there what are you gonna do

face the music called they're playing that tune with g*ns

jeff can we talk now we can talk

you look up someone's here listen sivers my gripe isn't with you now step out of the way and let me get

on with my business i want osbourne witnesses saw you nail it

that was in gladstone sheriff you're out of your jurisdiction here you see this is delarosa new mexico osborne stole the

whole gladstone city treasury all 800 thousand we want that money back you just have to

wait for the trial well i'll tell you one thing you're not getting osbourne out of here

let me talk it over with osbourne you just turned him over or we're busting in

[Music]

what you heard what he said you can't turn me on that mob out there they'll string me up well tell them what you did with all their money

and then i don't have the money get in i can't get in there i got close to phobia osborne i designed that small

secret compartment to hide prisoners like you from mobs like them shivers bring them out well it's either

neurosis with us or a b*llet from clegg

savers that's it

what are we gonna do he'll blow an order we'll bust the door down for him

no he's not we've got the road blocked hey take it easy

[Music] poor people kid i don't know if you've noticed but they're trying to lynch us

[Music] hey should we let us board out now yeah a few more bumps

[Music]

see kit i told you it was a piece of cake that kind of cake could k*ll you

[Music]

so [Music]

uh i don't get it cole your truck jumps better than either of these two stunt trucks right

that's right kid your truck is faster than either of these two stunt trucks right

that's right kid your truck looks better than either the

two stun trucks even with painting out the name it's still nicer and shinier right that's right kid well then why are

we going to all the trouble of rigging the stump trucks when yours is ready to go

oh i see say you have three trucks one of them's fixed up the way you like

it the other two belong to the studio and they don't care what happens to them they call you up and they ask you to do

a stunt that's guaranteed to demolish your truck so you paint the two trucks that belong to the studio to match yours

and you still get to drive yours home that's right kid now keep painting yeah

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause] how do you know cult sievers is in there

his answering service told me i checked when i made bail [Music]

i jailed pretty fast osborne it's amazing what money can do jackie boy should get in there and get

this over with not to worry jackie we'll get our chance it's only dawn yeah that's why i hate

show business start so early in the morning

[Music] outfit yeah where's howie uh

he's over by the truck why is something that matters uh this is his helmet i got the wrong one you know speaking of how it's time he

broke loose you got to let him go yeah out of where uh pride a feeling of accomplishment a

pro who can handle this kind of complicated stuff yeah well he will when he's ready ready

why he's learned from the best you i mean don't you have faith in yourself since when does how he needs you to do

his talking for him well he's tried it hasn't worked colt he's been practicing this stunt for

weeks he's got it down cold practicing with my truck no with a stunt truck i've seen him he's

good you know he's ready look even if i let him do it take him 20 minutes to rig up we don't have time they're waiting for us

qatar everyone calls me cutter cutter let me ask you is it really necessary to

have a surgeon standing by 24 hours a day you're damn right it is the first 60 minutes after a

life-threatening accident of the most crucial we call that the golden hour when we can utilize our emergency life-saving

techniques most uh efficiently cutter's terrific of course it would help if he had the equipment he

was promised well we can't always get what we want mr wilkerson we're talking about people's

lives here not commodities anything you want me to do when we get to the accident yeah you can

stay in the ambulance and uh out of the way

how often do i get a chance to talk to a real movie stuntman i just heard this partner the young fellow who was hurt in

the conquest yeah you can better say they're doing emergency surgery i'm kidding i think paul probably

doesn't feel like talking right now

[Music]

and then he said oh my god he's going to k*ll us and that's all you remember that's all

there was it all happened so fast i mean there wasn't any time to look around i don't know what he saw or who

at least after whaley gets out of surgery he's gonna make a cold i know he will

what are you looking for colt i'm trying to find out what caused the accident uh go back

oh stop right there the shot had to come from above

you before jackie boy just stick to the plan

[Music]

they've been in there with him a long time he's strong don't worry yeah oh thank god you're all right

well i'm fine hi did you get through the violence no i haven't been able to go through him thoroughly but uh i just grabbed

anything on anybody who might have a motive for k*lling you this sure looks like a lot

all right let's uh let's run them down especially anybody good with a r*fle uh

sharpshooters dennis watson the dentist

osborne there's no compartment here there's got to be man i was in it

let's find it hello colton's for you

me hello hey sebas this is ernie from ernie

salvage i picked up your truck yeah ernie would you believe there are two guys who want to buy your wreck

or no i wouldn't believe it because it's totaled well maybe but they're willing to pay

can you stall these guys well i'll try and hold until you get over here do the best you can are you okay i'll be

right there hey what's going on okay now gotta show us the compartment in that wreck

yeah hey buddy i don't know anything about any compartment the compartment in sievers truck

now how do we get in hey i i don't think you understand that's not colt's truck it's a stunt

truck it just looks like the real one

[Music] he's not very smart jack

that guy can make us not if he's dead he can't uh terry uh keep going through these

files and just got to be in there somewhere joey do you mind if i use your target no i'll drive slow

i like the way you think jack they won't even recognize ernie when they find him

we're all ernie should have known the salvage business is risky yeah that's correct

my god that's ernie's trucking would still be in there well guilty someday you'll forgive me

[Music]

last week

oh uh that's the uh stuntman that they brought in if i'm not mistaken yes it is uh how's he doing

okay for someone who's been through five hours of surgery five hours does it have to take that long you can depend on it we don't get

overtime

hi jody hi i'm glad you're feeling better thanks any changing howie

he's restless i guess he's trying to say something yeah i can guess what it is what who

did this to him to you yeah

long shots uh can colt bring it out he's still at the hospital

i'll do it you sure you feel all right yeah yeah i'm fine i'm out of here

drive right off the light let's go

you're the one that shot at us aren't you you better believe it kid why i couldn't get near the truck so i

had to get it away from the studio my only problem was that i didn't know there were three of them why this truck i left something in the

compartment

don't worry mr sternhauser i've brought other facilities up to snuff cut cut cut the watchful eye and the

stopwatch get rid of the waste

cold savers buck williams you probably don't remember me but i worked with you a couple of years ago

[Applause] shot yeah i know someone shot the tire

did you see who would work osborne

that never occurred to me then it wasn't you he was after me must have been the truck truck

backup chopper for the center let's go wait a minute this is supposed to be my flight to test the efficiency

of helicopters in trauma work which way to try south

when the company hears about this well you're an efficiency expert you understand probability statistics

and research we're about to show you a dazzling display of predictability and efficiency what

are you talking about dpq what's that demographic

predictability quotient how does it work like las vegas

you mean it's some kind of gamble i'm playing the odds they're all in our favor by predictability there's no wasted

money suppose i could get to the scene of an accident as it happens not after

that would take a fortune teller a dpq

[Music] where are we headed for a little more

privacy then what happens oh i wouldn't want to

run a surprise for you i don't like surprises

this chopper equipped with a cb yeah great put it on channel 19. what's that it's my truck

rendezvous what are you trying to do stay alive one

[Applause] tell me where the key is oliver i'd hate to beat it out of it

i don't know i never found it it was in my truck all along

that's what you were looking for you had me fly all the way here for this

well it is the key to your town's fortune the money osborne soul it's key he hid

in my truck a compartment when you chase me out of town and it is to a safety deposit box

well i don't know what to say well i've got a wild idea try saying

thanks thanks
