-Hey! -Whoa...! | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
HORNS BLAST I'm sure it's just a minor problem. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
I'll have us back on the road in no time. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
As far back as I can remember, we've always had the same car... | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
HAPPY CHORTLING | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
Hey, Pal! Come here, boy! (Where are you?) | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
Pal! | 0:01:48 | 0:01:49 | |
Wow! I guess you could say I grew up in this car. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:54 | |
-HORNS BLAST -Sure hope Dad can fix it. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
LOUD BANGING | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
-HISSING -See, the car's sick, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
so we took it to the car doctor. He'll make our car all better. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
-This is bad. Very bad... -What's wrong? | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
The belt's overloading the transmission and the fuel injection. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:30 | |
- Can you fix it? - Can I FIX it? Of course I...can. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:34 | |
- Well...WILL you? - I dunno. It's a big job. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:40 | |
How much will it cost? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
First, we got the timing belt... then there's the head gasket, and... | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
Oh, yeah, the piston rods... Here you go. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
We'll, um, need to think about it. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
Fixing that car will cost more than buying a new one. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
-You mean we're getting a new car?! -No way, DW! -Not a NEW car. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
We can only afford a USED car, but, hey...it'll be new to us. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
A NEW car... | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
Arthur? At the next red light, could you bring me more juice? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
Mom, can we get a camper? Can we? Can we? Ple-ease... | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
DW, we'll have to get something smaller than that. Much smaller... | 0:03:24 | 0:03:30 | |
Sorry, no room. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
SPLUTTERING | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Ah... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
Ay, ay, ay... | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
Dad? Aren't you worried some stuff'll spill back there? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
No, DW, I'm not. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
HE SIGHS | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
What's gonna happen to our car? | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
It's in bad shape. If we can't sell it, we'll give it to the junk yard. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
-The JUNK yard?! -That's what happens when cars don't work any more. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |
BARKING | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
EVIL LAUGHTER | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
NO!! | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
Look at the bright side, Arthur. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
You could get an even better car, like mine, for instance. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:56 | |
Come on, Arthur! If we bounce high enough, we can touch the roof. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
EVIL LAUGHTER | 0:05:05 | 0:05:09 | |
Boys, today is Saturday. Know what people do on Saturday? Buy cars. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:20 | |
Which means on Saturdays, we SELL cars, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
or should I say, ONE of us does. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
I made it as easy as I could, | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
gave my 20-minute training course, offered fabulous sales incentives. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:34 | |
Can anyone tell me what customer's the best kind of customer? | 0:05:34 | 0:05:39 | |
Dunno. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
The kind that HAS to buy a car... today. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
Follow me! Learn from the master. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |
Rule number one - you're selling a dream. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:53 | |
Well, if it isn't the Reeds! My favourite family! | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
David, how are you? ..Jane, it's been too long. And little Kate. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:01 | |
Arthur! In shape for the soccer season. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
-DW, already know which car YOU want, don't you? -You bet I do! | 0:06:04 | 0:06:09 | |
Ed, the reason we're here... I know why you're here. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:13 | |
To buy the car of your dreams. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
The only think I don't know is which of these fine cars will that be... | 0:06:15 | 0:06:21 | |
ALL SHOUT AT ONCE We should've talked about this. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:26 | |
Let's agree we won't buy a car unless we ALL like it. OK? | 0:06:26 | 0:06:31 | |
Rule number two, only ONE person decides which car they buy. ME. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:38 | |
Then we subtract the Special Friends discount, and we get... Bingo! | 0:06:39 | 0:06:44 | |
How do I make a living offering prices like this? | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
Yikes! | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
Rule number three, | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
"Yikes" minus I-K is yes. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:56 | |
-Oh, what's the top of your price range? -A third of THAT. -Follow me. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:01 | |
Pick out the one you love. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Oh, she's special, isn't she? | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
These seats aren't as comfy as the ones in our car. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
..You said we ALL had to like it. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
Sorry, Ed. We'll come back next Saturday and try again. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
For now, we'll use the catering van. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Rule number four, if you get into trouble, call for help. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:49 | |
-Hi, Arthur. Would you like a ride to school? -Great! -JUST Arthur. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:58 | |
-So... This is a pretty nice car, don't you think? -I guess. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:05 | |
Sometimes Dad lets me ride in a car from his lot. Only special cars. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:11 | |
Like this one. Say... | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
-isn't your family looking for a new car? -Yes? | 0:08:13 | 0:08:18 | |
Why don't you buy this one? It's perfect. It looks great on you. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
-I know what you're up to, Molly. -It's time to let go of the past. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:27 | |
Cars die, cars get replaced. It happens every single day. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
-The Crosswires are here to help. -That car's like one of our family. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:38 | |
It's a hunk of metal. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
Come on, Arthur! You LOVE this car. This car will make you popular. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:46 | |
-Pull over. -You'll be sorry, Arthur! | 0:08:46 | 0:08:50 | |
This baby won't be around for long. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
I can take it off your hands for... 200. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
200?! Gee, I was sure I could get more than... | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
Nobody's gonna buy it in this condition. I'll sell it for scrap. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
..Well, OK... | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
200. I'll be by to pick it up tomorrow. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
-What's wrong, Arthur? -Dad sold the car to the mechanic. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
He'll collect it tomorrow, sell it to the junk yard. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-You know what my mom says when I feel like you do? -What? | 0:09:22 | 0:09:28 | |
-"When one door closes, another door opens." -What does that mean? | 0:09:28 | 0:09:33 | |
Dunno. It never makes ME feel any better. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
SPLUTTERING What's that noise? | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
If I knew, I could save the car. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
-Hey! I know who can tell us what's making that sound! -Who? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
You'll find out soon enough. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
Meet you here tomorrow morning. Bring a radio, a telephone | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
and fresh drinking water with lemon. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
-ENGAGED TONE -I can't get through. -Keep trying. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
-'Hello, you're on Car Talk.' -Really? I AM? | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
-'Course. You didn't call for pizza, huh?' -I'm Arthur, from Elmwood City. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
We drove through there once. There was a place called the Sugar Bowl. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
-They made GREAT chocolate malted milkshakes. -I remember! What's up? | 0:10:20 | 0:10:25 | |
-You sound young to be driving. -The family car makes this funny noise. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
-If I don't find out why, it goes to the junk yard. -We'd a '51 Dodge. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:37 | |
With a trunk that you could fit an elephant in. I remember! | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
-You ran out of oil and ruined it. -You never forget the first one! | 0:10:41 | 0:10:47 | |
-What kind of a sound is the car making? -Do the sound! Do the sound! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:52 | |
Um, i-it's kind of like this... | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
Cank-c-c-cank...c-cank... ..Oh! The mechanic! | 0:10:55 | 0:11:00 | |
It goes, "Oh! The mechanic"? What a car(!) | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
No, the mechanic is outside. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
-To take the car to the junk yard! -Mechanic? House calls? Sounds bad. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:10 | |
From the sound you're making, I can't tell what's wrong with it. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:15 | |
Let ME try. SPLUTTERS LIKE CAR | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-I've always wanted to do that. -'Ah! It sounds like a rattle. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:23 | |
-'I think you have a rattle in the exhaust system.' -Dad! Wait! | 0:11:23 | 0:11:27 | |
-I'm on the phone with the Car Talk guys. -The...Car Talk guys?! | 0:11:27 | 0:11:32 | |
-They said it's some kind of rattle in the exhaust system! -'No! | 0:11:32 | 0:11:37 | |
'You HAVE a rattle in the exhaust system. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
-'The things babies play with. Check the tail pipe.' -Check the pipe. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:46 | |
-Check the tail pipe! -The tail pipe? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
-Yours doesn't have one. -In the back, below the trunk. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
Well...I suppose that COULD be the source of your problem. | 0:11:56 | 0:12:00 | |
Mysterious things, cars. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:03 | |
Here, why don't you hold onto this for now? | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
Arthur, you saved us lots of money. You deserve a reward. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:15 | |
What'll it be? Pizza? Ice cream? | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
How about we just go for a drive? | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
HAPPY GURGLING | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
-Everything OK, back there? -Yeah, Mom. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
-It's perfect. -GIGGLING | 0:12:26 | 0:12:30 | |
