Herbie Fully Loaded Page #2

Synopsis: Maggie Peyton is the new owner of Number 53--the free wheelin' Volkswagen bug with a mind of its own; she puts the car through its paces on the road to becoming a NASCAR competitor. As a third generation member of a NASCAR family, racing is in Maggie Peyton's blood, but she is forbidden from pursuing her dream by her overprotective father, Ray Peyton, Sr. When Ray Sr. offers Maggie a car as a college graduation present, he takes her to a junkyard to choose one from an assortment of very used cars. Maggie has her eye on an old Nissan, but a certain rusty, banged up '63 VW Bug seems to be clamoring for her attention. To her surprise, Maggie leaves the lot with Herbie. As she prepares to leave town for a position with ESPN News, Maggie discovers that Herbie has a mind of his own--and an alternate route for her future.

- Seventy-five.

- Oh, sold!

I'll make out the papers.

At least we know

the horn works.

OK, Mags.

Tires are good.

Gas is good.

Brakes are good.

Look at that. The speedometer

goes up to 200 miles an hour.

Somebody's got

a sense of humor.

All right, now. Come over

to the garage later.

Have Augie

take a look at it.

Thank you, Dad.

"Please take care of Herbie.

Whatever your problem,

he'll help you find the answer. "

Great.

A fortune cookie on wheels.

OK, let's start slow.

What are you doing?! Stop!

This isn't funny anymore!

Come on, car!

You're a car! I drive!

What is going on?

Oh, my God! No!

- Oh, God...

- Oh, my God.

I'm so sorry.

Let me help you.

Are you OK?

- Maggie?

- Kevin?

God, you look great.

I mean, it's great to see you.

What are you... I haven't

seen you since high school.

- What are you doing here?

- Oh, I just got this car.

My dad wanted to get me

something for graduation.

Didn't you used to drive cars

with a little bit more, uh... muscle?

This car is not for racing.

It's for regular driving.

- For show.

- Yeah.

Oh, man.

You know what? It's not worth it.

I'm gonna take it back to Crazy Dave.

- Good to see you, Kevin.

- Yeah, good to see you.

Hey, Mags.

I could fix it for you.

Oh, no, that's OK.

No. That's what I do.

Kevin's Custom Car Shop.

- Nothing too fancy.

- No. Just the basics.

We'll take him for a test drive,

see what we got to work with.

- Sorry for almost running you over.

- Don't do that again.

Whoa! Whoa!

OK. All right. Easy, Mags.

- Smooth ride.

- Sorry.

Do you know where we

could get some new shocks?

Uh... There's a car show

at the Fairplex.

We could borrow parts

from the Hernandez brothers.

Yeah, I'm not really up

for that whole scene.

What? You used to

tear it up there.

Well, I mean, that was then.

Besides, this bucket of bolts

couldn't make it down there.

Whoa!

That's the Maggie I know!

What are you talking about?

I'm not doing this!

What'd you say?

OK, Mags!

Oh, my God.

It has more horsepower

than I expected.

Are you kidding me?

He just took off.

- He?

- Herbie!

OK, the car's name

is Herbie?

It wasn't my first choice.

Name came with the car.

Let's strip it down,

get rid of old parts.

- Maybe there's something to salvage.

- Works for me.

Go easy, Mags... Herbie.

What are you doing?

- Steering wheel's jammed.

- Left.

I can't turn it!

It's jammed!

OK!

OK! Easy!

Great. I'm being

carjacked by my own car!

OK. Watch the people.

Easy, easy.

Oh! That's the e-brake.

That should be

connected to something.

Oh, good.

They have valet parking.

Oh, man!

Sorry.

What are you doing?

You didn't want to come.

I didn't! It was Herbie!
