Need for Speed Page #3

Synopsis: Framed by an ex-partner for a murder he did not commit, Tobey Marshall, a financially struggling custom-car builder and street-racer, spends two years in jail thinking about one moment. Fresh out of prison he reacquires the fastest car his workshop ever built and sold, and seeks to enter a secretive and extremely high-stakes race known as The DeLeon. His purpose; redemption, recognition from the world of racing and to solve his problems. Yet all this fades in comparison to his driving reason. Revenge. Above all, revenge. This is a story about love, redemption, revenge and motor oil all swirled together

Minimum.

That's $500,000 in your pocket.

Forget about the past, Tobey, hmm?

It's history.

I'm here to make peace.

And money.

Don't answer me now.

Just think about it.

I don't need to think about it.

I'll do it.

I'll get the car here tomorrow.

Okay, um, I just wanna be the first

to take the floor here and ask you...

Have you lost your mind?

You're gonna have us

work for Dino Brewster?

Word?

JOE:
What are you thinking, Tobey?

You don't wanna have anything

to do with that piece of sh*t.

And, look, if this is about Anita,

trying to get her back or something...

Do it another way, homie.

Write a poem or some sh*t. Okay?

I'll help you out.

"Dear Anita,

Nothing is sweeter than Anita"

"I really aneeda... Anita"

(MEN CHUCKLING)

And I just came up with that just now.

Just now!

Yo, forget about

that fool and his turtleneck.

All right? Just tell him you're out.

We're doing fine without him.

We're not.

Okay. We're not doing fine.

Um... Look, uh...

I'm behind on the loan.

That guy from earlier...

That guy is from the bank.

And he's just gonna keep coming back.

Tobey, if you say we need him,

then I'm with you.

Wait. We made five grand tonight.

It's gotta be enough

to make the payment.

What about next month?

We'll figure it out.

We always do.

This time it's different, okay?

(SIGHS)

If you guys don't show up tomorrow

to work on that car,

we're gonna lose this place.

Hey, come on, guys.

This is Carroll Shelby.

This is an opportunity of a lifetime.

We're doing this. All right? For Tobey.

9:
30 tomorrow. Don't be late.

You're cheating, man. Quit cheating!

(LAUGHS) You just can't keep up.

Sh*t!

Here we go.

FINN:
Yeah.

All right, all right, all right.

BENNY:
Where is the rest of it?

We got a lot of work to do.

Yeah.

(LAUGHS)

(HORSES WHINNYING)

(WHINNYING CONTINUES)

(ENGINE REVVING)

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

Do you like that car over there?

- Yeah, it's nice.

- Yeah.

We built that.

Oh. So, you're a mechanic.

(SIGHS)

That was real smooth, Bro.

Hey. Do you like that car over there?

Okay. Excuse me.

We built that.

We're mechanics.

We're not afraid to get our hands dirty.

Do you know what I mean?

Do you like that car over there?

How fast does it go?

Fast.

Very fast. Pete.

Aren't all Mustangs fast?

Well, this one was built by Ford

and reimagined by Carroll Shelby,

the greatest performance car

builder in American history.

She's not from around here, Petey,

so she probably

has no idea who Carroll Shelby is.

But why is it so fast?

It's 900 horsepower, baby.

Is that a lot?

- Are you kidding me?

- Petey.

Look, miss, this isn't the kind of car

you can just go to the mall and buy.
