telling you, man'?

They just ran off.

It was so great.

And I was like,

that's not his hand.

Walk away. Walk away.

I was like, whoa.

Oh, man.

I need you to tune this up.

Yeah, I need it in tip top shape

for this weekend's

Wave Runner competition.

Yeah, we've got a heavy

workload this week,

but I can take

a look at it for you.

Well, you take

a look at it then.

In the meantime,

we'll be out there

smashing it up

in my new Master craft.

Oh, yeah, the green one,

number 25.

It's the green one behind you.

It's so fast.

Yeah, it's nice.

How fast is it, Harley?

It's like a cheetah

on a treadmill. Just...

Oh, I totally know.

Well, let me incline real quick.

You know?

It's like that, bro.

It's like that, bro.

That makes no sense.

What was that'?

He said something.

Are you challenging me, bro'?

Because I see you

in your competition

coming in third, fourth.

I had a messed up ankle, but I could

take you any day of the week.

Oh-ho! Did you hear that?

Any day of the week.

Okay, we can

go out there right now.

Yeah? Yeah.

Yeah? Go ahead.

I can't. I'm working.

You can't because

you know you'd lose.

That's a crow.

It's a chicken-crow, bro.

Billy, anytime after hours.

Yeah, well, after you

tune up my Wave Runner.

Yeah.

I was going to get the yellow.

You were going to get it yellow?

Yeah, yellow.

I like green, Billy. Yeah.

You always make good decisions.

I'll be here about 30 minutes

so why don't you go outside and play'?

Do you even know

what "go play" means?

It means get out of here.

Go be a kid.

Go.

Here it is.

Oh, okay.

It fell off.

Shazam.

Yes!

Oh.

No, I didn't like it.

Okay.

You know, but I mean,

you put in some effort.

So. Well, there's that.

Extra point. That's something.

Trespasser! Let's get him!

Hey, hey, hey. It's okay.

I know him.

Let him prove himself.

So you do any tricks'?

I don't have a bike

like you guys.

He doesn't have a bike.

Eddie, get him

Old Man Kettle's bike.

Oh.

Not sure if he could handle.

Old Man Kettle's bike.

Wait, is this the kid that cried

when he got tossed in the lake?

That's him.

Oh, where are my manners?

Albie, this is Winnie

and Vinny. Hi.

They're my cousins.

Who was Old Man Kettle'?

He's Culver's only homeless person.

Yeah.

He ditched his bike

on the side of the road

before he disappeared.

Guess who found the bike.

Him?

Mm-mm.

I did.

She did. He did.

We did.

Sometimes I see her thoughts.

Yeah, and sometimes it's creepy.

Old Man Kettle

didn't have any teeth.

Legend has it he lost them

riding his bike.

She's a tough ride.

Why don't you go get it for him'?
