"Just another glory rider, I guess." "This was the third episode in the Sun City sectors in the past 27 days." "Jessie, I told you." "The Goose wants me there early." "What for, he didn't say."

"My name's Jim Goose, and everything's gonna be all right." "The Nightrider!" "Hey, Jimbo." " Remember that Code 3?" " Yeah." "Remember him when you look up..." "When you look..." "Nightrider!" "Well, well, well." "Johnny the Boy has done it again." "This time it's a scrubber." "He's never gonna learn." "But we are going to teach him, Bubba." "You are going back for him." "No way!"

"I think they're out there." "Take your time, Charlie." "We got plenty of it." "Good day and good luck." "I can see the Interceptor." "What do you say, Scag?" "Got no place special to go?" "We'd better prep him." "Scag, did you bring your toothbrush?" " You'll have to sit on the Goose." " Why?" "No contest." "Hey, Fif!" "What's going on?" " What happened?" " Let him go, Charlie." "What's he mean, "Let him go"?" "Who's this?" " Keep out of this." " What's going on?" "No one showed, okay?" "Forget it, Charlie." "Just let him go." "Forget it, Charlie." "Just let him go." "No one showed." "No one." "What's he mean, "No one showed"?" "They didn't show." "Nobody!" "The punks didn't show." "The girl didn't show, the townspeople didn't show." "Nobody showed!"

"It's been a pleasure." "Skiffington, go home." "Go." "Goose!" "You can't do anything about it!" "We know who you are, Bronze!" "We'll see you on the road, Scag!" "See you on the road like we saw the Nightrider!" "We remember the Nightrider, and we know who you are!" "Okay." "So long as the paperwork is clean, you boys can do what you like out there."

"Jimmy the Goose, larger than life and twice as ugly!" "Light me, Johnny." "Light another." "This is a threshold moment, Johnny." "Step through." "Toecutter, this isn't what I want." "Light it!" "The Bronze, they keep you from being proud." "Look at him." "He looks silly, doesn't he, upside down?" " Do it for freedom and the Nightrider!" " I can't." " Throw it." " No!" "You scum-sucking trash!" "Throw it!" "I can't stand the pain!" "Max." "Max!" "Hey, Max!" "That thing in there, that's not the Goose." "No way." "I was hungry." "Peanut butter and honey." "I just can't get it clear in my head, Jess." "He was so full of living, you know." "He ran the franchise on it." "Now there's nothing." "Here I am, trying to put sense to it when I know there isn't any." "I'll be all right, once I get it clear in my head." "Fifi." " What's this?" " I'm through." " Again?" " No, not again." " I'm through." "I'm quitting." " Sit down." "No, I didn't come here to discuss it, I came to say it." "I'm through." "Now, just a minute!" "All right, so the Goose bought it." "That's the way he always came at the world." "Off beat." "Max, you'd be the first to admit it was long overdue." "All right, I'll tell you how it is." "You're a winner, Max." "You're on the top shelf and I'm not gonna lose you because of some crazy notion about quitting!" "They say people don't believe in heroes anymore." "Well, damn them!" "You and me, Max, we're gonna give them back their heroes." "Do you really expect me to go for that crap?" "You gotta admit, I sounded good there for a minute?" "Bye, Fifi." "Come on, do you want me to beg?" "Do you want me on my knees, crying?" "Now just a minute." "Give me a reason." "I'm scared, Fif." "Do you know why?" "It's that rat circus out there." "I'm beginning to enjoy it." "What is this, funny week?" "Any longer out on that road, and I'm one of them, you know?" "A terminal crazy." "Only I've got a bronze badge to say I'm one of the good guys." "You know what I'm trying to say?" "I'll tell you what I'll do." "Take off a few weeks." "Grow yourself a beard." "Draw flies." "Just think about it for a while." "If you still feel the same way when you come back, it's okay by me." "Go on." "I'm not gonna change my mind." "Get out of here before I decide to come with you." "Bye, Fif." "Thank you." "You'll be back, Rockatansky!" "You're hooked, Max." "And you know it!" "I've never been able to say things to you, Jess, about how I feel." "Guess I always counted on you understanding." "When I was a kid, me and my father used to go for long walks." "I remember staring down at his shoes." "They were special shoes, brown." "And he always kept them really shiny." "He was tall, and he used to take long strides." "And there I'd be right alongside him just trying to keep up with him." "I don't think he ever knew how proud I felt of him." "Or how good it felt just to be there alongside him." "Even now, when I think back on it, I still feel..." "The thing is, Jess," "I couldn't tell him about it then, but I can tell you about it now." "I don't wanna wait 10 years to tell you how I'm feeling about you right now." "Hello." "Get a load of that!" "We had a blowout a while back." "Raunchy, very raunchy." "What's the donk like?" "Yeah, the donk's fine." "Look, about this tire..." "Don't do much work on these myself, except to scrape them off the road." "Yeah." "Hey, how about this tire?" "Have it fixed in no time." "I can sell you a set of 'lops for next to nothing." "No, thanks." "I can't remember where I got them, but I got them, know what I mean?" "No, we'll be all right just as soon as we get this fixed." " Max?" " Yeah?" "Listen," "Sproggo's talked me into buying him an ice cream, so," "I think I'll see you later." "Sure, there's a shop just down the beach." "They'll appreciate the business." "Sure, thanks." "Toodlepip." " You just trucking around?" " Yeah." "Good time for just trucking." "Wish I could do a bit myself." "Which way you heading?" "North?" "Maybe." "Look what's turned up for Sunday dinner." "Main course and dessert." "My favorite kind:" "Female." "Watch the tongue, lovable." "I've seen him lick his own eyebrow clean." "Must've spent some coin." "Like the sign says, speed's just a question of money." "How fast do you wanna go?" " Max, quick, get in." " What's wrong?" "Just take my word for it, get in!" " What about the tire?" " Please, Max!" "Your tire, man." "Hey, fella, what about your tire?" "Crazy people!" "The world's full of crazy people." "That wagon, was it here?" " Sure, a couple with a kid." " Who are..." "I was just fixing their tire." "They left their goddamn spare." "Not a bad one either." "Who are they?" "A couple, passing through." "Said they were heading north." "Maybe." "You want to drive the car?" "Yeah?" "Well, we wouldn't have a car anymore." "Into the back." "Here you go." "I can still see his face now." "Looked as if he'd just swallowed a brick." "What a mean old lady you are." "Huh, boss?" "That's enough from you, mate!" "Enough." "What's the matter with you?" "What you got there, mate?" "Max!" "Yeah, that's the way I see it, too." "Sure." "It's been nice talking to you." "Bye." "Take it you agreed with him." "They're not worried, I'm not worried." "What about that?" "I figure it's lost property." "If no one makes a claim to it, I say we can forget it." "Sounds okay to me, Jess." "Don't know." "If Ziggy says so, believe me, it's okay." "May's expecting you up at the farm sometime." "You'll have no trouble up there." "Just green grass." "How are you doing?" "I'm getting there." "I reckon you ought to connect the doohickey to the gizmo." "Come here, you." "You touch me with those hands and I'll rip you apart." "No!" "Look at them!" "No!" "May told me about the little beach down by the trees." "Do you want to come?" "Love to." "Except that I've gotta fix the fan belt, or we're never gonna get out of here." "Okay, Tarzan, I'll bring you back some bananas." "Do that." "Jessie." "If you meet Benno down there, don't let him trouble you." "He's only a baby." "Sure, May." " The men." " What men?" "Come on." "Now you calm down and you tell me what's the matter." "Very, very naughty." " Now, you tell May what you..." " May." "May, you call The Dark One." "And you tell him to get here as fast as he can." "Why?" "What's going on?" "I think we've got some hoon trouble." "It's gonna be all right." "Come on, darling." "Come on, Jessie." "Well, let's go into the house." "You've had an awful time, darling." "But it's all over now." "Everything's going to be all right." "I've just got to go and make a phone call and then we'll have a nice hot cup of tea." "The Dark One, and hurry it up, will you?" "It's May Swaisey." "Sprog?" "Oh, no!" "Sprog!" "Well, well, well." "It's our little mother." "That there is Cundalini and Cundalini wants his hand back." "I want my baby." "Tell you what," "I'll swap you." "Please, give me my baby." "Jessie." "Jessie, Jessie." "You've not got a sense of humor." "You've got a pretty face, though." "Awful pretty." "Awful pretty." "I suppose you don't need a sense of humor with a pretty face." "The only trouble is though, missy, if you should" "lose the face..." "Please, don't hurt my baby." "You've got nothing!" "What do you want from me?" " Don't change the subject." " Hold it!" "Right there!" " I hate guns." " Old lady." "Stand back!" " Stay back!" " Woman!" "Stay back!" "Anyone so much as breathes, I'll cheese him!" "Open that door." "Every one of you, in there." "Put the babe on the ground." "Jessie, get the van." "Don't stop." "Just go right through it." "Now what?" " The motor!" " What are you trying to say?" "I don't know, it just died on me." "Get out." "Run!" "Jessie!" "Where?" "Lord, have mercy!" "What do you reckon?" "I'm a doctor, not a fortuneteller." "This your subdural?" " Yes, that's her." " Lot of problems?" "Multiple traumas, spleen, liver, lung, flail chest, left neck of femur, renal shutdown." "Reads like a grocery list." "She salvageable?" "Yeah, sure, we got all her signs back last night." " Relatives?" " The husband." "They lost the kid." "DOA." "Listen, tell him she's going to be all right." "Tell him not to worry." "If he wants, I'll talk to him." "I don't think he wants to talk to anyone." "He's been standing there like a zombie all day." "Bubba Zanetti, is that you?" "You come for the grunt?" "She won't be ready until this afternoon." "Still having trouble with the front forks." "They're mongrels to work with." "You asshole!" "What the molly fuck you think you're doing?" "You and me are gonna talk about the Toecutter." "Never heard of him." "What the Christ are you?" "I wanna know about the tattoo." "I mind my own business, don't I?" "I mean, they'll kill me, won't they?" "I'll say the names, and you say "yes" or "no."" "Nightrider," " Toecutter, Bubba Zanetti." " Yes." "There's more?" " Johnny." " Johnny the Boy?" " Yeah." "Some others." " Where?" "Out at the beaches, looking for fuel." "Are they coming back?" "I don't know." "They gotta get their bikes." " What time?" " For Christ's sake!" " What time?" " I don't know." "Code unspecified." "We have a query locate on a black Pursuit Special." "Unauthorized use by a Main Force Officer." "This is designated as a potential Code 3 Red Alert." "Quit toying, Bubba." "Easy." "I know what I'm doing." "Hi." "This isn't what it looks, man." "I just came down here to check it out, and this guy, he's already snuffed it." "Nothing you could do for him." "Ankle." "It's okay." "What are you doing, man?" "Hey, listen, I had nothing to do with anything going on back there, man." "Listen, man, will you?" "Listen, will you listen to me?" "There were a hell of a lot of crazy people back there, man." "Some kind of bad people." "I'm not responsible for anything." "What are you doing, man?" "What did you say?" "What are you doing?" "Hey, listen." "I'm not a bad man." "I'm sick, see?" "Sick." "What do you call it?" "Psychopathic, you know." "Personality disorder." "The judge, man, he said so." "You're not gonna hurt me, are you?" "Jesus!" "You can't kill me!" "Not for stealing a man's boots!" "He was dead, for Christ's sake!" "He won't need them anymore." "What are you doing?" "I wanna know what you're doing." "The chain in those handcuffs is high-tensile steel." "It'd take you ten minutes to hack through it with this." "Now, if you're lucky, you could hack through your ankle in five minutes." "Go." "You're mad, man!" "You think I look silly, don't you?" "Don't bring this on me, man." "Don't do this to me, please!" "Sweet Jesus." "I was sick!" "Don't bring this on me, please!"
