Flying Cars (2019) - full transcript
Flying Cars is a story about Drew, a frustrated filmmaker stuck at an office job who becomes obsessed with radio-controlled (RC) cars behind his fiancé, Sadie's, back. Drew discovers a cult RC car racing community in the San Fernando Valley and meets a cute racing prodigy on the track, Rachel, who agrees to help him win a jump contest. As Drew sneaks out from work and home to meet up with Rachel, they discover that their matched passions aren't just for their RC cars but for each other. With his wedding fast approaching, Drew's life unravels as his lies -- and jumps -- get bigger and bigger.
All right.
A brief little history
of my toys.
And this is the remote
for my first
remote-controlled car.
I remember I was
still in Minneapolis
at my parents'
apartment.
We built these little jumps,
like tiny jumps off the
curb, but it was just enough
that you could jump over
a recycling box,
or something
like that.
I wanted one of
these things so badly.
I remember this little punk
up the street,
Jordan Hamilton,
he had one
and he
never allowed me to...
bed for some reason,
maybe I was sick or something.
I woke up
and there were these packages.
But then
my first ever clear memory
of getting a toy...
Hey.
I'm your new neighbor.
Whatcha playing?
I don't know,
some monster game.
All right.
Good chat.

Babe, have you seen
the box labeled "Drew"
that my mom sent us?
I don't think this song
actually needs to be acoustic.
- I just...
- Sadie!
What?
Did you see the box labeled
"Drew" my mom sent me?
I thought that was
like, the donation pile.
Oh, goddammit, Sadie.
Babe, your car is like.
It's fine!
- Let's go! C'mon
- It's not fine, it's.
Hey!
Where do you keep your
morning donations?
It's in the back,
what do you need?
It's a cardboard
box, like, this big.
- What's in it?
- Yeah, what's in it?
Everything, my action figures,
my notebooks, my RC car.
Just keep looking,
it's gotta be somewhere.
Most of today's
donations have already
been sent to the
distribution center.
- Yes, Winston!
- Okay!
- Good. Keep looking.
- That's good!
You guys
can't be back here,
this is for employee's only.
Just relax, all
right? It's our stuff.
Just chill.
Just be a second.
Ma'am, you're
not listening to me.
I'll call my boss. You guys
want me to call my boss?
All right, I'm
gonna call him right now.
Oh my god.
Yes!
There
are two people, they're in...
My RC car.
Yeah,
the back room!
This is what I was
looking for.
Okay, cool, let's go.
Yeah, I don't
know what they're doing.
I got it!

Minneapolis,
at my parents' apartment.
I think you should
start with clips of the toys
and then overlay your voice
on top of those clips,
it'll speed things up.
I mean, overall, do
you think I should pitch this
to Arnon in tomorrow's meeting?
Be harsh.
- Uh.
- What?
My uncle
came in, I think, no packages,
he just pulled it
out of his pocket.
I mean, it's not
like a fresh take
on a web series, you know?
It feels more like, uhm.
Like what?
I don't know, uh...
it feels like something that
we would've done in school.
Well then, why don't you
come over next week? Help me.
I'm sorry, sir,
but I'm really busy.
You fucking
liar, you're not busy.
You've never been busy!
Chris, just
stop walking like that
and tell me what's up.
Legally, I can't tell you yet,
but you know that iPhone sci-fi
series I've been working on?
Yeah, "Desert
Pals" or whatever.
"Desert
Friends" yes.
Dude, we got picked up!
We're doing eight episodes.
- What?
- Yeah, I know!
Arnon made the deal to
move the show to TV.
Well, streaming,
you know, but still.
- Holy shit!
- Yeah!
What's this?
I want you to
fix your truck.
Just get a new radiator
or whatever it needs.
It should be enough,
it's like 600 bucks.
I'm not taking this.
This is your money, this
is your new guitar money.
Or, this could cover
the wedding lanterns.
Okay, it isn't mine, babe.
I mean, there's no my money
or your money any more, right?
I guess.
It's kinda terrifying.
What, no.
You know the goal.
We need to start producing our
own steady stream of content.
Right away.
Let's steal something off
YouTube if you have to.
Conference room, let's go.
On it.
So it's obviously
not a secret any more.
We picked up our first in-house
project, "Desert Friends".
Yeah, Drew, you were right
about Chris, by the way.
He's such a weirdo,
but you know,
I think that's what
makes his show so unique.
Yeah, uh, thank you for
introducing us to him.
Of course.
So with that
in the works, we need our
next project ASAP. Nate?
All right, so I saw
this doc about a priest
who becomes part of this
underground kickboxing league.
No no no! It did
great in fests last year,
and me and the filmmaker,
we can make it into...
Next.
Um, okay, page three.
I actually know this director.
He documented the
sex trade in Uganda.
The project was
crowdfunded, so we have...
No.
Okay, so I
know sex trade in Uganda
sounds like, really
fun and all, but uhm...
We need something on
the verge of blowing up.
Steph, anything else?
Nope.
Nothing?
Uh, sir.
I have actually
been watching a lot of
documentaries recently,
so if you wanted,
I could brainstorm...
I'm sorry, could
you reschedule...
...schedule a meeting with
the creatives for Thursday.
All right, I'm on it.
I do have an idea,
though, if you have a sec.
Have you heard of
radio-controlled cars?
It would be like a
TV show where there's
a variety show, you
know, with jumping and...
No, no.
Sorry, sir.
Maybe, um, tell me
about your idea later.
I think
there's something
It keeps leaking, and
I put water in it,
and it's all messed up.
Okay, I'll
look at it. We'll get you
an estimate in about 45 minutes.
There's wifi in the lounge.
Thanks.
You can leave your keys in
the car, please, thank you.
I'm walking to find
a random hobby shop.
I'm hoping they've got
a battery for this baby.
I know it's weird, but
this guy gave me
some of the best years
of my life,
and, I kinda wanna get it
back up and running again.
So I'm gonna document
what it's like
to get back into RC cars.
Yeah hey, Steph?
Yeah, no, I know,
tell Arnon I'm, uh...
...there was a ton of
traffic and I'm just gonna
grab a sandwich.
I'll be back soon.
All right, bye.
I've only
been doing this 30 years,
but here's what I would suggest.
Now, you need to
take a look at this.
This truck's our
bestselling car.
It comes with
everything you need,
fully assembled, so you don't
have to screw around with it.
It's nice.
Is it good at jumping?
It's made for jumping.
Check out the gorilla-ball
suspension in this.
That thing's made for jumping.
That's massive.
You could drop it
off a building.
30 miles an hour.
30 miles an hour?
That's what I just
said, 30 miles an hour.
All right, you got me at a
particularly precarious time.
I need to move some
stuff. I like you.
I'll put you in this
for $295, out the door.
What about this one?
It's a racing buggy.
You don't want a racing buggy!
You don't want it,
it's a heartache.
Racing, like on a racetrack?
Yeah, they got tracks
all over the place,
but it sucks the fun out of it.
How fast does it go?
With the right
gearing, 60-70 mph.
With the charger, with
a controller, battery,
it's gonna be $600+.
Drew?
So I went ahead and
patched the crack for you,
but it's temporary.
Would you replace
the radiator?
Yeah, bro, I would.
I'd replace it for $600,
and I wouldn't charge
you for the patch.
What the hell, I'll take it!
- Here you go.
- No no no.
Not that one.
$550 cash, the rest on my card.
I'm getting the racing buggy.
Oh, did you
get my text earlier
about adding me
on your insurance?
Uh, yeah, yeah.
Why do we have to get
that maternity thing,
that seems like a waste of $300.
Well, people have been
known to get pregnant,
you know, when they get married.
Okay.
Sorry, anyway, you
were saying Arnon's
ready to hear a
pitch, or something?
Well, technically no,
but Steph and Nate were
just pitching such garbage,
and I thought about
what you said, you know,
not really, you know,
going with like
a fully-formed idea,
so I just blurted out
the thing about RC car racing.
Like from when you were 13?
I know, I know, it's...
He's trying to like,
get me legit shows
and tours and you're half-assing
some shit about RC cars.
I know, I know, it's stupid,
but Arnon actually kinda
wanted to hear about it,
so I started to research it,
and it turns out that
RC car racing
has this huge kind of
following.
Don't bring up toy cars.
Nobody is gonna take
you seriously.
Fine, okay.
Did you take your truck in?
Yeah.
Was I right, it
was like $600, yeah?
Almost exactly.
That's what I thought.
I'm gonna go, work on
the garage.
After you've
thoroughly washed the body,
you wanna make sure it's
completely dry,
and then your...
Are you coming to bed?
Just go to bed
without me for once.
What are you doing down there?
I'm just cleaning up.
Hey, Chris, what's up, man?
Nice.
Uh, I was calling to see if
you wanted to maybe join...
No way, pre-production.
Sweet.
Yeah, all right, bro.
All right, here we are.
My car's all decked out,
looking real badass.
And, I'm about to do my
first-ever RC car race.
Welcome
to round five
of the JBRL Racing League,
Southern California's
premiere radio-controlled
off-road series!
It's a perfect day out,
and we have top competitors
from every major team, some
coming in from across the globe.
After last week's
race in Coyote,
most of our classes are neck
and neck as we make our way
to the world championships
next month at Desert Thunder!
Hey, are you checking in?
Uh, yeah.
All right, what class?
Class?
Two-wheel drive, four-wheel
drive, short course?
Uh, it's, uh...
It's an RC8B3,
four-wheel drive.
You do know that
1/8-scale buggies
are like the most
competitive, right?
You're saying I'm screwed?
How should I know?
How's it going, man?
Hey man, can I film you
tinkering around with your car?
Got a lot of new trick parts
on them, it's less weight.
Works really good.
You think you've got
the fastest car out there?
Absolutely.
So what's the
deal with that one,
why is that battery bigger
than the other ones?
This is a 14.8 volt
and this is like 7.2.
What we do is we
put these in series
to make them the same voltage.
Our radios, they
have telemetry,
so we know what RPM
our batteries are at,
what our battery voltage is.
Are you guys better
than your parents?
No.
No, but you'd like to try?
Still working on it.
Who's the
best one of you guys?
- I am.
- I am.
Oh-ho-ho, that
sounds like fighting words.
Let's
get those drivers
back out to the track
to turn marshal.
Next up is our first 1/8-scale
buggy qualifying race.
This one is sure to be close,
with Carhart, Chris,
and Hanson all vying for
the top spots in
today's eight-man race
later this afternoon.
Here we go, here
we go, here we go!
Good luck,
drivers, we're racing
at the sound of the tone.
Austin, Briggs
right on the back of Carhart!
Oh! The newcomer shoots
right into the first turn!
Rachel Carhart maintains
the lead over the triple.
Hanson and Miller follow
close behind.
Once again having some
trouble, off the ground
and making his way around as
we approach the half-line.
Brighton ready to
follow through...
Oh! Brighton's car is
upside down again!
And the battle is between
Carhart and Forenza,
getting tighter as we come
back around the straightaway.
Keep it clean, you can't
win the race on the...
Well, that was a disaster.
Yeah, um, no,
we're good on the...
we're good on the 9x12,
but 500 of each of
the other ones.
Yeah, and if you have,
I don't actually know
what the sizes are for it,
um...
the square ones,
the 6x6?
Yeah, perfect.
Oh, hey, yeah,
I'll call you back, bye.
Hey, Arnon, I was just wondering
if I could get five minutes
of your time next week.
It's about the
RC car racing.
I've been doing some research
and it...
Nate and Steph
finally have some leads,
and with "Desert Friends"
in pre-pro,
I need you supporting
both of them, all week.
Cool.
I replaced the
servo gears, changed the wires.
I did a lot of work.
I need to return this,
it's broken.
You opened it, we don't
take returns on opened stuff.
I told you that.
You want a replacement part,
I'll sell you a
replacement part.
I'll pay a restocking
fee or something,
I just need to get
my money back.
No.
No no no, hell no.
Come on.
I'll give you $250
for everything,
including the charger.
You crazy?
I just paid $600 for this.
Well, it's what I can do.
How much for the
replacement part?
Sorry.
You suck.
Sorry about that.
No, I don't care if
you run me off the road,
I just mean you
suck at driving.
I know.
So you blow $600 on
the fastest buggy,
and realize it actually
takes talent? So now what,
like, sell it on
Craigslist or something?
Do you think I could
sell it on Craigslist?
Maybe with some practice
you'll be as good as me
in like six years.
But you're pretty good
at jumping.
No, I'm done.
I already spent wedding
lantern money on this,
so I need to get
rid of it and
get back as much money
as I can.
So I think you
should jump your buggy.
You mean like, keep it and
play with it at lunchtime?
No, I mean like
become the world's best
RC car jumper there
ever, ever was.
That's like an official
title or something?
No, not yet,
but it should be.
You see this?
"Send us your raddest
RC car jump footage.
"Video with the most
votes wins $200 cash."
That wouldn't even cover
my cell phone bill.
"Top three videos
get a chance to compete
"in the first annual
long-distance jump off
"Desert Thunder Championship
June 24th."
So?
So I get invited to
this race every year
'cause I'm the best
girl racer in the state,
but people like you that
don't really have any skill,
I don't know.
Just thought it was
crazy they're offering
Yeah, Desert Thunder,
that sounds just delightful.
Whatever, dude.
I have 20 minutes
left for lunch.
I'm so happy for you.
Teach me how to jump cars.
Like, now?
I wanna win that
video contest thing.
Uh...
Okay, yeah, you have
to learn some control.
Screw that,
I don't wanna race!
I just wanna
film the cars flying.
Right, but you have to go
in a straight line for that.
I know, I know,
you can teach me how.
Please?
Okay, but not here.
All
right, video log #184.
It's just a number, it
doesn't really actually
have any relevance to anything.
Um, I'm here...
I just, um...
I just met this girl
at the track, and um...
it's, um, she just,
she just, uh...
What's your name, anyway?
Rachel.
I'm Drew.
Watch out!
Hey, we should bail.
You wuss.
Nice!
- Dude!
- What!
What the hell was that?
That was amazing.
You should do the big one.
Bigger than this?
You wanna
do the big one!
You're crazy, dude.
Do it,
do it, do it!
This shot is
going to be amazing.
No, you have to learn how
to do the small jumps first.
No no no no! The small
ones were too small.
That was the problem.
No, listen.
Do you wanna be a big jumper?
Then you can't be a jackass.
People who jump RC cars
usually are jackasses.
Well, how so?
They launch their
dumb monster trucks
onto hard, flat ground,
and they think it's funny
to just destroy their
cars, and it's not funny.
It's sickening!
So you're saying I do
need a monster truck.
No, I'm saying that if
you do the jump right,
then a light,
fast buggy is the best.
If you were to take
your bike, do this ramp,
completely miss the
landing, and land, like,
way over there,
what would happen?
I'd probably blow out my rim.
Exactly! It's the same
thing with this buggy.
So you have to land it
down the landing.
Not on the hard ground,
nope.
You should want to jump
these over and over.
Like these dorks,
like BMX, like motocross!
You dress smart, be smart.
Jump smart!
Okay, got it.
Jump it, jump
it, jump it, jump it!
Okay, here we go!
- Hell yes!
- Yeah!!
We've got the natural
cement, the reclaimed wood.
You see the open pipes up there?
Now this, this is the
centerpiece of the whole piece.
This drum, I actually
got it in Africa.
Why don't you join me
in my office? Thank you.
[phones ringing and chattering
[RC car motor
whirring on computer}
Hell yeah!
Woo!
Uh, here's the promo footage.
Thanks.
Arnon said you could
cut something by tomorrow?
Sure.
Okay.
All
right, here I go!
Hell yeah!
Babe, you need to
try this cake
so we can put in
our order already.
I'm taking a crap,
get outta here!
Yeah, you're almost
my husband get over it.
I don't care.
Don't you have a sound
check to go to or something?
The baker said that our
guests are supposed to know
that the flavor we
chose subconsciously
best represents us
as a couple.
Oh my god, seriously?
I think the red velvet
is the winner.
Yeah, yeah, I know, because
the red matches your lips
and the velvet matches the...
I just don't care at all.
I can't even come up with
something, just please leave.
Forget it!
Close the door, please!

Hey.
Hey.
Campus seems pretty cool.
People come here to die.
So I was thinking,
you really don't need
to waste your money
at a hardware store.
What do you mean?
Go, go!
Drive, drive, drive, drive!
Rachel! Go, go go go!
Drive, drive, drive!
Fuck.
All right, this is a
lot more work
than I thought it
was gonna be.
I got the wood...
building this jump
in this friggin'
parking lot.
I don't know where
Rachel is, she just left.
I need to get back to work,
it is not even noon yet
and I've been on lunch
for 90 minutes.
Uh, so that's my day
so far. Oh shit.
So I've determined
that I like you.
How did you determine that?
'Cause I've never known
someone to construct
their own RC car ramp before.
Really?
It's almost done.
I found the most perfect
landing ever over there.
Let's jump this shit.
All right, so it's gas
to lean back,
brake to go forward?
Uh, yeah, pretty much.
Here we go.
All right, go!
Brake!
All right, a little
less brake next time.
No no no! We gotta go,
we gotta go.
Why?
Hey, move it back
further, man!
Do it again!
That was awesome.
I gotta see it again.
On the first go!

All right, another fun
little lunch session.
I think you guys are gonna
really like this video.
I did break my a-arm,
though.
Luckily Rachel gave me
some spare parts.
It's gonna be great,
though.
Here we go.
Oh, nice.
Are we happy with how
these promos turned out?
Nate's lead just went away.
Shoot.
Um, all right, well, I
can make some phone calls.
Close the door for a sec.
Where have you been going?
Look.
I, uh... I wanted to get
together a nicer edit
before I showed you this, but
this is what I've been doing.
I've been researching
and filming the RC world.
I think it's gonna be huge.
I could put an edit
together nicer than this,
and if you wanted me
to, I could present it.
Drew.
Get the fuck back to work.
Still organizing?
Never-ending.
I'm way too tired
to cook anything.
The kids were on speed
today or something.
Um, we need to talk.
Yeah, I just, I need to
change out of these clothes.
Yeah, I know, it's
gonna take one second.
Arnon emailed me, if
that's what it's about.
I know he did.
Okay, well, where have you
been going at lunch, Drew?
That's so weird.
How is that weird?
I've been taking... God forbid
...an actual lunch break,
and then everybody
starts treating me like...
Okay, well, I just don't
get why you're lying about it.
Anyway, we can talk
about it later,
I just, I need food.
Um, I'm taking a
half-day tomorrow
to catch up on some
wedding stuff.
Drew.
Hm, sorry, what?
I said can you help
me tomorrow at lunch,
'cause we're gonna be
gone all weekend.
I can't take lunch breaks.
That's what I'm telling you,
this job is soul-sucking.
Seriously?
I find that really weird,
because I watch kids,
like, all day long.
It's not like I have all
this time to write music.
It's like you have
all these showcases,
and then that Arizona gig
right before the wedding,
and then the freakin'
East Coast Fall Tour.
It seems like you spend a lot
of time doing what you love.
The day you've all
been waiting for.
The day where Rachel
and I go big or go home.
Now, if you like this video,
or even love this video,
please, please, please
vote for it,
and vote for it as much
as you possibly can.
Hey, we're still in fourth?
Have you seen number one?
Go go go!
Yeah, I know, it's
painful to watch.
I mean, what the hell?
They're jumping a car
into a lake.
Maybe your jumps
just have to be bigger,
and your landings
have to be smoother?
No, no, no.
Look, I had an idea, okay?
We need more shock value.
Check this out.
Bam.
It's a house.
Yeah, we jump the car
over my house.
You're a dumbass.
What?
Also, why did you not tell me
that your dad owns this place?
Well, that's exactly why
I can't leave it unattended.
Oh, come on.
I'll bring you right back.
I mean, no offense, but
this place is pretty dead.
Yeah, because we're like
one sale away
from going out of business.
- I'm sorry, but look...
- I thought you didn't wanna
be like those idiots.
You're not getting it,
all right?
This is like... think
skateboarding tricks,
but with RC cars.
Nobody is doing this.
It'll be incredible.
Amazing.
Pretty please.
I'll buy you a Big Gulp.
Fine.
There we go, a
little bribery, bam!
So you really wouldn't
go to Desert Thunder,
even if you got invited
to do the record jump?
A week before my wedding?
Yeah, I keep forgetting
that you're getting married.
Is it a fun event?
Yeah, I hear it is.
I thought you got
invited every year?
I do, but I'd never be able to
drive up there on my own.
Maybe when I move out.
When are you gonna move out?
Never.
Why don't you just
ask your dad to take you
and get somebody to watch
the shop for the day?
I told you, my dad
hates me racing.
Screw that.
Just...
just ask him.
Maybe if he's in an
extra good mood today,
I will try asking him.
Hey, do two of you wanna
go film in the back?
Yeah!
Cool, they're rolling.
Let's do this.
- Fuck!
- Oh my god
Holy shit!
We got it!
We got it, it landed!
That was amazing! Wow!
Hey! Say something
to the camera!
This is the greatest day
of my life!
Be careful!
There's a car trying
to come through.
Drew!
There's a car!
Is that the fiancée?
Should I walk home?
Hey, I was kidding!
I'm already late, you have
to take me back to the shop!
Leave me alone.
Babe.
Open the door.
Don't babe me, please go away.
We need to talk.
I said leave me
the fuck alone!
I get it, you're upset.
I can just keep
picking the lock.
If you need any help with
the wedding stuff today,
I'm around.
Hey.
Holy shit.
You scared me.
I need that drive.
Uh, yeah...
Thank you.
I'm sorry, what am
I supposed to do now?
I don't know.
But did Arnon tell you
anything?
No, we're all
on set today.
Drew,
hey, this is Brian Lutes
from Team Associated.
Congratulations on winning
the video contest, dude.
Holy shit,
that house jump?
Ha! We're freaking out
over here!
Gimme a call back
and we can chat
about tomorrow's jump contest.
We're gonna take a break
from racing at noon
to have the jump contest.
Hey, Sadie.
Can you just turn on
the lights and come out?
♪ Ah ♪
You're like a dumb brick.
I'm not upset because I
didn't get wedding lanterns,
which these aren't
even wedding lanterns,
these are just shitty lights.
Okay, I'm pissed because I
don't know where you've been
or what the hell
you've been up to.
Look, I, look, I know, I know.
I've been wanting to show
you this for a while.
I've been, I've been filming
and editing RC car races.
I mean, it's like what you said,
it's the next step of my career.
You have no career, okay?
You are 26 and you literally
have nothing going for you.
I'm so sick of giving you
advice and finding jobs for you
and literally holding your
hand through everything.
I'm worried that you're never
gonna get your shit together,
which honestly makes me really
worried about our future.
What, so you don't want
me to come this weekend?
No.
And that toy car looked
really expensive.
How'd I miss that on our
bank statement?
I just, uh...
I patched the radiator.
What, speak up!
I bought it with the
repair money.
You spent my $600
on a toy.
I thought you said
it was our money!
I honestly need
this weekend to decide
if I ever wanna see you again.
Sadie.
Hey, Chris.
Oh my god, it's so big!
Dude!
Look at the girth
on this thing, man.
It's above average.
Dude, wait til you see
what's inside the studio.
Can we go in there?
Let's go.
Sir, sir! The
enemy is fast approaching!
I don't advise you
go into the asteroid field
until we get the proper
guidance systems.
It's too late,
we're going in hard!
Oh... so fun.
Do you think I
should tell Sadie
before or after the wedding?
I mean, I'm just
trying to figure out
the right thing to do,
man.
Being honest doesn't
mean, you know,
dumping all your
thoughts or bad feelings
on your girl. I mean,
no one can handle that.
So like, is it okay
to hide the truth,
if it wouldn't do
anything anyway?
Of course.
It's like, you wouldn't
want her to confess
every time she thought
another guy was hot, right?
Today's a big day.
I'm going to Desert Thunder.
I'm pretty excited.
Sorry about the shitty
quality of the video.
Some girl stole my GoPro.
There's the pinion gear
that I'm gonna be replacing.
Shell is ready.
We have this baby, still
gotta do some tweaks on that,
but we should be good.
Hello?
Hey, is Rachel there?
Hey, just wait outside,
I'm almost ready.
Actually, you can go
around back.
Hey!
I'm over here, loser.
Cool bike.
You good?
Okay, pack these.
Rachel Catherine Carhart.
I like that, it's elegant.
R.C.C.
Yeah.
Wait, RC Car... hart?
No comment.
RC Carhart!
How did I not know
that your name is RC...
It's my name, Drew.
Pack my shirt, leave me alone.
You were destined to do this.
- I was!
- Oh my God.
I can't believe it.
Chill out, it's just my name.
Can you believe that?
RC Carhart!
RC!
- No!
- RC Carhart!
You're not even packing right!
We're never gonna leave.
You have my shark.
- It's my good luck shark!
- I'm in shock, I just.
He's mine, and so's my
shirt, and so's my name.
Leave me alone, Drew.
You're making me
very self-conscious.
Black or white?
Uh.
Just kidding, duh, black.
Whoa, hey, whoa,
what are you doing?
What?
Nothing.
Fine, turn around.

So this is like,
my first ever road trip.
This is a
road trip now?
Or, it's not a road trip.
Sorry,
it's a road trip.
So I know this is none
of my business, but like,
it's super weird that you're
getting married in a week.
How so?
I don't know, like, is
your fiancée cool with you
hanging out with another
girl and going on, like, a...
- Road trip?
- Yeah, exactly.
Just another girl, road
trip, alone, without her.
It's just like... I know
I'm not like cute
or desirable or anything, but...
Hold on one second.
We got into a huge
fight last night.
What, we're not talking now?
I don't know, dude.
You're just, like, totally
lying to her like it's nothing.
How am I lying to her?
I dunno, I don't know much,
but that's just
like, shady shit.
But forget I brought it up,
I'm sorry.
We'll just talk about
something else.
Fine, look, I feel bad.
I just...
I feel like there's
some things that we...
That I don't need to
tell my girlfriend.
Oh my god, all right,
we're definitely
changing the subject and
from now on,
we just talk about RC cars.
I actually have an idea.
What?
What are we doing, drive.
I don't get it.
Can this piece of shit
truck go faster than 50?
This is a terrible idea!
No, it's gonna be awesome!
Go faster!
I'm trying, my car can't.
Holy shit.
I'm doing it!
Watch out,
don't lean out so far.
We're gonna have
so many views!
Hey, someone's coming!
They think we're crazy!
Drew,
you're last up,
and you have two attempts
to clear Matt's record
of 95 feet.
Do we leave the ramp where it
is, or start a little smaller?
I'm gonna go for the
win on the first attempt.
Nice confidence, man,
I love it, woo!
We'll give him some space,
give him some space.
Whenever
you're ready, Drew.
All right,
that is tragic.
Hey, can we get some
people to help him
get his car back together?
Oh my gosh.
Tragic, tragic.
I'm done! I'm done.
Does anyone have a spare car?
Uh, does
anybody have a spare car
just lying around for him?
This is really, um...
No, no! No way!
What the hell are you doing?
You race in 30 minutes.
No, it's not up to you.
My car was always faster
than yours anyway.
I can't handle the pressure.
What is up with all
these cameramen?
Stop it, all right, I lost.
No! You have another shot.
Get outta my way!
This will
be his final attempt,
using a replacement car
...his girlfriend's RC8B3.
She's not my girlfriend!
Correction, Rachel Carhart
is not his girlfriend.
I'm getting married next week.
Oh,
sorry, ladies,
Drew's getting
married next week!
Whenever
you're ready, Drew.
Ah, well,
I guess that's the
end of the jump contest
and we'll get back to racing.
Just remember that
we have 2 hot dogs
for only $2, benefiting the...
Hey, wait,
where are you going?
My race is about to start!
Yeah, what car
are you gonna use?
Some guy said I could
use his old one
if I use my motor.
Yeah, cool, well,
do that,
and then get a ride
home with the cameraman.
Are you just
gonna leave me here?
I'm just done with it,
all right?
I'm done with all of it.
Are you gonna come or not?
Fine.
No, wait wait wait!
Okay! fine!
Dude, is there something
wrong with your car?
Is there a word worse
than fuck?
Oh, god.
Hey, what the hell?
Drew, what are you doing?
Hey, can you just
stop and talk to me?
Drew, what are you doing?
Stop!
It's the videos. I
gotta delete the videos.
No, Drew, leave
the videos alone.
- Delete.
- Don't.
- Delete.
- Don't do it.
Don't touch the videos!
Get away from me, all right?
They're my videos!
People love the videos,
what are you talking about?
Oh yeah, thanks, thanks
a lot, hobby shop girl.
Right, your fiancée
probably doesn't even
know you're here, does she?
Clearly you don't
wanna get married.
Of course I do.
I love Sadie.
I hate that name.
Sadie, Sadie,
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
Sadie, Sadie!
What, did it crack?
Oh, it's wonderful,
it won't even turn on.
Thanks.
I'm sorry.
Can you please just admit
that this was
always something
more than RC cars?
Are you kidding me?
- Just admit it.
- No.
Say that you like me, Drew!
What, are we 12 now?
Well, you're sure
acting like it, yeah!
Yeah, fine, okay,
obviously, I love you!
I mean, no guy spends this
- amount of time with a girl...
- You love me?
Yeah, what?
Dude, I...
I know.
Just skipped right on
past like, then?
This is obviously just
some sort of fantasy.
I'm on this path with
Sadie, you know,
this specific route, and...
I gotta be a man and I
have to stick it out!
This is so messed up.
None of this is
funny at all!
You're such a loser, Drew.
I know.
So, the mechanic says the
car's not gonna make it home.
Offered me $300 for parts...
...so, I'll sleep on it.
Sleep on it where?
I don't know, a motel.
That's so true, and like,
his suit was kind of
like that same vibe, too.
Like it was just too much.
Where do you
buy that suit?
Where do you get...
like, I've never seen
a store that's like.
I don't know, but
you should get one.
- Yeah, you like that?
- Uh-huh.
The motor and the
speed control are fine,
it's the fucking front end.
Yeah, my shocks and my
linkage are just done.
Hey, can I see the purple
one that's in your hand?
- Sorry about that.
- Thanks.
Stealing all my tools
over there.
Your dad's calling.
You're not gonna get it?
It's not gonna get
better until I move out.
Does he know that
you came along with me?
I'm sure he does.
Will he be pissed?
Uh, honestly?
He will most likely
call the cops.
Wait, really?
I mean, what's the deal?
My mom wrecked him.
But screw it, I'm gonna
move out and get a real job,
and get my own place, and just
put everything into racing.
And, it will be great.
Hey, what the hell?
Did you sleep?
Not very well.
Getting close.
God.
It's a left up here, man.
What?
It's a left up here.
No, Mom, that feature
doesn't even exist.
You can't find people
on their phones,
like, you can't
find where they are.
He's here.
Oh my god, where were you?
I was at a RC car
race a couple hours away,
and my RC car broke, and
then my phone shattered,
and then the engine
in my truck exploded.
Jesus.
How did you get home?
Bus.
It was the worst
weekend of my life.
Um, Mom, yeah, he's here.
No, he's fine.
No, he didn't stay out at
a strip club all night.
Mom, I'm gonna
call you back later.
Okay, bye.
Jesus.
God... when you... when you
didn't text me back, I just,
like, I panicked,
and I thought maybe
you were bailing
on me or something.
No.
I'm sorry I've been
suffocating you,
and I feel like we
always just talk about me
and my career, and I just want
you to know that I'm really...
Babe, can we talk
about this later, please?
Yeah.
Okay, but I just
wanna say that
I want you to have
hobbies and I'm sorry
if I wasn't interested
in RC cars.
You know, they still sound
really lame to me.
But, I shouldn't judge you,
and you shouldn't have to
make up some bullshit story
about how it's for work.
Mm, work, yeah, it's a
whole different story.
Why, what happened at work?
No, nothing, nothing, nothing.
Really?
Keep on going.
That's it, really.
I just... sorry I was a
bitch on Friday, and...
...I just want you to know
that I'm all in.
Okay.
I gotta close my eyes
because they literally
feel like they're gonna explode.
You wanna go and
get some food or something?
I'm starving.
Who's Rachel Carhart?
Who?
Oh, let me see.
Oh, babe, she... I went
to the RC track yesterday
and she tagged me in some
photos, it's nothing.
But who is she?
It's some chick who
works at the RC car track.
It's... I don't even know her.
So why is she posting
photos like this
right before our wedding?
I don't know why.
Seriously, I don't know.
She's your friend on here!
Yeah, everybody's
friends on here!
It's nothing. I've talked
to her like once or twice.
Okay, but let's keep looking.
And, there's like a whole casual
fucking road trip in here!
No, look, the thing is... okay.
She's an RC car racer and she
needed a ride to this contest.
Seriously, it was nothing,
it was not a road trip.
No, no. Oh my god!
That was her! At
our fucking house.
Last week when I caught
you trying to jump the car
and you were supposed to be
at work and that... it was her!
I don't...
Like I wouldn't notice some
cute girl in our driveway.
- Okay, look, babe.
- No!
No, seriously, it's not...
It's nothing, all right?
We're friends, yes! Okay, we're
friends, I admit it, but...
Oh my god, stop lying to me!
I'm not lying. I'm
seriously not lying, okay?
But you just, you have
to understand, all right,
that everything is
really heavy right now,
with the wedding and
with work and stuff,
so I wanted to have some fun.
I mean, okay, wait,
no, not fun, but like,
I wanted to let loose, okay?
So I went to this contest,
and I don't know
how to tell you this,
but Arnon fired me, all right?
So, when I went to the contest...
Do you know that last
week I came to your work
to try to surprise you at
lunch, and your car was gone.
You were with her,
weren't you?
With Rachel.
Maybe, I don't know.
God, Rachel, I hate
that name! It's such...
Sadie, I know, hey.
Hey, listen, listen, listen.
Look, you have to
trust me, okay?
It's over. It's done.
I'm yours, all right?
I'm gonna be the man
that you want, I swear.
So nothing happened with her?
Oh my god!
Sadie, no, it... Look, okay,
Sadie, Sadie, can you just,
please...
just listen to me, okay?
Where are you going?
You love this car so much,
huh?
Sadie, please.
Just take it easy, ma'am.
I'm looking for Drew
Brighton, does he live here?
Yeah, what's going on?
Rachel Carhart has been
reported missing by her father.
She's just my friend.
Sadie, what's going on?
Her father
said she ran away with you.
- No.
- Is she here?
- No, she's...
- No, just me, his fiancée.
What'd you do, you probably
raped her, didn't you, Drew?
Listen, maybe you
should come downtown
and answer a few
questions for us.
Yeah, sure, fine.
Can I get a ride?
Sure.
Hey, man,
her dad finally called.
I guess she wandered
home, but she's safe,
so you're free to go.
Yeah, yeah, no,
Mom, I got it, thank you.
Yeah, I don't know,
it's a nice,
standard rental car,
you know?
No, Mom, look,
it's not her fault, okay?
Yeah, she just left,
look...
I fucked it... sorry,
I screwed up, okay?
I know, Mom,
look, don't cancel the
flights yet, all right?
I'm gonna try to talk
to her tonight.
Alison, please.
I know Sadie's there, I just
need to talk to her a second.
Hey, asshole!
Catch.
Yeah, thanks, Sadie.
You never even
wore this thing!
Yeah, five years of editing
and shooting experience.
Bar mitzvahs and weddings?
Uh, I'm not sure I'm the
guy who should be
editing wedding videos.
Yeah, today.
Yeah, oh, I'm gonna have
to think about that.
Can I call you back?
Thanks.
Chris, what's up, man?
Yeah, I wanted to come
by and see you film.
You're sleeping?
I thought
you'd be... wait, what?
Wakey wakey,
hands off snakey.
Dude, the place is trashed.
Hey, man.
Hey, dude.
Saw you, uh, rented out my
room to some real winners.
They, uh... pulled
the plug on my show.
Just like that.
Just... it turns out
another network
already had a
sci-fi comedy lined up.
It was pretty much
the same concept.
- Bastards.
- Oh, dude.
Shit.
Hey, what'd you
do this weekend?
Dude, this is insane.
I know.
- 80 feet into cement.
- Right?
And, if I would've landed it,
it probably would've been a
world record or something.
Do you wanna move back in,
though?
I could totally kick
these guys out.
No, no, no. I'm good, man.
I'll probably end up
moving back to Minnesota.
Ew, no!
No no no no, like,
with your parents?
A guy offered me this today.
I could be a wedding
video editor.
Minnesota sounds better.
I know, right?
- It's depressing.
- It is.
Talking to him on
the phone, too,
just.
What, so you're
not gonna take it?
I dunno.
Should I?
Well, dude, give me their
number if you don't want it.
Just relax,
let me think about it.
Pull out your phone.
You got the number right now?
You're such a little
scavenger, man, god!
Give me the number, man.
Hey, Dad.
Yeah, sorry I haven't
called in a while.
Sadie!
I can't hear you, stop yelling.
I... what are you, drunk?
So where am
I taking you?
Alison's?
No.
So then where am I going?
Sadie.
Stay with me.
I just wanna go home.
Hey.
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie.
What?
You were right.
Okay? You were right
about our dumb house.
Our terrible jobs.
And, uh...
I can't imagine
my life without you.
Uhm...
I want you to come
on tour with me.
You know, we still have time
to be young and be stupid
and poor and have fun and...
I don't wanna do it alone.
I think you should go.
Babe.
You gotta go on tour. You
gotta do what you love.
And, I...
...I need to figure out my life.
I love you, babe.
Take me back to the party.
Alison's already
on her way.
What?
You're such a loser.
A brief little history
of my toys.
And this is the remote
for my first
remote-controlled car.
I remember I was
still in Minneapolis
at my parents'
apartment.
We built these little jumps,
like tiny jumps off the
curb, but it was just enough
that you could jump over
a recycling box,
or something
like that.
I wanted one of
these things so badly.
I remember this little punk
up the street,
Jordan Hamilton,
he had one
and he
never allowed me to...
bed for some reason,
maybe I was sick or something.
I woke up
and there were these packages.
But then
my first ever clear memory
of getting a toy...
Hey.
I'm your new neighbor.
Whatcha playing?
I don't know,
some monster game.
All right.

Everything, my action figures,
my notebooks, my RC car.

Minneapolis,

I think you should
start with clips of the toys
and then overlay your voice
on top of those clips,
it'll speed things up.
I mean, overall, do
you think I should pitch this
to Arnon in tomorrow's meeting?
Be harsh.
- Uh.
- What?
My uncle
came in, I think, no packages,
he just pulled it
out of his pocket.
I mean, it's not
like a fresh take
on a web series, you know?
It feels more like, uhm.
Like what?
I don't know, uh...
it feels like something that
we would've done in school.
Well then, why don't you
come over next week? Help me.
I'm sorry, sir,
but I'm really busy.
You fucking
liar, you're not busy.
You've never been busy!
Chris, just
stop walking like that
and tell me what's up.
Legally, I can't tell you yet,
but you know that iPhone sci-fi
series I've been working on?
Yeah, "Desert
Pals" or whatever.
"Desert
Friends" yes.
Dude, we got picked up!
We're doing eight episodes.
- What?
- Yeah, I know!
Arnon made the deal to
move the show to TV.
Well, streaming,
you know, but still.
- Holy shit!
- Yeah!
What's this?
I want you to
fix your truck.
Just get a new radiator
or whatever it needs.
It should be enough,
it's like 600 bucks.
I'm not taking this.
This is your money, this
is your new guitar money.
Or, this could cover
the wedding lanterns.
Okay, it isn't mine, babe.
I mean, there's no my money
or your money any more, right?
I guess.
It's kinda terrifying.
What, no.
You know the goal.
We need to start producing our
own steady stream of content.
Right away.
Let's steal something off
YouTube if you have to.
Conference room, let's go.
On it.
So it's obviously
not a secret any more.
We picked up our first in-house
project, "Desert Friends".
Yeah, Drew, you were right
about Chris, by the way.
He's such a weirdo,
but you know,
I think that's what
makes his show so unique.
Yeah, uh, thank you for
introducing us to him.
Of course.
So with that
in the works, we need our
next project ASAP. Nate?
All right, so I saw
this doc about a priest
who becomes part of this
underground kickboxing league.
No no no! It did
great in fests last year,
and me and the filmmaker,
we can make it into...
Next.
Um, okay, page three.
I actually know this director.
He documented the
sex trade in Uganda.
The project was
crowdfunded, so we have...
No.
Okay, so I
know sex trade in Uganda
sounds like, really
fun and all, but uhm...
We need something on
the verge of blowing up.
Steph, anything else?
Nope.
Nothing?
Uh, sir.
I have actually
been watching a lot of
documentaries recently,
so if you wanted,
I could brainstorm...
I'm sorry, could
you reschedule...
...schedule a meeting with
the creatives for Thursday.
All right, I'm on it.
I do have an idea,
though, if you have a sec.
Have you heard of
radio-controlled cars?
It would be like a
TV show where there's
a variety show, you
know, with jumping and...
No, no.
Sorry, sir.
Maybe, um, tell me
about your idea later.
I think
there's something
It keeps leaking, and
I put water in it,
and it's all messed up.
Okay, I'll
look at it. We'll get you
an estimate in about 45 minutes.
There's wifi in the lounge.
Thanks.
You can leave your keys in
the car, please, thank you.
I'm walking to find
a random hobby shop.
I'm hoping they've got
a battery for this baby.
I know it's weird, but
this guy gave me
some of the best years
of my life,
and, I kinda wanna get it
back up and running again.
So I'm gonna document
what it's like
to get back into RC cars.
Yeah hey, Steph?
Yeah, no, I know,
tell Arnon I'm, uh...
...there was a ton of
traffic and I'm just gonna
grab a sandwich.
I'll be back soon.
All right, bye.
I've only
been doing this 30 years,
but here's what I would suggest.
Now, you need to
take a look at this.
This truck's our
bestselling car.
It comes with
everything you need,
fully assembled, so you don't
have to screw around with it.
It's nice.
Is it good at jumping?
It's made for jumping.
Check out the gorilla-ball
suspension in this.
That thing's made for jumping.
That's massive.
You could drop it
off a building.
30 miles an hour.
30 miles an hour?
That's what I just
said, 30 miles an hour.
All right, you got me at a
particularly precarious time.
I need to move some
stuff. I like you.
I'll put you in this
for $295, out the door.
What about this one?
It's a racing buggy.
You don't want a racing buggy!
You don't want it,
it's a heartache.
Racing, like on a racetrack?
Yeah, they got tracks
all over the place,
but it sucks the fun out of it.
How fast does it go?
With the right
gearing, 60-70 mph.
With the charger, with
a controller, battery,
it's gonna be $600+.
Drew?
So I went ahead and
patched the crack for you,
but it's temporary.
Would you replace
the radiator?
Yeah, bro, I would.
I'd replace it for $600,
and I wouldn't charge
you for the patch.
What the hell, I'll take it!
- Here you go.
- No no no.
Not that one.
$550 cash, the rest on my card.
I'm getting the racing buggy.
Oh, did you
get my text earlier
about adding me
on your insurance?
Uh, yeah, yeah.
Why do we have to get
that maternity thing,
that seems like a waste of $300.
Well, people have been
known to get pregnant,
you know, when they get married.
Okay.
Sorry, anyway, you
were saying Arnon's
ready to hear a
pitch, or something?
Well, technically no,
but Steph and Nate were
just pitching such garbage,
and I thought about
what you said, you know,
not really, you know,
going with like
a fully-formed idea,
so I just blurted out
the thing about RC car racing.
Like from when you were 13?
I know, I know, it's...
He's trying to like,
get me legit shows
and tours and you're half-assing
some shit about RC cars.
I know, I know, it's stupid,
but Arnon actually kinda
wanted to hear about it,
so I started to research it,
and it turns out that
RC car racing
has this huge kind of
following.
Don't bring up toy cars.
Nobody is gonna take
you seriously.
Fine, okay.
Did you take your truck in?
Yeah.
Was I right, it
was like $600, yeah?
Almost exactly.
That's what I thought.
I'm gonna go, work on
the garage.
After you've
thoroughly washed the body,
you wanna make sure it's
completely dry,
and then your...
Are you coming to bed?
Just go to bed
without me for once.
What are you doing down there?
I'm just cleaning up.
Hey, Chris, what's up, man?
Nice.
Uh, I was calling to see if
you wanted to maybe join...
No way, pre-production.
Sweet.
Yeah, all right, bro.
All right, here we are.
My car's all decked out,
looking real badass.
And, I'm about to do my
first-ever RC car race.
Welcome
to round five
of the JBRL Racing League,
Southern California's
premiere radio-controlled
off-road series!
It's a perfect day out,
and we have top competitors
from every major team, some
coming in from across the globe.
After last week's
race in Coyote,
most of our classes are neck
and neck as we make our way
to the world championships
next month at Desert Thunder!
Hey, are you checking in?
Uh, yeah.
All right, what class?
Class?
Two-wheel drive, four-wheel
drive, short course?
Uh, it's, uh...
It's an RC8B3,
four-wheel drive.
You do know that
1/8-scale buggies
are like the most
competitive, right?
You're saying I'm screwed?
How should I know?
How's it going, man?
Hey man, can I film you
tinkering around with your car?
Got a lot of new trick parts
on them, it's less weight.
Works really good.
You think you've got
the fastest car out there?
Absolutely.
So what's the
deal with that one,
why is that battery bigger
than the other ones?
This is a 14.8 volt
and this is like 7.2.
What we do is we
put these in series
to make them the same voltage.
Our radios, they
have telemetry,
so we know what RPM
our batteries are at,
what our battery voltage is.
Are you guys better
than your parents?
No.
No, but you'd like to try?
Still working on it.
Who's the
best one of you guys?
- I am.
- I am.
Oh-ho-ho, that
sounds like fighting words.
Let's
get those drivers
back out to the track
to turn marshal.
Next up is our first 1/8-scale
buggy qualifying race.
This one is sure to be close,
with Carhart, Chris,
and Hanson all vying for
the top spots in
today's eight-man race
later this afternoon.
Here we go, here
we go, here we go!
Good luck,
drivers, we're racing
at the sound of the tone.
Austin, Briggs
right on the back of Carhart!
Oh! The newcomer shoots
right into the first turn!
Rachel Carhart maintains
the lead over the triple.
Hanson and Miller follow
close behind.
Once again having some
trouble, off the ground
and making his way around as
we approach the half-line.
Brighton ready to
follow through...
Oh! Brighton's car is
upside down again!
And the battle is between
Carhart and Forenza,
getting tighter as we come
back around the straightaway.
Keep it clean, you can't
win the race on the...
Well, that was a disaster.
Yeah, um, no,
we're good on the...
we're good on the 9x12,
but 500 of each of
the other ones.
Yeah, and if you have,
I don't actually know
what the sizes are for it,
um...
the square ones,
the 6x6?
Yeah, perfect.
Oh, hey, yeah,
I'll call you back, bye.
Hey, Arnon, I was just wondering
if I could get five minutes
of your time next week.
It's about the
RC car racing.
I've been doing some research
and it...
Nate and Steph
finally have some leads,
and with "Desert Friends"
in pre-pro,
I need you supporting
both of them, all week.
Cool.
I replaced the
servo gears, changed the wires.
I did a lot of work.
I need to return this,
it's broken.
You opened it, we don't
take returns on opened stuff.
I told you that.
You want a replacement part,
I'll sell you a
replacement part.
I'll pay a restocking
fee or something,
I just need to get
my money back.
No.
No no no, hell no.
Come on.
I'll give you $250
for everything,
including the charger.
You crazy?
I just paid $600 for this.
Well, it's what I can do.
How much for the
replacement part?
Sorry.
You suck.
Sorry about that.
No, I don't care if
you run me off the road,
I just mean you
suck at driving.
I know.
So you blow $600 on
the fastest buggy,
and realize it actually
takes talent? So now what,
like, sell it on
Craigslist or something?
Do you think I could
sell it on Craigslist?
Maybe with some practice
you'll be as good as me
in like six years.
But you're pretty good
at jumping.
No, I'm done.
I already spent wedding
lantern money on this,
so I need to get
rid of it and
get back as much money
as I can.
So I think you
should jump your buggy.
You mean like, keep it and
play with it at lunchtime?
No, I mean like
become the world's best
RC car jumper there
ever, ever was.
That's like an official
title or something?
No, not yet,
but it should be.
You see this?
"Send us your raddest
RC car jump footage.
"Video with the most
votes wins $200 cash."
That wouldn't even cover
my cell phone bill.
"Top three videos
get a chance to compete
"in the first annual
long-distance jump off
"Desert Thunder Championship
June 24th."
So?
So I get invited to
this race every year
'cause I'm the best
girl racer in the state,
but people like you that
don't really have any skill,
I don't know.
Just thought it was
crazy they're offering
Yeah, Desert Thunder,
that sounds just delightful.
Whatever, dude.
I have 20 minutes
left for lunch.
I'm so happy for you.
Teach me how to jump cars.
Like, now?
I wanna win that
video contest thing.
Uh...
Okay, yeah, you have
to learn some control.
Screw that,
I don't wanna race!
I just wanna
film the cars flying.
Right, but you have to go
in a straight line for that.
I know, I know,
you can teach me how.
Please?
Okay, but not here.
All
right, video log #184.
It's just a number, it
doesn't really actually
have any relevance to anything.
Um, I'm here...
I just, um...
I just met this girl
at the track, and um...
it's, um, she just,
she just, uh...
What's your name, anyway?
Rachel.
I'm Drew.
Watch out!
Hey, we should bail.
You wuss.
Nice!
- Dude!
- What!
What the hell was that?
That was amazing.
You should do the big one.
Bigger than this?
You wanna
do the big one!
You're crazy, dude.
Do it,
do it, do it!
This shot is
going to be amazing.
No, you have to learn how
to do the small jumps first.
No no no no! The small
ones were too small.
That was the problem.
No, listen.
Do you wanna be a big jumper?
Then you can't be a jackass.
People who jump RC cars
usually are jackasses.
Well, how so?
They launch their
dumb monster trucks
onto hard, flat ground,
and they think it's funny
to just destroy their
cars, and it's not funny.
It's sickening!
So you're saying I do
need a monster truck.
No, I'm saying that if
you do the jump right,
then a light,
fast buggy is the best.
If you were to take
your bike, do this ramp,
completely miss the
landing, and land, like,
way over there,
what would happen?
I'd probably blow out my rim.
Exactly! It's the same
thing with this buggy.
So you have to land it
down the landing.
Not on the hard ground,
nope.
You should want to jump
these over and over.
Like these dorks,
like BMX, like motocross!
You dress smart, be smart.
Jump smart!
Okay, got it.
Jump it, jump
it, jump it, jump it!
Okay, here we go!
- Hell yes!
- Yeah!!
We've got the natural
cement, the reclaimed wood.
You see the open pipes up there?
Now this, this is the
centerpiece of the whole piece.
This drum, I actually
got it in Africa.
Why don't you join me
in my office? Thank you.
[phones ringing and chattering
[RC car motor
whirring on computer}
Hell yeah!
Woo!
Uh, here's the promo footage.
Thanks.
Arnon said you could
cut something by tomorrow?
Sure.
Okay.
All
right, here I go!
Hell yeah!
Babe, you need to
try this cake
so we can put in
our order already.
I'm taking a crap,
get outta here!
Yeah, you're almost
my husband get over it.
I don't care.
Don't you have a sound
check to go to or something?
The baker said that our
guests are supposed to know
that the flavor we
chose subconsciously
best represents us
as a couple.
Oh my god, seriously?
I think the red velvet
is the winner.
Yeah, yeah, I know, because
the red matches your lips
and the velvet matches the...
I just don't care at all.
I can't even come up with
something, just please leave.
Forget it!
Close the door, please!

Campus seems pretty cool.

So I was thinking,
you really don't need
to waste your money
at a hardware store.
What do you mean?
Go, go!
Drive, drive, drive, drive!
Rachel! Go, go go go!
Drive, drive, drive!
Fuck.
All right, this is a
lot more work
than I thought it
was gonna be.
I got the wood...
building this jump
in this friggin'
parking lot.
I don't know where
Rachel is, she just left.
I need to get back to work,
it is not even noon yet
and I've been on lunch
for 90 minutes.
Uh, so that's my day
so far. Oh shit.
So I've determined
that I like you.
How did you determine that?
'Cause I've never known
someone to construct
their own RC car ramp before.
Really?
It's almost done.
I found the most perfect
landing ever over there.
Let's jump this shit.
All right, so it's gas
to lean back,
brake to go forward?
Uh, yeah, pretty much.
Here we go.
All right, go!
Brake!
All right, a little
less brake next time.
No no no! We gotta go,
we gotta go.
Why?
Hey, move it back
further, man!
Do it again!
That was awesome.
I gotta see it again.

All right, another fun
little lunch session.
I think you guys are gonna
really like this video.
I did break my a-arm,
though.
Luckily Rachel gave me
some spare parts.
It's gonna be great,
though.
Here we go.
Oh, nice.
Are we happy with how
these promos turned out?
Nate's lead just went away.
Shoot.
Um, all right, well, I
can make some phone calls.
Close the door for a sec.
Where have you been going?
Look.
I, uh... I wanted to get
together a nicer edit
before I showed you this, but
this is what I've been doing.
I've been researching
and filming the RC world.
I think it's gonna be huge.
I could put an edit
together nicer than this,
and if you wanted me
to, I could present it.
Drew.
Get the fuck back to work.
Still organizing?
Never-ending.
I'm way too tired
to cook anything.
The kids were on speed
today or something.
Um, we need to talk.
Yeah, I just, I need to
change out of these clothes.
Yeah, I know, it's
gonna take one second.
Arnon emailed me, if
that's what it's about.
I know he did.
Okay, well, where have you
been going at lunch, Drew?
That's so weird.
How is that weird?
I've been taking... God forbid
...an actual lunch break,
and then everybody
starts treating me like...
Okay, well, I just don't
get why you're lying about it.
Anyway, we can talk
about it later,
I just, I need food.
Um, I'm taking a
half-day tomorrow
to catch up on some
wedding stuff.
Drew.
Hm, sorry, what?
I said can you help
me tomorrow at lunch,
'cause we're gonna be
gone all weekend.
I can't take lunch breaks.
That's what I'm telling you,
this job is soul-sucking.
Seriously?
I find that really weird,
because I watch kids,
like, all day long.
It's not like I have all
this time to write music.
It's like you have
all these showcases,
and then that Arizona gig
right before the wedding,
and then the freakin'
East Coast Fall Tour.
It seems like you spend a lot
of time doing what you love.
The day you've all
been waiting for.
The day where Rachel
and I go big or go home.
Now, if you like this video,
or even love this video,
please, please, please
vote for it,
and vote for it as much
as you possibly can.
Hey, we're still in fourth?
Have you seen number one?
Go go go!
Yeah, I know, it's
painful to watch.
I mean, what the hell?
They're jumping a car
into a lake.
Maybe your jumps
just have to be bigger,
and your landings
have to be smoother?
No, no, no.
Look, I had an idea, okay?
We need more shock value.
Check this out.
Bam.
It's a house.
Yeah, we jump the car
over my house.
You're a dumbass.
What?
Also, why did you not tell me
that your dad owns this place?
Well, that's exactly why
I can't leave it unattended.
Oh, come on.
I'll bring you right back.
I mean, no offense, but
this place is pretty dead.
Yeah, because we're like
one sale away
from going out of business.
- I'm sorry, but look...
- I thought you didn't wanna
be like those idiots.
You're not getting it,
all right?
This is like... think
skateboarding tricks,
but with RC cars.
Nobody is doing this.
It'll be incredible.
Amazing.
Pretty please.
I'll buy you a Big Gulp.
Fine.
There we go, a
little bribery, bam!
So you really wouldn't
go to Desert Thunder,
even if you got invited
to do the record jump?
A week before my wedding?
Yeah, I keep forgetting
that you're getting married.
Is it a fun event?
Yeah, I hear it is.
I thought you got
invited every year?
I do, but I'd never be able to
drive up there on my own.
Maybe when I move out.
When are you gonna move out?
Never.
Why don't you just
ask your dad to take you
and get somebody to watch
the shop for the day?
I told you, my dad
hates me racing.
Screw that.
Just...
just ask him.
Maybe if he's in an
extra good mood today,
I will try asking him.
Hey, do two of you wanna
go film in the back?
Yeah!
Cool, they're rolling.
Let's do this.
- Fuck!
- Oh my god
Holy shit!
We got it!
We got it, it landed!
That was amazing! Wow!
Hey! Say something
to the camera!
This is the greatest day
of my life!
Be careful!
There's a car trying
to come through.
Drew!
There's a car!
Is that the fiancée?
Should I walk home?
Hey, I was kidding!
I'm already late, you have
to take me back to the shop!
Leave me alone.
Babe.
Open the door.
Don't babe me, please go away.
We need to talk.
I said leave me
the fuck alone!
I get it, you're upset.
I can just keep
picking the lock.
If you need any help with
the wedding stuff today,
I'm around.
Hey.
Holy shit.
You scared me.
I need that drive.
Uh, yeah...
Thank you.
I'm sorry, what am
I supposed to do now?
I don't know.
But did Arnon tell you
anything?
No, we're all
on set today.
Drew,
hey, this is Brian Lutes
from Team Associated.
Congratulations on winning
the video contest, dude.
Holy shit,
that house jump?
Ha! We're freaking out
over here!
Gimme a call back
and we can chat
about tomorrow's jump contest.
We're gonna take a break
from racing at noon
to have the jump contest.
Hey, Sadie.
Can you just turn on
the lights and come out?
♪ Ah ♪
You're like a dumb brick.
I'm not upset because I
didn't get wedding lanterns,
which these aren't
even wedding lanterns,
these are just shitty lights.
Okay, I'm pissed because I
don't know where you've been
or what the hell
you've been up to.
Look, I, look, I know, I know.
I've been wanting to show
you this for a while.
I've been, I've been filming
and editing RC car races.
I mean, it's like what you said,
it's the next step of my career.
You have no career, okay?
You are 26 and you literally
have nothing going for you.
I'm so sick of giving you
advice and finding jobs for you
and literally holding your
hand through everything.
I'm worried that you're never
gonna get your shit together,
which honestly makes me really
worried about our future.
What, so you don't want
me to come this weekend?
No.
And that toy car looked
really expensive.
How'd I miss that on our
bank statement?
I just, uh...
I patched the radiator.
What, speak up!
I bought it with the
repair money.
You spent my $600
on a toy.
I thought you said
it was our money!
I honestly need
this weekend to decide
if I ever wanna see you again.
Sadie.
Hey, Chris.
Oh my god, it's so big!
Dude!
Look at the girth
on this thing, man.
It's above average.
Dude, wait til you see
what's inside the studio.
Can we go in there?
Let's go.
Sir, sir! The
enemy is fast approaching!
I don't advise you
go into the asteroid field
until we get the proper
guidance systems.
It's too late,
we're going in hard!
Oh... so fun.
Do you think I
should tell Sadie
before or after the wedding?
I mean, I'm just
trying to figure out
the right thing to do,
man.
Being honest doesn't
mean, you know,
dumping all your
thoughts or bad feelings
on your girl. I mean,
no one can handle that.
So like, is it okay
to hide the truth,
if it wouldn't do
anything anyway?
Of course.
It's like, you wouldn't
want her to confess
every time she thought
another guy was hot, right?
Today's a big day.
I'm going to Desert Thunder.
I'm pretty excited.
Sorry about the shitty
quality of the video.
Some girl stole my GoPro.
There's the pinion gear
that I'm gonna be replacing.
Shell is ready.
We have this baby, still
gotta do some tweaks on that,
but we should be good.
Hello?
Hey, is Rachel there?
Hey, just wait outside,
I'm almost ready.
Actually, you can go
around back.
Hey!
I'm over here, loser.
Cool bike.
You good?
Okay, pack these.
Rachel Catherine Carhart.
I like that, it's elegant.
R.C.C.
Yeah.
Wait, RC Car... hart?
No comment.
RC Carhart!
How did I not know
that your name is RC...
It's my name, Drew.
Pack my shirt, leave me alone.
You were destined to do this.
- I was!
- Oh my God.
I can't believe it.
Chill out, it's just my name.
Can you believe that?
RC Carhart!
RC!
- No!
- RC Carhart!
You're not even packing right!
We're never gonna leave.
You have my shark.
- It's my good luck shark!
- I'm in shock, I just.
He's mine, and so's my
shirt, and so's my name.
Leave me alone, Drew.
You're making me
very self-conscious.
Black or white?
Uh.
Just kidding, duh, black.
Whoa, hey, whoa,
what are you doing?
What?
Nothing.
Fine, turn around.

So this is like,
my first ever road trip.
This is a
road trip now?
Or, it's not a road trip.
Sorry,
it's a road trip.
So I know this is none
of my business, but like,
it's super weird that you're
getting married in a week.
How so?
I don't know, like, is
your fiancée cool with you
hanging out with another
girl and going on, like, a...
- Road trip?
- Yeah, exactly.
Just another girl, road
trip, alone, without her.
It's just like... I know
I'm not like cute
or desirable or anything, but...
Hold on one second.
We got into a huge
fight last night.
What, we're not talking now?
I don't know, dude.
You're just, like, totally
lying to her like it's nothing.
How am I lying to her?
I dunno, I don't know much,
but that's just
like, shady shit.
But forget I brought it up,
I'm sorry.
We'll just talk about
something else.
Fine, look, I feel bad.
I just...
I feel like there's
some things that we...
That I don't need to
tell my girlfriend.
Oh my god, all right,
we're definitely
changing the subject and
from now on,
we just talk about RC cars.
I actually have an idea.
What?
What are we doing, drive.
I don't get it.
Can this piece of shit
truck go faster than 50?
This is a terrible idea!
No, it's gonna be awesome!
Go faster!
I'm trying, my car can't.
Holy shit.
I'm doing it!
Watch out,
don't lean out so far.
We're gonna have
so many views!
Hey, someone's coming!
They think we're crazy!
Drew,
you're last up,
and you have two attempts
to clear Matt's record
of 95 feet.
Do we leave the ramp where it
is, or start a little smaller?
I'm gonna go for the
win on the first attempt.
Nice confidence, man,
I love it, woo!
We'll give him some space,
give him some space.
Whenever
you're ready, Drew.
All right,
that is tragic.
Hey, can we get some
people to help him
get his car back together?
Oh my gosh.
Tragic, tragic.
I'm done! I'm done.
Does anyone have a spare car?
Uh, does
anybody have a spare car
just lying around for him?
This is really, um...
No, no! No way!
What the hell are you doing?
You race in 30 minutes.
No, it's not up to you.
My car was always faster
than yours anyway.
I can't handle the pressure.
What is up with all
these cameramen?
Stop it, all right, I lost.
No! You have another shot.
Get outta my way!
This will
be his final attempt,
using a replacement car
...his girlfriend's RC8B3.
She's not my girlfriend!
Correction, Rachel Carhart
is not his girlfriend.
I'm getting married next week.
Oh,
sorry, ladies,
Drew's getting
married next week!
Whenever
you're ready, Drew.
Ah, well,
I guess that's the
end of the jump contest
and we'll get back to racing.
Just remember that
we have 2 hot dogs
for only $2, benefiting the...
Hey, wait,
where are you going?
My race is about to start!
Yeah, what car
are you gonna use?
Some guy said I could
use his old one
if I use my motor.
Yeah, cool, well,
do that,
and then get a ride
home with the cameraman.
Are you just
gonna leave me here?
I'm just done with it,
all right?
I'm done with all of it.
Are you gonna come or not?
Fine.
No, wait wait wait!
Okay! fine!
Dude, is there something
wrong with your car?
Is there a word worse
than fuck?
Oh, god.
Hey, what the hell?
Drew, what are you doing?
Hey, can you just
stop and talk to me?
Drew, what are you doing?
Stop!
It's the videos. I
gotta delete the videos.
No, Drew, leave
the videos alone.
- Delete.
- Don't.
- Delete.
- Don't do it.
Don't touch the videos!
Get away from me, all right?
They're my videos!
People love the videos,
what are you talking about?
Oh yeah, thanks, thanks
a lot, hobby shop girl.
Right, your fiancée
probably doesn't even
know you're here, does she?
Clearly you don't
wanna get married.
Of course I do.
I love Sadie.
I hate that name.
Sadie, Sadie,
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
Sadie, Sadie!
What, did it crack?
Oh, it's wonderful,
it won't even turn on.
Thanks.
I'm sorry.
Can you please just admit
that this was
always something
more than RC cars?
Are you kidding me?
- Just admit it.
- No.
Say that you like me, Drew!
What, are we 12 now?
Well, you're sure
acting like it, yeah!
Yeah, fine, okay,
obviously, I love you!
I mean, no guy spends this
- amount of time with a girl...
- You love me?
Yeah, what?
Dude, I...
I know.
Just skipped right on
past like, then?
This is obviously just
some sort of fantasy.
I'm on this path with
Sadie, you know,
this specific route, and...
I gotta be a man and I
have to stick it out!
This is so messed up.
None of this is
funny at all!
You're such a loser, Drew.
I know.
So, the mechanic says the
car's not gonna make it home.
Offered me $300 for parts...
...so, I'll sleep on it.
Sleep on it where?
I don't know, a motel.
That's so true, and like,
his suit was kind of
like that same vibe, too.
Like it was just too much.
Where do you
buy that suit?
Where do you get...
like, I've never seen
a store that's like.
I don't know, but
you should get one.
- Yeah, you like that?
- Uh-huh.
The motor and the
speed control are fine,
it's the fucking front end.
Yeah, my shocks and my
linkage are just done.
Hey, can I see the purple
one that's in your hand?
- Sorry about that.
- Thanks.
Stealing all my tools
over there.
Your dad's calling.
You're not gonna get it?
It's not gonna get
better until I move out.
Does he know that
you came along with me?
I'm sure he does.
Will he be pissed?
Uh, honestly?
He will most likely
call the cops.
Wait, really?
I mean, what's the deal?
My mom wrecked him.
But screw it, I'm gonna
move out and get a real job,
and get my own place, and just
put everything into racing.
And, it will be great.
Hey, what the hell?
Did you sleep?
Not very well.
Getting close.
God.
It's a left up here, man.
What?
It's a left up here.
No, Mom, that feature
doesn't even exist.
You can't find people
on their phones,
like, you can't
find where they are.
He's here.
Oh my god, where were you?
I was at a RC car
race a couple hours away,
and my RC car broke, and
then my phone shattered,
and then the engine
in my truck exploded.
Jesus.
How did you get home?
Bus.
It was the worst
weekend of my life.
Um, Mom, yeah, he's here.
No, he's fine.
No, he didn't stay out at
a strip club all night.
Mom, I'm gonna
call you back later.
Okay, bye.
Jesus.
God... when you... when you
didn't text me back, I just,
like, I panicked,
and I thought maybe
you were bailing
on me or something.
No.
I'm sorry I've been
suffocating you,
and I feel like we
always just talk about me
and my career, and I just want
you to know that I'm really...
Babe, can we talk
about this later, please?
Yeah.
Okay, but I just
wanna say that
I want you to have
hobbies and I'm sorry
if I wasn't interested
in RC cars.
You know, they still sound
really lame to me.
But, I shouldn't judge you,
and you shouldn't have to
make up some bullshit story
about how it's for work.
Mm, work, yeah, it's a
whole different story.
Why, what happened at work?
No, nothing, nothing, nothing.
Really?
Keep on going.
That's it, really.
I just... sorry I was a
bitch on Friday, and...
...I just want you to know
that I'm all in.
Okay.
I gotta close my eyes
because they literally
feel like they're gonna explode.
You wanna go and
get some food or something?
I'm starving.
Who's Rachel Carhart?
Who?
Oh, let me see.
Oh, babe, she... I went
to the RC track yesterday
and she tagged me in some
photos, it's nothing.
But who is she?
It's some chick who
works at the RC car track.
It's... I don't even know her.
So why is she posting
photos like this
right before our wedding?
I don't know why.
Seriously, I don't know.
She's your friend on here!
Yeah, everybody's
friends on here!
It's nothing. I've talked
to her like once or twice.
Okay, but let's keep looking.
And, there's like a whole casual
fucking road trip in here!
No, look, the thing is... okay.
She's an RC car racer and she
needed a ride to this contest.
Seriously, it was nothing,
it was not a road trip.
No, no. Oh my god!
That was her! At
our fucking house.
Last week when I caught
you trying to jump the car
and you were supposed to be
at work and that... it was her!
I don't...
Like I wouldn't notice some
cute girl in our driveway.
- Okay, look, babe.
- No!
No, seriously, it's not...
It's nothing, all right?
We're friends, yes! Okay, we're
friends, I admit it, but...
Oh my god, stop lying to me!
I'm not lying. I'm
seriously not lying, okay?
But you just, you have
to understand, all right,
that everything is
really heavy right now,
with the wedding and
with work and stuff,
so I wanted to have some fun.
I mean, okay, wait,
no, not fun, but like,
I wanted to let loose, okay?
So I went to this contest,
and I don't know
how to tell you this,
but Arnon fired me, all right?
So, when I went to the contest...
Do you know that last
week I came to your work
to try to surprise you at
lunch, and your car was gone.
You were with her,
weren't you?
With Rachel.
Maybe, I don't know.
God, Rachel, I hate
that name! It's such...
Sadie, I know, hey.
Hey, listen, listen, listen.
Look, you have to
trust me, okay?
It's over. It's done.
I'm yours, all right?
I'm gonna be the man
that you want, I swear.
So nothing happened with her?
Oh my god!
Sadie, no, it... Look, okay,
Sadie, Sadie, can you just,
please...
just listen to me, okay?
Where are you going?
You love this car so much,
huh?
Sadie, please.
Just take it easy, ma'am.
I'm looking for Drew
Brighton, does he live here?
Yeah, what's going on?
Rachel Carhart has been
reported missing by her father.
She's just my friend.
Sadie, what's going on?
Her father
said she ran away with you.
- No.
- Is she here?
- No, she's...
- No, just me, his fiancée.
What'd you do, you probably
raped her, didn't you, Drew?
Listen, maybe you
should come downtown
and answer a few
questions for us.
Yeah, sure, fine.
Can I get a ride?
Sure.
Hey, man,
her dad finally called.
I guess she wandered
home, but she's safe,
so you're free to go.
Yeah, yeah, no,
Mom, I got it, thank you.
Yeah, I don't know,
it's a nice,
standard rental car,
you know?
No, Mom, look,
it's not her fault, okay?
Yeah, she just left,
look...
I fucked it... sorry,
I screwed up, okay?
I know, Mom,
look, don't cancel the
flights yet, all right?
I'm gonna try to talk
to her tonight.
Alison, please.
I know Sadie's there, I just
need to talk to her a second.
Hey, asshole!
Catch.
Yeah, thanks, Sadie.
You never even
wore this thing!
Yeah, five years of editing
and shooting experience.
Bar mitzvahs and weddings?
Uh, I'm not sure I'm the
guy who should be
editing wedding videos.
Yeah, today.
Yeah, oh, I'm gonna have
to think about that.
Can I call you back?
Thanks.
Chris, what's up, man?
Yeah, I wanted to come
by and see you film.
You're sleeping?
I thought
you'd be... wait, what?
Wakey wakey,
hands off snakey.
Dude, the place is trashed.
Hey, man.
Hey, dude.
Saw you, uh, rented out my
room to some real winners.
They, uh... pulled
the plug on my show.
Just like that.
Just... it turns out
another network
already had a
sci-fi comedy lined up.
It was pretty much
the same concept.
- Bastards.
- Oh, dude.
Shit.
Hey, what'd you
do this weekend?
Dude, this is insane.
I know.
- 80 feet into cement.
- Right?
And, if I would've landed it,
it probably would've been a
world record or something.
Do you wanna move back in,
though?
I could totally kick
these guys out.
No, no, no. I'm good, man.
I'll probably end up
moving back to Minnesota.
Ew, no!
No no no no, like,
with your parents?
A guy offered me this today.
I could be a wedding
video editor.
Minnesota sounds better.
I know, right?
- It's depressing.
- It is.
Talking to him on
the phone, too,
just.
What, so you're
not gonna take it?
I dunno.
Should I?
Well, dude, give me their
number if you don't want it.
Just relax,
let me think about it.
Pull out your phone.
You got the number right now?
You're such a little
scavenger, man, god!
Give me the number, man.
Hey, Dad.
Yeah, sorry I haven't
called in a while.
Sadie!
I can't hear you, stop yelling.
I... what are you, drunk?
So where am
I taking you?
Alison's?
No.
So then where am I going?
Sadie.
Stay with me.
I just wanna go home.
Hey.
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie.
What?
You were right.
Okay? You were right
about our dumb house.
Our terrible jobs.
And, uh...
I can't imagine
my life without you.
Uhm...
I want you to come
on tour with me.
You know, we still have time
to be young and be stupid
and poor and have fun and...
I don't wanna do it alone.
I think you should go.
Babe.
You gotta go on tour. You
gotta do what you love.
And, I...
...I need to figure out my life.
I love you, babe.
Take me back to the party.
Alison's already
on her way.
What?
You're such a loser.
