[Guns firing]
(Soldier #1)
hit the dirt!
Go!
(Soldier #2)
move out! move out!
[Grunts]
(Mitch)
get up!
Nice going.
I lose a lot of men
that way, soldier.
Yes, sergeant.
um, i didn't think, sir.
You're not paid to think.
you're paid to follow orders.
I'm paid to teach you
how to stay alive.
is that clear?
Yes, sergeant.
Next time you see charlie
without a bullet in him,
you put one there.
The army can afford
to lose ammo, but we can't
afford to waste you.
Do you read me?
Yes, sergeant.
Now get back
to the marshalling point,
on the double!
Hey, mitch.
how's it going?
Oh, pretty good.
A couple of goofs.
not too many.
How about yourself?
Well, i know
it's the same old story
after each training cycle,
But i sure wish
we could keep 'em
a little longer.
Yeah, i know
what you mean.
(Soldier #1)
all right. let's go.
move it up. let's go.
(Jim)
hey, what's
happenin', man?
Al, hank.
how'd it go?
Oh, fine.
just fine.
Of course one of my boys
with a machine gun tripped
And practically wiped
out his whole squad.
Other than that,
it was fine. just fine.
That's about par
for the course.
How about you, al?
Well, i hate
to tell you this, guys,
But, uh, my squad was just
a-number-one perfect.
That's because
you're super sergeant.
Well, thank you,
brother.
Well, let's get the
paperwork done.
The beers are on me.
All righty.
All right.
move 'em out!

Oh, they're harmless.

Hey!
Pull over now, damn it!
[Banging car]
I think
we'd better get out of here.
I think you're right.
(Helen)

up ahead.
I'll turn off

[Kathy screaming]
(Biker)

through that. yeah.
Hey, what the hell
is the matter with you?
What the hell do you
expect me to do, man?
The 2 chicks ran me over
and then split.
that's hit and run.
So what are you, man,
some kind of an attorney?
What are you?
I'm the guy
that keeps this gang together.
Now you get down there
and see if you can
help those people.
I'll go down
and get my chain.
Listen.
If those people are alive,
we're goin' to help 'em.
And if they're not?
You got yourself
a problem, boy. now, git!
Casey! come on back up here.
Somebody's comin'.
I gotta get my chain.
Suit yourself.

[Motorcycles revving]
Well, that's just great.

Don't worry
about a thing, boys.
It's all part
of my system.
What is? losin'?
When are you
guys leaving?
In the morning.
Holy mackerel, boy,
you done lost again.
Only way
we're gonna get rich is
we own the casino.
[All laughing]
(Hank)
don't worry
about a thing, boys.
It's like plucking feathers
off a hot hen.
Hey, where you headed, mitch?
I'm goin' home,
back to leesville.
Why, that little town
up north?
I didn't know
you were from around here.
Sure.
Matter of fact, this summer,
I'm goin' to go home and marry
my hometown sweetheart.
(Cal)
hey, she's a very pretty girl,
mitch.
There you are!
now i'm $10 ahead.
I tell you i can't lose.
(Jim)
i'll be darned.
All right, nick the greek,
let's go tuck in
our graduating class.
Oh, come on, mitch.
i'm really hot.
now one more time, ok?
I--i can get it this time.
He's got the fever.
[Groaning]
[People chattering]
See you in a minute.
♪ All i am is

Mitch.
♪ Be with you ♪
Mitch, i just received
a long-distance
telephone call.
♪ To believe you ♪
It was from lt. reardon
of the leesville
sheriff's office.
Tom reardon?
What'd he have to
say for himself?
Mitch, i don't know
how to say this.
It concerns kathy,
your fiancee.
There was
an automobile accident
this afternoon.
Kathy and another girl
with her,

They were both killed, mitch.
♪ It's just a face ♪
Kathy?

(Hank)

i did it again.
I told you, i win every time.
one more. one more time.
(Al)
what do i know.
Ok, here we go.
(Hank)
all right, line and red, huh?
[Hank laughing]
Ah, i did it, again.
(Priest)
into your hands
I commit my soul.
You have redeemed me,
O lord, god of truth.
Have mercy on me, o lord,
for i am in trouble.
My eyes consumed with grief,
For my life
is spent with sorrow
And my years with sighing.
Be of good courage
And he shall
strengthen your heart.
All you that hope
in the lord. amen.
(Barnes)
mitch, i've got to
get back to the post.
Are you all right?
(Mitch)
yes, sir.
thank you, sir.
Take it easy, mitch.
(Mitch)
have you, uh,
Heard anything
about that bike gang?
The devils?
nothing yet.
We've combed the entire state
and nobody's ever
heard of 'em.
What about the, uh,
chain you found
on the windshield?
Nothing.
We've been matching
fingerprints in washington
and sacramento.
Nothing.
In other words,
since the accident,
nobody's found out anything.
Take it easy, mitch.
We're doing
everything we can.
This witness, uh,
the salesman.
What about him?
Well, i'd like
to talk to him.
Well, he was just
passing through.
We took his testimony
and let him go home.
You let the only witness
leave town?
What the hell did you
expect me to do,
throw him in jail?
The man saw some bikers
leaving an accident.
That's all.
Mitch, i've only got
5 men,
And they've already got
more work
than they can handle.
Look here, tom.
i'm sorry.
So am i.
I'm doing everything i can.
really i am.
Level with me,
tom.
Do you really think
you can find these devils?
I really don't know.
We've got to come up
with some evidence,
or probably not.
There's no way
to prove anything.
Well, if the police
can't come up
with something,
I'm goin' to do
some poking around
on my own.
Easy, mitch.
Don't take the law
into your own hands.
I don't intend to.
You know me better
than that, tom.
But i've got to try
to get some kind
of lead for you.
You said
you're short of men.
That's right.
Well?
All right.
You report to me
if you find out anything.
And, mitch.
Yeah?
Remember something.
these bikers
don't like policemen,
Or any kind of authority.
They're rough
and uncooperative,
Even when they haven't got
anything to hide.
So play it cool.
And take care
of yourself.
Ok.
I'll be in touch,
tom. thanks.
[Sighs]
[Tires screeching]
[Bikers whooping]
I'd hoped that
we'd finally got rid
of those guys.
I know, i know.
I wonder where
the rest of 'em are.
Why don't you tell them
to get out of town and
stay out, once and for all.
We'll back you up.
How far?
[Bikers whooping]
You bastard!
[People chattering]
(Woman)
what you doing?
All right, t.j.
cut it out.
Damn it, it wasn't
my fault they crashed.
All i was trying
to do is stop 'em.
You stopped 'em.
Man, you really
stopped 'em.
And now every pig in the state
is out lookin' for us.
I'll tell you
somethin', boy.
You give me
any more problems,
I don't care what or why,
You're gonna pack it up
and leave.
The hell i am, t.j.
I've been with this gang
since the beginning.
A hell of a lot longer
than you have, pal.
And nobody's gonna
throw me out.
Well, now, there's just
one leader of this group
And that's me.
Now, you wanna
be the man,
You just take
your best shot.
[Grunts]
(Biker)
fight!
[All clamoring]
[Grunting]
(Susan)
stop it!
Leave him alone, t.j.
leave him alone.
(Lewis)
i thought you said
you weren't coming back.
Hey, sheriff,
we're not back.
Why don't you
take a look around?
We just left
all the rest of 'em
up in the mountains.
(Lewis)
so?
So?
So we gotta take supplies
up to those boys.
We're not going to
let 'em starve, are we?
Your bikers
out in the street,
They're getting
a little out of hand.
How about talking to 'em?
Well, has there
been anyone hurt?
Has there been
any property damage?
No, not so far.
But i've had
some complaints.
Well, i'll tell you
what you do.
You let me know
who's complainin'
and i'll go talk to 'em.
You talk to your people.
i'll take care of the town.
If this keeps up,
somebody's bound to be hurt.
Well, i got a solution,
sheriff.
Why don't you just
get everybody else
off the street?
'Cause my boys,
they're gonna get tired
sooner or later.
T.j., we had
an understanding.
Now, it's very simple.
Are you going to
keep your word or not?
Hear me out, man.
Hey, sheriff.
Look, everybody ought to be
in here drinkin' beer anyway.
We don't want
no hassles, man.
Ok, man.
let's not have any hassles.
Let's go outside.
Get them, tiger.
[All laughing]
♪[Music playing on stereo]
Let's go up
to the house.
You know,
i'll get him some day.
I mean, he'll push too far
and i'll get him.
I know.
You ok?
What?
I mean,
when they knocked us over,
Did you hurt yourself?
Fine. just a bump.
Case, you really didn't
mean to do it, did you?
What do you mean?
They knocked us down
on purpose.
But you didn't mean
to kill them.
[Pool balls clacking]
[People chattering]
Come on.
Let's go up
to the house.
(Man)
hey, man, i hear you guys have
been tearin' up the street.
[Door closes]
Before kathy died,
She kept saying
the word "devils"
over and over again.
Lt. reardon thinks
that's the name
of the bike gang.
But he's not sure.
No, he's not sure,
but it's all we have
to go on.
[Motorcycle engines rumbling]
What do you feel like
doing next, mitch?
[Door opens]
Try to find the devils.
Where do you want to start?
7 burgers, 7 beers.
(Hank)
why not with them?
watch my hot dog.
(Hank)
hi, there.
I need a little information.
I'm looking for
an old buddy of mine.
Last i heard of him
he was riding
With a bike club
called the devils.
Anybody here know of a group
called the devils?
The red devils?
Yeah, that's it.
About 26 guys
on big choppers.
Mmm-hmm.
The leader's name was,
uh, bert something.
Right, right.
Used to hang out
in san berdoo.
Came here about 5 years ago
packin' 7 or 8 mamas?
That's it.
Never heard of him.
[All laughing]
That's a bad joke,
long john.
The soldier boy comes in
looking for his buddy
And you sit there laughin'.
Where are you from, general?
Fort henderson,
and i'm a sergeant.
Oh.
Well, i thought you were
at least a general
With all those ribbons
and medals.
Fort henderson, huh?
Why, honey,
the way you'll talk,
I thought you were
from fort mason-dixon.
[All laugh]
Hey, where are you goin'?
I was just teasin'.
You know,
havin' a little fun.
Now, let's see now.
There was this gang
out of nevada
called the blue devils.
No. it was the yellow devils
out of wyoming.
No. it was the yellow jackets
out of wyoming
And the green devils
out of new mexico.
No, no,
that's not right at all.
it was-- it was old mexico.
That's it.
it's the mexican devils
out of old mexico!
How about that, general.
Your friend was a mexican
with the mexican devils,
right.
Hank, freeze!
Let's go.
Come on, man.
aren't you gonna hit me?
(Bikers)
yeah, come on, hit him!
[Bikers shouting]
You should've let me
knock a couple
of their heads together.
We don't need a beef
at this point.
It sure would have
made me feel better.
Yeah, i know.
Well, lt. reardon
sure called it.
Those guys don't talk
to nobody.
Well, what are we gonna
do now, besides get rid
of these uniforms?
I don't know,
but that's a good start.
Hold it.
What is it?
I got an idea.
I used to be
a pretty good rider
when i was a kid.
What about you guys?
Hell, i was lucky
to have a bicycle.
The closest i ever came
was a pair of roller skates.
You'll learn.
I guess we'll learn.
Hi, fellas.
what can i do for you?
Thought we'd buy
some motorcycles.
If the price
is right.
I wonder, uh, can we
get a special rate
If we, uh, say, buy 4
of these things?
Red ones.
Well, yeah, sure.
Uh, we can probably do
something for you.
Now, what do you plan
to use them for,
street or dirt?
Hunting.
[Engine revving]
Ok, hank.
It's in neutral.
why don't you try it?
[Laughing]
Now drop it all the way
down to the bottom.
First clutch.
Now let the clutch out,
real easy.
[Revving powerfully]
[Grunting]
I reckon you meant
real slow on the clutch.
That's what i meant.

Uh, jim, why don't you
take a crack at it?

a couple of beers.
So what?
Well,

Before kathy died,
She kept saying
the word "devils"
over and over again.
Lt. reardon thinks
that's the name
of the bike gang.
But he's not sure.
No, he's not sure,
but it's all we have
to go on.
[Motorcycle engines rumbling]
What do you feel like
doing next, mitch?
[Door opens]
Try to find the devils.
Where do you want to start?
7 burgers, 7 beers.
(Hank)
why not with them?
watch my hot dog.
(Hank)
hi, there.
I need a little information.
I'm looking for
an old buddy of mine.
Last i heard of him
he was riding
With a bike club
called the devils.
Anybody here know of a group
called the devils?
The red devils?
Yeah, that's it.
About 26 guys
on big choppers.
Mmm-hmm.
The leader's name was,
uh, bert something.
Right, right.
Used to hang out
in san berdoo.
Came here about 5 years ago
packin' 7 or 8 mamas?
That's it.
Never heard of him.
[All laughing]
That's a bad joke,
long john.
The soldier boy comes in
looking for his buddy
And you sit there laughin'.
Where are you from, general?
Fort henderson,
and i'm a sergeant.
Oh.
Well, i thought you were
at least a general
With all those ribbons
and medals.
Fort henderson, huh?
Why, honey,
the way you'll talk,
I thought you were
from fort mason-dixon.
[All laugh]
Hey, where are you goin'?
I was just teasin'.
You know,
havin' a little fun.
Now, let's see now.
There was this gang
out of nevada
called the blue devils.
No. it was the yellow devils
out of wyoming.
No. it was the yellow jackets
out of wyoming
And the green devils
out of new mexico.
No, no,
that's not right at all.
it was-- it was old mexico.
That's it.
it's the mexican devils
out of old mexico!
How about that, general.
Your friend was a mexican
with the mexican devils,
right.
Hank, freeze!
Let's go.
Come on, man.
aren't you gonna hit me?
(Bikers)
yeah, come on, hit him!
[Bikers shouting]
You should've let me
knock a couple
of their heads together.
We don't need a beef
at this point.
It sure would have
made me feel better.
Yeah, i know.
Well, lt. reardon
sure called it.
Those guys don't talk
to nobody.
Well, what are we gonna
do now, besides get rid
of these uniforms?
I don't know,
but that's a good start.
Hold it.
What is it?
I got an idea.
I used to be
a pretty good rider
when i was a kid.
What about you guys?
Hell, i was lucky
to have a bicycle.
The closest i ever came
was a pair of roller skates.
You'll learn.
I guess we'll learn.
Hi, fellas.
what can i do for you?
Thought we'd buy
some motorcycles.
If the price
is right.
I wonder, uh, can we
get a special rate
If we, uh, say, buy 4
of these things?
Red ones.
Well, yeah, sure.
Uh, we can probably do
something for you.
Now, what do you plan
to use them for,
street or dirt?
Hunting.
