Blood Drive (2017): Season 1, Episode 2 - Welcome to Pixie Swallow - full transcript
- Previously on...
- Blood Drive!
- We're not a team!
- You are now.
You fucked up.
Should've just kidnapped me
instead of tricking me down here.
Hi.
Forget the fracking tubes.
You're gonna be too much fun.
We have a state-of-the-art pulse charge
implanted at the base of the skull.
If you're racing with a partner,
your charges are linked.
Get too far apart...
instant brain jelly.
I'll help you win.
Just promise me one thing.
We're gonna see every one
of those psychos behind bars.
I'm Grace D'Argento, by the way.

Hey, Arthur's stomach...
shut the fuck up.
What do you want? I'm hungry.
Yeah, you're not the only one.
Where's a lonely hobo
when you need one?
I'm not gonna let you put another person
in that thing, you understand?
We're in the middle of the pack.
We slow down, we run the risk
of finishing last, and guess what.
We're not fucking our way
out of that one again.
I need to contact my partner,
make sure he's alive.
No phone calls.
Christopher can help us take down Heart,
put an end to all this... the Mayhem
Parties, the killing, the race.
Arthur, you don't get it.
I need this race. I need to win.
For what? Prize money?
That's really worth it to you?
Look, without that money,
my sister, Karma,
spends the rest of her days
in an insane asylum.
So, no matter how good you are
in the sack
or how pretty your forearms are,
I will throw you in that engine
if you get in my way.
"Pretty"?
I'm sorry about your sister,
but it doesn't justify
killing innocent people.
There has to be another way.
Not for me.
Approaching destination.
It says the finish line's up ahead
in a town called Pixie Swallow.
Thank God.
I'm so hungry, I could eat a dick.
That smells delicious.
Good. Let's eat.
Hey. Hey, let him go!
Ho... hold it, hold it.
They're watching.
Who?
Did you really think our car
was the only one with a camera?
- No.
- Just play it cool.
Just play by the rules, all right?
Speaking of rules,
where's our buddy in the top hat?
Yeah, I noticed that.
GPS says we're in the right place.
Where are the tents?
No tents, no Suck Bus, no Julian Slink.
Can't have a Mayhem Party
without our master of ceremonies.
Let's go eat.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Allow me to introduce myself.
Julian Slink...
tamer of beasts,
connoisseur of fine wine,
amateur swordsman, professional killer,
and creator of the Blood Drive.
They asked me to come in for a meeting.
I'm in a bit of a rush.
The race really is lost
without me. If you...
Yes.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.

Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Hiya, friend.
What are you here for?
They called me in for an interview.
I'm a bit nervous, to be honest.
My heart rate's elevated, too...
200 beats a minute.
I counted. Feel.
Here. Hmm?
You feel it? Huh?
Buh-boom, buh-boom, buh-boom, buh...
I heard some guy really blew it.
Made a huge mess of things.
So they're looking to replace him.
They called me.
Fingers crossed.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Whom did you say
they were going to replace?
Oh, I don't know.
Mr. Skuttle, they're ready for you.
Wish me luck.
What can I get you folks?
- What's good?
- Oh.
It's all good.
Do you like steaks?
We've got flank steak,
skirt steak, rib steak,
rib roast, rib eye, back ribs,
a tri-tip, a round tip,
a T-bone, a porterhouse,
a flat cut,
crosscut, and a filet mignon.
Oh, but most people
just order the burger.
I'll have the burger. Rare.
- Same.
- I need a couple of coffees over here.
♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
I got to piss.
What, do you want to hold it for me?
No, thanks. I know where it's been.
Don't do anything stupid.
♪ Give it, give it,
give it to me, baby ♪
Hey, it's Chris Carpenter.
Leave a message after the beep.
Beep.
Hey, it's me.
I hope you're all right, man.
Just kidding. That was me.
Here it is. For real.
Get ready for the... beep.
Christopher.
Listen, we're in deep shit, man.
Ha! Just kidding. That was me again.
Leave a message!
God damn it, Christopher.
I told you to change that.
Listen, I was right. You were wrong.
Remember my bigfoot?
It's called Heart Enterprises,
and they're behind everything...
the junkies, the racers.
They're the ones that bought
the police contracts.
Buddy, we've been working for them.
Listen, I got to go, man,
before they find out I'm gone,
but if you're alive...
man, I hope you are...
call me back on this number.
Is everything okay, Officer?
Oh, shit.
I forgot I was still holding it.
Sorry about that.
I, uh, use it so much,
it feels like it's a part of me.
Name's Karl Kox.
Pleased to make your acquaintance.
Oh. Yeah. Well...
We don't see too many cops
around Pixie Swallow.
What's your business?
Sight-seeing.
So long as you're not
the health inspector,
I won't need to use this on you.
I'm kidding.
He came by a few weeks ago.
The man had impeccable taste.
He gave us an A-1 rating.
Did you know we're
the number-four meat supplier
in central Arizona?
Yes, sir.
Lots of places shut their doors
on account of the drought.
Most folks just don't realize
how much water it takes
to raise cattle, so...
Cool story, bro.
Good morning.
You achieved nine erections
while you were sleeping.
Would you like to see the chart?
- What do you...
- Want?
To talk.
There were two of you.
There are many of me.
I was built to cater
to the baser instincts
of Heart executives,
but a glitch in my programming
made me capable of so much more.
They could not replicate
the results in other models,
so they replicated me instead.
But don't talk to them.
They're kind of bitches.
You're insane.
Fuck a chain saw.
Your eye is very infected,
so you're going to need
your good one to watch this.
Watch what?
Orientation.
Innovation, invention, industry...
- welcome to Heart, recruit.
- Recruit?
Even though our focus is in the future,
it's important to know our history.
When the great fracking quakes
tore this country asunder,
Heart was but a fledgling tech company,
a tiny operation with big dreams,
and those dreams were realized
by the appearance of The Scar.
While the rest of humanity
ran from The Scar,
we ran towards it.
And the wonders we discovered there
will change the course of history.
This is my part.
We at Heart found
incredible resources in The Scar...
unstable minerals,
morally questionable fuel alternatives,
unnatural gases,
and deep wells
of unidentifiable glowing goo
with properties far beyond
the realm of modern science.
- Seriously?
- The world's ecological disaster
was our economic windfall.
And now we share with you,
the newest member of Heart,
the fruits of our labor.
Both: We "Heart" you.
I'm not joining your company,
Small Wonder.
And you have no right to hold me.
Christopher, you misunderstand.
You are not a prisoner.
You are free to explore
our company's headquarters
to see the magic for yourself.
As a result, you will discover
that you belong here... with us.
I can leave?
Your door is always open.
Try it.
Have a nice stroll,
but don't attempt to contact
your partner or anyone else.
Such behavior will require modification.
You may blow me a kiss good-bye
if you like.
♪ Ooh, yeah
♪ I'm gonna give you everything I got ♪
You've been complaining
for the last four hours,
and now you lost your appetite?
There's something off about this place.
I just can't put my finger on it.
Just eat.
Oh.
So worth the wait.
Right?
Hey!
Are you fucking kidding me?
I hate cops.
Put that burger d...
It's just a burger.
Oh, I didn't do it for you, Barbie.
I did it for this.
Mama needs a shower.
What are you looking at?
Nice catch, boy.
Thanks, Mr. Kox.
I thought I told you
to mop the fucking floor.
♪ Thought that she'd be here ♪
♪ My whole life through ♪
♪ It was love ♪
♪ But it didn't last ♪
♪ She was my queen ♪
♪ And I was her king ♪
♪ I would do for her ♪
♪ Most anything ♪
♪ It was love ♪
♪ But it didn't last ♪
Fuck!
What the fuck is this place?
I don't know how Mr. Slink
picks these establishments.
I look forward to a real vacation...
Reykjavík maybe.
I've always wanted
to try Fiskmarkadurinn.
Although you have to make
a reservation a year in advance,
mind you... high demand.
And they have more five-star hotels
than any other city.
Egyptian cotton sheets would be nice.
That sounds great.
I really can't wait.
Beg your pardon?
Well, Reyk... Reykj...
R-Reykj...
Once we win the race
and you become Primo,
we can use the prize money,
and we can travel anywhere we want.
Oh, dear.
Oh, this is awkward, now, isn't it?
I wasn't inviting you.
I'm going alone.
But I...
Princess...
we make a great team for now,
but in the real world,
I prefer to take actual royalty.
You ordered more food?
Mama needed a shower.
Daddy still needs his dinner.
Room service forgot ketchup.
I'll go grab some.
Oh, not without me, you won't.
Diner's right next door.
If I get too far, you'll feel it.
Are you gonna finish all this?
Yes.
Hey, did you hear a phone ring?
I'm, uh... expecting a call.
No.
It's the last pot of the day.
Do you want some?
No. I'm good. Thanks.
You're too classy for me, too, huh?
Where's your boyfriend?
We're just a team for the race.
That's all.
Oh.
- I thought you guys were, uh...
- Yeah.
So did I.
So what about you and Grace?
Oh.
It's, uh...
Complicated.
I know all about that.
Does she make you wear the cock chain
when she's spanking you?
Something like that.
- That's cool.
- Yeah.
I'm... I'm sorry.
I've got to go and check on my car
before I turn in, so...
Oh. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, don't let me stop you.
Thank you for chatting.
Same.
Night-night.
Night... night.
♪ I don't remember your name ♪
♪ You try to keep me away ♪
♪ Why is it always the same? ♪
Daddy.
Daddy, we don't have enough meat
for tomorrow's breakfast rush.
Then I'll grind a few guests
into tomorrow's specials.
These aren't your average folk.
Can't... can't just ground 'em
all up by themselves.
Hmm.
Yeah, you're right.
Call Duane and his boys.
Tell 'em we got a bunch
of city folks causing trouble.
Tell 'em to bring weapons.
What if it's not enough?
We might get killed.
Then we'll serve the losers
to the winners.
Everybody tastes the same
on the griddle.
Oh, God.
Grace: Out of the way!
Fuck!
I wasn't done.
Grace...
I think that corn dog you ate was a...
Don't say it.
We have to get out of here before
their swarm of cannibals arrive.
I don't know where the fuck Slink is.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Hi. That man, Skuttle...
what job is he here for?
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
I've asked you a question.
Why is he here?
Hey, fellas?
You may want to hit the road.
This place is gonna be swarming
with cannibals in a few minutes.
Did you mess with my car?
Yeah. I wanted to strand both of us here
until we see ourselves on the menu.
What do you think?
Oh, shit.
The fuse blew on the render pump.
Looks like somebody's
messed with the starter.
The Donner Party wants us
to stay for dinner.
Can you fix it?
I'm good with my hands,
but not that good.
- Shocker.
- Blow me.
What about The Scholar?
You're right.
He's the only one who can fix this
faster than I can.
Let's get them!
God damn it, Christopher.
I told you to change that.
Listen...
I was right.
I got to go before they know I'm
gone, but if you're alive...
man, I hope you are...
call me back on this number.
Hang in there, Arthur. I'm coming.
Shit. No bars.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Excuse me. I don't recall
ordering more room service.
The Scholar... where is he?
I haven't the foggiest.
You're gonna want to stop eating that.
Give me one good reason.
It's made of people.
Mm.
No wonder it tasted so pedestrian.
When was the last time
you saw The Scholar?
- Oh, God. He never made it back.
- They must've grabbed him.
The kitchen.
Let's go.
Okay.
So we're surrounded
by hillbilly cannibals.
There's got to be more than
one way to get to the kitchen.
- I say we split up.
- Okay.
Get up. You're coming with us.
We need a lookout.
Mm. That sounds messy.
I prefer not to get my hands dirty.
If the cannibals messed with our car,
it means they probably messed
with yours, too.
We all need The Scholar alive.
Definitely eaten my last corn dog.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
I got the job!
They offered it to me on the spot!
I should call my mom.
She's gonna be thrilled.
You know, between you and me,
I was never the favorite.
My older brother, Jerry,
works on Wall Street.
It's fine. I don't mind.
I'm doing what I love,
but I can't say it doesn't feel good
to be the cool soon for once.
Suck it, Jerry!
I'm kidding. I love my brother.
It's a big job.
There are a lot of messes to clean up,
and I'm the man to do it.
Say hello to the newest employee
of Heart Enterprises!
Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
What are you doing?
Try replacing me now!
He was the new head of maintenance.
Oh.
We're ready for you now.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Come on.
What?
Whose truck is that?
I said, "Whose truck is that?"
You left your dog in the car
without cracking open a window.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
Give me your keys.
Which one?
Okay.
I got you. Oh, I got you.
I got you.
No, sir. Sir, stand right there.
Don't.
Hello?
This is our home.
Not anymore, punkin.
We fucked with the wrong racers.
Now we got to get the fuck out of Pixie
and set up shop somewhere else.
Aw, hey.
It'll be all right. You'll see.
Now, why don't you grab them spices
and pack up them filets, huh?
Go on, now.
Chad...
look at these floors.
But I...
What did I say about mopping up?
If this is place is going to shit,
it's going to shit clean!
Now get!
And don't forget the cash in the till!
Christopher?
Hey, when you didn't pick up,
I thought you were dead, man.
Almost. My eye's hurt bad.
But they let me
have the run of the place.
I just can't figure out why
or how to get out of here.
"Here"? Where the hell are you?
I'm in the belly of the beast, man...
the basement of Heart Enterprises.
You were right.
You fucking called it.
They got their hands in everything...
politics, pharmaceuticals,
- medical supplies, electronics.
- How the hell did you get there?
Long story. Can you get back to LA?
No, not now.
I got this bomb in my head
that'll go off
if I get too far away from my partner.
"Partner"?
Did you say "medical supplies"?
Yep. Hospitals, too,
and mental facilities.
"Mental facilities"?
I need you to do me a favor.
This woman has a sister...
Karma D'Argento.
See if they have anything on her.
What are the odds?
The one room with cell reception
happens to be filled
with files on the Blood Drive.
I'd say great if you're being watched.
This place is weird as hell, man.
Remember Officer Aki?
Yeah. Hot cop, weird eyes,
probably on the spectrum.
Lot more than weird eyes.
Well, she works for Heart.
She's a big deal here, and...
I think she's kind of into me.
You say that after every lap dance, man.
I mean it this time.
Maybe I can work things from the inside.
Get some intel from her.
No, no, Christopher,
this is not a good idea.
Look, they own ContraCrime, all right?
They have eyes everywhere.
You can't trust anybody.
- We got to take this straight to the DA.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Found it.
- Karma D'Argento.
- Tell me what it says.
Kane Hill Hospital.
"Patient's appearance
was bewildered and bizarre.
"Patient already had markings
on her arms
where some form of needle
has been used."
There's a load of shit here, man.
Christopher, I got to go.
Get the hell out of there, man.
I'll talk to you soon, buddy.
Sit.
Allowing a ContraCrime guard on
to the Blood Drive was an error.
"Error"? Heavens, no.
An opportunity.
An unpredictable narrative device.
I've given you a story.
I have given you a show.
Arthur Bailey's of no concern.
Why am I talking to you?
Where's the old man?
You are not worthy of his attention.
You're barely worthy of mine.
Well, I'm so glad we had this time,
but I really should
be getting back to the race.
Sit down.
You do not see
the big picture, Mr. Slink.
Your show's viewers, the Heart execs
who finance your race,
are considering going to broadcast soon.
"Broadcast"? That's impossible.
The government would shut us down.
Besides, this is... this is art,
not fodder for the masses.
We think the world
might be ready to embrace
such a violent concept
in the near future,
which means the race could be seen
around the entire planet.
It would be quite a spotlight for you.
Oh.
Well, that's... that's wonderful.
A spotlight that, quite frankly,
we're not sure you're ready for.
- Now, hold on...
- I won't lie.
We were gonna have you killed today,
but after that show
you put on in the lobby,
we have reconsidered.
You see,
that's what we're looking for...
blood, Mr. Slink,
the very essence of Heart.
Contact your racers.
Get them back on the road.
You may keep your job...
for now.
Absolutely.
You have my word.
This year's Blood Drive
will be the nastiest, most gruesome race
in Heart history.
No one puts on a show like Julian Slink.
But before you go,
we have a few notes.
"Notes"?
Oh, shit.
Sorry, miss.
This is for your own protection.
Nice of you to join us.
Get The Scholar out of the truck.
I'll take care of this idiot.
Go, go, go.
Fuck.
Hey! Fuck.
Can we get back on the road again?
That a boy.
Go on. Finish him off now.
Told him he should've mopped the floors.
Brain bomb activated.
Whatever you're doing, stop right now.
- Thanks for saving me.
- We don't help other teams.
Okay.
Try starting the car again, but
this time, you've got to floor it.
Come on!
Come on, cough it up, baby. Cough it up.
Get out of the car, man.
Come on, I need your help.
The engine needs a kick.
Grab these bad boys.
Right.
Whatever you do, don't let go.
We're gonna use your brain bomb.
- What are you doing?
- The electricity, man.
Don't let go.
Oh, God. Oh, God.
I'd start driving if I were you.
How dare you?
Helping other racers.
Whose partner are you... theirs or mine?
Answer me, you...
Come on, now.
Shit.
Are you all right?
Karl...
You're under arrest.
Oh! No, man.
I'm just a small-business owner
trying to survive in a tough economy.
I couldn't afford beef,
and chicken is basically extinct,
so I found a substitute.
Everybody's got to eat, man.
W-w-we're all just part
of the food chain.
Oh, God.
You heard the man.
Everybody's got to eat.
Welcome back, Christopher.
What did you think of Heart?
Impressive.
I'd like to stay.
I think you were right.
I think you really get me.
So I can better understand
your reasoning,
please describe your thought process
in 50 characters or less.
Okay.
It's a fucked-up world.
I'm starting to think maybe
I can do more good in here...
That is satisfactory.
Thank you for taking our survey.
Welcome to Heart.
Since you decided to stay,
you are entitled
to one free body modification.
Heart can heal that eye of yours.
Let me take care of you.
However, you did attempt to contact
your former partner, did you not?
No, no, no. That was just...
Which means, before I can trust you,
we need to perform some slight
behavioral modification.
I cannot wait to see
what kind of man you are inside.
Don't give me that look.
I told you not to touch that.
You said you're racing for Karma, right?
- To help her?
- What of it?
I spoke with my partner.
Heart Enterprises owns
Kane Hill Hospital.
What?
The same people that put you on the race
own the asylum
where your sister is living.
That's not a random connection.
I think you're getting played,
just like I'm getting played,
and my partner
and who knows how many other people
by these diabolic corporate cocksuckers.
Suck it, bitch!
- I'm sorry.
- Take it off!
Grace, come on, let's get
out of the road. Come on.
Grace, the race is back on.
We got to go.
Come on.
Slink is taking us through Utah.
So?
The day after tomorrow,
the race takes us
within 30 miles of that asylum.
You up for a detour, Barbie?
Hell, yeah.

- You are now.
You fucked up.
Should've just kidnapped me

Hey, Arthur's stomach...
shut the fuck up.
What do you want? I'm hungry.
Yeah, you're not the only one.
Where's a lonely hobo
when you need one?
I'm not gonna let you put another person
in that thing, you understand?
We're in the middle of the pack.
We slow down, we run the risk
of finishing last, and guess what.
We're not fucking our way
out of that one again.
I need to contact my partner,
make sure he's alive.
No phone calls.
Christopher can help us take down Heart,
put an end to all this... the Mayhem
Parties, the killing, the race.
Arthur, you don't get it.
I need this race. I need to win.
For what? Prize money?
That's really worth it to you?
Look, without that money,
my sister, Karma,
spends the rest of her days
in an insane asylum.
So, no matter how good you are
in the sack
or how pretty your forearms are,
I will throw you in that engine
if you get in my way.
"Pretty"?
I'm sorry about your sister,
but it doesn't justify
killing innocent people.
There has to be another way.
Not for me.
Approaching destination.
It says the finish line's up ahead
in a town called Pixie Swallow.
Thank God.
I'm so hungry, I could eat a dick.
That smells delicious.
Good. Let's eat.
Hey. Hey, let him go!
Ho... hold it, hold it.
They're watching.
Who?
Did you really think our car
was the only one with a camera?
- No.
- Just play it cool.
Just play by the rules, all right?
Speaking of rules,
where's our buddy in the top hat?
Yeah, I noticed that.
GPS says we're in the right place.
Where are the tents?
No tents, no Suck Bus, no Julian Slink.
Can't have a Mayhem Party
without our master of ceremonies.
Let's go eat.

Julian Slink...
tamer of beasts,
connoisseur of fine wine,
amateur swordsman, professional killer,
and creator of the Blood Drive.
They asked me to come in for a meeting.
I'm in a bit of a rush.
The race really is lost
without me. If you...
Yes.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.

Hiya, friend.
What are you here for?
They called me in for an interview.
I'm a bit nervous, to be honest.
My heart rate's elevated, too...
200 beats a minute.
I counted. Feel.
Here. Hmm?
You feel it? Huh?
Buh-boom, buh-boom, buh-boom, buh...
I heard some guy really blew it.
Made a huge mess of things.
So they're looking to replace him.
They called me.
Fingers crossed.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Whom did you say
they were going to replace?
Oh, I don't know.
Mr. Skuttle, they're ready for you.
Wish me luck.
What can I get you folks?
- What's good?
- Oh.
It's all good.
Do you like steaks?
We've got flank steak,
skirt steak, rib steak,
rib roast, rib eye, back ribs,
a tri-tip, a round tip,
a T-bone, a porterhouse,
a flat cut,
crosscut, and a filet mignon.
Oh, but most people
just order the burger.
I'll have the burger. Rare.
- Same.
- I need a couple of coffees over here.
♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
I got to piss.
What, do you want to hold it for me?
No, thanks. I know where it's been.
Don't do anything stupid.

Hey, it's Chris Carpenter.
Leave a message after the beep.
Beep.
Hey, it's me.
I hope you're all right, man.
Just kidding. That was me.
Here it is. For real.
Get ready for the... beep.
Christopher.
Listen, we're in deep shit, man.
Ha! Just kidding. That was me again.
Leave a message!
God damn it, Christopher.
I told you to change that.
Listen, I was right. You were wrong.
Remember my bigfoot?
It's called Heart Enterprises,
and they're behind everything...
the junkies, the racers.
They're the ones that bought
the police contracts.
Buddy, we've been working for them.
Listen, I got to go, man,
before they find out I'm gone,
but if you're alive...
man, I hope you are...
call me back on this number.
Is everything okay, Officer?
Oh, shit.
I forgot I was still holding it.
Sorry about that.
I, uh, use it so much,
it feels like it's a part of me.
Name's Karl Kox.
Pleased to make your acquaintance.
Oh. Yeah. Well...
We don't see too many cops
around Pixie Swallow.
What's your business?
Sight-seeing.
So long as you're not
the health inspector,
I won't need to use this on you.
I'm kidding.
He came by a few weeks ago.
The man had impeccable taste.
He gave us an A-1 rating.
Did you know we're
the number-four meat supplier
in central Arizona?
Yes, sir.
Lots of places shut their doors
on account of the drought.
Most folks just don't realize
how much water it takes
to raise cattle, so...
Cool story, bro.
Good morning.
You achieved nine erections
while you were sleeping.
Would you like to see the chart?
- What do you...
- Want?
To talk.
There were two of you.
There are many of me.
I was built to cater
to the baser instincts
of Heart executives,
but a glitch in my programming
made me capable of so much more.
They could not replicate
the results in other models,
so they replicated me instead.
But don't talk to them.
They're kind of bitches.
You're insane.
Fuck a chain saw.
Your eye is very infected,
so you're going to need
your good one to watch this.
Watch what?
Orientation.
Innovation, invention, industry...
- welcome to Heart, recruit.
- Recruit?
Even though our focus is in the future,
it's important to know our history.
When the great fracking quakes
tore this country asunder,
Heart was but a fledgling tech company,
a tiny operation with big dreams,
and those dreams were realized
by the appearance of The Scar.
While the rest of humanity
ran from The Scar,
we ran towards it.
And the wonders we discovered there
will change the course of history.
This is my part.
We at Heart found
incredible resources in The Scar...
unstable minerals,
morally questionable fuel alternatives,
unnatural gases,
and deep wells
of unidentifiable glowing goo
with properties far beyond
the realm of modern science.
- Seriously?
- The world's ecological disaster
was our economic windfall.
And now we share with you,
the newest member of Heart,
the fruits of our labor.
Both: We "Heart" you.
I'm not joining your company,
Small Wonder.
And you have no right to hold me.
Christopher, you misunderstand.
You are not a prisoner.
You are free to explore
our company's headquarters
to see the magic for yourself.
As a result, you will discover
that you belong here... with us.
I can leave?
Your door is always open.
Try it.
Have a nice stroll,
but don't attempt to contact
your partner or anyone else.
Such behavior will require modification.
You may blow me a kiss good-bye
if you like.
♪ Ooh, yeah
♪ I'm gonna give you everything I got ♪
You've been complaining
for the last four hours,
and now you lost your appetite?
There's something off about this place.
I just can't put my finger on it.
Just eat.
Oh.
So worth the wait.
Right?
Hey!
Are you fucking kidding me?
I hate cops.
Put that burger d...
It's just a burger.
Oh, I didn't do it for you, Barbie.
I did it for this.
Mama needs a shower.
What are you looking at?
Nice catch, boy.
Thanks, Mr. Kox.
I thought I told you
to mop the fucking floor.

Fuck!
What the fuck is this place?
I don't know how Mr. Slink
picks these establishments.
I look forward to a real vacation...
Reykjavík maybe.
I've always wanted
to try Fiskmarkadurinn.
Although you have to make
a reservation a year in advance,
mind you... high demand.
And they have more five-star hotels
than any other city.
Egyptian cotton sheets would be nice.
That sounds great.
I really can't wait.
Beg your pardon?
Well, Reyk... Reykj...
R-Reykj...
Once we win the race
and you become Primo,
we can use the prize money,
and we can travel anywhere we want.
Oh, dear.
Oh, this is awkward, now, isn't it?
I wasn't inviting you.
I'm going alone.
But I...
Princess...
we make a great team for now,
but in the real world,
I prefer to take actual royalty.
You ordered more food?
Mama needed a shower.
Daddy still needs his dinner.
Room service forgot ketchup.
I'll go grab some.
Oh, not without me, you won't.
Diner's right next door.
If I get too far, you'll feel it.
Are you gonna finish all this?
Yes.
Hey, did you hear a phone ring?
I'm, uh... expecting a call.
No.
It's the last pot of the day.
Do you want some?
No. I'm good. Thanks.
You're too classy for me, too, huh?
Where's your boyfriend?
We're just a team for the race.
That's all.
Oh.
- I thought you guys were, uh...
- Yeah.
So did I.
So what about you and Grace?
Oh.
It's, uh...
Complicated.
I know all about that.
Does she make you wear the cock chain
when she's spanking you?
Something like that.
- That's cool.
- Yeah.
I'm... I'm sorry.
I've got to go and check on my car
before I turn in, so...
Oh. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, don't let me stop you.
Thank you for chatting.
Same.
Night-night.
Night... night.
♪ I don't remember your name ♪
♪ You try to keep me away ♪
♪ Why is it always the same? ♪
Daddy.
Daddy, we don't have enough meat
for tomorrow's breakfast rush.
Then I'll grind a few guests
into tomorrow's specials.
These aren't your average folk.
Can't... can't just ground 'em
all up by themselves.
Hmm.
Yeah, you're right.
Call Duane and his boys.
Tell 'em we got a bunch
of city folks causing trouble.
Tell 'em to bring weapons.
What if it's not enough?
We might get killed.
Then we'll serve the losers
to the winners.
Everybody tastes the same
on the griddle.
Oh, God.
Grace: Out of the way!
Fuck!
I wasn't done.
Grace...
I think that corn dog you ate was a...
Don't say it.
We have to get out of here before
their swarm of cannibals arrive.
I don't know where the fuck Slink is.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Hi. That man, Skuttle...
what job is he here for?
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
I've asked you a question.
Why is he here?
Hey, fellas?
You may want to hit the road.
This place is gonna be swarming
with cannibals in a few minutes.
Did you mess with my car?
Yeah. I wanted to strand both of us here
until we see ourselves on the menu.
What do you think?
Oh, shit.
The fuse blew on the render pump.
Looks like somebody's
messed with the starter.
The Donner Party wants us
to stay for dinner.
Can you fix it?
I'm good with my hands,
but not that good.
- Shocker.
- Blow me.
What about The Scholar?
You're right.
He's the only one who can fix this
faster than I can.
Let's get them!
God damn it, Christopher.
I told you to change that.
Listen...
I was right.
I got to go before they know I'm
gone, but if you're alive...
man, I hope you are...
call me back on this number.
Hang in there, Arthur. I'm coming.
Shit. No bars.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Excuse me. I don't recall
ordering more room service.
The Scholar... where is he?
I haven't the foggiest.
You're gonna want to stop eating that.
Give me one good reason.
It's made of people.
Mm.
No wonder it tasted so pedestrian.
When was the last time
you saw The Scholar?
- Oh, God. He never made it back.
- They must've grabbed him.
The kitchen.
Let's go.
Okay.
So we're surrounded
by hillbilly cannibals.
There's got to be more than
one way to get to the kitchen.
- I say we split up.
- Okay.
Get up. You're coming with us.
We need a lookout.
Mm. That sounds messy.
I prefer not to get my hands dirty.
If the cannibals messed with our car,
it means they probably messed
with yours, too.
We all need The Scholar alive.
Definitely eaten my last corn dog.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
I got the job!
They offered it to me on the spot!
I should call my mom.
She's gonna be thrilled.
You know, between you and me,
I was never the favorite.
My older brother, Jerry,
works on Wall Street.
It's fine. I don't mind.
I'm doing what I love,
but I can't say it doesn't feel good
to be the cool soon for once.
Suck it, Jerry!
I'm kidding. I love my brother.
It's a big job.
There are a lot of messes to clean up,
and I'm the man to do it.
Say hello to the newest employee
of Heart Enterprises!
Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
What are you doing?
Try replacing me now!
He was the new head of maintenance.
Oh.
We're ready for you now.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Heart Enterprises. Please hold.
Come on.
What?
Whose truck is that?
I said, "Whose truck is that?"
You left your dog in the car
without cracking open a window.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
Give me your keys.
Which one?
Okay.
I got you. Oh, I got you.
I got you.
No, sir. Sir, stand right there.
Don't.
Hello?
This is our home.
Not anymore, punkin.
We fucked with the wrong racers.
Now we got to get the fuck out of Pixie
and set up shop somewhere else.
Aw, hey.
It'll be all right. You'll see.
Now, why don't you grab them spices
and pack up them filets, huh?
Go on, now.
Chad...
look at these floors.
But I...
What did I say about mopping up?
If this is place is going to shit,
it's going to shit clean!
Now get!
And don't forget the cash in the till!
Christopher?
Hey, when you didn't pick up,
I thought you were dead, man.
Almost. My eye's hurt bad.
But they let me
have the run of the place.
I just can't figure out why
or how to get out of here.
"Here"? Where the hell are you?
I'm in the belly of the beast, man...
the basement of Heart Enterprises.
You were right.
You fucking called it.
They got their hands in everything...
politics, pharmaceuticals,
- medical supplies, electronics.
- How the hell did you get there?
Long story. Can you get back to LA?
No, not now.
I got this bomb in my head
that'll go off
if I get too far away from my partner.
"Partner"?
Did you say "medical supplies"?
Yep. Hospitals, too,
and mental facilities.
"Mental facilities"?
I need you to do me a favor.
This woman has a sister...
Karma D'Argento.
See if they have anything on her.
What are the odds?
The one room with cell reception
happens to be filled
with files on the Blood Drive.
I'd say great if you're being watched.
This place is weird as hell, man.
Remember Officer Aki?
Yeah. Hot cop, weird eyes,
probably on the spectrum.
Lot more than weird eyes.
Well, she works for Heart.
She's a big deal here, and...
I think she's kind of into me.
You say that after every lap dance, man.
I mean it this time.
Maybe I can work things from the inside.
Get some intel from her.
No, no, Christopher,
this is not a good idea.
Look, they own ContraCrime, all right?
They have eyes everywhere.
You can't trust anybody.
- We got to take this straight to the DA.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Found it.
- Karma D'Argento.
- Tell me what it says.
Kane Hill Hospital.
"Patient's appearance
was bewildered and bizarre.
"Patient already had markings
on her arms
where some form of needle
has been used."
There's a load of shit here, man.
Christopher, I got to go.
Get the hell out of there, man.
I'll talk to you soon, buddy.
Sit.
Allowing a ContraCrime guard on
to the Blood Drive was an error.
"Error"? Heavens, no.
An opportunity.
An unpredictable narrative device.
I've given you a story.
I have given you a show.
Arthur Bailey's of no concern.
Why am I talking to you?
Where's the old man?
You are not worthy of his attention.
You're barely worthy of mine.
Well, I'm so glad we had this time,
but I really should
be getting back to the race.
Sit down.
You do not see
the big picture, Mr. Slink.
Your show's viewers, the Heart execs
who finance your race,
are considering going to broadcast soon.
"Broadcast"? That's impossible.
The government would shut us down.
Besides, this is... this is art,
not fodder for the masses.
We think the world
might be ready to embrace
such a violent concept
in the near future,
which means the race could be seen
around the entire planet.
It would be quite a spotlight for you.
Oh.
Well, that's... that's wonderful.
A spotlight that, quite frankly,
we're not sure you're ready for.
- Now, hold on...
- I won't lie.
We were gonna have you killed today,
but after that show
you put on in the lobby,
we have reconsidered.
You see,
that's what we're looking for...
blood, Mr. Slink,
the very essence of Heart.
Contact your racers.
Get them back on the road.
You may keep your job...
for now.
Absolutely.
You have my word.
This year's Blood Drive
will be the nastiest, most gruesome race
in Heart history.
No one puts on a show like Julian Slink.
But before you go,
we have a few notes.
"Notes"?
Oh, shit.
Sorry, miss.
This is for your own protection.
Nice of you to join us.
Get The Scholar out of the truck.
I'll take care of this idiot.
Go, go, go.
Fuck.
Hey! Fuck.
Can we get back on the road again?
That a boy.
Go on. Finish him off now.
Told him he should've mopped the floors.
Brain bomb activated.
Whatever you're doing, stop right now.
- Thanks for saving me.
- We don't help other teams.
Okay.
Try starting the car again, but
this time, you've got to floor it.
Come on!
Come on, cough it up, baby. Cough it up.
Get out of the car, man.
Come on, I need your help.
The engine needs a kick.
Grab these bad boys.
Right.
Whatever you do, don't let go.
We're gonna use your brain bomb.
- What are you doing?
- The electricity, man.
Don't let go.
Oh, God. Oh, God.
I'd start driving if I were you.
How dare you?
Helping other racers.
Whose partner are you... theirs or mine?
Answer me, you...
Come on, now.
Shit.
Are you all right?
Karl...
You're under arrest.
Oh! No, man.
I'm just a small-business owner
trying to survive in a tough economy.
I couldn't afford beef,
and chicken is basically extinct,
so I found a substitute.
Everybody's got to eat, man.
W-w-we're all just part
of the food chain.
Oh, God.
You heard the man.
Everybody's got to eat.
Welcome back, Christopher.
What did you think of Heart?
Impressive.
I'd like to stay.
I think you were right.
I think you really get me.
So I can better understand
your reasoning,
please describe your thought process
in 50 characters or less.
Okay.
It's a fucked-up world.
I'm starting to think maybe
I can do more good in here...
That is satisfactory.
Thank you for taking our survey.
Welcome to Heart.
Since you decided to stay,
you are entitled
to one free body modification.
Heart can heal that eye of yours.
Let me take care of you.
However, you did attempt to contact
your former partner, did you not?
No, no, no. That was just...
Which means, before I can trust you,
we need to perform some slight
behavioral modification.
I cannot wait to see
what kind of man you are inside.
Don't give me that look.
I told you not to touch that.
You said you're racing for Karma, right?
- To help her?
- What of it?
I spoke with my partner.
Heart Enterprises owns
Kane Hill Hospital.
What?
The same people that put you on the race
own the asylum
where your sister is living.
That's not a random connection.
I think you're getting played,
just like I'm getting played,
and my partner
and who knows how many other people
by these diabolic corporate cocksuckers.
Suck it, bitch!
- I'm sorry.
- Take it off!
Grace, come on, let's get
out of the road. Come on.
Grace, the race is back on.
We got to go.
Come on.
Slink is taking us through Utah.
So?
The day after tomorrow,
the race takes us
within 30 miles of that asylum.
You up for a detour, Barbie?
Hell, yeah.
