CARS 2

WRITTEN BY

BEN QUEEN

A sleek British sports car talks directly to us in a pixilated, garbled video. He's OUT OF BREATH. Crates are visible behind him. We're in the shadowy bowels of a steel room.

LELAND TURBO

This is Agent Leland Turbo. I have a flash transmission for Agent Finn McMissile.

SUPERIMPOSE OVER BLACK: WALT DISNEY PICTURES PRESENTS

LELAND TURBO

Finn. My cover's been compromised. Everything's gone pear-shaped.

SUPERIMPOSE OVER BLACK: A PIXAR ANIMATION STUDIOS FILM

LELAND TURBO

You won't believe what I've found out here.

He angles our camera view, reveals a PORTHOLE through which we can see flames rising in the distance.

LELAND TURBO

This is bigger than anything we've ever seen. And no one even knows it exists. Finn, I need backup. But don't call the cavalry - it could blow the operation. And be careful. It's not safe out here!

ANGRY VOICES O.S. Time for Turbo to go.

LELAND TURBO

Transmitting my grids now. Good luck!

Coordinates appear: 40 6.80' N - 172 23.84' W

TITLE CARD: CARS 2

EXT. SOMEWHERE IN THE NORTH PACIFIC - NIGHT

A TINY CRAB BOAT (CRABBY) crests over massive swells.

CRABBY

Alright buddy, we're here. Right where you paid me to bring you. Question is, why?

A metallic blue sports car, circa the `60s, emerges from the 2.

shadows. Cagey, smooth, he'd turn heads driving through any intersection in the world. Meet FINN MCMISSILE.

FINN

I'm looking for a car.

CRABBY

A car? Hey pal, you can't get any further away from land than out here.

FINN

Exactly where I want to be.

CRABBY

Well I got news for you, buddy. There's nobody out here but us.

Suddenly, a HORN -- a COMBAT SHIP, the size of most cruise ships. FINN quickly backs into the shadows, out of sight.

COMBAT SHIP

What are you doing out here?

CRABBY

What does it look like, genius? I'm crabbing!

COMBAT SHIP

Well turn around and go back where you came from.

CRABBY

Yeah? And who's gonna make me?

A laser sight hits Crabby between the eyes.

CRABBY

Alright, alright! Don't get your prop in a twist. (as he turns to leave) What a jerk. Sorry, buddy. Looks like it's the end of the line. Buddy?

ON CRABBY'S DECK: Finn is gone. CUT TO:

FINN - He HANGS off the side of COMBAT SHIP, clandestine.

We're with Finn as the ship continues on, cuts through the darkness with purpose. Suddenly small flames appear, perhaps a knot or so away. Then WHOOSH!!! A flame rises above Finn, the ship. It illuminates an OIL DERRICK. 3.

THWAP! Finn fires a GRAPPLING HOOK to the derrick and SWINGS toward it. He's going to SLAM into the side with brute force WHEN ---

--- HIS TIRES sprout a magnetic exoskeleton. He STICKS to the derrick and now DRIVES VERTICALLY UP UP UP...

From this vantage point, hundreds of derricks appear.

EXT. PLATFORM - OIL DERRICK - MOMENTS LATER

Finn approaches a loading bay from above, hides. He watches as GREMLINS, PACERS and assorted other cars scurry about.

FINN (INTO RADIO)

Leland Turbo, this is Finn McMissile. I'm at the rally point. Over.

No response.

FINN (INTO RADIO)

Leland, it's Finn. Please respond. Over.

AN ACCESS DOOR OPENS LOUDLY below. A boxy, monacle-wearing German car enters. This is PROFESSOR OTTO ZUNDAPP.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

(in German and English)

Too many cars here. Out of my way!

FINN

Professor Zundapp?

PACER (O.S.)

Here it is, Professor.

Zundapp approaches a NOSY PACER who idles next to a CRATE.

NOSY PACER

You wanted to see this before we load it?

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

Ah, yes. Very carefully...

A forklift opens the crate -- inside is a TV CAMERA, packed carefully in foam. Finn SNAPS PHOTOS FURIOUSLY.

NOSY PACER

Oh. A TV camera. What does it actually do? 4.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

This camera is extremely dangerous.

FINN

(TO HIMSELF)

What are you up to now, Professor?

Finn, angling for a better view, FIRES SUSPENSION WIRES ---

--- which sail clear to the other side of the derrick ---

--- THOK! They hook tightly onto a steel girder.

Finn slides out ONTO THE WIRE like an acrobat, then expels another cross-wire for support.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

This is valuable equipment. Make sure it is properly secured for the voyage.

NOSY PACER

You got it.

Finn LOWERS HIMSELF. He snaps more pictures.

GREM (O.S.)

Hey, Professor Z!

Zundapp turns as a CRANE LOWERS A CAR-SIZED CRATE. GREM and ACER, an orange Gremlin and a green Pacer, flank it.

GREM

This is one of those British spies we told you about.

ACER

Yeah. This one we caught sticking his bumper where it didn't belong.

Finn PRODUCES SEMI-AUTOMATIC GUNS from his side, readies himself for a tag-team spy fight with his buddy Leland.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

Agent Leland Turbo.

The crate is lifted, revealing a CRUSHED, CUBED Leland Turbo.

Finn's eyes go wide. Suddenly --- WHOOOSHHH! Another derrick flame rises behind him, casts a Finn-shaped SHADOW over the Professor. He looks up. 5.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

It's Finn McMissile! He's seen the camera! Kill him!!

Finn UNLOADS with bullets as he starts to retreat --- He STOPS:

BAD GUY CARS are waiting for him on the catwalk where he just came from - BLOWTORCHES ready.

Finn, stuck in midair, notices an angry CRANE. Finn GRINS, having just found his escape.

THWAPTHWAPTHWAP!!! Finn releases three of his four cables, swinging, Indiana Jones-style on the last one TOWARD THE CRANE ---

--- where he lands on its BOOM, drives UP and LAUNCHES OFF IT where he LANDS - MOVING - onto another deck!

Finn now DRIVES, spraying oil and screeching around corners. A GREMLIN in pursuit hits the oil patch, loses control ---

--- and PLUMMETS OFF the side of the rig!

The Gremlin FALLS... it's like an eternity...

He smashes into the water and breaks into a million pieces.

ON FINN - Now set upon by 20 or 30 MORE pursuing cars. He has nowhere to go but UP UP UP a ramp toward the helipad. He spies some GASOLINE BARRELS, fires a SINGLE BULLET which cuts through its leather straps, sending barrels DOWN the ramp, PAST FINN ---

--- PAST the pursuing CARS ---

--- to the bottom where they EXPLODE in a CHAIN REACTION back UP THE RAMP, taking out at least 15 CARS!

ON THE HELIPAD - Finn blasts into view, pulls to a stop. No more road. Nowhere else to go.

The 20 BAD GUY CARS that are still in pursuit surround him, fire up their blowtorches. About to pounce.

Finn GRINS. The second time we've seen this grin. It means he's got something cooking.

Finn's REVERSE LIGHTS appear. He DRIVES BACKWARD off the edge of the helipad to the SHOCK of the other cars.

Finn falls. He turns himself so he's grill first, cleanly cutting into the water. 6.

He EMERGES, now sprouting HYDROFOIL and speeds away.

GREM

(NONPLUSSED)

Get to the boats.

THE BOATS - an army of combat ships quickly DROP into the sea and CHURN WATER with unprecedented fury as they quickly make up the distance between them and Finn, FIRING BULLETS as they do so.

ACER

He's getting away!

COMBAT SHIP

Not for long.

The LEAD COMBAT SHIP quietly drops a TORPEDO into the water. It skips along, connecting with Finn in his rear and EXPLODING with such force that water skyrockets into the night clouds.

UNDERWATER - McMissile SINKS. Then, he blinks. He GRINS. We're starting to like this grin and what follows it. He now CONVERTS into a submarine. From his trunk he releases four DECOY tires which float to the surface like body parts.

ON THE DERRICK - Professor Zundapp watches it all from far away.

GREM (OVER RADIO)

He's dead, Professor.

PROFESSOR ZUNDAPP

Wunderbar. With Finn McMissile gone, who can stop us now?

EXT. RADIATOR SPRINGS - DAY

TOW MATER, a rusty tow truck, putters into view.

MATER

Mater. Tow Mater, that's who... is here to help you!

He approaches a broken-down sedan on the side of the road. He drives around to the front, catching OTIS' face for the first time.

MATER

Hey, Otis! 7.

OTIS

Hey, Mater. Gosh, I'm so sorry. I thought I could make it this time, but... (he tries to start his engine, stalls) Smooth like pudding, huh? Ah, who am I kidding? I'll always be a lemon.

Mater hooks his friend and starts towing him.

MATER

Well dadgum, you're leaking oil again. Must be your gaskets. Hey, look on the bright side: This is your tenth tow this month, so that means it's on the house.

OTIS

You're the only one that's nice to lemons like me, Mater.

MATER

Don't sweat it. These things happen to everybody, Otis.

OTIS

But you never leak oil.

MATER

Yeah, but I ain't perfect. Don't tell nobody, but I think my rust is starting to show through.

Mater and Otis drive past THE RADIATOR SPRINGS WELCOME SIGN. It has been amended to say: "Home of Lightning McQueen."

OTIS

Hey, is Lightning McQueen back yet?

MATER

Not yet.

OTIS

He must be crazy-excited about winning his fourth Piston Cup. Four! Wow! 8.

MATER

Yeah, we're so dadgum proud of him. But I sure wish he'd hurry up and get back `cause we got a whole summer's worth of best friend fun to make up for. Just me and --

Ahead of them, a half-mile off, a RED RACE CAR is visible.

MATER

--- McQueen!

Mater FLOORS IT, dragging poor Otis behind him.

OTIS

Uh, Mater? I'm in no hurry. You don't need to go so fast!

Boom! They hit a bump. Otis catches air.

EXT. RADIATOR SPRINGS - DAY

Lightning McQueen is surrounded by his hometown friends.

LUIGI

Oh, Lightning. Welcome home.

FLO

Good to have you back, honey.

FILLMORE

Congratulations, man.

SARGE

Welcome home, soldier.

SHERIFF

The place wasn't the same without you, son.

LIZZIE

What? Did he go somewhere?

MCQUEEN

It's good to be home, everybody.

MATER (O.S.)

McQueen!

They all turn around, see Mater speeding into town, with Otis swerving behind him.

MCQUEEN

Mater! 9.

MATER

McQueen!

Mater skids into main street and in one swift motion, slingshots Otis forward ---

OTIS

Woaahhhhh!

--- right through Ramone's front door ---

INT. RAMONE'S - CONTINUOUS

--- where he lands perfectly on the hydraulic lift. Ramone lifts him up, routine.

RAMONE

Hey. How far'd you make it this time, Otis?

OTIS

Halfway to the county line.

RAMONE

Not bad, man.

OTIS

I know, I can't believe it either!

EXT. RADIATOR SPRINGS - CONTINUOUS

MATER

McQueen, welcome back!

MCQUEEN

Mater, it's so good to see you.

MATER

You too, buddy.

Mater and McQueen do an ELABORATE TIRE BUMP (fist bump style).

MATER

Oh, man. You ain't gonna believe the things I got planned for us.

Everyone watches as the tire bump continues.

MACK

(to Lizzie, an aside)

These best friend greetings get longer every year. 10.

MATER

(TO MCQUEEN)

You ready to have some serious fun?

MCQUEEN

Well, actually I've got something to show you first.

INT. RADIATOR SPRINGS MUSEUM - DAY

CLOSE ON THE PISTON CUP. It has now changed, been adorned with a small likeness of Doc. It says "Hudson Hornet Piston Cup."

MATER

Wow. I can't believe they renamed the Piston Cup after our very own Doc Hudson.

McQueen and Mater are alone, the museum closed to the public. McQueen approaches a "Hudson Hornet" wall with Doc's three Piston cups, framed articles, other racing ephemera.

MCQUEEN

I know Doc said these things were just old cups, but to have someone else win it just didn't feel right, you know?

MATER

Well, Doc would've been real proud of you. That's for sure.

McQueen takes this in.

EXT. RADIATOR SPRINGS - LATER

McQueen and Mater exit the Doc Hudson Museum.

MCQUEEN

Alright, pal. I've been waiting all summer for this. What've you got planned?

MATER

You sure you can handle it?

MCQUEEN

Come on, you know who you're talking to? This is Lightning McQueen. I can handle anything. 11.

EXT. RADIATOR SPRINGS - DAY

Mater and McQueen roll on an old train track, their tires off. They're on their rims.

MCQUEEN

Uh.... Mater?!
