Okay, Tread. Ready for the big race against...
yourself?
They don't call me "Ready Tready" for nothing.
I'm the fastest, undefeated driver in the city,
so I challenge myself to a race!
On your marks, get set--
Police chase?
Awesome! Real, not-me competition!
This is Lieutenant Duke DeTain.
Daisy Kaboom Lewis stole a diamond encrusted chainsaw
from the City Hardware and Jewelry store.
I'm in pursuit.
So, you think you can outrace Tread Octane, huh?
What? It's not a race.
-I'm trying to catch a thief. -Ha!
Well, I'm stealing this race!
Did ya lose that dogged lawman?
Duke's too fast!
Though Tread's giving him a run for his money.
Nice race, Duke. Too bad you lost.
It wasn't a race.
I was chasing a crook and you got in the way.
Obstruction of justice is a crime.
Ha!
The only crime in racing is losing.
I don't have time for this.
I have a thief to catch.
Looks like you lost that race, too.
-It was not a race! -Oh, yeah?
I challenge you to a race!
Did you get the diamond chainsaw?
Lost it.
I couldn't outrun Duke.
You see?
This is why I work alone.
Hey, you said it was a two-man job!
And where did you expect me
to find a stampeding herd of cattle?
Don't matter.
The whole plan's a bust.
The safe gets loaded onto that plane
in two hours.
Then we steal the chainsaw
back from the police evidence room.
You sayin' we rob the pokey, the airport safe,
and outrun that dang lawman, in two hours?
Ain't no one that fast.
Hmm. Actually...
Add a new spark plug, balance the crankshaft and boom!
Car fixed in ten minutes!
That's a Tread record!
Tread Octane?
Hey. Weren't you racing that cop?
-Yeah. -Good race.
What can I do for ya?
I wanted to see if you could fix my motorcycle.
Uh, it'll take me at least a week.
So much for the race today.
Did you say race?
As in "I challenge you to a..."?
You bet.
I'm, uh, racing Duke DeTain.
Ha! I wiped the track with that guy.
Well, that's not what Duke said.
I think his exact words were,
"Tread Octane drives like my grandma."
But Duke's Grandma drives super slow
and leaves her turn signal on.
I know, I've raced her eighteen times.
I challenge Duke to a race!
Well, I guess you and I
could race Duke together in your hot rod.
There is no "together" in racing.
Tread Octane is a lone wolf,
and not just 'cause I get lost in the woods a lot.
No problem.
I'll sit in the passenger seat
while you do all the driving...
-And winning.
Deal. But you have to push your seat back
as far as it goes so I pass the finish line first.
Yes!
Across town in less than three minutes.
That's a new Tread record!
So, uh, you wait here.
My friend doesn't "cotton" to strangers.
And until I figure out what "cotton" means,
it's better to play it safe.
One, two, three--
-Snake!
Dang it.
Almost had four hulas.
I found a getaway driver.
What's up, weird cowboy dude?
The name's Snake Rattler!
I'll never remember that.
I'm just gonna call you weird cowboy dude.
I told you this was a two-man job.
I'm telling you, this guy is fast.
If anyone can outrun Duke DeTain,
it's Tread Octane.
I don't know 'bout this, Daisy.
You really think we can trust this city slicker?
Well, I don't know if he's cool with the whole
"breaking the law" thing,
so I told him we're racing Duke DeTain.
Tread will do anything to win.
Okay, but this guy better do as he's told.
Remember, you mess with the Snake,
you get the fangs.
Is that your new catchphrase?
I dunno, you like it?
It's either that or...
"Snake Rattler... Silent but deadly."
I'd go with the first one.
Okay, Tread, you wait here at the, uh,
starting line.
Hope you're ready to race, partner.
I was born ready, and bald, and naked,
weird cowboy dude.
The plan is to infiltrate the police station
dressed as lawmen,
grab the diamond chainsaw, and get out.
Here's your disguise.
Remember. You're Detective Sam Grizzled
and I'm Detective Rooky Partnur.
You know Rooky's a woman, right?
Yeah. I'm comfortable with non-traditional casting.
Howdy, lawman.
Clearly, it's me, Rooky.
We need that diamond encrusted chainsaw
Duke just placed in evidence, savvy?
Jeesh, Rooky, are you okay?
You sound a touch more old western than usual,
plus you're wearing an eye-patch.
Uh, she's fine.
Allergies.
Right.
Allergies.
Ahh-choo.
Now, can we get that chainsaw, lawman?
I sympathize.
I'm allergic to everything with a vowel.
Sure, go on in.
Look at all this evidence I stole.
Here is the double cross ruby I stole form the museum.
And the peregrine falcon I stole from the zoo.
Good times.
Quit reminiscing and help me find the chainsaw.
Hey, Alan.
We're here to get the Giant Boomerang
-out of evidence. -Uh...
Aren't you already in the evidence room?
Wow, Rooky, your allergy cleared up fast!
I've had this rash on my clavicle for weeks.
-Maybe you could just take a-- -Wait, what do you mean "already"?
What the... It's us!
Wow! I look great!
Rooky, Grizzled, Rooky, Grizzled.
Hey, what's going on here?
Duke, these two are dressed as me and Grizzled
to rob the evidence room.
Or maybe you're dressed as me and Grizzled
to rob the evidence room.
All right. You got us.
Grizzled, they're not us! We're us!
Clearly, they're the imposters,
because the real Grizzled is too lazy
to carry a heavy chainsaw.
Rooky Number One is right.
Real me would fake a back injury and make Rooky Number Two do it!
Hey, they're getting away!
Grizzled, come on!
Other us are getting away!
Darn it.
I really wanted a day with no running.
Huh? Is that Tread?
I didn't think he was a crook.
He did charge me a criminally high price for an oil change.
After them!
The race is on, Tread.
First one to the airport then back to Snake's place wins.
-Awesome!
Pull over, Tread!
Ha! Nice try!
Not pulling over is the first rule of winning races.
Ha-ha!
Tread, what are you doing?
Beating you!
Regret challenging Tread Octane to a race now?
But, I...
Yes! You've completed the first leg of the race.
Now, get over to that crane.
So, it's like an obstacle course?
Yeah.
You gotta do a donut under the safe, uh,
then get back to the finish line for the win!
Cool!
Hold on!
-Whoo!
We did it! We got the loot!
Uh, quick question,
'cause even my questions are fast,
did we just rob that money from the airport?
Define "rob".
Steal.
-Then, yes.
Tread, look! Right up there!
It's the finish line!
You're gonna do it!
You're gonna beat Duke DeTain in a race!
Tread, it's not too late!
You've gotta put a stop to this!
Don't listen to him, Tread.
As soon as you slow down, Duke'll blow by you and win,
and Tread Octane doesn't come in second place.
Keep driving or I soak your car's interior!
No!
Do you know how mildly irritating it is
to clean soda stains out of leather?
Tread, what are you doing?
This isn't the way to Snake's house!
Nope! It's the way to the big house.
Tread! You captured the bad guys!
That's kind of winning, right?
If by "winning" you mean "going to jail", then yes.
You can't put Tread in jail.
Look, Snake and I tricked him into helping us
by saying it was a race.
All Tread was doing
was driving recklessly through the streets.
Which is also a crime.
Quiet, Snake.
Look, unlike me and Snake here, Tread never chose to be bad.
All right, Tread.
You can go, but your competitive streak is gonna get you in big trouble
one of these days.
What about my car?
We're gonna keep it for a few days as evidence.
You can race again when you get it back.
Who needs a car? First one to the junkyard wins!
Yeah!
I'm winning!
