Special Agent John Utah, day number one in LA. Welcome aboard.
..but out here you have exactly zero hours of experience in the field.
lf you knew you knew nothing, that'd be something, but you don't.
Yes, sir.
l like my people to be fit. We don't drink and we sure as hell don't smoke!
(Utah) 1322 last year in LA County. Up 22% from the year before.
You're a real blue-flame special, son: young, dumb and full of cum. l know.
What l don't know is how you got yourself assigned out here to LA with us.
l mean, hell,...
Not so far.
OK...
- Pappas? - Yeah?
Put on the blindfold. l want to see you retrieve at least two bricks offthe bottom.
One,...
..two.
(blows whistle)
l got no idea what a blind man fetching bricks from the bottom ofthe pool...
Added to which indignity, l have been saddled with a blue-flame Quantico cat!
What?
Hm.
(screams)
Back away! Keep your hands where l can see 'em! Hands up!
We've been screwing you for years, so a few more seconds shouldn't matter!
On the floor, asshole! The money's insured so it's not worth dying for!
Sixty!
Get your hands where l can fuckin' see 'em! Thank you.
(gasps)
(Pappas) banks in three years.
No-one ever gets shot. Now, what are we talking about here?
Good moves.
Yeah, they control the room well and they stick strictly to the cash drawers.
No. They never go for the vault. They never get greedy.
Stolen switch car, they leave it running. lt looks parked from a distance.
When they run, they dump the vehicle and they vanish.
Any time you two've finished jerking off, watching MTV, we need to see the tapes.
Angelo?
Come on!
Excuse me.
l'm working a fuckin' drop car! l don't believe it. Working a drop car!
(men callinstructions)
Let me know ifyou find Jimmy Hoffa under the seat while you're at it!
The way you're going, you'll be able to solve this case and start another one.
Yeah, years.
A guy with that much time in must have a theory about these guys.
OK, fine, you've given up, fine. lt doesn't mean l have to.
Maybe you should just retire, get some rent-a-cop nightjob and tell 'Nam stories!
Listen! l was taking shrapnel in 'Nam while you were crapping in your hands!
- Yeah. What you wanna do about it? - Feels good, like you're still alive?
Yeah!
Well, since you're still alive and you're not in the box just yet,...
..why don't you tell me this theory of yours and we'll go get these guys?
OK, hotshot.
- Definitely! - Definitely.
The Ex-Presidents...
..are surfers.
Surfers.
Surfers.
Well, yeah.
Last year, Nixon scuffs the counter when he's going over,...
So l become a wax expert. Now, there's -some uses for this stuff.
Could be anything.
Not yet! Surfers use this. They rub it on their boards for traction.
Four months.
June to October.
- Same the year before. - That's right. We have one more month.
That's right!
(both) Whoa!
(Utah) Why can't l just walk around with this thing under my arm...
Well,...
..look.
You gotta get out there, learn the moves, get into their head, pick up the speech.
Come on. You're the quarterbackjock. lt's all balance, right? And co-ordination.
(gasps)
Hold on.
(coughs andsplutters)
(coughs)
Hey!
Who cares?!
God, Utah!
l still haven't found anything l can use. l gotta find an approach. A way in.
Here we go!
Yeah.
Definitely.
See ya later.
Next?
..to go!
What is it? You all of a sudden got this bug that you just have to go surfing?
No! No.
See...
Mm-hm.
And l suddenly realised that all my goals had been their goals,...
..and l hadn't been living my own life, so l wanted something for myself.
Or something.
All right.
OK. Tomorrow.
Here.
am!
..l'll teach you a few things and then after that you'll be on your own, OK?
God!
Sure.
Pop!
Pop!
You stand straight up, you'll just fall over, so let's try it again.
Shit!
Whoo!
That's Bodhi.
Hey!
Heads up!
- Hey! - (screams)
Put me down!
Uh, we know each other.
(Bodhi) Yeah!
Good catch.

Get him!
Get him!
Ready!

What the fuck is wrong with you? Don't you think that's a little out of line?
Jesus Christ! Johnny fuckin' Utah! Sorry, man. Didn't mean to get in ya face!
l knew l knew you. lt was the Rose Bowl. Three years ago you beat SC.
Yeah, l got my knee folded back about degrees the wrong way!
- Whoa! That's why you never went pro? - Two years of surgery, missed my window.
Wow!
(buzzer)
Special Agent Utah, this is not some job flipping burgers at the local drive-in!
..just how the hell did l ever let you talk me into this boneheaded idea?
No, no, no, no! Let me tell you what you've produced.
Over the last two weeks you two have produced exactly squat.
SQUAT!
During which time the Ex-Presidents have robbed two more banks!
..does either one ofyou have anything even remotely interesting to tell me?
Caught my first tube this morning,... sir!
Goddamn it! Why didn't you leave that thing in the car?
- l'm surfing on my own time. - l know, just don't rub Harp's nose in it.
- My friend... - What?
No!
No.
- My man! - Yeah!
(coughing)
Hey! When you two are done making out, l need to talk to you.
Shit.
Making a wig for my girlfriend. Thank you.
Hey, don't move! Got some huge sucker crawling right into your ear!
Got it!
What is it?
Here's a match.
Hey!
(laughs)
Angelo, l've eaten shit times andgot my lights punched outbysome psycho.
There mustbe guys here with ponytails.
lt'll be subtle, if it's here at all. They'll be a group within the group.
These guys are a real tight unit. You'll see 'em, you'll know it.
Yeah.
OK,...
..l know.
Nope!
(laughter)
Oh.
Kiss my ass!
Thank you.
Bunker.
Bunker. Well, listen, Bunker. l'm actually really glad you found me.
Yeah, why?
Shit!
Come on!
(groaning)
(moaning)
You two guys seen a kid run through here with a car stereo?
No, but there's four guys back there you might wanna check out!
Thanks, buddy!
Nazi assholes.
And the other two think they're some kind of death squad around here.
They don't understand the sea, so they'll never get the spiritual side of it.
(laughs) l might!
This is me.
So, uh, you still haven't figured out what riding waves is all about, have you?
l saw you with those guys, you're a pit bull. They didn't back you down an inch.
- And that is very rare in this world. - Thanks for stepping in.
De nada! Later!
Oh, hey. l'm having some people over at my house tonight ifyou wanna come.
Sure. Where?
Next time you leave your piece and shield in the car, stay in sight! OK?
OK, Dad.
(shouting)
The jeep belongs to a Bunker Weiss, my buddy. Guy's got quite a sheet.
(music off)
Yeah, right(!)
Cold pizza for you. lt's good for breakfast. See you.
(Utah) When did Harp say we'd get the warrant?
l like it!
You drop down into the pit. lt's feet straight down...
..and your balls, man, your balls are about this big.
Yeah, and ifyou lose it, the fish'll be picking you out ofthe coral.
You can'tjust call time-out if you don't like the way things are going.
- Ridden? - Yeah.
McCaha.
Dana Point.
..so twice a century the ocean let's us knowjust how small we really are.
And when it hits Bells Beach it'll turn into the biggest surfthis planet has ever seen.
So will l.
lf you want the ultimate, you gotta be willing to pay the ultimate price.
(laughter)
Hope you're not buying into this banzai bullshit like the rest of Bodhi's moonies!
Past it.
Come on. At least nobody's gonna see how bad you are.
- (Tyler) l don't think he's ready for this. - (Bodhi) He'll be fine.
Shit!
Shit! Shit!
Fuck!
Yaaaaaa-hoooooo!
Whooooo-hooooo!

Goose bumps.
Come here.
Holy shit!
Holy shit!

(FBl boss) Special Agent Utah, l'd like you to meet Agent Dietz.
l've been working on these fuckers for three months! THREE MONTHS!
l finally got 'em to play Wheel Of Fortune with me so l can find out their supplier,...
He has a record ofyour suspects' movements over the last three months.
All l wanna know, smart guy, is how did they rob a bank on August nd,...
- Why don't you figure that out? - lt's not an easy thing to do, is it, Utah?
Aw, shit!
Shit!
(buzzer)
(buzzer)
(groans)
(insistent buzzing)
Hey, Tyler.
Hey, Bodhi!
Time's a-wasting.
- Now! - He does this.
(excited whooping)
l gotta go.
He goes to Tower Records, buys some CDs, has lunch at Patrick's Roadhouse,...
Cute! He's inside minutes. The other guy, Roach, waited in the truck.
Wait. Then they go back home and they box up all their shit.
They load it in Bodhi's truck and they take it to a public storage unit.
l lost them after that, but the house is empty. They're definitely outta here.
Goddamn it! Why didn't you call me? They're probably halfway to Maui.
Assured Trust tomorrow, next day latest. l definitely got a feeling on this.
Angelo, l'm right this time. We can still win this one.
OK.
Tomorrow morning, first thing, we'll be at the bank like stink on shit.
Oranges, sir?
God!
Angelo, it's . !
Thank you.
Hi. Two meatball sandwiches, a tuna on wheat and two lemonades, please.

Hey, go home and get some rest. You look like hammered shit.
Now go home.
(Angelo) Damn!
Or you can't.
lt's important. lt could really affect things between you and me.
Man!
No, Rosie.
We have hit banks in three years and they haven't been able to touch us.
Fuck the stakes, Bodhi! The only person this is a game to is you. This is real!
This was never about money for us. lt was about us against the system.
That system that kills the human spirit. We stand for something.
To those dead souls inching along the freeways in their metal coffins,...
OK.
Then don't worry about this guy. l know exactly what to do with him.
(gunshot)
A lawyer!

Yo!
Other guys snort for it, jab a vein for it. All you gotta do is jump.
Yeah, l noticed you limping, but don't worry cos we're not gonna land on land.
Three minutes.
This is a ceremony we always do at the end of the summer. One last speed star.
By the way, you might wanna pull that little orange thing sometime.
Bodhi's packs are pretty shitty. They only open about halfthe time.
Less!
Bullshit.
Nah, you don't want this one, man. This one's set for a neck-breaker.
That's my man!
Let's do it!
You're about to jump out of a perfectly good aeroplane. How you feel about that?
(joyful whooping)
Whoa-ho-ho!
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Ha-ha!
Whew!
Hah!

Hop in.

(growls)
Fuck you!
(Tyler screams)
(Tyler) FUCK YOU!
l'm the only one that knows where she is. l'm the only one,...
Talk.
..as long as l meet him at a certain place and time in six hours.
You call him right now and tell him to let her go!
..and where they're going, there are no phones, so you are outta luck.
(coughs)
Oh, man.
l hate violence.
We shared time.
But when three o'clock comes he will gut her like a pig...
..because we both have the same goal: to get me where l need to go, right?
That's what l love about you, Johnny. You are just as sharp as a razor.
Murphy, take the plane down to Santa Monica, top up the tanks.
- OK, you guys, it's party time. Move it! - Right. We're on it.
lf you scare them and get them peeing down their leg, they submit.
Yet ifyou project weakness, you draw aggression. That's how people get hurt.
Oh...
There. Can't have you walking through those doors with your dick in your hand.
l can't do this.
l am an FBl agent!
Fuckin' A!
OK, Mr Carter.
LBJ.
Mr Nixon.
l'm ready.
Everybody freeze!
l'll blow out your fuckin' kneecaps, then you'll be on the floor.
Can we just get the goddamned money and get out of here!
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. May l have your attention, please?
We are the Ex-Presidents and, as you can see, we are, in fact, robbing your bank.
Uh... you, Miss Jennings, would you be a dear and open the gate for my associate?
Just do it!
Move it!
You're blowing it, man. You're breaking your own rules and pulling too much time.
. What's happening?
Fuck! Fuck!

(woman screams)
(screaming)
(whimpers)
(stops breathing)
What's the matter with you?! ls that what you want? Did you get what you wanted?
Goddamn it, who's in charge ofthis camera crew? This is a crime-scene area!
Anything you say, can and will be used against you in a court of law.
D'you understand! Understand the rights l've just read you, Utah?!
He understands his goddamned rights! Jesus Christ, kid, are you OK?
Let me show you something, pal. How does that sit in your stomach?
Come on.
Don't send him in with the black and whites, let me ride him in.
Harp, l was in this Bureau when you were still popping zits on your funny face...
Yes, that's right, and there's one thing l've learnt that you still haven't got.
Santa Monica airport. Fast! But we've got one minor problem.
What?
What?!
(brakes screech)
One thousand.
Fuckin' FBl.
(cocks gun)
Good guess.
Where's Roach?
The guy you killed was an off-duty cop. They'll nail you wherever you land.
Look, you got a death wish, fine, but don't take Tyler with you.
l walk away.
Damn.
NOOOOO!
Jesus Christ!
- Get in the plane. Start those engines. - Good(!) Tell him where we're going.
Let's go, man.
We are gonna ride this all the way, Johnny, you and me. So let's go.
(sirens)
Go!
Rosie? Yo, Rosie, this is Air Force One. Do you read me? Do you read me? Over.
Shut your mouth and take it to feet on this heading, all right?
l don't think that's such a good idea, man. We'll pop up on their screens.
Doesn't matter, we're almost there. Just gotta get you to a safe jump altitude.
Oh, fuck!
(coughs)
NOW!
You're cold because all the blood is running out ofyour body, Roach.
Rosie! Rosie, this is Air Force One. Do you copy? Do you copy? Over.
Do it! Do it now!
On three.
Oh!
l know it's hard for you. You want me so bad it's like acid in your mouth,...
Adios, amigo.
Fucker!
God! Wha...?
lf you use your other hand, what you gonna hold on with?
Pull it right now, or l blow your fuckin' head off and pull it myself.
- lt's the only way it's gonna happen. Do it. - Swear to God, l will.
Five... four...
- ..one... - Shit!
Shit!
(both shout)
(coughs)
God.
(yells in pain)
(screams)
Too bad. Looks like this time you won't be getting your man.
Johnny, l...
Yo, Johnny!
(whoops)
(radio) ..the cyclone warning is for coastal areas between Torquayand Cape Ottway.
Experts are saying this couldbe one of the worststorms in Australia's history.
Sorry, mate.
(surf thunders)
Too bad. You finally get your waves and it's totally closed out.
You crossed the line and people trusted you and they died.
(laughs)
Sorry, my friend.
Come on!
SHlT! NO!
NO!!
l told them...
..you'd go quietly.
(helicopter)
NO!
l'm screwed.
l'm gonna go to jail and l'll pay, and Johnny Utah gets his guy. Right?
Just let me go out there, let me get one wave before you take me. One wave.
Come on.
COME ON!
No, l didn't.
