The A-Team (1983) s04e10 Episode Script
There Goes The Neighborhood
1 (male narrator) In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.
These men promptly escaped from a maximum-security stockade to the Los Angeles underground.
Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune.
If you have a problem, if no one else can help and if you can find them maybe you can hire the A-Team.
[gun firing.]
(Stevi) Don't you know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down I'm feeling down Down So put down If you ever stop and thought about All the things that I could do You might tum around and leave this town And find a better way to live Let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there Let it go, let it go If you don't know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down I'm feeling down Down So put down If you ever stop and thought about All the things that I could do You might turn around and leave this town And find a better way to live Let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there She's really cooking, Woody.
C'mon, we could record her in traffic she'd still ship double platinum.
Don't you know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down Now, baby, come on, let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there Let it go, let it go Fabulous, baby.
Absolutely fabulous.
I couldn't have made it happen without you, Woody.
Thanks again.
Everybody, Woody and I have an important announcement.
All proceeds from Let it go as well as Saturday's gig at the Forum are headed to the Third World Relief Fund.
[people chattering.]
Saturday night's gig really scares me.
Why? Because another threat was phoned in to the office today.
They don't want that money going into Central Africa.
Look, I told you, I'm already into that.
And the A-Team? Some revolutionary is trying to sell you a one-way ticket to rock 'n' roll heaven and all the A- has done is sent you on a mini-tour of laundries and used-car lots.
Maybe these guys aren't worth the bread.
Back oâ Americanas! There will be no aid for those in Southern Trianna! Is that clear? Give me the tape.
C'mon, we go! [groaning.]
[grunts.]
All right, Murdock, he's headed your way.
B.
A.
, they're coming at you.
You're our last line of defense, big guy.
Hey! Get that thing out of the way! [tires screeching.]
Always wanted to play the piano.
[horn honking.]
[horn honking.]
(Woody) You guys are working for us.
Why didn't you let us know you were here? Because the fewer people that know we are here, the better.
Well, you did save her.
I'll give you that.
But it might have been nice if you caught those gorillas.
Mr.
Stone, your place is like Grand Central Station.
There are too many people for even adequate security.
A change of scenery, Colonel? Yeah, I think that might be nice.
Miss Faith, I suggest you come with us.
We'll take you someplace that no one will even think of looking for you.
We'll take you on a left turn right out of the fast lane, honey.
Hey, hey, wait a second, nobody's going anywhere.
Woody, I wanna hear what they have to say.
Apparently these guys from Northern Trianna are dead-set against your doing any concert or album that benefits their starving enemies in Southern Trianna.
We can guarantee your safety for 48 hours and get you to your gig on time.
Stevi, they were right here, they couldn't catch those creeps.
Hey, man, next time there won't be no pianos in the way.
I have a good feeling about the A-Team.
Their karma's coming from the right place.
But you understand you're splitting with the hottest voice in rock 'n' roll.
If anything happens to her-- Your asset's in very good hands.
All right.
Oh, and I wanna take the master with me.
Come on, you know the master never leaves the office.
Hey, it almost left with those guys.
If the A-Team's gonna protect me they can protect the new album as well.
The lady wants her tape.
We'll be in touch.
Such a pleasure meeting you.
Let's do lunch.
(B.
A.
) You got a plan, Hannibal? (Hannibal) All we have to do is stash Miss Faith until after the concert and then the Triannians have no reason to come after her.
I can see it now, a quiet secluded cabin by the lake fireplace, the two of us.
You know, with the right haircut we could move you out of AA ball.
Hannibal, just where do you propose stashing the most recognizable face in rock 'n' roll? We need a place with no people.
Defensible.
Desolate.
A place one way in.
Face I'll tell you exactly what we need.
[birds chirping.]
(Hannibal) Ladies and gentleman, our new home.
I love it! It's what I always dreamed of.
Colonel, we could be so happy here.
[Face sighing.]
Hello, how are you doing? Hello Mr.
Peck.
Hi.
Well, here are the keys.
Thank you.
And let me say, you have made a very wise investment.
This house is in genuine tip-top condition.
You'll find this a lovely neighborhood.
That's what we're looking for, peace and quiet.
[motorcycle engine revving.]
I see you've rented that other place we were looking at.
Yes.
I do hope that works out.
They don't look like the kind of people who can afford such a gracious contemporary.
[laughing.]
That's exactly what I thought.
But they paid six months' in advance.
I like nice quiet neighbors! I'm sure it'll all work out.
Look at those guys.
[music playing on walkman.]
Yes, my mother came to see the house.
Give her seal of approval, you know how it is.
How lovely.
Well, I really must be going.
That's enough music, mom.
You know what it does to your heart.
Rock is here to stay, son.
Well, enjoy your new home.
Enjoy.
[dog barking.]
Don't hurt my dog, mister.
Please, no.
[dog barking.]
Take it easy, B.
A.
It's taken care of.
Daddy, he was trying to hurt my dog.
I ain't too crazy about this neighborhood, Hannibal.
Good fences make good neighbors.
Colonel, can we afford this? I mean, it's so much, so soon.
Well, I was going to rent it, Hannibal and then I realized I could buy the place for only $10,000 down.
So, I got a variable mortgage starting at 10 and a quarter percent amortized over 30 years so I don't think the payments should squeeze us too much.
Oh, and B.
A there's no back alley access.
And the second story windows should make excellent gun turrets.
Face, I think this house has enormous potential.
I mean, I would just love to knock out this wall and expand the living room.
Yeah, a little paint here and there you know, some landscape work in the backyard I think we could up the resale value of this place $5, 000-$6, 000.
B.
A.
, the backyard is fenced in so it could be mined, if necessary.
This truly is a dream house.
No running in this house, young lady.
What time do I have to be home? Do I get my own stereo? And which bedroom is mine? (Face) There are only three bedrooms.
So, the Colonel and I, we'll bunk in the master.
Stevi gets her own room, of course.
The middle one, there's only one exterior wall.
And that leaves Murdock and B.
A.
as roomies.
Man, I want to share no room with this crazy fool.
Oh, come on, big guy, we'll have a great time.
We can read under the covers late at night and just scoot out the window after curfew.
I'm gonna throw you out the window after curfew.
You ain't no quiet roommate.
Be it ever so humble.
[birds chirping.]
[B.
A.
snoring.]
[clock radio playing.]
[dog barking.]
(Taylor) He fakes rig ht.
He fakes left, he backs into the basket.
He backs in.
He's up, he shoots he scores! [dog barking.]
What the hell are you looking at? Huh? [chuckling.]
Hey, Face.
You've been in there for half an hour.
You got 10 seconds before I break down the door.
Perfection takes time.
[sighing.]
What time is it? Oh, well, 8:00 a.
m.
, and I must say-- Oh, man! It's the middle of the night.
[sighing.]
(radio announcer) It's 8:05 here on a Friday morning and those freeways are a mess, folks.
h' you're in a hurry to get to work, forget it.
You better hope the boss is sitting in the car next to you because you ain't going nowhere.
But we'll be here to keep you company, right up till noon I really don't know what is with this family anymore.
The four of us just don't seem to communicate in the morning.
I have six eggs, 12 pieces of bacon, half a loaf.
Two eggs, two pieces of bacon, a single.
Three eggs, three pieces of bacon and a pair and we have an intruder at 2:00, gentlemen.
All right.
You wanna tell us who you are and what you are doing in our backyard? Joe Skrylow.
18026 Highfield Street.
I'm the head of the Neighborhood Patrol.
If it was a cup of sugar, you're after you could've used the front door.
I was on patrol.
I saw this jabrone in your living room casing the TV, other valuables I thought you were being robbed.
So I sprung into action.
Well, I feel safer already.
But just who are you guys? We're your new neighbors.
All four of you? So you guys aren't He ain't talking about what I think he's talking about, is he? We're all recently divorced.
We all decided to live together to share expenses.
Oh.
It's really nice.
Well, welcome to Highfield Street.
Thank you.
Hey that's a really nice home defense weapon.
You guys in the military? Nam.
Yeah.
Sorry I missed that picnic.
That's a shame.
Well it's nice meeting you, Joe.
[music playing on stereo.]
There they go again with that stuff.
I don't know what this neighborhood is coming to.
We're very quiet.
You'll hardly know we're here.
Hey, guys, which outfit do you dig for the suburban look? I thought you said you were four divorced men? Yeah.
This is my daughter from my first marriage.
Honey, say hello to Joe Skrylow.
What's happening? What do you say we hit the Iron Tomato for a little breakfast? My treat.
You're grounded, young lady, remember? Yes.
Stevi, why don't we talk about marrying into the family.
Why don't we skip the marriage and go straight to the honeymoon? Kids, they get wilder and wilder.
Yeah.
Sometimes it's hard to imagine they'll amount to anything.
Well, this has been a genuine pleasure.
We'll visit again soon.
Hey, wait a minute.
You guys were all in the military, right? I got something I want to show you.
You'll love it.
Come with me.
I think it's very important to get acquainted with new neighbors in a new neighborhood.
You got the guard, B.
A.
It's my pride and joy.
I plan to be ready for the Big One.
(Hannibal) You're a survivalist.
Yep.
I picked this puppy up at a swap meet, got her for a song.
A Snow Brat in L.
A now there's a bargain.
It's no longer a Snow Brat.
It's now an urban assault and escape vehicle.
Complete with life support systems and able to transverse any terrain.
Ideal for the nuclear winter.
Powdered ice cream.
Does it come in coffee almond fudge? No, just chocolate and vanilla.
I've one problem, though.
[dog barking.]
Can't seem to get the darn thing started.
[gun firing.]
[dog Whining.]
[gun firing.]
[barking.]
No, Misty, no.
[men chattering.]
Daddy.
You wanted a gun? You got a pistol.
[gun firing.]
(Taylor) Come on, let's move.
[gun firing.]
I've had enough of these guys.
I'm going down there to tell them they got to pack their bags.
[men chattering.]
[gun firing.]
[chattering.]
Hey, get your own gun.
It's my gun.
It's my gun.
Thank you, mister.
Anytime, sweetheart.
Thank you, mister.
We're your new neighbors from 18022, down the block.
We'd appreciate it if you'd show a little consideration for the rest of the folks in this neighborhood.
Who's your girlfriend? Step down here and say that, sucker.
Sorry, we're busy.
No.
Everybody back! B.
A.
The next time you lowlifes bother anybody in this neighborhood we'll be back here to do some real damage.
That was wonderful, just wonderful.
Now, that's the type of leadership we need in this neighborhood.
Thanks, it was a pleasure.
As a matter of fact you should be Block Captain.
Oh, no.
Pete, I've got nearly 14 months left before my term expires.
Yes, I think Joe here is doing a wonderful job.
A wonderful job.
Well, I think it's time for a change.
All those in favor? (all) Yeah.
Opposed? Nay, (both) Nay- Then I hereby declare Hannibal Smith.
Highfield Block Captain and head of the Neighborhood Patrol.
Congratulations.
[all applauding.]
Thanks.
[birds chirping.]
Mr.
Juarez what are you doing here? What the hell happened to you two? We got beat up by the Block Captain.
I put you in a nice quiet neighborhood for two days to wait for a shipment and you get taken out by some guy walking his dog? No, there was four guys.
What did they do? Stop on their way to their golf game? No, these guys, they weren't regular guys.
I don't wanna hear it.
All you had to do was sit tight till we get the shipment off the plane.
Was that too much to ask? We were stuck here and we couldn't make the pick-up Yeah, he's right.
until today.
You're lucky I'm letting you live to make the pick-up.
We're not gonna let some bowling team get in the way of two million in powder, huh? No, sir.
No.
[both laughing.]
Hey, is this stuff happening, or what? This stuff is junk.
Really, Hannibal, badges? Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.
We're supposed to be laying low.
Now we're the center of attention.
We can use this patrol.
While we are out doing our rounds we keep our eye out for anybody who's after Stevi.
Yeah, keeps the neighborhood free of terrorists.
Maybe catch a burglar.
I don't like it, Hannibal.
Is this another one of your piece of cake jobs that's supposed to go down 1, 2, 3? But remember, there's always 4, 5, and 6.
B.
A.
, you're just gonna have to relax and enjoy the suburban lifestyle.
It reminds me of my life before Woody discovered me.
How did you hook up with Stone, anyway? Well, I was singing at the Hot Potato in St.
Paul.
I was 17 and signed a deal with Mike Fontenetta, the bartender.
Everybody said I had a great voice.
Some people offered to take me on the road but Mikey wouldn't let me leave the Potato.
And then along came Woody Stone and offered to get you out of the contract with Fontenetta.
Right? Woody used to come in all the time.
He was looking for a career change, you know what I mean? So after he got you away from Fontenetta he signed you to a record deal and launched your career.
Yep, Woody did it all.
He's like a promotional genius.
I love the music business.
I'm starting to feel cooped up out here.
Face, what do you say, we hit the scene tonight? Stevi, you got to stay out of sight till after the concert.
Everybody knows you're a party animal and they're just waiting for you to hit the streets.
Now it's just about time for me to call your Mr.
Stone.
lam not a party animal.
I'm a party reptile.
And after that comes party criminal.
And finally, at three in the morning, zonked out on the couch (both) Party vegetable! Yes! [phone ringing.]
(Stone) Woody Stone.
Hannibal Smith.
Just want to let you know that we're okay.
Where are you? Our location isn't important.
I called to see if you had any more threats today.
No, not today.
Look, Stevi is very important to me.
I think I should know where she is.
Sorry, Mr.
Stone, that's not the way we operate.
I assure you she's safe and sound.
Hang on a second.
[lawn mower whirring.]
Here, say hello to Woody.
Not a word about our location.
Yo, Woody! [dog barking.]
[whirring.]
We'll talk to you a little later.
Doesn't anybody call before they go visiting in this neighborhood? These are the guys who gave you trouble? (Hannibal) Don't tell me, let me guess.
You're the guy from down the block who paid his rent six months in advance.
And these boys, your cub scout troops.
I come down here to tell you to stay away from me and my house.
I can't do that.
I'm the neighborhood Block Captain.
It's my job to see the neighborhood is safe.
And quiet.
Hey, that's Stevi Faith! I almost saw you at the Forum last year, but I couldn't get tickets.
Shut up.
I'm doing business here.
I can get pretty nasty.
You know, you haven't tried a burger till you've tried ours.
Now, what do you say, we go back to your house kick back, and talk this thing over? I'll bet you've got enough dope stashed in there to get the entire neighborhood stoned.
You don't know who you're dealing with, Jack.
I think I do.
You should think of relocating.
We don't like you.
And we don't want your pet squirrels cluttering up the neighborhood.
We're the Neighborhood Watch and we gonna be watching you move.
Yeah? Only one of us ends up owning this neighborhood, my friend.
It's not nice threatening your Block Captain.
[birds chirping.]
Murdock, you got four darts two with beepers, two with mikes.
Take your best shot.
You two will stay here and behave yourselves.
Hannibal.
I will.
I'm going to scout the best route to get Stevi to the concert.
B.
A.
, you and Murdock are gonna take care of our amigos, if they make a move.
Everything's gotta be an adventure, huh, Hannibal? Every road has its potholes.
And we gotta stop and fill them.
A hole is a hole.
Now we know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall (both) I'd love to Turn you on What's going on here? What happened? Did I miss something? Actually, It's all taken care of.
Taken care of? What do you mean taken care of? Those guys looked pretty peeved to me.
Are you sure you can handle the responsibilities of being Block Captain? Well, I'm catching on but it'll take me a while before I'm as good as you are.
And what's with that guy? What, you're going on patrol with a dart gun? Actually he's.
.
How about if I help him? You know, just take him around, show him the ropes.
What do you say? I'd appreciate it, neighbor.
You got a bike? Me, me (woman) Promoters have announced that tomorrow night's Stevi Faith concert is now a complete sellout.
See? See, that's the same chick.
She looks smaller on TV.
[Taylor laughing.]
Hey, come on, I was watching that.
It's time to make the move.
You call when you've got the goods.
Si, senor.
[dog barking.]
All right.
These are the Smitkowskis.
(Joe) Two adults, three children, one canine.
[dog barking.]
Two adults, three children, and one canine.
Charlie Petroski.
He's got a parakeet.
Usually quiet.
He's away in Palm Springs.
One of those.
I don't know these guys, they're new.
[car engine revving.]
Oh, yeah? He made a direct hit.
[beeping.]
It was the beeper dart.
I'll see you later.
Looks like they're taking a left about a mile up the road.
They're headed for the airport.
All right, you know what to do, big guy.
[tires screeching.]
What we need is a little distraction.
You got an atomic bomb? I can't believe you never heard of Stevi Faith.
What, Colombia, right? Si.
Man, they've got to have her records down there.
I mean, I can't believe you've never heard Born to boogie from the Ten Cent Virgin album? No? Now, what do you suppose is so special about these rotten crates and these lousy bales here? What do you know? Snow in the summertime.
Hold it on them, B.
A.
Got a regular department store here.
Let's tie 'em up, B.
A.
Another day another doper.
See, nothing to it.
Now all we got to do is just sit on Stevi till tomorrow night.
Don't say that, fool.
You're gonna jinx us.
B.
A.
, B.
A.
, it is just like Stevi said: sometimes your karma is just moving in the right direction.
Anyway, ain't no way anybody's gonna be able to locate her.
Four horses are run-- There really is no way to know-- Rock star states her plans-- Clear and cloudy and 82-- how this trade is going to affect the team's chances in its division-- Vandalism has become the number 1 problem-- 4130 don't get nothing but news.
As if I'm not depressed enough.
(announcer) Have you seen this young lady? Wait a minute.
I know that broad.
She's sold more records this past year than any singer in the country.
From where? I don't know.
That face belongs to Stevi Faith.
Queen of Rock and Roll who's reportedly been kidnapped by the fugitive A-Team.
Those are the guys next door! A $10,000 reward has been offered for any information leading to the safe return of the young singer Babe, give me the phone.
There's a standing reward for the capture of the A-Team dating back some 10 years.
In other news [phone ringing.]
(woman) Woody Stone Productions.
Hello? Yeah, I'm calling about this thing on TV.
The-- Please hold.
I'll hold.
Four divorced men sharing expenses.
This is Woody Stone.
(Joe) Yeah.
Joe Skrylow, 18026 Highfield.
I thought maybe you'd like to know that your lady singer is holed up next door to me, here.
Next door to you? Yeah.
In Canoga Park.
You're sure it's them? Absolutely, positively.
I talked to the four clowns last night.
Bunch of wimps, if you ask me.
Listen, Joe, let's keep this between me and you.
Let's keep the cops and the reporters out of it.
Why'? Because I just want to get Stevi back unharmed.
She's very important to me.
C'mon, you know with SWAT teams and military fugitives [laughing.]
Yeah.
Right.
Okay, how about this? How about if I hold them until you get here? You bring the reward money with you.
And cash.
No checks.
Sure, Joe.
I think we speak the same language.
Pack the Hawaiian shirts.
That reward money is as good as ours.
All my life I wanted people to recognize me.
[birds chirping.]
To think I was somebody special.
And now that they do I just want to be invisible again.
Ah, yes, the price of fame you lose your anonymity.
Fame.
What a concept.
I don't know whether it's me they think is special or I'm special because I'm Stevi Faith.
I think you're special either way.
[dog barking.]
I kind of like you.
Even with this haircut? Even with the haircut.
It's just that sometimes I wish I could settle down, you know.
Go back to being Stephanie Frankel.
The girl Woody discovered in Minnesota? Yeah.
Ever heard of a rock star named Frankel? You could have been the first.
Woody decided I was Stevi Faith.
She's not really a person, though, she's an image.
A corporation with a bunch of lawyers and accountants agents and managers.
They make you feel like if you stop singing you'll put half of Hollywood on the unemployment line.
That's exactly it.
Well, around here, you can be whoever you want.
Including plain old Stephanie Frankel.
(Joe on megaphone) Attention, A-Team.
Surrender immediately.
Release Stevi Faith and come out with your hands up! Come on out, and give up the girl! Hey, Joe, what's going on? This isn't very neighborly.
Ah, cut the con job.
I know all about you guys.
Now surrender immediately.
[sighing.]
What are you gonna do? Well, we can't start volleying with this joker.
He'll shoot up the whole neighborhood.
Okay, Joe, okay, you win.
We're coming right out.
What the heck are you doing, Joe? Great.
Armed and dangerous fugitives and you make them Block Captains.
Look, I'm-- Wait'll we need a Mayor.
Then we'll call San Quentin and see who's available.
I'm a pretty good judge of character, Joe and I think you're all wet about these fellows.
Hey, Joe, you're making a terrible scene here.
What do you say, we talk this out, huh? Not another move, pal.
Oh, please, don't hurt him, he's my friend! Look, they brainwashed her.
Just like that Patty Hearst kid.
Joe, come on, put down the gun.
Hey, did you bring my reward? Move! Inside! (Joe) Freeze.
All right.
Bye.
Oh, Woody, thank goodness you're here.
We cannot find the tape, Stone.
I guess we'll just have to sit and wait for your friends to come back.
[birds chirping.]
We got trouble, guys.
Stone's behind the whole thing.
He's holding Stevi and Face.
And he's got those two gorillas that attacked the sound studio to back him up.
Uh, look, Stone what do you say we talk about this over breakfast? Pass.
Woody, this is a really evil thing you're doing.
There's a karma shift here that could spell your cosmic doom.
Yeah.
She's got a point.
Where are the tapes, pal? Uh, what happened to the accent? Oh, let me guess the whole Trianna thing is just a ruse, right? To draw suspicion away from you.
Very good.
Go to the head of your class.
Boy, whatever you want, you just take like, Stevi's contract with the Hot Potato.
Yeah, poor Mike Fontenetta.
Tending bar from a wheelchair.
But that's history.
Woody, how could you? What did you think, I was gonna stand by while you gave millions to some people in Trianna? I'm really disappointed in you, Woody.
I guess I really never knew you.
I just can't understand all these bad vibes.
You know, it's like when you're a kid and you go to the beach and you make this huge sandcastle.
It turns out to be perfect.
Well, then it's time to go home.
So you step all over it so no other kid can play with it.
I made it.
It was mine to destroy.
I'm gonna do the same thing to you, Stevi Faith.
Have you ever considered psychiatric help? Okay, guys, quietly.
[dog barking.]
Let's hope it snows.
I told you before, Hannibal has the tape.
Why doesn't anyone believe me? He should've been back by now.
Oh, he's at the other house.
The one at the end of the block.
What are you talking about? Well, we rented two houses, you know I mean, just in case of attack.
Double security.
See, that way we have both ends of the cul-de-sac-- Smart.
Very smart.
Clever little group.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Wait a second, that means he knows we're here.
Okay, pretty boy what's the password? Password? We don't have a password.
What's the password? Just knock on the door, and say "It's the new Block Captain.
" "It's the new Block Captain.
" Yeah.
You got it.
What? Dixon, Minolo the boys are all busted and then we lost the whole load.
Who did this? The Block Captain! Get the artillery.
[knock on door.]
Who is it? It's the new Block Captain.
[gun firing.]
[gun firing.]
How you doing, Face? Terrific.
[guns firing.]
Well, I guess you've fallen off the charts.
That makes us number one.
With a bullet.
(Joe) Hey' guys guess we took care of them.
Tell you what, Joe.
We'll give you credit for all the arrests.
That should guarantee you being Block Captain for the rest of your life.
Yeah? Well, I deserve it.
[metallic squeaking.]
So much for your dream house.
Well, maybe we could sell it as a fixer-upper.
[sighing.]
Look, guys, I've been totaling the bills here and well, looks like we won't make money on this property.
But with Stone's original fee and the reward money on Juarez we could break even.
I thought we'd donate the fee to the Relief Fund.
To the Relief Fund.
That's a good move, Hannibal because those people need the money more than we do.
[dog barking.]
You're such a nice guy.
Thanks.
Yo, A-Team.
[sighing.]
You know, I knew all along that thing was a military marvel.
Yeah, it worked pretty well, Joe.
It's the way I designed it.
Hey,Joe, there's a few modifications you should know about.
Whoa let's not try and take the glory here, my friend.
I know every inch of that baby.
That vehicle is like a part of me.
Together we form a single fighting machine.
Yeah, you gotta give credit where credit is due, B.
A.
Hey, Mr.
Block Captain.
How about getting this monster out of the street, huh? It's scaring my kid.
Sure, Pete, no problem.
[dog barking.]
And that's no monster, pal.
That's the home defense weapon of the'80s.
We may be talking a whole new industry here.
Skrylow Home Securities.
Can't seem to get this thing started.
See you, Joe.
Wait a minute.
Hey, Joe, you don't need our help.
You and that machine are one.
We don't want to miss the curtain.
Guys.
Thanks again, Joe, for bailing us out.
Right.
Fellows how am I supposed to get this thing back in the garage?
These men promptly escaped from a maximum-security stockade to the Los Angeles underground.
Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune.
If you have a problem, if no one else can help and if you can find them maybe you can hire the A-Team.
[gun firing.]
(Stevi) Don't you know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down I'm feeling down Down So put down If you ever stop and thought about All the things that I could do You might tum around and leave this town And find a better way to live Let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there Let it go, let it go If you don't know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down I'm feeling down Down So put down If you ever stop and thought about All the things that I could do You might turn around and leave this town And find a better way to live Let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there She's really cooking, Woody.
C'mon, we could record her in traffic she'd still ship double platinum.
Don't you know by now Whether or not you can truly love me I just can't allow You to keep on with the way that you shove me down Now, baby, come on, let it go I know you can care Let it go You know I'll be there Let it go, let it go Fabulous, baby.
Absolutely fabulous.
I couldn't have made it happen without you, Woody.
Thanks again.
Everybody, Woody and I have an important announcement.
All proceeds from Let it go as well as Saturday's gig at the Forum are headed to the Third World Relief Fund.
[people chattering.]
Saturday night's gig really scares me.
Why? Because another threat was phoned in to the office today.
They don't want that money going into Central Africa.
Look, I told you, I'm already into that.
And the A-Team? Some revolutionary is trying to sell you a one-way ticket to rock 'n' roll heaven and all the A- has done is sent you on a mini-tour of laundries and used-car lots.
Maybe these guys aren't worth the bread.
Back oâ Americanas! There will be no aid for those in Southern Trianna! Is that clear? Give me the tape.
C'mon, we go! [groaning.]
[grunts.]
All right, Murdock, he's headed your way.
B.
A.
, they're coming at you.
You're our last line of defense, big guy.
Hey! Get that thing out of the way! [tires screeching.]
Always wanted to play the piano.
[horn honking.]
[horn honking.]
(Woody) You guys are working for us.
Why didn't you let us know you were here? Because the fewer people that know we are here, the better.
Well, you did save her.
I'll give you that.
But it might have been nice if you caught those gorillas.
Mr.
Stone, your place is like Grand Central Station.
There are too many people for even adequate security.
A change of scenery, Colonel? Yeah, I think that might be nice.
Miss Faith, I suggest you come with us.
We'll take you someplace that no one will even think of looking for you.
We'll take you on a left turn right out of the fast lane, honey.
Hey, hey, wait a second, nobody's going anywhere.
Woody, I wanna hear what they have to say.
Apparently these guys from Northern Trianna are dead-set against your doing any concert or album that benefits their starving enemies in Southern Trianna.
We can guarantee your safety for 48 hours and get you to your gig on time.
Stevi, they were right here, they couldn't catch those creeps.
Hey, man, next time there won't be no pianos in the way.
I have a good feeling about the A-Team.
Their karma's coming from the right place.
But you understand you're splitting with the hottest voice in rock 'n' roll.
If anything happens to her-- Your asset's in very good hands.
All right.
Oh, and I wanna take the master with me.
Come on, you know the master never leaves the office.
Hey, it almost left with those guys.
If the A-Team's gonna protect me they can protect the new album as well.
The lady wants her tape.
We'll be in touch.
Such a pleasure meeting you.
Let's do lunch.
(B.
A.
) You got a plan, Hannibal? (Hannibal) All we have to do is stash Miss Faith until after the concert and then the Triannians have no reason to come after her.
I can see it now, a quiet secluded cabin by the lake fireplace, the two of us.
You know, with the right haircut we could move you out of AA ball.
Hannibal, just where do you propose stashing the most recognizable face in rock 'n' roll? We need a place with no people.
Defensible.
Desolate.
A place one way in.
Face I'll tell you exactly what we need.
[birds chirping.]
(Hannibal) Ladies and gentleman, our new home.
I love it! It's what I always dreamed of.
Colonel, we could be so happy here.
[Face sighing.]
Hello, how are you doing? Hello Mr.
Peck.
Hi.
Well, here are the keys.
Thank you.
And let me say, you have made a very wise investment.
This house is in genuine tip-top condition.
You'll find this a lovely neighborhood.
That's what we're looking for, peace and quiet.
[motorcycle engine revving.]
I see you've rented that other place we were looking at.
Yes.
I do hope that works out.
They don't look like the kind of people who can afford such a gracious contemporary.
[laughing.]
That's exactly what I thought.
But they paid six months' in advance.
I like nice quiet neighbors! I'm sure it'll all work out.
Look at those guys.
[music playing on walkman.]
Yes, my mother came to see the house.
Give her seal of approval, you know how it is.
How lovely.
Well, I really must be going.
That's enough music, mom.
You know what it does to your heart.
Rock is here to stay, son.
Well, enjoy your new home.
Enjoy.
[dog barking.]
Don't hurt my dog, mister.
Please, no.
[dog barking.]
Take it easy, B.
A.
It's taken care of.
Daddy, he was trying to hurt my dog.
I ain't too crazy about this neighborhood, Hannibal.
Good fences make good neighbors.
Colonel, can we afford this? I mean, it's so much, so soon.
Well, I was going to rent it, Hannibal and then I realized I could buy the place for only $10,000 down.
So, I got a variable mortgage starting at 10 and a quarter percent amortized over 30 years so I don't think the payments should squeeze us too much.
Oh, and B.
A there's no back alley access.
And the second story windows should make excellent gun turrets.
Face, I think this house has enormous potential.
I mean, I would just love to knock out this wall and expand the living room.
Yeah, a little paint here and there you know, some landscape work in the backyard I think we could up the resale value of this place $5, 000-$6, 000.
B.
A.
, the backyard is fenced in so it could be mined, if necessary.
This truly is a dream house.
No running in this house, young lady.
What time do I have to be home? Do I get my own stereo? And which bedroom is mine? (Face) There are only three bedrooms.
So, the Colonel and I, we'll bunk in the master.
Stevi gets her own room, of course.
The middle one, there's only one exterior wall.
And that leaves Murdock and B.
A.
as roomies.
Man, I want to share no room with this crazy fool.
Oh, come on, big guy, we'll have a great time.
We can read under the covers late at night and just scoot out the window after curfew.
I'm gonna throw you out the window after curfew.
You ain't no quiet roommate.
Be it ever so humble.
[birds chirping.]
[B.
A.
snoring.]
[clock radio playing.]
[dog barking.]
(Taylor) He fakes rig ht.
He fakes left, he backs into the basket.
He backs in.
He's up, he shoots he scores! [dog barking.]
What the hell are you looking at? Huh? [chuckling.]
Hey, Face.
You've been in there for half an hour.
You got 10 seconds before I break down the door.
Perfection takes time.
[sighing.]
What time is it? Oh, well, 8:00 a.
m.
, and I must say-- Oh, man! It's the middle of the night.
[sighing.]
(radio announcer) It's 8:05 here on a Friday morning and those freeways are a mess, folks.
h' you're in a hurry to get to work, forget it.
You better hope the boss is sitting in the car next to you because you ain't going nowhere.
But we'll be here to keep you company, right up till noon I really don't know what is with this family anymore.
The four of us just don't seem to communicate in the morning.
I have six eggs, 12 pieces of bacon, half a loaf.
Two eggs, two pieces of bacon, a single.
Three eggs, three pieces of bacon and a pair and we have an intruder at 2:00, gentlemen.
All right.
You wanna tell us who you are and what you are doing in our backyard? Joe Skrylow.
18026 Highfield Street.
I'm the head of the Neighborhood Patrol.
If it was a cup of sugar, you're after you could've used the front door.
I was on patrol.
I saw this jabrone in your living room casing the TV, other valuables I thought you were being robbed.
So I sprung into action.
Well, I feel safer already.
But just who are you guys? We're your new neighbors.
All four of you? So you guys aren't He ain't talking about what I think he's talking about, is he? We're all recently divorced.
We all decided to live together to share expenses.
Oh.
It's really nice.
Well, welcome to Highfield Street.
Thank you.
Hey that's a really nice home defense weapon.
You guys in the military? Nam.
Yeah.
Sorry I missed that picnic.
That's a shame.
Well it's nice meeting you, Joe.
[music playing on stereo.]
There they go again with that stuff.
I don't know what this neighborhood is coming to.
We're very quiet.
You'll hardly know we're here.
Hey, guys, which outfit do you dig for the suburban look? I thought you said you were four divorced men? Yeah.
This is my daughter from my first marriage.
Honey, say hello to Joe Skrylow.
What's happening? What do you say we hit the Iron Tomato for a little breakfast? My treat.
You're grounded, young lady, remember? Yes.
Stevi, why don't we talk about marrying into the family.
Why don't we skip the marriage and go straight to the honeymoon? Kids, they get wilder and wilder.
Yeah.
Sometimes it's hard to imagine they'll amount to anything.
Well, this has been a genuine pleasure.
We'll visit again soon.
Hey, wait a minute.
You guys were all in the military, right? I got something I want to show you.
You'll love it.
Come with me.
I think it's very important to get acquainted with new neighbors in a new neighborhood.
You got the guard, B.
A.
It's my pride and joy.
I plan to be ready for the Big One.
(Hannibal) You're a survivalist.
Yep.
I picked this puppy up at a swap meet, got her for a song.
A Snow Brat in L.
A now there's a bargain.
It's no longer a Snow Brat.
It's now an urban assault and escape vehicle.
Complete with life support systems and able to transverse any terrain.
Ideal for the nuclear winter.
Powdered ice cream.
Does it come in coffee almond fudge? No, just chocolate and vanilla.
I've one problem, though.
[dog barking.]
Can't seem to get the darn thing started.
[gun firing.]
[dog Whining.]
[gun firing.]
[barking.]
No, Misty, no.
[men chattering.]
Daddy.
You wanted a gun? You got a pistol.
[gun firing.]
(Taylor) Come on, let's move.
[gun firing.]
I've had enough of these guys.
I'm going down there to tell them they got to pack their bags.
[men chattering.]
[gun firing.]
[chattering.]
Hey, get your own gun.
It's my gun.
It's my gun.
Thank you, mister.
Anytime, sweetheart.
Thank you, mister.
We're your new neighbors from 18022, down the block.
We'd appreciate it if you'd show a little consideration for the rest of the folks in this neighborhood.
Who's your girlfriend? Step down here and say that, sucker.
Sorry, we're busy.
No.
Everybody back! B.
A.
The next time you lowlifes bother anybody in this neighborhood we'll be back here to do some real damage.
That was wonderful, just wonderful.
Now, that's the type of leadership we need in this neighborhood.
Thanks, it was a pleasure.
As a matter of fact you should be Block Captain.
Oh, no.
Pete, I've got nearly 14 months left before my term expires.
Yes, I think Joe here is doing a wonderful job.
A wonderful job.
Well, I think it's time for a change.
All those in favor? (all) Yeah.
Opposed? Nay, (both) Nay- Then I hereby declare Hannibal Smith.
Highfield Block Captain and head of the Neighborhood Patrol.
Congratulations.
[all applauding.]
Thanks.
[birds chirping.]
Mr.
Juarez what are you doing here? What the hell happened to you two? We got beat up by the Block Captain.
I put you in a nice quiet neighborhood for two days to wait for a shipment and you get taken out by some guy walking his dog? No, there was four guys.
What did they do? Stop on their way to their golf game? No, these guys, they weren't regular guys.
I don't wanna hear it.
All you had to do was sit tight till we get the shipment off the plane.
Was that too much to ask? We were stuck here and we couldn't make the pick-up Yeah, he's right.
until today.
You're lucky I'm letting you live to make the pick-up.
We're not gonna let some bowling team get in the way of two million in powder, huh? No, sir.
No.
[both laughing.]
Hey, is this stuff happening, or what? This stuff is junk.
Really, Hannibal, badges? Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.
We're supposed to be laying low.
Now we're the center of attention.
We can use this patrol.
While we are out doing our rounds we keep our eye out for anybody who's after Stevi.
Yeah, keeps the neighborhood free of terrorists.
Maybe catch a burglar.
I don't like it, Hannibal.
Is this another one of your piece of cake jobs that's supposed to go down 1, 2, 3? But remember, there's always 4, 5, and 6.
B.
A.
, you're just gonna have to relax and enjoy the suburban lifestyle.
It reminds me of my life before Woody discovered me.
How did you hook up with Stone, anyway? Well, I was singing at the Hot Potato in St.
Paul.
I was 17 and signed a deal with Mike Fontenetta, the bartender.
Everybody said I had a great voice.
Some people offered to take me on the road but Mikey wouldn't let me leave the Potato.
And then along came Woody Stone and offered to get you out of the contract with Fontenetta.
Right? Woody used to come in all the time.
He was looking for a career change, you know what I mean? So after he got you away from Fontenetta he signed you to a record deal and launched your career.
Yep, Woody did it all.
He's like a promotional genius.
I love the music business.
I'm starting to feel cooped up out here.
Face, what do you say, we hit the scene tonight? Stevi, you got to stay out of sight till after the concert.
Everybody knows you're a party animal and they're just waiting for you to hit the streets.
Now it's just about time for me to call your Mr.
Stone.
lam not a party animal.
I'm a party reptile.
And after that comes party criminal.
And finally, at three in the morning, zonked out on the couch (both) Party vegetable! Yes! [phone ringing.]
(Stone) Woody Stone.
Hannibal Smith.
Just want to let you know that we're okay.
Where are you? Our location isn't important.
I called to see if you had any more threats today.
No, not today.
Look, Stevi is very important to me.
I think I should know where she is.
Sorry, Mr.
Stone, that's not the way we operate.
I assure you she's safe and sound.
Hang on a second.
[lawn mower whirring.]
Here, say hello to Woody.
Not a word about our location.
Yo, Woody! [dog barking.]
[whirring.]
We'll talk to you a little later.
Doesn't anybody call before they go visiting in this neighborhood? These are the guys who gave you trouble? (Hannibal) Don't tell me, let me guess.
You're the guy from down the block who paid his rent six months in advance.
And these boys, your cub scout troops.
I come down here to tell you to stay away from me and my house.
I can't do that.
I'm the neighborhood Block Captain.
It's my job to see the neighborhood is safe.
And quiet.
Hey, that's Stevi Faith! I almost saw you at the Forum last year, but I couldn't get tickets.
Shut up.
I'm doing business here.
I can get pretty nasty.
You know, you haven't tried a burger till you've tried ours.
Now, what do you say, we go back to your house kick back, and talk this thing over? I'll bet you've got enough dope stashed in there to get the entire neighborhood stoned.
You don't know who you're dealing with, Jack.
I think I do.
You should think of relocating.
We don't like you.
And we don't want your pet squirrels cluttering up the neighborhood.
We're the Neighborhood Watch and we gonna be watching you move.
Yeah? Only one of us ends up owning this neighborhood, my friend.
It's not nice threatening your Block Captain.
[birds chirping.]
Murdock, you got four darts two with beepers, two with mikes.
Take your best shot.
You two will stay here and behave yourselves.
Hannibal.
I will.
I'm going to scout the best route to get Stevi to the concert.
B.
A.
, you and Murdock are gonna take care of our amigos, if they make a move.
Everything's gotta be an adventure, huh, Hannibal? Every road has its potholes.
And we gotta stop and fill them.
A hole is a hole.
Now we know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall (both) I'd love to Turn you on What's going on here? What happened? Did I miss something? Actually, It's all taken care of.
Taken care of? What do you mean taken care of? Those guys looked pretty peeved to me.
Are you sure you can handle the responsibilities of being Block Captain? Well, I'm catching on but it'll take me a while before I'm as good as you are.
And what's with that guy? What, you're going on patrol with a dart gun? Actually he's.
.
How about if I help him? You know, just take him around, show him the ropes.
What do you say? I'd appreciate it, neighbor.
You got a bike? Me, me (woman) Promoters have announced that tomorrow night's Stevi Faith concert is now a complete sellout.
See? See, that's the same chick.
She looks smaller on TV.
[Taylor laughing.]
Hey, come on, I was watching that.
It's time to make the move.
You call when you've got the goods.
Si, senor.
[dog barking.]
All right.
These are the Smitkowskis.
(Joe) Two adults, three children, one canine.
[dog barking.]
Two adults, three children, and one canine.
Charlie Petroski.
He's got a parakeet.
Usually quiet.
He's away in Palm Springs.
One of those.
I don't know these guys, they're new.
[car engine revving.]
Oh, yeah? He made a direct hit.
[beeping.]
It was the beeper dart.
I'll see you later.
Looks like they're taking a left about a mile up the road.
They're headed for the airport.
All right, you know what to do, big guy.
[tires screeching.]
What we need is a little distraction.
You got an atomic bomb? I can't believe you never heard of Stevi Faith.
What, Colombia, right? Si.
Man, they've got to have her records down there.
I mean, I can't believe you've never heard Born to boogie from the Ten Cent Virgin album? No? Now, what do you suppose is so special about these rotten crates and these lousy bales here? What do you know? Snow in the summertime.
Hold it on them, B.
A.
Got a regular department store here.
Let's tie 'em up, B.
A.
Another day another doper.
See, nothing to it.
Now all we got to do is just sit on Stevi till tomorrow night.
Don't say that, fool.
You're gonna jinx us.
B.
A.
, B.
A.
, it is just like Stevi said: sometimes your karma is just moving in the right direction.
Anyway, ain't no way anybody's gonna be able to locate her.
Four horses are run-- There really is no way to know-- Rock star states her plans-- Clear and cloudy and 82-- how this trade is going to affect the team's chances in its division-- Vandalism has become the number 1 problem-- 4130 don't get nothing but news.
As if I'm not depressed enough.
(announcer) Have you seen this young lady? Wait a minute.
I know that broad.
She's sold more records this past year than any singer in the country.
From where? I don't know.
That face belongs to Stevi Faith.
Queen of Rock and Roll who's reportedly been kidnapped by the fugitive A-Team.
Those are the guys next door! A $10,000 reward has been offered for any information leading to the safe return of the young singer Babe, give me the phone.
There's a standing reward for the capture of the A-Team dating back some 10 years.
In other news [phone ringing.]
(woman) Woody Stone Productions.
Hello? Yeah, I'm calling about this thing on TV.
The-- Please hold.
I'll hold.
Four divorced men sharing expenses.
This is Woody Stone.
(Joe) Yeah.
Joe Skrylow, 18026 Highfield.
I thought maybe you'd like to know that your lady singer is holed up next door to me, here.
Next door to you? Yeah.
In Canoga Park.
You're sure it's them? Absolutely, positively.
I talked to the four clowns last night.
Bunch of wimps, if you ask me.
Listen, Joe, let's keep this between me and you.
Let's keep the cops and the reporters out of it.
Why'? Because I just want to get Stevi back unharmed.
She's very important to me.
C'mon, you know with SWAT teams and military fugitives [laughing.]
Yeah.
Right.
Okay, how about this? How about if I hold them until you get here? You bring the reward money with you.
And cash.
No checks.
Sure, Joe.
I think we speak the same language.
Pack the Hawaiian shirts.
That reward money is as good as ours.
All my life I wanted people to recognize me.
[birds chirping.]
To think I was somebody special.
And now that they do I just want to be invisible again.
Ah, yes, the price of fame you lose your anonymity.
Fame.
What a concept.
I don't know whether it's me they think is special or I'm special because I'm Stevi Faith.
I think you're special either way.
[dog barking.]
I kind of like you.
Even with this haircut? Even with the haircut.
It's just that sometimes I wish I could settle down, you know.
Go back to being Stephanie Frankel.
The girl Woody discovered in Minnesota? Yeah.
Ever heard of a rock star named Frankel? You could have been the first.
Woody decided I was Stevi Faith.
She's not really a person, though, she's an image.
A corporation with a bunch of lawyers and accountants agents and managers.
They make you feel like if you stop singing you'll put half of Hollywood on the unemployment line.
That's exactly it.
Well, around here, you can be whoever you want.
Including plain old Stephanie Frankel.
(Joe on megaphone) Attention, A-Team.
Surrender immediately.
Release Stevi Faith and come out with your hands up! Come on out, and give up the girl! Hey, Joe, what's going on? This isn't very neighborly.
Ah, cut the con job.
I know all about you guys.
Now surrender immediately.
[sighing.]
What are you gonna do? Well, we can't start volleying with this joker.
He'll shoot up the whole neighborhood.
Okay, Joe, okay, you win.
We're coming right out.
What the heck are you doing, Joe? Great.
Armed and dangerous fugitives and you make them Block Captains.
Look, I'm-- Wait'll we need a Mayor.
Then we'll call San Quentin and see who's available.
I'm a pretty good judge of character, Joe and I think you're all wet about these fellows.
Hey, Joe, you're making a terrible scene here.
What do you say, we talk this out, huh? Not another move, pal.
Oh, please, don't hurt him, he's my friend! Look, they brainwashed her.
Just like that Patty Hearst kid.
Joe, come on, put down the gun.
Hey, did you bring my reward? Move! Inside! (Joe) Freeze.
All right.
Bye.
Oh, Woody, thank goodness you're here.
We cannot find the tape, Stone.
I guess we'll just have to sit and wait for your friends to come back.
[birds chirping.]
We got trouble, guys.
Stone's behind the whole thing.
He's holding Stevi and Face.
And he's got those two gorillas that attacked the sound studio to back him up.
Uh, look, Stone what do you say we talk about this over breakfast? Pass.
Woody, this is a really evil thing you're doing.
There's a karma shift here that could spell your cosmic doom.
Yeah.
She's got a point.
Where are the tapes, pal? Uh, what happened to the accent? Oh, let me guess the whole Trianna thing is just a ruse, right? To draw suspicion away from you.
Very good.
Go to the head of your class.
Boy, whatever you want, you just take like, Stevi's contract with the Hot Potato.
Yeah, poor Mike Fontenetta.
Tending bar from a wheelchair.
But that's history.
Woody, how could you? What did you think, I was gonna stand by while you gave millions to some people in Trianna? I'm really disappointed in you, Woody.
I guess I really never knew you.
I just can't understand all these bad vibes.
You know, it's like when you're a kid and you go to the beach and you make this huge sandcastle.
It turns out to be perfect.
Well, then it's time to go home.
So you step all over it so no other kid can play with it.
I made it.
It was mine to destroy.
I'm gonna do the same thing to you, Stevi Faith.
Have you ever considered psychiatric help? Okay, guys, quietly.
[dog barking.]
Let's hope it snows.
I told you before, Hannibal has the tape.
Why doesn't anyone believe me? He should've been back by now.
Oh, he's at the other house.
The one at the end of the block.
What are you talking about? Well, we rented two houses, you know I mean, just in case of attack.
Double security.
See, that way we have both ends of the cul-de-sac-- Smart.
Very smart.
Clever little group.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Wait a second, that means he knows we're here.
Okay, pretty boy what's the password? Password? We don't have a password.
What's the password? Just knock on the door, and say "It's the new Block Captain.
" "It's the new Block Captain.
" Yeah.
You got it.
What? Dixon, Minolo the boys are all busted and then we lost the whole load.
Who did this? The Block Captain! Get the artillery.
[knock on door.]
Who is it? It's the new Block Captain.
[gun firing.]
[gun firing.]
How you doing, Face? Terrific.
[guns firing.]
Well, I guess you've fallen off the charts.
That makes us number one.
With a bullet.
(Joe) Hey' guys guess we took care of them.
Tell you what, Joe.
We'll give you credit for all the arrests.
That should guarantee you being Block Captain for the rest of your life.
Yeah? Well, I deserve it.
[metallic squeaking.]
So much for your dream house.
Well, maybe we could sell it as a fixer-upper.
[sighing.]
Look, guys, I've been totaling the bills here and well, looks like we won't make money on this property.
But with Stone's original fee and the reward money on Juarez we could break even.
I thought we'd donate the fee to the Relief Fund.
To the Relief Fund.

[dog barking.]
You're such a nice guy.
Thanks.
Yo, A-Team.

Yeah, it worked pretty well, Joe.
It's the way I designed it.
Hey,Joe, there's a few modifications you should know about.
Whoa let's not try and take the glory here, my friend.
I know every inch of that baby.

Hey, Mr.
Block Captain.
How about getting this monster out of the street, huh? It's scaring my kid.

Hey, Joe, you don't need our help.
You and that machine are one.
We don't want to miss the curtain.
Guys.
Thanks again, Joe, for bailing us out.
Right.
Fellows how am I supposed to get this thing back in the garage?
