- This here's the gas. You push her...
- Down.

:44:06
- You had lessons before.
- No, I just saw you do it.

:44:10
ROY: You're a smart old buzzard.
ADAM: Thank you very much.

:44:13
- Keep your eyes open, don't you?
- Try to.

:44:16
Now, this here is the crank.
:44:18
See this wire sticking out of the radiator?
That's the choke.

:44:21
Now watch careful.
Grab hold of the crank like this.

:44:24
Push in till she catches.
:44:26
See how my thumb is turned down?
:44:27
I noticed that. Why do you do that?
:44:29
If you put her around this way
with my thumb around her...

:44:32
she'd probably knock
my blasted thumb off.

:44:34
Dear, dear. First you lose your blasted arm
and then you lose your blasted thumb.

:44:38
ADAM: That's wrong way around.
ROY: How's that?

:44:40
He made a joke.
I never did see him so happy.

:44:44
You pull out this choke
turn her around to suck gas in.

:44:48
Then you give her a hard spin.
:44:50
ROY: She caught, first time!
ADAM: Caught on what?

:44:54
ROY: Advance the spark and retard the gas.
:44:56
Reach over real quick and switch
to mag. That's magneto.

:44:59
So, there you are.
:45:01
Isn't that wonderful?
:45:03
Of course, it isn't exactly
going anywhere, is it?

:45:06
That's the easy part.
:45:07
- Adam.
- I want you all to repeat after me.

:45:09
Spark up, gas down.
:45:12
Switch to bat.
:45:13
Crank to compression, thumb down.
:45:16
You get that? Let's have it again.
:45:18
Spark up, gas down.
:45:20
- What's the matter?
- Big snow slide.

:45:23
Closed the pass and stopped the cars
about 100 miles out.

:45:26
Can see water running out of the cars.
:45:30
[Tense instrumental music]
:45:41
It's still a good idea.
Cold can preserve things.

:45:44
Someday, somebody'll prove it.
:45:48
CAL: It was your idea.
ADAM: No!

:45:51
It was presumptuous of me
to think it would be I.

:45:55
Guess we bit off more lettuce
than we could chew.
