A scene from Cars 2 2011
Finn McMissile

[to Holly Shiftwell; ?]

Have you lost your mind?!

Holly Shiftwell

But I Thought—

Finn McMissile

Mater, This Chap Needs A Tow. Hook Him Up.

Mater

Well Sure Thing.

Tomber

You Rusty Piece Of Junk, Get Your Dirty Hook Off Me!

Finn McMissile

[Speaks In French To A Car In The Garage]

Allez, Maintenant - Vite!
[The Car In The Garage Fless As Holley, Mater, & Tomber Enter, Who Angrily Talks In French As Finn Closes The Garage Door So To Keep Anyone From Coming In] .

Tomber

[Gets Released By Mater]

Electroshock! Are You Kidding Me?!

Finn McMissile

Easy Tomber. This is her field assignment; she didn't know you were my informant.

Holley Shiftwell

Informant?

Tomber

A rookie? Huh, I Never Liked New Car Smell.

Holley Shiftwell

[Grumbles]

.

Finn McMissile

Tomber Was Doing 20-To-Life In A Moroccan Impound The First Time I saved him, if I Recall Correctly.

Tomber

Speaking Of Recalls, you're getting up there in mileage, aren't you, Finn?

Holley Shiftwell

All Right We Get It, You Both Know Each Other You're Both Old, So Here You Go Informant: Inform Us.

Tomber

Beuck, that is the worst motor ever made. [Gasps] Wait, That Oil Filter, Those Wheel Bearings.

Finn McMissile

Do Those Parts Look Familiar, Tomber?

Tomber

They Should. I Sold Them.

Holley Shiftwell

To Whom?

Tomber

No Idea, He's My Best Customer, But He Always Does His Business Over The Phone, I Was Always Wondering Why He Needs So Many Parts, Now I Know.

Mater

Well, a lemon needs parts. Ain't Nothing Truer Than That.

Mater

Yeah You Know, Cars That Don't Ever Work Right, Lemons Is A Tow Truck's Bread And Butter Like 'Em Gremlins & Pacers We Run Into At The Party & The Race & The Airport.

Finn McMissile

Holley, Pull Up The Pictures From The Oil Platform; I Want To Know What Other Type Of Cars Were Out There.

Holley Shiftwell

Right Let's See Um, There Were Hugos & Trunkovs.

Finn McMissile

Mater, Are These Cars Considered Lemons?

Mater

Is The Popmobile Catholic?

Holley Shiftwell

Finn, Everyone Involved In This Plot Is One Of History's Biggest Loser Cars.

Finn McMissile

And They're All Taking Their Orders From The Car Behind This Engine.

Tomber

Ah, This Explains It!

Finn McMissile

What Tomber?

Tomber

Gremlin, Pacer, Hugo, & Trunkov Never Get Together, But They Are Having A Secret Meeting In Two Days.

Finn McMissile

Where's This Meeting Taking Place?

Tomber

Porto Corsa, Italy.

Mater

That's Where The Next Race Is!

Finn McMissile

Then There's A Good Chance Our Mystery Engine Will Be There Too.

Tomber

Your Chances Are More Than Good; I Just Sent Him A New Clutch Assembly Yesterday To Porto Corsa.

Finn McMissile

Holley, Contact Stephenson And Have Him Meet Us At Gare De Lyon. Good Work. [Mater & Tomber Smiled And Nodded At Each Other Respectfully, They're On A Electric Bullet Train Named Stevenson Who Sped Through A Snowly Countryside Into A Tunnel And Watch Footage Of Each Lemon With Black Bodyguards Of Their Basis Who Hold Up Other Cars So They Can Past At The Traffic Lights].

Mater

Boy I'll Tell You What That Three-Wheeled Feller Had To Be Right About A Big Meeting, You Never See This Many Lemons In One Town; 'Less There's A Swap Meet Or Something. [To Holley] Hey, How'd You Get All Them Pictures?

Holley Shiftwell

Well I Remotely Reprogrammed Porto Corsa's Red Light Cameras To Do Recognition Scans.

Mater

Wow, not only are you the prettiest car I Ever Met, but you're the smartest too.

Holley Shiftwell

Thank You I Think.

Mater

[Noticing A Blue Tow Truck Towing A Yellow Hugo In The Hugo Group]

That's A Familiar Sight A Hugo Being Towed, But He Looks Absolutely Perfect!

Finn McMissile

Of Course, They Must Be The Heads Of The Lemon Families.

Mater

Makes Sense If I Was Rich And Broke Down Every Day, I'd Hire Me To Tow Me Around All The Time Too!

Finn McMissile

We've Got To Infiltrate That Meeting; It's The Only Way To Find Out Who's Behind All This.

Holley Shiftwell

Hang On Minute.

Mater

What?

Holley Shiftwell

[Takes A Picture Of Mater]

Hold Still.

Mater

[Affected By The Flash Of The Camera]

Ow! [Holley Connects Her Telescoping Utility Arm Into The Monitor And Moves The Image Of Mater's Front Over The Blue Tow Truck As Well As Making It Turn To Blue, Showing That They Look Similar].

Finn McMissile

Ah-Ah, Good Job Miss Shiftwell.

Holley Shiftwell

Thank You Finn.

Mater

Boy, I Sure Wish My Friends Could See Me Now.

Mama Topolino

[At Luigi & Guido's village in Italy, Uncle Topolino talks to Lightning about his recent tiff with Mater] [Speaks In Italian]

Uncle Topoline

She Said You Look Like You Are Starving That She's Gonna Make You A Big Meal And Fatten You Up.

Lightning McQueen

Oh No, Mama Topolino, please, You Don't Have To Make A Fuss.

Uncle Topolino

Capisco, I Understand. Is A Problem Yes Between You & A Friend?

Lightning McQueen

How Did You Know That?

Uncle Topolino

A Wise Car Hears One Word And Understands Two That And Luigi Told Me. [McQueen Gives A Smug Look] While Mama Cooks, Come And Take A Stroll With Me.

Lightning McQueen

I Brought My Friend Mater Along On The Trip, And I Told Him He Needed To Act Different Than We Weren't In Radiator Springs.

Uncle Topolino

This Mater Is A Close Friend?

Lightning McQueen

He's My Best Friend.

Uncle Topolino

Then Why Would You Ask Him To Be Someone Else?

Lightning McQueen

[Thinking For A Moment]

What Did I Do? I Said Some Things During Our Fight.

Uncle Topolino

You know, back when Guido and Luigi used to work for me, they would fight over everything. They fight over what Ferrari was the best Ferrari, which one of them looked more like a Ferrari. There were even some non-Ferrari fights. So, tell me them, va bene! It's okay to fight. Everybody fights now and then, especially best friends. But you gotta make up fast. No fight more important than friendship. Chi trova un'amico, trova un tesoro.

Lightning McQueen

What does that mean?

Mama Topolino

Whoever finds a friend, finds a treasure. Now mangia, eat!
