Lightning McQueen
[desperately trying to convince the rest of the gang that Doc was the Fabulous Hudson Hornet]
Did you know Doc was a famous race car?
Sheriff
[Everybody doesn't believe him and start snickering.]
Doc? Our Doc?
Sarge
Not Doc Hudson.
Lightning McQueen
No no no no it's true! He's a real racing legend. He's the Fabulous Hudson Hornet!
Flo
Fabulous? I've never seen Doc drive more than 20 miles an hour. I mean have you ever seen him race?
Lightning McQueen
No, but I wish I could. They say that he was amazing. He won three Piston Cups!
Tow Mater
[spits out oil that he's drinking]
He did what in his cup?
Tow Mater
[The folks of Radiator Springs are sad that Lightning McQueen left without saying goodbye after fixing the main road.]
He must've finished it while we was asleep.
Doc Hudson
[coldly]
Good riddance. [drives off]
Flo
He's...gone?
Sarge
Well, we wouldn't want him to miss that race of his, would we?
Ramone
[Sally drives off sadly.] [hears the Sheriff sniffling]
Oh dude, are you crying?
Sheriff
[angrily]
No, I'm HAPPY! I don't have to watch him every second of the day anymore! I'm glad he's gone!
R Red
[speeds away crying, upset at Lightning's apparent departure]
Lightning McQueen
[appearing out of the blue]
What's wrong with Red?
Tow Mater
[completely oblivious to Lightning's presence, while everyone gasps]
Oh, he's just sad 'cause you left town and gone off to that big race to win your Piston Cup that you always dreamed of an' get that big fancy sponsorship you was talkin' about. [long pause] Wait a minute! I knew you wouldn't leave without sayin' goodbye! [Everyone laughs]
Mater
[The folks of Radiator Springs (except Doc) are sad that Lightning McQueen left without saying goodbye after fixing the main road.]
He's done? He must've finished it while we were all sleepin'.
Doc Hudson
Good riddance. [turns around and drives off]
Flo
He's gone?
Sarge
Well, we wouldn't want him to miss that race of his. [Sally drives off sadly.]
Ramone
[hears Sheriff sniffling]
Oh, dude, are you crying?
Sheriff
[feigning anger in denial]
No, I'm happy! I don't have to watch him every second of the day anymore! I'm glad he's gone! [Red speeds away sobbing, upset at the Sheriff's remarks and knocks down a stack of tires like last time.]
Lightning McQueen
[appearing out of nowhere]
What's wrong with Red?
Mater
[completely oblivious to Lightning's presence, while everyone gasps]
Oh, he's just sad 'cause you left town and went to your big race to win the Piston Cup that you always dreamed about your whole life, and get that big ol' sponsor, and that fancy helicopter you was talkin' about. [gasps] Wait a minute! [everyone (except Sheriff) laughs] I knowed you wouldn't leave without saying goodbye!
Sheriff
What're you doin' here, son? You're gonna miss your race! Don't worry- I'll give you a police escort and we'll make up the time.
Lightning McQueen
Thanks, Sheriff, but I don't think I'm ready to leave just yet.
Sheriff
Well- why not?
Lightning McQueen
I'm not sure if these- tires- can get me all the way to California.
