A scene from Rat Race 2001
Donald Sinclair

[after explaining the game]

The first one there, keeps it all! Oh, by the way, I put little tracking devices on your key rings so I'll always know where you are and...that's it! Go.

Owen

Y-You can't just pick people at random!

Donald Sinclair

I can do anything I like, Owen! I'm eccentric! [Growls] Go!

Randy Pear

Wait. So, it's like a race? [Sinclair points to him with an "Ah-ha!" expression]

Enrico Pollini

A race! It's a race! I hope I win!

Duane Cody

Uh, what are the rules?

Donald Sinclair

There's only one rule. Are you ready? Here it is: There are, no rules! Go! [Nobody moves] Go!!

Merrill

So, when you say "go", you mean, just go?

Donald Sinclair

Uh, begin, commence, start moving, [looks at his watch] theoretically you have been racing for about forty-five seconds now, and so far Mr. Schaffer is winning because he's nearest to the door.
[Everyone continues staring at Sinclair, visibly confused. Finally, he sighs in frustration, pulls out a revolver, and fires it into the ceiling.]
