[ up-tempo music playing ]
[ horns honking ]
YUNG HEE: I can't believe
we're picking up someone from
the airport.
MARQUEE: I have to agree.
there is nothing mysterious
about an airport run.
MIKE: Open your mind,
Marquess.
Is the person who needs a ride
visiting or do they live here?
Mystery.
How was their flight? Mystery.
Do they just have a carry-on or
did they check in their luggage?
All mysteries.
So let's go solve it.
PIGEON: I think this is our
guy.
Pull over.
MIKE: Where?
PIGEON: Right there.
The old guy waving directly at
us.
MIKE: Nobody will let me in.
YUNG HEE: This woman's trying
to let you in.
Go!
[ horn honks ]
MIKE: It's not safe.
YUNG HEE: You drive so
scared, you make it not safe.
MIKE: I drive defensively
because i've been in a lot of
fender benders, okay?
ALL: Go!
MIKE: Jesus christ!
You guys shouldn't be yelling at
me.
It discombobulates me!
Gol-ly!
What the hell?
YUNG HEE: No one's yelling at
you.
You just have to go.
Took you long enough.
You think i'd summoned you by
carrier pigeon.
YUNG HEE: You did.
Well, by all means, use a
cellphone then, if you want the
NSA listening to your private
conversations.
PIGEON: Hey, your jacket says
“Buzz Aldrin."
You're not the astronaut
Buzz Aldrin, are you?
No, I'm the jazz singer
Buzz Aldrin.
Of course I'm the astronaut.
You think they give these NASA
jackets to anybody?
MIKE: Where are we going?
Caesars Palace.
MIKE: where are we going?
I'm seeing that Elton John show
tonight.
I'm supposed to join him onstage
for a duet of "Rocket Man."
That's a hell of a song, but if
he tries anything on me, I will
knock him out.
MARQUEE: Yeah, I doubt
you're his type.
Crimine, it's hot in here.
We need some A.C.
ALL: No!
MIKE: No, please don't do
that.
What the hell?
[ clicking ]
Damn it!
MIKE: Oh, I'm sorry, man.
When you turn on the A.C., the
heat comes on full blast.
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
I'm trying to get it fixed.
Why won't it turn off?
MIKE: That's why we call it
the Mystery Mobile.
Damn it!
[ rattling, heater shuts off ]
MIKE: Wow. whenever I did
that, the engine would fall out,
but the heat would keep blowing.
YUNG HEE: Dad, shouldn't you
be watching the road?
Yeah, that was the secret to
keeping the oxygen going on that
old piece of crap Apollo 11,
too.
MIKE: Do you know any other
secrets?
YUNG HEE: Dad.
MIKE: Like daylight savings
time.
It happened, but this clock
never knew it, you know?
Secrets?
[ chuckles ]
I happen to know the biggest
secret on Earth.
Or maybe the universe.
YUNG HEE: Can you stop
talking to my dad right now?
And it involves you.
YUNG HEE: Dad, the road.
[ all screaming ]
MIKE: Oh, man!
Another fender bender? Man!
Is everybody okay back there?
YUNG HEE: [ groans ]
MARQUEE: Oh, myoh, yes.
PIGEON: Oh, it looks like our
astronaut took flight.
MIKE: Oh, sh
[ glass shatters ]
Wake up.
PIGEON: Well, he can't
because he's dead.
YUNG HEE: Oh, my god.
PIGEON: You know, at least he
beat Neil Armstrong to
something.
[ dialing ]
YUNG HEE: Neil Armstrong
already died.
PIGEON: Really?
When did that happen?
YUNG HEE: A few years ago.
PIGEON: Huh.
Always a bridesmaid.
MIKE: Yes, that is correct.
No injuries.
Well, one death.
Mr. Tyson, can you tell me
anything about the victim?
MIKE: Yes, he was an
astronaut.
Oh, and right before he died, he
was about to tell me the biggest
secret in the universe.
[ siren wails ]
May I put you on hold while I
enter this?
It may take a moment.
We have multiple ongoing
investigations concerning other
collisions you've been involved
in, curiously also involving
fatalities to astronauts, so i
just want to make sure we file
these claims correctly.
if we get disconnected, my name
is Julius and my direct dial is
MIKE: Okay.
Thank you, Julius.
[ muzak playing ]
Mr. Tyson, although this is
just your fourth collision this
year, because the number of
fatalities is 10, that may
affect your premium.
And they're all astronauts.
MIKE: [ gasps ]
Although, I don't think that
will affect your premium.
[ siren wails ]
MIKE: How many astronauts
have I killed?
Please do not admit liability
until your claims are settled.
MIKE: Okay, how many
astronauts have been killed?
Uh10 astronauts.
Is there anything else I can do
for you today?
MIKE: No, thank you, ma'am.
Would you be willing to take
a short customer-service survey
about your experience today?
MIKE: How long would it take?
About 15 minutes.
MIKE: Sure.
Thank you for taking this
brief survey.
Was your claim representative
courteous?
[ horns honking ]
You can say "surpassed my
expectations," "met my
expectations"
[ drill whirring ]
MARQUESS: Michael, try to calm
down.
Just breathe, okay?
Let's be rational.
MIKE: I have killed 10
astronaut, Marquess.
[ sniffles ]
Okay. Think rationally.
MARQUEE: Good.
MIKE: Do I have anything
against astronauts?
No way.
Because when I became
heavyweight champion of the
world, it was my dream that an
astronaut might take me to other
worlds
MARQUESS: Mm-hmm.
MIKE: for me to be
heavyweight champion of those
worlds, too.
MARQUEE: Okay.
MIKE: I love astronauts.
MARQUEE: Uh, okay.
MIKE: So why am I killing
astronauts?
MARQUEE: Work through it.
MIKE: Think rationally.
MARQUEE: Okay, good.
MIKE: I used to be filled
with so much rage, I wanted to
kill everyone.
But I replaced that rage with
love.
But now it's coming back and
It's focused on astronauts!
MARQUEE: Rage down.
MIKE: I know what's
happening.
The government has implanted a
chip in me.
MARQUEE: Nope, the
government didn't do that.
MIKE: And that chip is making
me kill astronauts!
MARQUEE: Nope, I guarantee
there's no chip in you.
MIKE: But why?
Think rationally, Michael!
MARQUEE: Stop saying
"rationally," 'cause you don't
know what it means
MIKE: Astronauts must have
seen something up there in space
that they weren't supposed to
see.
I am in a race against time to
find out the biggest secret in
the universe before I kill any
more astronauts.
Listen up.
While the rest of us find a
rocket and go in space to solve
The mystery, one of you is gonna
have to stay here with the
mystery mobile.
PIGEON: Me!
YUNG HEE: I will!
PIGEON: I was first.
MIKE: it's true.
MARQUEE: Wait.
Did he say, “Find a rocket and
go up in space?"
What?! Did we miss that?
MIKE: See if you can get him
to fix the A.C., okay?
[ door closes ]
PIGEON: Hmm.
Black guy, a gay guy, and a
Chinese girl get into a cab.
[ chuckles ]
It's like the start of a joke.
Black guy says he forgot his
wallet.
Gay guy says he didn't bring his
wallet 'cause he assumed the
black guy was paying because he
thought they were on a date.
Chinese girl just keeps saying
“Me so horny."
[ chuckles ]
"me so horny."
[ chuckles ]
no.
[ chuckles ]
no.
no, it needs a rabbi.
