Stop backseat driving and

I am!

[g*nf*re]

- [CLICKING]
- Fixed!

[g*nf*re CONTINUES]

Jell-O, Lawman! [LAUGHS]

Why do you always say
"Jell-O" like that?

- It means "good-bye."
- What? No, it doesn't.

- It's a dessert, you moron.
- No, it's insider slang.

A dude said it after dinner before he...

- Oh, God damn it!

Aw, I always knew you
two would work things out,

done with the car.

Hey, thanks, man.

Love what you've done
with your, uh, fire hair.

Looks really good.

Aw, I'm just trying something new.

Hey, I heard you got a beef with Stone.

[LAUGHS] Beef? I got
a whole butcher shop.

Stone is mine. Ta!

Bye!

- Screw you, man!

It's... I wanna say, uh, Blue?

No, it begins with "S."

Now's your chance to skedaddle.

We can't leave you to fight this.

The f*ck you can't.

I'm tired of y'all.
You're bogarting my kills.

[TRUCK HORN HONKING]

[AMBER] Juggernaut to
Twister, we're flying in.

[WATTS] Amber, you keep

These chickens are flying the coop.

[QUIET] Thanks a lot.

God, I'm so tired of running

- Now!
- Now!

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

John?

John! John!

- [SCREAMS]
- Get outta there!

Well, oh, well.

It's just you and me again.

You know, when I was
walking a b*at in Topeka,

I used to see pieces
of trash just like you.

They'd mock me, call
me names, spit on me,

just because I was tryin'
to keep the streets safe.

When the power grid blew,

all of those same
fuckheads came to my door

wanting to be protected,

wanting to be safe,

but you know what they really wanted?

They just wanted to be kept in line.

[LAUGHING]

What's so f*ckin' funny?

You talk so much.

All this talk about rules and laws,

it's all bullshit.

You're just a sad, lonely man,

and you think you're in control.

I am in control.

No.

You're just the one holdin' the g*n.

Any last words?

- Knock, knock.
- Who's there?

[SCREAMING]

[WHIMPERING]

[g*n COCKS]

[GURGLING]

[RAGGED BREATHING]

I'm gonna give you a tough choice.

You can die slowly, or...

[WHISPERS] You can die fast.

You have a good day now,

m*therf*cker.

Oh! Oh! Oh!

[LAUGHING]

Oh, I f*cking thought I lost you again.

Oh, where's...

[SNIFFLES]

I'm sorry.

Those f*ckers are gonna pay.

[ENGINE REVVING]

Hey, Bill, I'm back! You miss me?

Bill got promoted.

You do not have clearance to approach.

Look, I know you're just
trying to do your job,

but I have a life-changing opportunity

that's going to expire

if I don't deliver this package
in one minute and , , ...

You see where I'm going with this?

- Yeah, that's not my problem.
- Uh, it will be

if Raven hears her delivery
expired right outside her gate.

Holy sh*t.

Tell Raven the Milkman made it.

Let's go.

Open the gate!

You didn't tell me she was so hot.

Someone's had a busy ten days.

And I'm not the only one.

Hey, congratulations
on the promotion, Bill!

She treatin' you well?
Good pay? Good benefits?

Just give her the package, John.

Wow. f*ck you, Bill.

How do we know she's
actually going to pay up?

This is how Milkman deliveries work.

Only person who's making
it weird right now is you.

Congratulations, John.

Welcome to New San Francisco.

[g*n COCKING]

Hey, hey, whoa! Hold on, man.

Bill, calm down. She's with me.

John, she's not allowed to enter.

Well, you wouldn't have
it if it wasn't for her.

We had a deal, John,

you and me.

And she's with me. That's
all you need to know.

[g*ns COCKING]

If she can't go in, fine.
I'm not goin' in either.

John, don't do this.

You wanted this your whole life, right?

- Yeah, but...
- Then you need to go.

What are you doin'?

I'm not gonna be the
reason you don't go inside,

so you're gonna go in,
and you're gonna be happy.

- You got it?
- [g*n COCKING]

Don't, John.

I mean it.

- Quiet...
- [g*nsh*t]

Aah!

He needs medical
attention. Get him inside.

Go on.

[GRUNTING]

What? Quiet, no! Quiet!

Quiet!

Jell-O, John.

[DOOR SLAMS]

[SNIFFLING]

Stop, now!

Here. John usually makes this run,

but since he's retired...

What the hell am I
supposed to do with this?

Deliver it. We need a new Milkman.

- Hey! Hey! Hey!
- [CHEERING]

That was for San Diego.

f*ck San Diego.

[CAR DOOR SLAMS]

The Milkman has stabilized.

Doc said he'll be fine, but the girl...

Couldn't you have let her in?

She complicates things.

[LAUGHING] Imagine
what John went through,

driving halfway across the country,

all to deliver...

this.

Yeah.

What do you think?

It's fine. I ordered pistachio.

Of course, they f*cked up my order.

- I meant about John.
- Oh.

He passed his test,

and Calypso kept his end of the bargain.

Mostly. [GAGS]

Marshmallow. Blech.

So it's time that we start
prepping him for his new position?

Not yet, let him acclimate,

get a feel for the good life inside.

Then we'll talk about what comes next.

But Chester told me
you're a guard with him.

You don't remember me?

You do not have clearance to approach.

Oh, sh*t! Bill's replacement!

- Mm-hmm.
- I didn't even recognize you.

Well, must be the hair.

I didn't even see past the g*n.

Let me get you a drink.

Do you like wine?

Uh, toilet or sink?

How about red?

[STUTTERING] Yeah?

- Okay.
- Okay.

[KNOCKING]

Oh, that's the pizza.

Would you mind grabbing that?

Sure.

Hey, got a cheese pizza for you.

Wow.

I've never been on the
other side of a delivery.

I'm supposed to give
you something, right?

Here you go.

b*ll*ts.

Would you prefer gasoline?

There is cash right there, dude.

I hope that makes a warm fire for you.

And hey, thanks.

I really appreciate what you
went through to get this here.

It's not a big deal, man.

So this is pizza.

You've never had pizza?

Oh, my gosh, you've never had pizza?!

No way that's her real name.

You do know her real name, don't you?

- Also, didn't she sh**t you?
- Yeah, that happened.

John, that doesn't sound healthy.

Okay, look, if that's
really how you feel,

I will escort you to the gate myself.

We just have to make
one quick stop first.

Come on.

[SCOFFS]

What the f*ck is wrong with you now?

It finally happened.

I'm talking to a car.

I know something didn't die in you.

Last time that happened,

you smelled like burnt baby raccoon.

Thank you, by the way.
That was delicious.

Maybe something shifted

when I slammed into that
Milkman the other week?

Oh, my God, now I'm f*cking
asking the car a God damn question.

That's great. That's really great.

That's super healthy.

[SCREAMS]

Why won't you work, you
rusted piece of sh*t?

[SIGHS]

I'm very sorry.

Um, that was very rude.

You did not deserve that.

It's not your fault that you're rusted.

It's just, we've been together a month,

and I have no clue how you work.

Oil goes in your mouth,
and fuel goes up your butt.

Everything in the middle makes no sense.

[SIGHS]

I guess I just keep trying
pieces until I find one that...

You just try different pieces
'til you find the one that fits.

Fits.

You better not be f*ckin' with me.

[ENGINE TURNS OVER]

Aah! Holy sh*t! I did it!

I f*cking did it!

What the f*ck did I do?

Where are you taking me?

- Here.
- Nice house.

I'm glad you think so. It's yours.

[CHUCKLES]

You think a residential
upgrade is gonna keep me here?

- Pass.
- No, John.

This is yours.

This is where you grew up.

Wait.

I lived here?

You've got mail.

When I first heard of
John Doe the Milkman,

I did a little digging,

and when I learned
that you had roots here,

I dug some more.

[SIGHS] This isn't normally
how I like to do things,

but, hey, I'm flexible.

I have a job for you.

I'm not gonna be your Milkman.

Milkman?

[LAUGHING]

No, those days for you are long gone,

but you're still a driver.

Best I've ever seen.

You proved that to me when
you made my little run.

See, you passed the test, John,

and now I need your skills.

There's gonna be a tournament,

the first of its kind

where the best drivers
from all across the country,

from all walks of life, are
gonna be invited to compete.

See, the tournament only has one rule:

Survive.

And you better believe who
you face won't play fair.

This is where you come in, John.

You are my horse, and I need you to win,

because Calypso is
offering quite a prize.

The winner gets their heart's desire,

their greatest wish come true.

You're gonna help me win, John,

and you're gonna do it by
getting behind the wheel
