( tires squealing )

( groans )

Hey, are you alright?

I'm sorry.

My bike-- it ran out of gas.

It won't take me where I have to go.

But your car will.

This was all an act to steal my car?

Just stay where you are.

I really don't like doing this, I'm sorry

but I have a very good reason.

You're won't leave me here in the middle of nowhere, are you?

Just wait on the road. You're a beautiful girl.

Somebody's gonna come by and pick you up.

Thanks a lot.

( sirens approaching )

Hi, Sheriff.

What happened to him?

He hit his head-- knocked himself out.

Mm-hmm.

This your car?

Yes, sir.

Did you know he was packing this?

It looked a lot bigger

when it was pointing at me.

I haven't seen you around these parts before, miss...?

Prince. Diana Prince.

I was on my way to meet a friend

when he hijacked my car.

And this friend you were going to meet?

Well, he's at the Red Mountain army missile range

about 20 miles from here

and, uh, I'm already late, Sheriff.

I'm afraid you're gonna have to be a little later.

I've to take you to town, sign a statement.

Um, what town?

Name is Burrogone.

Oh, it's back there a ways.

I, uh, I guess you can drive your own car and follow me.

Um...

Alright, I guess.

Um, I just hope we don't take too long.

( sheriff starts car )

( starts car )

Sheriff Bill to Home Plate.

Come in, Luther. You read me? Over.

You catch that guy on the motorcycle yet?

Bringing him in now.

Some girl he tried to get a car away from.

Bringing her in, too.

So tell everybody to get into their song-and-dance.

Over and out.

( barking )

Better take your car

over to Ernie's and gas up.

It's the last gas station in 100 miles.

Okay. Thanks, Sheriff.

I'll join you soon as we lock him up.

Okay.

Thank you.

Get the other end.

Get out of here, dog!

Mac MacDonald.

He's coming around.

Swell.

All we need is for him to start shooting off his mouth

while I'm getting a statement from that girl.

You want I should arrange a terminal accident for him?

No, no.

Not unless we have to.

No, we'll just keep him on ice here.

It's that girl that's got me worried.

Oh, dog, what is the matter with you?!

Will you go home?

( whimpers )

Oh, Luther, take a truck out to the highway

and pick up his cycle.

I don't want it raising any questions out there.

Yes, sir, Sheriff.

Something strike you funny, Luther?

Oh, no, I was just thinking

you sure do sound official.

Well, we'd better all sound

like what we're supposed to be

while we got a stranger in town.

Yes, sir, Sheriff.

Yes, sir.

What's the matter with the people in this town, anyway?

They act like they've never seen a stranger before.

Stranger? Yeah.

Oh, sure.

We get strangers through here all the time.

Anyway, six, eight times a year.

'Course, they ain't all as pretty as you.

( laughing )

Oh, hi, Sheriff.

I can take that statement now.

Good.

We can do it over coffee if it's okay to you.

Just so I can be on my way as soon as possible, Sheriff.

We wouldn't want to keep you around here

any longer than we have to.

Would we, Ernie?

No, sir.

Statement of Miss

Diana Prince regards armed robbery attempt--

parenthesis-- grand theft auto attempt

parenthesis-- by suspect Mac MacDonald.

Oh! Sometimes I think the pack rats

carried these things off and brought them back again.

Sheriff, it's really getting late and I really have to...

You were to meet someone at the test site?

Well, yeah, but by this time

he probably thinks I got lost.

TREVOR: Diana was supposed to be there

over two hours ago, Hal.

Yeah. Frankly I'm worried, Steve.

I've called the main gate.

There's no sign of her there.

Nothing on the approach road?

No, the gate guard can see ten miles of it from his position.

Keep me informed, Hal.

When she reaches, give her a fast escort.

I want her there for the final countdown.

Right.

MAN: Seating down program trajectory.

Program yaw 17 degrees left of six

two degrees right of six.

Programmed yaw 17 degrees

left of six, two degrees right of six.

45 degree climb, 15 degree left turn

with three degree descent.

Where's our countdown, corporal?

Minus 52 minutes, captain.

Right turn 45 degrees,

three degrees climb, to the left 12 degrees.

Center guidance to acquisition mode.

Arm warhead for impact timing.

Mission complete, lieutenant.

All responses a-okay.

Right, corporal.

How did it go, Andy?

All systems are go, captain.

This baby will think the Athena rocket

right to its target.

Good. There's just one thing

that worries me. Yeah? What's that?

Well, there were supposed to be two of these:

A back-up in case one got damaged in transit.

Now, when I came over here to uncrate them an hour ago

I found this in one crate...

and this in the other one.

A regular-issue flight helmet.

Right. So where's my back-up control helmet?

This better be a foul-up or we're in big trouble.

Better find out in a hurry.

We sure appreciate your cooperation, Miss Prince.

Sure I can't buy you a little lunch? No, thanks, anyway.

Maybe next time I come to Burrogone, Sheriff.

Well, thanks again.

Hey, Frieda!

Whip me up a chili size...

Good-bye, Sheriff Beal.

Hey, what are you doing?!

What in...

what are you doing to my car?

By golly, this sure is your lucky day, miss.

Just on a whim, I checked under your hood

and dogged if your fuel pump wasn't leaking.

Well, your whole car might have blowed up on you.

Why, just look at this little bugger.

Look at the gasoline pour out of there.

Well, I'll have it fixed up for you right away.

No time at all.

( country music playing softly )

( static )

( warbling )

( clicks it off )

( sighs )

MAN: Y-You trying to get the news?

Uh... hi. Who are you?

I'm just George.

Just George?

Yes, that's what everybody says

when they see me.

"That's just George."

Well, I'm just Diana, George.

I'm happy to meet you, Diana George.

No, no, no, no.

I'm, uh, Diana, George.

That's what I said, ma'am.

Diana George.

Yes, that's what you said.

Um, I can't seem to get my car radio to work.

Oh! Maybe you, you, you

read a newspaper?

Only costs a dime.

But this ( chuckles )

This newspaper is, uh, three weeks old, George.

That's why it costs a dime.

Costs a quarter new.

Don't want it, huh?

Oh, no, it's fine.

I'll tell you what, uh

I'll pay you full price for the newspaper

if you'll give me some information.

( laughs ) Good.

Any, anything you want... anything.

Okay, uh, is there a car for rent

or a taxi service in town?

No, ma'am, nothing like that, no.

What about a bus?

There's got to be a bus that goes through Burrogone.

One came through, uh, uh

about eight years ago.

The driver was lost.

( laughing )

( chortles )

Well, uh...

what about a public telephone?

Is there a public telephone somewhere in town?

Flo has one in the front room.

She's our telephone operator.

That is the best news I've heard all morning.

( chuckles )

You're a doll.

Thank you.

Flo is not home now.

She's not?

No, no. She went to the store.

I seen her go.

She'll be back i-i-in a little while.

I can't even call Hal to send someone to pick me up.

That's great.

I get the feeling there's something very strange

going on in this town.

I gotta go now.

Hey, wait!

( moans softly )

( barks )

Nice, nice, nice doggie.

Friendly doggie, nice doggie.

Nice dog, nice dog.

( grunting )

Come on.

Get out of the way.

LUTHER: I'm telling you, Sheriff, we're in trouble

we don't get rid of her before she gets wise.

Okay, hero.

You want to be the one to do it?

Why don't we give the job to Flo?

Not a bad idea.

You want me to check on her, boss?

BEAL: No, I'll do that.

Well, what do you know?

Hmm?

That prisoner we got in the cell there?

Mmm?

Seems he got into a little misdemeanor mischief

a couple of years back.

Halloween mischief on a motorcycle.

Something else.

What?

You'll never guess who his uncle is.

Who?

The sheriff of Burrogone.

( laughing heartily )

Hey, been looking at your dossier here, Mac.

Seems as though you's a regular jailbird, ain't you?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's right.

You sleep it off.

The more you don't see, the longer you stay alive.

( dog barks )

( barking )

Hey, now what you doing in there?

( whimpering )

Hey, come on back here.

( keys jangling )

( opening lock )

Oh, no!

Sheriff! Sheriff Beal!

Mac has escaped.

( thunderclap )

( crash )

No!

No, no!

No, no!

No, no!

( motor revving )

No, no!

No, no! No!

( tires squealing )

WOMAN: Just come on in. It's open.

I am speaking up, Mrs. Merkle.

Oh, just have a seat.

I'll be with you in just a minute.

Well, I'm shouting myself hoarse.

There's so much noise on the line today, that's all.

But they're working on it.

It'll be cleared up soon.

It's Mrs. Merkle.

Yes, alright.

The prisoner, Mac, he's escaped.

I want you all

to keep your eyes peeled for him.

Oh, and incidentally, one of you two jokers

is gonna have to pay

for a new vehicle

out of your share of the take.

How they coming?

Be a while yet, it looks like.

They don't have the rocket in firing position.

Well, sing out when they do.

Is that walkie-talkie working?

Yeah.

Alright, Mrs. Merkle.

My best to Fred, too.

Maybe later we could hear each other better.

( sighs )

Well, hello, dearie.

My name's Flo.

It's nice to meet you, Flo.

There something I can do for you?

As a matter of fact, there is.

I want to make a call to the military testing grounds

about 30 miles from here.

Oh, I know where it is, alright.

Trouble is, there's so much line noise today.

I don't know what it is-- maybe sunspots or something.

You might do better if you plugged it in to the outgoing

as opposed to the incoming.

Mercy sakes, you're right.

You'd think after 25 years

I'd get the hang of this thing.

May I?

Well, uh, sure.

( static )

It's bad enough here in town

but on that trunk line out to the testing grounds--

just no way.

It's the same static I heard

on the car radio this morning.

You know, a person might get the idea

someone was jamming communications

in and out of Burrogone.

You mean Commies?

Hey, you, hold it right there!

Hold it!

Hey, Mac!

Mac, you come back here right now!

You didn't say "please," Luther.

( bellows ): Go after him, don't just stand!

Yes, sir, I'm going, I'm going.

It's so lovely you could join me

for a cup of tea.

There's one thing about Burrogone.

It's not much of a town,

but we do try to make folks feel welcome.

I bet you never heard of this town before today,

did you, dearie?

Uh, actually, I did.

I remember reading an article a while back

about colorful western place names.

Burrogone, do you know what the name means?

Why, goodness no, child.

It's just a name.

It doesn't mean anything.

I suppose not.

Do you take anything in yours?

No thanks, Flo, nothing in mine.

Well, here you are.

Now, you drink this.

I can tell you were all tensed up about something.

Now I'll get mine.

Now, here we are.

Isn't this lovely?

Have a little tea party.

Ooh! Ooh!

Oh, I am so sorry.

I, I'm just

I'm clumsy today for some reason.

Everything else has been happening...

it's no trouble at all.

I'll get a towel to mop that up.

Okay.

There's plenty of water for another cup.

Here we are.

I goofed.

Had it all set up and she walked out.

MAC: Psst, psst!

( hushed ): Lady, listen.

I don't know what your name is but you have to trust me.

Trust you? I can't even see you.

And if you are who I think you are...

you pulled a gun on me.

If it hadn't been for Wonder Woman, you'd have stolen my car.

I understand that you travel in the best of company

Thought you were one of them.

Lady, you've got to trust me.

I heard them plan it with Flo for how to kill you.

Okay, you don't believe me?

Go inside and have a cup of tea.

Okay, okay.

Where do we talk?

Turn to your right, there's a freight depot.

Oh! Sorry, I'm sorry.

I just wanted to make sure you weren't followed, okay?

Who are you?

Mac. Mac MacDonald.

Okay.

One-time citizen of Burrogone

but I'm a for-real citizen.

They put you in the jail.

How did you get out, Mac MacDonald?

My uncle's the sheriff of this town.

When I was 13 years old,

Jailbreak Willie taught me how to bust out of jail.

Hey, listen, I was just passing through town.

I figured I'd come in and say hello to Uncle Burt.

I get into town, and nobody

I mean, nobody, is who they're supposed to be

especially Uncle Burt.

Well, if Flo or Ernie are any indication

I'd say they're all impostors.

Am I right?

Every last one of them.

I want to show you something.

"Free! Weekend in Las Vegas

"for entire population of Burrogone!

April 13, 14, and 15."

Today's the 14th, right?

That's right.

There's nobody in town.

Alright.

But we still don't know who these people are

or what they're up to.

No, except the only obvious thing they've done

is they've set up a portable generator

inside the barn at the end of town.

Yes, I have seen that building.

( sighs deeply )

Okay, then it's your turn to trust me.

Okay?

Okay.

I think it's part of a plan

to steal an army missile being tested in about an hour

from the Red Mountain missile range.

What's our next move?

Well, your next move

is to do whatever you have to to get out of town.

Go to Captain Hal Shavers at the Red Mountain test area

and tell him to abort the Athena flight.

What about you? You gonna be okay?

Well, I'm going to do everything I can

to put that generator out of commission.

Go on and be careful.

These are five of them, Bill.

You've been on the project since it started.

Look familiar? Who are they?

These are men who have left the project

or who have been fired because of potential security risk.

No, sorry.

None of them ring a bell.

( intercom buzzes )

Excuse me.

Trevor.

Yeah, put him through.

It's Hal Shavers.

Yeah, Hal, look,

I've got five prime suspects here.

Any one of them could have taken the missing control helmet.

Well, there's not much we can do about it now, Steve,

except maybe pray.

We're, um... eight minutes and counting from launch.

Any sign of Diana?

None. Looks like she's going to miss all the excitement.

Well, keep me posted, I'll be here.

Any problems?

No, it's been quiet.

Some of us are getting pretty tired

of all this dumb playacting.

When do we see some loot out of all of this?

You've already seen some pretty good loot up front.

The payoff isn't far away now.

Well, it better be worth it.

( thunderclap )

( grunts )

Hold it right there, little lady.

The dummy here tells me you saved him

from being run over by the Jeep.

Maybe you'd like to save him from having his head ventilated.

Nothing tells me that he isn't one of you.

Everybody else is.

Want to bet?

'Course, you don't have as much to lose as George has.

No, please.

Don't let him do it, please.

( sighs ) Alright.

What do you want me to do?

Just let me lock you up somewhere

till we're done with what we're doing.

Why lock me up?

Why don't I just leave?

Leave?

Yeah.

Fly away.

Like this.

Bad man.

George.

Not even the real sheriff.

George.

( coughs )

And I'm not the real, real George.

Straight in the face this stuff will stop a herd of elephants.

Is she dead?

I doubt it.

But she can't bother us anymore.

Where's Ernie?

Ernie?

Help!

Ernie?

Help!

Help!

Get that idiot down.

I want everybody in the street

in two minutes flat.

Now let's move it.

CORPORAL: Five, four...

three, two...

one, zero.

Fire.

We are in flight.

All systems go.

All systems go.

Proceeding down programmed trajectory.

Roll maneuver number one proceeding as programmed.

First program system's a-ok.

( beeping )

Programmed yaw two degrees left of six.

Repeat, programmed yaw two degrees left of six.

Commencing 12 degrees turn

right of six.

Level climb, 45 degrees to 32 degrees and holding.

Attention: the Athena rocket

has completed 90% of its required maneuvers

on its "A" program.

( cheering and applause )

Perfect. Now bring it back and we'll try the "B" run.

Commencing 45 degrees ascent for "B" run.

15 degrees left turn

with maximum acceleration.

Repeat, repeat.

15 degrees left turn.

( regular beeping halts ) 15 Degrees left turn.

What are you doing?

It's getting away from me.

Rocket now in unprogrammed yaw to right.

Unprogrammed yaw completed, to 32 degrees minimal trajectory.

Missile now violating test range facility.

Are we still transmitting?

Yes, sir, we're wide open.

Captain...

I'm picking up a transmission

beamed our way.

Is it capable of interfering with ours?

Yes... yes, sir, it is.

( beeping )

( feedback-like whine )

( tires squealing )

Captain!

Captain, I can't control it.

It's not responding.

Don't knock yourself out, Andy.

It's the other control helmet.

We found it.

Get a bearing on its new course.

M.P.s and security people, saddle up!

We're going after it.

( motorcycle approaching )

( screeches to halt )

Who are you? Are you Shaver?

What do you want?

Have a message from a Diana Prince

to abort Athena flight.

Don't tell me I'm too late.

We'll see about that.

Alright, everybody, let's go!

( beeping )

There it is, I see it!

( all exclaiming )

Bull's-eye!

Whoo-hoo!

He did it!

Don't touch it.

It works.

It works!

( sighs in satisfaction )

Don't you have that other important item, Sheriff?

Sure thing. Got it all ready over in the sheriff's office.

Don't you think it calls for a little celebration?

Yes, sir.

Okay, hey, everybody.

Let's go back to the jail.

We got a party going on!

( whooping )

( all chattering excitedly )

Sir! Sir, the missile's landed

30 miles south of here.

Right. We'll see how fast we can travel 30 miles.

Come on.

( whooping, laughing and hollering )

We're having a party.

Aren't you going to have a drink?

This stuff packs an awful wall...

wallop.

More of a wallop than you think, Sheriff.

Why, you...

( groans )

See, my friends, I'm not really

very much of a sharing person.

Besides, you would have been all too greedy

to wait for the big payoff, anyway.

A million dollars' cash sale is nothing.

You understand that

Wonder Woman? Nothing!

Just as soon as I build a few more of these helmets...

I'll hold the whole country for ransom.

( chuckles )

The military...

the airlines...

they'll all have to pay

if they want their planes to fly unmolested.

You see, uh...

there's no defense against a thought-controlled missile.

( chuckles )

Follow me.

( missile whooshing )

( missile whistling faintly )

( thunderclap )

( guns engine )

There he is now.

( missile warbling )

( revving engine )

( cycle crashes )

It was all perfect.

Everything planned, step by step,

and you had to show up.

Well, there are some things you just can't count on.

Come on, George.

( barks )

Alright, let's go.

Load 'em up.

( barks )

Genius, huh?

Get them aboard.

Well, there it is, Steve.

You know, the IADC Owes a big vote of thanks

to a young man by the name of Mac MacDonald.

I'll see to it that he gets a commendation, Diana.

They want to give you a medal. Hmm.

STEVE: By the way, I found out that your friend George

is Dr. Wonderlie.

He was fired off the project two months ago

when they found he was playing footsies

with a foreign government.

He's a very dangerous man, Steve.

I hope they lock him up for a long time.

I think you can count on that, Diana.

So long.

Okay, bye.

Hal.

You know, I should have known

these people weren't the real residents of Burrogone

when old Flo gave it away.

She didn't know what the name meant.

Burrogone?

What does it mean?

Why don't you tell him, Mac?

I'll tell you what

I'll tell him the story

if you promise to have lunch with me tomorrow.

Okay.

The story goes there was this old prospector

and he came into town and he met these Indians.

And he taught them how to play poker.

He taught them so well that he lost everything he owned

except for his mule.

Takes his mule and puts it in the last pot.

And?

That's what Burrogone means.

This is the town that he lost his, uh...

jackass in.
