THE BLUES BROTHERS
by
John Landis & Dan Aykroyd
FADE IN:
WALKING THROUGH THE PRISON
Jake is escorted by two Guards down a jail hall.
PRISONER
Hey!!
IN THE PAROLE OFFICE
GUARD ONE
Well, this is it.
He opens the door and all three of them enter the room.
GUARD TWO
What wing?
GUARD ONE
Maximum wing, block 9.
GUARD TWO
Standard release?
GUARD ONE
Parole, 3 out of 5, good behaviour.
GUARD TWO
Gimme a minute...
He gets Jake's belongings.
GUARD TWO
One Timex digital watch, broken. One unused
prophylactic. One soiled.
Outside view of Elwood pulling up to the jail entrance.
GUARD TWO
One black suit jacket. One pair of black
suit pants. One hat, black. One pair of
sunglasses. Twenty three dollars and seven
cents. Sign here.
Jake signs an "X" on the form.
Opening Credits start rolling.
SONG: "She Caught the Katy" (background music)
JAKE AND ELWOOD IN THE CAR
JAKE
What's this?
ELWOOD
What?
JAKE
This car. This stupid car. Where's the
Cadillac? The Caddy? Where's the Caddy?
ELWOOD
The what?
JAKE
The Cadillac we used to have. The Blues
Mobile!
ELWOOD
I traded it.
JAKE
You traded the Blues Mobile for this?
ELWOOD
No. For a microphone.
JAKE
A microphone? Okay I can see that. Well,
what the hell is this?
ELWOOD
This was a bargain. I picked it up at the
Mount Prospect City Police auction last
spring. It's an old Mount Prospect Police
Car. They were practically giving them
away.
JAKE
Well, thank you pal, the day I get out of
prison, my own brother picks me up in a
police car.
Fog horn and warning bell sounds.
ELWOOD
You don't like it?
JAKE
No, I don't like it.
Elwood drives over a raising draw bridge.
JAKE
Cars got a lot of pick up.
ELWOOD
It's got a cop motor, a four hundred and
forty cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires,
cop suspension, cop shocks, it was a model
made before catalytic converters so it'll
run good on regular gas. Whaddya say? Is it
the new Blues Mobile or what?
JAKE
Fix the cigarette lighter.
OUTSIDE THE ORPHANAGE
JAKE
What are we doing here?
ELWOOD
You promised you'd visit the penguin the
day you got out.
JAKE
Yeah? So, I lied to her.
ELWOOD
You can't lie to a nun. We gotta go in and
visit the penguin.
JAKE
No fucking way!
INSIDE THE ORPHANAGE
Jake and Elwood go in and climb the stairs until they reach a door.
Just before Elwood knocks on the door, a voice is heard from
inside.
NUN
Who is it?
ELWOOD
Jake and Elwood.
NUN
Come in.
They go in. The door shuts behind them.
NUN
Hello boys, nice to see you. Please, have a
seat.
Jack and Elwood sit on seats at back of room.
NUN
No no boys. Come over here in front of me.
I want to see your faces.
They shuffle up a bit closer.
NUN
The county took a tax assessment of this
property last month. They want five
thousand dollars.
ELWOOD
Doesn't the church have to pay that?
NUN
They would if they were interested in
keeping the place, but they aren't. The
Arch Bishop wants to sell this building
outright to the board of Education.
ELWOOD
What's gonna happen to you?
NUN
I'll be sent to the missions.
JAKE
Forget it, five grand; no problem, we'll
have it for you in the morning. Let's go
Elwood.
NUN
NO NO! I will not take your filthy stolen
money.
JAKE
Well then, I guess you're really up shit
creek.
The nun hits Jake on the hand with a ruler.
NUN
I beg your pardon what did you say?
JAKE
I offered to help you. You refused to take
our money, then I said "I guess you're
really up shit creek"
She hit's him again.
ELWOOD
Christ Jake take it easy, man
NUN
Elwood!
She starts hitting them both as the language deteriorates.
ELWOOD
Ah you fat penguin!
The ruler breaks and the Nun reaches for a sword. Jake and Elwood
go tumbling down the stairs.
NUN
You are such a disappointing pair. I prayed
so hard for you. It saddens and hurts me
that the two young men whom I raised to
believe in the ten commandments have
returned to me as two thieves, with filthy
mouths and bad attitudes. Get out! And
don't come back until you've redeemed
yourselves.
She disappears back into her office and the door mysteriously
closes.
CURTIS
Boys, you gotta learn not to talk to nuns
that way. Jake! Elwood!
JAKE & ELWOOD
Curtis!
CURTIS
Hey, buy you boys a drink?
CURTIS'S KITCHEN
CURTIS
Boys, things are bad. They're gonna sell
this place to the board of education and
I'll be out on the street. That money's
gotta be in the Cook County Assessors
office within 11 days.
JAKE
They wouldn't turn you out would they?
CURTIS
Shit. What's one more old nigger to the
board of education?
ELWOOD
Curtis, you and the penguin are the the
only family we got. And you're the only one
that was ever good to us. Singing Elmore
James tunes and blowing the harp for us
down here.
CURTIS
Well, the sister was right. You boys could
use a little churching up. Slide on down to
the Triple Rock and catch Reverend
Cleophis. You boys listen to what he's got
to say.
JAKE
Curtis, I don't wanna listen to no jive ass
preacher talking to me about heaven and
hell.
CURTIS
Jake, you get wise! You get to church!
AT THE TRIPLE ROCK CHURCH
MC
And now, this weeks sermon is from our
beloved the Reverend Cleophis James.
REVEREND JAMES
And now people. And now people. When I woke
up this morning, I heard a disturbing
sound. I said, when I woke up this morning
I heard a disturbing sound. What I heard
was the jingle-jangle of a thousand lost
souls. And I'm talking about the souls of
all the men and women, departed from this
life. Wait a minute, the Lord says the
souls of us here on earth is, secret of
divine life, they'll not find. Because it's
too late... Too late yeah, too late for
them to ever see again, the light they once
chose not to follow, don't be lost when the
time comes. For the day of the Lord cometh,
out of deep in the night. Amen. Amen.
SONG: "The Old Landmark" (congregation singing and dancing).
ELWOOD
Jake, you alright?
Ray of sunlight shines through the church onto Jake.
JAKE
The band...
(louder)
The band...
REVEREND JAMES
Do you see the light?
JAKE
(louder)
The band!
REVEREND JAMES
Do you see the light?
ELWOOD
What light?
REVEREND JAMES
Have you seen the light?
JAKE
Yes, Yes! Jesus H. god damned bastard
Christ, I have seen the light!
Jake starts dancing with the others.
JAKE
The band Elwood. The band!
ELWOOD
The band?... The band. The band? The band!
REVEREND JAMES
Praise God.
ELWOOD
And God bless the United States of America.
JAKE AND ELWOOD, IN THEIR CAR
SONG: "Soothe me" (In the background.)
JAKE
We'll put the band back together, do a few
gigs, we get some bread. Bang! Five
thousand bucks.
ELWOOD
Yeah, well, getting the band back together
might not be that easy.
JAKE
What're you talking about?
ELWOOD
They split, they all took straight jobs.
JAKE
Yeah so you know where they are. You said
you were gonna keep in touch with them
ELWOOD
I got a coupla leads, a few phone numbers,
but I mean, how many of them visited or
even wrote you huh?
JAKE
They're not the kinda guys who write
letters. You were outside, I was inside,
you were s'posed to keep in touch with the
band. I kept asking you if we were gonna
play again.
ELWOOD
Well, what was I gonna do? Take away you're
only hope? Take away the very thing that
kept you going in there? I took the liberty
of bullshitting you, okay?
JAKE
You lied to me.
ELWOOD
It wasn't lies, it was just bullshit.
Jake and Elwood are in the car, and go through a yellow traffic
light. Police lights flash in the rear view mirror.
ELWOOD
Shit!
JAKE
What?
ELWOOD
Rollers.
JAKE
No?
ELWOOD
Yeah.
JAKE
Shit.
Elwood pulls over as directed and an officer approaches the car.
ELWOOD
What? What did I do?
OFFICER DANIEL
You failed to stop at a red signal.
ELWOOD
The light was yellow sir.
OFFICER DANIEL
May I see your license please?
He takes the license back to the squad car.
JAKE
Goddamnit!
ELWOOD
Man I haven't been pulled over in six
months. I bet those cops have got SCMODS.
JAKE
SCMODS?
ELWOOD
State, County, Municipal, Offender, Data,
System.
The two officers return to Jake and Elwood's car.
OFFICER DANIEL
Elwood, we show your license currently
under suspension. Step out of the car
please.
Elwood starts the car and drives off. The officers run back to
their car and follow.
JAKE
First you trade the Caddilac for a
microphone, then you lie to me about the
band, now you're gonna put me right back in
the joint.
ELWOOD
They're not gonna catch us. We're on a
mission from God.
JAKE
Elwood!
OFFICER MOUNT
(into CB)
We are in high speed pursuit northbound on
Cortlen Avenue. Black and white 1974 Dodge
sedan with Illinios plates. Request
assistance.
Elwood turns into a parking lot. Officers pursue.
ELWOOD
It would be alright if we could just get
back on the expressway.
JAKE
This don't look like no expressway to me!
ELWOOD
Don't yell at me.
JAKE
What the hell do you want me to do
motorhead?
ELWOOD
Well, try not to be so negative all the
time. Why don't you offer some constructive
criticism?
JAKE
You got us into this parking lot pal, so
you get us out.
