Charlie, would I lie to you?
Charlie, take it easy. That's all in the past.
He hung up on me.
A lot of burnt bridges, Mr. Blues.
I know you can book us somewhere.
You're still the best.
Ever hear of Queen Moussette?
The Louisiana witch, Queen Moussette?
That's her. She has a "Battle of the Bands"
going on at her club.
Big cash prize. Your band wins,
I get 15 percent of the take.
I'll book you a couple of gigs
on the way to Louisiana.
Golly, thanks, Mr. Sline.
Let go of me.
Sorry.
One more thing. You'll have to audition
for Queen Moussette.
Don't tell the boys about this.
We'll call to find out where our first gig is.
Just be careful, Elwood.
Alan Rubin.
Mr. Fabulous.
Mr. Fabulous.
The Blues Brothers Band.
You're going to love them.
They're absolutely sensational.
Really sensational.
They're a great blues band.
Yeah, blues band.
No, blues, not bluegrass.
You don't want a blues band?
Bluegrass.
They're the Bluegrass Brothers.
They're wonderful.
They absolutely pulverize an audience.
You're going to call and thank me.
The Bluegrass Brothers.
Our first date is at the county fair...
...in Cynthiana, Kentucky...
...and then we have this mystery gig
in Louisiana.
Mystery gig?
Elwood, you got the keys to the trunk?
It's full.
I haven't played a county fair since '68.
Sounds like a lot of laughs.
We're back on the road again.
Who are you, Willie Nelson?
I'll ride with Elwood.
Go right ahead, Mr. Thrill-Seeker.
Excuse me, sir.
Didn't you used to be Elwood Blues?
Who's asking?
I've listened to your stuff since I was a kid.
Yeah, so?
My friends and I have a band.
We're rehearsing nearby.
It would be so cool, and mean so much
to me, if you'd come listen to us play.
Sure. Go get started
and I'll be there in a minute.
Great.
Let's highball!
Mr. Blues?
- It's been almost seven days, Mother Mary.
- We must call the police.
Kidnapping is a federal offence.
I suppose you're right.
We should call the police.
Sir.
We just received a call.
Elwood Blues has kidnapped a child.
Roachdale 31.
- Wait.
- I got a cheeseburger cooling, man.
Buster, I'm sorry,
you'll have to see a bad side of me.
Mack, your shaving cream.
So none of you are driving that Ford?
No.
And whose dry white toast is that?
Run for your lives!
My God, help us! Somebody help us!
He's having an attack!
It's puffball bacteria!
It's extremely contagious!
What in Sam Hill?
Run away! Oh, God!
It's puffball bacteria! It's contagious!
Save yourselves!
Save yourselves!
Save yourselves! Save yourselves!
Hot damn. That's quite a trick.
That white trash ex-con
invented criminally evasive driving.
He kidnapped a little...
Get after him!
Murph?
Go ahead.
See you at the gig.
Where is the gig?
County fairgrounds, off Route 107,
Cynthiana, Kentucky, 11 PM tomorrow.
See you there.
How will he get there
with all the cops after him?
Wait a minute.
Don't I know you boys from somewhere?
Check, please.
We have to get off this road.
They've called ahead by now.
Two miles down, get off this
and on County Road 245 to Mariah Hill.
That'll get us close to the State line.
We have to lose them first.
You passed the turn.
I know.
You're hoping they lost interest?
This is Agent Peters
and Agent Bowman, FBI.
