["Joliet" Jake and Elwood Blues are driving in the new Bluesmobile, a former police car.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
What's this?

Elwood Blues:
What?

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
This car. This stupid car. Where's the Cadillac?

[He tries the cigarette lighter, finds it doesn't work, and throws it out the window.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
The Caddy, where's the Caddy?

Elwood Blues:
The what?

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
The Cadillac we used to have. The Bluesmobile.

Elwood Blues:
I traded it.

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
You traded the Bluesmobile for this?

Elwood Blues:
No, for a microphone.

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
A microphone? Okay, I can see that. But what the hell is this?

Elwood Blues:
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.

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
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 Blues:
You don't like it?

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
No, I don't like it.

[Elwood jumps the car over an opening drawbridge.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
Car's got a lot of pickup.

Elwood Blues:
It's got a cop motor, a four hundred and forty cubic inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters, so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say? Is it the new Bluesmobile or what?

[Jake lights a cigarette using his own lighter.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues:
Fix the cigarette lighter.
