Reese Bobby:
[walks into the classroom] Excuse me, darlin'. I'm Reese Bobby. I'm here for career day.

10 year old Ricky Bobby:
Dad!

Reese Bobby:
Hey there, boy! Man, you got big. How long's it been? Three, four months?

10 year old Ricky Bobby:
Ten years.

Reese Bobby:
Ten years? Man! I gotta lay off the peyote. [puts a cigarette in his mouth]

Ricky's teacher:

Reese Bobby:

[Reese jumps in his #13 Chevelle and speeds away; the children all cheer again.]

10 year old Ricky Bobby:
If you ain't first, you're last...
