| Elvis Presley and Gary Lockwood play crop-dusters Mike Edwards and Danny Burke. "Hey, what's with the razor sharp turns? There's no Silver Cup at the end of this run!", Danny complains of Elvis' flying. | |

| "I think I just spotted a couple of sweet potatoes", he emphasizes. "You're a little confused, leader--those down there are russets", insists his buddy. Elvis: "Whatever they are, I'll take a bushel!" | |

| ...Elvis' pal realizes what he's really looking at. "Ah, chicks--I thought so." "How about the one in the red dress?" offers Elvis. "Ankles are a little thick, but, uh, she's more your type." | |

| Danny: "Look, I don't care if you wreck your half of the plane, but mine I wanna keep. Pull her up!" Elvis: "You just don't know a sweet potato when you see one." Danny: "No, but I know a telephone pole when I see one...pull her up!" | |

| "Imperial" nameplate is clearly visible as the girls pull to a stop. "Which way are you heading?" ask the guys. "North." "North, well isn't that a kick...north, just like us!" they echo, hopeful for a ride. | |

| "Would either of you gentleman have a match? Something's happened to our lighter." Poor, gullible Danny...he should have known something fishy was going on. As if the lighter would stop working on an Imperial! | |

| "Allow me," volunteers Danny, pulling out his lighter. "Solid gold plate, honey, but it's all yours." | |

| But no sooner does he hand her the lighter, than the women peel out in their '62 Imperial Crown convertible, before the guys can grab their stuff and hop in the back seat. | |
