EXT. OUTSIDE THE MINI HOUSE - NIGHT
Vlad gets one of the bikes and starts riding. Ali and Matt are right behind.
MATT
Take a bike!
ALI
I can't ride well.
MATT
You'll remember it once you're on it.
ALI
You can't remember what you don't know!
MATT
Come on, he's getting away!
Ali fearfully gets on a bike. They start riding.
ALI
He had an iPad in the wall. That's what he took the pictures with! We have to get it.
EXT. BUDAPEST STREETS - NIGHT
Matt and Ali are following Vlad on their bikes.
MATT
He's getting away. We need to go faster!
ALI
I can't, I'm terrible at this!
MATT
You have to try.
ALI
Oh man!
Ali closes his eyes with fear while pedaling faster.
MATT
Open your eyes, Ali!
ALI
I'm scared!
A car passes by dangerously close, honking at them.
MATT
(yelling) Ali, open your fucking eyes, you're gonna crash!
Ali tries to open his eyes.
ALI
(yelling back) There is glitter in them. It hurts!
MATT
Gay problems! NO! "It Hurts" by Lena Philipsson!
ALI
You said something else, it doesn't count!
They keep on riding as fast as they can.
ALI
And why aren't you better at tying people up? You have so much practice!
A Eurovision-decorated bus cuts Vlad off.
MATT
He got cut off!
Ali makes a wild sprint and jumps on Vlad, knocking him down. As they roll on the ground, they fight for the iPad.
ALI
Give it to me, bitch!
Ali takes the iPad and throws it into the river. Matt comes and holds Vlad down.
MATT
OK. OK. I got him.
ALI
Gotta call Loukas.
Ali dials Loukas' number again. It's still off.
ALI
Turn on your phone, you Greek fucker!
MATT
Old school Turkish is sexy on you!
ALI
I have to get to the arena. What's the time?
VLAD
Valerie's about to go on and Loukas is next. You'll never make it.
Ali takes a look at the bike.
ALI
Yes, I will!
