“Green Onions” by Booker T & the MGs plays as Milner and Falfa race. Falfa’s car rolls, almost killing him and Laurie. Steve arrives on the scene just in time to pledge to a hysterical Laurie that he’ll never leave her. Pete Mummert of Indiana Jones Minute joins Tierney to talk about uncooperative stunt cars, Indiana University’s own Booker T. Jones, flashlights, what happens to Falfa after his car explodes, and why Steve chooses to stay.
