Neal Page: I threw it away.
Car Rental Agent: Oh boy.
Neal Page: Oh boy what?
Car Rental Agent: You're fucked.

And it's his own fault.

Neal made a lot of bad decisions in this film. He never should have tried to make the 6, for one thing. His colleague probably took the 8 and got home.

How do you figure? Weren't all the flights canceled?

[–] avortac4 (3457) 4 years ago

He did get on the flight, so obviously not all flights were cancelled. Remember the 'my dogs are barking'-scene? That happened inside an airplane.

The 18:00 flight was not cancelled, it was DELAYED.

Terrible customer service.

That lady shouldn't have been gabbin' on the phone and should have tended to the customers instead.

This scene of Planes Trains And Automobiles always makes me laugh each time I watch it and I wondered why when Neal discovered his rental car was missing he should've called for help or asked what had happened to his car instead of causing a big ruckus and he should've gotten his money back. Edie McClurg is funny and cool as the rental car agent and I always act out that scene but in the last part I always say You're busted

Neal had had enough, he had been trying to keep his cool throughout his whole ordeal. Let's face it, dood ended up in Kansas, then had to go through Mizzou. This is enough to put anyone over the edge!

Pretty sure in customer service you aren’t supposed to tell the client that they are fucked

[–] ebhaynz (3527) 4 years ago

That's how they roll in St. Louie!

This is my own favorite scene from the film.

Typically, I don't like shock bomb gimmicks...(don't know how many F Bombs were dropped 7?).

And that's the great character actor, Edie McClurg behind the counter.
