We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid,
a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole multi colored collection of uppers, downers, laughers, screamers...
Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed
all that for the trip, but once you get into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
The only thing that really worried me was the ether.
There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.
Raoul Duke(v/o): We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like:
Raoul Duke: I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.
Raoul Duke(v/o): Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full with what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming:
Raoul Duke: Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?
Dr. Gonzo: Did you say something?
Raoul Duke: Hm? Never mind. It's your turn to drive.
Raoul Duke: No point in mentioning these bats, I thought. Poor bastard will see them soon enough.
GONZO
Here -- chew this. It's your half of the acid.
DUKE takes his half -- chews it.
DUKE
How long do I have?
GONZO
Maybe thirty more minutes. As your attorney, I advise you to drive at top speed.
It'll be a goddamn miracle if we can get there before you turn into a wild animal.
Areyou ready for that? Checking into a Vegas hotel under a phony name with intent to commit capital fraud and a head full of acid.
DUKE (V/O)
Thirty minutes. It was going to be very close.
Raoul Duke: Order some golf shoes. Otherwise, we'll never get out of this place alive.
