David Lyons (Gene Wilder) is deaf and runs a newspaper stand. Wally Karew (Richard Pryor) is blind and looking for gainful employment. When a man is murdered, David sees something and Wally hears something. But they end up accused and on the run.
A police officer is trying to take Lyons' mugshot. Sadly, communication is breaking down.
Police Officer
Why is he doing this to me? I just want him to face the camera.
Wally
He's not facing the camera?
Police Officer
NO!
Wally
It's news to me.
Dave
What?
Wally
Face the camera.
Police Officer
That's better. Hold it.
[As she presses the shutter, DAVE turns his head to talk to WALLY]
Police Officer
SH*T! SH*T! Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t...
Dave
Is she saying 'sh*t' or 'ship'?
Wally
Sh*t.
Police Officer
Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t...
Clip 4
Wally is driving, Dave is guiding because his hands are cuffed behind his back. Dave has just one concern...
Wally
How am I doin'?
Dave
Don't look at me, watch the road.
Wally
Oh, if it'll make you feel better...
Dave
One left...
Clip 5
The madcap car journey has not ended well. They're in a stolen police cruiser on a barge floating up the Hudson carrying tonnes of garbage. Smelly, rancid garbage.
Dave
Right now I'm a little overwhelmed... by the stink of the seven thousand tons of garbage that you drove me into.
Wally
Is that what it is? I thought you'd let one go. That's why I didn't say nothin'.
Dave
That was kind of you. Thank you.
Clip 6
Dave has tricked Wally into shouting into his ear to demonstrate that he is, actually, acutely deaf and hears nothing whatsoever.
Wally
You can hear me!
Dave
NO! SCHMUCK! I'M DEAF. NOW D'YA GET IT?
[He grabs WALLY and begins shaking him]
Clip 7
Wally swears a lot. Dave doesn't. Dave wishes he could. But he has to settle for mocking Wally.
Wally
But I say fu*k it. I'm not going to worry about him. Fu*k him.
Dave
You swear an awful lot.
Wally
You're fu*king-A right!
Dave
Fu*king-A. Somethin' bothers you, fu*k it. Your wife leaves you, fu*k her. Boss fires you? Heh... fu*k him, eh? Fu*k it, fu*k, fu*k 'em, fu*k it. Right?
Wally
You're fu*king right.
Dave
[Laughs]
That's right. You know that it's a blessing to be able to do that? I can't do it. You're a lucky guy. I can't do it.
Wally
Well fu*kin' change!
Clip 8
A heart-to-heart by the roadside. Wally feels bad about everything but Dave has had an epiphany.
Wally
And today I realised for the first time... I'm full of sh*t.
Dave
Well, that's true....but this morning, I threatened to shoot a naked woman with my erection. Now that doesn't happen every day.
