The scene is where Dean(Jim) and Buzz are about to get into old cars, race to the edge of a cliff and whoever jumps out of the car closest to the edge of the cliff wins.
Buzz: This is the edge. That's the end. Jim: Yeah. It certainly is. Buzz: You know something? I like you. You know that? Jim: Why do we do this? Buzz: You got to do something, now don't you?
So like a lot of odd pastimes, ya gotta do something!
From the James Dean movie "Rebel without a Cause"
