Travis:
I'll tell you why. I think you're a lonely person. I drive by this place a lot and I see you here. I see a lot of people around you. And I see all these phones and all this stuff on your desk. It means nothing. Then when I came inside and I met you, I saw in your eyes and I saw the way you carried yourself that you're not a happy person. And I think you need something. And if you want to call it a friend, you can call it a friend.

Betsy:
Are you gonna be my friend?

Yeah. What do ya say? It's a little hard standing here and asking...Five minutes, that's all, just outside. Right around here. I'm there to protect ya. [He quickly flexes both arms, causing her to laugh] Come on, just take a little break.

Travis:
I know what you mean. I've got the same problems. I gotta get organized. Oh little things, like my apartment, my possessions. I should get one of those signs that says 'One of these days I'm gonna get organizized.'

Betsy:
You mean 'organized'?

Travis:
Organiziezed. Organiziezed - it's a joke. O-R-G-A-N-E-Z-I-E-Z-D.

Betsy:
Oh, you mean 'Organizized'. Like those little signs they have in offices that say "Thimk".

Travis:
You sayin' that about me?

Betsy:
Who else would I be talkin' about?

Travis:
I'm no pusher. I never have pushed.

Travis:
I'm one of your biggest supporters, you know. I tell everybody that comes in this taxi that they have to vote for you.

Palantine:
Why thank you - [Pleased, he glances to check Travis' picture, identification and license posted in the rear seat] - Travis.

Travis:
I'm sure you're gonna win sir. Everybody I know is gonna vote for ya. You know in fact, I was gonna put one of your stickers in my taxi but you know, the company said it was against their policy. But they don't know anything, you know. They're a bunch of jerks.

Palantine:
Let me tell you something. I have learned more about America from riding in taxi cabs than in all the limos in the country...Can I ask you something, Travis?

Travis:
Sure.

Palantine:
What is the one thing about this country that bugs you the most?

Travis:
Well, I don't know. I don't follow political issues that closely, sir. I don't know.

Palantine:
Oh but there must be something.

Travis:
Well. [He thinks] Whatever it is, you should clean up this city here, because this city here is like an open sewer you know. It's full of filth and scum. And sometimes I can hardly take it. Whatever-whoever becomes the President should just [Travis honks the horn] really clean it up. You know what I mean? Sometimes I go out and I smell it, I get headaches it's so bad, you know...They just never go away you know...It's like...I think that the President should just clean up this whole mess here. You should just flush it right down the fuckin' toilet.

Palantine:
Well, uh, I think I know what you mean Travis. But it's not gonna be easy. We're gonna have to make some radical changes.

Travis:
Damn straight.

Palantine:
Nice talkin' to you, Travis. [They shake hands]

Travis:
Nice talking to you sir. You're a good man. I know you're gonna win.

Betsy:
Are these the only kind of movies you go to?

Travis:
Well, yeah, I mean I come - this is not so bad.

Betsy:
Taking me to a place like this is about as exciting to me as saying: 'Let's fuck.'

BUT, you know, uh, you know, in my fucking cab, don't go bustin' heads, you know what I mean? God love you, do what you want.'

Tell 'em to go to California, 'cause out in California when two fags split up, one's got to pay the other one alimony.

Look, look at it this way, you know uh, a man, a man takes a job, you know, and that job, I mean like that, and that it becomes what he is. You know like uh, you do a thing and that's what you are. Like I've been a, I've been a cabbie for seventeen years, ten years at night and I still don't own my own cab. You know why? 'Cause I don't want to. I must be what I, what I want. You know, to be on the night shift drivin' somebody else's cab. Understand? You, you, you become, you get a job, you you become the job. One guy lives in Brooklyn, one guy lives in Sutton Place, you get a lawyer, another guy's a doctor, another guy dies, another guy gets well, and you know, people are born. I envy you your youth. Go out and get laid. Get drunk, you know, do anything. 'Cause you got no choice anyway. I mean we're all fucked, more or less you know.

Travis:
Yeah, I don't know. That's about the dumbest thing I ever heard.

Andy:
There you go - a supreme high re-sale weapon. Look at that. Look at that. That's a beauty. I could sell those guns to some jungle bunny in Harlem for five hundred bucks. But I just deal high-quality goods to the right people. How about that? This might be a little too big for practical purposes in which case for you, I'd recommend .38 snub nose. Look at this. Look at it. That's a beautiful little gun. It's nickel-plated, snub nose, otherwise the same as the service revolver. That'll stop anything that moves. The Magnum - they use that in Africa for killin' elephants. That .38 - it's a fine gun. Some of these guns are like toys. That .38 - you go out and hammer nails with it all day, come back and it will cut dead center on target every time. It's got a really nice action to it and a heck of a whallop. You interested in a automatic? It's a Colt .25 Automatic. It's a nice little gun. It's a beautiful little gun. It holds six shots in the clip, one shot in the chamber, if you're dumb enough to put a round in the chamber. Here, look at this. 380 Walther, holds eight shots in the clip. That's a nice gun. Now that's a beautiful little gun. Look at that. During World War II, they used this gun to replace the P38. Just given out to officers. Ain't that a little honey?

Travis:
How much for everything?

Andy:
Only a jack-ass would carry that cannon in the streets like that. Here. Here's a beautiful hand-made holster I had made in Mexico. $40 dollars...How about dope? Grass. Hash. Coke. Mescaline. Downers. Nebutol. Tuinal. Chloral Hydrates? How about any Uppers? Amphetamines.

Travis:
No I'm not interested in that stuff.

Andy:
Crystal meth. I can get ya crystal meth. Nitrous oxide. How about that? How about a Cadillac? I get ya a brand new Cadillac. With the pink slip for two grand.

Hey, you're a Secret Service man aren't ya? Huh?

Agent:
Just waiting for the Senator.

Travis:
You're waiting for the Senator? Oh! That's a very good answer. Shit! I'm waitin' for the sun to shine. Yeah. No, the reason I, I asked if you were a Secret Service man, I won't say anything, because I ...I saw some suspicious looking people over there. [Travis points away]' Yeah, they were over there, right over there. They were just here, uh. They were very, very, uh...

Agent:
...suspicious...

Travis:
Yeah. Is it hard to get to be in the Secret Service?

Agent:
Why?

Travis:
Well, I was just curious, because I think I'd be good at it. Very observant. I was in the Marine Corps you know, I'm good with crowds. I'm noticin' the little pin there. [Looking at the agent's lapel] That's like a signal isn't it?

Agent:
Sort of.

Travis:
A signal. A secret signal for the Secret Service. Hey, what kind of guns do you guys carry? .38s, .45s, .357 Magnums, somethin' bigger maybe?

Agent:
Look, uh, if you're really interested, if you give me your name and address, we'll send you all the information on how to apply. How's that?

Travis:
You will?

Agent:
Sure. [The agent takes out a notepad]

Travis:
OK. Why not? My name is Henry Krinkle. K-R-I-N-K-L-E. 154 Hopper Avenue.

Agent:
Hopper?

Travis:
Yeah. You know like a rabbit, hip, hop. Ha, ha. Fair Lawn, New Jersey.

Agent:
Is there a zip code to that Henry?

Travis:
Yeah, 610452. OK?

Agent:
That's, uh, six digits.

Travis:
Oh, well 61045.

Agent:
OK.

Travis:
I was thinking of my telephone number.

Agent:
Well, I've got it all. Henry, we'll get all the stuff right out to you.

Travis:
Thanks a lot. Hey, great. Thanks a lot. Hell, Jesus. Be careful today.

Agent:
Right. Will do.

[noticing Travis' Western boots] Shit. You're a real cowboy? That's nice, man. That's all right. Fifteen dollars, fifteen minutes, twenty-five dollars, half an hour.

Travis:
Shit.

Sport:
A cowboy, huh? I once had a horse, on Coney Island. She got hit by a car. Well, take it or leave it. If you want to save yourself some money, don't fuck her. Cause you'll be back here every night for some more. Man, she's twelve and a half years old. You ain't never had no pussy like that. You can do anything you want with her. You can cum on her, fuck her in the mouth, fuck her in the ass, cum on her face, man. She get your cock so hard she'll make it explode. But no rough stuff, all right?

Listen mister, it's your time. Fifteen minutes ain't long. When that cigarette burns out, your time is up. [Iris sits on the edge of the sofa and begins undressing]

Travis:
How old are you? You won't tell me? What's your name?

Travis:
Now what's your real name?

Iris:
Iris.

Travis:
Well, what's wrong with that? That's a nice name.

Iris:
Huh! That's what you think. [Iris begins to remove her top]

Travis:
No, don't do that. Don't do that. Don't you remember me? Remember when you got into a taxi, it was a checkered taxi. You got in and that that guy Matthew came by and he said he wanted to take you away. He pulled you away.

Iris:
I don't remember that.

Travis:
You don't remember any of that?

Iris:
No.

Travis:
Well. that's all right. I'm gonna get you out of here.

Iris:
So we'd better make it or Sport will get mad. So how do you want to make it?

Travis:
I don't want to make it. Who's Sport?

Iris:
Oh that's Matthew. I call him Sport. [She stands up and begins unbuckling the belt on his pants] You want to make it like this?

Travis:
Listen, uh, listen, hey, can I tell you somethin'. But you're the one that came into my cab. You're the one that wanted to get out of here.

Iris:
Well, I must have been stoned.

Travis:
Why, what do you mean? Do they drug you?

Iris:
Oh come off it, man.

Travis:
[Iris continues to try to unzip his fly] What are you doin'?

Iris:
Don't you want to make it?

Travis:
No, I don't want to make it. I want to help you.

Iris:
Well, I could help you. [Iris reaches for his pants again, but he pushes her back onto the sofa]

Travis:
Damn, man. Goddamn it. Shit, man. What the hell's the matter with you?

Iris:
Mister, you don't have to make it mister.

Travis:
Goddamn it. Don't you want to get out of here? Can't you understand why I came here?

Iris:
I think I understand, uh. I tried to get into your cab one night and you want to come and take me away. Is that it?

Travis:
Yeah, but don't you want to go?

Iris:
I can leave anytime I want to.

Travis:
Well then, what about that one night?

Iris:
Look, I was stoned. That's why they stopped me. 'Cause when I'm not stoned, I got no place else to go. So they just, uh, protect me from myself.

Travis:
Well, I don't know. I don't know. OK, I tried.

Iris:
I understand, and it means somethin', really.

Travis:
Oh look, can I see you again?

Iris:
Ha, ha, that's not hard to do.

Travis:
No, I don't mean like that. I mean, you know, regularly. This is nothing for a person to do.

Iris:
All right. How about breakfast tomorrow?

Travis:
Tomorrow when?

Iris:
I get up at about one o'clock.

Hey look. Sport never treated me bad. I mean he didn't beat me up or anything like that once.

Travis:
But you can't allow him to do the same to other girls. You can't allow him to do that. He is the lowest kind of person in the world. Somebody's got to do something to him. He's the scum of the earth. He's the worst s-s-sucking scum I have ever, ever seen. You know what he told me about you? He called you names. He called you a little piece of chicken.
