A BLOODY LUCKY DAY
No, no.
Wait, wait.
This is our first family trip to the beach
since we got married 15 years ago.
Are you crying?
No, no, no.
You're such a sap.
The kids love it.
Yeah. This is indeed nice.
Only good things lie ahead.
That's what we deserve.
So we will be blessed from now on?
Of course.
Hey, let's buy a house next year.
You're an optimist without a plan.
Life isn't that easy, is it?
The fortune-teller said this will be a very lucky year,
so rest assured.
Should we all take a picture together?
Come on.
Ready? One, two, three.
One more.
One, two, three.
-Thank you. -Here you go.
-Thank you. -Let's go.
Dad, I want to see the pictures too.
-Wait, wait. -Me, first.
-Hey. -What about me?
Dad, what's wrong with the picture?
Why?
Seung-mi!
Honey!
Seung-hyeon, where are you?
Why am I here?
Where are we going?
I must go home. Please uncuff me.
Uncuff me!
Defendant, be quiet.
The defendant Taek violated the following laws.
Penal Code Article 347, Fraud.
Penal Code Article 355,
Embezzlement and Breach of Trust.
Fraud and breach of trust?
It wasn't me.
Risk of evidence tampering warrants
the defendant's arrest.
Arrest?
I can't be arrested.
Dad, Dad. Dad.
-Seung-mi. Honey. -Defendant, be quiet.
Seong-hyeon! Seung-mi!
Seung-hyeon! Honey!
Let me out.
My children and wife are waiting for me.
Hey. Hey!
Wait.
Dude, alarm!
Sorry.
Go to sleep.
Geez.
Right.
Pigs in a dream?
Lotto, lotto, lotto.
Looks like it'll be a beautiful day, right?
CO-OP MEMBER STATUS
-Damn it. -I dreamt of pigs.
Geez. You startled me.
Pulling pranks at your age?
Dozens of pigs.
-There was a drove of them. -So?
If I don't come tomorrow,
assume I won the jackpot. Jealous, right?
My dear friend,
I'm glad you're positive and optimistic.
You never stop dreaming.
-Lotto jackpot, here I come. -Aren't you hitting the road?
-Day-shift people have left. -Yang isn't back.
-He's late again? -Your shift already started.
He must have gotten a long-distance passenger.
He's working his butt off to make a few extra bucks
for child support.
Hey, it's just a few minutes.
I can cut him some slack.
Yang say he's hard-pressed to pay child support?
Yeah. The poor guy has it hard.
How gullible are you?
Yang lied to take advantage of you.
Yang is always late, right?
Any other cabbie
would've cussed him out and whooped his ass.
No.
He even showed me a picture of his child.
Wake up.
Everyone knows he has a gambling addiction and is money-crazed,
except for you.
-Really? -Geez.
Wait. Does that mean I've been had?
When will you stop being gullible,
believing everything people say?
There he is.
Yang will get it from me today.
Wait.
You know there are rumors that he was a mobster, right?
So what? I must speak my mind.
Hey, Taek...
Yang, why are you late again...
What? Did you smoke in the cab?
I told you passengers hate it.
It wasn't me.
It was a wasted passenger who was being unruly.
It wasn't you? Anyway, Yang, did you lie to me?
Although you're always late for shift changes,
I made allowances for your situation,
but not anymore.
-Do you know what time it is...? -I'm sorry, okay?
Sorry won't cut it...
What? What do you want then?
Well...
My back.
Your back hurts again?
Yes. I need to lie down.
Is there anything else?
I mean, you're not feeling well.
Do a hot compress.
ORAL MEDICATION
Yang! Yang, Yang!
Here, here, here.
You forgot this.
Are you still in treatment? No improvement?
Keep it down.
Tell the whole world, why don't you?
Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Seyang University.
Wow. Do you go to Seyang?
-My daughter goes there too. -I'm running late. Please hurry.
You must be in a hurry.
Off we go.
I didn't hear the alarm.
You know how much I want to go on this exchange program.
I've worked so hard for this interview.
I don't know. There's traffic too.
I'm doomed.
Where are you going?
Miss, trust me.
You should get to your interview.
How much time do you have?
Ten minutes.
You're not late, right? Bless you, sir.
-Keep the change. -Your change. Your...
1 TREASURE SEUNG-MI
Yes. Welcome. Hello.
-What? Jun Hyun-moo? -How do you do?
We're going to Sangam-dong. Do you mind if we film here?
No, no, no.
Be my guest. Yes.
Thank you. Let's go. Let's go.
You seem to be in a good mood.
Yes. I dreamt of pigs last night.
Maybe that's why business has been slow,
as soon as I hit the road today,
I got a passenger who didn't even want her change
and now a celebrity is in my cab.
How can my day be any more auspicious?
If you dreamt of pigs, won't something good happen?
What's better for a cab driver
than getting lots of passengers?
Shouldn't you get lotto tickets?
I did that as soon as I woke up.
Wow. You might win the jackpot.
Yes. I have a feeling.
Yep. I think I'll win.
Then let me ask you this.
If you win, what will you do with the winnings?
Sir?
My family has been through a lot because of me.
We can't live together. My wife is in her hometown.
First, I want to pay off my debt.
Then I want to get a place in Seoul
where our family can live together.
That was too heavy for a variety show.
-I'm sorry. -It's okay. It's okay.
You dreamt of pigs. Then you saw me.
Now everything will go your way, sir.
Let me cheer you on and lift your spirits.
Follow after me. One, two, three, four.
I can do it. Yes, I can.
One, two, three, four. Come on.
Come on.
-Ready... -I can do it. Yes, I can.
-I can do it. Yes, I can.
I can do it. Yes, I can.
If it's not too much trouble,
could I put you on a video call with my daughter?
She has been a fan since middle school.
Yes, of course. Is your daughter a student?
Yes. She is studying communications
at Seyang University to be a TV producer.
-Great. Let's do this. -Yes.
1 TREASURE SEUNG-MI
-Seung-mi! Seung-mi... -I can't talk.
She must be busy.
Your daughter's name is Seung-mi, right?
-Yes. -Okay.
Seung-mi,
I'll see you at the TV station when you become a producer.
You can do it.
-You too, sir. -You can do it.
Thank you. Have a nice day.
253-19 SEOMUN-DONG
Nice.
What is going on today?
-Do you have a performance? -Yes.
-To see our grandkid. -I see.
-What do you do? -I'm a cartoonist.
-You're a cartoonist? -Yes.
-Where are you going? -Itaewon.
-Yes, Itaewon.
-Where can I take you? -Seoul Station.
Seoul Station?
Thank you.
Korea's top emcee was in my cab.
-Really? -Yes.
I'm going to be on TV. I hit the big time, right?
-Did you get a picture? -A picture.
I forgot the most important thing.
AUTHORIZED
Where can I take you?
Have a nice day.
-Rock 'n' roll! -Bye.
-Thank you. -You are the best driver.
Keep the change? Keep?
Thank you, thank you.
Hey, let's have kimchi pancakes.
Nice. Kimchi pancakes!
I just made them.
Tada. Makgeolli.
Wow. Yum.
Hi, Yi-deun. It's been a while.
When can we meet?
There's something I want to talk about.
-Does it concern Yun-ho? -Yes.
Yi-deun,
have you found out who that guy is?
No, it's not that.
Tell me if you've uncovered anything
no matter how small.
I'm not sure yet. I'd rather not tell you over the phone.
I'll tell you in person.
Yes, okay.
I'll go to Seoul tomorrow. Okay.
One, two, three, four!
Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you
In English!
Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you
MY HEART SEUNG-HYEON
What? Why? Son, what got into you to call me?
Dad, do you have any money?
Money? How much?
-4000 wons. -Of course not.
Whatever I make goes toward paying off my debt.
No. I'll let you go.
Hey, what's going on? You must tell me.
Okay. But what I tell you might infuriate you,
so brace yourself.
Just spit it out.
A friend of mine made 3000 wons playing Ladder.
I get a bad feeling.
What is Ladder?
It's an online game that high school kids play.
Did you gamble?
I made a lot at first.
Where did you get the money to play?
Actually...
Mom had saved 4000 wons for Seung-mi's
second-semester tuition.
Don't tell me you lost all 4000 wons.
Dad,
I feel so bad for what I've done to Mom and Seung-mi.
I need to sell 12 000 donuts to make 4000 wons.
Your mom?
She left for Seoul to stay with Seung-mi for a few days
and talk to her about taking the semester off.
ETA?
She took the 2:30 train,
she should arrive around 4:30.
Cheongnyangni Station.
4:30?
Okay. I'll meet with your mom and take care of it.
How? You're broke.
Zip it and reflect on what you've done.
Hang up.
SINGLE ROSE 2 WONS
TRANSFER TO LINE 1
Why take the subway when your husband is a cabbie?
Husband?
What husband? We split up ages ago.
Here.
Seriously?
A rose between us?
It was free at a customer appreciation event.
Sorry.
Never mind then. I'll keep it.
That's for Seung-mi, right? Let go.
I'm not getting in your cab. Did that punk Seung-hyeon call?
-Let's talk in the cab. -Forget it.
I'll take care of the kids, so don't worry about it.
-I'm getting worked up again. -Okay, I understand.
Just let me drive you.
Please. I beg you.
Today must be my lucky day.
I've had passenger after passenger all day.
I think I've already made about three days' worth.
I'm glad that you seem to be fending for yourself.
I've been working really hard as a cabbie.
I've paid off a lot of the debt.
Although tight, I should be able
to pay it all off by next year.
I swear.
I know how big your debt is.
Don't be ridiculous.
Frankly, paying it all off is a bit of a stretch.
I think I'll be able to lease a place for me and Seung-mi.
It's weird for us to live separately
although we're both in Seoul.
That's for Seung-mi to decide.
She has been bad about taking my calls lately.
She doesn't take my calls either.
It's annoying if your parents keep calling.
Listen.
I'll send you money for the tuition
that Seung-hyeon blew, so don't worry.
But you're broke.
I have 4000 wons.
Are you going to turn to a loan shark again?
-I can't deal with that. -No.
I really have money.
I've been saving up to pay at least a semester's tuition.
I'm her dad.
-Really? -Yes.
I'd like to wire it to you right away,
but the bank is probably closed.
Canceling a savings plan requires a bank visit.
I'll wire it tomorrow morning.
I swear.
Let me be a dad for once.
Should I say hello to Seung-mi?
She works late these days, so she's not home.
Should I come back after my shift?
It has been a while since we had dinner together.
Well, I must have a serious talk with Seung-mi
about this and that.
Okay, then.
But, I'll ask her how she feels
about living with you next year.
-Really? -Yes.
And next time, when I bring Seung-hyeon,
let's have dinner together.
Yes! Yes!
Thank you. Thank you.
Honey, wait.
-Don't call me that though. -Okay, okay.
Mi-rim,
will you accept this?
Yes.
Mi-rim,
I'll wire you the money tomorrow.
Don't worry.
Hello?
Tae-gyun, this is Nam Yun-ho's mother.
I have something to ask you.
Yi-deun is supposed to meet me today,
but he's a no-show and his phone is off.
I'm worried something happened.
Do you know anything?
Yi-deun?
I just heard that Yi-deun is in the hospital.
Hospital?
Yes. The boarding house fire on the news...
Yi-deun was at that boarding house.
He's not dead but is in the ICU.
FIRE AT OLD BOARDING HOUSE 8 DEAD, 1 CRITICALLY INJURED
Of course, she's pleased.
I think she'll be placated once I pay off the debt.
Just seeing me used to make her mad,
but not today.
Sure.
Her unreliable husband
has worked hard and will pay Seung-mi's tuition.
I'd be placated too if I were her.
Speaking of which, lend me some money.
What? You don't have the 4000 wons?
4000 wons?
All my money has gone to paying off the debt.
Why did you give your word?
How could I miss out on this rare opportunity?
My head.
Ju-hwan, I really want to get back together
with Mi-rim.
Please.
My friend, I have some shame. I'm not expecting all $4,000.
You have money stashed that your wife doesn't know about.
Just loan me that.
I'm looking for Jeong Yi-deun.
He is a victim of the boarding house fire.
Jeong Yi-deun...
He is in the ICU.
Excuse me.
-Who was it that just left? -Pardon?
That doctor. Who is he?
The doctor that just left?
-Do you mean Dr. Geum Hyeok-su? -Geum Hyeok-su?
Nurse Kim, code blue for Jeong Yi-deun.
Geez.
No, no, no.
I'm sorry for asking.
Yes, yes.
Okay. Let's hang out sometime. Bye.
CASH 130, BANK 90 JU-HWAN 1,500...
TOTAL 3070 WONS
I need another 1000 wons.
Hwawol-dong, please.
My shift is almost up,
so you'll have to get another cab.
Hwawol-dong isn't far. Can't you just take me?
I've had no luck on taxi apps,
and the cabs were on their way back
for shift changes.
I'm sorry.
This is a company taxi.
-You really can't? -No. I'm very sorry.
Sir.
There's no way, right?
Should I be worried about the shift change right now?
Let's go, sir.
-Really? -We can make it quick.
-Thank you, sir. -Sure.
SEAT BELT, PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY'S HAPPINESS
Sir, you have a pleasant face.
I don't hear that often.
You're obviously a good guy.
It's easy to tell when someone is bad.
Some people are different from how they appear.
Being a cabbie, I come across lots of people,
so I can just tell.
It feels good to be complimented though.
Thank you.
And you're well-mannered despite being young.
-Sir, are you okay? -Yes, I'm fine.
Damn it!
How could you run a red light like that?
-Do you have a death wish? -Right, right.
I'm sorry about...
What a hothead.
The light was yellow.
Pardon?
The light was yellow, not red, at the intersection.
That's right.
But there wasn't an accident, so we're all good.
There was no reason for you to get cussed out.
Yes. I wanted to cuss back at him.
But it's not worth getting into a fight.
You reap what you sow.
He'll end up paying if he doesn't rein
in his temper.
-You think so? -Yes.
That's just the way of the world.
I'll get off here.
Okay.
I'll pay cash.
Keep the change.
Yes, sir.
I'm glad I picked you up.
-Take it easy. -Thank you.
-Sir, want to take me to Mukpo? -Pardon?
I'm heading down to Mukpo as soon as I pack.
KTX is sold out,
so I'm going to take a cab anyway.
I figured it would be nice for you to drive me.
You're going to take a cab to Mukpo?
There should still be buses.
I can't take buses
after a huge express bus accident.
Call it a trauma.
Isn't a long-distance fare good for you?
A long-distance fare is great, but my shift is over.
What a shame.
Can't we work something out?
I feel that I can trust you after seeing how you avoided
crashing into the motorcycle earlier.
I'm sorry about your trauma, but I can't help you.
The guy I share this cab with has a temper, and will go...
I'll pay you extra.
Extra?
Do you even know how much a trip to Mukpo costs?
It's fine. I'll pay you extra.
My goodness.
What if I asked you for a grand?
A grand would be more than double the fare.
To use it at night, I must strike a deal
with the other cabbie.
Yes, okay.
-Pardon? -I'll pay you a grand.
Will you really pay me a grand?
Should we meet here in half an hour?
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Very well.
Wow...
That piggy dream was legit!
HANGUK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
You can check the CCTV.
You'll know that I'm right if you look at the footage.
Ma'am, there is no CCTV in the ICU.
And you're not even Jeong Yi-deun's family.
Why are you being like this?
How many times do I have to tell you?
As if killing my son wasn't enough,
Geum Hyeok-su also killed Yi-deun.
Ma'am,
Jeong Yi-deun arrived with serious injuries.
He died because his condition deteriorated.
No. Geum Hyeok-su did something to him.
-Did you get a hold of Dr. Geum? -He can't be reached.
Let me call him. Give me his number.
We can't give you his personal information.
And please stop speculating.
Speculating?
No.
I know.
I know him very well.
I've looked at him more than 1000, 10 000 times.
I can recognize him just by his shadow.
-Not here, ma'am. Come with us. -What did I do?
Is this payback? Did you purposely return late?
-Yang, could we have a word? -No. You must apologize first.
Come here. Let's talk in private.
-Let go. -Okay.
How much do you make at night after company fees?
Why ask me that when you know business is slow?
Barely enough to pay the company fees.
On a good night, I make maybe 50 wons?
Right, right? I'll pay your company fees
plus another 100 wons.
But let me drive the cab tonight.
What? Isn't this a great offer?
It's a good deal for you too.
What?
Did you score a long-distance fare?
Where to? Busan?
Mukpo.
Consider it a gift from me, and take the night off.
You said your back hurt.
Okay? I have to run.
No.
If you're willing to pay me to take this fare,
common sense says the passenger will pay at least double.
Give me that passenger.
It's my shift, it's only right that I go.
And Mukpo is my home turf.
I should visit my mom's grave while I'm there.
You can visit her grave at Chuseok.
You can't go anyway. That passenger liked my driving.
He won't pay you that money.
So I was right? You're getting double.
My driving is second to none,
so I'll talk the passenger into it.
What's your problem? Why are you being unreasonable?
Think about it.
Charging double is illegal even if the passenger offered.
You'll be caught for unlawful taxi operations.
I'll give you a cut,
so let me have the passenger.
No.
Fine then.
Since it's my shift, I'm taking the cab.
You forgot this.
You know that mental illness
is cause for license revocation, right?
What did you just say?
Choi lost his license when his mental illness
came to the fore after the big accident last year.
So?
The company won't let your mental illness slide.
Are you threatening me?
You threatened me first.
You acted like a big brother when we drank.
After vowing to keep my secret,
you stab me in the back like this?
Rat me out then.
I'm good about taking my medication,
so my illness doesn't affect my job.
The company will also take issue with your gambling.
What the heck?
Are you the same person I know?
I have my reasons.
Give it.
Mr. things go awry when you act out of character.
Damn it.
I thought you were a no-show.
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
-I got it. -No, no.
I should do it. Let me.
I'm sorry.
What's in here that it's so heavy?
Just knickknacks that are important to me.
I see.
Hop in. It's rush hour, so let's hurry.
Type in Port of Mukpo.
Are you catching a ship at the Port of Mukpo?
Yes. I'm taking a ship to skip town.
-Pardon? -I'm smuggling myself out.
You must have committed a serious crime.
I should get you there quickly so you don't get caught.
Won't that make you an accomplice?
Kidding.
Right.
It says four and a half hours.
Off we go.
We'll be late. Let's go.
How important is this assemblyman
that detectives are being mobilized
to provide security?
He's a party leader, not just a regular assemblyman.
Would our chief sit back when a potential candidate
visits our jurisdiction?
But should we be providing security right now
considering our caseload?
-What did the team manager say? -Probably,
"What choice do we have but to follow orders?"
Otherwise, we can be self-employed.
The law is tough enough.
Talk about a harsh reality check.
How can we only chase ideals?
-We must accept reality. -Detective Kim.
-The doctor? -I'm sure this time.
Right before Yi-deun died,
a doctor named Geum Hyeok-su came out of the ICU
touching his ear.
It was him.
How uncanny is that?
Check the CCTV at the end of the hallway in the ICU.
Then you'll believe me.
Ma'am, how can he be the suspect
for touching his ear the same way?
Yi-deun called yesterday,
wanting to meet to tell me something
about Yun-ho's killer.
But this morning, he fell victim to a fire at a boarding house
where he doesn't know anyone.
Isn't that odd?
Ma'am,
I spent months on Yun-ho's case,
going through it with a fine-tooth comb
so that you wouldn't feel wronged.
But you know the conclusion.
There was neither a witness nor circumstantial
or material evidence indicating foul play.
Please check one more time.
Ma'am, I know it's hard,
but it's high time for you to face the facts.
-Yun-ho... -It wasn't suicide.
Sir.
Okay.
There is an assignment I must get to.
I'm sorry.
Yun-ho didn't commit suicide.
Believe me for once.
Do you have evidence that it wasn't suicide?
I'll believe you if you bring me a piece of evidence.
We see the sunset every day,
but it's especially pretty today, isn't it?
Yes, I guess it is.
No. They're fighting.
Why do people fight instead of making peace?
Even if a fight breaks out,
you'll apologize as you did earlier.
I don't apologize because I want to.
A fight only spells trouble.
It's best to just apologize.
No.
They'll only take you for a chump.
You must crush them first so they get too scared
to even think about taking you on.
Being young, you are very spirited.
Is that how you live?
To avoid being preyed on, you must prey on them first.
Wow. How brutal.
That's something I can never do.
It would be liberating to live like you.
I envy you.
Don't you want to change?
I'm fine as I am,
but people around me say I should.
When I was scammed,
my wife pleaded with me to toughen up.
I was about to be promoted
at the plant I'd worked at forever
when a junior colleague wheedled me
into starting a business together.
I trusted him.
He stabbed me in the back, front, and center.
Because you're all about being nice,
they take you for a pushover and prey on you.
There's no need to paint such a dreary picture.
My goodness. You're more cold-blooded than you look.
You talkin' to me?
You talking to me?
Sir. You fuckin' asshole.
Well, I'm the only one here.
Who the fuck do you think you're talking to?
Did I startle you?
Haven't you seen "Taxi Driver"? Robert De Niro.
The movie?
I took theater in high school,
and I practiced those lines over and over.
That came out in my time. I'm surprised you know it.
Say the lines when someone messes with you.
It's not hard.
I got nervous, thinking you were going off on me.
-Me? Why? -Yes.
-Do it now. -Yes? Okay?
Do what? Robert De Niro? How can I do that right now?
Why not? It will be practice.
-It'll be fun. -You're making me blush.
Come on. You wanted to cuss out that motorcyclist.
Yes, but...
Do it as practice.
You talking' to me?
You...
I can't.
You talking' to me?
Dang, sir.
You take me for a chump?
You take me for a chump, motherfucker?
-Why are you cussing? -Pardon?
Kidding.
Wow. You're a good actor.
-Did I do well? -Yes. Super intimidating.
WEST SEOUL
Mr. Baek?
I need you to do something.
Yes. There's someone I have my suspicions about.
Find out anything you can about him.
As soon as possible.
A resident of Hanguk University Hospital.
His name is Geum Hyeok-su.
That accident you were in must have been serious
if you're too scared to take a bus.
I'm not scared.
I just don't want to be on one again.
What happened?
TRAFFIC GUIDE CONSTRUCTION SECTION
Mister.
I thought
that was the end.
I thought I was dead
but miraculously survived.
The doctor said
that my amygdala was severely damaged.
So I looked up.
The amygdala apparently processes emotions,
especially fear, so if it's damaged,
you don't feel fear.
That's why I have no fear.
I got you, right?
Oh, my.
You're really unfazed.
You said you had no fear, so...
That was childish, right?
Although I'm old, I'm immature.
That was fun.
-Sir. -Yes?
Can I show you something fun too?
Yes, of course. Sure.
I gained a strange ability from the accident.
I don't feel pain.
What do you mean?
It doesn't hurt at all.
I feel nothing.
Hey, roll down.
Roll down!
Hey asshole, do you call that driving?
-Do you have a death wish? -Right. I'm sorry.
I got Dr. Geum Hyeok-su's number and address.
His phone is turned off.
I'll text you the info.
NO LITTERING
Your destination is nearby.
You arrived at your destination.
MR. BAEK GEUM HYEOK-SU 010-0388-2974
20 35-GIL, HWAWOL-RO
Is anyone there?
Come on out.
Hello? What's with the noise?
You can bang away all you want,
but no one is home.
Do you know who lives here?
The old lady?
She collapsed and was taken to a nursing home a while back.
I'm not looking for an old lady.
Geum Hyeok-su.
The doctor got in a cab
in front of the convenience store down the street.
He had a huge suitcase like he was traveling far.
-When? -Maybe an hour ago?
But, why you're asking?
-So, no one is home right now? -No.
But who are you?
The phone is off now.
Please leave a message...
The phone is off now...
What's wrong?
I mean,
you slashed your hand with a knife...
Geez.
Are you okay?
-Yes. -I really don't feel a thing.
Call it my unique ability.
-Ability? -Without fear or pain,
life becomes enjoyable
because you become powerful.
If I were you,
I would've killed the guy that cussed you out.
It's not hard to kill a person.
Ten cm.
If you stick it in just 10 cm toward the vocal cords,
they can't scream.
Then you slash the carotid artery, and it's over.
Stop joking around! Geez.
I'm not joking. I've killed people.
I killed one today.
This hurts.
Have you
really
killed people?
Have you
really?
No.
-You were kidding? -Of course.
I was kidding.
Thinking you were serious, I got scared.
Geez.
HWASONG
Sir, let's take a bathroom break.
I'll be outside smoking a cigarette.
-Whoa. -Sorry.
Oh, my. You're that cabbie.
Do you not look
where you're going on foot either as on the road?
I'm sorry about earlier.
I don't normally drive like that. Sorry.
You're old enough to have learned some manners.
But because you haven't, you drive a cab for a living.
Are you staring me down?
How dare you stare me down?
Man, it's one asshole after another.
Hey, poodle head, is it funny?
That's enough. I said I was sorry.
Damn it. Take your hand off me.
What if I say it's not enough?
You want to go?
I'm not trying to pick a fight.
What a wuss.
Hey cabbie,
I'll let you off the hook today,
but mind your manners from now on.
Understood?
Damn.
Okay.
Geez.
Who the fuck?
Fuck.
Geez.
Because you're all about being nice,
they take you for a pushover and prey on you.
Ten cm.
If you stick it in just 10 cm toward the vocal cords,
they can't scream.
Slash the carotid artery, and it's over.
Hello?
I'm the cabbie.
Come on out.
Anyone there?
