Lady Macbeth, we're sitting here and the light's green. Leave the seats. You no longer have the cleanest cab in La-La Land. You gotta live with that. Focus on the job. Drive. 7565 Fountain. You know it?
West Hollywood.
How long you figure?
I don't know, man, 17 minutes. Why? Oh, no. No, no, no. Hold on, man.
I told you we had other stops to make tonight.
You said you had to go and visit some friends.
Well, they're somebody's friends. You drive a cab, I make my rounds, you might make it through the night, come out 700 bucks ahead.
I'm not trying to piss you off, but I can't do this. I can't drive you while you go around killing people. It ain't my job.
Tonight it is.
Look, you don't get it. I mean it. I mean it. I'm not up for this.
Okay, hey, hey, hey. You're stressed. I understand that. Now, you just keep breathing and stay calm. Okay, look, here's the deal. Man, you were gonna drive me around tonight, never be the wiser, but El Gordo got in front of a window, did his high dive, we're into Plan B. Still breathing? Now we gotta make the best of it, improvise, adapt to the environment, Darwin, shit happens, I Ching, whatever man, we gotta roll with it.
I Ching? What are you talking about, man? You threw a man out of a window.
I didn't throw him. He fell.
Well what did he do to you?
What?
What did he do to you?
Nothing. I only met him tonight.
You just met him once and you killed him like that?
What? I should only kill people after I get to know them? Max, six billion people on the planet, you're getting bent out of shape cause of one fat guy.
Well, who was he?
What do you care? Have you ever heard of Rwanda?
Yes, I know Rwanda.
Well, tens of thousands killed before sundown. Nobody's killed people that fast since Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Did you bat an eye, Max?
What?
Did you join Amnesty International, Oxfam, Save the Whales, Greenpeace, or something? No. I off one fat Angelino and you throw a hissy fit.
Man, I don't know any Rwandans.
You don't know the guy in the trunk, either. Okay, if it makes you feel any better, he was a criminal involved in a continuing criminal enterprise.
What are you doing? You just taking out the garbage?
Yeah, something like that.
