Expectant Father: Are you a taxi?
Charlie Hawkins: No.
[pointing at the vehicle]
Charlie Hawkins: *This* is a taxi.
[pointing at himself]
Charlie Hawkins: *I'm* a driver.
[pointing at Pintpot]
Charlie Hawkins: *He's* a learner.
[pointing at the expectant father]
Charlie Hawkins: And *you're* a twit. Now get out of the way, I'm in a hurry.
Expectant Father: No, no, you must help me. It's my wife - she's going to have a baby.
Charlie Hawkins: And if I don't get home by seven, mine's gonna have a fit.

Charlie Hawkins: When you get to be a cab driver you cut yourself right off from the rest of the human race. Everybody's got it in for you and nobody loves you. In no time at all you find that you're about as popular as a wickerwork seat in a nudist camp, and you know what sort of impression that makes on people.

Peggy Hawkins: Oh, Charlie! Oh, it's lovely!
Charlie Hawkins: I'll say it is. Genuine mammoth, that is.
Peggy Hawkins: Oh, don't be silly, Charlie.
Charlie Hawkins: Straight up, it said so on the shop window: "Mammoth fur sale."

Peggy Hawkins: Charlie, please, I know what you're thinking.
