[Preview] Fake Taxi

Transcript

Hey there, taxi for. .. Mark? You got it, downtown it is.

So what brings you here today? Oh, you know, usual taxi life. Driving around, meeting interesting people.

No, to be honest, I barely ever meet anyone interesting. And I don't often chat, but today's been a really boring day. Oh, I do have stories to tell.

I've seen it all. From marriage proposals, to people mistaking my taxi for a food delivery service. Yeah, I like it for the most part.

It gives me a sense of freedom. I get to learn so much about different people and their lives. Sometimes I wonder if there's more out there.

Like, my parents always hoped that I'd become a doctor or a lawyer or something, but. .. I just don't have the brains for it, to be honest.

Well, when I'm not behind the wheel, I do enjoy painting. It's my way of unwinding and expressing myself. Do you have any idea how hard it is to make a living being a full-time artist? It's never too late, you know.

You could always give it a shot. I am self-taught. Yeah, sometimes.

Sometimes I wish I picked another route. I mean, not that this was a route I picked. It just happened.

I've had dreams of travelling, seeing the world beyond these city streets, but life has its own plans, I guess. Oh, look at you. You sound like my own personal motivational speaker.

Yeah, a few times. A few countries in Europe, nothing too exotic. How about you? That sounds incredible.

I wish I had a job that allowed me to travel. And paid for it. Jokes aside, I've always wanted to experience that kind of cultural immersion.

Yeah, right. Maybe one day I'll summon the courage. You know what they say? Money comes back, but time doesn't.

But what if you don't have money in the first place? You know, it feels really natural to talk to you. It's not often that I get to connect with someone.

What? Really? So all this time you kept diverting me because you kept wanting to talk to me.

Oh, sweet. Didn't see that coming. Sneaky move.

You still have to pay for it, though. What do you mean you don't have any money? Now, come on.

This is no charity. Are you joking? No, I can't take credit cards.

Jesus Christ. Can I drive you to an ATM? Another way to pay? What do you think this is? Porn? Don't be silly.

What are you going to do, huh? You going to eat me out soon while I forget about your bill?
