Quotes 

• Antonio Scarpacci : [Brian starts Antonio's cab]  Excuse me, what do you think you're doing?

  Brian Michael Hackett : Uh... starting up the car? I thought we were gonna pick up some fares.

  Antonio Scarpacci : Just like that? Without any training?

  Brian Michael Hackett : What training? Someone yells 'Taxi', they get in, you take them somewhere, they pay, and then you declare half.

  Antonio Scarpacci : Ah ha ha. Except for that last part, you know nothing.

• Antonio Scarpacci : [Brian is practicing driving Antonio's cab]  Wrong! Pull over.

  Brian Michael Hackett : Wha-What? What did I do now?

  Antonio Scarpacci : Never offer a personal opinion about someone's life. You never know what's gonna set some maniac off!

  Brian Michael Hackett : I do now! I'm getting outta here.

• Antonio Scarpacci : As a cab driver, there are three appropriate responses to any given situation: 'Uh huh', 'Sounds great', 'You don't say.'

  Brian Michael Hackett : That's it?

  Antonio Scarpacci : Eh, if pressed you can also comment on the weather.

  [Brian starts driving again] 

  Antonio Scarpacci : Now as I was saying, the Celtics have got a pretty good shot this year, don't you think?

  Brian Michael Hackett : Mmhmm.

  Antonio Scarpacci : Very good! You see, now you're ready for your first fare.

  Brian Michael Hackett : [dryly]  Sounds great.

  Antonio Scarpacci : Hahaha! This is gonna be fun.

  Brian Michael Hackett : You don't say.
