- Mike Thompson: Driver, is that your cab outside?
- Taxi Driver: Sorry. Engaged.
- Mike Thompson: Oh. Well, is there a rank anywhere around?
- Taxi Driver: No.
- Mike Thompson: Could I get one by telephone?
- Taxi Driver: No.
- Mike Thompson: Well, look, when you've dropped your passenger, could you come back for me?
- Taxi Driver: Sorry. Going 'ome.
- Mike Thompson: Well, thanks for being the soul of courtesy... and a great help
- Taxi Driver: Is it my fault if I happen to be booked up before your highness come along? Why don't you ask my passenger to share. You never know your luck.
- Reg Barker: That kind of a guy always kills me
- Ila Hansen: You kill so easily, Reg. You're like a kid
- Reg Barker: Well at least I'm not a mixed up one. It's no sin to get a kick out of things. For instance, I get one hell of a kick out of just watching you two kids. I've had enough sex to last me a lifetime, so what do I do, sit back in a wheelchair and rot? Nah, not me. I stay young just watching you two. Go on, Mike give her a kiss
- Ila Hansen: Reg!
- Reg Barker: Give me something to watch
- Mike Thompson: It'll be a pleasure
- [he kisses her]
- Reg Barker: [to the waiter] Doesn't that melt your stony heart?
- Headwaiter: [grimly] yes sir
- Mike Thompson: It's no good, Reg. You're obviously not his type
- Reg Barker: Oh, he's just playing hard to get, that's all
