On the Town Page #2

a coin in a box.

Out of the way.

We're takin' a picture here.

Why don't we get one of these sailors

in the picture? Stand here.

Miss Smith, give him the dime.

You put the fare in the box for her.

Hey, you're... Aren't you Miss Turnstiles?

- How did you know?

- I saw your picture in the subway and...

- You mean you saw my picture at...

- Yeah.

Oh, that.

I'm terribly flattered you liked it

well enough to take it with you.

- How's that, Max?

- Fine.

Drop the dime in the box, Sailor. Hold it.

That's all, Miss Smith. Thanks, Sailor.

We're proud of our boys.

Thanks. I'm terribly late now.

I'll have to run.

Goodbye, Sailor.

Thanks for posing with me.

Hey, wait!

- We'll head her off at the next station.

- What?

In a cab.

Why do you always have to run after girls?

I'll tell you when your voice changes,

Junior.

Hey, Oz, come on.

Taxi. Taxi.

Sorry. No more fares today.

I'm turning in the cab. It's overdue.

Please, mister.

Hey! He's a girl!

What're you doing driving a cab?

The war's over.

I never give up anything I like. Get in.

- The subway station.

- It's right there. You too weak to walk it?

No, the next one, uptown.

All right, but only if he gets up front.

All right, Chip. Get up there.

- Get in there.

- No.

Come on. Get going.

- What's wrong with you?

- What's got into you?

I met her. I ran right into her. You said

it couldn't happen and I ran into her.

What became of the line of jive

that "mows 'em down"?

I didn't have a chance. Just watch me

when we catch up with her.

Lady, faster, please.

Yeah, come on, lady.

For you, anything. What's your name?

Chip.

Chip, huh? Bet you can't guess mine.

There are over two million

girl's names registered...

All right, you win. It's Esterhazy.

Brunhilde Esterhazy.

Pleased to meet you.

- Why don't you come up to my place?

- What?

Look, Chip, I've been waitin' for you

all my life.

I knew you the minute I saw you.

You're for me.

I like your face, it's open,

you know what I mean? Nothin' in it.

The kind of a face I could fall into.

- Kiss me.

- Please, Miss Esterhazy.

Just call me Hildy. Why don't you ditch

these guys and come up to my place?

Lady, I hardly know you.

I've only got one day in town.

- I want to see all the famous landmarks.

- Stick with me, kid, I'll show you plenty.

Hey, here it is.

Oh, yeah, Columbus Circle.

- Hey, Esterhazy, what're you doin' here?

- Hello, Spud. What's on your tiny mind?

Don't sweet-talk me.

This cab is due back in the garage.

Bixby's waitin' to take it out.

Get in there or I'll report you.

Okay. Okay.

We must have just missed the train.

Taxi. Taxi. Taxi.

I'll bet we'll find dozens of glamour girls
