Crash Cab

I found this while searching for heart images? Don't ask me how. Anyway, I watch cash cab often and I found this really funny and thought I'd share -

CRASH CAB

INT. TAXI CAB - NIGHT

BYRIN opens the door to a cab and gets inside. The driver
sitting with his head leaned up against the window, jumps
when BYRIN gets in the cab.

BEN
Uhh, where to, buddy?

GRIG
33rd and Lex, please.

BEN
You got it.

BEN begins to drive off. As he does, the roof of the cab
lights up, flashing and music plays. The driver is just as
surprised as the passenger.

BEN (CONT'D)
Oh yeah!
(Smacks forehead.)
You're in the Cash Cab. It's a TV
game show played right here in my
taxi.
(Hic.)
I'm your host, Ben Bailey, and I'll
ask you general knowledge questions
until we reach your destination.
Whaddya say, You In?

GRIG
Cool! Yeah, definitely!

BEN
Alright! For your first question,
and $50, uh...

BEN pauses and looks around the cab.

BEN (CONT'D)
What have I been drinking?

GRIG
Drinking? ... Only water, I hope.

BEN
Sorry - wrong answer!

A red 'x' flashes across the screen.

BEN (CONT'D)
And your first strike. Two more of
those and you'll have to get out
and walk!

BEN turns around to face GRIG.

BEN (CONT'D)
The correct answer, of course, is
Ben's Bailey's.
(Chuckles.)

The cab swerves off the road and a scream is heard as a
pedestrian thuds across the hood and windshield of the car.

GRIG
Oh, Jesus Christ! Oh, oh my god!

BEN
Uh oh.

GRIG
Oh my god, dude, you just hit that
woman! Pull over, we have to help
her!

BEN
Oh jeez. Okay, well ... listen.

GRIG
What!?

BEN
If I get another DUI, I'll lose my
license. I'll lose my job. Please,
you gotta help me. I'll give you
$2000 if you can keep this to
yourself...
And answer the following question:
In what century was the Brooklyn
Bridge built?

GRIG
(Still frantic and angry.)
I don't know. The 1800's?

The lights flash and music plays.

BEN
Correct! You win $2000 and we've
reached your destination!

GRIG starts laughing, clapping his hands, and bouncing around
the car!

GRIG
$2000! Oh my god, I can't believe I
won!

CUT TO:

GRIG getting out of the cab and jumping up and down on the
streets with a fistful of cash.

FADE TO BLACK.
