Betty the taxi driver: First we see the sights, then let's come to my place Frank: Oh no, then we will have to go looking for Davey's girl Betty: No, then up to my place. Where do you want to go first? Frank: Well, my grandpa told me, Chip my boy, there'll come a time when you leave home, and if you should ever see New York, be sure to see the Hippodrome. Betty: The Hippodrome! Frank: Yeah, the Hippodrome Betty: Did I hear right? Did you say the Hippodrome? Frank Yes, you heard me right, yes, I said the Hippo. Betty: (applies the brakes) Frank: Hey what did you stop for? Betty: It ain't there any more. They tore it down you know a dozen years ago. Frank: Oh, I wanted to see that Hippodrome. Betty: Hey, what year is that guide book anyway? Frank: Oh, 1905. Betty: 19 hundred and 5, no wonder. Don't you realize that a big city like this changes all the time? But there's one thing that doesn't change, kid. Come up to my place. Frank: No. My grandpa saw the girly show that will hold me hot and curly, and told me the hottest show in town is of the Floradora Girl. Betty: Floradora Girl! Frank:Yes, the Floradora Girl.
