You double park and wait for your next passenger to slide into the back seat. He looks at you, like he appreciates you and your taxi. He gives you his address. You start driving.* A few words are exchanged...the weather, taxes, traffic. Then...you can tell it's coming...the inevitable conversation about the killer. Some bits of information, rumours, things overheard. You make a mental note of what you've heard... Who knows? It might come in handy... [NEW CLUE] Your passenger doesn't make a sound for the next few minutes of the trip. It doesn't bother you. You have enough on your mind... Your investigation... the Judge... Busset... You're overcome with a craving to smoke. You nod slowly and glance at your passenger. Calm and still, he seems far away.
« Everything ok? »
« Having a good evening? »
« Cold as hell out, huh? »
(Say nothing.)

SONNY: "Yes. Very good."
SONNY: "Yes. You're right. It is really cold out."

He slowly turns his head toward you and gives you an odd look... like he is disappointed you're talking to him. He watches you closely for another minute and turns back to look out the window. You keep your eyes on the road... The silence becomes heavy. All of a sudden, you feel a strange sense of camaraderie with your passenger. You look at him quickly in the rearview mirror. He doesn't look familiar at all and yet, it's like you know him. A second later, an outside light shines on his face at a weird angle. It looks like he's smiling. A few seconds later, you drive down his street. He straightens up a bit. You park in front of the number he gave you. He pays his fare without a word. The door opens slowly and he smiles at you... you can tell it comes from the bottom of his heart despite how uptight he is.
SONNY: "You're really a swell guy."
You weren't expecting that... By the time you collect your thoughts, your passenger is already far away. He disappears into a building. A moment goes by before you turn the key in the ignition.
