Line 4:
A character, on a city street, is trying to hail a cab. No matter how many times they yell, "Hey, taxi!", nothing stops for them.
 
This can be played for comedy, such as trying to show a country-bumpkin just how tough the big city can be. It can be played for a little bit of drama, if the lack of a taxi will slow the hero down in their [[RaceforRace For Your Love|quest]]. Or it can be played seriously. The inability of a black man to catch a taxi is a too-frequent [[Real Life]] occurrence.
