EPISODE RECAP

0 Reviews 16 Votes

Tony's new girlfriend is a fellow cabbie named Denise. Denise is attractive and likable, not to mention an overachieving cab driver which makes her popular with Louie, but she's getting very clingy toward Tony and is popping pills constantly.

Tony attempts to break up with her, but she simply refuses to let him dump her, a fatal attraction of sorts. Tony begs Louie to fire her, citing her drug addiction, but Louie refuses. The other cabbies, showing their support of Tony, threaten to quit if he doesn't let her go. Louie fires her, but Denise tells Tony that he's still not rid of her that easily.

As a last ditch effort, Tony tells her that he's already seeing someone else-- Louie. Louie, to his dismay, is urged on by the other cabbies to play along and Denise finally leaves when she sees to what lengths Tony will go to get rid of her.
