Nick (Nick Basil), and Tony (Henry Armetta, as Tony Martin), are New York City taxicab drivers, who are constantly arguing in broken-English and Italian, who take two out-of-town school teachers on a sight-seeing tour of their fair burg. They pick them up at Pennsylvania Station and drive through Washington Square, the Bowery, Chinatown, the financial district, by City Hall and, finally, across the Brooklyn Bridge.
