The story so far
Everything you need before watchingLover's-lane couples do not match a lone cab driver on Washington Street—he is breaking his own pattern. A caller wants Melvin Belli on the morning show. In the back seat Belli asks if the glass is bulletproof, while the glove box holds animal crackers, and the studio lot is already jammed with broadcast vans.
