I am not sure why it’s called Tangerine either, but the cab driver had an air freshener hanging from his rear-view mirror that was tangerine…
OMG that’s so tangential! lol
(Tangential: hardly touching a matter; peripheral.)
Great observation, Tim!
I had the same question, googled it, and almost went loca finding it. I gave up and searched for the script instead… and then word-searched the freakin’ script — I was determined! Was it the sky? A drag queen? A street?…
The best I found was in a copy of the script I downloaded, p. 35…
“INT. RAZMIK’S CAB – DAY
Alexandra hops back in and hands him the gift — a tangerine scented air freshener.”
So, I’m with you, Tim!
Damn, Peaches’ upcoming show sounds amazing. I wish I didn’t live so far! Either way, I guess I’ll be giving Tangerine a shot soon.
Yeah Tangerine has a lot of Victoria Lamarr’s spirit (if you remember her from the podcast.) Go see it!
