At his demand, it is Betsy (Cybill Shepherd who also played in Clair de Lune and The Last Session) who takes his request, and very quickly we realize that he is not there for the potential future president, but rather to ask Betsy to have coffee with him, which she ends up agreeing to after a big speech from Travis.

It's amazing that Travis starts out so well with Betsy and then just totally bombs it like no one else in history.

[CollectorsFix]

I haven't watched the rest of the movie, but I'm sure Travis took her to a nice dinner and a movie and then lived happily ever after.

[claytonmccoy]

Lmao I love how he finds it necessary to confirm she means 4 *PM* and not 4 *AM*

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

He nailed asking her then Travis takes her to the "dirty movie" for the date. still makes me laugh after all these years

[pedobear]

The way she says "why" and smiles is incredibly attractive.

[redrobotmonkey]

I love how many times the other dude has to circle around them.

[h.bstudio]

the confidencie of travis make this scene so good.

[bobbyricigliano]

The character that De Niro shooed away to chat up Betsy was loosely based on my life.

[ninjachannel]

Cybill Shepherd somehow channels every girl you've ever had a crush on effortlessly.

[Mas_Tun]

When she said "what do you think of Palantine?" I was hoping he'd respond "he's a good looking guy, but I'd still rather take you out"

[brynleyjones]

You have to admit, his charisma in this scene is off the charts for a cold approach.

[bruno]

There's no better feeling in the world when a girl you really likes says ''yes'' to your little date or dinner :)

[AW-krfl]

Travis took a massive risk with this approach but Betsy seemed to like it. She was attracted to him and probably liked his directness and honesty. Such a shame what happened on their second date. It all came crashing down due to Travis’ total obliviousness to his own hypocrisy and social norms. They would’ve made a good couple and it would’ve saved Travis’ life.

[el_mal_de_ojo]

Oh man, Cybill Shepherd is angelic in this film, absolutely gorgeous - almost TOO beautiful.

[Akhillees]

Unless you're good looking, telling a girl you just met that she looks like a lonely person isn't going to go well

[NewWaveEnthusiast]

How can a man have so much confidence in asking a girl out but not take the time to think of where to take her? It's enthralling lol!

[MsWu]

1:08 She leans back hearing De Niro says he drives a taxi. Small movement shows her reaction to that. Great acting.

[GeddyRC]

I love how Travis nails asking her out and then the rest of the movie is a comedy of errors that spirals out of control.

Lesson to the kids out there watching: don't take a lady friend to a porno theater. It's just not a good idea.

[riquelmeone]

I always thought and still think that Cybill Shepherd in this movie is the definition of beauty.
And how cool was Travis asking Betsy out and intimidating that other guy.

[fergusmckee]

The camera work here is so impressive. See how travis slowly zooms out as he goes into his ‘true self’, implying his alienation. The framing is static on Betsy implying she is unsure or ambivalent . She is flattered to be asked out, but Travis is painted as a fish out of water.
