Prison Break 《越狱》(精讲之六)
影片对白
Nick: We need to focus on the real question. Who wanted Terrence Steadman dead?
Veronica: The call came from DC. What does that tell you?
Nick: You got to think past the government, though. Anybody could be here. A business partner, a rival...
Veronica: Before Steadman was killed, EcoField introduced a prototype electric engine at the techno conference. $60 barrels of oil would be obsolete if that thing ever hit the mainstream.
Nick: Could be oil, oil companies...
Veronica: Suppliers, consumers, everything in between.
Nick: Or the government of an oil-based economy...like the United States.
Stewardess: Can I take your soda?
Nick: Sure. Thank you.
Stewardess: Thank you.
Nick: At any rate, we land, we meet my guy, and even if we don't find the person who tipped off the cops, we find his phone. The paper trail begins.
Anchorperson: The National Guard responded after Illinois Governor Frank Tancredi declared a state of emergency shortly after 3:00 p.m.
Lisa: Come on, honey. It's time to go.
L. J.: Hold on. Hold on.
Anchorperson: No word on what caused the initial disturbance, but sources with the...
Lisa: That's not Fox River, is it?
L. J.: What are you doing?
Lisa: We have to go. Come on.
L. J.: No, Dad might be in trouble.
Lisa: Look, your father's already in trouble. There's nothing we can do about it. Just don't make a scene, okay? He gets very uncomfortable with this thing. Just... Let's just go, okay?
L. J.: Oh, God forbid, man!
Lisa: Please!
L. J.: We're just talking about my old man here and his life. If-if that's all right with you.
Adrian: Leave me out of this.
L. J.: I am leaving you out of it. I left you out of it the day I met you.
Lisa: Okay, L.J.
L. J.: Because nothing in her life or mine has anything to do with you.
Adrian: I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.
L. J.: Oh, yeah? Or what?
Adrian: You see, this is what I'm talking about. This is the kind of crap I have to deal with.
Lisa: Just let me handle it!
L. J.: The kind of crap you have to deal with?
Lisa: L.J., do you want to talk...
L. J.: Oh! You got no clue, do you?
Lisa: Honey, look.
L. J.: Leave me alone! Get off me!
Adrian: What the hell are you doing? You don't talk to her like that.
Lisa: Stop it! Stop! Go upstairs, L.J., now! Go!
L. J.: You love that man?
Lisa: Just go.
L. J.: You love that man.
Lisa: Do what I say.
妙语佳句，活学活用
1. At any rate
意思是“不管怎样;至少”，做“不管怎样”解时，用来解释或支持前文的话，相当于in any event，in any case，anyhow，例如：I think they're asleep; at any rate, they're quiet.
做“至少”解时，相当于at least，例如：It was a mediocre film, but at any rate there was one outstanding individual performance.
2. Tip off
在口语中的意思是“Supply with secret or private information; also, warn or alert”，例如：
The broker often tipped her off about stocks about to go down in price.
They were tipped off and left the country before the police could catch them.
Tip off 还可以表示“透露内部信息，给出内行人的建议”，例如：He tipped off the police about the terrorist plot.
3. Paper trail
这是一个法律术语，意思是“the documentary evidence of one's actions”，可以是手写的，也可以是打印的，包括有书面档案、文档、记录等等，我们来看几个例子，体会一下这个术语的含义：
Judges leave a paper trail, a track record of opinions that tell, literally, where they are coming from.
This paper trail consisted mainly of electronically stored information.
4. Make a scene
这个片语也写作create a scene，意为“make a public disturbance or excited emotional display(当众吵闹或兴奋得大喊大叫等)”，例如：Joan made a scene when the restaurant lost her dinner reservation.
5. You got no clue.
意思是：You have no idea. |
