Ronnie: Gnarly. 好恶心。

 

Kale: How did you get my phone? This is a big violation into my privacy. I could turn you in for this. So, why’d your parents drag you to the burbs (美俚＝ suburb), anyway?

Ashley: well, I guess my mom wanted to keep my dad on a shorter leash. City life had its temptations. But my mum pretty much cries just as much as she always did, and my dad doesn’t care more than ever. What’s your issue (比problem更常用) ?

Ashley: I told her my parents were going out of town, and one thing led to another. 结果事情越闹越大了。

Kale: So now you got the whole jock and bimbo population showing up? 这么说镇上的狗男女都要去了？I just didn’t know you would conform so fast but…

 

Tactical error 战术错误

 

Kale: Okay, just relax, okay? That’s 60 gigs of my life. 那有60G呢，是我的命根子。Don’t keep looking up at me, trying to get a rise out of me. It’s unnecessary. 惹毛我

Ashley Carlson: what have you been keeping tabs on, kale? 你在监视什么，凯尔？

Kale: you are reading substantial books. 你看的是真正有价值的书。You do this thing where, it’s like an OCD thing, but it’s not.你做的这件事，有点像强迫症发作，但其实不是。Whenever you leave your room, you grab the doorknob, and you turn, you are getting ready to leave, but you don’t, you stop, and you back up, you turn to the mirror, and you stare at yourself. But it is not like, “I am so hot” type of stare, it is “who am I?”

Ronnie: why you sound so agitated? 你怎么这么慌张？

Robert: Don’t deny. I’m not upset, and quite frankly, I don’t even want to know why. I just would like you to know that I am a little on the shy side. So, short of all this sneaking around in some kind of hip, new-aged way of coming on to a somewhat older man, I really feel obliged to tell you that I rather enjoy my privacy. You see, the world is … it’s in a heightened state of paranoia. I tend to think that someone as intelligent and attractive as you doesn’t need to be wasting her time stoking the fire. So, feel free to pass that along if you’d like. He scared the hell out of you. (他吓坏你了) That’s a grown man.

Ronnie: Oh, man, she has got that Stockholm thing. 哦，哥们，她得了斯德哥尔摩综合症。You know, where the hostage falls for the hostage taker.

Kale: How is that a nice or charming guy?

Ashley: this is gone away too far. 太过火了点。

01:11:00

Kale: I’m just thinking out loud (不断地琢磨，loud ad. 不断地). Call me back.

Ronnie: Are you sure I’m clear. Oh, man. It reeks in here. What is the smell? Like the corpse of a rotting hottie. This is definitely the source of the stink. Oh, Jesus. This is nasty. That was close (好险).

Kale ran madly to Turner’s house to save Ronnie. Of course, he crossed the line, and the police come in a minute.

Robert: it has been a hell of a week.

Kale: but you found time to fix your fender, though, right?

Robert: I had to get it out of storage for the auto show. I needed it in pristine condition (我需要它保持原始状态).

Officer: It was his second violation, Mrs. Brecht. He is due in court at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow.

Kale’s mom: can he press charges? 他可以起诉吗？

Officer: and so, yes. Mr. Turner can file charges if he chooses.

Mum: I can’t believe this.

Kale: I can’t believe you’re actually buying this guy’s bullshit.

Mum: You are breaking my heart, Kale. (你让我的心都碎了，凯尔。)

 

Kale’s mum plan to go to Turner’s home to apologize.

Kale: Oh, shit. What is the hell are you doing, mum? 妈妈，你在干什么啊？

Ronnie: Dude (= buddy), did you want me to go up to the cops and be like, “Oh, hey, you know what, officer? He’s right. I was in his house. I went in there to get the phone out of the car, that I broke into earlier today.” All I could think of was “I don’t want to go to jail.” Ok, ok. That is a bad joke. I just wasn’t thinking straight.

Kale: You bastard. 混帐东西

Ronnie: you know what? Then before they confiscate this evidence, you should come over here and peep this. I’m serious, man. I got my whole great escape on video. I gotta take a piss, check this out.

 

Robert: all I want is to live in peace, which is why we gotta keep the spotlight on you. You are the troubled neighborhood boy who cried wolf (你是邻居家的麻烦孩子，已经喊过狼来了). But now, you are really going to snap (你真的发疯了). First, you kill your buddy, because he calls your girlfriend out behind you. Then let your mum come here, so you can slit her throat, because she just wouldn’t stop blaming you for killing your dad.

The murder is sick. He almost freaked our hero out.

 

Scissor

 

Kale: All right, we’ve gotta get cross the line. Get ready to run. I gotta get my mom. You make sure the cops are coming, okay?

 

Officer: Yeah, I realize your shift is over. But that kid just hopped the fence again. You want first dibs.

Police: Yeah, yeah. I will take care of it.

Officer: Roger, over.

1:36:50

Officer: I think you’re the first one to ever get one of these things taken off early for good behavior. You got a problem with it, call somebody who cares.

 

Ashley: So-much for being spatially challenged.

Kale: Does it scare you?

 

Kale: We are calling to check up on our programming subscriber. Skin flicks (露点电影), ma’am. Well, we see that you’re currently accessing it, ma’am, as we speak.

That is the first strike. Well, yeah. It’s an ongoing offensive against neighborhood evil. I’m very dedicated.
