欢迎归来 伙计们

有人曾说过
As somebody once said…
这两样东西有着天壤之别 失败
there’s a difference between a failure…
和惨败
anda fiasco.
小心脑袋
Watch your head.
我很好
I’m fine.
失败只不过是因为成功没有露面
A failure is simply the non-presence of success.

任何傻瓜都会失败
Any fool can accomplish failure.
我很好
I’m fine.
我很好
I’m fine.
他来这里干什么
What the hell’s he doing here?
但是惨败
But a fiasco…
惨败是带有神话色彩的灾难
A fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.
惨败是讲给别人听的故事
A fiasco is a folktale told to others…
让他人暗自庆幸
that makes other people feel more alive…
因为灾难没落在他头上
because it didn’t happen to them.
我很好
I’m fine.
我很好
I’m fine.

鞋不只是鞋
A shoe is notjust a shoe.
它把我们与大地相连
It connects us to the Earth.
好鞋子可以带着我们走四方
The right shoe can transport us…
让我们相信我们可以做得更好
make us believe we are capable of more.
但是要实现伟大的目标需要牺牲
But there are sacrifices for a goal like pure greatness.
比如生日或是去年圣诞和我家人团聚的机会
Like birthdays or last Christmas with my family.
因我们的主基♥督♥ 阿们
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
开吃吧 别取笑我的厨艺
Dig in. And no making fun of my cooking.

-This must be homemade. -Oh, Dad.
然而我们在麦克力有时会庆祝一些古怪的东西
Though we sometimes celebrate odd things at Mercury…

当然橡胶并不是他们发明的 不过这是别话
Which they didn’t, of course. But that’s beside the point.

对了 这两扇珍贵的门
And yes, the two treasured doors…
是菲尔在突尼斯度假时从一所教堂买♥♥来的

别这样
Don’t do that.
不就是钱吗
It’s only money.
美国人的心理一片混乱 德鲁 而我们失策了
The American psyche is in turmoil, Drew, and we have miscalculated.
对不起
I’m sorry.
对这种情况我没有制订过规定

他们告诉我说我们将要损失

9亿7千2百万

I am…
对于失败没有准备
ill-equipped in the philosophies of failure.
跟我来 德鲁

但是
but…
我要怎么跟你说 才能让9亿7千2百万的概念
How do I make the concept of$972,000,000…
对你更形象
more real to you?

和退货

以至于我收到了这样的条子
Enough to cause this memo…
DCS公♥司♥的CEO 杰弗里·巴洛写来的
from Jeffrey Barlow, CEO of DCS.
这一曾经倍受期待的产品
This once highly-anticipated product…
可能会让整一代人重新开始赤脚
