美国情人

或许我会再写一篇 重新申请
Maybe I’ll write something else and resubmit,
我们刚才跳舞的时候真是开心啊
That was really fun when we were dancing,
是啊 我需要把那些
Yeah, I need to cut
负能量的人全部踢出自己的生活
all the negative people out of my life.
我的成长环境不是那样的
I just wasn’t brought up that way,
谢谢你 布鲁克
Thank you, Brooke.
不用谢 崔茜小妹
You’re welcome, Baby Tracy,
亲爱的 我想死你了
My sweetheart, I miss you so much!
等不及你回家来看我买♥♥的新椅子了
I can’t wait for you to see the chairs I picked out!
我们马上就开始装♥修♥了 好激动
We start renovation so soon! It’s so exciting.
我一直会去餐馆那边
I’ve been going there
坐在一堆杂物中间 真是爱死了
just to sit in the mess. I love it so much’
是吧
Right?
你看过房♥契了吗 感觉有四百页
Did you see the lease? It’s like 400 pages.
真希望你快点回家啊…
I wish you could just come home already…
这样我就能在新餐馆里帮你吹啦
so I could suck your dick in our new restaurant
能煮一下咖啡吗
Can you start the coffee, please?
噢 我不会用
Oh, I don’t know how.
瞎说 别这么没用
Yes, you do. Don’t be incompetent,
你花两秒钟时间研究一下咖啡机
If you spent two seconds with a coffee maker,
就会了
you’d figure it out,
嗨 没 我还在听
Hi. No, I’m here.
你去哪
Where are you going?
天 去公用的厕所啊 想看么
Duh! Communal bathroom. Do you wanna watch?
是个小姑娘
It’s some girl,
-对不起 你生我的气了 -没有
-Sorry, are you mad at me? -No!
包括我有四个投资人
We have four investors, including me.
我是主投资方
I’m what you call a principal investor,
斯塔夫罗斯投了钱在我的股份里…
Stavros is putting in my share…
但我坚持要把这份钱先算我的…
but I insisted that it be my assets on the line…
因为我想要他知道 这餐馆与我本人切实相关
“because I want him to know I have skin in the game.”
当然等我们开始盈利之后我会还给他的
I’ll pay him back, of course, once we start making a profit,
我小时候从不去餐馆吃饭
We never went to restaurants growing up,
我们家不去的
ll wasn’t pan of our lives.
这话说得我可不爱听啊
That’s a shitty thing to say to me.
我不是这个意思…我知道人们肯定会光顾你的餐馆
I didn’t mean… I know people will come to yours.
我有个奇怪的想法
It’s so weird to think
我见到的每一家餐馆…
that every restaurant I see is the result…
都是店主之前想
of a person going,
“我想开一间餐馆”之后的结果
“I think I want to start a restaurant.”
这没什么奇怪的 这是重中之重
No, that’s not weird, That’s everything.
你在…你在干嘛
What are you… What are you doing?
其实…我在记下自己刚才说的话…
Actually… I’m writing down what I said…
你自己给自己做语录啊
You’re noting yourself?
是啊 算是吧
Yeah, I guess so.
我也注意到过自己说的话
I’ve noticed something about myself
可以在小说中很好地塑造人物
that would make a good character in a story.
是吗
Oh, yeah?
是
Yeah.
但我会自己留着 以免以后用到
But I’m gonna save it in case I want to use it
在自己写的东西里
in something that I write.
击个掌 妹子 昨晚真过瘾
High five, sister. That was an amazing night.
是啊 这辈子最开心的一晚
Yeah, it Was. Best of my life,
我得走了
I gotta go,
她说什么了
What did she say?
“他是我讨厌的那种人…”
“He’s one of those people that I hate…”
“但我又很爱他”
“except that I’m in love with him.”
拜托 闭嘴
Shut up, please.
麦朵•德利吉这个人是这样
Meadow DeRiggi lived
如果一个年轻人想充实地度过青春…
exactly how a young woman should live…
她的生活就是范本
who wants to spend her youth well.
她涉猎广泛 也一事无成
She did everything and nothing”.
在所有事情上花的时间
And spent time.
都是有目的的
Purposefully.
她在台上和乐队合唱 认识每一个人
She sang with the band and knew everyone
不亏欠任何人
and didn’t owe anyone anything;.
就算欠了她也还不起
And couldn’t pay up, even if she did.
她的美貌并不多见…
Her beauty was that rare kind…
会让你更想做自己
that made you want to look more like yourself
而不是单纯地像她一样
and not tike her.
和麦朵在一起
Being around Meadow
就像身处纽约市
was like being in New York City.
她让你想要找到自己的生活 而不是逃避
It made you want to find life, not hide from it.
布鲁克
Brooke!
噢
“Oh.”
没关系
It’s okay,
你昨晚在哪 收到我的短♥信♥吗
Where were you last night? Did you get my text?
什么 你给她发短♥信♥了
You text her? You texted her?
关于作业的
About work.
我去下城看了一个
I went to check out this downtown band
下城风格的乐队
at this downtown bar,
-你和谁一起去的 -就我自己
-Who were you with? -Myself.
当时你说你在查分数啊
When you said you were checking out the scores,
原来你在给她发短♥信♥吗 情♥色♥短♥信♥
were you texting her? Are you sexting?
是我姐姐带我去的
It was this place my sister showed me.
你又没有姐姐
You don’t have a sister,
我有 或者说马上就有了 等我妈感恩节结婚以后
I do. Or I will, when my mom gets married at Thanksgiving.
《美国女主人》作者 崔茜·费什科
你干嘛不直接给自己的蛋拍张照片发给她
Why don’t you just text her a picture of your balls?
妮可
Nicolette!
这是什么
What’s that?
我新写的一篇小说
It’s this new story I wrote.
我要重新申请文学社
I’m gonna resubmit to the Lit Society.
等等 你已经重新写好一篇了
Wait, you wrote another one already?
-还拿半透明纸打印的 -你想看的话可以拿去
-You printed it on onionskin? -You can read it if you want.
我还多印了一份
I have an extra copy,
好 我会…告诉你我的意见
Okay. I’d… totally give you notes,
不 我不需要别人的意见
No, I don’t want notes.
不过我想过了
But I thought about it
对你的小说我的确有几点建议
and I actually do have notes for you,
哦 说
Uh, sure.
你的文章就像你在模仿一个
You write like you’re imitating someone
自♥由♥又野性的人…
who is free and wild…
这感觉很奇怪 因为你完全不是这种人…
and it is so weird, because you aren’t at all…
这让我觉得很不舒服
and it made me uncomfortable.
我觉得会让每个读者都感觉不舒服
And I think it would make everyone uncomfortable.
还有 别强装幽默了
And, also, stop trying to be funny,
因为你压根不搞笑
because you’re not funny,
并且
“And.”
只会增加尴尬度
it just adds to the awkwardness.
噢还有 完全可以轻松删掉百分之30
Oh, and it could also be, like, 30% shorter, easy.
好吧
Okay.
谢了
Thanks.
嘿 小崔茜
Hey, Baby may!
现在这一切都是关于你们的
This is ail about you, right now.
你们要尽可能地使出全力
And you’re giving it as much as you’ve got,
发掘自己的内心…
so reach inside you…
不管能从内心发掘出什么
and whatever it is inside of you,
都反映到这辆单车上来
you put it on the bike.
明白我说的吗
You feel me?
一个人做事情的方法体现在方方面面
How you do anything is how you do everything,
所以放手去做吧
so leave it on the floor.
你骑得很不错
You did great.
我感觉刚在自己的衣服里游完泳
I feel like I just went swimming in my clothes.
-很高兴你来了 -是吗
-I’m glad you came. -You are?
靠 我要换衣服了 约了人见面
Shit, I’ve gotta change, I’ve got a meeting.
谢了 布鲁克
Thanks, Brooke!
不用谢 亲爱的
You’re welcome, honey!
天 这个铅笔裙太紧了
God, I am packed into this pencil skin,
我看上去怎么样
How do I look?
很美
