听美剧学英语:《淘小子看世界》The Play's the Thing - 7

（单词翻译）

Dad! Oh, it's just you.
Mum, you wasted a perfectly¹ good birth on this?
Dad was supposed to be home from his meeting by now.
What meeting?
Your dad went down to talk to the regional manager about that salary rollback.
What? Why did he do that? Mum, he could lose his job! They could bust² him down a box-boy.
I thought you wanted him to talk to his boss!
Oh, wait it go, Cory. If dad gets fired, they're never gonna keep me on! You've destroyed the whole family!
I gotta go down the store and stop him. Dad! You didn't yell³ at you boss, did you?
Why would anyone think I was going to yell?
Hey, I'm the one who found Bob Williams' head splattered all over the kitchen floor.
Did you get my 5% back?
No, Eric, I didn't.
I'm gonna go cancel 5% of my dates.
Yeah, but you know I had a very good talk with Bob Williams. And Bob is very clear in my point... I'm talking to nobody.
So, how did it go?
It was not the easiest meeting I've ever had.
Dad, you didn't quit, did you?
No, I didn't. I was tempted⁴, but I didn't.
I guess you couldn't, huh. I mean with me and mom, and the rest of the family counting on you.
No, I didn't wanna let you guys down.
Wish I figured that out a couple of days ago. I did let all my guys down.
You mean when you quit your play?
Yeah, you know, being the lead in a play is a lot like being the dad.
Excuse me?
Ok, so it's not. But still, if you make a selfish mistake, the people who count on you will get hurt.
Well, maybe Mr. Feeny would let you back in the play?
Well, he did offer me a smaller part, the bad news is that I still have to wear the pantyhose. But nobody laughs at a guy who's carrying a big spear.
Oh, good, dad is here, we can start!
Not yet, Morgan.
Start what?
Oh, yeah, you know, women, they are always starting something.
Dad, I'm sorry I got in your case about you not being able to take us to New Jersey⁵ Shore. You know, between us, I've never even liked the Goofy Gulf⁶.
Oh, well, you could have fooled me, you always look like you are having a lot of fun.
Nah, no, if I never see another Goofy Gulf ball again, it's fine with me.
Oh. Well, you'll be really disappointed when you see what's in the backyard.
What?
