《绝望的主妇》精讲68

（单词翻译）

苏珊：那你没看标题吗？"谋杀被捕" 这几个字没把你吓住吗？

贝斯：我承认这标题让我犹豫了一阵子，但后来我们开始通信，我发现他其实是一个非常优秀的男人。

Beth: When I was 8, daddy left mama, and we were pretty much alone. Most of my friends were either stuffed¹ or plastic. Of course, there were always mama's boyfriends, But as soon as I'd learn their names, Mama would kick them out, and there be a new toothbrush in the bathroom. Uh, l-let me know if I'm sharing too much.

Susan: No. Not at all. Keep pouring the chardonnay. She's cracking like an egg.

Renee: Okay, quarter ante.

Gaby: So, beth, how did you and Paul meet anyway?

Beth: Oh, I don't wanna bore you.

Lenette: We won't be bored. More chardonnay?

Beth: Mm. Well... I saw his picture in the paper during his trial, and there was just something about those eyes that spoke² to me.

Susan: What about the headline? "Arrested for murder"-- that didn't speak to you?

Beth: I'll admit that gave me pause. But then we started corresponding³, and I discovered What a wonderful man Paul really is.

Renee: Bree, let's forget about hittin' the clubs tomorrow night. Clearly, all the best guys are on death row.

Beth: But, hey, you can't help who you fall in love with, right? And paul's a real lady-killer. We--we always fogged up the plexiglas with that one.

Bree: Well, it's good that you can laugh about it.

Beth: The thing is, in my heart, I always knew he was innocent⁴, and I was right. Well, he is.

Lynette: Yeah, so let's play cards.

贝斯：我八岁的时候，我爸离开了我妈，我们母子就相依为命了。我的大部分朋友，要么呆板要么虚伪。当然了，还有妈妈的男朋友们，不过还没等我记住他们的名字，我妈就把他们蹬了，然后浴室里又会出现一把新的牙刷。我是不是说得太多了？

苏珊：一点也不会，多倒点白葡萄酒，她的话匣子全开了。

蕾内：好了，我加25。

加比：贝丝，你和保罗是怎么认识的？

贝斯：这事你们听了会觉得无聊的。

丽奈特：我们不会的，还要葡萄酒吗？

贝斯：好。在他被审期间，我在报纸上看到他的照片，我看着他那双眼睛，好像在对我诉说着什么。

苏珊：那你没看标题吗？"谋杀被捕" 这几个字没把你吓住吗？

贝斯：我承认这标题让我犹豫了一阵子，但后来我们开始通信，我发现他其实是一个非常优秀的男人。

蕾内：布里，别指望明晚去夜总会有所斩获了。看来好男人都在死囚牢里关着呢！

贝斯：但是你爱上一个人，是控制不住的，对吧？而且保罗真的很有女人缘[双关 也可理解为"杀手"]。我们总是隔着有机玻璃，说起这个笑话，你们可以拿这个来开玩笑是好事。重要的是，在我心里，我一直清楚他是无辜的，事实证明我是对的。他确实是。

丽奈特：没错，我们打牌吧。
