The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThe plane is still on the ground in Gander. Flight attendants keep saying nothing is wrong, but a passenger with grandchildren hears the tell: movies start when questions must stop. Nick leaves the drunk singers at the back and sits by Diane. She worries about someone flying that day, and cannot tell him she is in Newfoundland. That night the president comes over the cockpit radio. The cabin goes silent. Watch seatmates fumble for talk, then a formal speech lock the fear in place.

Golden lines
A great line in its own right — why and how to use it“Do you mind if I sit here?”
我坐这儿你介意吗?
六个词把借座说成征求许可,礼貌又不卑微。
Do you mind if I + 动词…?
借座、插话、占用别人空间前开口。
Is this seat taken? / Mind if I sit here?
neutral
mind if 连上,sit here 轻轻落下。
“But I got kids, and I got grandkids. I know when someone's hiding something.”
可我有孩子,还有孙子。别人瞒事,我听得出来。
用带过孩子当证据,把「没事」拆成隐瞒。
I know when someone is + 动词-ing.
凭经验指出对方在瞒、在装时。
I can tell when someone's lying. / I know when people are covering.
informal
got kids / got grandkids 对仗,hiding 加重。
“But make no mistake:”
但请不要搞错:
三个词把后文钉死,正式场合用来堵退路。
Make no mistake: + 断言。
演讲、声明里先封口再给结论时。
Don't get this wrong. / Let me be clear.
formal
no 和 mistake 都咬清,冒号处停住。
Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passageI ask the American people to join me in saying a thanks for all the folks who have been fighting hard to rescue our fellow citizens, and to join me in saying a prayer for the victims and their families. The resolve of our great nation is being tested. But make no mistake: We will show the world that we will pass this test. God bless.
我请美国人民和我一起致谢 向所有奋力营救同胞的人们, 并和我一起为遇难者及其家人祈祷。 我们伟大国家的决心正受到考验。 但请不要搞错: 我们将向世界证明,我们能通过这场考验。 上帝保佑。
