The story so far
Everything you need before watchingIn a Geneva parlor Jordan skips the champagne and asks the only question that matters: when would this bank help the FBI. Saurel makes him wait through chit chat, then jokes about tanks in the street. The real rule is colder. Cooperation exists only if the crime is also a crime in Switzerland. A U.S. subpoena, he says, becomes toilet paper. Then he leaves a cousin-shaped hole in the account name.

Golden lines
A great line in its own right — why and how to use it“or a U.S. Justice Department investigation, for example?”
或者比方说美国司法部的调查?
for example 把最危险的机关随口挂上。
or a + 机构 + investigation, for example?
把敏感对象塞进举例,降低火药味。
Say, a federal investigation? / The Justice Department, for instance?
formal
Justice Department 匀速,example 上扬。
“We would wipe our ass with it.”
我们会拿它擦屁股。
法律答案落到最脏的动词上。
We would wipe our ass with + 物。
要当众表示某文件毫无约束力时。
We'd ignore it. / It's worthless paper.
informal
wipe / ass 两处都重,with it 收掉。
Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passageThe only way the Banque Réal de Genéve would cooperate with a foreign legal body is if the crime being pursued is also a crime in Switzerland. But there are very few Swiss laws which apply to your practices. From a financial standpoint, you are now in heaven. See, I told you he was fantastic, right? If the U.S. Justice Department sent us a subpoena, it would become papier toilette. We would wipe our ass with it.
日内瓦皇家银行 唯一会配合外国司法机构的情况 是被追查的那项罪行 在瑞士也构成犯罪。 但能套到你们那套玩法上的瑞士法律很少。 从金融角度看, 你现在 就是上了天堂。 瞧,我就说他了不起,对吧? 要是美国司法部给我们发传票,那就会变成 厕纸。 我们拿它擦屁股。
