The story so far
Everything you need before watchingNaomi wakes Jordan by asking who Venice is. He swore in his sleep, she heard a woman's name, and he insists he does not even know who Venice is. The alibi becomes a condo in California, then a fight about Bermuda grass and credit cards. He begs her to use their words, to communicate, then asks for a kiss. She answers with two words and walks away.

Golden lines
A great line in its own right — why and how to use it“I don't even know who Venice is.”
我根本不知道威尼斯是谁。
把地名听成人名,一句否认把整场误会钉死。
I don't even know who + 名字 + is.
被人冤枉、完全对不上号时。
I don't even know who that is. / I've never heard of her.
informal
even 加重,Venice 单独顿一下。
“Communicate.”
沟通。
一个动词当口号,刚打完架却要讲道理。
单词祈使句。
劝人别动手、改用说话时。
Use your words. / Talk to me.
informal
四个音节放慢,像在教小孩。
Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passageWhat a Greek tragedy, honey! Oh, my God! You probably had to pay them in cash with your hands! What a fucking burden. And actually do some work besides swiping my fucking credit card all day, huh? Because I can't keep track of your professions, honey. 'Cause last month you were a wine connoisseur. Now you're an aspiring landscape architect!
多么希腊悲剧啊,亲爱的!我的天! 你大概还得亲手用现金付他们! 多么他妈的重担。 还真得干点活,而不是整天刷 我他妈的信用卡,嗯? 因为我都跟不上你的职业了,亲爱的。 上个月你还是品酒师。 现在又成了有志景观设计师!
