這場戲:謀劃殺掉再解剖
第 20 章 · 共 22 章 · 4'40"
會議室裡,一夥人拍板「先殺後解剖」,哈特森還說想學解剖,對方當場翻手機開課,一句 First, you need to locate the anus(首先,你得先找到肛門)把正事全帶偏了。另一邊癟四和大頭蛋摸進一輛車,邊倒車邊互相吹捧 you're on a roll(順風順水)。夸人狀態好、吐槽別人跑偏,這段都用得上。
一句 First, you need to locate the anus(首先,你得先找到肛門)把解剖課上成鬧劇
on the same team 站在同一邊on the contrary 恰恰相反locate the anus 找到肛門in the first place 一開始、本來
互相吹捧 you're on a roll(順風順水),還把跟蹤者猜成外星人
on a roll 順風順水、連著走運happens to be 碰巧是……run out of 用完、耗盡this baby 這寶貝(指車)
會議室裡,兩撥人本來在爭兩個小子到底是外星人還是太空梭上的人,最後想通了——反正一夥想弄死,一夥想解剖,於是握手說 We're all on the same team(我們其實是一夥的)。哈特森支支吾吾地表示自己對解剖很好奇,對方卻說 on the contrary(正相反),一分鐘就能講完,還翻出手機圖片:First, you need to locate the anus(首先,你得先找到肛門)。另一邊,癟四和大頭蛋溜進一輛車,一邊倒車一邊互相誇 you're on a roll(順風順水),上路後還猜跟蹤者是金星人或大角星六號。想表達「目標一致」「恰恰相反」「順風順水」,這場戲全有。
A1–C2 是歐標等級。點一個等級後,比它高的卡片會變淡,播放到那裡不會自動暫停。

“No, you know what, forget it, it's probably way too complicated for someone like me to understand.”

自嘲式退場,way too complicated 把放棄說得理直氣壯又好笑。

下一章 · 21hang in the balance懸於一線這場戲:倒著開車被喊話救宇宙表示「順風順水、連著走運」,一件事接著一件事都順。笑點在於兩個傻子剛做對一件小事,就互相吹捧 on a roll,反差很好笑。日常夸人狀態好也能用。
on the contrary。前面有人唱反調或想放棄時,用這句把話頭一轉,表示「正相反」。語氣比 actually 更正式、更有戲,適合反駁和演講。
bring your A-game,意思是拿出最好的表現。教練、上司賽前動員下屬時最愛說。也可以說 bring one's A-game,拼寫裡的 A 就是「一流」的意思。
除了 on a roll,也可以說 on a streak,都表示連續順利。區別是 on a roll 更口語、更興奮,on a streak 常用於比賽或成績統計。
指「解剖」,把身體或事物拆開仔細研究。戲裡一夥人要 dissect 兩個小子,另一個還興致勃勃想學。引申義是逐條分析,比如 dissect a plan。
