挺某人、給某人撐腰
有人把多年相處攤開算賬，說自己原以為對方會 have someone's back，也就是懂他、挺他；語氣從受傷滑向質問。

為搬走翻臉的老友：take a bullet for someone
一場爭吵裡，一個人把多年交情攤開算賬：一句 take a bullet for someone（願為某人擋子彈、兩肋插刀）是在說自己以為的過命交情，接著又用 bail on someone（拋下、臨陣脫逃）把對方搬走這件事說成背叛。想學怎麼把失望說成質問，這兩句很夠用。
發生了什麼
兩個人把多年的交情攤開來說。一個人先問，對方是不是一直這樣看他們一起度過的日子，接著說自己原以為只有對方會 have his back（挺他、給他撐腰），甚至願意 take a bullet for someone（願為某人擋子彈、兩肋插刀）。可對方突然說要搬走，他把這說成 bail on someone（拋下某人、臨陣脫逃），眼前只剩一個爛透的未來。話越說越重，從失望變成指責，想學怎麼把委屈和不滿說清楚，這幾個說法都能直接帶走。
這場戲看什麼
- 留意蘭德爾從委屈轉辱罵的拐點
- 髒話密度上升時，關係也在撕裂
- 結尾提議如何突然把爭吵變成方案

關於這一章的問題
have someone's back 是什麼意思？
意思是「挺某人、給某人撐腰」，指在對方需要時站在他這邊。臺詞裡說原以為只有對方會這樣對自己，用來講多年友情的分量。
「拋下某人」英語怎麼說？
可以說 bail on someone，意思是「拋下某人、臨陣脫逃」。臺詞裡說有一天會 bail on our friendship，就是半路拋下這段交情。
take a bullet for someone 只能按字面理解嗎？
不是，常用意思是「願為某人擋子彈、兩肋插刀」，表示願意為對方承擔危險。臺詞裡用它形容自己以為對方會為自己做到這一步。
the yin to my yang 是什麼意思？
意思是「與我互補的另一半」。臺詞裡用它說對方能把自己拉回平衡，是在講兩個人性格互補、缺一不可。
「把某人塞進不合適的框框」英語怎麼說？
可以說 stuff someone into a box，意思是「把某人塞進不合適的框框」。臺詞裡說她沒想把他硬塞進一個不合適的框裡，而是接受他本來的樣子。
