王室的到訪有驚無險，晚宴上大家輪流舉杯，here's to（為……乾杯）國王王后，也敬卡森嚥下原則、王后可憐莫爾斯利。散場後，安迪向黛西坦白：水泵是他弄壞的，因為嫉妒她和那個水管工親近，一時 saw red（火冒三丈），事後自己也覺得像個傻瓜。黛西沒怪他，說換作自己有膽量也會那麼幹。深夜，巴羅和埃利斯聊到沒跟誰這樣交心過；巴羅說像他們這樣的男人得 stick together（抱團），又感慨難得不用 fit in（去迎合、合群），做兩個普通人真好。

“Here's to the triumph of Downton and my beautiful wife.”
為唐頓的勝利，也為我美麗的妻子，乾杯。
把家國大事和兒女私情並在一句祝酒詞裡，又體面又親暱。
Here's to X and Y
舉杯祝酒時用；嚴肅會議或悼念場合不要這麼輕快。
Here's to the team and a bright future. ／ Let's drink to our host and her patience.
中性
Here's to 連讀，triumph 與 wife 兩處重讀。
Here's to the couple and a long happy life. 為這對新人，也為他們長久幸福的日子，乾杯。
“Oh, Andy, I'd have done it myself if I'd had the nerve.”
哦，安迪，我要是有膽量，自己也會那麼幹。
用虛擬語氣把原諒說成共謀，比一句沒關係更有溫度。
I'd have done it myself if I'd had the nerve
原諒對方又不想顯得高高在上時用；職場認錯場合別這樣說。
I might have done the same in your place. ／ Given the nerve, I would have done the same.
口語
I'd have 與 if I'd had 連讀，nerve 咬清楚。
I would have done it myself if I'd had the nerve. 換作是我，有那份膽量也會幹。
“50 years ago, who'd have thought man could fly?”
五十年前，誰能想到人真的能飛？
用一個反問把眼前的進步放進時間尺度裡，給未來留了盼頭。
X years ago, who'd have thought ...?
感慨時代變化時用；正式論證裡要補資料，別隻拋反問。
A century ago, nobody could have imagined this. ／ Who would have dreamt of such a change?
中性
who'd have 連讀，thought 與 man 之間略停。
Twenty years ago, who'd have thought we would pay by phone? 二十年前，誰能想到我們用手機付錢？
“I've never just talked to someone like me.”
我從來沒跟像我這樣的人，只是聊過天。
一句樸素自白，道出長久以來的孤單與認親。
I've never just ... someone like me.
遇到同類、第一次覺得被理解時用；對一般同事別過度交心。
I've never met anyone quite like me. ／ I've never had someone who just gets it.
口語
重讀 never、just、me，語速放慢。
Tonight I finally just talked to someone like me. 今晚我終於跟像我這樣的人只是聊了聊天。
I've got to tell you something, Daisy. It was me that broke the pump. I don't know what I was doing. I was just in a jealous rage. - Why? - It was that plumber you made eyes at. I just saw red. And then when I realized I'd brought him back to the house, I went nearly mad.
黛西，我有件事得告訴你。 水泵是我弄壞的。 我也不知道自己當時在幹什麼。 我當時就是嫉妒得發狂。 ——為什麼？——就是那個你拋媚眼的水管工。 我一下子就火冒三丈。 後來我意識到是我把他帶回了宅子，簡直要瘋了。
下一章 · 20light-fingered手腳不乾淨這場戲：揭穿裁縫偷東西字面是「眼前一紅」，意思是一下子火冒三丈、怒上心頭。劇裡安迪說自己嫉妒得不行，I just saw red，就是「我一下子就火了」，形容情緒失控很形象。
here's to。舉杯時接人或事，比如 Here's to the triumph of Downton 就是「為唐頓的勝利乾杯」，一句話就能帶動全桌。
stick together。劇裡說 We have to stick together, men like us，就是「像我們這樣的人得抱團」，強調彼此支援、別散夥。
指「融入、合群」，努力讓自己被一個群體接受。劇裡說 not trying to fit in for once，就是「難得不用去迎合誰」，帶點解脫感。
made eyes at，比如 that plumber you made eyes at 就是「你拋媚眼的那個水管工」。它指用眼神表達好感，比 stare 曖昧得多。
