這場戲：講舅舅醉酒糗事被打斷
第 12 章 · 共 21 章 · 5'02"
酒桌上查基講他舅舅的糗事：醉得開車回家，被州警攔下走 walk the line（走直線測醉駕），結果把警車開回了家。摩根一直追問這故事到底 make sense（說得通）嗎，越問越亂。想學警察查酒駕、或吐槽一件事根本說不通，這兩句就派上用場了。
❝ 獨白 · 31 句 一句 the point of（這有什麼意義）
took off 跑了、開溜the point of …的意義、要點drove the wrong car home 開錯車回了家
酒桌上，查基講起他舅舅的糗事：馬蒂舅舅喝得爛醉開車回家，被州警攔下，警察讓他 walk the line（走直線測酒駕），他當場吐了；等警察跑去處理別的車禍，他竟把警車開回了自己家。偏偏有人不買賬，追問這故事到底 the point of（意義）在哪，講故事的人只回一句「他走了，這就是意義」。後半場還有朋友拿哈佛女孩開玩笑，說怕人家看清他住的小破屋，就把他 dropped like a bad habit（像甩包袱一樣甩掉）。walk the line 除了「走直線」，也常用來指守住底線；the point of 用來追問某事的意義；dropped like a bad habit 形容被幹脆利落地甩開。

He gets out of the car, you know, pukes and the guy statie's pretty sure he's over the legal limit. So, he's about to throw the cuffs on him and put him in jail. - So statie gets real spooked, and he turns around... - He got shot? - No, no. - So, so... - You've heard this story before. - Yeah, Morgan, stop it. Stop it. Some other guy's car had hit a tree. Okay? There was an accident. - Anyway...

Okay, shut up. - Sorry. - He told you the story once before. Go ahead. So he tells my uncle, "Stay here. Don't move. " So statie goes runnin' down the road to deal with the other accident.

Let met get in your garage. " My uncle's like, "All right, fine. " Takes him 'round to the garage, opens the door. And there's... The statie's police cruiser is in my uncle's garage. He was so fuckin'... He was so fuckin' hammered, he drove the wrong car home.
那我就講了。多謝。看來現在輪到我發言了。 呃，對，我馬蒂舅舅開車回家，對吧？ 醉得魂都沒了，對吧？爛醉如泥。簡直醉死了！ 有個州警，呃，看見他，就把他攔了下來。 所以我舅舅基本完蛋了。州警把他弄下車，讓他走直線。 他下了車，你知道，吐了一地，那警察基本確定他超標了。 於是，他正要給他銬上手銬，把他關進監獄。 ——結果那警察嚇壞了，他一轉身……——他中槍了？ ——沒有沒有。——那，那…… ——這故事你聽過了。——是啊，摩根，別鬧了。別鬧。 是別人的車撞到樹上了。行吧？出了場車禍。 ——總之……你給我閉嘴！——那車禍要不是就在他身後，他怎麼可能聽得見？ ——我要擰斷你的脖子。——摩根，你快把他逼瘋了。——閉嘴！行了，閉嘴。 ——對不起。——他以前跟你講過一次了。你繼續。 於是他對舅舅說：“待在這兒。別動。” 然後那警察就一路跑過去處理那起車禍。 在自己那攤尿和嘔吐物裡躺了幾分鐘之後…… 我舅舅開……開始納悶自己在那兒幹嘛。 他爬起來，上了自己的車，徑直開回了家。 結果第二天早上，我舅舅正昏睡不醒…… 這時聽見有人敲門。 他下樓，一把把門拉開。“幹嘛？” 是昨晚攔他的那個州警。 警察說：“你他媽什麼意思，還‘幹嘛’。你心裡清楚。 昨晚是我把你攔下來的，結果你特麼跑了。” 他說：“我敢打賭我這輩子從沒見過你。 我一整晚都在家陪孩子。我特麼不知道你是誰。”他說：“你知道我是誰。 讓我進你的車庫。”我舅舅說：“什麼？”他說：“你聽見了。讓我進你的車庫。”我舅舅說：“行吧，隨你。” 他帶他繞到車庫，開啟門。 結果……那警察的警車就停在我舅舅的車庫裡。 他醉得太……他醉得實在太厲害，把車開錯了，開回了自己家。
下一章 · 13given free rein任其發揮這場戲：酒吧裡為前途吵翻字面是「走直線」，指警察查酒駕時讓司機走直線測平衡；也常引申為「守住底線、不越界」。戲裡舅舅就是沒通過這一關。
可以說 make sense，否定是 doesn't make sense。戲裡 It does make sense if you listen to the story，就是「你好好聽就說得通」。
用來問某件事的「意義、要點」，比如 what's the point of your story 就是「你這故事有什麼意義」。後面接名詞或動名詞都行。
不是罵人，是形容被幹脆利落地甩掉，像戒掉一個壞習慣一樣快。帶點自嘲或調侃，多形容戀人、朋友突然被冷落。
took off 更口語，強調「突然跑了、開溜」，常帶點不告而別的意思；leave 比較中性，就是「離開」。警察說 you took off 就是「你跑了」。
