out of order越界失禮

一句玩笑話把湯米最羞辱的過去擺上桌，也正是全片翻臉的引信。

If I was gonna ..., I'd say ...

先假設再放狠話、半開玩笑地警告時用；真惹人生氣時別拿往事開刀。

If I wanted to insult you, I'd bring that up. ／ If I meant it, you'd know by now.

口語

I was gonna 連讀，shine box 兩詞頓開，冷笑收尾。

If I was gonna tease you, I'd mention the karaoke night. 我要是想損你，就會提那晚唱歌的事。

同一件事從玩笑變成命令，句子短促、全無笑意，翻臉只在一步之間。

Go home and get ...

氣到極點下逐客令時用；對人吼這句等於把關係徹底撕破。

Go on, get out of here. ／ Go home and stay there.

口語

Go home 重讀，shine box 咬清，句尾下沉不留情面。

Go home and get some sleep before you say more. 回家睡一覺再說，別再說了。

一句粗話把六年的代價和理直氣壯都說盡，出獄的人要的不是安慰而是本錢。

I did my time.

強調自己已經付出代價、要求回報時用；輕描淡寫對別人說會顯得不敬。

I served my time. ／ I paid for what I did.

口語

did my time 三詞一頓，Jimmy 放輕，語氣硬。

I did my time, so let me back on the team. 該受的我都受了，讓我回隊裡吧。

前半句是索要，後半句用孩子的嘴做理由，把野心說得理直氣壯。

I got mouths to feed.

說明自己必須掙錢、動力來自家庭時用；用它給不當手段開脫就過了。

I have a family to feed. ／ There are people depending on me.

中性

mouths to feed 連讀，feed 重讀，停頓在逗號處。

I work overtime because I have mouths to feed. 我加班是因為家裡有幾張嘴等著吃飯。
