第 3 章 · 共 14 章 · 6'26"
一家人向警方復盤派對那晚：有人說哈蘭最後 give him the hook（把他趕下場），也有人被點破一直是 the black sheep of the family（家裡的異類）。等真相一條條翻出來，才知道那晚有人大吵一場、還牽扯到錢。想學講家裡是非、拆穿謊話，這些說法最順手。

先鋪兩條匯款線，最後釘上偷，像拆賬本。
一家人圍坐，向警方復盤哈蘭生日派對那晚。有人提到哈蘭最後 give him the hook（把某人趕下場），因為對方死纏著推銷電子書；有人被點破是 the black sheep of the family（家裡的異類），跟哈蘭大吵一場；而真正談崩的，是哈蘭發現有人 double-dipping（同一筆錢拿兩份），當場說要斷掉接濟。談話裡還翻出理查德的外遇、哈蘭要把母親送養老院這些舊賬。想學聊家裡是非、拆穿謊話、說「把某人趕下場」，這些說法全是現成的。
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。
“They're not our books, son.”
那不是我們的書，兒子。
一句話把「共同經營」的美夢戳破：署名是你的，歸屬是我的。加一個 son，把冷酷說得像家常。
They're not our ..., son.
需要明確歸屬、拒絕共享時用，冷靜但有距離感；對情緒激動的人說會像當眾羞辱。
This isn't ours to share, son. ／ It was never really yours.
中性
not our 重讀，son 放低收尾。
This company isn't ours to give away. 這家公司不是我們能送人的。
“But you're not going to be running the publishing house anymore.”
但你不會再管理這家出版社了。
用最平靜的語氣宣佈撤職，把「你被解僱了」裹進一句未來陳述。不吼不叫，權威全在句子裡。
You're not going to be running ... anymore.
宣佈某人不再負責某項事務時用，平靜而堅定；對剛失去所愛的人說會顯得無情。
You won't be in charge of this anymore. ／ Your role here is over.
中性
not going to 連讀，any more 放慢收尾。
You won't be leading this team anymore. 這個團隊不再由你帶了。
“You tell her or I will!”
你要麼告訴她，要麼我來說！
用最簡的對立結構下最後通牒，把秘密的主動權壓到對方手裡；短短六個詞，沒有一句解釋，卻誰都無法裝沒聽見。
You ... or I will!
用二選一逼對方行動時用，語氣強硬、不留餘地；對上級或客戶別用，會徹底撕破臉。
Either you say it or I do. ／ Tell them, or I will.
口語
You tell her 快速帶過，or I will 逐詞加重收尾。
You apologize to her, or I will. 你要麼去向她道歉，要麼我去。
“I've kept you from building something of your own that was yours.”
這些年我一直攔著你，不讓你去建一個真正屬於你自己的東西。
把對方的不滿全部認領成自己的過錯，用自責完成最鋒利的一擊；聽起來是道歉，其實是判決。
I've kept you from building something of your own.
以極度自責的語氣徹底切斷對方期待時用，平靜而決絕；用在普通分歧上會顯得戲劇化。
I've held you back from your own path. ／ I kept you from something that was yours.
中性
I ve kept you from 連讀，something of your own 重讀，was yours 放慢收尾。
I've kept you from the work that was truly yours. 我一直攔著你，沒讓你去做真正屬於你的工作。
They're not our books, son. They're my books. And this is not how I wanted to have this conversation. But you're right, you're right. It's unfair of me to keep you tethered to something that isn't yours to control. What? No, I've done you a grave disservice. All these years, I've kept you from building something of your own that was yours. But you're not going to be running the publishing house anymore. You're free of it.
那不是咱們的賬本，兒子。 那是我的賬本。 而且我本來不想用這種方式談。 但你說得對，你說得對。 我把你拴在這兒，不公平 什麼？ 不，我害你害得不淺。 這麼多年， 我攔著你，沒讓你去撐起 不過你不會再管 你自由了。
Well, Alan didn't mail it because he caught a discrepancy. Alan's office has been wiring tuition directly to the school as per your request. But Phyllis's office that handles your yearly allowance has been wiring tuition monies directly to you as well. You have been double-dipping Meg's tuition and stealing from me. for the past four years.
艾倫沒寄， 艾倫那邊一直在把學費直接電匯給學校 按你的要求。 可管你年度津貼的菲利斯那邊 梅格的學費你一直拿了兩份 過去四年都是。
下一章 · 04a little bird told me有人悄悄告訴我這場戲：盤問發現說謊會嘔吐字面是「家裡的黑羊」，意思是「家裡的異類、害群之馬」。臺詞裡說他一直是家裡的害群之馬，用來指那個不守規矩、被家人當反面教材的人。
可以說 have a blowout。臺詞裡 they had a blowout 就是「他們徹底炸了、大吵了一架」，比 have an argument 更強調動靜大、情緒爆。
意思是「把某人趕下場、打發走」。臺詞裡 Harlan finally had to give him the hook，就是哈蘭最後只好把他趕下場，多指有人賴著不走、只能硬請他離開。
指「重複領取、拿兩份好處或錢」。臺詞裡說有人 double-dipping Meg's tuition，就是同一筆學費向兩邊各領一次，等於偷偷多拿錢。
常說 That's none of your business。臺詞裡有人被追問就回 That's none of your business，意思是「這不關你的事」，語氣比較衝，用來堵回不想回答的問題。
