這場戲：劫持同伴逼人現身
第 12 章 · 共 14 章 · 3'22"
小黃人在倫敦地鐵上被 Mind the gap（小心空隙）反覆唸叨，轉頭在酒館撞見斯嘉麗。她冷笑一句 how's that working out for you（那事對你來說進展如何），隨即上電視放狠話：I will do it, Kevin, if you are not back here by dawn（凱文，黎明前你不回來我就動手）。想學怎麼用一句話陰陽對方，看這一分鐘。
一句冷笑的 how's that working out for you（那事對你來說進展如何）
stole the monarchy from me 從我這兒偷走了王位how's that working out for you 那事對你來說進展如何on the telly 在電視上has gone terribly wrong 出了大岔子
下最後通牒 back here by dawn（黎明前回到這裡）
think you've gotten away 以為你逃掉了what do we have here 瞧瞧我們抓到了什麼Which one shall I kill first 我先殺哪一個back here by dawn 黎明前回到這裡
小黃人跑到倫敦，在地鐵裡一遍遍聽到 Mind the gap（小心空隙），這句是英國地鐵的經典廣播。斯嘉麗在酒館認出凱文，正是他從她手裡搶走了王位，她當面冷笑 how's that working out for you（那事對你來說進展如何）。隨後她上了電視，抓住鮑勃和斯圖爾特，對鏡頭撂話 Which one shall I kill first（我先殺哪一個），逼凱文天亮前回去。這裡的表達都帶刺：Mind the gap 是英式日常，其他兩句適合放狠話、下最後通牒時用。
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。
“And how's that working out for you?”
那事對你來說進展如何啊？
假客氣的一句追問，把對方明顯的失敗攤到檯面上，比罵人更扎人。
And how's that working out for you?
用假客氣嘲諷對方失敗的選擇時用；對剛受挫的人說會傷人。
So, how is that plan going? ／ That worked out well, didn't it?
口語
how's that 連讀，working out 重讀，for you 輕收。
So you quit to travel the world? How is that going for you? 辭職去環遊世界了？那現在過得怎麼樣啊？
“You think you've gotten away? Well, what do we have here?”
你以為你逃掉了？瞧瞧我們抓到了什麼？
先用反問堵死僥倖，再亮出獵物，一收一放寫出獵手的得意。
You think you've gotten away? Well, ...
揭穿對方以為已經脫身時用，語氣得意而危險；別對輸不起的人用。
Did you really think you got away? Look what we caught. ／ So you thought you were safe. And yet, here we are.
口語
gotten away 連讀，what do we have here 放慢。
You think you deleted the email? Well, look what I found. 你以為把郵件刪了就沒事？瞧瞧我發現了什麼。
“I will do it, Kevin, if you are not back here by dawn!”
凱文，黎明前你不回來，我真的會動手！
把威脅壓成一個具體期限，因為點名了黎明而格外冷。
I will ... if you are not back by dawn.
給對方設一個不容拖延的期限時用，語氣冷靜而強硬；別對家人隨口說。
Come back by sunrise or I will go through with it. ／ You have until dawn.
口語
back here 連讀，by dawn 重讀收尾。
I will send it to the client if it is not on my desk by noon! 中午前不放到我桌上，我就直接發給客戶了！
“Which one shall I kill first?”
我先殺哪一個？
把殺人當成挑選順序，冷到像在點菜，一句反問把反派的從容和殘忍同時寫滿。
Which one shall I ... first?
黑色幽默裡假裝從容地做殘酷選擇時能用，只限玩笑或影視語境；真實生活對任何人說都不要。
Who should I start with? ／ Which one goes first?
中性
Which one 連讀，shall I 輕讀，kill first 重讀收尾。
Which one shall I open first, the chips or the cookies? 我先開哪一個，薯片還是餅乾？
下一章 · 13so help me我對天發誓這場戲：變大當靶子後絕地反擊它是英國地鐵裡最經典的廣播，意思是「小心空隙」，提醒乘客上下車時注意站臺和車廂之間的縫隙。
how's that working out for you。常用來冷笑著反問對方，帶點看熱鬧、等著看笑話的諷刺味。
telly 是英式口語，就是「電視」，日常說話裡很常用；TV 更中性，寫文章或美式口語都行。
意思是「凱文，黎明前你不回來，我真的會動手」。這是斯嘉麗下的最後通牒，用抓來的鮑勃和斯圖爾特逼凱文現身。
直譯是「我先殺哪一個」，是很重的狠話，多出現在反派臺詞裡；日常開玩笑要慎用，容易顯得過分。
