這場戲：借火打死人再要酒喝
第 14 章 · 共 20 章 · 2'56"
喬被綁著審問，卻慢悠悠地借煙借火，趁人湊近時一招把人打死，還留下一句 I seem to have dropped my cigarette（我好像把煙掉了）。等大佬露面自報是壞人，喬不慌，說該發抖等會兒再抖。想學怎麼在槍口下用冷幽默壓場子，這段很經典。
「我好像把煙掉了」：dropped my cigarette
got a cigarette 有煙嗎got a light 有火嗎dropped my cigarette 把煙掉了touch me again 再碰我一下
喬被邁洛的人綁在椅子上，對方一邊警告要提防他，一邊揍他。喬不急著掙扎，反而慢悠悠地開口借煙，點著後又假裝把煙掉了、要再借一根，趁對方靠近時出手，一下把人打死。屋裡的人震驚，他淡淡說：我需要借個火。隨後邁洛登場，不但沒生氣，還誇他沒讓自己失望；喬反過來說，你要是想讓我死早就動手了。兩人你來我往，邁洛承認自己是那個壞人，喬則說等會兒再抖，in the meantime（與此同時）先來杯酒。

“Hey, baby. I thought you were tough.”
嘿，寶貝。我還以為你挺硬的。
用最親暱的稱呼說最輕蔑的話，嘲諷全在 baby 和 tough 的落差裡。
I thought you were ...
熟人之間笑對方慫了時用，半開玩笑；正式場合會顯得挑釁。
I thought you were tougher than that. ／ And I figured you were the tough one.
口語
baby 拖長，thought 縮短，tough 重讀。
I thought you were brave, but you ran. 我還以為你挺勇敢，結果你跑了。
“I seem to have dropped my cigarette.”
我好像把煙掉了。
把挑釁說成一句客套，越客氣越讓人心裡發毛。
I seem to have ...
想裝無辜地提出要求時用，語氣客氣；真道歉時別這樣打太極。
I appear to have dropped it. ／ Looks like I dropped my cigarette.
中性
seem to have 連讀，dropped 輕帶，句尾放平。
I seem to have lost my pen; could I borrow yours? 我好像把筆弄丟了，能借你的用下嗎？
“If you touch me again, I'll kill you.”
你再碰我一下，我就殺了你。
條件句當倒計時用，一個字都不多，殺氣反而更足。
If you ..., I'll ...
被人一再冒犯、劃最後底線時用，語氣冷靜；氣話也別說給外人聽。
Touch me one more time and you're done. ／ Do that again and I won't hold back.
口語
touch me again 連讀，kill 重讀，整句壓低。
If you lie to me again, I'll walk out. 你再騙我一次，我就走人。
“If you wanted me dead, you'd have killed me already.”
你要是想讓我死，早就動手了。
用虛擬條件反將一軍，把對方的殺意當邏輯題拆穿。
If you wanted ..., you'd have ... already.
用假設反推對方真實意圖時用，談判和辯論裡都管用。
If killing me were the plan, I'd be dead. ／ You'd have done it by now if you meant it.
正式
wanted 後停頓，you'd have 連讀，already 收尾下壓。
If you wanted to fire me, you'd have done it already. 你要想開除我，早就開了。
“And I'm supposed to be trembling with fear?”
那我是不是該嚇得發抖？
把對方的威壓包裝成一個反問，等於當面說這套嚇不著我。
And I'm supposed to ...?
被人虛張聲勢時用來拆臺，帶諷刺；對長輩或客戶別這麼衝。
Am I supposed to be scared now? ／ Is this the part where I panic?
口語
supposed to 連讀成 sposta，fear 尾音上揚。
And I'm supposed to be impressed by that? 這就想讓我佩服你？
“I'll start trembling in a minute. In the meantime, think I could have a drink?”
我過一會兒再抖。趁這空當，我能來杯酒嗎？
把害怕排進日程，再順勢要酒喝，囂張得讓人無法反駁。
I'll ... in a minute. In the meantime, ...
想用玩笑頂回壓力、再提自己要求時用，熟人之間；正式場合別學。
I'll panic later; meanwhile, pour me something. ／ Give me a second to be scared, and a drink now.
口語
in a minute 輕快帶過，In the meantime 稍停頓再放慢。
I'll worry later. In the meantime, let's eat. 我回頭再愁。趁這工夫，先吃飯。
“Fuck you. Fuck that. Look at him. He's nothing. Guy's a piece of shit.”
去你媽的。去他媽的。看看他。他什麼都不是。就是個垃圾。
五個短句連珠炮，氣勢拉滿卻句句露怯，越兇越顯得心虛。
Look at him. He's nothing.
要在眾人面前貶低一個人時用，攻擊性極強；任何正式場合都不能用。
Look at him; he's a nobody. ／ That guy is worth nothing.
口語
每句短促斷開，nothing 和 piece of shit 都重讀。
Look at him. He's nothing without his friends. 看看他，沒了那幫朋友他什麼都不是。
下一章 · 15for the cheap seats說給後排聽這場戲：審訊室硬剛與賭球陰謀意思是「與此同時、在這期間」，指等某件事發生之前先做另一件事。片裡喬說等會兒再抖，in the meantime 先來杯酒，就是把兩件事並在一起說。
意思是「兩發兩中、兩次都成」，源自比賽或射擊的計分。說 someone is two for two，就是誇他連續兩次都成功。
意思是「提防、當心某人或某物」。watch out for someone 就是提醒要小心那個人，常用在警示和叮囑裡。
trembling with fear。tremble 是發抖，with fear 表示因為恐懼，合起來就是「嚇得發抖」，也可以說 shaking with fear。
意思是「給某人弄杯酒」，fix 在這裡不是「修理」，而是口語裡「準備、調變」的意思，做飲料、做杯咖啡都能用。
