這場戲：母親家中得知肖恩來過
第 12 章 · 共 16 章 · 4'00"
沃爾特回家看媽媽，一進門就被催著給小費、搬鋼琴。媽媽聊起瑜伽，說出一身汗就能 get something out of your system（把情緒徹底排出去）；沃爾特則在 wait on（等）一個試鏡通知。想學怎麼聊排解壓力和等訊息，這段很生活化。

沃爾特搬完鋼琴回到媽媽家，被催著給工人小費，又和媽媽閒聊。媽媽說自己去上高溫瑜伽，出一身汗就能 get something out of your system（把情緒徹底排出去）；沃爾特說自己在 wait on（等）一個 audition（試鏡）通知，可能會演《油脂》裡的裡佐，還說自己那樣能 get out of my head（不再胡思亂想）。隨後他問起鋼琴的照片，媽媽淡淡地說：是肖恩拍的，他用過肖恩的相機，因為 he came to visit（他來看過我）。沃爾特這才知道，肖恩專門打聽過他的作息，還說他「真正懂得生活」，如今人在無人管轄的阿富汗，想拍雪豹。

下一章 · 13ask for attention求人注意這場戲：等雪豹時點破底片get something out of your system。system 在這裡指身心狀態，get it out of your system 就是把某種情緒徹底排出去，運動、大哭、傾訴都能用。
字面是「從我腦子裡出去」，實際指「不再胡思亂想、擺脫糾結」。片裡媽媽說瑜伽能讓她 get out of my head，就是停止內耗。
wait on 多指「等著某條訊息、答覆或服務」，wait for 更泛，指「等待某人或某物」。片裡 waiting on a call 就是「等一個電話通知」。
意思是「試鏡、試演」，指演員為爭取角色進行的表演測試。片裡沃爾特在等一個 audition 的通知，想演《油脂》裡的角色。
意思是「軍閥」，指割據一方、手握私人武裝的軍事頭目。片裡肖恩要去「無人管轄的阿富汗」跟 warlords 會面，好換取拍攝許可。
