這場戲：當面戳穿僱人監視
第 23 章 · 共 24 章 · 2'05"
瑪麗拿著剛收到的 an anonymous letter（匿名信），當面問泰德是不是找人來 spy on me（監視自己）。泰德支支吾吾承認了，瑪麗一句 Get out（滾出去）把他轟出門；他急著解釋，說自己從沒想 trick me into（騙她動心），可話已經說不清。想學被當場拆穿時的英文對白，這段最急切。
get in the way 是「擋路、礙事」
FedEx it 用快遞寄過去spy on me 監視我、盯我的梢
trick me into 是「騙某人去做某事」
anonymous letter 匿名信Get out 出去、滾出去hardly know 跟……根本不熟Trick me into 騙我去做某事
瑪麗收到一封 an anonymous letter（匿名信），立刻明白有人在監視她，於是當面質問泰德是不是找人來 spy on me（監視自己）。泰德先是裝糊塗，最終還是承認確有其事，還辯解說那個傢伙的事他一點都不知道，跟他根本不熟。瑪麗不買賬，一句 Get out 讓他走人，還冷冷問他是不是想 trick me into（騙她動心）。泰德在門口終於說出真心話：他從來沒 stopped thinking about you（停止過想她）。

“Did you hire Pat Healy to spy on me?”
你是不是僱了帕特·希利來監視我？
一句直搗要害的當面質問，把整場攤牌點著了。
Did you hire someone to spy on me?
當面質問對方是否揹著自己做事時用；對上級這麼問會顯得衝。
Were you having me followed? ／ Did you pay someone to watch me?
中性
hire Pat Healy 連讀，spy on me 逐詞加重。
Did you hire someone to spy on my work? 你僱人盯著我的工作？
“How could you have some guy you don't even know spy on me?”
你怎麼能讓一個你壓根不認識的人來監視我？
反問裡套著定語從句，一句把委屈和火氣一起推出去。
How could you ...?
被信任的人傷了之後反問對方時用；冷靜談判時別用這種控訴口氣。
How could you do this to me? ／ How could you let a stranger watch me?
口語
you don't even 連讀，spy on me 放慢加重。
How could you share my secret with strangers? 你怎麼能把我的秘密告訴外人？
“I did it because I never stopped thinking about you.”
我這麼做，是因為我一直沒停止過想你。
前面全是辯解，最後一句把動機收成一句告白，很戳人。
I did it because I never stopped thinking about you.
解釋自己為什麼放不下某人時用；正式道歉別隻拿感情當理由。
The truth is I never stopped thinking about you. ／ I did it because I couldn't let you go.
中性
never stopped 連讀，thinking about you 緩下來收尾。
I wrote because I never stopped thinking about you. 我寫信，是因為我一直沒停止過想你。
“And if I didn't find you, I knew that my life would never. Ever be good again.”
要是沒找到你，我知道我這輩子再也……再也好不起來了。
把「再也不」拆成兩次 never 的停頓，那句話越說不下去，感情越重。
If I didn't find you, my life would never be good again.
向久別的人做最深告白時用；關係沒到那一步，或在公開場合說，會讓對方壓力很大。
Without finding you, I knew I'd never be happy again. ／ I knew my life couldn't be good without you.
literary
I knew that my life 稍快，would never 停一下，Ever be good again 放慢、逐詞落下。
If I hadn't found this team, my life would never be right again. 要是沒找到這個團隊，我這輩子再也順不起來了。
下一章 · 24cross the line越界這場戲：對質誰在背後跟蹤指暗中監視我、盯我的梢。原句問對方是不是僱希利來監視她，是這句質問裡最重的指控。
指匿名信，不寫寄信人。原句說收到一封匿名信，才把僱人監視這件事捅了出來。
指用手段騙某人去做某事，後面接動名詞。原句 trick me into feeling something for you 就是「騙我對你動心」。
說 hardly know someone。原句說自己 hardly know him，就是「我跟他根本不熟」，想撇清關係。
說 First of all，用來在辯解或列舉時開口。原句先說 First of all，再一條條解釋自己的理由。
