吉姆带阿曼达回到老房子，翻出一整柜高中旧物，她感叹这简直是 a time capsule（时光胶囊）。旧T恤一件件认领，他还回一句 like it's a bad thing（说得好像这是件坏事）；直到翻出旧笔记本里的情诗，念到阿曼达的名字，两人都臊了。想学怎么用英语翻旧账、互相打趣，这几句很地道。

吉姆带阿曼达回到自己的老房子，翻出满柜高中旧物，她一句 This is amazing, it's like a time capsule（太不可思议了，简直像个时间胶囊）说出了这场景的味道。两人从黑光灯、旧T恤聊到当年打扮，互相吐槽 you did not look good（你穿那件不好看），又为一件件衣服争是谁的。翻到私密笔记本时，一边喊 private property（私人财产）一边被抢着念，最后念出他高中写的情诗：My lips said hello my friend but my heart said hello my future（我的嘴说「你好，朋友」，我的心却说「你好，我的未来」），还有那句 ripped in half（被撕成两半）。想学怎么用英语怀旧、斗嘴、念情话，这些句子都能直接用。
