借钱买下快捷商店：pan out
几个人盘算买下快捷商店，钱不够；有人答应出钱，却先开出 on two conditions（有两个条件）。聊到这些年大学和别的都没成，一句 never panned out（始终没成）把话题拉回到他们自己身上。谈钱、谈合作、复盘人生都能用。
发生了什么
几个人盘算买下快捷商店，却发现谁都没那笔钱；有人愿意出钱，但先摆出 on two conditions（有两个条件），其中一条包括不许报警。聊到这些年大学和别的机会，有人说这些事 never panned out（始终没成）；随后又冒出一句 I was this close to starting a new life（差一点就开始新生活）。想练谈条件、谈钱、谈遗憾，这几个说法都很实用，也能直接搬进日常聊天。
这场戏看什么
- 看谁先松口、条件怎么砍
- 荤段子后语气突然转认真
- 结尾告白用玩笑卸力
留意这几个短语

本章短语
pan out

有人把多年在店里耗着、大学没读成，说成一种迟来的解释；pan out 用在这里，指这些事最后都没成，语气从自嘲滑向认真。
The plan to open a food truck panned out after they found a cheap lot.他们找到便宜场地后，开餐车的计划成功了。

本章全部批注
34 句台词里标了 30 处
五万块
Like, 50 grand, easy.一千美元——街头谈钱常用，正式报价写 thousand dollars
Like, 50 grand, easy.那种数目的钱
And neither one of us have that type of money.one of us 快说时 of 只剩轻轻一带，三个词黏着走
And neither one of us have that type of money.愿意借出
You guys would be willing to lend us some of that money so we can reopen the stores?目的状语从句：so we can + 动词表示“好让我们能……”，说明借钱用途，不是结果。
You guys would be willing to lend us some of that money so we can reopen the stores?有两个条件
有人先一句 Sure 答应借钱，紧跟着 on two conditions 把话停住，开出两个条件；语气爽快，条件却一个比一个离谱。
Sure, on two conditions.在店门口闲荡
One: We can hang out in front of the store anytime we want, and you can't call the cops.报警
有人把「不许报警」列成借钱条件，一句 call the cops 说得像正经条款，内容却是在耍无赖，笑点就出来了。
One: We can hang out in front of the store anytime we want, and you can't call the cops.警察——口语/街头说法，正式场合用 police
One: We can hang out in front of the store anytime we want, and you can't call the cops.互相口交——粗俗性俚语，只在成人私密语境
And two: You have to blow each other, and we get to watch.肛交后口交——极粗俗性俚语，仅成人语境
Then you have to go ass to mouth.说来不情愿，但……
I almost hate to say it, but...有点说得通

Hey, maybe that's why we spent so much time in that store, why college or anything else never panned out for us.对我们始终没成
Hey, maybe that's why we spent so much time in that store, why college or anything else never panned out for us.表语从句：that's why 后接两个 why 从句，把耗在店里和别的路没走通并列成同一种解释。
Hey, maybe that's why we spent so much time in that store, why college or anything else never panned out for us.自己开店做生意
You and me running our own business instead of working for some other asshole?而不是替人打工
You and me running our own business instead of working for some other asshole?混蛋；讨厌鬼——粗俗骂人话，正式场合禁用
You and me running our own business instead of working for some other asshole?他妈的（加强语气）——粗俗强调词，别在正式场合用
Could be pretty fuckin' sweet, right?差一点就开始
I was this close to starting a new life.开启新生活
I was this close to starting a new life.this 重读，close to 轻快滑过，new life 稍放慢
I was this close to starting a new life.反意问句：前面 you're gonna 陈述，后面 aren't you 反问，逼对方确认，带无奈。
You're actually gonna make me do this, aren't you?aren't you 快问时连成一串，尾音上挑，别拖长 you
You're actually gonna make me do this, aren't you?捂住耳朵
Can you guys cover your ears for a minute, please?最好的朋友
You're my best friend...看懂「借钱买下快捷商店」
发音重点
- one of us — one of us 快说时 of 只剩轻轻一带，三个词黏着走
- kind of makes — kind of 两个词常缩成一团，中间别停顿，makes 紧跟
- this close to — this 重读，close to 轻快滑过，new life 稍放慢
- aren't you — aren't you 快问时连成一串，尾音上挑，别拖长 you
And neither one of us have that type of money.而我们俩谁都没有那种钱。 用错位的 neither...have 和 that type of money，一句就把窘迫说透。
Hey, maybe that's why we spent so much time in that store, why college or anything else never panned out for us.嘿，也许这就是为什么我们在那店里耗了那么多时间，为什么大学或其他什么事都没成。 把多年失败重新解释成命运伏笔，panned out 一词很准。
I was this close to starting a new life.我差一点就开始新生活了。 this close to 把差一点的距离感说得很具体，收尾有惋惜。
You're actually gonna make me do this, aren't you?你真要逼我做这件事，是吧？ 反意问句把责任推回对方，半无奈半撒娇。
Please, man, don't leave me.求你了，老兄，别丢下我。 最短的挽留，man 和 please 把逞强全卸掉。
关于这一章的问题
on two conditions 是什么意思？
意思是「有两个条件」。有人答应出钱，但先把条件摆出来：可以在店门口待着、不许报警，后面还有一条更离谱的。谈合作、借钱时都用得上。
「差一点就」英语怎么说？
可以用 this close to。台词里说 I was this close to starting a new life，就是「我差一点就开始新生活了」。想强调只差一点点没做成，用这个说法很自然。
pan out 在这里指什么？
指事情最后有没有成、有没有好结果。台词里说大学或别的什么 never panned out for us，就是这些事始终没成。不是「平底锅」的意思。
「报警」英语怎么说？
可以说 call the cops。台词里列条件时说 you can't call the cops，就是「你们不许报警」。cops 是口语里的警察，比 call the police 更随意。
in a totally heterosexual way 是认真的吗？
字面上是给前面那句「我爱你」加一道限定：强调是异性恋意义上的爱，好把话拉回兄弟情。台词没交代这句是玩笑还是认真，但它紧接在那句「我爱你」后面特意补上，听起来像在刻意撇清。
