匿名雇佣我这件事

复盘阴谋并设局收网：in for a penny, in for a pound
布兰克坐在凶手对面，把整盘计划一步步复盘：毁掉证据、发匿名邮件、把玛尔塔引到接头地点。他用 in for a penny, in for a pound（一不做，二不休）点破对方为什么越陷越深，最后一句弗兰其实没死，直接把人逼到认罪。想学推理、揭穿、摊牌的说法，这几句最带劲。
发生了什么
布兰克坐在凶手对面，把整套计划复盘出来：先毁掉一切能证明玛尔塔无辜的证据，再发那封匿名邮件，把她引到接头地点，等警察抓个正着。他点破对方是 in for a penny, in for a pound（一不做，二不休），所以越陷越深、不肯收手。可凶手的计划本会得逞 in no time（转眼就成功），前提是没人识破。最后布兰克亮出底牌：弗兰其实还活着，还藏了一份毒理报告副本。他说玛尔塔 outplayed（棋高一着）对方，凭的就是一颗善良的心。想学推理、摊牌、揭穿，这段很过瘾。
这场戏看什么
- 听布兰克用现在时推旧案
- 注意弗兰临终说的是 Hugh
- 看玛尔塔救人如何拆棋局

发音重点
- hirin' of — hirin' of 连读时 hirin' 末尾的音接上 of，of 又弱化成轻音，听起来像 hirin-əv，中间不停顿。
- for it — for it 连读时 for 末尾的音接上 it，听起来像 fo-rit，两个词粘成一块。
- wait for — for 常缩成一个很轻的 /fə/，几乎被 wait 吃进去，听着像 wait-fə；重音落在 wait，for 轻轻滑过。
In for a penny, in for a pound.一不做，二不休。 用一句老话概括铤而走险的心理：既然已经下了注，就索性押到底。它把道德犹豫压缩成一句决定，也预告了后面不可挽回的后果。
Yeah, I killed Fran. But I guess I didn't.没错，我杀了弗兰。不过看来我没杀成。 一句话里先认罪再翻案，靠 but 完成反转，嚣张得近乎滑稽。这种自曝式台词最抓人。
And now you think you can steal it from us?现在你觉得能从我们手里把这一切偷走？ 用一个反问把「继承」改写成「偷窃」，直接给玛尔塔定性；声音不大，却是整场家族傲慢最赤裸的一次。
I knew Harlan wouldn't just kill himself.我就知道哈兰不会随随便便自杀。 用一句话点破全场最大的错觉：不是她多聪明，而是她了解死者；断言越朴素，越显笃定。
关于这一章的问题
in for a penny, in for a pound 是什么意思？
意思是「一不做，二不休」，既然已经投入了就别半途而废。台词里用它描述凶手既然走到这一步，就干脆把计划做到底，说得很传神。
「不怀好意」英语怎么说？
可以说 up to no good。台词里 she knew you were up to no good，就是「她知道你不怀好意」，常用来怀疑某人正在做见不得人的事。
come to light 是什么意思？
意思是「被揭露、真相浮出水面」。台词里说到毒理报告 come to light，就是等报告一公开，真相就会露出来，计划也会随之被推翻。
「棋高一着」英语怎么说？
可以用动词 outplay，outplayed you 就是「棋高一着赢过你」。台词里说玛尔塔 outplayed you once again，强调她又一次靠本事赢过对方。
凶手最后为什么认罪？
布兰克揭穿弗兰其实没死、还藏了毒理报告副本，又当众复盘他毁证据、发匿名邮件的每一步，凶手见全盘败露，也就只能认了。
