这场戏：合伙人当面撤资
第 13 章 · 共 19 章 · 3'23"
菲利普约哈里在酒吧见面，开口就是 I'm withdrawing from our partnership（我要退出我们的合伙），哈里急得追问 Why are you backing out（你为什么要撤）。菲利普一句 I'll take the loss（亏就亏了）把话说死，又用 no alternative（别无选择）逼他去找绞杀者。想把「我不干了」说得体面又决绝，这段值得抄。
「挡我的道」：in my way（挡我的道）
in my way 挡我的道miss the point 没抓住重点as long as 只要withdraw that money 把那笔钱抽回来
❝ 独白 · 4 句 「你没别的选择」：no alternative（别无选择）
back out 中途退出、反悔take the loss 认赔throw good money after bad 往亏本的事上继续砸钱no alternative 别无选择
前半段克里斯托当面质问菲利普：一边想投资克里斯托的公司，一边又给哈里撑腰，说不通。菲利普一句 Harry Fabian is in my way（他挡了我的路）道出立场，又说 It isn't your money that keeps him alive（让他撑下去的不是你的钱），暗示只要哈里守着只办古典式摔跤，生意注定失败。后半段在酒吧，菲利普告诉哈里 Harry, I've brought you here to tell you that I'm withdrawing from our partnership，等于用 back out（中途退出、反悔）当场撤资，还说 I'll take the loss（亏就亏了）是最后答复，最后用 no alternative（别无选择）逼他去请绞杀者。

下一章 · 14turn tail掉头就跑这场戏：酒吧里挖角摔跤手指明知已经亏了，还继续往里面投钱，越陷越深。菲利普用它说明自己不肯再投，要谈新的条件。
可以说 I'm withdrawing from our partnership，也可以说 back out，指中途退出或反悔。片里菲利普两处都用到了。
不完全是，它指认下亏损，不再纠缠。菲利普说亏就亏了、这是最后答复，就是不肯再投钱。
不一样。in my way 是挡路、碍事，on my way 是在路上。片里说某人挡了我的路，用的是 in my way。
意思是别无选择，后面常接 but to。片里是反问「你没别的选择吧」，其实是在逼对方接受条件。
