庭审引错先例：throw in your cards

庭上，首席律师迟到，开口却把先例引错，一句 no bearing（没有关系、不影响）当场把话堵死。庭后有人用 throw in your cards（弃牌；认输退出）比喻感情：赢不了就收手。想学法庭上的硬话和分手时的狠话，这两句都值得记。

发生了什么

庭审开始，首席律师迟迟不到，有人建议再等五分钟就另选 lead counsel（首席律师）。他赶到后把得克萨斯州诉约翰逊案当作先例，庭上指出那是最高法院言论自由案，跟本案没有关系，一句 no bearing（没有关系、不影响）把话堵死。随后有人提出 take over（接手），庭上接着谈到人为操纵选区和按种族分开学生。庭后两个人摊牌，一句 throw in your cards（弃牌；认输退出）把感情说成一手赢不了的牌。想学法律场合的正式表达，也想学分手时带比喻的狠话，可以看这几分钟。

throw in your cards

弃牌；认输退出fold; quit a losing hand

说得好像

看懂「庭审引错先例」

发音重点

  • so sorry — 重音压在 so 和 sorry 上，拖一点，歉意才显出来。
  • pretty quick — pretty 的 t 轻弹，别把两个音节咬死。
Someone saying something meaningful would please us a great deal.

有人说点真正有意义的东西，我们会非常感激。 礼貌外壳里藏刀：meaningful 反衬前面全是废话。

Usually you have to know something about a case to give an opening statement.

通常，你得对案子有所了解，才能作开场陈述。 不说你无知，只摆常识，挖苦更狠。

I learned it from you, Mike.

这是你教我的，迈克。 六个词把责任反推回去，冷静又致命。

Rule number one: Throw in your cards the moment you know they can't win.

第一条规则：一旦知道赢不了，就立刻弃牌。 把分手的冷酷包进扑克规则，像格言一样好记。

I mean, I'd say good luck, but I know it's not about luck in your game.

我是说，我本想祝你好运，但我知道你那行靠的不是运气。 祝福说到一半转成看透，收得轻，余味重。

关于这一章的问题

no bearing 是什么意思？

意思是「没有关系、不影响」；戏里那句 that has no bearing in the premises，指所引的最高法院言论自由案跟本案无关。

「弃牌」英语怎么说？

throw in your cards。戏里把它当成第一条规矩：一旦知道这手牌赢不了，就马上把牌扔了；同一段里这句牌桌规矩被用来解释离开的决定。

「说甩就甩」用英语怎么讲？

drop me like that。戏里问 I came home and you were gone. You were just gonna drop me like that?，就是「我回到家，你已经走了。你就打算这么把我甩了？」

「首席律师」和「接手」在戏里分别怎么用英语说？

lead counsel 是「首席律师」；take over 是「接手」。戏里有人建议再等五分钟就另选 lead counsel，也有人说联系不上麦克德莫特，就自己来 take over。

oral arguments 是什么意思？

指「当庭口头辩论」。戏里法庭说事实已确认、书状已审阅，接着让原告首席律师现在开始口头辩论。

「说得好像」英语怎么说？

make it sound as if。戏里说 You make it sound as if it was my decision，就是「你这话说得好像那是我的决定」；用来反驳对方把事实说成另一个版本。
