就像我刚才说的
As I was saying...Swimming with Sharks · 1994 — 第 7 / 16 章 · 5'24" · C1
办公室里气氛正僵,有人想 make it up to you(向你赔罪),把之前当着全办公室闹的误会翻过去,对方却不吃这套,还说他得 show a little backbone(拿出点骨气)。话锋一转,对方抛出条件:give action to get action(有来才有往),要你站到他这边。谈合作、赔罪、被人下最后通牒,这几句最实用。
办公室里气氛正僵,双方摊牌。有人开口道歉,想把在全办公室面前提出来的一件事 make it up to you(向你赔罪),却被对方顶了回去:You've used up yours. Let's not dwell on it.(你的机会用完了,别再揪着不放)。对方一边嘲这人不够 thick-skinned(脸皮厚),一边撂下 You gotta give action to get action(有来才有往)。真正的意图是 In short, I need you on my side(简而言之,我需要你站在我这边)。make it up to someone 是事后补偿、赔罪;dwell on it 是老想着、放不下;thick-skinned 是脸皮厚、扛得住批评。碰上道歉被怼、又被人拉拢的场面,这几句都能直接用。

就像我刚才说的
As I was saying...补偿你、向你赔罪
一位女制作人打电话到巴迪办公室,为之前的小误会道歉,提出请盖伊吃饭作为补偿,接着坦白自己需要巴迪的电话和剧本,想拉盖伊站到她这边。
About that little misunderstanding, why don't you let me make it up to you?把话说得很直
Look, I'm gonna be real blunt here.尽管我很不愿意承认
As much as I hate it, I need Buddy.流转到、最终落到
I need my calls to find their way onto his phone sheet. I need my scripts to go home with him on the weekends.简而言之
In short, I need you on my side.站在我这边
In short, I need you on my side.明白我的意思吗
See what I'm saying?把人晾着、暂时搁置;打电话时让人在线上干等
唐恩因为一个停车位的事一直被晾着,来找巴迪和解,开口就说不想再为这点小事被拖着,干脆重新谈一次。
I don't want to be put on hold over a parking spot, so why don't we just try this again?认可、相信这一套
Um... Buddy... doesn't believe in it.那就喝酒吧(拍板)
Fine. Drinks it is. Here's my card.被约满了
as powerful and as attractive and as pleasant-natured as yourself would be booked up for tonight.你猜怎么着
Well, guess what. I am now.让你看起来像
'Cause it really kind of makes you look like a schmuck.结果是、原来
Anyway, it turns out that Cyrus'不用道歉
No apology necessary.老想着、揪着某件事不放
巴迪假意大度地说每个人都可以犯错,但你的额度已经用完,还让盖伊别再纠结这件事,语气像宽容,其实是在下最后通牒。
You've used up yours. Let's not dwell on it.如果……我会很感激
Well, I would appreciate it if you didn't yell at me in front of the entire office.当着全办公室的面
Well, I would appreciate it if you didn't yell at me in front of the entire office.把这件事提出来
Well, I'm glad you brought this up.沟通渠道
properly if the lines of communication aren't open.把几件事讲清楚
let's make a few things clear.竟敢、有脸去
And yet you have the nerve to walk into my office and tell me... I...给我留点基本的尊重
At least allow me the courtesy of finishing what I have to say.你以为你是谁
Who do you think you are, you snot-faced little punk?抢破头也想要
There are thousands of people who would kill for your spot!拿出点骨气
Why can't you show a little backbone, huh? Huh?有来才有往
You gotta give action to get action.你是什么来头
So, Guy, what's your story?You gotta give action to get action.你得先有行动,才能换来回应。 把人际往来讲成力学:想得到回应,先付出动作。它不是温和的格言,而是上位者用来驱赶人的鞭子。
There are thousands of people who would kill for your spot!有几千人愿意为你的位置拼命! 用「替身遍地」制造压迫:你不是不可替代,是暂时被允许站在这。它把感恩变成恐惧。
If you were in my toilet bowl, I wouldn't bother flushing it.你要是在我马桶里,我都懒得冲你。 把轻蔑压进一个日常动作:连冲水都嫌多余,骂人不带脏字却极狠。
In short, I need you on my side.总之,我需要你站在我这边。 用 In short 收拢一长串诉求,最后落在一句直白的结盟请求上。它把人情往来拆成清清楚楚的利益,坦率得让人无法回避。
意思是老想着、揪着某件事不放,常用来劝人别再纠结。剧中对方说 Let's not dwell on it,就是让你翻篇,别总提已经过去的错。
可以说 You gotta give action to get action。直译是你得先有动作才有回应,谈合作、谈人情时用来提醒对方,想要回报就得先付出。
看语气。它本意是脸皮厚、扛得住批评,职场里常是劝人别太玻璃心。剧中却被拿来当面损人,后面还跟了一个脏字称呼。
意思是对某人补偿、赔罪,事做错了或让人受了委屈之后说。剧中有人想用这句话把之前当众闹的一场误会翻过去,但对方并不买账。
一是打电话时把对方挂在线路上干等,二是把人晾着、把事暂时搁置。剧中有人说不愿为一个停车位被 put on hold,两种意思都用得上。
