这场戏：失恋后兄弟式打气
第 8 章 · 共 17 章 · 3'10"
派对结束后回程，迈克一直自我怀疑，说自己没魅力、女孩看不上他。特伦特急了：Baby, you are so money（宝贝，你太抢手了，你自己都不知道），又说 you take yourself outta the game（是你自己把自己弄出局的），劝他别 beating yourself up（一味自责）。想给朋友打气、想说别跟自己过不去，这几句最地道。

派对散场后，迈克还是一副没自信的样子：老实说他不喜欢克丽丝蒂，对扮桃乐丝的女孩倒有点心动，可他觉得人家根本没看上自己。特伦特一路给他打气，说两个姑娘都觉得他特别 money（有魅力），问题出在他自己——他 take himself outta the game（自己把自己弄出局了），一跟女孩聊小狗和冰淇淋，关系就落到 friendship（做朋友）那头。他劝迈克别老 beat yourself up（一味自责），想想自己已经拿到电影里的角色，而前女友不过是在卖废铁、跟一个赶马车的混。想安慰失恋的朋友、想劝人别钻牛角尖，这些说法都能直接用。

“Baby, you are so money, and you don't even know it.”
宝贝，你太抢手了，你自己都不知道。
把 money 当形容词夸人，一句就把兄弟情和自信都给了。
You are so ... and you don't even know it.
夸朋友却被对方低估自己时用；对长辈或客户别说。
You're so good at this and you don't see it. ／ You've got it, and you don't even know it.
口语
so money 重读，know it 收得轻快。
You are so good at this, and you don't even know it. 你在这事上特别行，自己却不知道。
“You're better off without this girl. You gotta trust me on this, Mike.”
没有这姑娘，你只会过得更好。这事你得信我，迈克。
把分手重新说成升级，一句顶一堆安慰。
You're better off without ...
朋友走不出来、需要一句硬话时用；当事人还在气头上先别说。
You're better off without him. ／ Life is better without that whole mess.
口语
better off 连读，trust me on this 放慢强调。
You're better off without a boss like that. 没有那种老板，你只会更好。
“Why, so you can sit around your stuffy apartment beating yourself up over it?”
怎么，好让你窝在那个闷死人的公寓里，为这事一个劲儿自责？
一句反问把自怜的画面拍在桌上，损得又准又好笑。
Why, so you can ... ?
熟人拿对方的自怜开涮时用；对正在崩溃的人会太狠。
Why, so you can feel sorry for yourself all day? ／ So you can sit home and mope?
口语
stuffy apartment 重读，句尾 over it 上扬。
Why, so you can stay home all weekend feeling sorry for yourself? 怎么，好让你整个周末待在家自怨自艾？
“You're doing what you love to do. What the hell is she doing now?”
你在做自己热爱的事。她现在又在干什么？
先把朋友抬起来，再一句反问把前任比下去，安慰的力道全在这组对比里。
You're doing what you love. What the hell is ... doing now?
安慰失恋的人、强调对方其实过得更好时能用；对着还没放下的人反复说会显得刻薄，别用。
You're chasing what you love. What is she doing with her life? ／ You're living your dream. What has she got going on?
口语
doing what you love 连读，What the hell 重读，doing now 收尾上扬。
You're building something real. What the hell is he doing now? 你在做实实在在的事。他现在又混成什么样了？
Oh, Mike, please! You're the fun-lovin', outgoing party guy... and you're sweatin' some lawn jockey. Jesus Christ! I'm tellin' you, man. You're better off without this girl. You gotta trust me on this, Mike.
哦，迈克，得了吧！你可是那个爱玩、爱热闹的派对达人…… 结果你却在为那么个马夫急得团团转。 天哪！我跟你说，哥们儿。 没有这姑娘，你只会过得更好。这事你得信我，迈克。
