这场戏：门口来了个陌生人
第 10 章 · 共 27 章 · 4'25"
地震后的早上，一群人吵醒了：丹尼把食物全吃了，有人怀疑大家昨晚 drop acid（吃迷幻药）了。等乔纳说起昨晚的惨状，一句 there were a lot of fatalities（死了不少人），所有人立刻安静。紧接着门外有人敲门喊 You've got to let me in（你得让我进去）。想学怎么说「死亡人数」和「让我进去」，这段早晨很典型。
「出了些很惨的事」：fatalities 是「死亡人数、遇难者」
stay seated 坐好别动a lot of fatalities 很多伤亡messed up 离谱的、一团糟的
❝ 独白 · 6 句 丹尼的灭口生意经
先送好处再开口要命，条件句一串接一串，把人命算进财报里。
「你得让我进去」：let me in 是「让我进去」
let me in 让我进去Hang on a second 等一下boarded up 用木板封住a few seconds ago 几秒钟前
地震后的早上，大家被吵醒：丹尼居然活着，还把为获救准备的食物吃了个精光；有人打趣说你们昨晚 drop acid（吃迷幻药）了吧。乔纳用认真的口气报告昨晚出了大事，there were a lot of fatalities（死了不少人）。话音刚落，门外有人敲门求救，喊 You've got to let me in（你得让我进去），说外面已经乱成一团；屋里人却吵起来：刚 boarded up（用木板把房子封起来），难道第一个上门的就放进来？有人提议投票，最后决定放他进来。这里能学到：fatalities 是「死亡人数、遇难者」；drop acid 是「吃迷幻药」；boarded up 是「用木板把…封起来」。想聊灾后求生、陌生人求助的场景，这些表达都用得上。

“This man was alive a few seconds ago.”
这个人几秒钟前还活着。
用最平常的过去时陈述生死，平静得可怕，比任何尖叫都重。
This ... was alive a few seconds ago
目睹骤变后想让人面对现实时用，语气要克制；别拿来开玩笑或在丧亲者面前说。
he was fine a minute ago ／ he was standing here moments ago
literary
was alive 轻读，重音压在 a few seconds。
The driver was talking a few seconds ago; now everything changed. 司机几秒前还在说话，转眼一切都变了。
“We can't play soccer with his head.”
我们总不能拿他的头当球踢。
用一句荒唐的禁令划出人伦底线，黑色幽默里混着真实的惊骇。
We can't ... with his/her ...
熟人之间用荒诞方式提醒别越界时可用；涉及真实伤亡的场合绝对别说。
we are not doing that ／ that's where I draw the line
口语
can't 的 t 吞掉，重音落在 soccer 和 head。
We can't put that photo online; he'd never forgive us. 那张照片不能发，他会记恨我们的。
“If pot's legalized my business will suffer.”
要是大麻合法化，我的生意就要垮。
一句真实条件句把荒唐的杀机包装成商业逻辑，越理性越好笑。
If ... is legalized, my business will suffer
谈政策落到自己生意时用；真讨论法律或政策，语气要更严谨，别学这里的玩笑。
if that passes, I'm finished ／ legalizing it would kill my trade

“Seth, that's a better performance than you've given in your last six movies.”
塞斯，这比你最近六部电影里的表演都好。
把当场的一次表演夸成比过去六部电影都好，职业性地损人，狠又好笑。
That's a better ... than you've given in your last six ...（明夸暗损的比较句）
朋友一本正经演戏、你想拆台时能用；对靠这行吃饭的同事说会真的伤人，不要用。

下一章 · 11hear me out听我把话说完这场戏：讲天启理论被拆台指「死亡人数、遇难者」，是新闻和正式场合常用的词。原文 there were a lot of fatalities 就是「死了不少人」。说伤亡时用它比 people died 更书面。
drop acid。原文 You guys dropped acid, didn't you? 就是「你们嗑药了吧？」drop 在这里是「吃下」，acid 指迷幻药 LSD，属于俚语。
指「用木板把门窗封起来」。原文说 we just boarded up this whole house to keep everyone out，就是「我们刚把整栋房子封死，不让任何人进来」。飓风、骚乱前很常用。
口语里指「很烂、糟透了」，比 bad 更直接。原文 This guy fucking sucks 就是「这家伙烂透了」。东西坏、事情糟、人讨厌都能用，非正式场合别乱用。
let me in。原文 You've got to let me in 就是「你得让我进去」，语气很急。let someone in 就是「让某人进来」，进门、进门禁都能用。
