这场戏：车里逼搭档讲故事
第 2 章 · 共 23 章 · 3'40"
阿隆佐开车嫌搭档话多，一句 keep your mouth shut（闭嘴、别多话）把他噎回去，又逼他讲个故事解闷；杰克讲了查酒驾拦车的经历，连 light it up（拉响警灯警笛）都搬出来了，还被嫌无聊。想学美式搭档之间互怼、施压的口气，这几句够味。

阿隆佐开车载着杰克巡逻，嫌他话多、让自己看不成报纸，就用 keep your mouth shut（闭嘴、别多话）把他噎回去，再让他讲个故事解闷。杰克讲了值夜班时查酒驾拦车的经历：亮灯、鸣笛、现场测试、把醉汉铐起来，最后发现对方是取保候审的毒贩，正要去灭口。阿隆佐却嫌这故事无聊，追问他和女搭档的绯闻，还拿口袋里的钱开玩笑。下车换车时，杰克发现这车不是 motor pool（警局车队）里的。想学搭档互怼、讲故事和北美警察的日常用语，几个说法都用得上。

All right, well, it was a quiet night. We're rolling on Vanowen. I'm driving. This Acura, just a beautiful car. Comes out a side street. All over the median. In excess. I light it up, hit the wailer. Guy drives on like I'm invisible. All right. Plates run clean. So I field test and arrest. And I'm belting him in our unit. And Debbie's tossing his car. She calls me over to the vehicle. Fully loaded and locked.
好吧，那天确实很安静。 我们在瓦诺文街上巡逻，我开车。 有辆讴歌，那车真漂亮。 它从一条小街冲出来。 直接压过中央分隔带，超速得厉害。 我亮起警灯，拉响警笛，那家伙照开不误，当我是空气。 好，车牌一查是干净的。我做了现场测试，把他铐了，押进我们车里。 黛比在搜他的车。 她把我叫过去。 子弹上满，保险也开着。
下一章 · 03slap the taste out of your mouth狠狠一巴掌教训你这场戏：重罪拦截搜身字面是「把你的嘴闭紧」，意思是让人「闭嘴、别多话」，语气不太客气；剧里阿隆佐嫌杰克话多，就用它把人噎回去。
light it up。剧里讲巡逻时 I light it up, hit the wailer，就是亮起警灯、拉响警笛去拦车；也可以说 hit the lights。
指警局统一调度、停放车辆的车库或车队；剧中杰克一看就说这车不是从那儿来的，暗示这辆车不是局里配的，来路不一般。
on bail。剧中 Turns out this DUI is on bail for distribution，就是查酒驾那人竟是贩毒案取保候审出来的，正等着上庭。
可以说 tell me a story。阿隆佐就是用 Tell me a story 逼杰克开口，前面还甩一句 keep your mouth shut，语气是命令式的。
