这场戏：牌桌上听人说真相
第 19 章 · 共 23 章 · 4'05"
阿隆佐带杰克去牌局，桌上的人却悄悄把真相告诉杰克：阿隆佐上个星期在拉斯维加斯打死了一个有来头的人，现在欠了俄国人一百万。他们说他 I think Alonzo played you for a fool（把你当傻子耍），还说 There is nothing out there for you（外面没有你的路）。想学牌桌黑话和背后说人，这段最带劲。

nothing out there 外面没有机会played you for a fool 把你当傻子耍your deal 该你发牌
❝ 独白 · 18 句 「他弄到的是血钱」：blood money
a hothead 火爆脾气的人pay up 把钱还清、交上blood money 血钱、沾人命换来的钱
阿隆佐把杰克带到一场牌局，桌上几个人一边打牌一边插科打诨，还让杰克把枪拿出来看。牌桌上真正的话题却是阿隆佐：有人说 Alonzo played you for a fool（阿隆佐把你当傻子耍了），还有人告诉杰克 There is nothing out there for you（外面没有你的路）。接着他们道出真相——阿隆佐上星期在拉斯维加斯打死了一个有来头的人，现在欠俄国人一百万，今晚必须还清；他抢了罗杰才凑到这笔 blood money（血钱），要是午夜前不带着现金到市中心，他就死定了。想学牌桌黑话和背后说人的英文，这几句都很带劲。
