[Susan's House]
(There's a knock on the door as Susan sits on her living room floor, going through decorative boxes.裝飾盒)
Susan: "Who is it?"誰呀？
Edie: "It's Edie!"伊迪。
Susan: "Oh, Edie, not now. I'm kind of busy."依迪，現在不行，我正忙著呢。
(Edie walks into the living room.)
Edie: "Hi."
Susan: "Or just come on in."要不進來吧。
Edie: "What are you doing?"你在幹什麼“
Susan: "I decided that my life is way too complicated, and so I'm simplifying. I am getting rid of the clutter."我發現我的人生有點太過錯綜複雜，我想簡化一下，把垃圾扔掉。
(She puts on an orange and lace hat and turns to face Edie.)
Edie: "Ooh."
Susan: "I was on vacation. Made sense at the time. Okay, not to be rude, but is there a reason you're here?"我那時正在度假，戴這帽子還挺合適的，我無意冒犯，可是你來有什麼事？
Edie: "Look, I'm feeling badly about what you're going through with Mike. And don't worry. I'm not going to date him." 你和麥克之間發生的事我很遺憾。別擔心，我不會和他約會的。
Susan: "It doesn't matter anymore."這已經無所謂了。
Edie: "Well, don't get me wrong. I still have every intention of sleeping with him. Some mountains are just meant to be climbed."別誤會，我還是非常渴望和他發生關係，有些山是註定有人去征服的。（ 言下之意麥克是一個很有魅力男人）
Susan: "I got to learn to keep my doors locked."看來我得把我家門鎖好。
Edie: "How long have you been sitting here?"你在這坐多久了？
Susan: "I don't know. Five minutes, give or take three hours."不知道，5分鐘到3個小時。
give or take
1.指數字，差不多，大概
It cost £200, give or take .花費大約200塊。（比200少一點或多一點）
2.give是給的意思，take則是“拿”，give andt ake有給有拿，引伸為“有商有量”，妥協折衷。Those whodon't appreciate give and take are not likely to listento others. 那些不喜歡妥協折衷的人不太可能聽取別人的意見。
Edie: "That's it. Get up. Get dressed."夠了，起來，換衣服
Susan: "Why?"為什麼？
Edie: "Beause you're coming with me.
It's time to get wasted. Happy hour started forty-five minutes ago."因為你要和我出去，該出去瀟灑一下了（指去酒吧喝個爛醉喝個痛快）。快樂時光45分鐘前就開始了。
口語學習： get wasted=get drunk 可跟“浪費”沒啥關係，是指喝醉了/喝高了，爛醉如泥的！
Susan: "Why would I go anywhere with you?"我為什麼要跟你去？
Edie: "Because that's what normal women do when they get depressed. They put on short skirts, they go to bars with their girlfriends."因為那是一個正常女人在傷心時都會做的事。穿上短裙和女朋友去酒吧
Susan: "Wow."
Edie: "Oh, come on. It'll be fun, I swear. Come on. Come on.”快來，會很有趣的。來起來。
(She begins dragging Susan by the feet.)
Susan: "Why do you even care?"你為什麼要關心我？
Edie: "I never said I cared. It's just...well, I...I guess I know what it's like to have your heart stomped on."
我沒說關心。只是......
我瞭解心受傷的滋味。
Susan: "Okay. All right. Give me a minute. I'll go change my clothes."
好吧，等我幾分鐘，我去換衣服。
Edie: "And don't forget to do something with that skanky hair. You're a little scary-looking."
別忘了打理一下你那亂糟糟的頭髮。你看起來有點嚇人。
