Tom: "Nice suit."

衣服真好看啊。

Lynette: "Just hear me out. I was gonna take it back, I swear."

先聽我說完。我本來是要拿去退的，我發(fā)誓。

Tom: "But?"

但是？

Lynette: "But then I started thinking about it, and you know what? Ill be damned if Im gonna pitch to a roomful of people who are all wearing Armani and Vera Wang, while Im standing there with two-year-old breast milk crusted on my lapel."

然后我轉(zhuǎn)念一想，我覺得如果我要穿著翻領(lǐng)上還有兩年前母乳印的破套裝，去對著一屋子穿著阿瑪尼和維拉.王的人做推介，那我簡直太遜了。

Tom: "Lynette..."

勒奈特

Lynette: "And you know what else? I kicked ass in that meeting because of this suit."

你知道嗎？就因為穿著這套裝，我在推介會上的表現(xiàn)令他們刮目相看。

Tom: "It is a suit. Why are you so obsessed with it?"

不過是件套裝罷了，你至于這么癡迷嗎？

Lynette: "You cant explain obsession, Tom. It just is."

湯姆，癡迷本身就是個迷啊，它難以解釋。

Tom: "No, we are parents. We cant afford the luxury of obsessions."

我們既然已經(jīng)為人父母了，就不該再癡迷于奢侈品。

Lynette: "See? Thats where I think we have been making a terrible, terrible mistake."

你看，這就是我無法茍同的地方，我們以前真是大錯特錯了。

Tom: "What is this?"

這是什么玩意兒？

Lynette: "Sometimes we just need to get something that makes us happy. I know that sounds selfish, but Ive been thinking. It might make us better people and maybe even better parents."

有時候我們要學(xué)會及時行樂，我知道這聽上去很自私，可我想，這樣或許會讓我們脫胎換骨，甚至更出色的父母。

Tom: "No. No, Lynette, no. This is wrong."

不行，絕對不行，勒奈特，這行不通。

Lynette: "Carbon...fiber...shafts."

碳纖維高爾夫球桿。

Tom: "Wow. I feel like a better parent already. Oh, yeah!"

我的天啊，我似乎已經(jīng)是個更出色的家長了。
