打工姐妹花第二季 第153期:第一个私人派对

 This is it, Max. The first private party we've booked in our cupcake shop. 麦克斯，成啦。这是我们小店接的第一个私人派对单呢。

What? You said it was a private party, and this is a party I keep near my privates. 干嘛，你说私人派对啊，这是我放在"私"处旁的"派对"。

Fine, but they can't smell it on your breath, so eat a mint after. 随你吧，不过不能让人家闻到酒味，等会吃颗薄荷糖吧。

No need. It's peppermint¹ schnapps, 'cause I think ahead. 不必，这刚好是薄荷杜松子酒，看我多深谋远虑啊。

I think this calls for a "first party" dance. 这值得来一段"首次派对"舞吧。

First par-tay. Who gonna have a first par-tay. We gon' have a first par-tay. 首次派对。谁首次要派对啦。我们首次要派对啦。

That's the exact same dance you did when the humane² society sent you free puppy address labels. 保护动物协会上次送你狗狗地址条的时候，你不也跳这支舞吗。

Address labels. Who got doggies on an envelope. Who got doggies on an envelope. 地址条。谁家信封上有狗狗地址条啊。谁家信封上有狗狗地址条啊。

I need another sip³ of this. Wish I had something stronger. 我得再喝一口啦。真希望我有更烈的酒。

Max, I'm sorry. I can't help it. 麦克斯，不好意思啦，我忍不住嘛。

I'm just so excited my genius marketing⁴ ideas are finally starting to pay off. 想到我天才般的营销策略终于有成效，我就兴奋得不得了嘛。

Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! 安静，安静！安静，都安静！

If you aren't listening, Cupcake Max can't teach you how to decorate. 你们不好好听话，小蛋糕麦克斯姐姐怎么教你们弄装饰啊。
