【跟着美剧练发音】美剧美语798期

Louis: I’m not saying that I haven’t been charmed¹ /tʃɑ:rmd/ by Harvey, but it’s just so patronizing /'pætrənaiziŋ/ when you say that he can handle those things and “Louis, you can only handle this.” Jessica, I could have handled Gerald Tate.

Jessica: And I told you I disagree.

Louis: Why?

Jessica: Because—

Harvey: Because when you put two bullies² /'buliz/ in the same room together, things generally don’t go so well.

Louis: It’s 9:30. Nice of you to show up two hours after we open up for business. And I see that you’re also trying to look like a pimp /pimp/.

Harvey: My bad, Louis. I was out late last night. And when I woke up, this is the suit your wife picked out for me.

Louis: And that would be funny if I’d actually been married.

Jessica: Moving along.

Harvey: You’re not married?
