英语PK台 第300期:从ABC开始扔掉字幕看《老友记》(71)(在线收听

   地点:乔伊的公寓

  人物:莫妮卡,乔伊,菲比,瑞秋
  事件:莫妮卡今年的感恩节不准备做火鸡,乔伊为此发表了一番“能吃”论。
  Monica: All right, Okay, just so you know, I'm not gonna make a turkey this year.
  Joey: What?
  Monica: Well Phoebe doesn't eat turkey…
  Joey: Phoebe!
  Phoebe: Turkey's are beautiful, intelligent animals!
  Joey: No they're not! They're ugly and stupid and delicious! Plus, eating them is like a tradition. It goes back to the first Thanksgiving when the Indians sat down with the cowboys.
  Monica: All right! Okay, it's not just Phoebe. Will's still on a diet, Chandler doesn't eat Thanksgiving food, and Rachel's having her aversion to poultry. Anyway, it just doesn't seem worth it to make a whole turkey for just three people.① Okay? It's a lot of work.
  Joey: But you gotta have turkey on Thanksgiving! I mean, Thanksgiving with no turkey is like—like Fourth of July with no apple pie! Or Friday with no two pizzas!
  Monica: All right fine! If it means that much to you! But just—there's gonna be a ton left over.
  Joey: No, there won't! I promise I will finish that turkey!
  Monica: All right, you're telling me you can eat an entire turkey in just one sitting?
  Joey: That's right! 'Cause I'm a Tribbiani! And this is what we do! I mean we may not be great thinkers or world leaders, we don't read a lot or run very fast, but damnit! We can eat!
