打工姐妹花第二季 第5期:探望监狱里的父亲

 　　Wow, this prison's a lot better than the last one. It's more like a country club. 这个监狱比上次那个好太多了。简直就像乡村俱乐部。

　　I mean, I think I saw a list for mixed doubles where we signed in. 签到时，我好像看到了不少混双球员名单。

　　Max, I know your idea of a country club's an abandoned car in the woods, but look around. 麦克斯，我知道你觉得森林里的弃置车辆也算是乡村俱乐部，但你看这里。

　　All right, so it's a rough country club, where the strongest golfers make the caddies their bitch. 好嘛，这是一间硬汉乡村俱乐部，强壮高球员会把杆弟当小妞搞。

　　Max, my father's in prison. Be more sensitive and stuff². 麦克斯，我爸爸是在坐牢。考虑一下人家心情什么的嘛

　　Look, I get it. You're protective³. 我懂，他是你亲爹。

　　How's my little girl? I'm great, daddy. 我的乖女最近好吗？挺好啊，老爸

　　Yeah. I like the new uniform, and it isn't at all prison-y. 你这套新制服不错哦，完全没有囚服的感觉。

　　Yeah. I don't know what's worse: being locked up or looking like you work at a Banana Republic. 我也不知道哪样比较惨，是被关呢还是穿的像香蕉共和国店员一样呢。

　　Now, wait a minute. This can't be Max. 等等，你不会就是麦克斯吧。

　　The stories I've heard, I was expecting more of a truck driver. 以前听你的事，我还以为你会是卡车司机型的猛女呢。

　　Hey, Brian, you might wanna look the other way. 布莱恩，你头先别过去吧。

　　I think Max is here to break me out. Isn't that right, Max? 麦克斯是来带我越狱的。对吧，麦克斯？
