【跟着美剧练发音】破产姐妹41

Max, I was just talking to the smart couples in booth¹ two.

I know they're smart because they're the first people in here

who ever ordered the croque monsieur as croque monsieur

and not "crock monster."

They wanna meet the woman who made the cupcakes.

I told them you'd be right over.

- Go! They're so nice. - No, they're not nice.

They're trendy, blood-sucking locusts²

who come into this neighborhood to pillage³ and destroy

everything I care about.

I felt the same way when the Hilton sisters

crashed my 21st birthday.
