【跟着美剧练发音】老友记48

文本：

[Scene: Lamaze class. Susan is there. Each couple has a doll, for they have just finished learning how to change a diaper. And Ross rushes in.]

Ross: Hi. Sorry I’m late. Where’s, where’s Carol?

Susan: Stuck at school . Some parent-teacher thing. You can go. I'll get the information .

Ross: No... No... No. I think I should stay, I think we should both know what’s going on.

Susan: Oh, good. This’ll be fun.

Teacher: Alrighty. We’re gonna start with some basic third stage breathing exercises, so Mummies, why don't you get on your back ? And... coaches, you should be supporting Mummy’s head.

(Ross and Susan each gesture for the other to lie down.)

Ross and Susan: What? What? What?

Susan: I am supposed to be the mommy?

Ross: Okay, I’m gonna play my sperm¹ card one more time.

Susan: Look,  I don't see why I should have to miss out on the coaching training  just because I’m a woman 

Ross: I see. So what do you propose to do?

Susan: I will flip² you for it.

Ross: Flip me for it? No, no, no... heads, heads, heads!

Susan: (Triumphantly) On your back... Mom.

(Ross gets down like all the other mothers, cradled in Susan’s lap like all the other fathers.)

Teacher: Alright, Mommies,take a nice deep cleansing³ breath.
