Dan: Maybe it's never too late for a bold¹ gesture.

我们今晚做什么?或许现在大胆行动还不算晚。

Nate，嘿。你怎么来了? 我以为你…... 你不是应该在准备吗？

Nate: I’m sorry to bother you. it's, um, do you have a minute?

很抱歉来打扰你，你有时间吗？

Serena: Yeah, of course. come in.

当然，进来吧。

Nate: thanks.

谢谢。

Serena: Maybe it's old. you know, left over from the '90s or something, from some night at limelight or the tunnel, our parents did way worse stuff² than we do.

或许是年纪大了吧，明白吗，这是90年代或更久的时候留下来的老式做法，就像刚有白炽灯和隧道的年代。我们的父母处理这些事情比我们更难。

Nate: It's not old, and it makes total sense. I think he's having some money problems.

与那无关，这完全说得通。我觉得他有资金问题。

Serena: Well, have you asked him about it?

你有问过他吗？

Nate:Yeah. I just wish, you know, I wish he'd be honest with me.

是的, 我只希望，我希望他能跟我坦白。

It's like he and my mom... They made some secret pact³ to act like robots.

好像他和妈妈串通好了...... 好象他们有什么秘密协议，要像机器人一样演戏，

Serena: Yeah, well, I don't think that pact is so secret. I think all of our parents signed it.

是的，我不认为他们保密得很好。我想所有父母都签过这个协议。

Nate: But I’m not a little kid anymore. He doesn't have to shut me out.

可我不是小孩子了, 他不该把我排斥在外。

Serena: Look, if what you think is right, he's probably really scared. Maybe you have to tell him how you feel more than once for him to really hear you, you know?

你瞧,如果你想的没错，他可能很害怕。或许你该多跟他说说你的感受，让他知道你的真正先发,明白吗?

Hey, don't give up, okay? You should probably go. You know, I’ve gotta get ready and stuff.

嘿，别放弃，好吗？你该走了。我也该准备一下了。

Nate:Yeah, me, too. Um... look, thanks for just listening.

是啊，我也是，恩...... 谢谢你听我说这些。

Serena: That's fine. yeah, don't worry about it.

没什么，没关系的。

Nate: Chuck just wanted a bump⁴, and Blair's phone was turned off . So it, um, really means a lot.

Chuck只想着抽大麻，Blair手机又没开，所以... 这对我真的很重要。

Serena: Yeah, anytime, Nate. I’ll see you tonight, okay?

随时都可以的，Nate，我们晚上见，好吗？

Nate: All right. I’ll see ya. Bye.

好的，再见，拜。
