Sal: Well, thank you, dimples.
Cameron: You better get that out of your system, 'cause in two hours, you're gonna be Mrs. Anthony
Lombardo.
Sal: Shh.
[Cameron chuckles]
Mitchell: So does this ltalian of yours cook?
Sal: In every room of the house, if you know what I mean! Ooh! [imitates bed squeaking] We have a
lot of sex.
Cameron: Yeah. Got it.
Mitchell: Okay, now let's have a proper toast. All right. To wild Sal.
Sal: Ow!
Mitchell: Yeah! You gave it a good run, but like every legendary gunslinger, there comes a time when
you need to holster your weapons and ride off into the sunset.

Sal: I did. I really did!
Cameron: You sure did.
Sal: Also, you know, I'm just getting married. I'm not dying.
Cameron: No, no. We're just happy you're happy. And we're excited that we're gonna get to see much
more of you now.
Mitchell: Yes. We'll be couple friends.
Cameron: Mm-hmm.
Mitchell: We'll go to movies.
Cameron: Take classes.
Mitchell: Oh, our game nights on Saturday-
Cameron: Huge.
Mitchell: They're epic.
Cameron: Yeah.
Mitchell: Do you play Cranium?

you! I need to take a whiz.

Cameron: I am so happy for her.
Mitchell: I think we might have freaked her out though.
Cameron: No, Mitchell. Come on. You're a smart man, but you are awful at reading people. Sal's been
different this week. That is a woman in love.
[glass shatters] [kissing]
Mitchell: She looks like a woman in love. Wow.
Jay: Look, nobody's as happy as I am about you loving the ladies. All I'm saying is you gotta pull back
a little.
Manny: Okay.
Gloria: Ay, Manny, this is all my fault. I am too free with my body. It was okay when you were a little
boy, but-
Jay: Was it?
Gloria: But now that you're a young man, and-
Manny: I didn't hear a word they said. All I could think about was Daliya. Every drawing, every poem,
every historical novel I wrote was for her. She was my muse. Toss in a body that doesn't quit, and I
think we got a soul mate.
muse: a goddess that inspires a creative artist, esp a poet (尤指给诗人带来灵感的)女神；创作女神
Jay: So there's a lot of other things you can draw. You've got your landscapes. You've got your bowls
of fruit. Trees.

Gloria: A barn. The ladies with the fruit on the head.
Jay: I said fruit.
Gloria: But you didn't say the ladies with the fruit on the head.
Jay: I'm trying to get him away from the ladies.
Gloria: Ah, good. Good. Good.
Luke: This is so stupid. What if I spill on her or accidentally brush my boob against her hand? I mean
her hand against my boob.
Phil: Dude, stay cool. You got this. I'm gonna be at the bar the whole time. If you start to panic, just
come get me.
Luke: Shh. There she is.
Phil: What was that?
Luke: I don't know. I've never heard it before.
Phil: Try not to let that happen again.
Simone: Hi, Luke.
Luke: Pretty good. I mean, hi, Simone. Uh, this is my Dad. Dad, this is Luke.
Simone: You're funny.
Luke: Looking.
Phil: Clutch.
Luke: What are you still doing here?
Sal: What the hell got into me?
Cameron: Besides the bartender's tongue?
Mitchell: Yes. Yes, well, that was a little inappropriate. But let's not overreact. It's perfectly natural to
have a panic attack before making a big life decision.
panic attack: an episode of acute and disabling anxiety associated with such physical symptoms as hyperventilation
and sweating 惊恐发作
Sal: What if it's the wrong decision? What if Tony's not the guy? What if he's the guy? Or him? He is
cute. When did he come in?
Cameron: Okay. You need to focus, Sal. You are about to make a sacred, lifelong commitment.

Sal: [screams] You are not making this better! [phone chirps] Oh, God, it's Tony. [sighs] I'm supposed
to pick him up and drive him to the wedding? Everybody shut up for a second! Okay, you know what?
I'm gonna marry him. What's the worst that can happen? I get a divorce. People do it all the time.
[chirps] Oh, you're suffocating me!
Cameron: It is not too late. You are not married yet.
Sal: You're right. [kissing]
Mitchell: Okay. That's good. Get it all out.
Claire: Here. Let me help you.
Alex: Okay, Mom? Mom. Mom. Oh, my God. Mom. I think I got it. I've been lugging this thing around for
10 years.
lug something + adv./prep.: to carry or drag something heavy with a lot of effor 用力拉；使劲拖；吃力地搬运
Claire: Okay. Well, you sure you don't want us to stay… and-and hear you play?
Alex: Mmm, that's okay.

Electric Light Orchestra: 电光乐队(ELO)，参见122.文化详解4.
Claire: Don't be so mean to your sister.
Alex: No, that's our band's name.
Haley: So, you wanna go back to that vegan place?
Claire: Ooh. Leather jacket. Can't take the hate.
Gabby: Haley!
Haley: Gabby! What are you doing here?
Gabby: I just stopped in for a bump of coffee before I meet up with Zoe and those guys at Noodlecat.
Do you wanna go?
a bump of: 一陀
Claire: So what's-What's Noodlecat?
Haley: Oh, it's this really cool Asian place that sells, like, a million different kinds of noodles. And
hopefully, no cat.
Claire: Well, that sounds cool.
Haley: So you don't mind if I go?
Claire: Oh, I kind of thought we had plans.
Haley: Oh, yeah. You're right. So I can meet you guys there after. How long are you gonna be there?
Claire: No, it's fine. It's fine. Go. I'll stay and watch Alex.
Haley: Oh, now I feel bad.
Claire: Mmm.
Haley: Love you! Mwah.
[TV: whistle blows] [crowd cheering]
Valerie: Excuse me. You're Luke's Dad, aren't you?
Phil: Mm-hmm.

Phil: Oh.
Valerie: You were incredibly limber.
limber [ˈlɪmbər]: Someone who is limber is able to move or bend their body easily. 灵活柔软的
Phil: Ah, when you wear the right pants. Please, sit down.
Valerie: Thank you.
Phil: Yeah.
Valerie: So, how is the big date going?
Phil: I don't know.
Valerie: Simone was so nervous. When they were chatting on the computer, I had to write everything
for her.
Phil: That's so funny. I did the same thing for Luke.
Valerie: So the whole time, we were talking to each other?
Phil: Wait, does that make this our date?
Valerie: Well, a good father, funny, handsome. A girl could do a lot worse.
Cameron: You know what, Mitchell? Forgive me if my Missouri is showing, but what she is doing is
not marriage. It's a mockery of marriage. It's mockerage. And I'm gonna stop it.
mockery ['mɔkəri]: If someone mocks you, you can refer to their behaviour or attitude as mockery. 嘲讽
Mitchell: No. No, you're not. I can't help but think you're infusing the situation with just a touch of your
own frustration.

with it. 注入(某种特性)
Cameron: Why, because we've built a life together for the last 10 years? Because we're raising a

Cameron: Well, you know what? She can't get married if the best man doesn't hand over the wedding
ring.
Mitchell: You wouldn't.
Cameron: Yes, I would.
Mitchell: Where is it? Give it to me. Give me the ring.
Cameron: Stop. Stop.
Mitchell: You have to give me-
Sal: Well, this is a mystery solved. Thank you! Okay. Let's go do this.
Mitchell: Okay.
Sal: How hot does Tony look?
Cameron: On a scale of one to bartender?
Mitchell: Rein it in, Cam.
