救援 高手
电波诚译
第三季 第五集
就是救援高手 is "Nathan for You."
最近 烟民的日子并不好过 Life isn't easy for smokers these days
遍及美国各地的禁烟法令 as smoking bans throughout America
导致室外成了可以吸烟的唯一场所 have made the outdoors the only option for lighting up.
但受创最严重的是酒吧 But hit worst of all has been the bars.
酒吧业主Ellen Sancer And proprietors like Ellen Sancer
在加利福尼亚帕萨迪纳经营着1881俱乐部 of the 1881 Club in Pasadena, California,
声称吸烟限令导致了她的利润骤降 claim that smoking restrictions have caused her profits to plummet.
我们流失了大量的顾客 We lost a lot of our customers.
1881俱乐部店主
我们的生意缩减了一半 Our business went down by half.
作为烟民 她个人也不满意 As a smoker herself, she's not happy.
于是我带着计划拜访了Ellen So I paid Ellen a visit with a way
或许能让她重回那些盆盈钵满的光辉岁月 she might be able to return to those profitable glory days.
在我看来 In my opinion,
烟民不应该被当作二等公民来区别对待 smokers shouldn't be treated like second-class citizens.
当然 Absolutely.
再说了 相比于其他人 If anything, they should be treated better
烟民更应得到优待 因为他们死得更早 than the rest of us because they're gonna die so young.
至少也要跟其他人同等待遇 Or at least as well as the rest of them.
没错 所以你认为应当允许人们 Right, so you think people should be allowed
- 在这里吸烟吗 - 是的 - to smoke in here? - Yeah.
我有个办法或许可行 Well, I might have a way to make that happen.
好的 Okay.
目前 加州的法律禁止在商业场所吸烟 Right now, California state law prohibits smoking in a business
除非吸烟是戏剧作品的情节中 unless it happens to be part of a theatrical production
戏剧作品，如果吸烟是故事中不可或缺的一部分
不可或缺的一部分 where smoking is integral to the plot.
如果Ellen在酒吧里增加一个小型观众区 So if Ellen added a small audience section to her bar
并且将每位顾客 and then classified every patron
归为自由形式戏剧中的演员 as an actor in a free-form play,
那么1881俱乐部将成为这儿唯一一个 the 1881 Club would become the only drinking hole in town
人们可以合法吸烟的酒吧 where people could legally smoke.
这或许可行 That could be possible.
我从来没想过要那样做 I never thought about turning it around that way.
大多数剧院都很糟糕 Well, most theater is terrible.
我是见过一些挺烂的剧院 I have seen a few bad ones, yeah.
是啊 说不定一个满是烟民的酒吧 Yeah, so who's to say a bar filled with smokers
可以提供新颖实验的戏剧体验呢 can't be a boundary-pushing theatrical experience?
- 没错 - 从法律的角度看 - Right. - In the eyes of the law.
这主意不错 It's an idea.
这主意确实不错 It's definitely an idea.
Ellen感到非常兴奋 Ellen was thrilled at the prospect
有望使烟民们重返酒吧 of bringing smokers back to her bar,
所以第二天 so the next day,
我让我的团队搬了两个剧院的座椅 I had my team bring in a couple of theater seats
来打造一个小型观众区 to create a small audience section
并拉起了幕布 and then threw up a curtain
来完整呈现剧院体验 to complete the theater experience.
我还为这部戏起了一个名字 I also chose a title for the play,
<允许吸烟> "Smokers Allowed"
如此一来也便于吸引顾客 That would conveniently double to attract clientele,
我还在门上挂了块牌子 then put up a sign on the door
告知顾客一旦进入这间酒吧 informing patrons that by entering the bar,
进入此酒吧 即代表你同意 在名为<允许吸烟> 的戏剧中出演
他们便在法律上同意成为戏剧中的演员 they're legally agreeing to be actors in a theatrical production.
当夜幕降临 So when nighttime came,
我去了附近的一些酒吧散播消息 I headed to some other bars in the area to get word spreading
告诉他们洛杉矶新的吸烟胜地 about L.A.'s hottest new smoking destination.
在这你得到外面抽烟啊 You got to smoke outside here, huh?
是啊
嗯 你们去过1881俱乐部么 Yeah, have you been to 1881 Club?
1881俱乐部…
他们允许在酒吧里吸烟 They allow you to smoke there.
他们为啥能允许吸烟的？
像是…
法律漏洞之类的…？
对 法律漏洞 Yeah, a loophole.
是什么法律漏洞？
戏剧法 Theater law.
哦真的吗？
是的 Yeah.
好吧
我的卖力推销似乎奏效了 My promotional efforts seemed to be working...
好嘞 烟民一条心 All right, smokers unite.
因为几分钟内 顾客们便来到1881俱乐部 Because, within minutes, customers began arriving at the 1881 Club
想要当晚能在室内合法吸烟 for a night of legal indoor smoking.
作为最后的防范措施 As a final precaution,
我从戏院区招募了两位女士 I had two women recruited from the theater district
她们对这部激动人心的新戏很感兴趣 who were interested in seeing an exciting new play.
- 所以是两位吗 - 两位 - So for two? - For two.
好的 你们运气真好 Okay, you're in luck.
我们还有两个前排座位空着呢 We have two front-row seats still available.
太好了 Very cool.
我知道从法律上说 I knew an audience would be the final piece
观众是使我作品合法化的最后一步 to legitimize my production in the eyes of the law.
所以女士们在观众席坐下后 So with the women in their seats,
表演也是时候开始了 it was time to begin the show.
好的 欢迎二位 All right, welcome.
非常感谢你们的出席 Thank you so much for coming.
我们花了很多功夫筹备这部戏 So it took a lot of work to get this play off the ground.
我不想多说了 I don't want to say too much
因为我不想剧透 我只想告诉你们 'cause I don't want to spoil anything, but all I'll say is,
希望你们能拥有和我们一样愉快的经历 I hope you enjoy this as much as we enjoyed making it.
闲话不说 请欣赏<允许吸烟> So without further ado, "Smokers Allowed."
我的计划很成功 My plan was working great.
人们现在可以自由地吸烟 People could now smoke freely
酒吧也无需担心承担任何法律后果 without the bar having to worry about any legal repercussions.
而观众们坐在角落 And with the audience shoved away in the corner,
几乎没有任何顾客注意到她们 hardly any customers seemed to notice they were there.
最棒的是 我从没见Ellen这么高兴过 Best of all, I had never seen Ellen look happier.
所以一小时二十分钟后 So after an hour and 20 minutes
当酒吧里的人开始减少 when the bar crowd started to dwindle,
我决定拉上幕布 宣布演出结束 I decided to close the curtain and say the play was over.
好了 结束了 All right, so that's it.
非常感谢你们的出席 Thank you so much for coming.
希望你们能喜欢<允许吸烟> I hope you enjoyed "Smokers Allowed."
这是一个成功的夜晚 It was a successful evening,
但随后发生了我从未预料到的事 but then something happened that I never expected.
观众们似乎真的挺喜欢这部戏 The audience actually seemed to enjoy the play.
噢 他们太棒了 Oh, man, they were awesome.
- 对 对 很棒 - 简直太棒了 - Yeah, yeah, they were. - They were awesome.
这部作品很有意思 It's so funny 'cause it's, like,
某种程度上 它空无一物但又极为深刻 so nothing in a way but incredibly profound.
山姆·夏普德 美国剧作家 曾获普利策戏剧奖
它让我想起了山姆·夏普德 It reminded me of Sam Shepard.
我不知道该怎么解读观众反应 I didn't really know what to make of this.
毕竟 这些女士可能是十足的怪人 After all, these ladies could be total kooks.
但如果刚刚发生的一切 But if what happened in there
不知怎地具有真正的戏剧价值 somehow had genuine theatrical value,
那么这可能成为1881俱乐部全新的创收来源 it could be a whole new source of revenue for the 1881 Club.
允许抽烟
所以那周晚些时候 我安排了会面 So later that week, I arranged a meeting
见了格伦代尔社区学院的 with the chair of the theater department
戏剧系主任 at Glendale Community College
看看我的作品<允许吸烟> to find out if I was actually onto something
是否真的有戏剧价值 with my play, "Smokers Allowed."
那个独自一人的男人特别显眼 The guy by himself stands out to me
格伦代尔社区学院戏剧系主任
因为他看起来很孤独 because he looks lonely.
那对情侣也很显眼 因为我感觉 The couple stands out to me because it tells a story
他们或许正处于一段新恋情中 that maybe they're in a new relationship...
- 嗯哼 - 我认为好奇心 - Uh-huh. - And I think that curiosity
是促使我继续看下去的动力 is what makes me want to continue to watch.
你认为这有戏剧价值吗 Do you think this has theatrical merit?
当然 这算是"生活片段"类型剧 Yeah, you know, this is "Slice of life" Theater,
我认为它在这方面很有价值 and for that aspect, I think it's important.
哇哦 Wow.
我很惊讶Jeanette在我的剧作中看到了价值 I was amazed that Jeanette saw value in my play...
让人想起了约翰·帕特里克·尚利这样的剧作家 It's reminiscent of playwrights like John Patrick Shanley.
甚至将之与貌似为著名剧作家的作品 And even compared it to the work of who I assumed
相提并论 were famous playwrights.
很显然 我不能忽视那天晚上的情况 It was clear something happened that night that I couldn't ignore.
因此第二天 我回到1881俱乐部 So the next day, I returned to the 1881 Club
看看Ellen是否有兴趣调整我们的计划 to see if Ellen was interested in adjusting our approach.
我不清楚原因 I don't know what it was,
但是人们对这部剧很有共鸣 but people really responded to this thing.
我没怎么注意 I didn't get to pay much attention.
那时正在忙 I was busy.
我的意思是 人们在这抽烟 I mean, you can make good money
可以让你赚不少钱 having people smoke in here.
没错 Right.
而一部热门剧作则可以让你赚大钱 But you could make millions with a hit play.
确实有可能 嗯 That's possible, yeah.
虽然目前还很难确定 I mean, at this point, it's hard to know
这部戏是否真的会成功 if the play would actually be a success,
但我认为如果连试都不试一下 那就太蠢了 but I think we'd be idiots not to give it a shot.
没错 应该试试 Yeah, we should.
我很高兴Ellen能同意我的新计划 I was happy to have Ellen on board with my new plan,
然而当我第二天 but as I spent the next day
重温那晚的录像时 going over the footage from that night,
我还是没弄明白 I was no closer to figuring out
这部戏为什么如此有趣 what made this play so interesting.
直到我注意到了几个激动人心的瞬间 That was until I noticed a few exciting moments
可能吸引了观众的注意力 that may have gripped the audience.
一张桌子边的一对恋人亲了一下 At one table, there was a couple that shared a kiss,
于是我知道剧里有一条爱情故事线 so I knew there was a romantic story line.
还有一个瞬间 一个男人在炫耀他的滑板 There was also a moment where a man showed off his skateboard deck
与此同时 另外三个人在吧台自拍合照 while, at the same time, a three-person selfie was happening at the bar,
真是一幕完美的故事高潮 the perfect climactic action scene.
我之前没发现 I didn't see it before,
但那天晚上聚集了热门戏剧的所有元素 but this night had all the ingredients of a hit play.
我认为保证成功最可靠的方法就是 So I figured the surest way to guarantee success would be
分毫不差地重现当晚的每一个时刻 to re-create every moment exactly as it happened.
于是我花了一个下午 So I spent the afternoon
整合那天晚上所有的音频和视频片段 compiling all the audio and video footage we had from that night
然后雇佣了专业的抄录团队 and then hired a team of professional transcribers
写下说过的每一个词 to write down every word that was spoken.
这个过程比较漫长 耗时多日 It was a lengthy, multi-day process,
所以我试着保证 so I tried to make sure
让他们的工作环境尽可能舒适 their working environment was as comfortable as possible.
要点儿苹果汁吗 Want some apple juice?
不用 No.
你想要点儿苹果汁吗 Do you want some apple juice?
- 不需要 谢谢 - 好吧 - I'm fine, thank you. - Okay, sure.
等到抄写终于完成之后 When the transcription was finally done,
我让人整合了对话并改编成剧本 I had the dialogue compiled and converted into a script
然后将拍摄到的人像放大 and then blew up images from our footage,
这样我就能找专业演员来演每个角色 so I could cast professional actors to play each role.
但是由于我们需要演员 But since it was crucial that they were able to
展现出原本角色的精髓 embody the exact essence of the original person,
于是我让选好的演员那周晚些时候来参加试镜 I set up auditions with my top picks for later that week.
必须能够接受烟味。低报酬，但是精神回报较高。
不过至于Ellen的角色 But for Ellen's role,
我觉得如果她本人能参演就最方便不过了 I thought it would be simplest if she could just play herself,
于是我去拜访了她 看她是否适合这个角色 so I paid her a visit to see if she was right for the part.
你现在读的是一个酒吧女老板的角色 So you're reading for the role of female bar owner.
- 好吧 - 好 - Okay. - All right.
你要先说一下你的名字吗 Do you want to just slate with your name first?
我的名字叫Ellen My name's Ellen.
好的 你准备好了随时开始 Okay, whenever you're ready.
我刚刚没听错吧 You did not just say that.
没听错 Yes, he did.
好吧 拿好了 All right, here you go.
谢谢 Thank you.
不好意思 亲爱的 Excuse me, sweetheart.
好了 很棒 那我们保持联系 All right, great. Well, we'll be in touch.
- 好 没问题 - 好的 - Okay, great. - Okay.
- 谢谢 - 谢谢 - Thank you. - Thanks.
我觉得Ellen做得很棒 I thought Ellen did a pretty good job,
但我需要推迟我的决定 but it was only fair to hold off on my decision
先看完我安排的其他试镜 这样才公平 until the rest of the auditions I had scheduled were done.
你现在读的是酒吧第六号顾客的部分 So you're reading for the part of bar patron number six.
嗯哼 Mm-hmm.
好 你准备好了随时可以开始 All right, so whenever you're ready.
百威清啤 Bud Light, please.
- 好嘞 - 好 - All right. - Cool.
很精彩 这个角色是你的了 That's great. You got the part.
太好了 Awesome.
随着越来越多的演员加入 As more and more actors came in,
角色都找到了很好的人选 the roles were filling up nicely,
尤其是扮演Ellen的演员 and I was especially blown away
我完全被她的演技征服了 by an actress who nailed the part of Ellen.
我刚刚没听错吧 You did not just say that.
没听错 Yes, he did.
好吧 拿好了 All right, here you go.
谢谢 Thank you.
不好意思 亲爱的 Excuse me, sweetheart.
哇哦 那段简直太棒了 Wow, that was really good.
现在每个角色都选定了 With every role now cast,
我给所有演员一周时间 I gave all my actors a week
来熟悉他们的剧本 to familiarize themselves with the script
然后把他们带到我租用的教堂 and then brought them to a church I rented
在假期周末进行为期三天的高强度团队排练 for three days of intense group rehearsal over a holiday weekend.
准备 开拍 So ready and action.
看起来大多数演员 It seemed like most of my actors
都很好地掌握了他们的台词 had a pretty good handle on their lines,
再稍加练习 and with a little bit of practice,
他们就快要能够完美重现 they were getting closer to nailing the blocking
那天晚上发生的那段关键情节了 of key action sequences that happened on the original night.
但随着排练的展开 But as the rehearsal went on,
我开始担心爱情线主演的表现 I became concerned about the performances of my romantic leads.
他们之间的情愫是这部戏剧的粘合剂 Their chemistry was the glue holding this play together,
但目前为止 我还感受不到 but so far, I wasn't buying it.
于是 那天其他人离开后 So after the rest of the group left that day,
我把那一对留下来单独培训 I kept the pair behind to work with them one on one.
我想要给你女儿生一个妹妹 I'd wanna, like, personally give your daughter a sibling.
我知道她会这样叫你 "爸爸" Now, I know she'd be like, "Dad."
我愿意为她这样做 I would love to do that for her.
我爱你 I love you.
我也爱你 I love you too.
好了 停 All right, stop.
我很希望这能像一段真实的关系 I really want this to feel like a real connection,
一个你俩之间真实的爱情故事 a real love story between you guys,
但我目前没感觉到 but I'm not getting that sense right now.
要不我们练习一下 好吗 How about we try an exercise, okay?
好的 Okay.
- 可以吗 - 没问题 - Is that okay? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
那么 Gabriel 你站在这里 So, Gabriel, you stand up here.
我们来试试这样 So let's try this.
看着我的眼睛说 "我爱你" Look into my eyes and say, "I love you."
行 Okay.
我爱你 I love you.
好吧 你现在还没有让我相信 Okay, now I'm not believing that at this point,
- 再说一遍 - 好吧 - So say it again. - Okay.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
- 再来 - 我爱你 - Again. - I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
我爱你 I love you.
再来 Again.
你的眼里有泪 所以 You have tears in your eyes, so...
噢真的吗 Oh, really?
是的 Yeah.
噢天啊 对不起 Oh, my God. Sorry.
呃 好吧 Um, okay.
看 这感觉就是真实的 See, that-- that felt real to me.
那就好 Good.
你和我对戏的时候 Did it feel more real when you did it with me
感觉比和他更真实吗 than when you did it with him?
呃 我和你对戏次数更多 Um, well, I did it more times with you.
是 但会更真实吗 Right, but it did?
呃 是的吧 是的 Well, so yes, yes.
好 那就是比和他更真实 Okay, so it did, more than with him.
好吧 那 Okay, so...
你懂了吗 You understand?
嗯 Yeah.
你看完刚才那段学到了什么 And what did you learn by watching that?
她爱你 That she loves you.
呃 她 她在表演 Well, I mean, she's-- she's acting.
是的 Yeah.
- 所以挺好的 - 是的 - So that's good. - Yeah.
我们希望这个场景能体现这点 So that's what we want from the scene.
- 我们想要那种联系 - 好的 - We want that type of connection. - Okay.
- 你听得懂吗 - 懂 - I mean, does that make sense? - Yeah.
太好了 那我们来试试 Great. So let's, uh, let's try that.
在我专业的指导和几个小时的排练后 With my expert guidance and a few more hours of rehearsal,
他们之间的化学反应现在非常真实了 the chemistry between them was now all too real.
我爱你 I love you.
我也爱你 I love you too.
既然演员们状态不错 With the actors in good shape,
我和团队回到1881俱乐部 my crew and I returned to the 1881 Club
为大型首映做准备 to prepare for the big premiere.
除了把观众席扩大到7个座位 Along with expanding the audience section to seven seats,
我还放了很多品牌周边来增加收入 I added a selection of branded merchandise to maximize our revenue
同时将饮品价格提升至剧院价 and increased the cost of drinks to reflect theater prices.
再稍加推广宣传后 And after a bit of promotion...
这是一部新剧 <允许吸烟> It's a new play called "Smokers Allowed".
算是生活片段类型剧 It's kind of a slice of life.
好的 Okay.
好 希望你能来 Okay, hope to see you there.
- 也许吧 我也不确定 - 好呐 - Maybe, I don't know. - Okay.
终于到了开幕夜 It was finally time for opening night.
我不确定是否会有观众到场 I had no idea if we'd get an audience,
不过随着时间的逼近 but as show time neared,
我发现我们可能会座无虚席 it looked like we might have a sellout on our hands,
排队购票的队伍里 as a line comprised
大都是演员的亲戚朋友们 mostly of family and friends of the actors
他们开始落座了 began filling up the seats.
与此同时 Meanwhile
演员们在后台忙着对台词 backstage was abuzz with my cast running lines
为表演做最后的润色 and getting some final touch-ups.
但在一切开始之前 But before we could begin,
我还有个棘手问题悬而未决 I still had the tough task that I'd been putting off
即告诉Ellen她不能参演的消息 of breaking the news to Ellen that she didn't get the part.
终于到今天了 So opening night.
是啊 Yeah.
你激动不 Are you excited?
嗯嗯 Yeah, I am.
我很期待 I'm looking forward to it.
在开始之前 我只想说 Before we begin, I just want to say
你的试镜很棒 your audition was great.
谢谢 Thank you.
但很不幸 你的表演不是很合适 Unfortunately, it wasn't quite what I was looking for,
这个酒吧女店主的角色 for the role of female bar owner.
好吧 没事 我能理解 Right, no problem. I understand.
好 尽管如此 Okay, so that being said,
还是容我向你介绍一下Amy I'd like to introduce you to Amy.
她将扮演你的角色 She's the actress that will be playing you.
好 All right.
我相信你能看出她很符合这个角色 And I think you'll find she really honors the character.
Amy 你想来展示一段你的Ellen吗 Amy, do you want to show her a bit of your Ellen?
很高兴见到你 来一杯吗 Nice to see you. Can I get you a drink?
嗯 听起来不错 Yeah, that sounds good.
好的 那你们换下位置吧 All right, so you guys want to switch out?
行 Okay.
尽管Ellen不能参演 Even though Ellen wouldn't be in the play,
我仍希望她能好好享受这场表演 I still wanted her to enjoy the show,
所以我在前排观众席上 which is why I had a front-row seat
为她特别预留了位置 in the audience reserved especially for her.
在表演开始前几分钟 With just a few minutes until show time,
我又最后检查了一遍 I had a final look-over
确保所有道具和演员 to ensure that every prop and every actor
都已经精准就位 was in the exact right position
等场景布置好之后 and once the scene was set,
我们就准备开始了 we were ready to begin.
大家好 Hello, everyone.
你好 Hello.
谢谢 非常感谢你们的出席 Thank you, thank you so much for coming.
我们都很兴奋 We're very excited.
我经常犹豫要不要多说几句 I'm always hesitant to say too much
因为我不想剧透任何情节 'cause I don't want to spoil anything,
我希望你们能尽情享受这部剧 but I'll just say I hope you enjoy this play
如同我们享受整个制作过程一样 as much as we enjoyed making it.
那么 闲话不说 So, without further ado,
请欣赏<允许吸烟> "Smokers Allowed"
我感觉棒极了 It was such an amazing feeling
看到表演终于能顺利进行 to see my play finally launch,
20分钟后 and 20 minutes in,
我们排练的付出有了回报 it was clear our rehearsals had paid off,
最初那晚
演员们都忠于那天晚上原本的情形 as my actors were able to stay faithful to the original night,
尽可能地贴近当时的对话和动作 matching the dialogue and actions as closely as possible.
但我却呆在家里 But instead I stay at home,
收看<纽约娇妻> and I watch "The Real Housewives of New York City".
你看过没 Have you ever seen that?
我能感觉到 And I could sense that
观众在他们的表演中找到了共鸣 the audience was really connecting with their performance.
爱情线的两位演员之间终于有感觉了 My romantic leads had finally found a chemistry
让人觉得他俩的关系 that felt as genuine as the love
最初那晚
如同那对真实情侣的爱情一样真实 that real-life couple they were playing shared.
但是如果故事的高潮出了差错 But all this would mean nothing
那么这一切都会没有意义 if the play's climax didn't land,
而高潮就是在小伙炫耀滑板的同时 the guy showing off his skateboard deck
另外还有三个人还在自拍合照 while a three-person selfie happened at the same time.
观众们紧扣心弦 The audience was on the edge of their seats,
期待着更激动人心的发展 craving something to put this over the top,
我终于能高兴地承认 and I'm happy to say
我们成功了 we delivered.
这场首演所有演员都很成功 It was a strong first showing for the entire cast,
而我也有信心 and I was hopeful
这将成为1881俱乐部的一大盈利手段 this would be a real money-maker for the 1881 Club.
所以在演出结束 演员谢幕后 So once the play was done and the cast took their bows,
我觉得有必要感谢所有人的支持 I felt compelled to express my gratitude for everyone's support.
嘿 Ah.
我谨代表全体演员 Thank you so much for coming out
谢谢你们的支持 on behalf of the cast and myself.
这次表演上座率令人吃惊 We're so amazed at this turnout.
尽管在今夜的表演中 Now even though a lot of the characters
有很多的演员都在吸烟 you saw in the play tonight were smoking,
我们都应该明白 it's important to remember
每年都有四十多万美国人吸烟致死 that smoking does kill over 400,000 Americans per year.
另有八百六十万人因抽烟或闻二手烟 Another 8.6 million live with a serious illness
而患上了严重疾病 that was caused by smoking or secondhand smoke.
所以 抽烟前还请三思 So think before you light up.
谢谢你们的出席 晚安 Thank you so much for coming out, and good night.
这次表演不折不扣非常成功 My play was a bona fide success,
我为我的演员们感到骄傲 and I was so proud of my cast
他们为观众献上了一场 for giving such a memorable performance
终生难忘的表演 the audience would never forget.
我可能不会给别人推荐这部剧 I would probably not recommend it to anybody
不会说这部剧真的很棒 as far as saying it's a really good show.
我没看懂这部戏…
…简直
观众的反响很强烈 The response was overwhelming,
但Ellen的看法才是最关键的 but the only opinion that really mattered was Ellen's.
所以酒吧清场后 So once the bar cleared out,
我提心吊胆地征询了她的意见 I nervously checked in with her to get her thoughts.
所以 So, um...
你觉得怎么样 what did you think of the play?
还好啦 It was okay.
我个人觉得有点无聊 不过嘛 It was a little boring as far as I was concerned, but...
那就是不喜欢咯 So you didn't like it?
并不太喜欢 Not particularly.
好像 好像少了点什么 It wasn't--it just wasn't--
他们只是坐着而已 they were just sitting there.
大家也没做什么正事儿 Nobody was really doing anything.
那你是不打算在酒吧继续演这部剧咯 So does that mean you're not going to keep doing it here?
我想是吧 I doubt it.
确实不太可能 Seriously doubt it.
我们的顾客是来看体育赛事 Our customers come in here to watch sports,
看电视的 watch TV,
而不是干坐着看别人抽烟 not just to sit and watch somebody sit there smoking.
那好吧 All right, well...
感谢你的坦诚 I appreciate your honesty.
感谢你的尝试 I appreciate you trying.
Ellen说她不会保留这部戏剧 Ellen saying she didn't want to do my play anymore
给了我最终一击 was the ultimate blow.
所有努力付诸东流 After all my hard work,
我感到难过而沮丧 I felt sad and rejected.
但我知道也许还有其他方式 But I realized that maybe there was still a way
来得到我所期待的认可 to get the feeling I was hoping for.
那么 你觉得这部剧如何 So...what'd you think of the play?
简直棒极了 I thought it was brilliant.
真的吗 Really?
真的 我真这么觉得 Yeah, I really did.
那你会继续在这儿表演吗 And you're gonna keep doing it here?
毫无疑问会 Without a doubt.
所以你真的喜欢这部剧咯 So you really liked it?
我超爱的 I loved it.
再说一遍 Say that again.
我超爱的 I loved it.
再来 Again.
我超爱的 I loved it.
再来 Say it again.
我知道这不是真的 I knew this wasn't real,
- 但她看我的眼神 - 我超爱的 - but her looking at me in the eyes... - I loved it.
以及所说的话让我莫名满足 and saying these words was strangely satisfying.
我知道这是客套话 Like, I know it's fake,
但是单单听到就挺开心的 but it feels really good to--to hear.
这不是客套话 It's not fake.
我真的爱它 I loved it.
都说心态决定现实 They say reality is what you make of it,
在这个残酷冷漠的世界 so in a world that's cruel and hurtful,
谁能决定我的世界不美好呢 who's to say mine can't be nice?
嗯 谢谢 Okay,Thanks.
