-肯定是她来了 -确实 - Oh, that's her now. - It is.
走吧 约翰 精神点 Come on, John. Look lively.
真好奇她是什么样的人 I wonder what she'll be like.
我们很快就会知道了 Well, we'll know soon enough.
欢迎来到东61街 玛丽安小姐 Welcome to East 61st Street, Miss Marian.
我是班尼斯特 范莱茵夫人的管家 My name is Bannister, Mrs. Van Rhijn's butler.
这位是 And this is?
我是斯科特 佩姬·斯科特 Miss Scott. Miss Peggy Scott.
斯科特小姐和我一路同来 Miss Scott traveled with me,
但他们取消了去布鲁克林的渡船 but they've canceled the ferries to Brooklyn.
我希望范莱茵夫人 I'm rather hoping Mrs. Van Rhijn
能允许她在风暴过去前在此留宿 will allow her to rest here until the storm has passed.
我明白了 I see.
范莱茵夫人与艾达小姐在休息室聊天 Mrs. Van Rhijn's in the drawing room with Miss Ada.
那我去问问她们 Then I'll ask them.
斯科特小姐能在楼下等吗 If Miss Scott could wait downstairs?
当然可以 Of course.
一个陌生的有色人种女人借你钱 An unknown colored woman lent you money
让你能来纽约 to travel to New York?
这听着很不可信 That seems very unlikely.
可信与否 这是真的 Unlikely or not, it's true.
而她现在也在这里吗 And she's here, now?
她的父母都住在布鲁克林 Well, her parents live in Brooklyn,
但马车司机说渡船已经停运了 but the cab driver said the ferries aren't running.
那她必须得留宿了 Well, then of course she must stay.
不是吗 艾格妮丝 Mustn't she, Agnes?
先带她进来 Bring her in first.
要进我家前我必须得见见她 I have to meet anyone who's going to be in my house.
好的 夫人 Of course, ma'am.
-玛丽安 你一定饿了 -其实并没有 - Marian, you must be hungry. - Not really.
稍后让鲍尔太太给她送点食物到房间去 We'll have Mrs. Bauer send something up to her room.
看来我们欠了你好一笔债 It seems we owe you a considerable debt,
斯科特小姐 Miss Scott.
我听说你希望在这里留宿 I gather you would like to stay here?
我不想叨扰各位 I don't want to be a nuisance.
是我硬拉这斯科特小姐上了马车 I forced Miss Scott into the cab
好让她别在暴风雨中待着 to get her out of the storm.
一阵风就能把你从这 The wind gusts alone could blow you
吹到第五大道去 all the way to Fifth Avenue.
那她可以留下吗 艾格妮丝姑姑 So she can stay, Aunt Agnes?
我们可不能让斯科特小姐被吹迷糊 We can't have Miss Scott blown into oblivion.
好的 你可以在这留宿 明天一早 Yes, you may stay, and in the morning,
班尼斯特会去银行取钱来还给你 Bannister can fetch the money from the bank to repay you.
谢谢 Thank you.
我从来没有那么狼狈过 I have never found myself in such an odd predicament.
十分感谢你的慷慨 I appreciate your kindness.
你可以留下 但有个条件 You may stay on one condition:
你得把你父母的地址告诉我 that you give me your parents' address
以防万一 in case anything happens.
我不会出什么事的 Nothing will happen to me.
万一你出事了 I won't be in a position
我不能联系不上人 of having no one to contact if it does.
那好吧 Very well.
你坐渡船一路上没有太颠簸吧 亲爱的 I hope the ferry crossing wasn't too rough, dear.
没有 完全没事 No, not at all.
是谁教会你这样写字的 Who taught you to write like this?
有色青年学校 The Institute for Colored Youth
在费城 in Philadelphia.
我很熟悉那里 But I know it well.
我父亲在它于30年代开办时 My father was a patron
曾是股东之一 when it first opened in the '30s.
我在宾夕法尼亚州长大 就在多伊尔斯敦外 I grew up in Pennsylvania, outside Doylestown.
我们以前会去参加 We used to attend
学校里精彩的圣诞汇演 the wonderful Christmas pageants at the school.
-你也参加过吗 -我每年都参加 - Were you a part of that? - Every year.
我们先领你去住下吧 斯科特小姐 Let's get you settled, Miss Scott,
不然我妹妹就要让你唱首颂歌了 before my sister begs you to sing a carol.
你下去厨房那 Go down to the kitchens
找鲍尔太太帮你找个房间 and ask Mrs. Bauer to find you a room.
谢谢 Thank you.
玛丽安 你有什么计划了吗 Now, Marian, have you made any plans yet?
她才刚来 艾格妮丝 She's only just arrived, Agnes.
我还没有定任何计划 I haven't made any plans, no.
我猜你最近才知道 I suppose you only recently learned
你父亲让你蒙羞了 that your father had let you down.
请别说我爸爸的坏话 Please don't speak ill of Daddy.
在我家里我爱怎么说就怎么说 I will say what I like in my own house.
对我不行 Not to me.
我想着去找个工作 I thought I might find a job.
这也没得商量吗 Would that be out of the question?
如果你想和我一起住的话 Only if you wish to live with me.
我不希望无所事事 Well, I don't want to be idle.
也许有慈善组织会雇佣我 Perhaps there's a charity that could use my services.
多善良啊 工作也很合适 How generous, and how suitable.
那得看她选哪个慈善组织了 That depends on the charity she chooses,
但首先给你做几身衣服 亲爱的 but first we must attend to your clothes, my dear.
明天和艾达去找我的裁缝 You will go tomorrow with Ada to my dressmaker,
而且不能选黑色 and no black.
但我还在服丧 But I'm in mourning.
这里的人不会知道亨利的具体死亡日期 People here won't know when Henry died.
你即将要在上流社会初次亮相 You're making your debut in society.
你年轻貌美 You are young and pretty
要充分展现自己的优势 and need to be shown to advantage.
我不希望你游离在社交的边缘 I don't want you hanging about on the edge of things
像只孤独的乌鸦一样 like a lonely crow.
艾达 记住 Ada, remember,
别管她的想法 选喜庆的颜色 I want cheerful colors, whatever she says.
-但... -我们一定要多多留意 - But-- - We must look out for some people
谁家有与你适龄的子女 with sons and daughters your age.
没错 我不认识任何人 That's true. I don't know anyone.
但你一定要注意我们家族 Now, you need to know we only receive
只与门第世家交往 the old people in this house,
而不是暴发新贵 not the new.
-绝不能是新贵 -有什么区别 - Never the new. - What's the difference?
在改革之前 社会由世家主宰 The old have been in charge since before the revolution.
他们公正地统治着 直到新贵入侵 They ruled justly until the new people invaded.
事情没有那么简单 It's not quite as simple as that.
-就是那么简单 -我就是新人 - Yes, it is. - Well, I'm new.
我才刚刚到来 I've only just arrived.
玛丽安 尽管布鲁克家族 Marian, never mind that the Brooks
在宾夕法尼亚州住了一个半世纪 have been in Pennsylvania for a century and a half.
我母亲 你的祖母 My mother, your grandmother,
可是利文斯顿庄园的正统成员 was a Livingston of Livingston Manor,
而利文斯顿早在1674年就来到这座城市 and they came to this city in 1674.
你属于纽约世家 亲爱的 You belong to old New York, my dear,
别让任何人动摇你的想法 and don't let anyone tell you different.
你是我的侄女 You are my niece,
因此你属于纽约世家 and you belong to old New York.
你能给斯科特小姐打份汤来吗 布丽姬特 Wil you fetch Miss Scott some supper, Bridget?
我不想麻烦你们 I don't want to be any trouble.
不麻烦 请坐 No, no, please, sit down.
我希望他们已经为你准备好房间了 I hope they've made a room ready for you.
我们准备了一间房 Oh, we had one prepared
是给玛丽安小姐的女佣准备的 in case Miss Marian brought a maid.
鲍尔太太住在顶楼 Mrs. Bauer is on the top floor
你和阿姆斯特朗小姐 布丽姬特也是 with you and Miss Armstrong and Bridget.
我和约翰住在下面 John and I sleep down here.
她和我们住同一层楼吗 She's on the same floor as us?
有什么问题吗 Is there some difficulty?
那就这么定了 Ah, there you are, then.
你喝咖啡吗 Do you drink coffee?
是的 我喝咖啡 Yes, I drink coffee.
谢谢 Thank you.
我只是想确认一下 I just wanted to be sure.
我们得用同一间盥洗室 But are we to share the same bathroom,
同一个便器吗 the same water closet?
总不好叫让她用楼梯底下的水桶 She can hardly use a bucket under the stairs.
这合适吗 班尼斯特先生 Is that right, Mr. Bannister?
轮不到我们提意见 It's not for us to have an opinion.
我不想这个家出现问题 I don't want trouble in the house,
尽管她可能不想引起麻烦 and while she may not want to cause it,
但她或许就是麻烦的源头 she may be the cause of it.
我重复一次 轮不到我们提意见 I repeat, it is not for us to have an opinion,
尤其是你刚说的那个 certainly not that one.
但她得在这留多久 还有她怎么会在这里 But how long is she here for, and why is she here at all?
因为她帮助了玛丽安小姐 Because she performed a great service for Miss Marian.
-我要睡觉了 -晚安 - I'm going to bed. - Good night.
我觉得斯科特小姐看起来人不错 I think that Miss Scott seems nice.
-你就知道这些 -没错 - Which is all you know. - Yes, it is.
我坚持这个看法 除非她行为不符 And I'm sticking to it until she proves me wrong.
你说得轻巧 That's all very well for you to say,
但黑人要北上抢我们的工作了 but they're coming up here now to take our jobs.
她不会抢任何人的工作 She's not taking anyone's job.
看到了吗 她会扰乱秩序 See? She'll disrupt things.
我跟鲍尔太太说过 但她不听 I told Mrs. Bauer, but she wouldn't listen.
也许我们需要一些混乱 Maybe we need a bit of disruption.
抱歉 Excuse me.
斯科特小姐 这是我们欠你的 Miss Scott, I think this is what we owe you.
谢谢 Thank you.
班尼斯特出去时看过了 While he was out, Bannister checked,
布鲁克林渡口还未恢复运营 and the Brooklyn ferry is still not running.
码头被暴风雨破坏了 The docks were damaged in the storm.
你可能得再待一晚 You may have to stay here another night.
你的家人会担心你吗 Will your family be concerned?
他们不知道我要来 所以不会 They weren't expecting me, so no.
是吗 Really?
谢谢 Oh, thank you.
太多信件要处理了 I'm overwhelmed with papers.
我从未积压过那么多信件 I've never been this behind on my correspondence.
范莱茵夫人 请告诉我 Mrs. Van Rhijn, please tell me
我有什么能效劳的吗 if there's anything I can do to help.
你的字迹确实秀丽 Well, you do have the penmanship for it.
我可以听您口述 我会皮特曼速记法 I can take dictation. I know Pitman shorthand.
这是我最起码能回报您的 It's the least I can do to repay you.
既然你坚持 我就口述一些信件吧 I will dictate some letters, if you insist,
但我恐怕这些内容会非常无趣 but they will only be very dull ones, I'm afraid.
格拉迪斯 坐那对你的眼睛不好 Gladys, that's bad for your eyes.
坐得离窗户近些 Sit nearer the window.
刚刚送到 夫人 Just delivered by hand, ma'am.
谢谢 丘奇 Thank you, Church.
莫里斯和费恩夫人 A Mrs. Morris and a Mrs. Fane

帕特里克·莫里斯和查尔斯·费恩的夫人吗 Is that Mrs. Patrick Morris and Mrs. Charles Fane?
是的 怎么了 Yes it is. Why?
她们的丈夫是市参议员 Their husbands are city aldermen.
我和他们有些生意往来 I may have some business with them.
这两位夫人想让你做什么 What do the wives want of you?
首先 她们要举办一场集会 Well, to start with, there's a meeting
在第五大道酒店举办 邀请事业伙伴参加 for friends of the cause to be held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
是吗 不在她们自己的房子举办吗 Really? Not in one of their own houses?
肯定是因为酒店更方便 I dare say a hotel was more convenient.
我听说第五大道在走下坡路 I hear the Fifth Avenue's slipping.
没有人再想去第23街了 No one wants to be down on 23rd Street anymore.
我不会让你扫我的兴 I won't let you spoil it for me.
我不想扫兴 I don't want to spoil it.
这是个开始 肯定是 It's beginning. I knew it would.
坚持是通往一切的关键 Persistence is the key to everything.
耐心和坚持 Patience and persistence.

走着瞧吧 He'll find out.
写得真好 斯科特小姐 谢谢 Nicely done, Miss Scott. Thank you.
过奖了 Not at all.
看看我在房间里找到了谁 Look who I found in my room.
你一定要把那个小畜生带进来吗 Must we have that horrid thing in here?
我觉得有必要 你觉得呢 艾达姑妈 I think we must. Don't you, Aunt Ada?
当然 Absolutely.
-你散步得还愉快吗 亲爱的 -是的 - Have you had a nice walk, dear? - I have.
您的行李箱修好了 我把它带回来了 Your suitcase is mended. I brought it back myself.
已经放到你的房间 I've put it in your room.
你居然带着一口箱子上街 You carried a suitcase through the streets?
我又犯什么错了吗 Have I broken another rule?
你本应该检查箱子是否修好 You were to check it was ready
然后让仆人去取回来 and then send the footman to collect it.
而且绝不能单独出门 And never go out unaccompanied.
以后别再这样了 Please don't do such a thing again.
你们先聊 I should leave you.
斯科特小姐 我考虑了一下 Miss Scott, I've just had another thought.
我现在正需要人帮我处理信件 Clearly, I'm in need of help with my correspondence.
我不知道你有什么计划 I don't know what your plans are,
但如果你感兴趣的话 but if you're interested,
我希望能聘请你当我的秘书 I would like to hire you as my secretary.
我当然感兴趣 That does interest me.
循例 我还需要一封推荐信 I would need a reference, of course.
我能让学院院长给您一封 I can get you one from the principal at the institute.
但在东61街工作 又住在布鲁克林 But working on 61st and staying in Brooklyn
即使之后渡船重新通航 presents a challenge,
也可能会有点麻烦 even once the ferries are running.
在我看来 斯科特小姐你好像 It seems to me, Miss Scott, that you are not eager
并不急着回家 to return home.
好吧 Very well.
你任职期间可以住在这里 You may stay here for the time being,
但你必须与你父母见面 but you must arrange to see your parents
并告诉他们你在哪 and tell them where you are.
您有他们的住址 You've got their address.
我不会让躲着父母的人 I will not have a fugitive in my house
住在我家里 hiding from her family.
好的 All right.
你会见他们的吧 You will make a plan to see them?
我会与我母亲见面 I'll arrange to meet my mother.
我以为你不想见他们 I thought you wanted to avoid them.
我是不想见他 I want to avoid him.
谢谢您 范莱茵夫人 Thank you, Mrs. Van Rhijn.

训练孤儿成为佣人 Training orphans to be servants?
让他们不必去干...一些更加不堪的事 To save them from...something worse.
不必细说 There's no need to go into that.
但这是写给您的 不是给我的 But it's addressed to you, not me.
他们希望获得捐赠 但如果我们给予人手帮助 They want a donation from us, but they'll be delighted
他们也定会欣喜不已 when we offer them a pair of willing hands.
那里还会有其他年轻姑娘 There'll be other young women there
-你的同龄人 -以及同样的出身 - your own age. - And background.
没问题 Very well.
你是在找夫人吗 Are you looking for your mistress?
没有 没什么事 老爷 No, no, not especially, sir.
我只是正准备上楼 I'm just on my way upstairs.
特纳小姐 作为朋友我要提醒你 小心行事 Tread carefully, Miss Turner. I speak as a friend.
那你未免也太小心了 You can tread too carefully.

也不会引起别人注意 without attracting attention.
你是怎么认识她的 How do you know her?
她侄子是我在哈佛的同学 Her nephew was at Harvard with me,

他爱你 He loves you,

我知道他自以为爱我 I know he feels what he thinks is love,
但我不认同他所说的爱 but I disagree with his definition.
可能他很严格 很苛刻 Maybe he can be hard and demanding,
但他只是想为你谋福利 but he was only thinking of your welfare.

桑达斯基有潜力成为重要的城市 now the railroad passes through,
而我想要它成为我的城市 and I want it to be my city.
那就把已有的线路买下来 Then buy the track that already exists
为你自己节省成千上万块钱吧 and save yourself thousands.
可你拒绝了我 两次 But you turned me down, twice.
我拒绝了你的出价 I turned down your offer
因为我以为你会再出更高的价格 because I thought you'd come back with more.
这叫作谈判 It's called negotiation.
我不这么做生意 索伯恩先生 Not in my book, Mr. Thorburn.
你拒绝了我的出价 You refused my bid,
现在我就要在你的线路旁修一条新铁路 and now I will build a new line alongside yours.
这会把我挤垮的 Which would wipe me out.
恐怕结果就是这样 没错 I'm afraid that'll be a consequence, yes,
但这并非我的原先目的 but it is not my principal intention.
不是吗 Oh, isn't it?
谢天谢地啊 Well, thank the Lord.
还有别的事吗 Is there anything else?
因为我还有其他会议 Because I have another appointment.
你的意思是 So what you are saying is,
你宁愿浪费一大笔钱 you would rather waste a fortune
也不愿意花实惠钱买一条已经在运营的线路 than pay an honest price for a line already operating?
但我不觉得这是浪费钱 But I do not see it as a waste.
一旦大家得知了我的第二次出价 Once people learn that my second offer
就是我的最后一次出价 is invariably my last,
他们就知道不应该再拒绝我 they won't, as a rule, refuse me.
经年累月之后 反而会帮我节约一大笔钱 Over the years, I expect to save a lot more money
比我现在花掉的还要多 than I am spending now.
你这个混蛋 You bastard.
我也许是个混蛋 索伯恩先生 I may be a bastard, Mr. Thorburn,
但你是个傻瓜 but you are a fool,
这两种人之中 我宁可是前者 and of the two, I think I know which I prefer.
祝你日安 先生 Now, good day to you, sir.
你经常来纽波特吗 阿斯特小姐 Do you often come to Newport, Miss Astor?
我今后会的 I will.
我父母去年在比奇伍德这里买了栋房子 My parents bought a house here last year, Beechwood.
最近刚刚完成翻新 They've nearly finished the renovations,
所以我今后会经常来这里 so I suppose I'll be here a lot.
这里有什么消遣活动吗 Oh, was there much to do to the place?
很显然 我母亲是没法住在 Well, obviously, my mother couldn't live in a house
不带舞厅的房子里 without a ballroom.
你可以笑我 You may laugh,
但是正如我母亲不厌其烦地指出 but as my mother never tires of pointing out,
我们将来能否在纽约成功 our future success in New York
完全取决于阿斯特夫人的支持以及认可 depends entirely on the support and approval of Mrs. Astor.
这话恐怕不假 I'm afraid it's true.
她是股不容小觑的力量 She is quite a force.
我只希望这力量是好的 A force for good, I hope.
是难以忽视的力量 Well, a force to be reckoned with.
管家正在找你 The butler was looking for you.
他找到我了 给了我一封来自母亲的信 Ah, he found me. He had a letter from my mother.
她信上说在我不在家的这段时间 She wrote that a cousin has come to live with them
一位表亲住进了我家 玛丽安·布鲁克小姐 while I've been away, Miss Marian Brook.
所以这就是我回家之后会见到的 So that is something to look forward to.
长着卷心菜脸的矮胖老处女 A dumpy spinster with a face like a cabbage
而且身材也又矮又胖 and a figure to match.
我们马上要开始晚餐了 但在这之前 We're going into dinner, but before we do,
我想要提醒大家晚餐之后 I want to warn you that when you return,
你们会发现玩束带卡牌游戏的 you will find tables have been set up
游戏桌已经布置好了 大家都得参加 for the game of Cinch, and you are all playing.
但如果我们不知道怎么玩呢 But suppose we don't know how.
那你可以趁晚餐的时候学 Then you will learn during dinner.
束带 非得玩吗 Cinch? Do we really have to?
我觉得逃不掉了 I'd say there's no escape.
-真抱歉裙子被我扯破了 -不能怪你 - I'm so sorry that got torn. - It wasn't your fault.
-你今天的会面怎么样 -一般吧 - How was your excursion? - So-so.
起码她给我带了一些衣服 At least she brought me some of my clothes.
这里的仆人怎么样 What are the staff here like?
整体来说很好 只有一两个人例外 Nice on the whole, with one or two exceptions.
我应该下来跟他们打个招呼 I ought to go down and say hello.
玛丽安 Marian?
玛丽安 Marian.
我决定要办一次待客宴会 I've decided to give an at home.
-那是什么意思 -你知道我什么意思 - And what does that mean? - You know perfectly well.
我会寄出卡片写明我们在某天的晚上 I'll send cards saying we'll receive after dinner
晚餐后接待宾客 欢迎他们来参观 on such and such an evening, and they're welcome to look in.
他们是谁 Who are they?
费恩夫人跟我说 Mrs. Fane was telling me
人们对这栋房子很好奇 how curious people are about the house.
他们想要我们的钱 贝莎 They want our money, Bertha.
-这是在做善事 -那是当然 - It's a good cause. - I'm sure.
我很高兴你想要做慈善 And I'm glad if you'd like to donate,
但是请不要自欺欺人 but please don't deceive yourself
觉得他们会对除了钱以外的事情感兴趣 that their interest in us is something more.
乔治 这事总得有个开始 George, we have to start somewhere.
范德比尔特家族是原本生活在荷兰 兴起于镀金时代的美国家族 最早通过航运和铁路运输发家
如今大家都去拜访范德比尔特夫人 Everyone calls on Mrs. Vanderbilt now.
如今他们已被所有人接受 They're seen everywhere.
这跟我们有什么关系 What's that got to do with it?
当年他的祖父刚到纽约那阵 When his grandfather arrived in New York,
没人愿意搭理他们 no one would go near him.
那都是五十年前的事了 你什么意思 That was half a century ago. What are you saying?
我们得一直这样五十年 We have to keep this up for 50 years,
然后可能有人愿意来拜访吗 and then someone may drop by?
-现在事情发展得更快了 -真是松了一口气 - Things move faster nowadays. -That's a relief.
我觉得父亲想说的是我们... I think what father means is that we--
他们想看看房子 They want to see this house.
他们眼看着房子一点点盖起来 They've watched it going up,
现在他们想看看里面的样子 and now they'd like to see inside.
这也不意味他们想和你交朋友 It doesn't make them your friends.
我没邀请他们来就餐或者跳舞 I'm not asking them to dine or dance.
我不会用舞厅 I won't use the ballroom.
那得要留着以后用 I'll save that for another time.
我只想让他们进来看看 I just want them to look in,
而且我觉得他们无法拒绝这个邀请 and I don't think they'll be able to resist.
丘奇 请通知布鲁斯太太 Church, please tell Mrs. Bruce.
好的 夫人 Yes, ma'am.
听说艾达小姐和玛丽安小姐 Is it true Miss Ada and Miss Marian
在教堂慈善活动时遇见了 met Mrs. Russell from across the road
马路对面的罗素夫人 at that charity event?
你怎么知道的 How do you know that?
我在街上看见了对面那家的男仆 I saw one of their footmen in the street,
他在说这件事 and he was talking about it.
阿姆斯特朗小姐 Miss Armstrong?
我不应该多嘴 I don't think I should say.
别说你这会又突然谨慎起来了 Don't tell me you're having a fit of discretion,
阿姆斯特朗小姐 Miss Armstrong.
我不明白 这有什么大不了的 I don't understand. Why does it matter?
等到范莱茵夫人听说后就有的可看了 It'll matter when Mrs. Van Rhijn hears about it.
她早晚得屈服 Oh, she'll have to give in one day.
为什么 Why?
因为像罗素先生这种人 Well, because they own the future,
他们掌握着未来 men like Mr. Russell,
范莱茵夫人迟早得接受这一点 and Mrs. Van Rhijn will have to come to terms with it sooner or later,
看清现实 stands to reason.
如果她不接受你打算怎么办 What will you do if she doesn't?
我 不怎么办吧 Me? Nothing, I guess.
这样 Oh, I see.
你说得那么斩钉截铁 我还以为 You spoke so definitely, I thought you had
你已经制订好了抗议计划呢 some course of action planned in protest.
-没有 班尼斯特先生 -嗯 你最好记住了 - No, Mr. Bannister. - No, and don't you forget it.
这次待客宴会有多大规模 But what is the scale of this at home to be?
你可以明天去向夫人问个明白 You can talk it through with the mistress tomorrow.
如果有人来 也仅仅是因为 If they come, it will only be out of curiosity
对房子好奇 to see the house.
你为什么会这么说 What makes you say that?
老爷事业有成 对吧 The master is successful, isn't he?
人成功的时候 大家都想结交 People want to know you when you're a success.
只有当失败时 大家才会远离 It's when you fail they turn their backs.
这听起来酸溜溜的 沃森先生 You sound rather bitter, Mr. Watson.
只是陈述事实而已 Oh, just stating the fact.
你有什么事瞒着我们吗 Are you keeping something from us?
-没有 -行了 特纳小姐 - No. - Come, Miss Turner.
没必要打破砂锅问到底 There is no need to put him on the spot.
我不需要保护 布鲁斯太太 谢谢 I don't need protection, Mrs. Bruce, thank you.
我没什么可隐瞒的 I've nothing to hide.
如果你说得是真的 Well, if that is true,
你肯定不是个一般人 you must be a very unusual person.
欢迎回家 拉里先生 Welcome home, Mr. Larry.
希望您的旅行愉快 I hope you had a pleasant journey.
是的 谢谢 非常好 Yes, thank you. It was very nice.
小南瓜 回来 Pumpkin! Come back here!
小南瓜 Pumpkin!
让开 Get out of the way!
天啊 你太勇敢了 Good heavens, that was brave.
换谁都会这么做 Anyone would have done the same.
我不信 I doubt it,
不然第五大道早就堆满尸体了 or there'd be bodies up and down Fifth Avenue.
-你是范莱茵家的吗 -算是吧 - Are you a Van Rhijn? - Almost.
范莱茵夫人是我姑妈 我叫玛丽安·布鲁克 Mrs. Van Rhijn is my aunt. I'm Marian Brook.
-奥斯卡·范莱茵的表妹吗 -对 - Oscar van Rhijn's cousin? - Yes.
你跟他说的完全不同 Oh, you're not as he described you.
我是拉里·罗素 I'm Larry Russell.
你最好今后让人 Well, you'd better tell them
好好管教小南瓜 to keep him under control in future.
没人管得住小南瓜 Nobody can keep Pumpkin under control,
至少管不了太久 not for very long anyway.
-布鲁克小姐再见 -罗素先生再见 - Miss Brook. - Mr. Russell.
谢谢 丘奇 有你在真好 Thank you, Church. There's a good man.
我的行李从学校运到了吗 Has my trunk arrived from college?
拉里先生 运到了 也整理好了 It has, and it's been unpacked, Mr. Larry.
妹妹 一切都还顺利吗 Hello, there. How is everything?
老样子 Much as usual,
除了母亲决定要办她的第一场晚会 except that Mother has decided to give her first soirée.
你回来了 亲爱的 There you are, dear.
-你玩得开心吗 -挺不错 - Have you had a lovely time? - Lovely enough.
既然你都哈佛毕业了 You should have your own valet
你该找个贴身男仆了 now you're down from Harvard.
老是麻烦丘奇多不好 It's not fair to burden Church.
我听说我们要庆祝新迁 I gather we are going to christen the new house.
只是找些人来参观 也是时候了 Just a few people calling in, but I think it's time.
多少人要来 How many are coming?
如果他们可能不回复 很难确定 It's hard to say if they don't accept in a formal way,
但我想准备两百份餐应该够了 but I think if we cater for 200, it's probably safe.
不如也叫些你的朋友来吧 I thought you'd like to ask some friends of yours.
比如说 Such as?
格莱特家族起源于法国 纽约地产世家
像菲什夫人或戈莱特一家 Such as Mrs. Fish or the Goelets
或者漂亮的阿斯特小姐 or that nice Miss Astor.
我跟他们不熟 I hardly know them.
我只是个凑数的 I was only there to make up numbers.
你要邀请范莱茵夫人吗 Are you inviting Mrs. Van Rhijn?
或许吧 去梳洗吧 Maybe. Now go and wash.
一会要吃午餐了 We'll have luncheon in a minute.
你怎么把那臭狗带上车了 Why do you bring that beastly dog?
狗应当在车旁跑 Dogs are supposed to run alongside carriages,
而不是带在车上 not travel in them.
我们得给小南瓜开个先例 Oh, I think we must make an exception for Pumpkin.
我跟奥斯卡约了喝茶 他该见见你了 I've asked Oscar for tea. It's time he met you.
他会带个朋友来 叫约翰·亚当斯 He'll have a friend with him, John Adams.
很好 That's nice.
他是奎西·亚当斯的曾孙 This John is Quincy Adams' great-grandson.
请称他亚当斯先生 You will call him Mr. Adams,
然后穿新衣服来 and wear one of your new dresses.
我差点忘了 I almost forgot.
班尼斯特在我离开前给我的 Bannister gave me this as I was leaving.
我们下楼前男仆递过来的 A footman left it just before we came down.
罗素夫人送来的 It's from Mrs. Russell.
收件人也有你 玛丽安 It's addressed to you, as well, Marian.
范莱茵夫人 布鲁克小姐和玛丽安·布鲁克小姐 Mrs. Van Rhijn, Miss Brook, Miss Marian Brook.
看来她上过礼仪课 She's clearly had lessons in etiquette.
她是想邻里和睦 She's trying to be neighborly.
-是封邀请信 -邀请我们吗 - It's an invitation. - Addressed to us?
他们肯定要招待一番 They were bound to entertain soon.
他们建造这么奢华的房子绝不是为了 They can't have built that great house
围坐在火炉边看书 to sit by the fire and read.
让他们宴请他们那种人去吧 Well, let them entertain their own sort.
反正这种人多得是 Heaven knows there are plenty to choose from.
艾格妮丝姑姑 我有个问题 Aunt Agnes, I have a question.
奥古斯都·张伯伦的夫人是谁 Who is Mrs. Augustus Chamberlain?
你怎么听说她的 Where have you heard that name?
张伯伦夫人在费恩夫人的慈善宴会上 Mrs. Chamberlain was at Mrs. Fane's charity gathering.
是吗 天哪 艾达 还有谁在场 Was she, by heavens? Ada, who else was there?
扒手还是刚释放的罪犯 Pickpockets? Newly released criminals?
奥萝拉在想什么 What was Aurora thinking?
别忘了集会的目的 One must remember that the point of the exercise
是筹集资金 is to raise money.
那也不能冒险损伤在场 That is no excuse for risking the reputation
所有女士的声誉 of every lady in the room.
玛丽安 如果你再看到张伯伦夫人 Marian, when and if you see Mrs. Chamberlain again,
千万别搭理她 you are to turn your face away.
-明白吗 -明白 - Is that clear? - Very.
那罗素夫人的宴会呢 So what about Mrs. Russell's party?
-我猜我们不会去 对吧 -你疯了吗 - I presume we're not going. - Are you mad?
请交给莫里斯夫人 Would you please see that Mrs. Morris...
费恩夫人... That Mrs. Fane...
请交给阿斯特夫人 That Mrs. Astor gets this?
菲什夫人不在家 夫人 I'm afraid Mrs. Fish is not at home, madam.
是吗 Really?
她认识我儿子拉里·罗素 Only she knows my son, Larry Russell.
他之前还跟她去了纽波特 He was just staying with her in Newport.
夫人 她不在家 She's not at home, madam.
你会转交我的名片和这封信吧 But you'll give her my card and this envelope?
-并转告我来过吗 -当然 夫人 - You'll say I called? - Of course, madam.
罗素联合信托
谢谢各位先生 散会 Thank you, gentlemen. That's all.
跟阿特金斯说不行 Tell Atkins no.
跟舒茨说我感兴趣 但还未下决心 Warn Schultz I'm interested, but not yet convinced.
跟布伦南说我等到明早十点 Give Brennan till 10:00 tomorrow morning,
-不然条件作废 -好 - or the deal's off. - Very good.
斯坦福·怀特先生来了 Mr. Stanford White is outside.
快请进 Oh, bring him in. Bring him in.
谢谢 克雷 Thank you, Clay.
怀特先生 抱歉让你跑一趟 Mr. White, sorry to drag you here
我想你一定很繁忙 when no doubt you've had a busy day.
我希望不是新房子有问题 I hope nothing's wrong with the house.
正好相反 房子好得很 Oh, quite the contrary. It's working splendidly.
因此罗素夫人决定 So splendidly, in fact, that Mrs. Russell has decided
是时候宴请宾客了 it is time we began to entertain.
这正是房子的用途 That's what it was built for.
你会收到她的邀请函 You will receive a card from her.
她觉得客人们会对房子很感兴趣 She feels our guests will be interested in the place.
她希望你能到场回答他们的问题 She'd like you there to answer questions.
这是我的荣幸 I should be honored, of course.
但愿宴会成功 I hope it's a success.
人们对房子好奇 Well, people are curious about the house,
他们想要你的钱支持自己的爱好 they want your money for pet causes,
且你的孩子们都风姿出众 and your children are both good-looking.
宴会一定能成功 I'd say it will be.
你能帮她吗 怀特先生 Can you help her, Mr. White?
怎么帮 我并非名流 How? I'm not fashionable.
但我非常高兴有机会郑重感谢你们 But I'm glad to be able to thank you properly
愿意给我机会 for taking a chance on me.
你该谢谢罗素夫人 不是我 You have Mrs. Russell to thank, not me.
先不论缺点 她想象力丰富且品位出众 Whatever her faults, she has imagination and taste...
而且胆量过人 And nerve.
她在纽约 这三点缺一不可 She will need all three in New York.
这些还需要您签名 I've left them for you to sign.
-谢谢 斯科特小姐 -母亲 - Thank you, Miss Scott. - Hello, Mother.
游子归乡了 The wanderer has returned.
你该早点告诉我的 You took your time coming to tell me.
这是帮我写信的斯科特小姐 This is Miss Scott who is helping with my post.
-我的儿子 范莱茵先生 -你好 - My son, Mr. Van Rhijn. - Hello.
我先告辞了 I'll leave you.
看看她的字迹 Look at her work.
-亚当斯先生呢 -我在这里跟他见面 - Where's Mr. Adams? - I'm meeting him here.
你为什么希望我把他带过来 Why did you want me to bring him?
你应该早点回来 You should have come earlier.
你到家已经很久了 You've been home for ages,
但还一直没见过你的表妹 and you've never even met your cousin.
我现在这不是来了 Well, I'm here now.
-她在这待多久 -为什么这么问 - How long will she be staying? - Why?
我已经要照顾艾达姨妈了 Well, I'll already have Aunt Ada around my neck,
前提是如果您出了事 that's if anything should happen to you.
你为什么总是这么刻薄 Why must you always sound so sharp?
我猜这栋房子今后 I presume I'm expected to keep
应该需要由我来继承经营吧 the house running indefinitely.
你不用担心玛丽安 I shouldn't worry about Marian.
她一定会比我离开得早的多 She'll be gone long before I am.
-你为什么这么确定 -玛丽安 亲爱的 - What makes you so sure? - Marian, my dear.
你一定还没见过我的儿子奥斯卡吧 I don't believe you have ever met my son, Oscar.
范莱茵先生 Mr. Van Rhijn,
我都开始以为你只是虚构的人物呢 I was beginning to think you were only a dream.
我们应该亲吻吗 毕竟我们是表亲 Should we kiss? We are cousins.
还是先握手吧 Let's shake hands for now.
但我希望你叫我奥斯卡 But I hope you'll call me Oscar.
他之前在欧洲 He's been in Europe.
我知道 我真是太羡慕你了 I know. How I envy you.
都是些无聊的会议和满是尘土的会议室 It was mostly dull meetings and dusty boardrooms.
-我可不信 -亚当斯先生 - Oh, I can't believe that. - Mr. Adams.
亚当斯先生 你能来真是太好了 Mr. Adams, how good of you to drop by.
-你要来点什么 -不用 - What can we give you? - Nothing.
谢谢 范莱茵夫人 Thank you, Mrs. Van Rhijn.
请允许我介绍下 这是亚当斯先生 亲爱的 May I present Mr. Adams, my dear.
这位是玛丽安·布鲁克小姐 是我的侄女 Miss Marian Brook is my niece.
她刚来到这座城市 She has just arrived in the city.
这是你第一次来纽约吗 Is it your first visit to New York?
这算是我第一次出远门 It's my first visit to almost anywhere.
您能介绍下哪些地方值得一去吗 Can you help me with what I should see?
我相信范莱茵夫人一定能列出 I'm sure Mrs. Van Rhijn will have
完整的博物馆清单 a comprehensive list of museums.
看来罗素一家趁我不在时搬了进去 So the Russells have moved into their house in my absence.
别再让我想起这件事了 Don't remind me.
我在纽波特遇见了他们的儿子 I ran into the son in Newport.
他人挺好 我想他们还有个女儿 He's nice enough, and I gather there's a daughter.
-是的 -我很想见见她 - I believe so. - I should like to meet her.
-你们要去他们的聚会吗 -当然不去 - Are you going to their soirée? - Of course not.
-别再提这事了 -妈 你简直是顽固不化 - Don't say such things. - Mama, you are incorrigible.
我把这句话当作对我的最高夸奖了 I take that as the highest praise.
我还需要四个篮子 I need four more pallets.
把米放好 我马上就回来 Rice stacked. I'll be right back.
这边 This way.
她说两百人 但如果超出这个人数 She said 200, but I must be ready
我必须马上做好准备 备出餐食 with more at a moment's notice if we go over that figure.
所以有什么问题吗 So what's wrong?
我不会做火腿三明治 I'm not making ham sandwiches.
我也不会去烤面包 I'm not making toast.
我深表遗憾 先生 但我们都有自己的任务 I sympathize, monsieur, but we have our orders.
夫人不懂得该如何安排这些事 Madam does not understand how these things should be managed.
你再说一遍 I beg your pardon?
你我都很清楚 她不属于这个群体 You know as well as I do she isn't one of them.
格里斯沃尔德家族 源自英格兰 纽约的政治世家
我以前为50大街的格里斯沃尔德夫人工作 I used to work for Mrs. Griswold on 50th.
所以夫人才雇用了我 That's why Madam hired me,
教她世家的处事之道 to teach her the ways of the old people,
如果是格里斯沃尔德夫人 but Mrs. Griswold
就根本不会靠近这个房子 wouldn't have come near this house.
那她就是个愚蠢的女人 Then she was a very stupid woman.
我们这位女主人玩不转这种名流游戏 The mistress is not a player in the great game,
不管她怎么说 whatever she says.
特纳小姐 我希望你能收起你的反感 Well, Miss Turner, I hope you can overcome your distaste
并帮助女主人 and give the mistress a helping hand
穿好晚上的礼服 with her clothes for the evening.
显然 世道变了 Surely things are changing.
对罗素先生来说 变得还不够快 Not fast enough for Mrs. Russell.
你一直表现得还挺喜欢她的 You always act as if you liked her.
当我不得已的时候 When I have to.
她没有真正名门该有的风度 She does not have the manner of the real people,
而且她也学不会 and she cannot learn it.
格里斯沃尔德夫人一眼就能看穿她 Mrs. Griswold would see through her in a moment,
只需一眼 in just a moment.
如果她这么完美 你为什么要离职 If she was so wonderful, why did you leave?
还是说你是被开除的 Or were you fired?
她去世了 沃森先生 死于心脏病 She died, Mr. Watson, of a heart attack
就在她为阿斯特夫人的舞会梳妆打扮时 just as she was changing for Mrs. Astor's ball.
格里斯沃尔德先生很难接受这一事实 It was very hard on Mr. Griswold.
因为他成孤家寡人了 Because he was left all alone.
因为他想参加那场舞会 Because he wanted to go to the ball.
你快准备好了啊 那我去换衣服 Oh, you're almost ready. I should get changed.
不用着急 There's no hurry.
我只是想早点下楼 I just want to be downstairs
去监督所有最终细节 to supervise all the final details.
感觉像是钉子钉上去的一样 Oh, it feels as if it's held on with nails.
你看起来棒极了 You look superb.
那么... So...
你准备好担任女主人的角色 接受检阅了吗 are you ready for your trial by hospitality?
如果我现在做不好准备 那永远都别想了 Well, if I'm not ready now, I never will be.
你母亲以前怎么说来着 What was it your mother used to say?
"你是我所有孩子当中 "You are the only one of my children
唯一配得上我梦想的" who is worthy of my dreams"
那些梦想对她很重要 Much good did those dreams do her.
她活着时一无所有 死后也一样清贫 She had nothing while she lived and nothing when she died.
但你爱她 You loved her.
-所以她并不是一无所有 -谢谢 - That wasn't nothing. - Thank you.
你不觉得她会为今晚的你感到骄傲吗 Don't you think she'd be proud of you this evening?
不知道 午夜时再问我一次 I wonder. Ask me again at midnight.
我希望你邀请了一些旧相识 I wish you'd invited some of the old crowd.
今晚这里会挤满陌生人 The house will be full of strangers.
我们现在的生活与从前完全不同了 乔治 We're headed in a different direction now, George.
我们加入了完全不同的俱乐部 We're joining a different club.
尽管他们并不希望我们加入吗 Even if they don't want us to be members?
我们为什么不能是其中的一员 Why shouldn't we be members?
我受够了那些愚蠢又无聊的女人 I'm tired of letting all those dull and stupid women
对我们的生活方式指手画脚 dictate the way we live our lives.
这十年来你对这座城市的贡献 Why, you've done more for this city in ten years
比他们的家族几个世纪以来的贡献还多 than their families have achieved in centuries.
事情会变化 贝莎 Things are changing, Bertha.
对我来说变得还不够快 They can't change fast enough for me.
而你已经进步了许多 And you've come a long way.
连我都能看出来 Even I can see that.
我不想进步很多 I don't want to come a long way.
我想要脱胎换骨的变化 I want to go all the way.
我只希望你开心 I'd just like you to be happy.
我知道只有我的爱对你来说不够 And I know my loving you is not enough.
基本上够了 It's almost enough.
我该走了 I should go.
沃森会好奇我去哪了 Watson will be wondering where I am.
真了不得 是吧 Quite a spectacle, isn't it?
他们肯定下了不少功夫 Well, they sure are taking a lot of trouble.
错过宴会肯定让你难过 It must seem hard to miss the party,
但艾格妮丝的立场很坚决 but Agnes feels so very strongly.
她不能强迫我讨厌他们 She can't make me dislike them.
-她不会想这样 -她就希望这样 - Nor would she want to. - Yes, she would.
她或许会 但我不会 Well, perhaps she would, but I would not.
我到楼下等你 I'll see you downstairs.
你不该对艾格妮丝有偏见 You mustn't think harshly of Agnes.
她的生活并不是一帆风顺 Her life has not always been easy.
她为什么这么讨厌我父亲 Why did she hate my father so?
他卖掉了我们家族的农场 He sold our family farms.
他卖掉了我们出生的房子 He sold the house where we were born
我们已经在那居住了150年 and where we had lived for a century and a half.
然后他花光了所有钱 And then he just spent the money.
没有购置 也没存留 He bought nothing. He saved nothing.
他没给自己的姐妹留下任何东西 He gave us, his sisters, nothing.
所以她觉得他背叛了你们 So she felt he'd betrayed you both.
对她来说确实如此 That's how it was for her.
我们的父亲很早就去世了 You see, our father had died quite young,
我们的生活全都依靠亨利 and we depended on Henry entirely.
她那时还没结婚吗 So she wasn't already married?
没有 但对方求婚了 No, but he'd proposed,
所以她觉得自己别无选择 and so she felt she had no choice.
亨利让我们失望了 Henry had let us down,
所以她别无他法 只能嫁给范莱茵先生 and there was nothing for it but to marry Mr. Van Rhijn.
但他不好相处 And he was not an easy man.
他不是那种你希望单独相处的男人 He was not a man you would like to be alone with.
我只希望你给我们一次机会 All I ask is that you give us a chance.
我们不像亨利描述的那样 We are not as Henry described us to you.
拜托 Please...
就给我们一次机会吧 just give us a chance.
楼下都准备就绪了吗 Is everything ready downstairs?
大家都很兴奋 老爷 They're all rather excited, sir.
从我们搬进这里后一直在期盼着 Been waiting to entertain on a grand scale
召开盛大的晚宴 since we got here.
前提是能有众多宾客前来的话 As long as we are entertaining on a grand scale.
把菊花拿走 Take out the chrysanthemums.
我特意强调过 "不要菊花" I said specifically, "No chrysanthemums."
好的 夫人 Yes, ma'am.
他们什么时候去人行道铺地毯 When are they laying the carpet across the sidewalk?
现在正在铺 夫人 They're doing it now, madam.
鲍丁先生没有太歇斯底里吧 And Monsieur Baudin isn't too hysterical?
-这个嘛... -我们该开饭了 - Well... - We should start dinner.
不如你去看看吧 Why don't you look in?
你不用久留 You needn't stay for long.
艾格妮丝姑姑肯定会大发雷霆 Aunt Agnes would have a fit.
她必须知道吗 Does she have to know?
我可以在楼下等 I could wait downstairs
确保你到时候能进屋 to make sure you can get back in.
我的同谋 My fellow conspirator.
我们得让他们进来了 We must let them get in here.
他们得把这里收拾干净 摆放晚餐了 They need to clear away and start laying the supper.

有什么我能做的吗 母亲 Is there anything I can do, Mother?
-去睡觉 -她不是孩子了 - Go to bed. - She's not a child.
你一直这么跟我说 So you keep telling me.
没人会在乎她是否还未亮相 Well, no one will mind that she isn't officially out,
至少在她母亲的房子里不会 not in her own mother's house.
而且她为什么还没亮相 已经到时候了 Why isn't she out, anyway? She ought to be.
她今年应该在社交圈初次亮相 She should have made her debut this year.
我希望在这栋房子里的舞会上让她亮相 I wish to present her at a ball in this house,
我不会举行舞会 and I'm not giving one
除非我知道能让宾客纷沓而至 until I know we can fill the rooms.
让她留下吧 亲爱的 Let her stay, my dear.
如果你们要一起跟我作对 If you're all going to bully me--
我能帮忙 I can help.
好吧 去换衣服吧 Oh, very well. Go and get changed.
-丘奇 让大家都进来 -好的 夫人 - Church, tell them to come in. - Very good, ma'am.
我想上去躺会 I think I may go up and lie down.
我有点头疼 I've got rather a headache.
不如今天早点睡吧 What about an early night?
到时候看 您不介意我先走吧 I'll see. You wouldn't mind?
当然不 Not at all.
玛丽安呢 Where's Marian?
她上楼了 有点头疼 She's gone upstairs. She has a headache.
她之前在问你为什么不喜欢亨利 She was asking earlier why you disliked Henry so.
你告诉她了吗 Did you tell her?
对 但我尽量平铺直叙 I did, but I tried not to make it too vivid.
她有时候真像他 She can be so like him at times.
她一开口 我就听到亨利的声音 She speaks and I hear Henry's voice,
像他一样质疑一切 challenging everything just as he did.
瞧瞧最后他落得什么下场 And look how that turned out.
我倒是喜欢她观点鲜明 Well, I like her strong views.
我喜欢她的活力 I like her energy.
别担心 艾格妮丝 她很聪明 Don't worry, Agnes, she's clever.

她们有事抽不开身 I'm afraid they couldn't get away.
但你意志更加坚定 But you are made of sterner stuff.
拉里 Ah, Larry.

这是玛丽安·布鲁克 你们是邻居 Miss Marian Brook. You're neighbors.

-费恩夫人 -谢谢 - Mrs. Fane. - Oh, yes, thank you.
失陪 Excuse me.
我希望小狗已从惊吓中恢复 I hope the little dog recovered from its shock.

你瞧 布鲁克小姐 我父亲的钱 You see, Miss Brook, my father's dollars
并不总能得偿所愿 do not always have the desired effect.
通常可以 但并非屡试不爽 Usually, but not always.
-你似乎也并不介意 -确实 - You don't seem to mind much. - I don't.
这些事应该顺其自然 These things should happen naturally.
不像我亲爱的母亲 Unlike my dear mother,
我并不认同强迫改变 I'm not a big believer in forcing change.
那我猜她和我的共同点 比你我的共同点多 Then I suspect she and I have more in common than we do.
你跟姑姑们一起住得还愉快吗 How are you enjoying living with your aunts?
她们收留了我 所以我该感到感恩 They've taken me in, so I should be grateful,
但我们似乎有很多观点分歧 but we seem to disagree on so many topics
我想最终肯定会引起一番大争执 that I'm sure we'll come to blows in the end.
或许你们能互相说教 Perhaps they'll educate you, you'll educate them,
然后相互妥协 and you'll meet somewhere in the middle.
-布鲁克小姐 -你好 罗素小姐 - Hello, Miss Brook. - Hello, Miss Russell.
你们见过面了吗 Have you met?
对 但你不能告诉我姑姑 Yes, but you mustn't tell my aunt.
费恩先生没有一起来吗 Is Mr. Fane not with you?
他非常想来 He wanted to be very much,
但工作让他忙得无法脱身 but business has tied him to his desk.
还有莫里斯夫人 她之前对这栋房子兴趣浓厚 And Mrs. Morris, she was so curious about the house.
她也非常渴望参观 How she longed to come.
但她也脱不了身吗 But she couldn't get away either?
太可惜了对吧 Isn't it a shame?
确实可惜 尤其是想到 A real shame when you think
你们都希望从我这拿到支票 of the check you both want from me.
我知道 但我想着如果我一个人来 I know, but I thought if I came alone
然后逗留几分钟 那也许能... and just stayed a few minutes, then that might...
我是说 I mean--
我很清楚你的意思 费恩夫人 I know what you mean, Mrs. Fane.
请你千万别觉得自己有义务逗留 And please don't feel you have to linger.
实在没必要 It's really not necessary.
你走吧 费恩夫人 Just go, Mrs. Fane.
请回吧 Please go.
不知是否能请你叫马车送我回去 I wonder if I might ask you for a carriage across town.
没问题 夫人 这边走 Yes, of course, madam. Right away.
她没久留 She wasn't here long.
我猜一定是母亲又吵嘴了 I suppose Mother's made another quarrel.
恐怕我也不能久留 I'm afraid I can't stay either.
我只想过来露个脸 拜访你父母 I just wanted to look in to pay my respects to your parents.
-希望我们能再见面 -那是肯定的 - I hope we can meet again. - I'm sure we will.
我们三人做朋友吧 Let the three of us be friends
无论发生什么 in spite of everything.
排除万难 Contra mundum.
这就走了吗 布鲁克小姐 Leaving already, Miss Brook?
我必须得回去了 但谢谢你邀请我 I'm afraid I must get back, but thank you for including me.
邀请你什么 For including you in what?
感谢前来 布鲁克小姐 Thank you for coming, Miss Brook.
那是谁 Who was that?
我们的邻居 玛丽安·布鲁克小姐 Our neighbor, Miss Marian Brook.
你没必要把气撒在她身上 亲爱的 And there's no need to be angry with her, my dear.
她的姑姑们肯定不允许她来 The aunts will have forbidden her to come,
但她选择违背她们 and she has chosen to defy them.
-可为什么敌人一定是我 -那很简单 - But why must I be the enemy? - Well, that's easy.
他们自从五月花号登陆后就一直掌管大权 They have been in charge since the "Mayflower" landed,
如今轮到你们了 因为你们是未来 and now it's your turn, because you are the future,
如果你们是未来 那他们就必然是过去 and if you are the future, then they must be the past.
这让他们胆战心惊 That's what frightens them.
布鲁克小姐 你来这干什么 Miss Brook? What are you doing here?
-艾格妮丝婶婶知道吗 -不 - Does Aunt Agnes know? - No.
-请别说漏嘴 -你不说我也不说 - And please don't give me away. - I won't tell if you don't.
晚安 Good night.
希望我们能在更加熟悉的环境下再次见面 I hope we meet again soon in less foreign climes.

-其实已经好了 -那就好 - Quite gone, in fact. - I'm glad.
我们该上楼了 We should go up.
来吧 艾达 Come along, Ada.
你早该睡觉了 It's long past your bedtime.
对了 我们决定给你一份适当的零花钱 By the way, we have decided to make you a modest allowance.
不多 但能给你些自主权 It won't be much, but you'll have a little independence.
可你已经送了我那么多衣服 But you've already given me so many clothes.
胡说 别说这些见外话 Fiddle-faddle. No nonsense, please.
我不配 真的 I don't deserve it, truly,
因为我不能保证自己遵守艾格妮丝姑姑的要求 as I cannot promise to live within Aunt Agnes' confines.
我明白 I understand.
我只希望你永远不要打破自己的道德准则 I only ask that you never break your own moral code,
这是任何人能拥有的最全备的人生指南 for that is the soundest guide any of us can have.
您太有智慧了 艾达姑姑 How wise, Aunt Ada.
别显得那么意外 Please don't sound quite so surprised.
这些要怎么办 What will you do with it all?
