本片段劇情：莎拉在做美甲時意外看見了杰克，她不顧一切地沖出去喊住杰克，這時一個漂亮女孩跑到杰克身邊，看起來和杰克很親密。莎拉頓時陷入尷尬……

本片段對白：

Charlie: When they remake this, they gotta add a happy ending and nudity.

Jake: They won't remake it. Nobody wants to watch this kind of yearning nowadays. It's too painful. Modern man can't take it.

Charlie: This has gotta end, Jake. There's a world beyond Zhivago-land. You gonna forget about the dog-park girl and live again.

Jake: You think your friend still wants to buy my boat?

Charlie: Let him chop it up, stick it on his wall?

Jake: Call him.

Charlie: Seriously?

Jake: Tell him to come by the boat basin this weekend. I'll row it down myself. And call some of those insane, pansexual girls you're so fond of. I want a date every day until Christmas.

*********************************

Sarah: Where have you been all my life?

Eric: Waiting for you. You are absolutely perfect. You know that, don't you?

Sarah: I do. But it's still nice to hear.

Leo: Hello, hello. Hi. Look at you, cute jammies. Already in them, a little early for that. Come on, have a seat. Eric, come on. All right. Now...Eric and I are here to cheer you up, and we have many options.

Sarah: I'm ready.

Leo: First, there's line dancing at the Grove. Very Southwest, mid-'80s.

Eric: Too gay.

Leo: Or...we can use these teacher gift certificates for midnight manicures.

Eric: Perfect. Can we do that?

Leo: That's not too gay?

Eric: No.

Leo: He keeps the mystery alive, doesn't he?

Manicurist: What color?

Sarah: White.Caucasian.

Manicurist: What color nail? After wax.

Sarah: I don't know. What do you think?

Manicurist: Your nail, not mine.

Sarah: The light pink one. Yeah.

Manicurist: Not much love life, huh? Not getting younger.

Sarah: Did you hear that? What is that? Why do I always get the surly manicurist?

Leo: I don't know. Does a good job, right?

Sarah: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I'll be right back. Jake! Jake!

Jake: Sarah.

Sarah: Jake! Hi.

Jake: Hi.

Sarah: This is so weird, because I've been thinking about you so much.

Jake: Nice to see you. Oh, you're all... You look like...

Sarah: I keep thinking about you.

Jake: What do they call those? Pot sticker, with the potholders.

Sherry: Hi. I'm ready, Jake. Sorry I took so long. Hi. I'm Sherry.

Sarah: Hi.

Jake: This is Sarah. We just saw Doctor Zhivago at the Grand.

Sherry: Yeah.

Sarah: Oh. Doctor Zhivago.

Sherry: It's Jake's favorite movie. I didn't get it.

Sarah: Oh, I've seen it like 20 times.

Sherry&Jake: Really?

Sarah: Yeah.

Sherry: Why? It's so depressing. Everybody's freezing their asses off. They're communists, right?

Jake: Yeah.

Sarah: I guess I keep hoping that one time, Lara and Yuri will get together again. In the springtime, preferably. And wear shorts.

Sherry: Okay, but they can't, because it's just a movie.

Jake: It's a book too.

Sherry: Yeah, that's cruel.

Jake: Yeah.

Sarah: Anyway...

Jake: Oh. Thanks for bringing that up.

Sarah: Okay, I have to go get de-waxed.

Jake: Sarah, it was really nice seeing you again.

Sarah: Nice to meet you.

Sherry: Nice to meet you. Not again.

Sarah: Yes. Thank...

Sherry: Yeah. Bye. Do you want to be Russians tonight?

Jake: Let's go. Well, Sherry, I think I'm gonna say good night.

Sherry: You're not coming in?

Jake: No, I'm kind of tired. I'm gonna go home.

Sherry: Aren't we gonna do the Russian thing?

Jake: Нет. That's Russian for "no."

Sherry: Was it something that I did...?

Jake: No, no, no. I'm just really tired.

Sherry: Tired. Yeah, it was a long movie.

Jake: Really long.

Sherry: Bye.

******************************

Eric: It seemed like it was gonna be so perfect. You chase him down the street, he turns, he sees you, he takes you in his arms, fireworks explode. It's happily ever after.

Sarah: You're leaving out the part where he was with another woman.

Leo: I say you call him. Or better yet, go over there, break into his house, throw yourself at him, make a complete fool of yourself. It worked for me.

Eric: It was very effective.

Sarah: No, he's with someone else. I have to face it, it's just not gonna work out with us.

Eric: And you'd really like it to, wouldn't you?

Leo: I can't take this. This is breaking my heart.

Eric: Mine too. But let's look on the bright side. Your nails look fabulous.

Leo: They do. They look so good. Let me see those. Look at these hands.

Sarah: Thank you, guys.

Jake: Turn around, this is your favorite part. She's wearing that hat you like.

Sarah: That's my side, thank you very much. Mother Teresa. I love you too.

妙語佳句 活學活用

1. yearning: 思念，渴望。請看例句：

The trees come up to my window like the yearning voice of the dumb earth.

綠樹長到了我的窗前，仿佛是暗啞的大地發出的渴望的聲音。

2. boat basin: 小船泊地。

3.pansexual: 泛性戀的，指的是那些對所有性別皆會產生身體吸引或愛慕情緒的人。

4. jammy: 令人愉快的。這里指“令人愉快的人”。jammy的本義是“涂上果醬的”，例如：

I am baffled by the choice, but settle on a Strawberries, a doughnut with a jammy, creamy centre.

我被這么多口味的選擇弄暈了，最終還是選了草莓味的，就是甜甜圈里有著果醬和奶油夾心的那種。

5. line dancing: 排舞。

6. manicure: 修指甲。美甲師是manicurist。

7. Caucasian: 白種人。影片中美甲師問莎拉想讓指甲涂成什么顏色，莎拉以為她是在問膚色。

8. surly: 無禮的，不友好的。看一下例句：

The coffee is served by a surly male, whose lip curls at the chore of handing me my coffee and change. （端咖啡的男人臉色陰沉，給我咖啡和找零時撇著嘴。）

9. leave out: 省去，略去。例如：They must decide what to leave out.（他們必須決定省去什么。）

10. look on the bright side: 對事物抱樂觀態度；往好處想。

But look on the bright side: the window displays are free.

但是，也可以看到光明的一面啊：看看商店櫥窗的陳列不需要花錢吧。
