I kicked ass in that meeting我在推介会上表现令他们刮目相看
Tom: "Nice suit."
衣服真好看啊。
Lynette: "Just hear me out. I was gonna take it back, I swear."
先听我说完。我本来是要拿去退的，我发誓。
Tom: "But?"
但是？
Lynette: "But then I started thinking about it, and you know what? Ill be damned if Im gonna pitch to a roomful of people who are all wearing Armani and Vera Wang, while Im standing there with two-year-old breast milk crusted on my lapel."
然后我转念一想，我觉得如果我要穿着翻领上还有两年前母乳印的破套装，去对着一屋子穿着阿玛尼和维拉.王的人做推介，那我简直太逊了。
Tom: "Lynette..."
勒奈特
Lynette: "And you know what else? I kicked ass in that meeting because of this suit."
你知道吗？就因为穿着这套装，我在推介会上的表现令他们刮目相看。
Tom: "It is a suit. Why are you so obsessed with it?"
不过是件套装罢了，你至于这么痴迷吗？
Lynette: "You cant explain obsession, Tom. It just is."
汤姆，痴迷本身就是个迷啊，它难以解释。
Tom: "No, we are parents. We cant afford the luxury of obsessions."
我们既然已经为人父母了，就不该再痴迷于奢侈品。
Lynette: "See? Thats where I think we have been making a terrible, terrible mistake."
你看，这就是我无法苟同的地方，我们以前真是大错特错了。
Tom: "What is this?"
这是什么玩意儿？
Lynette: "Sometimes we just need to get something that makes us happy. I know that sounds selfish, but Ive been thinking. It might make us better people and maybe even better parents."
有时候我们要学会及时行乐，我知道这听上去很自私，可我想，这样或许会让我们脱胎换骨，甚至更出色的父母。
Tom: "No. No, Lynette, no. This is wrong."
不行，绝对不行，勒奈特，这行不通。
Lynette: "Carbon...fiber...shafts."
碳纤维高尔夫球杆。
Tom: "Wow. I feel like a better parent already. Oh, yeah!"
我的天啊，我似乎已经是个更出色的家长了。
