Robbie: You really miss your family, don't you?

Robbie: Hey, why don't we go out for a cheeseburger and French fries? That'll cheer you up. And you can use my Walkman.
诶,要不然我们出去吃一顿奶酪汉堡和炸薯条吧?这样会让你舒畅些,你还可以带上我的随身听,听音乐。
Alexandra: That's a good idea. But if we go out, please don't complain about your math teacher or your math homework. I want to have fun.
好主意。可是我们要是出去的话,你可别老抱怨你的数学老师或你的数学作业。我想要玩得高兴一些。
Robbie: So do I. [ He begins to turn off the lights. ] I have to turn off the lights, or else my father will get really angry. He says I never turn them out when I leave. If they come home and they're on ... [ He moves his index finger across his throat to show that his father will be angry. ]
我也一样。我必须得关上灯,要不然我爸爸会生气的。他说我出门时从不关灯。要是他们回来看见灯还亮着… 我就死定了。(做抹脖子手势)
