Come on open the door, tough guy.
Okay.

Well, technically, they meant nothing to me.

Woman in the back. Go ahead. Hi.
lnstead of once a year, have you considered a monthly forum where...
students and teachers could exchange thoughts in an effort to enhance...
communication and bridge gaps?
That's a...
That's a great comment, Mrs...
Miss Hamilton.
l also wondered if you'd thought of monthly mixers for single parents.
Not that l don't want to meet married parents as well.
l would.
lt's just that sometimes we single parents...
have different concerns than married ones.
Different priorities. lf you know what l mean.
And by priorities l mean:
l need to meet a good man.
ln that case, where do l sign up?
Okay, well, this was interesting.
Where were we here?
So you're just not going to talk to me for the rest of your life?
Come on, Holly.
Every unmarried parent there appreciated the suggestion.
Did it ever occur to you that the point of the meeting...
wasn't for the needs of the single parent?
That the point of the meeting was maybe for, l don't know...
the kids? Well, sure.
l was just thinking- About you!
Because you're always thinking about you.
She's doing it again.
Only this time, I can't smile and play along.
Because the truth is I'm tired...
of bubble- wrap and change of address cards, of figuring out new towns...
and finding new friends.
It's just not fun anymore.
It's just not.
You know what the entire student body...
is talking about this morning?
The Krispy Kreme truck that got in a wreck on Eighth Avenue.
There's donuts everywhere.
lt's a total free- for- all.
Between the excitement and the sugar buzz, everyone's pretty much...
forgotten everything that happened before 8:00 this morning.
lt could have been worse.
Don't worry, it will be.
lt always starts the same.
l mean, she starts out hopeful, and then when the perfect man...
doesn't come around in two weeks, she gets desperate...
and hooks up with some loser.
Some guy who's not even good enough to mop her floors.
And then, when it doesn't work out, because it never works out...
we pack up and move again, and there's nothing l can do about it.
l can't even run away because that's what she does.
l thought you said you didn't mind all the moving around.
l didn't. l mean, l don't. l just got here.
The River Bistro.
What are we doing here?
l can't even afford to pee in a place like this.
Much less actually eat here.
Relax, it's under control.
My uncle's the owner.
Him?
You've got to be kidding. No, him.
No, you didn't do that, did you?
Well, how long did you keep her waiting?
What? An hour?
Of course she's mad.
What? Hold on.
This is Holly. Hi.
Hi, Holly. Nice to meet you.
Why wouldn't she be mad?
Well, there's only one thing you can do: flowers.
And you can't go cheap, either. Nope.
A dozen, long- stemmed.
He knows about females.
He knows more about females than l know about females.
ln my opinion, roses always work, always.
He doesn't actually believe that, does he?
But who am l to know?
Call me tomorrow and let me know how it worked out. Bye.
Yes, l do believe that. Don't you?
- That flowers always work? - Yeah.
Not if the guy's a loser.
The flowers aren't going to change anything.
Flowers are just flowers, right?
Wow, your friend's so cynical.
Sounds like she's not into romance.
You know what?
This is for you. Why?
Because a flower like this is perfect.
And giving a woman a dozen of them, it's like saying...
there is such a thing as perfect.
And it's out there.
Don't give up. You'll find it.
Really?
A yellow rose says all of that?
Actually a yellow rose is for your sick grandma.
For a woman, a red rose.
But if you really want to knock her socks off, you give her an orchid.
Why? What do orchids say?
You ever seen an orchid?
How it floats in the water, so delicate and beautiful?
When a woman gets an orchid...
well, she feels like...
she's floating on a cloud of infinite possibility.
l swear l'll pay you back.
l still don't get how flowers from you will fix things.
Well, they're not flowers, they're orchids.
And they're not from me. They're from her perfect man.
Then let him pay.
l would, if he existed.
l'm lost.
Do you remember what your uncle said?
An orchid will make my mom feel special.
Which will make her happy. And not so desperate.
Which would make me happy, and then everybody wins.
- Holly? - What?
- Are you sure this is a good idea? - l'm sure.
A few flowers never hurt anyone.

l hope so. l've never entered anything.
Hi, girls.
Mommy, are you sick?
What?
You don't look normal.
l got a letter.
What kind of letter?
lt's a love letter.
What does it say?
One second.
Hey, you! Give me that!
''My dearest Jean.
The letters J- E- A- N used to spell out just another word for denim.
This guy is great, Mom.
"But, since l found you, l hear those four- letter words..."
"and all l think about is another four- letter- word:"
"love. L- O- V- E."
Love? Yeah.
He loves you? That's what he said.
Zoe, he's trying to be romantic.
''Being near you is like standing on a triple word score.''
He plays Scrabble.
''Everything matters three times as much.
''The sun shines three times as bright...
''and l am three times as happy.''
What's this?
He gave you a present? l like him now.
Smart, witty, romantic.
You can't still think this guy is Lenny, right?
lt is kind of hard to picture Lenny playing Scrabble.

Yeah, a CD of a band l'd never heard of, but l loved.
lt's like he knows me better than l know myself.
So why is he hiding?
- He's not hiding. He's just... - Just what?
Excuse me? Can you help me?
Dinner's ready.
There must be something wrong with him.
- Who? - Mr. Wonderful.
What? No, there's nothing wrong with him. He's perfect.
Then why all the secrecy?
Why doesn't he just come on over, show his face, and say hello?
Like a normal person.
Listen to yourself.
The man wants to be the least bit romantic...
and all of sudden you think he's not normal.
How do l know if he is? And if he is, what does he look like?
ls he tall, is he short?
Does he have blond, curly hair, straight, black hair, what?
l bet he has a big, fat wart on his nose.
l bet that he's really, really handsome.
And how would you know?
He writes like he's really handsome.
Honey, have you seen pictures of Shakespeare? Bald, skinny.
Does that even really matter?
Yes. Because you can't have a relationship with a man...
you've never laid eyes on.
Honey, l've got a party of 50 coming in a half an hour.
lt will only take a second.
Oh, You can take my picture. Just be sure to get my good side.
Over here, Brad Pitt. Over here, David Spade, not so cute.
No, l'm just swamped, l'm sorry.
Hey, Uncle Ben, what's that stuff you put on top of your spinach salad?
Parmesan what? Cheese.
Ben. lt's a nice name.
Uncomplicated. Dependable. Ben.
And it's way better than Lenny. And he's way cuter than Lenny.
Don't you be mean about Lenny. He's a good egg.
Just not the egg for me.
l like this egg. l want this egg to be my boyfriend.
When's he coming over? As soon as he gets back.
Well, where did he go?
He's opening up a new restaurant in China.
And the phone lines there are impossible, evidently.
So as soon as he gets back, he's going to call.
Cool. What else does the letter say?
That's private. Excuse me.
China.
How are we ever going to get a stamp from China?
We won't.
Now that he's traveling, he asked her to send...
her e- mail address to his e- mail address.
He has an e- mail address?
Brooklyn Boy, this new account that l'm setting up.
Well, at least it's consistent, since everyone lies in cyberspace.
But we can't use the computer at my house in case my mom finds it.

Who else?
lt's kind of messy.
lt's kind of dark.
Oh, yeah.
Should be on.
Thank you so much for letting me do this.
You must think that l'm crazy, but at least my mom's happy, you know.
lt's such a change...
'cause she usually spends most of her time depressed or with idiots.
Maybe l should try it.
My mom only smiles once a month when the alimony check comes.
And if she's been dumped a lot? Then what?
A lot?
That's a tough one.
I guess the perfect guy would be...
He could be anywhere in the world...
but he chooses to be with her because...
life is better with her by his side.
Dear Passionate Baker...
I'm spending my days with very serious business people...
and I know I should be listening to every word they say...
but all I keep thinking is...
what am I doing all the way in China?
- Unbelievable. Listen to this. - Come on. Let's go.
lt's from Ben.
''l planned this restaurant before l'd ever laid eyes on you.

Dear Brooklyn Boy...
if your food's half as good as your letters...
nothing would make me happier than having your restaurant on my block.
But I'd hate to deprive the nation of China...
of that kind of satisfaction. So open your restaurant there first.
Dear Passionate Baker...
as long as I'm in the kitchen cooking...
it doesn't matter where I am.
It's a real specific kind of satisfaction, isn't it...
cooking for people?
I'm only a baker, but I put as much creativity and passion...
into my cakes as a painter puts on a canvas.
Granted, when all's said and done, all I've made is a cake.
But then again, you can't eat the Mona Lisa.
Waiting, the Passionate Baker.
Dear Passionate Baker...
creativity and passion, huh?
I'm starting to figure out what makes you tick.
And as for the Mona Lisa...
after a few thousand years...
people are going to get tired of her smile.
But a good fudge brownie is eternal.
Dear Brooklyn Boy...
I'm modest about some things, but not this.
I make the best fudge brownies on the planet.
Well, it just so happens...
I make the best homemade ice cream.
Ice cream and brownies.
Now that's a good combo. That's all I'm looking for.

Okay.
Fancy running into you here.
What time is it there?
Late.

It is. Late morning.
What are you doing?

About what?
You'd be bored.
Try me.
If I stop replying, you'll know I fell asleep.
Well, I have kids. Have I mentioned that?
No. That's great.
Two daughters. Seven and sixteen.
They're lucky to have you as a mom.
You are the only person on earth who would say that.
And it's just because you haven't met me.
I've made so many mistakes.
Everyone makes mistakes.
Yeah, well, I make whoppers, over and over...
and my kids are the ones who suffer.
It's not fair.
This wasn't the plan, you know.
I had a big future in mind when I was younger.
I was going to be a famous baker.
Like Julia Child, but with desserts.
I was going to go to a fancy cooking school.
Write cookbooks.
Make people fall in love with baking again.
I had all the applications, too.
I was in the middle of filling them out when I learned I was pregnant.
I thought it was good news.
A baby fit into my happily- ever- after plan just fine.
But it didn't fit into the guy's.
Or maybe it was me that didn't fit.
Whichever. I was on my own.
So you had your kid instead of fulfilling your dream.
I guess I did.
If you had to do it all over, would you have gone to school instead?
Life definitely would have been easier if I'd done that.
Gotten my act together first.
Had kids later. But those kids...
wouldn't be Holly and Zoe.
And life without Holly and Zoe, I can't even imagine it.
It's just no life at all.

l was inspired.
l miss you.
Why did you bug out on me?
Newsflash.
Everyone's scared.
That's no reason to run away.
It's what my mom does.
And you want to end up like your mom?
Some role model.
l heard once that...
love is friendship on fire.
That's how l feel about you.
Do you really have to go?
Holly, guess what? l get to be in a spelling bee.
C- O- O- L.
What are you doing? Unpacking.
Yeah, but why?
l thought that we all agreed that it was time for a new adventure.
This is our new adventure. Staying is our new adventure.
What?
Why can't you ever do anything that l want?
l want to be alone.
Nobody wants to be alone. l do.
Okay, l'm through with these people and l want new ones.
Unfortunately, honey pie, new people are only new for a day.
After that, they're just people.
Who will excite you, disappoint you...
scare you a little bit.
And, boy, l know how tempting it is to run away when that happens.
lt's good for avoiding things. But the problem is you end up...
avoiding yourself.
Avoiding people you love.
You end up avoiding life.
So, l've decided to start setting an example for you girls.
l'm going to try showing you what sticking it out looks like.
Really get to know people.
And let people get to know us.
l don't promise to be any good at it, but l will try.
Because l want you and Zoe to be better at this than l am.
l want you to learn how to let people in.
He's a sweet boy. l think it would be worth it.
Turn it over. Everything always has two sides.
You want a bigger ring?
Combustible.
C- O- M- B...
U- S- T...
l- B- L- E.
Combustible.
That is correct.
J!

Ladies and gentlemen, five minutes.
Five minutes. We'll be commencing in five minutes.
First place goes to Number 73, Jean Hamilton.
You did it, Mommy!
Where? The second one?
Yeah, that's Mom.
Hi, may l help you?
Yeah, l heard that you can find...
the best fudge brownies in the world here.
We try.
l'll take this.
Ben. Hi.
On the house.
No, l have to pay you somehow.
How about dinner?
l don't even know you.
Well, l don't know about that.
Thank you. That is very sweet.
But l don't think so.
Are you dating someone? Actually, no.
For the first time in my life, l'm not.
And, and l think l should stay this way...
until l get my feet back on the ground.
l see. Yeah.
- lt's nothing personal. - No, of course not.
You know, l should probably take a dating moratorium, too.
l recommend it.
Yeah, clean- out- the- closet sort of thing.
lt's a good idea.
You know, get my head together and...
Exactly.
So, pick you up Saturday at 8:00?
Perfect.

Holly 把门开开啊
我不确定这样行不行
快点 开门啊 你这倔家伙
好吧
你看起来美极了 转过来我看看
我不相信你竟然说服我去参加舞会
你好像说过你之前去过100万所学校
是啊 学校 不计其数 舞会 从未去过
我去开
去吧
自我保护是件简单的事
我的意思是 当你频繁搬家的时候...
你就是不能让自己有所牵绊
根本不用 计划去参加学校舞会
我不想打断你 但确切的一星期之后...
你就可以彻底定居了
也许你是对的
惊喜!
- 请进 - Jean
我们需要谈谈
谈什么?
Jean
- 为什么? 你怎么能这样做? - Jean
- 等等 你再叫我名字试试 - 冷静下来 请冷静
我们可以有涵养地处理完这件事
我马上回来
涵养?
- 冷静下来 - 不 为什么跟我说这个
- 你爱上她了吗? - 她对我来说谁都不是
好吧 更准确地说 她们对我来说什么都不是
"她们" ?
我们看看这件事好的一面吧
祝你一天过得愉快
再跟我解释下这是怎么回事
Patsy回来了
打包时间到了 我们搬家
这是不是意味着你不去舞会了?
我们这周末就搬家了
我会和你保持联系
再见
我会想念你的
这回我们去哪?
Dolores` bakery有个职位空缺
你知道我一直都想去那的...
而且你和你妹妹会喜欢Brooklyn的
又到了开始新历程的时候了...
亲爱的 我很抱歉
我知道你好不容易在这认识了一些新朋友
没什么大不了的
朋友哪都有 对吧?
嘿 所有的博友们 是我 总搬家的女生
好吧 劲爆消息:
我妈妈又一次心碎了
是的 我们即将启程开始一段新冒险
那是妈妈逃离伤心地的托词
"T I C" (在玩拼字游戏)
Trick
Stick
嘿 Mary Sunshine 小姐
跟我们一起玩吧 说出个有 "tic" 的词
好吧
Tragic
Fantastic
Pathetic
Ecstatic
谢谢
Sarcastic
Psychotic
那遗传的哦
依托于一些奇迹...
我妈妈一路上只被开了1张超速罚单
是Jean Hamilton 女士
你结婚了没?
他应该给她开个冒失调情的罚单
哇哦!
不过我一定要说件事
对于你们中还没做过这件事的人来说
把" 必看纽约地平线"...
放在你的遗愿清单上
哦 哇哦
哦 女孩们!
我敢打赌这件房子充满着趣味 天花板上有美妙的雕纹...
还有老式的硬木地板
和在早餐桌角散落的老鼠便便
- 多美妙啊 - 别那么说了
一切会非常完美的
不幸的是 我对此很擅长
如果其他都失败了 我会有一个有前景的未来...
作为职业迁居者
我们的新公寓历史悠久而别有性格
还有外来的本地野生动植物
我妈妈称它为家
我称它目击再安置计划
妈咪 看呀!
在那呢 我告诉过你
和在Wichita一样吧
每晚它都还会出现
即使在困难时期
提醒人们每天都要把握美的潜力
天晚了 我还在擦窗户
那么 是时候铺床单了
虽然我不知道它们在哪个箱子里
继续花些时间阅读我的在线日志...
沉浸在一个吉普赛少女的生活中 我会在这儿
我还是我 只是换了邮编
不 就是这样 我不去 你和他一起
不好意思
- 看看她 - 嘿 你
是的 就是你
你那鞋子多少钱?
什么?
我的花了50美元
- 你的呢? - 免费
我从Portland的一个垃圾箱找到的
你赢了
再见 怪咖
嘿 你是新生吗?
是的 你怎么知道的? 你的皮肤
我的皮肤看起来像新生吗? 不 看起来纯净
没有纹身 没有刺青
注意到没 我们布鲁克林区女孩 五年级就开始折腾我们的皮肤了
五年级我才刚开始学长除法
全体学生 注意
每天到学生指导室报道...
那很糟
你要去采集你的年鉴照片...
和秋季所有错过的差劲人一块儿
我不拍年鉴照片的
你别无选择
就像税收和死亡 (名言)
强制痛苦 如果你不自觉的话...
他们会像逮动物一样抓住你然后强迫你微笑
如果我不再留这儿 他们就不会
- 我很高兴你来了 - 谢谢
现在 我们把搅拌器放后面
但我还是要警告你 它们比上帝都老
而且真的不怎么好用...
它们只能把东西移来移去
所以我希望你的手动搅拌器形状好些
还要留神我们那一无是处的烤箱
它比在Chapel Hill (教堂)的那个还差
离开时要调高10度
好吧 你知道我的
- 我离开时候会选上更好的方式 - 是的 你是
喔 这是Gloria Gloria 这是Jean...
- 就是我和你谈起的那人 - 认识你非常开心
我也一样
你知道玫瑰花瓣为什么蔫了吗?
软糖太软了
你需要再加点玉米淀粉
瞧 我告诉你她很棒吧
难怪我的朗姆蛋糕总显得那么醉醺醺的
帮帮我 我喜欢你
你从不吃蛋糕吗?
你准时来的吗? 是的 我在这儿呢
全体同学 注意了
才艺表演面试将于...
本周五晚上在礼堂举行
快出来向我们展示你的才能吧
那是我的座位
座位是分配安排的吗?
- 不是 但... - 为什么你不坐在那儿?
我不喜欢坐在前面
我也不喜欢
这很大吧?
- 真得好美! - 是好沉
我需要一台吊车来抬起我的手指
好吧 亲爱的 如果他足够好的话...
你也就无需再抬一根手指
真开心我听你的了
他是个顾客
整件事都是Dolores在教我
什么时候给他额外的甜甜圈 什么时候矜持
- 你还没告诉我那个 - 我和你说过
你只是不想听而已
所以我才有几段糟糕的感情经历
亲爱的 如果前男友是美元...
你现在就满载而归了
现在 亲爱的 你要做的就是...
妈妈 你要做的就是签了我的报名表格
已经4点了?
朋友们 这是我的女儿 Holly
- 嗨 - 我要去拿我的钱包
看看你! 都这么大了
小胸部什么的都发育起来了
欢迎来到Brooklyn Holly
朋友们 明天见
- 别难为她 - 我已认识她很久了
那和我说说 情况怎么样?
- 挺好的 - 再多说点
打扰一下 很快的 我是那边的
我只是感到疑惑 那难道不疼吗?
疼什么?
你知道的 当你从天堂坠下的时候
因为我刚刚想到像你那张脸...
你肯定是一个天使 对吗?
这套路对你有用吗?
好吧 我只是想逗你笑笑 这只是第一步
我是Lenny Horton 面包经理
我做 你知道的 面包
我们有意大利面包 法国面包 巨松卷...
不同种类的皇室卷 皮塔饼
- 你喜欢吃皮塔面包吗? - 我是Jean
这是我女儿 Holly
嘿 你好吗 Holly?
很好 我觉得在你了解第二步前我们还是走吧
Lenny 告诉我你没有用 "天堂" 那招
Holly: 新学校的第一天总是同样的感觉
像是在一个新行星上呼吸新空气
你能把这扫描到Match.com吗?
妈妈 我忙着呢
忙什么呢?
你必须马上做这个吗?
这次你就不能等一下嘛...
试着以正常的方式遇到一个男的?
看见这些皱纹了吗?
我可是跟时间在赛跑
现在起来帮我扫描这东西
每一秒都在流逝 滴- 答 滴- 答
如果一个学生将手机带进学校 它将被没收...
无论如何...
对不起 我甚至不知道为什么我们会在这
从现在起的四个月他们不可能会成为我的老师
不要太消极 Holly
不允许进入学校建筑物
只允许在十一月和二月之间戴冬天的帽子
并请保存在自己的储物柜里
现在 我想要向你们介绍我们指导部的负责人
Charles Fitch博士
嘿 Fitch!
- 嘿 Fitch博士 - 嘿 大家好
让我告诉你们我是怎么运作指导部的
我的办公室是开放的 这意味着你能拜访我的办公室...
随时恭候
我还有开放的领导政策
没有愚蠢的问题
所以 你有什么不明白的 请来找我
妈妈
或者举手提问
- 后面的女士 有请 - 嗨
除了年会 你考虑过月度论坛...
在那学生和老师能交换思想从而来
增加交流和消除代沟吗?
那是个...
那是一个很棒的意见 女士...
Hamilton 小姐
我也希望你能考虑一下每月一次的单亲家庭座谈
并不是说我不想见到已婚家长
我想的
只是因为有时我们单亲的父母..
与已婚的那些相比有着不同的关注点
不同的优先顺序 如果你明白我的意思
关于优先顺序我是指:
我需要遇见一个好男人
那样的话 我在哪报名呢?
Fitch: 好吧 那么 这很有趣
我们说到哪儿了?
那你是余生都不打算和我说话了?
拜托了 Holly
那儿的每个未婚的家长都赞赏那个建议
你想过没有那个会议的焦点...
不是为了满足独身父母的需求?
会议的焦点可能会是...我不知道...
- 孩子吗? - 当然
- 我只是想到... - 你自己!
因为你总是只想你自己
Holly: 她又那么做了
只是这次 我无法微笑和嬉戏
因为事实是我厌倦了...
泡沫包装 地址变更 疲于找好的新小镇
和找新的朋友
这样不再有趣了
只是不
你知道整个学生群体...
今天上午谈论什么吗?
Krispy Kreme (甜麦圈牌子) 车在第八大街上抛锚了
到处都是甜甜圈
完全免费
在兴奋与糖果的嗡嗡声之间 每个人几乎...
忘记了今早8点以前发生的一切
可能会更糟的
别担心 会的
开始总是一样的
我是说 她一开始满怀希望 然后当完美男人...
在两周内都没出现 她就变得绝望...
于是去勾引一些差劲的人
一些甚至不够格来给她拖地板的家伙
而然后 当有所不顺的时候 因为从来没顺利过...
我们收拾再搬家 对此我无能为力
我甚至不能逃跑因为那正是她在做的事儿
我原以为你对搬来搬去不会介意
我不介意 我指我现在也不介意 我只是刚来这儿
The River Bistro
我们来这做什么?
我甚至连这类地方的厕所都上不起
更别说在这里吃东西了
放松 一切都在控制之中
我叔叔是这的所有者
他?
Ben: 你开玩笑的吧 不 是他
不 你没那么做 对吗?
好吧 你让她等了多长时间了?
什么? 一个小时?
她当然会生气了
什么? 等一等
- 这是Holly - 嗨
- 嗨 Holly - 很高兴见到你
她为什么不生气呢?
好吧 你只有做一件事儿了: 鲜花
而且不能选便宜的 不
一打 长梗的
他了解女性
他比我更了解女性
在我看来 玫瑰总是奏效 总是
他事实上不相信那个 对吗?
但我要认识的是谁呀?
明天给我打电话 告诉我结果吧 再见
是的 我相信那个 难道你不信吗?
- 鲜花永远奏效那个? - 是啊
如果那人很差劲的话就不奏效
花将不改变任何事情
鲜花只是鲜花 对吧?
哇哦 你的朋友这么愤世嫉俗啊
听上去她还没恋爱
你猜怎么着?
- 这送给你 - 为什么?
因为一朵像这样的花很完美
给女士一打这样的话花 好比在说...
有这样完美的一件东西
它就在那儿
不要放弃 你会找到它的
真的吗?
一朵黄玫瑰阐释了所有这一切?
事实上一朵黄玫瑰是送给你生病的祖母
给女士 红玫瑰
但如果你真的想要打动她 给她一支兰花
为什么? 兰花的花语是什么?
你们没见过兰花吗?
它漂浮在水上 是多么的精巧和美丽?!
当一位女士得到一束兰花...
嗯 她会感觉到...
漂浮在充满无限可能的云端
我保证我会还钱给你
我依旧不明白你那的鲜花怎么解决问题
好吧 他们不是普通鲜花 是兰花
而且它们不来自我 而来自她的完美男人
那让他付钱呗
我会的 如果他存在的话
我不明白
你记得你叔叔说什么了吗?
兰花会使我的妈妈感觉很特别
那会使她开心 不在感到绝望
她开心我也会很高兴 对所有人都好
- Holly? - 怎么了?
- 你确定这是个好主意? - 我确定
几朵鲜花不会伤害任何人的
"恼人的哺乳动物"
六个字母
嘿 妈妈 Badger (獾)
天呐 我好渴
是蜂鸣器在响吗?
五个字母 "排成一行 也许"
妈妈 那不是蜂鸣器在响吗?
泰晤士报这么自作聪明
我现在得去洗澡
嘿
不好意思
你好 那是我的花
不 它不是 是我的
- 你的名字是Jean吗? - 不 那是我的女朋友的名字
好吧 卡上写了什么?
写了 "送给我亲爱的女朋友...
- 在她生日这天 我多么爱她" - 把我的花还给我
你能再疯狂点吗?
我只是把他们拿给你
哇哦! 好美
- 那些事给谁的? - 给我的
真奇怪 有人送我花?
- 谁? 卡上说什么? - 我们看看
"能有多少女士穿面包坊制服 看起来像一个女神?
"而你是之一"
谁送的这些?
"一位神秘的仰慕者"
他会是谁呢?
好吧 显然是在商店看见你的某人
是的 但是他怎么知道我的名字的?
喔 你戴着名字牌 不是吗?
或是我住哪儿? 啊? Google
或是怎么知道我喜欢兰花的?
或许他曾跟着你回家
非常奇怪
不 可能很可怕
妈 你看 这是一个男人曾为你做过的...
最浪漫的事
别再质疑了 享受吧
你说得很对
你为什么在浴袍下穿着牛仔裤?
你想遍体鳞伤吗?
你叔叔是个天才
- 管用了? - 她欢歌笑语!
她以前从来不唱欢快的歌曲
是啊 好吧 我也不 不过别给我送花好吗?
我喜欢那种方式
嘿
嘿 检查下 我脸上有果酱或别的什么吗? 看看Jean
我只是稍微注意她一点 她整个人就像孔雀开屏一样洋洋得意
是公孔雀才会开屏
你知道我在说什么 那个是动物的反应
她像一头母狮 让公狮知道她准备好了
是公狮子先发情
同学们 别忘记阅读42和43章节
周五会有个测试
请问能耽误你一会儿吗?
快点!
那是什么?
- 没什么 - 那是我吗?
不 是别人
这张脸
这看起来正像是我的脸啊
不 不是的
好吧 脸是有点像
但那是位骑马的女子
你没有骑马啊
那完全是不同的人
画得相当好
当我还是一个孩子的时候 我爸爸赞助过漫画协会
他会带上我
当你长时间在那逗留的话 你也会画了
那你经常和你爸爸呆在一起?
不 事实上是在他和我的妈妈分开后...
那是我们在一起做的唯一的事情
但 嘿 至少我学会了画画 对吧?
离婚却成就了你的绘画事业 很好
那么 嘿 你有过吗?
离婚? 还没有
不 是去漫画展
不 也没有
好吧 有一个即将举办
现在起的六周后 Westside会议中心
听上去很讨厌 但是很有乐趣
嗯...我并没有什么打算 你知道的
有人问起过我吗?
- 比如谁? - 我不知道
- 任何人? - 没有
嘿 Jean
这上面写满了你的名字
Dolores 你疯了
才没有! 她是对的 你太好了不适合这个地方
这比赛面向专业人士
我是说 我基本上只是个销售人员
向我解释下
怎么会当你看着你一个男人时...
看不到他的缺点...
对于你自己 你却看到的全是瑕疵?
- 嗯? - 嗯
是你吗?
man: 是的 是我 宝贝
嗨
我爱兰花 谢谢
- 这是玫瑰 - 我也很喜欢
那么你周六晚上有空吗?
你打算做什么?
没什么 就是要震撼你的世界 宝贝
哦 我的世界没那么容易撼动
就对了 让他为此努力 女孩
那是因为你从来没有让你的世界...
被世界撼动者Lenny Horton震撼过
好吧
不妨说我查了我的社交日历...
而结果是我周六晚上有空
我们要去哪里?
只是去听最棒的美国乐队...
曾吹奏出电力民谣
冥河音乐会
我从没做过的事情
你刚听说冥河吗?
这门票很畅销的
我一定很喜欢你
- 好吧 那就周六晚上 - 周六
周六
什么?打住?
Lenny不可能是你的神秘仰慕者
没有什么是不可能的
不 有些就是不可能
就像一个送你最浪漫的兰花的男人...
却转身送你一支黄玫瑰
那种花...
是送给你生病在床的祖母的
Zoe: 我去开
妈妈 拜托了 你能听我的吗?
我看过那个便条 好吗?
一个像那样的男人...
一个诗人 他不会带一个女人去冥河音乐会
好吧 那是不同的
好比花生酱和三明治
那不意味着你要吃它
Holly 我喜欢这个家伙 他看起来也喜欢我
给他一个机会能要你命吗?
- Zoe公主吗? - 是的
你可以从我美丽的项链看出我是个公主
N- E- C- K- L- A- C- E- S
好吧 是的 那说得通
嗨 Lenny
哇哦 Jean 喔哈! 漂亮的行头
该死的 你从什么地方弄到的?
谁是辣妹.com?
好吧 那么 你需要的都带上了?
- 嗯 让我把这个穿上 - 好的
嘿 Holly 你妈妈说周六晚上是电影之夜
那么你想对我说什么...
你会带Zoe公主去看Bambi (电影)吗?
我不确定Bambi是否还在上映
那真遗憾 因为我只是急切地带着...
我7岁的妹妹看电影而我妈妈...
被邪恶的男性猎人杀掉
我想去看那个
谢谢你 Lenny 你真好
乖乖的
哇哦! 太棒了
嗯 是一辆1980年的庞蒂亚克双车门 拆卸式车顶
有着原始的油漆 原始的排气管
我重装了收音机 检查了各处的螺丝
而事实上 我准备了...
在这准备了新的乘客垫子 所以你不介意...
在上车之前 把鞋脱了吧?
我真该买双病人用的便鞋
等下 你有吗?
让我猜猜
生病的祖母争论没有用?
Holly: 她根本听不进话
她忙着把自己打扮成Lenny太太了
他太出格了
- 怎么出格了? - 我不知道
听着 我准备把 Zoe 放在 Dolore 家...
而后我们8点的时候在Bistro见
吃点冰淇淋会有帮助的
不 但你叔叔会
他知道怎么用兰花...
那他肯定知道下一步该做什么
再见
那不会就是冥河乐队吧
不 那些人是游动乐队 他们是为冥河热场的
是啊 歌手唱得不如原唱
但如果闭上眼睛 你听不出有什么区别的
喔 你能听出来
我们有个疑问
Mel 把那两张桌子并一起
孩子 能等下嘛? 我有点忙
- 不 真的很重要 - 是为了我们学校的课外作业
明天就要交了
我们想知道一个完美男人会做什么...
在送完兰花之后
嗯 我们明天再谈好吗?
等等 还有什么比完美男人更重要的?
哦 完美的鞋子
Lance 拜托了
不要对我说 "Lance 拜托了" 了
你还是抽个空帮帮姑娘们吧
你尝下这新品Shiraz...
坐在你的位子上 让善良的老Lance来处理一切吧
好吧 五分钟
别在吧台摆弄你的头发 Lance
那 你们学校的论文在写些什么 约会还是些?
是的
- 哇哦 究竟会是什么课呢? - 英语
我正在找浪漫英雄 像文学作品里的那种
比如说... Romeo
罗密欧 莎士比亚小说中的浪漫人物
对 或者Heathcliff (男主角)
参照这些角色...
与现实生活中对应的角色进行比较
但你不相信浪漫
我正在努力
好吧 姑娘们 我真的不是这方面的权威
性感!
什么使今天的完美男人变得完美?
他说什么或是做什么能使他成为女人的完美男人呢?
好吧 那得看情况 每个女人都不一样
但是你说过兰花能征服所有女人的
当你示爱时 确实如此 我是说 那只是一个...
那是一个开始 那是...
他必须做出进一步的接触
他得明白怎么打动她
那就是为什么 如果你不知道那女人谁...
这吗讨论就没什么意义
她难过时会听Patsy Cline
假设那样的话
假设她这么做了
那代表什么?
Patsy Cline是她的悲伤乐曲?
等一下
现在
这是盘很放松的音乐
留着它 你知道吗?
即使他能让她开心起来...
他也绝不能做一个害怕眼泪的男人
这音乐真像是为我们而写的
如果她喜欢猜字游戏呢?
就是胡拼乱凑那之类的东西?
哦 不错 好东西
动点脑筋 拼些单词 我也挺喜欢的
而如果她被甩很多次? 该怎么办?
很多次?
那她很坚强
我猜完美男人会...
他是个会...
他可能在世界上任何地方...
但他选择和她在一起因为...
有她在他身边生活变得更美好
你认为怎样? 我通过测试了吗?
很高兴认识你
别说了!
有麻烦了
- 好啊 小可爱 - 你好 Amber
嘿 好吧 婚纱设计 斜纹剪裁 时髦的婚礼
哪儿出了问题?
要花一小笔财产
不 那是谎话 是一大笔财产
这是你的大日子 尽管做吧
- 真的吗? - 是的
我崇拜你
好的 蛋糕的事怎么样?
知道吗 姑娘们? 我真得去工作了
我在想着蛋糕层 巧克力 草莓
Amber 我们明天再谈这个吧
Lance 离那女士的钱包远点
- 她很美丽 - 是啊
他们真是天生的金童玉女 我们走吧
这儿 让我帮你拿着这个吧 好了吗?
- 哦 Lenny 我 - 糟糕 我们淋湿了 小心看路
我真不知道该怎么说 这真是...
现在 Jean 这真是个美妙的夜晚
我得告诉你 我真的 你知道
我真的 我能习惯这一切的
你是个接吻好手
我今天真的很开心
好的 那么上班时再见 好吗?
我的鞋子 对不起
80年代的回顾怎么样?
你吓我一跳!
他那辆破车简直比喷气式飞机还响
他也许把所有的邻居都吵醒了
Holly 为了我 你能给Lenny一次机会吗?
妈妈 为了我 这次你能慢慢来吗?
你都不知道还有谁会在那儿等着你
是 但我知道的是
今晚我过得很愉快
哦 我们编织了一张多么纠缠的网
"当我们第一次行骗的时候!" (课文内容)
谁想谈谈那是什么意思?
- 他需要给她写封信 - 谁?
完美男人
Adam 你能解释一下吗?
是的 就是你
你认为Walter Scott先生在说什么?
- 你要去伪造一封信? - 我必须去 如果我不...
我妈妈就会永远得错下去...
直到听到Roboto先生的声音
好吧 我想 他的意思是谎言会越编越复杂
因为?
通常当你撒了一个慌后 你就不得不说第二个来自圆其说
但是她能完全认出我的笔迹
- 她认不出我的 - 对
这样每个谎话都会引出下一个...
一个接一个 事情就会变的越来越复杂
直到最后 你留下了一大堆的谎话...
以至于你都无法摆脱
- 放学后就行动吧 - 没问题
- 太棒了 - 好的 说的不错
Alana "纠缠的网"指代什么?
如果她喜欢字谜游戏呢?
就是胡拼乱凑那之类的东西?
哦 不错 好东西
动点脑筋 拼些单词 我也挺喜欢的
我知道我正在妄想的边缘...
但我能说什么呢?
非常时期要求非常策略
相信我 如果你见过Lenny...
你会舔好信封再借给我张邮票
嗨
她的队伍哪去了?
她需要独处一段时间...
思考些事情
什么样的事情?
哦 你知道的 比如说下一步该做什么
你知道的 她是否要...
和王子一起建立联盟或者还是孤军奋战
她会选择哪个呢?
我觉得她会和王子一起
- 真的? - 哦 是的
他是那种很棒的家伙
他英俊 善良
还有-
- 击剑 - 击剑 对
你应该看看他击剑 他就像是个职业选手
每次伙伴约他出去时...
他总说 "不行伙计 我还要练剑呢"
你想坐下吗?
不了
我和人有约了 所以...
我还以为你不是个喜欢都计划好的人呢
嗯 是的
Holly? 你认为我们会待在这儿吗?
我不知道 为什么问这个?
有个很盛大的拼字比赛 所有的学校都要参加
我的老师选我参加
我打赌你会赢的 你是我知道的最棒的拼字者
是的 只是要两个月后才会比赛
好吧 你并不知道啊 或许我们还在这儿呢
希望如此 我从未参加过任何比赛
嗨 姑娘们
妈咪 你病了?
什么?
你看起来不正常
我收到一封信
什么样的信?
是一封情书
写些什么?
稍等
嘿 你! 给我!
"亲爱的Jean
"字母J- E- A- N通常作为牛仔服的别称"
妈 这家伙真不错
但是,自从我遇见你以后 当我听到这四个字母的单词...
我的脑海里只有另外一个四个字母的单词:
love,L- O- V- E"
- 爱? - 正是
- 他爱你? - 他就是这么说的
Zoe 他在尝试着浪漫些
"靠近你,就好像站在三个单词的联结处"
他也玩字谜
"每件事都变成了三倍
"太阳放射出三倍的光芒...
"我也得到了三倍的快乐"
这是什么?
他给你送礼物? 我有点喜欢他了
聪明 机智 浪漫
你不会还认为这家伙就是Lenny吧?
真难想象Lenny会玩字谜
快来啊 妈妈 我们跳舞
你跳 妈妈!
妈妈
不! 来吧
真不敢相信
他还给你礼物了?
是啊 一张我从没听过的CD 不过我很喜欢
他好象比我更了解我自己
那他为什么躲着呢?
- 他没有躲,他只是... - 只是什么?
打扰一下 能帮我个忙吗?
晚餐准备好了
他一定有点不对劲儿
- 谁? - 完美先生
什么 不 他没任何问题 他完美极了
那为什么那么隐秘?
他为什么不直接过来露个面打个招呼呢?
就平常人那样
相信自己的感觉吧
那个男人只不过想浪漫一点...
你却突然说他不正常
我怎么知道他是否正常? 而如果他是 他长什么样子?
他是高还是矮?
他是金色的卷发 黑色的直发 还是?
我打赌他的鼻子一定又肥又大
我打赌他一定非常 非常英俊
你是怎么知道的?
从他的文笔看出来的
宝贝,你见过莎士比亚吗? 秃头又干瘦
那有什么关系吗?
是的 因为你不可能和一个...
一个从没见过的人交往
亲爱的 半小时后我还得准备一个50人的派对
就一小会儿
哦 你可以拍我 只要角度够好
这边 Brad Pitt 这边 David Spade 不要太帅
对不起 我真是忙不过来了
嘿 Ben叔叔 你在菠菜沙拉上放的是什么?
干酪 还是? 奶酪 (拍照时说cheese 如同说茄子)
Ben 是个不错的名字
不复杂的 可信赖的 Ben
这可比Lenny好多了 也比Lenny帅多了
别对Lenny那么苛刻 他是个好人
只不过不是我的好男人
我喜欢这个男人 我想让这个男人做我的男朋友
他什么时候过来? 只要他回来
好吧 他去哪儿了?
他在中国开了家新的餐馆
而很显然不可能电话联系
因此只要他一回来 就会来电话
酷 信上还说了什么?
那是隐私 不好意思
中国
我们到哪儿去弄一张中国邮票?
没必要
既然他在旅行 他会让她把...
她的电邮地址发到他的邮箱
他有邮箱?
布鲁克林男孩 这是我申请的新帐户
呃 至少这还是相符的 在电脑网络里大家都在说谎
但不能在我家用电脑 以防被我妈妈发现
我本该提供的,但是我弟弟24:7 (一天24小时每周7天) 都要用它来...
eBay上买那些小游戏王卡
还有谁呢?
有点乱糟糟的
有点暗
哦 是的
应该拉开的
非常感谢你让我这么做
你一定认为我疯了 但至少我妈妈快乐 你知道的
这是个很大的改变...
因为她的绝大多数时间总是很失望 或者是和一群傻瓜在一起
或许我也该试试
我妈妈只有在每月收到赡养费支票时才会露出微笑
而如果她被甩很多次? 那怎么办?
很多次?
那她很坚强
我想完美男人应该是...
他可能在世界上的任何地方...
但他选择和她在一起因为...
有她在他身边生活变得更美好
亲爱的热情面包师...
这些天我和非常严肃的商人在一起...
而我知道我必须清楚地听他们说的每个字
但我总是在想...
我为什么大老远来到中国?
- 太不可思议了 听这个 - 快 我们去
Ben寄来的
"在见到你之前 我就计划了这个饭店"
"如果能重新选择的话...
"我情愿就买下你隔壁的房子然后就开在那"
他宁愿和我在一起
为什么不给他回信呢?
好主意
抱歉
亲爱的布鲁克林男孩...
如果你的食物能有你的信一半诱人的话...
没什么比在我的街区有你的餐馆更使我开心的了
但我不喜欢剥夺在中国...
能拥有那种满足感的权力 所以还是先在那儿开吧
亲爱的热情面包师...
只要我在厨房做料理...
我身在何处并无关系
是种特别的满足 而不是...
仅仅为人们做食物?
我只是个面包师 但我把很多的创造力和热情...
都融入到我的蛋糕中 正如画家在粗帆布上挥洒
当然 一切努力之后 我的作品就是一个蛋糕
但是 你不能吃蒙娜丽莎
等待回信 热情面包师
亲爱的热情面包师...
创造力和热情 嗯?
我开始知道什么使你如此有活力了
至于蒙娜丽莎...
千百年之后...
人们会厌倦她的微笑
但是好的核仁巧克力蛋糕却是永恒的
亲爱的布鲁克林男孩...
我对很多事都很谦虚 但对这个不会
我能做世界上最好吃的乳糖核仁巧克力饼
哦 事情就是那么凑巧...
我能做做好的自制冰激凌
冰激凌与干果巧克力软糖
真是个完美的组合 这就是我所盼望的
属于我的完美组合
我可以把自己最好的一面展现给一些人...
而一些人可以使我最好的一面展现出来
最近怎样?
惊喜 惊喜
Lenny 有些事情我必须得告诉你
我们不需要言语
我知道你要说什么 我也有同样的心情
不 说出来对我很重要
- 我遇到了一个人 - 他名字叫Lenny...
"他震撼了我的世界" 我早知道
而我知道你害怕了 我也害怕了
可我还知道 即便世界颠倒过来...
亲爱的 你我仍然会心心相映
最佳时光
这些就是 "最佳时光"
我遇到别人了
什么?
我是说 我并没有遇见他 但是可能...
但一个完美男人正站在这 就在你身边
Lenny 我真的很抱歉 真的
你是个好人
很抱歉 这不是...
"良辰吉日"
嘿
我正在给妈妈写邮件 但是她突然登录了
- 和她即时通讯 - 可以吗?
是的 这样会使Ben更真实 不是吗?
好吧
很惊喜能在这看见你
你那边几点了?
很晚
我还以为是早晨呢
是啊 只是快到中午了
你在做什么?
只是在思考
关于什么?
你一定没兴趣的
试试看吧
如果我没反应 就证明我睡着了
好吧 我有孩子 我提到过吗?
没 不过那很不错
两个女儿 一个7岁一个16岁
有这样的妈妈她们真幸福
世界上也只有你会那么说
而那也只是因为你还没见到我
我已经犯了太多的错误
每个人都会犯错
是啊 可我犯的错太大 一而再 再而三...
而我的孩子也跟着受苦
这对她们不公平
计划不是这样的 你知道吗
当我年轻的时候也有过美好的憧憬
我要成为著名的面包师
就像是Julia Child一样 但要有甜点
我会去优等的烹饪学校上学
撰写烹饪书
使人们再次爱上烘焙
我也拿到了所有的申请
就在我踌躇满志的时候 我得知自己怀孕了
本来我很开心
小宝贝定会给我的生活带来更多的乐趣
但她的父亲却不这么想
或许我太天真了
不管怎样 我们还是分手了
你为了孩子而放弃了梦想?
可以这么说吧
如果可以再来一次的话 你会选择读书吗?
那样的话 生活当然会更轻松
先做好我的事业
再要孩子 但是那些孩子...
就不会是Holly和Zoe了
而我甚至无法想象没有了Holly和Zoe 生活会变成什么样子
那就毫无生活可言了
特别留言...
给所有被单身妈妈抚养长大的博友们
让妈妈们歇会儿吧
她已经做了她能做的最好的了
是啊
好的 一块樱桃糕
是啊 那会很棒
$12.99 谢谢
谢谢 再见
您需要点什么呢?
顾客们 注意了
要来点提神的吗?
为什么不去一下我们的咖啡角...
给自己来杯 焦糖玛奇雅朵(意大利浓缩咖啡)呢?
但是记住 咖啡可能很烫
那种灼伤的痛你将终身难忘
痛入肌肤
他在说笑吗?
柔嫩 脆弱...
易受伤害的肌肤
所以当你端起咖啡时 确保去要一个杯托
或者期待另一个人来治愈你的心伤
谢谢
我买了这个蝴蝶发卡 你可以用来...
把发髻别着 但不要拉
- 好的 - 有点疼
好吧 我先安顿好Zoe 再去Gloria的聚会
别把房子烧掉了
哇哦 看你多漂亮
在哪儿开派对 Ritz?
附近吧
一个叫River Bistro酒吧的狂欢地
- 不! - 噢!
那不是超出大家的预算了吗?
是的 但Gloria的弟妹和他们的送奶员一起工作...
他给她弄到了派对房间
我听说那儿的菜真是糟透了
在那儿吃过的人都会呕吐好几天
我去冒冒险 走吧 宝贝
- 他在哪儿? - 我不知道
也许在饭店 也许在家
这样吧 你去饭店我去他家
如果我见到他 我缠住他 现在 他的地址是什么?
"在埃及卷土重来"
七个字母
哦 泰晤士报真是自作聪明
- 你好? - 嘿 感谢上帝你在这儿
- 你是? - 我是Holly
- 谁? - Amy的朋友 Holly
哦 Holly 是啊 嗯 Amy不在这儿
我知道 事实上我是来找你的
真的有很重要的事情
好吧 我给你开门
门开了
- 嗨 - 嘿 向前直走
- 嘿 - 嗨
哇哦!
这是我这辈子看到过的...
最棒的厨房
- 真的? - 是啊
谢谢
我认识些人一定会喜欢死这个厨房的
- 我打赌Amber一定非常喜欢 对吗? - Amber?
哦 我喜欢的东西她都想试试...
但厨房除外
你坐下来我给你倒杯苏打水怎么样?
- 怎么样? - 好啊
你用钢笔填字迷?
是啊 有什么不好吗?
你对月亮怎么看?
什么意思?
你不觉得它有些奇妙吗...
不管如何艰难 它每晚总会露面..
提醒人们每天都要把握美的潜力?
- Amy都跟你说了些什么? - 没什么啊
她只是说了你是个很聪明的人而已
而我刚来到这个大城市
要去新的学校
我也没有爸爸可以求助
所以我想到来问问你
哇哦 好吧 我想我可以试着帮帮忙
不过 知道么我并不那么在行(指以父亲角色答疑之事)...
你想知道什么呢?
没什么
只是 我正处在青春期而已
很多事情让我感到困惑
我是谁 生活的意义是什么
我应该去哪所大学
我是不是应该上大学
我努力克服各种压力做各种事情...
但我知道 我不该做这些事 但有些事我的确想做
如果你能明白我的话
我正在考虑戴鼻钉和脐钉...
还有其他9个地方 我也想打钉眼
但是我妈妈说如果我这么做的话 她一定会杀了我...
所以我正在考虑在后背弄个纹身
但也不一定是在背上啦...
因为那样的话就太低调啦 大家会看不见的
除非我把衣服穿得够露 我真的很困惑
纹在哪儿?
- 谁啊? - 是Ben吧
- 是我 怎么了? - 我们这碰到大麻烦了
- 非常大 无比大 - 怎么了?
那个做菜的大玩意上的指示灯? 又不亮了
不 它不可能坏的 我两个月前才买的
Ben 我告诉你 我现在能闻到的唯一气味 是Pablo身上的
好的
请冷静 我马上就过来 再见
Holly 我的餐馆有事要处理所以我得走了
- 不 你不能走! - 为什么?
- 我的意思是 我可以一起去么? - 当然 为什么不呢? 来吧
我真得去下洗手间了
恩 呃 去吧
那边那个就是洗手间 快去吧
就过了那扇门的就是
我喜欢这个装饰盒
哇哦 这一定是开玩笑呢吧
这也太小了吧 能遮住什么
那正是目的所在 哈哈
Houston 我们有麻烦了
什么样的麻烦? 非常非常棘手的那种
他现在正在去餐厅的路上了
哦 我的天呐! 我们怎么办?
分散他的注意力 要那种非常有力的
我去那找你 回见
我们一定要坐出租车去么? 我讨厌坐出租车
- 也许我们应该走着去 - 你怎么了 疯了么?
- 我们去River Bistro - 我晕车
朋友们!
来啊 有免费啤酒喝哦
免费啤酒!
来点啤酒吧
是啊 上点啤酒吧
嘿 到你休息的时间了 再见啦
- 嗨! 怎么样啊? - 很好
今天是有乡村人士的聚会吗?
我们看到外面的招牌了 想来喝点免费啤酒
免费啤酒? 我为什么给你免费啤酒啊... 哦 我会给你免费啤酒的
你看起来渴极了
多谢啦 朋友们
我觉得我需要另一些含羞草(饮料)...
来打开剩下的礼物
我去找服务员
Lance!
- 嗨 妈妈 - 你在这干嘛呢?
我只是 想你了
- 免费的来咯 - Lance!
- 这是干嘛呢? - 什么 没什么啊
- 这是你的想法么? - 不是
不 我绝不会-
好吧 事实上我想这么做的 但这不是我做的
我为什么没想到呢? 牌子上写着啤酒免费
我们想要我们的免费啤酒 对啊
J- E- T- S! Jets(球队)!
那边怎么了?
看啊! 多好的礼物啊!
我感觉像女王一样
伙计们 我们不是看球赛酒吧 不过我们请大家一人一瓶啤酒...
- 但就这么多了 - 免费啤酒!
你是Jets的球迷 对吧?
哦 天呐 搞错没啊! 我可是以West Side Story为生
- Pablo 发生什么了? - 我不清楚
嘿 这些是全新的炉子啊
- 披萨烤箱呢? - 试试看
好吧 我去找服务生
除了含羞草还有人需要别的么?
正常工作 一定是天然气管道 对吧?
香槟 白葡萄酒
怎么了? 不亮了么?
- 你在干嘛? - 对不起
妈妈! 我去找服务生
你坐在这享受你的午餐怎么样?
Pablo 继续找问题 我得去打个电话
服务生! 不好意思
我在River Bistro给你打电话
我们这有点问题 我需要人来帮忙解决
- 这不管用 - 我知道 那我们怎么做呢?
想想
你去拖延下
把它放在这
Lance 你用这种颜色点缀下会很好看的
不好意思 请原谅我这么做
我不清楚 我得去看看...
大家到前门去
地板湿了 注意安全 不要奔跑
不要惊慌 到前门去 不要惊慌
大家从前门出去
Holly在哪? Holly?
我们也许会有大麻烦 但那确实有效!
我发誓ClA (中情局) 应该聘用我们的
没人看见不该见的人
我指 我们很棒吧 不然呢?
你叔叔直接用钢笔做拼字游戏
啥?
而且他的厨房 真是很完美漂亮
怎样?
知道么 即使他没有大声说出来...
我看得出他知道 月亮不仅仅是块石头
你在说什么呢?
就超完美男人这件事来说
我明确知道谁适合我妈妈了
- 谁? - 你叔叔Ben.
什么?
但现在因为我愚蠢的计划 他们从没见面
我跟不上你的思路了
你是对的
我真不应该借用那兰花的
整件事就是个巨大的错误
嘿
我得请你帮我一个大忙
你也好啊
我需要你跟我妈分手
我什么时候开始和她在一起了?
不是你 是以超完美男人Ben的身份
没门
哎呀 拜托了
7点给她电话 用深沉的声音告诉她一切都结束了
我为什么这么做?
男人从来没有借口的 他们就会分手
你干嘛不通过邮件分手?
因为那样太冷血了
另外 我希望她能听到他的声音
是么 但那不是他(Ben)的声音
那会是我的声音 那些都跟他毫无关系
别啊 你知道我什么意思的 拜托了 Adam
如果我告诉她这一切都是假的 她会受挫的
而且她永远都不会原谅我
但如果是他把她甩了 那是她习惯的常事
你好?
- 我不能这么做的 - 我能问您是谁吗?
- Holly 我们可以谈谈么? - 当然
- 妈妈 你的电话 - 不 不 这一点也不好玩
- 你好啊 - 你好!
我是Ben
Ben? 是那个 "Ben"吗 Ben?
我不知道
- 你认识几个Ben? - 都不认识
不 我认识一个 我认识你
哇哦
中国怎么样啊?
中国
非常中国化
有很多中国人
中国食物
你很有趣
你正从...
世界的另一端给我打电话
是的 因为我有些事情 想告诉你...
最终能听到你的声音真是太好了
等等 你在哭么?
没有
天啊 是的
是的 我哭了 但这是因为我太高兴了
你让我感到开心
你知道我什么意思么?
大概吧
是的 我知道
天啊 我的生活...
我指 事情都是一团糟...
而我刚好开始认识了你 我也不清楚 我只是...
我只是开始觉得...
- 事情变得清晰 - 对!
- 对 你知道我什么意思 - 是的 我知道
就像你所经历的一切不好的事情...
你一直所痛恨的事情...
那些让你失望的人们...
那些没有照意愿发生的事情
突然间你会很感激他们因为这些事...
塑造了今天的你
是的 没错
我想这正是你... 你知道的...
我不知道
什么?
真的很喜欢一个人
那么 你喜欢我?
是的 是的
我喜欢你 我的意思是我甚至...
你甚至什么?
- 带我骑一圈 驾! - 不 现在不行 Zoe
我甚至可能会...
Holly!
爱你.
喂?
嘿!
你想什么呢?
你完全没有按照我的请求去做
我分心了
被什么分心? 前脑叶白质切除手术?
如果是那样的话 你告诉我有人来...
并且的确切除了你的脑子 我甚至不会...
是你
是你让我分心了
嘿 妈妈? 怎么了?
你还记得当我们刚到这时...
你那时感到很厌烦?
怎么了?
好吧 事情是这样的...
我只是很不希望看到你那样 而且...
你能闭嘴么?
不能
对不起
你干嘛...
安可(再来一首)! 太棒了! 真不错
嘿 放松点
嫁给我吧?
嫁给他!
哦 天呐 请告诉我 你没同意
请告诉我你拒绝了 我说了我会考虑一下
什么? 有什么好考虑的?
竟然还有首饰?
Lenny不是你的精深伴侣 Ben才是
Ben 在中国呢 也许吧
我的意思是 谁知道呢?
我唯一可以确信的是Ben是一个美丽的 愿望
但只有美丽的愿望的话 是不能成长的
你为什么那么绝望?
Oh Holly 你太武断了
你不用独自抚养孩子度日
没有人可以寻求帮助
我不是在抱怨 我整理床铺
但我始终是一个人孤独地在那 真的太久了
你们两就是在我身上发生的最好的事情了
一眨眼 你们长大了就要离开我了
而Lenny是个很贴心的人 也许他会不同于其他人
我不想孤独终老
等我回来 在开门
你好
你好 我找 Jean Hamilton 女士
你好 我是Jean
我是Ben的秘书 Ben正在回纽约的途中...
他很想跟您见面
真的么? 明天下午怎么样...
在布鲁克林大桥下?
非常好 4:00 他到时候和您碰面了
Ben在哪? 我得和他谈谈 是急事
哦 太晚了 年轻的女士 他已经离开了
- 去哪了? - 神圣的婚礼
婚礼? 什么婚礼?
- 好吧 Amber和... - Amber?
Amber?
我知道 他并不想真这么做...
对她说不很难
在哪?
Liberty Grand Hotel 谢谢
没有我的无聊聚会.
随便吧
不好意思 狗狗们
我们相聚于此在上帝的见证下...
在这个公司的面前...
一起参加这位女士和先生的...
如果有任何人发表...
知道这两个人为什么不应该在法律上结为夫妻的原因...
请现在就说出来要不就永远不要说
他们不能结婚!
你在干嘛?你不能到这来
他得和我妈妈结婚
你也许还不知道 但你得立马看看这些
Holly
这是一页页的能说明你们是精神伴侣的证据...
而且现在她正在布鲁克林大桥下等你
当你去的时候你就会发现 你们是多么的适合对方
你们都用钢笔做拼字游戏...
而且知道厨房应该是什么样的 知道月亮到底是什么
甚至在你们没见过的时候 你就选出了她最爱的歌曲
而这一切都让她比以前任何时候都要开心 而且...
你们知道么 伙计们?
我找的是Silverman的婚礼
对不起 请继续 我的错
David 对不起
儿子 你还好么?
Holly!
对不起 我弄错了 行么?
好吧 那绝对是本年度最大的错误
你想什么呢?
我以为是你和Amber结婚.
- 我? - Lance说...
不! Amber是我最好的朋友之一
我承办她的婚礼(做伴郎)
剩下的事情我都得帮忙了
- 你在干嘛? - 看看这些
- 不 这不是回答 - 是 这就是
只要你读读这些邮件 你就会明白.
有个人你得见见
- 嗨 妈妈 - 你在这干嘛?
我不想让你认为自己被欺骗了
- 他不来了 - 什么?
你怎么知道的? 你是怎么知道我在这的?
我知道 因为...
因为什么?
因为Ben是我编造的
什么?
那些花和信 还有邮件 和所有东西
电话呢? 我的一个朋友帮我打的
但不时一切都是编造的 有一位男士 有这样一位男士
大部分我写的东西来源于他
所以还有个男人也在嘲笑我?
不! 他不知情 他以为-
你怎么可以这么残忍?
我根本没想到会这样
我只是努力想让你高兴
好吧 你还有很多关于幸福的东西需要了解
但你没有给我指明方向 妈妈
哦 所以这是我的错了 我自己给自己造成如此的羞辱
为什么? 因为我们偶尔搬家么?
- 偶尔? - 随便吧 是很经常
你看起来从不介意
不 我介意 只是除了关于你自己的 你没有认真倾听我
不对 我听了 你跟我说的每一句话
你只是听见 却没有倾听
你从不倾听我想要什么
好吧 就算是 你想怎么样?
我想要一个跟我和Zoe每天看到的一样的妈妈
那个有天赋的 漂亮的 幽默的妈妈...
而且厨艺精湛舞技超群...
而且不需要男人来成为这样的人
好吧 所以也许完美男人不是真实的
但你是完美的
S- l- L- E- N- C- E(安静)
你好
对不起 我没给你回电话
- 我最近很忙 - 我给你画了东西
"Holly公主"
好吧 至少是她的一面
我意识到她不需要任何武器去保护她自己
你不让任何人亲近 这样别人就不会 主动伤害到你
等等 Holly!
我想要搬家 什么?
我讨厌这个地方
我已经受够了 我现在想搬家
我们已经为你搬了无数次家 我都数不过来了
而这一次 我想为我搬一次家
- 你好 - 你好 我是Adam Holly的朋友
她在家么?
没在 她在那边打包
为什么?
我们在搬家 去Arezona Red Rock
你想让她打给你么?
不用
谢谢
你能帮我把这个给她么?
当然
告诉她她只看了画的一面
我被鼓舞了
我想你
你为什么不找我?
简明新闻
每个人都吓坏了
没有理由逃开
这是我妈妈的做法
你想以你妈妈的方式结束告别么?
榜样的力量么
我有次听说...
爱是火热的友谊
这正是我对你的感觉
你真的一定要走么?
Holly 你想不到的? 我得参加拼字比赛
C- O- O- L.
你在干嘛? 拆包
恩 为什么?
我以为我们已经都同意 是时候 开始一段新探险了
这是我们的新探险 留下来就是我们的新探险
什么?
你们为什么就不能做点我想做的事?
我想一个人待会
没人想一个人待着 我想
行么 我已经受够这些人了我想结识别人
不幸的是, 亲爱的, 新人过一天就会 成为认识的人.
在那之后 他们就是他们而已
他们会让你兴奋 让你失望...
小小地吓到你
天呐 我知道当这些事情发生的时候 逃离他们是多有诱惑力的
回避这些事情有好处 但问题在于你最终会...
逃避自己
逃避你爱的人
你以逃避人生告终
所以 我决定开始给你和妹妹做个榜样
我将向你们展现什么是坚持
认真的认识人们
并且让人们了解我们
我不保证能做得多好 但我会尝试
因为我想让你和Zoe在这件事上做得比我更好
我希望你学会如何让别人进入你的生活
他是个很贴心的男孩 我觉得这么做很值得
翻过来 每件事都有两面
你想要一个更大的戒指么?
Combustible(拼字游戏)
C- O- M- B...
U- S- T...
l- B- L- E.
Combustible.
答对了
J!
E!
T!
S!
all: Jets! Jets! Jets!

女士们先生们 五分钟
五分钟 我们将在五分钟后开始评判
第一名 属于第73号选手 Jean Hamilton
你成功了 妈妈!
哪呢? 第二个吗?
是的 那就是我妈妈
你好 请问你需要什么?
恩 我听说在这可以找到...
世界上最好吃的乳糖核仁巧克力饼
我们在努力啦
我来吧
Ben 你好
免费的
不 不管怎样 我会付账的
一起用晚餐怎么样?
我根本都不了解你
好吧 我也不清楚
谢谢 真贴心
不过我可不这么认为
你在恋爱中吗? 事实上 没有
我人生中第一次那么久 没在恋爱
而且 我认为我应该保持下去...
直到我踏实地遇到某个人
我明白了 恩
- 这不是针对你的 - 不 这当然不是
你知道么 我也真的 应该带一个日程表
我推荐你这么做
是啊 清除衣柜 大概就是这些事
好主意
你知道 让我的思路清晰...
没错
那么 周六8点 我来接你?
很好
看起来妈妈说得对 留下来这件事会成为...
最伟大的冒险
而且我还要告诉你 为此我做了一些疯狂的事情
好比事前计划 粉刷我的墙壁 还有在墙上挂上壁画
我的意思是 我用过了钉子 还有很多东西
你好啊 请进来吧
不好意思 我迟到了
都怪这个 Krispy Kreme卡车在十八大道转弯
谢谢
恩 让我帮你戴上吧
好了...
放松点 怎么了? 你是第一次参加舞会?
你相信吗?
年轻的吉普赛 终于定居了
