Willie Ray Johnson: He has a job, too! And it must be serious, because you're introducing us.

第二次父母前來拜訪,卻剛好趕上Brenda卷入一起槍擊
Willie Ray Johnson: Would someone mind telling me what's going on? Roy?
有人能告訴我怎么回事嗎?Roy?
Roy: I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm not at liberty to say.

Willie Ray Johnson: Of course. Just not all the details.
當然,就是不清楚細節(jié)。(繼續(xù)裝....)
Roy: Well, ma'am, your daughter and sergeant Gabriel weren't hit. One of the passengers was killed. The other one's gonna make it.
夫人,你女兒和Gabriel警佐都沒有中槍,車上一名乘客死亡,另外一人受了傷沒有生命危險。(老老實實自己全招了....)
案子解決后一家人一起用餐,Brenda也打算公布她的重大決定
Willie Ray Johnson: And your father is interesting in visiting that aircraft carrier at the maritime museum in San Diego. That seemed a bit of ...
你父親非常有興趣去圣地亞哥的海事博物館看那個航空母艦,那有點...

Willie Ray Johnson: I knew it!
我就知道?。?br />
Roy: Nice.Good for you.
好啊,有你的。
Brenda Leigh Johnson: How did you know?
你怎么知道的?
Willie Ray Johnson: A mother knows these things. And besides, your hand kept reaching over to feel your ring fingeras if something was missing.
做母親的當然知道,而且你的手一直伸過去摸無名指,顯然是因為缺了什么東西。(不得不說大姐誘供和一流觀察力深得母親真?zhèn)靼?...)
