Forrest Gump 13 Carla: Danny, what are you waving about? Lenora: Who’s your friend? Gump: My name’s Forrest. Forrest Gump. Dan: This is cunning Carla and Long-Limbs Lenora. Lenora: Where you been baby cakes? Huh? I haven’t seen you around lately. You know you should have been here for Christmas because Tommy bought a round on the house and gave everybody a turkey sandwich. Dan: Well, well. I had company. Lenora: Hey, hey! We was just there. That’s Times Square. Carla: Don’t you just love New Years? You can start all over. Everybody gets a second chance. Forrest: It’s funny. But in the middle of all that fun, I began to think about Jenny, wondering how she was spending her New Years in California.(later) Happy New Year, Lieutenemt Dan. (In Dan’s hotel) Carla: What? Are you stupid or something? What’s your problem? What’s his problem? Did you lose your pecker* in the war or something? Lenora: What? Is your friend stupid or something? Dan: What did you say? Lenora: I said “Is your friend stupid or something?” Dan: Don’t call him stupid. Carla: Don’t push her. Dan: You shut up. Don’t you ever call him stupid. Get the hell out of here. Lenora: You should be in a sideshow*! You retard*! Carla: You loser. You freak. Gump: I’m sorry I ruined your New Year Eve party Lieutenant Dan. She tastes like cigarettes. Forrest: I guess Lieutenant Dan figured there were some things you just can’t change. He didn’t want to be called crippled just like I didn’t want to be called stupid. Dan: Happy New Year, Gump. Newsman: The US Ping-pong Team met with President Nixon today at a ... Forrest: And wouldn’t you know it, a few months later, they invited me and the Ping-pong team to visit the White House, so I went, again. And I met the President of the United States, again. Only this time they didn’t get us rooms in real fancy* hotels. Nixon: So are you enjoying yourself in our nation’s capital, young man? Gump: Yes, sir. Nixon: Well, where are you staying? Gump: It’s called the Hotel Ebot. Nixon: No, no, no. I know a much nicer hotel, It’s brand new*, very modern. I’ll have my people take care of it for you. (that night) Man on telephone: Security*, Frank Wells. Gump: Yes, sir. You might want to send a maintenance* man over to that office across the way. The lights are off and they must be looking for a fuse box or something ‘cause them flashlights, they’re keeping me awake... Thank you.Good night. (later) Nixon: Therefore, I shall resign* the presidency effective at noon tomorrow. Vice President Ford will be sworn in as President at that hour in this office... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * pecker: (鄙俗语)阴茎 * sideshow: 马戏、杂技的穿插表演 * retard: 弱智 * fancy: 豪华的 * brand new: 崭新的 * security: 安全,保卫 * maintenance: 维护 * resign: 辞职 |
