Seth: Why does Taiwan have so many damned scam artists?
    Ash: Between elderly pensioners and the young and naive like us, there's a huge market!
    Seth: But what can be done to stop it?
    Ash: Maybe stiffer penalties for the criminals? Who knows? I'm sure better education would help.
    Seth: What kind of class can help with this kind of thing? I thought I won one million dollars last week. If Milt didn't stop me, I would probably be out of every cent I've ever made.
    (續(xù)上期,下期續(xù))
    賽司:為什么臺灣有這么多可惡的騙徒?
    愛許:從領(lǐng)養(yǎng)老金的老人到像我們一樣年輕又好騙的人,這個市場很大啊!
    賽司:但是要如何阻止這類事情發(fā)生呢?
    愛許:也許該加重罪犯的刑罰吧?誰知道?我相信更好的教育會有幫助。
    賽司:什么課會對這類事件有幫助?上星期我以為我贏了一百萬。如果米特沒有阻止我,我可能會賠上所賺的每一分錢。
