    SCENE③ C 吉娜去她老板的隔間看他
    【你真是心狠手辣】
    Zina: No, Vince, not next week. Now. You need to 1) guarantee me 5 percent.
    吉娜: 不,文斯,下星期不成。我要你現(xiàn)在就保證我能拿百分之五。
    Vince: But you just said 4 percent!
    文斯: 但你才剛說過百分之四的!
    Zina: If the next word out of your mouth isn't "Yes" it's going up to 6 percent.
    吉娜: 若是下一個從你嘴中冒出來的字不是“好”,就會漲到百分之六了。
    Vince: Yes! OK, yes. Stop it! You are just 2) ruthless.
    文斯: 好!好就好吧。別再來了。你真是心狠手辣。
    Zina: That's why you love me. One other thing. Did you leave me a note this morning on a green post-it?
    吉娜: 所以你才愛我啊。還有件事。你今天有留張綠色便利貼在我桌上嗎?

    Zina: 3) Never mind. I'm looking for somebody who uses green.
    吉娜: 別放在心上。我在找用綠色的人。
