Lynette: So, he just blew you off?

Susan: I told him another man asked me out. It was the perfect opportunity for Mike to feel jealous, and nothing.

Lynette: Did you bat your eyes? You know, it doesn't work if you don't bat your eyes.

Susan: Honey, I batted everything that wasn't nailed down. I'm telling you, nothing.

Lynette: Oh, thanks.

Susan: So what's going on there?

Lynette: Mm. Gophers.

Susan: Wow.

Lynette: Listen, I'm sorry about Mike. I know how much you like him.

Susan: Ah, maybe it's my fault. Maybe I just imagined an entire relationship with this man that didn't exist.

Lynette: There has been flirting. I have seen it.

Susan: Yeah, and the flirting made me think that he was kind and trustworthy and honest and hygienic. That's how it is with me -- a guy just smiles at me three times, and I'm picking out wedding china. I'm a mess.

Lynette: But to be fair, that's part of your charm.

Susan: That's what happened with Karl. I only dated him a couple of months, I filled in the blanks, I married him. It was a disaster.

Lynette: You think Mike is a Karl in disguise?

Susan: I don't know. What does that mean, anyway, 'my life is complicated'?

Man: If I wanted to sit around and wait for nothing, I could do it on the can. You're late. What's with the face?

Mike: I screwed up. I broke into the Frome house and almost got caught.

Man: What's almost?

Mike: I accidentally left something behind with my prints on it.

Man: Did you ever hear of gloves?

Mike: It's the suburbs. I didn't think it'd matter. Anyway, the police are running a check, and I'm in the system. I got to pull up stakes before they come looking for me.

Man: That's a sweet sound -- laughter like that, huh? Pisses me off. If and when your cover is blown, you disappear. Until then, you keep fixing the neighbors' pipes.

Mike: But the more time I spend in this town, the more I think we're making a mistake. They are nice people.

Man: My money says one of 'em isn't.

Man: Whoa.

Boy: Thanks.

Man: No more screw-ups.

Mama Solis: Gabrielle, please. You bought me enough things. You're the one that's supposed to be shopping.

Gabrielle: Oh, mama, you're in a rut. We need to spice up your wardrobe. Ooh, here. Try this one on. Go on, try it on. Mama Solis, how you doing in there?

Mama Solis: Is it supposed to be so tight?

Gabrielle: Yes, it's form-fitting. You're going to look great.

Mama Solis: Gabrielle, I don't think this dress is right for me. I can't breathe.

Gabrielle: Well, maybe I made a mistake. While you change, I'm to make a quick run to the bookstore.

Mama Solis: Gabrielle, wait, wait. I'm coming with you.

Gabrielle: No, no, no. I'll just be a minute.

Mama Solis: Wait, wait, Gabrielle, I'm coming with you -- ay! Wait! Gabrielle, wait!

Woman: Ma'am? Ma'am, sorry. I need to look in your bags, please.

Mama Solis: Fine. Just hurry up.

John: Right on time.

Mama Solis: I'm telling you, I don't know where that blouse came from.

Woman: Security!

Mama Solis: All right, keep your stupid blouse. I'm going to have to find my daughter-in-law. Don't touch me. Don't you dare touch me!

Security: Ma'am, you're going to have to come with us.

Mama Solis: Get your hands off me! Gabrielle!

妙语佳句，活学活用

1. Blow off

“不在乎，轻视”，这里的意思是“他一点也没把你的话放在心上？”我们来看个例子：If you blow off your homework, you're bound to run into trouble on the exam. 如果你不重视作业的话，考试肯定会有麻烦的。

2. Bat one's eyes

To bat one's eyes means to blink one's eyes in a flirtatious way，和“抛媚眼”差不多。比如：Look at that chick. She's batting her eyes at us. 看那个小妞。她正朝我们抛媚眼呢。

3. A Karl in disguise

In disguise 的意思是“乔装的，伪装的，化妆的”。A Karl in disguise从字面上看来是“乔装的卡尔”，实际的意思是说“另一个卡尔（和卡尔同样的人）”。比如：I don't like your boyfriend. I think he's a John in disguise. (John is your ex-boyfriend.)我不喜欢你的男朋友，他不过是另一个约翰罢了。

4. Screw up

在俚语中“弄糟，搞砸”的意思。比如：The engineers screwed up the entire construction plan. 工程师们把整个施工计划搞砸了。
Screw和up 和在一起就成了名词screw-up，意思也是“弄糟，搞砸”。

5. Piss off

有两个意思，一个是to make or become angry，比如：That letter pissed me off. 那封信把我气坏了。另一个是to go away / leave，比如：Piss off and stop bothering me. 走开，别再烦我。

6. In a rut

“照惯例，照老规矩，墨守成规”。Mama Solis认为自己年纪大了，身材走形了，不应该再花那么多金钱和时间在买衣服上了，这也是很多上年纪的女人的想法。Gabrielle 则告诉她“不要抱着这种传统的想法”。我们来看个例子：We go to the seashore every summer-we're in a rut. 每年夏天我们都去海边，这已成为惯例。

7. Spice up

To spice up means to make it more appealing or sexy。“辣妹”的英文就是Spice Girls，两相对照联想，你应该会明白是什么意思了吧。比如：Want to spice up a golf game？Add tasty tees. 想为高尔夫球比赛增添趣味？来点别致的球座吧。

8. Form-fitting

“贴身的，紧身的”。比如“紧身衣服”：a form-fitting cloth。
