And he pees like a civil rights fire hose.

他尿起尿来跟镇暴水柱一样威猛

Max, step further back.

得了，咱们就打开天窗说亮话吧

Let's not get personal, we all want this to work.

别搞人身攻击，这生意还得谈呢

Wow, show business is rough.

看来娱乐界不好混呀

All right, it's Tony, right?

好了，你是汤尼，对吧

Last time I checked.

没记错的话，是的

All right, Tony, you'll have to forgive her.

汤尼，你必须得原谅她

She really loves him and wants this to work out.

Bottom line is, even a free horse isn't free.

重点是，天下没有免费的马

I still have to feed him and take care of him and truth be told, this horse isn't gonna make me a penny.

养他要钱，照顾费神。而老实说，这匹马给我赚不来一个子儿

If my film guy comes in here, he's gonna pick that beauty over this one.

电影合作商过来，肯定也是选那匹靓马而不是这匹

So it's not gonna work out, girls.

所以这事谈不成，姑娘们

All right, well, we got other offers, fatty.

好吧，你不要还有别人要呢，死胖子

Come on, let's go.

来，咱们走

You know, maybe next time before you let someone ride five Miles across Brooklyn in a toxic⁶, Russian,

下次你害人穿着借来的有毒又带廉价古龙水味的皮毛大衣

cologne-soaked rent-a-fur,

骑了五英里穿过布鲁克林时

you should be clear that the film business, even for horses, is ageist and elitist.

你应该搞搞清楚，电影业，即使选马，也偏爱有年纪跟精英血统的

And, yes, we may have seen better days,

没错，我们的确是走下坡的老将

but with hard work, determination and a little luck, one day we'll be back on top.

但只要努力与决心和一点点运气，谁说老将就不能再上巅峰

Yeah, and I'm not impressed by your big star pony⁷ overthere.

对了，你的大明星马根本就无聊到爆

He's just standing⁸ still.

只会傻站着一动不动

You wanna impress me?

要想打动我的心
