摩登家庭第六季 第109期:我又搞了匹草泥马回家

 uh, I spoke¹ too soon. 我挺走运的。这家伙不喜欢吐口水。我话说太早了。

You think? That's it. Pull over. You know, Phil, I wanted to support you on this. 你这样觉得吗？真是够了，快停车。菲尔，我也想支持你的。

I'm a firm believer in livestock² in the home, but you are out of control. 我坚决支持在家里养牲畜，但你实在是太失控了。

No, I'm in control - more than ever. 不，一切完全在我掌控之中。

And if me getting what I want inconveniences people a little, then so be it. 如果我为了让自己称心如意而给别人稍微带来了一点点麻烦，随便吧。

Uh, she's nervous. The guy said you should let her suck³ on your hair. 它紧张了。饲养员说你该让它舔你的头发。

Okay, that is it. I am done. Enough of this ridiculousness⁴. 好了，够了，我不干了。一切的荒唐到此为止。

And thank you, Phil, for making me appreciate Mitchell. He may have his faults, but at least he's not a crazy person. 谢你了啊，菲尔，因为你让我意识到了米奇尔的好。他或许是有一些缺点，但至少他不是个疯子。

Phil, honey. 菲尔，亲爱的。

Yes, Claire. I got an alpaca - again. And there's nothing you can say about it. 在呢，克莱尔。我又搞了匹草泥马回家。你不能发表任何不满的意见。

I'm not saying anything. What's the problem? 我不会发表任何意见的。有什么问题啊？

Mom, dad! There is a camel in the living room! 妈，爸！客厅里有头骆驼！

It's not a c-- 那不是骆...

I-I just can't. Okay. 我做不到。好了。

I see you've all met Jolene two. Sadly, the original Jolene that your mother made me return was cruelly adopted by a children's hospital. 看来你们都见过乔琳2号了吧。不幸的是你妈强迫我退回去的那头，乔琳被一家儿童医院残忍地收养了。

You see, something hit me this morning when that truck didn't hit me this morning -- 今早那辆卡车没有把我撞死，但却把我的脑子撞开了窍...

I have not been in control of my own life. But those days are done. 我一直都没有真正掌控自己的人生。但那种日子到此为止了。
