Don't worry. We're not gonna eat this. We're gonna eat steak. 别担心，我们不会吃这个的。我们吃牛排。

He told me the reason why he wants me to be an American. 他告诉了我他希望我成为美国人的原因。

What? 什么

That son of a bitch wants me to turn my back on my homeland for an airport line? 那个王八蛋想要我背叛我的祖国就为了在机场不排队？

You know, I should at least make an appearance⁴ at Billy's. 我至少得去比利家露个脸。

Sanjay. What are you doing here? What are those? 桑杰，你来这里干什么？那是什么？

Ankle⁵ weights. Okay. Wrist⁶ weights. 踝部负重袋。其实是腕部负重袋。

Why are you here? 你来干什么？

Look, uh, tomorrow, it's all gonna be over, everything we've been working for since we started school. 听着，明天一切就要结束了，入学以来我们为之努力的一切都要结束了。

So, I-I wanted to come by and say thanks. 所以，我想来谢谢你。

I'm not a doctor yet, but it seems like you're having some sort of brain episode⁷. 我还不是个医生，但我能看出你的脑子好像有点问题。

No, I'm serious. Thank you for pushing me. You know how hard it's been to keep up with you my whole life? 不，我是认真的，谢谢你一直激励我。你知道一生都追赶你有多难吗？

Uh, I have my GPA because of you. I got into Stanford because of you. 多亏了你我才能得到这个绩点。多亏了你我才能被斯坦福录取。

I'll admit I did spend about a few hundred extra hours trying to be better than you. 我得承认我为了超过你确实多花了几百个小时。
