【跟着美剧练发音】Gossip Girl13

P:With all these investments from the party, we should have everything we need by the end of the month.

You know I thought we were screwed when Chuck Bass¹ called me, 

but you found a way to make it work, and when you chose being poor and being with Serena...

G:She left me a message.

P:She's awfully² needy³, isn't she?

S:Hey, Gabriel. It's me. Listen I'm coming back to your hotel. We have to talk. Don't go anywhere. I'll see you soon.

P:She sounds nervous.

G:Yeah, she does. 

P:Well, why would she be? Did something happen?

G:No, it's more like something that didn't happen -- you doing your research properly. 

She told me this morning that Butter was closed the night that I allegedly met her there.

And what the hell is Butter?

P:We gotta get out of here, fast.
