《绝望的主妇》精讲128

加比：我是随便说的，我爸爸很好。我很小的时候，他就去世了。

心理师：那一定很痛苦吧？没有男性家长的童年。

Psychiatrist¹: Did your father not love you?

Gaby: I was joking. My dad was great. He died when I was a kid.

Psychiatrist: Well,that must have been hard...Growing up without a malepresence?

Gaby: No. She remarried. Oh,my god. I forgot to tell you the best part of the jagger story. He read my palm. And he told me I would be going below deck to have sex with him. Not only is he a great singer,he's an amazingpsychic.

Psychiatrist: Gaby,why don't you like talking about your childhood?

Gaby: What's the point? The past is the past.

Psychiatrist: Well,sometimes what happens to us in the past affects who we are today.

Gaby: Oh,by the way,jagger. Bigcuddler.

Psychiatrist: Gaby,come on. We're gonna have to go deeper here.

Gaby: Well,that's the thing about me-there is no deeper. Ask any of my friends. I'm the shallowest person they know. I'm just skin,a little blood, and stories about keith richards drinking out of my shoes.

Psychiatrist: You don't have to be afraid. Let's talk about your childhood.

心理师：你爸爸不爱你吗？

加比：我是随便说的，我爸爸很好。我很小的时候，他就去世了。

心理师：那一定很痛苦吧？没有男性家长的童年。

加比：没啦，我妈妈再婚了。哎呀呀，我都忘记告诉你，我跟Jagger的高潮部分了。他给我看手相，然后告诉我，我会去船舱里跟他翻云覆雨。他不仅唱歌好，还会通灵呢！

心理师：加比，还是来讲讲你的童年吧！

加比：为什么呢？过去的就让他过去了。

心理师：但有时候，正是过去的事，造就了今天的我们。

加比：跟你说哦，Jagger好体贴的。

心理师：加比，我们还是要详谈一下。

加比：我就是这样，没必要再详谈了，你去问问我的朋友就知道了，我是他们认识的最不藏事的人了，我就是个空皮囊而已。但有一段跟Keith Richards的风流韵事。

心理师：你不用害怕，还是谈谈你的童年吧！
