Gill: You bet it is. And we got four thousand for our car space! Awesome!
Beth: Let's play some music! I feel like dancing.
Gill: That's just what was running through my mind. Moonlight and dancing.
Beth: [Puts on the music] Ahh! Now that's more like it. Atmosphere!
Gill: Come on baby, let's dance! [Doorbell rings]
Beth: [Looks through the peephole] Oops! It's the landlord. I guess the tables have turned now. We're the noisy neighbors. Turn it down!

参考译文:

吉尔：一点也没错。而且我们的车位以四千元租出去了！太棒了！
贝丝：来放点音乐吧！我想跳舞。
吉尔：我刚刚正好有这想法。在月光下跳舞。
贝丝：（放音乐）啊！这才象话嘛。气氛！
吉尔：来吧，宝贝，我们来跳舞！（门铃响起）
贝丝：（从门孔看出去）糟糕！是房东。我想风水轮流转了。我们变成吵闹的邻居了。关音乐！
