影视英语口语:政治丑闻

【英雄】第1季第1集 Part 4

NATHAN: For God's sakes, Ma
PETER: Are you okay?
ANGELA: They dropped the charges. I have to fill out a form. No big deal
NATHAN: No big deal? I'm running for Congress. Do you have any idea what this is gonna do to me if it gets out, with our family's past? What could you possibly need so bad that you had to steal it?
NATHAN: Never mind. I don't wanna know.
ANGELA: Socks.
NATHAN: Socks. Dad left you a fortune. What are you thinking? You know, it's been one ridiculous stunt after another with you for the last six months.
NATHAN: Dad's gone. Just get over it.
PETER: You know what? Leave her alone. She's okay. That's all that matters.
NATHAN: I gotta get this out of the press.
PETER: You know what? Just get out of here. Go worry about your image. I'll handle this.
NATHAN: Yeah. Good. I gotta make sure this stays buried. Thanks a lot, Mom.
ANGELA: Mm-hmm.
PETER: What were you thinking?
ANGELA: I just wanted to feel alive again.
PETER: Nathan only cares about himself.
ANGELA: Your father was the same way. Alpha dogs, both of them.
ANGELA: You, in the meantime, for all your selflessness sitting with dying people ... What? You gonna retire on what you make?
PETER: Maybe I'll shoplift my socks.
ANGELA: Don't get smart. When you put everyone else first, you end up last. You always put Nathan first. He took advantage.
PETER: Yeah, it wasn't you that was just pushing him right out in front of me?
ANGELA: He takes up more space than you. Demanded more attention. And besides, it's not my fault you allowed it.
PETER: He's my brother. I love him.
ANGELA: Oh, gah. Love is overrated.
PETER: And he loves me too. I know it. We've always been close.
ANGELA:Rose-colored glasses.
PETER: That's cruel, Mom. Look, since Dad died, I know you've been feeling free to speak your mind. But it wouldn't hurt to edit yourself every once in a while.
ANGELA: I'm sorry if the truth hurts. I'm just saying you hero-worshipped him. And those feelings were never returned.
PETER: You're wrong. It's biological, and I can't help it. We're ... we're connected.
