看美劇學英文【法庭女王／ The Good Wife 】：第1季／第5集~第10集

■第1季第6集：冤獄案

African-American. Large. Mid-20s. In a Chicago Bulls sweatshirt.

We have fifty-five minutes to get this brief to the county clerk.

If we’re late, Clarence Wilcox stays on death row.

Oral arguments口頭辯論

This is odd.

Yeah. We can compete tomorrow.

Why didn’t Legal Aid pursue it?

Can you do it in 48 minutes?

You’re the faster typist.

Just submit  what you have…

Supposedly killed an off-duty cop in a grocery store.

If you don’t mind I’ll stay on the line and make sure you receive it.

WiFi’s low!

Didn’t anyone tell you?

I want you to have this. That’s the last time he held his daughter.

I’m not helping on this one. Not a cop-killer

I’m just trying to fit this into the fuller Cary picture.

Hey, there aren’t that many generations left. You’ve taken the greatest generation, the lost generation, the Pepsi generation; what do we have left? “The Surprise Generation.” So… surprise.

Look, the truth is, his wife came up to me yesterday. With his daughter. Really cute, you know.

What? It meant something to me.

Yeah, you think she has a car filled with them?

Hey, it worked. We’re on it.

Alicia nods– true– as they get on the elevator.

I’m kind of liking her more now.

What, do you hand these out like party favors?

Lawyers tend to forget he’s a person.

Look, I love my husband. He’s innocent. I know he’s innocent. And I would do anything for him. Anything.

What do you think?

I think we’re in trouble.

We went out to get a steak afterward, I don’t know, what do you wanna hear?

I thought you weren’t helping on this one.

You’re three months into a ten year sentence, and you’re plotting your political comeback.

Politics is just a game of chutes and ladders. I’m just starting over at square one.

What’d I do?

I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.

Whatever I want?

Can I ask a favor?

It’s not bad. I know we have some work to do. But I haven’t taken a

shower alone in months.

Yes, I’m sorry, go.

It’s like we’re at camp.

Want me to tell you a story?

I’m sorry. I don’t know what else to say. I’m just so sorry.

You don’t have room to insist. And you should be grateful. I’m giving your office an out as big as the great outdoors.

■第1季第7集：裁員VS摔倒賠償案

Every time we sell a piece of our soul, we buy glass.

Would you stop scaring yourself? 
Do you have a second?

Mr. and Mrs. Loeb, why don’t you give us a moment to talk. 

Throw personal questions into the middle of an intellectual argument. 

I’ve got two teenaged kids. 
I’ve got… a “to do” list you wouldn’t believe. 

This is a power play, pure and simple. 

Q：You could’ve fooled me.

A：I did fool you.

★第1季第8集  Unprepared

My dad always told me: if you’re ever granted a second act in life, don’t repeat the first one. 

I’m flawed. I’m human. And I’ve paid the price. That’s not a complaint; that’s just the truth.

I’ve looked at myself in the mirror, and I didn’t like what I saw, and I just want to change. 

Why’s she apologizing so much?

That’s who she is.

Watching her makes me nervous.

Where were you at the time of the fire?

I’m facing fifteen years in prison.

Things were going well for so long.

Who said that?
It was on-line. 

Ask you some very basic questions. 

What is your connection to this case?

You’re cross-examining. 

You can drop the cool thing. We’re not at school 
anymore.
What cool thing?
The– Look at you. The way you’re standing.
I’m just standing! What is your problem? 

We don’t know enough.
What do we need to know? 

I just want you to be prepared.

You are a cynic.

Do I look like I’m having fun?

How long were you at the concert?

★第一季第九集 Threesome

I feel like I’ve turned some kind of corner. 

You’re really happy this morning.

Something is going on here?

I usually don’t ask this: but how much is 
true?
From what I can tell: Not much.

Why don’t you ask him. 

This is her husband. Have her phone me as quickly as possible. 

Did he say what it was about?

I’d phone Peter’s house, hang up after one ring, then he’d know the next call was from me…

That’s like something a 14-year-old would do? 

what am I doing here?

I’ll bill you for an hour.

You’re like an eighteen-year-old.

I want her to represent me.

No one’s saying anything.

I want you to know what’s true and what’s not.

I’ll tell you exactly what to say. 

I still cried into my pillow at night.

What’s he doing down here?

It’s important for me to show you what I can do.

We’ll reconvene after lunch.

It’s insane.

She’s a girl who’s a friend.

It was a family business.

What I live for.

As your client, I’m ordering you to not breathe a word of this. 

★第一季第十集 Lifeguard

I just gave you an extra year on probation.

Go and sin no more.

Where’s your counsel, young man?

He scared me and I threw my book at him.

Maybe I should phone your mother.

I think you’d be crazy not to.
These chances don’t come along every day. 

Just promise me you won’t clean house. 

Who says I have nothing better to do?

I know how much you hate praise.

I have a feeling we’re coming to a very significant “but.”

We want you to be a judge.

I hope I’m a lifeguard.

You’ll have to divest , of course.

That’s how I became Chief Justice.

Can I take a few days?

You can take a week. You’ve done well, Diane. 

What else do you have?

It’s nice to get a compliment from someone who rarely does.

 I don’t think I need to take any lessons from you, ma’am.

That is not what I was doing.

How long’s she been at your firm? 

Could you make an exception? 

Wanna go sit in the car?

They do things for one reason.
What reason? Come on, Yoda. What reason?
KALINDA
Sex. Money. Hatred. Love. 
You want to make people mysterious. People aren’t mysterious. 

You and I have nothing in common. 
You and I come from different worlds. It’s not just Mars and Venus. It’s spaghetti and hydrogen. We’re different categories. I’m knowable. But not to you. 

I just want things to be normal.

That’s what I like about you.

I was going to talk to you about it. 

Single parent homes. Two parent homes.

Always liked that about you.
