我非常希望演你書中堅強的女角色 I'd die to play one of your strong-willed female characters.
你的靈感從何而來? Where do you draw your inspiration from?
你覺得呢? Where do you think?
真浪漫 娶了你的繆思女神 Oh, how romantic, to marry your muse.
取代她就不浪漫 Not so romantic to replace her.
何不告訴她實話 查爾斯 Why don't you tell her the truth, Charles,
說你是重婚主義者 that you're an astral bigamist?
住口 不要表現得像個蕩婦一樣 Be quiet. Stop behaving like a harlot.
你說什麼? I beg your pardon?
承認吧 所有女角色都是以我為藍圖 Admit it, Charles. All of your female characters are based on me.
你總是愛慕虛榮又自戀 You always were vain and self-obsessed.
你竟敢這樣跟我的女主角說話? How dare you speak to my leading lady like that?
不... No, no no.
節制一點 查爾斯 到底在搞什麼? Get a grip, Charles. What on earth is going on?
艾薇拉在這裏 Elvira is here.
我可以看見她 I can see her.
她在這裏 She's right there.
你給我馬上回家躺下休息 I insist you go home immediately and lie down.
大白天的我不想睡覺 I have no desire to go to bed in the middle of the afternoon.
哇 你變得真多 My, how things have changed.
我記得以前我們倆 I remember a time when we could barely
根本離不開那張雙人床 drag ourselves out of our double divan.
不要這麼不檢點 離開我的視線 Stop being indecent. Get out of my sight.
你竟敢這樣跟我的女兒說話? How dare you speak to my daughter like that!
不 我不是在跟她說話 -滾出我這裏 No, I wasn't speaking to her. Get off my set.
你麻煩大囉 -不要這麼幼稚 You're in trouble now. Don't be so infantile.
我幼稚給你看 I'll give you infantile.
哦 Ooh!
哦 Ooh.
哦 Oww!
啊 Ah.
會痛嗎? Does it hurt?
會呼吸的痛 Only if I breathe.
讓我看看 親愛的 Let me see it, darling.
這樣呢? What about now?
天啊! Oh, God!
你去書房吧 I suggest you take yourself to your study.
唯一讓爸爸原諒你的辦法 The only way my father will forgive you
就是交出奧斯卡等級的劇本 is if you deliver an Oscar-worthy script.
這種狀態下我要怎麼寫作? How am I supposed to write in this state?
你最好嘗試看看 Well you better try.
開始寫作 證明自己不是瘋了 Either start typing and prove you're not barking mad,
不然我就必須打給布拉得曼醫師 or I'll be forced to call Dr. Bradman
把你轉給精神科專家 and have you referred to a nerve specialist.
露絲 我一點都沒發瘋 Ruth, I'm not in the least neurotic.
從來沒有 And never have been.
那去看心理分析 Well, psychoanalyst, then.
我拒絕去接受數個月的昂貴羞辱 I refuse to endure months of expensive humiliation,
最後只會告訴我 only to be told at the end of it
病因是我小時候愛上的搖搖馬 that at the age of four I was in love with my rocking horse.
不准用那種語氣對我 查爾斯康德明 Don't take that flippant tone with me, Charles Condomine.
我不是有幻覺的那位 I'm not the one who started seeing things.
所以你相信我? -當然不 Ah, so you do believe me then? Of course I don't.
鬼魂才不是真的 There's no such thing as ghosts or ghouls.
我要呼喚唐納奇令 I call upon Donald Keeling,
第二中尉 Second Lieutenant
戈登高地第92軍團 in the 92nd Regiment of Gordon Highlanders.
於1881年2月27日 Who died on February the 27th, 1881,
在馬朱巴山戰役中喪命 at the Battle of Majuba Hill.
請前來 出現在我面前 Come forth and make yourself known to me.
賽西莉 你忠誠的妻子 Cecily, your ever devoted wife.
唐納 Donald...
是你嗎? Is that you?
客房服務 您需要新毛巾嗎? It's housekeeping. Do you need fresh towels?
你在這裏做什麼? What are you doing here?
就算把我的一切都移除 Despite removing every trace of me,
這依然是我家 this is still my home.
而且 我也不知道該怎麼回去 Besides, I have no idea how to get back even if I wanted to.
所以你要無限期的待在這裏? Are you saying you're staying indefinitely?
怎樣?如果是呢 你會很不開心嗎? Why? Would you hate it so much if I did?
老實說 查爾斯 我還滿受傷的 Honestly, Charles, I really am a little hurt.
你是唯一有能力招喚我的人 You're the only one who could have called me back.
我真的沒有招喚你 艾薇拉 I most emphatically did not send for you, Elvira.
露絲跟我準備要歡度 Ruth and I are about to celebrate
五週年結婚紀念日 our fifth wedding anniversary together.
五年?那要送什麼 皮件? Five? What is that, leather?
木製品 Wood.
小心不要刺到手 Watch out for the splinters.
康德明夫人 Mrs. Condomine.
我打給布拉得曼醫師 I'll call Dr. Bradman, see
看他願不願意陪我們去精神病院 if he'll accompany us to the sanitarium.
露絲 拜託 聽我說 我沒有瘋 Ruth, please, listen to me. I haven't gone mad.
我前妻艾薇拉的魂魄 The ghost of my first wife, Elvira
從另一個世界來到這裏 has crossed over from the other side and is here
現在在這間房裏 in the room with us right now.
是的 親愛的 我知道 我也看到她 Yes, dear. I know. I see her perfectly well,
還有躲在鋼琴下的斑馬跟猩猩們 along with the zebras and chimpanzees hiding under the piano.
露絲 我一直尊敬你是善解人意 Ruth, I have always looked upon you as a woman
又有智慧的女人 of perception and understanding.
我是 但如果你說沒喝酒 I am, but if you say you're not drinking,
那你的腦子肯定有出問題 there must be something pressing on your brain.
艾薇拉 做點什麼證明你在這 拜託 Elvira, do something to reveal that you really are here, please.
她要送我去精神病院 She's going to have me committed.
你記得第一次聽到我們的主題曲嗎? Do you remember when we first heard our song, Charles?
我會一直愛你 永遠 # I'll be loving you Always, Oooh #
你看?我就跟你說? See? What did I tell you?
這是惡劣的玩笑 查爾斯 It's a cruel trick, Charles,
用什麼催眠術想嚇我 using some sort of auto suggestion or hypnotism to scare me.
不是 我發誓 我沒有 親愛的 It isn't. I swear it isn't. Darling.
親愛的 Darling.
艾薇拉 做點其他事拜託 Elvira, do something else, for God sake.
好啊 Oh, anything to oblige.
你看 Look.
天啊 Lord.
啊 Ahh!
再見 小三 Adios, interloper.
哎呀 Oops.
揭發詐欺靈媒
必須請你離開這房間 I'm afraid we need the room back.
我說過了 一小時內會收好行李離開 I told you I'll be packed and ready to go within an hour.
好險你還沒走 Ah, thank God I caught you.
你是我唯一的希望 可怕的事發生了 You are my only hope. Something terrible has taken place.
晚上聽到怪聲音? You heard strange noises in the night?
地板吱吱作響?門自己關上? Boards creaking? Doors slamming?
走廊上聽到微弱的呻吟? A subdued moaning in the passages?
不 都不是 Eh, no, none of those.
但發生在顯靈會之後 Oh. But, it appears that after the seance
我丈夫的第一任妻子 my husband's first wife, Elvira,
七年前去世的艾薇拉 回來了 who died seven years ago, is back among us.
終於 At last.
真實的顯靈 A genuine materialization.
我就知道那天發生了驚人之事 I knew something stupendous had happened to me that night.
我的脊椎有感覺到 I felt it in my spinal cortex.
經過這麼多年虔誠的靈修 Oh, after all these years of, of spiritual devotion,
我終於得到獎賞 I've finally been rewarded.
我欣賞你對自己成就的驕傲 I appreciate the pride in your achievement,
但重點是 but I would like to point out it's making
這情況讓我在家中站不住腳 my position in my home untenable,
你必須負起責任 and I hold you entirely responsible.
很抱歉 康德明夫人 我真自私 Oh, forgive me, Mrs. Condomine. I'm being abominably selfish.
讓我搞清楚一點 Just to help me get this clear in my mind,
你沒看到這個顯靈? y-you yourself have not seen this manifestation?
沒有 但查爾斯宣稱看到 No, but Charles claims he can see
且能與之對談 and talk to her.
如果情感連結強烈 那是可能發生的 Well, if the emotional connection is strong, that is sometimes possible.
什麼? What?
有時候會發展到第十級 It can sometimes develop into a level ten,
我連做夢都想不到的 something I've never even dared dream of.
他能...碰到她嗎? Can he, by any chance, touch her?
我真不希望那會發生 I sincerely hope not.
為什麼?那能發生? Why? Can that happen?
如果回到陽間的魂魄感到被接受 Well. if the returning spirit feels welcome... it can
靈體會變得有質量 gradually become physically... substantial.
謝謝 布拉德曼太太 Thank you, Mrs. Bradman.
聽到她消息請告訴我 Well, please do let me know if you hear from her.
她也不在那裏 She's not there either.
我記得你等不及跟我共處一整個下午 I remember when you couldn't wait to spend an afternoon alone with me.
請不要玩弄我的感情 Please refrain from playing with my affections.
我已經感覺很怪異了 I feel strange enough.
所以你還是覺得我很迷人? So you do still find me attractive?
艾薇拉 拜託 Elvira, please.
這舉止很不恰當 This isn't appropriate.
看著我的眼睛 Look into my eyes.
告訴我你已經不愛我了 And tell me you don't love me anymore.
我永遠會愛有你的回憶 I shall always love the memory of you.
回憶是關於過去 查爾斯 Memories are about the past, Charles.
但我在這裏 這個當下 But I'm here. And this is the present.
我們何不上船去透透氣 Why don't we take the boat out like we used to
像以前一樣? and get some air?
我不能 我有截稿日期 I can't. I'm on a deadline.
你在寫什麼?支票? What are you writing? Checks?
我跟你說 我受委託 I'll have you know I've been commissioned
把我第一本小說改編成劇本 to adapt my first novel for the screen.
第一本小說? Your first novel?
為了寫這故事我差點寫到指頭斷掉 Nearly wore my fingers to the bone committing this story to the page.
承認吧 親愛的 Let's face it, darling.
在我死後你再也沒出版作品 It's not a coincidence that you haven't published
絕對不是巧合 a word since my demise.
我不否認 你的確有發現情節的才能 I won't deny, you did have a certain flair for plot.
嗯哼 Mm-hmm.
還有角色 -還有...? And character. And?
還有對白 -沒錯 And dialogue. Right.
最大的問題是第三幕之前的轉變 The biggest problem you have is the twist into the third act.
不夠有戲劇張力 It isn't dramatic enough
所以高潮才不夠令人滿意 which is why you don't have a satisfying climax.
你以為我不知道嗎 Tell me something I don't know.
把整件事倒過來寫 Wouldn't it be smarter to put the whole thing
揭露老公是殺手 不會比較好嗎? on its head and reveal the husband as the killer?
很好 Oh that's good.
更有趣的寫法是 老婆陷害他 Or, what would be more interesting is if it's the wife who set him up.
為什麼老婆要送自己丈夫入獄? Why would the wife send her husband to the gallows?
非常明顯 親愛的 It's obvious, darling.
蘇珊成為頭號嫌疑犯 Susan Rutherford becomes the prime suspect
因為她的不在場證據有漏洞 when her alibi fails to materialize, and we naturally
所以我們合理推斷 assume that she's trying to protect the reputation
她是為了保護外交大臣的名聲 of the foreign secretary, whose aspirations
想成為首相的他 被發現外遇 of becoming the prime minister would be severely compromised
對仕途是一大打擊 if it was revealed that he was having an affair.
但事實上就是那樣 But, in reality, nothing could be further from the truth,
我們從受害者身上得知 which is what we learn from the victim himself.
也是靠著靈媒的幫助才知道 And it's only through the medium that they can work it out.
才知道? Work what out?
她肚中孩子是已逝外交大臣的 That she's pregnant with the dead foreign secretary's child.
很好 Oh, that's good.
嗯 Mm.
連我都沒想到這結尾 Well even I didn't see that one coming.
你當然沒想到 親愛的 Of course you didn't, darling.
你只負責動筆 You're just the writer.
很抱歉 康德明夫人 該是時候... I'm afraid, Mrs. Condomine, the time has come
向你坦誠 for me to admit quite frankly,
我根本不知道怎麼送她回陰間 I haven't the foggiest idea how to send her back.
我有自己的理由想要與亡者溝通 I have my own personal reasons for wishing to communicate with the departed,
但我從來沒想過 but I never for a moment considered the possibility
有需要送亡者回去的可能性 of having to send someone back.
你最好找出辦法 Well I suggest that you find a way.
我拒絕跟別人共享老公 I refuse to share my husband with anyone,
尤其是他往生的前妻 especially his dead ex-wife.
如果我知道你丈夫 Well if I thought for a moment that your husband
希望與自己死亡前妻的靈魂接觸 wished to get in touch with the spirit
我當然會先跟你溝通 of his dead ex-wife, I would have of course consulted you first.
道德上應盡的義務 After all, noblesse oblige.
我保證 他沒有想與她聯絡的意圖 He had no intention of getting in touch with her. I can assure you.
安排這整件事 是為了他劇本的題材 The whole thing was planned in order to get material for his new project.
所以邀請我是為了取笑我? Am I to understand I was invited in the spirit of mockery?
他只是想記錄你的一些技法 He merely wanted to make some notes of the tricks of the trade.
一些技法?我從來沒感到如此受辱 Tricks of the trade? I've never been so insulted in my life.
我很抱歉我不是有意傷害你 I'm sorry, that all came out wrong.
我被這件事搞得心煩意亂 I'm, I'm rather overwrought with the whole affair.
拜託 我懇求你幫助我們 Please, I implore you to help us.
我回薩賽克斯的路上會經過靈性聯盟 I will go to the Spiritual Alliance
問他們如何處理 on my way back to Sussex and ask them for guidance.
薩賽克斯? Sussex?
非常時刻你不能拋下我們 You can't abandon us in our hour of need.
因為最近發生的事 我無法負擔飯店 Well, due to my recent circumstances, I can no longer afford to stay here,
但你可以聯絡我 but you can contact me.
我可以幫你付錢 所有開銷 I can cover your hotel bill, and any expenses,
直到這件可怕的事被解決 till this terrifying ordeal has been resolved.
"蘇珊朝外交大臣那彎下腰" Susan Rutherford leans over the foreign secretary.
不要停 Don't stop.
"蘇聯可以等 外交大臣說" 'The Soviet Union can wait.' Says the foreign secretary.
"他轉頭熱切地望著蘇珊" He turns, and looks at Susan longingly.
"這不能等 他悄悄地說" 'This can't, ' he whispers urgently.
"然後他慢慢的" And then... he starts to slowly
"解開絲質上衣的扣子" unbutton her silk blouse,
"深情熱烈的親吻對方" as they start to passionately kiss.
好 這邊就是第一幕的轉變 Okay. That takes us up to the first act turn.
你不能在高潮地方停下來 You can't just stop mid-flow.
我累了 而且又渴 I'm tired, and I'm thirsty,
我想去城裏喝酒 跟以前一樣 and I want to go into town and drink Negronis like we used to.
但時間很晚了 But it's, it's getting late.
你真的...過得有點太舒適了 查爾斯 You really have got a little too comfortable in your slippers, Charles.
你想要什麼 艾薇拉? What do you want, Elvira?
想要?我不懂你在說什麼 - Want? - Hmm. I don't know what you mean.
我記得你這麼端莊安靜的時候 I remember whenever you were overwhelmingly demure,
代表你有想要的東西 it usually meant that you wanted something.
你疑心病這麼重真糟糕 It's horrid of you to be so suspicious.
我只想跟你兩人獨處 All I want is to be alone with you.
無法否認 再次見到你有獨特的感覺 I can't deny, I do feel rather peculiar seeing you again.
我想你大過於想活著 I've missed you more than life itself.
我也想你 I've missed you too.
我的美國夢 My American dream.
那場意外後我心都碎了 I was utterly heartbroken after the accident.
事實上 我好像一直沒接受失去你 The truth is, I don't believe I ever really got over losing you.
你愛露絲嗎? Do you love Ruth?
當然愛 Of course I do.
跟愛我一樣愛? As much as you loved me?
不要傻了 Don't be silly.
完全不一樣 It's entirely different.
我好開心 I'm so glad.
沒有辦法跟過去相比 對吧? Nothing could have ever been quite the same, could it?
我們去蘇荷區 Let's go to SoHo.
把拖鞋換掉 去跳舞? Swap the slippers for some dancing shoes?
讓自己愛人與被愛 # You gotta give a little, take a little #
願意讓自己心碎 # Let your poor heart break a little #
那就是關於愛的 # That's the story of #
關於愛的榮耀 # that's the glory of love #
讓自己哭 讓自己笑 # You gotta laugh a little, cry a little #
讓天上的雲伸個懶腰 # Let the clouds roll back a little #
這就是關於愛的 # That's the story of #
關於愛的榮耀 # that's the glory of love #
# As long as there's the two of us we got the world and all its charms #
慢下來! slow down
我要吐了 I think I'm gonna be sick.
天啊... Oh, God.
查爾斯! Charles!
我喜歡再度開車 I love being back behind the wheel of a car.
我沒辦法喜歡這件事 Can't say the feeling's mutual.
查爾斯 你跑去哪? Charles?
我擔心的都生病了 Where on earth have you been? I've been worried sick.
可惜沒病死呀 It's too bad it's not terminal.
我想釐清思緒 所以開車去兜風 I wanted to clear my head, so I took a long drive.
坐在副駕駛位? In the passenger seat?
聽著 該慶祝的時候我們別吵架 Look, let's not quarrel when we should be celebrating.
我完成劇本的第一幕 寫得很好 I finished the first act of my screenplay, and it's rather good.
應該說是我的劇本 My screenplay more like.
你怎麼一天內寫得完? How did you manage that in a day?
艾薇拉有幫我 Elvira helped me.
所以你的意思是 Do you mean to tell me that not only has she bullied
她不僅強迫進入我們人生中 her way back over the threshold,
她現在還要試著跟你一起工作? she's trying to work with you now as well?
什麼試著?我幫你寫了15本書 What do you mean trying? I've written 15 books in your name.
艾薇拉 現在不要討論這個 Elvira, this is neither the time nor the place.
無法容忍 Oh, this is intolerable.
艾薇拉 你聽我說 -親愛的... Elvira, now you listen to me.
她在那兒 She's over there.
好 Right.
聽著 艾薇拉 Now listen here, Elvira.
我見過阿卡蒂夫人 I've been to see Madame Arcati.
她說會送你回到你原本離開的地方 She's going to send you back to wherever it is she regrettably dragged you from.
查爾斯 查爾斯? Charles? Charles?
先不要衝動 Don't.
親愛的 不要生氣 Darling, please don't be upset.
生氣?你跟前妻共度一夜 Upset? You've just spent the night with your ex-wife.
你覺得我該怎麼想? How do you expect me to feel?
開心 Ecstatic.
我們前進好萊塢的夢想快達成了 Our dream of going to Hollywood is finally within our grasp.
交出這劇本後 我們就會越過大西洋 As soon as I deliver this screenplay, we'll be crossing the Atlantic
比說出日落大道四個字還快 quicker than you can say Sunset Boulevard.
想想那些鎂光燈 Think of the glitz.
華麗的一切 The glamour.
我們將會共度的好時光 The good times we're gonna share.
你再也不會從雜誌讀別人的生活 You won't be reading about other people's lives anymore.
他們會讀我們的生活 They'll be reading about ours.
沒有她你做不到? And you can't do it without her?
我當然可以 Of course I can.
只是這樣比較快 It'll just be a lot quicker this way.
你真的不需要感到嫉妒 There's really no need for you to be jealous.
我愛的人是你 You're the one I love.
抱歉我說的不夠頻繁 Forgive me that I don't tell you enough.
現在文思泉涌 其他部位也即將噴發 Now that the words are flowing, I feel unblocked in other areas too.
答應我你不會碰她 Promise me you can't touch her.
親愛的 她是鬼 Darling, she's a ghost.
而且 我唯一想碰的女人只有你 And besides, the only woman I want to touch is you.
聽著 女人 Listen here, lady.
或許是你招喚我到這個世界 You may have summoned me into this world,
但我不可能讓你送我回去 but there's no way I'm going to let you send me back again.
我不會離開這裏 明白嗎? I'm here to stay. Is that clear?
哦 Oh.
嗯 Mm.
你竟敢忽視我 愛管閒事的老太婆 How dare you ignore me, you meddling old crone?
你要讓我過自己想要的生活 Either you leave me in your peace to live my life,
不然我會一直騷擾你到死 or I'll haunt you until the day you die.

混亂的象徵 Symbol of chaos,
毀滅與破壞 destruction and devastation.
醒來囉 太陽曬屁股 Wakey-wakey. Rise and shine.
我是什麼 查爾斯?暖場秀? What was I, Charles? The warm-up act?
如果我是你 我不會動 If I was you, I'd keep it there.
下午好 夫人 Good afternoon, ma'am.
我要矯正你 伊蒂絲 I'm going to have to correct you, Edith.
不只下午好 是輝煌的下午 It's not a good afternoon. It's a glorious one.
我該準備午餐嗎? Shall I prepare lunch?

我跌下樓梯 Oh, I slipped down the staircase.
你動作必須慢下來 You really must refrain from doing everything at the double.
你不是在海軍裏服役 知道嗎 You're not in the navy, you know.
我並沒有很急 夫人 I wasn't hurrying, ma'am.
只是第一層階梯被塗滿了機油 There was axle grease smeared all over the top step.
沒錯 她的經紀人很愛那點子 Yes, her agent loves the pitch,
那會是適合她的一部片 thinks it would be a perfect vehicle for her.
真的?葛麗泰嘉寶? -是的 Seriously? Greta Garbo? Yes.
由她來演我的戲真是美夢成真 Mata Hari speaking my words would be a dream come true.
查爾斯 寫作進度正常嗎? Charles, are you still on track?
進度非常好 Yes, absolutely still on track.
第二幕寫完馬上送稿過去 I'll send the next ream of pages over as I reach the second act turn.

"那就是我的工作 親愛的" like... 'That's my job, sweetie. I just do it.'
哈 Ha.
隨便你的喜好 Whatever you prefer.
劇本作家是寫你的名字 It's your name on the script.
然後螢幕變黑 And fade to black.
我覺得電影會比原著還好 Well, dare I say,I think the film's gonna be even better than the book.
我們在截稿日前完成 And we finished ahead of the deadline.
等我告訴露絲 Just wait till I tell Ruth.

我的老天 Oh, for heaven's sake.

只有一個目的 for one purpose and one purpose only.
她來這裏把你佔為己有 直到永遠 She came here to have you to herself, forever.
怎麼做? -把你殺了 當然 Ow! How? By killing you off, of course.
這太荒唐了 That's absurd.
你真的以為櫃子自己爬到屋頂上 再自己跳下來? Do you really think the cabinet climbed up onto the roof and jumped off of its own accord?
艾薇拉脾氣不太好 但她是愛我的 Elvira might be prone to temper tantrums, but she still loves me.
她不會想傷害我 She'd never wish me any harm.
如果你死了 那她就永遠贏我 Ah. If you were dead, it would be her final triumph over me.
她可以在陰間永遠擁有你 She'd have you all to herself on her beastly astral plane,
我會被困在這裏 and I'd be left high and dry.
她大概在計劃什麼靈界再婚儀式 She's probably planning some sort of spiritual remarriage.

你繼續寫劇本 while we're holed up in here.
我寫完了 Ah, umm... I've already finished it.
我以為你說還在掙扎中 Well, I thought you said you were struggling.
現在回頭想 On reflection
我當初把事情想的太複雜 I think I was overthinking through the whole thing.
我再看一次手稿 I'll give the manuscript a quick read and drive it

我們一直試圖聯絡您 We've been urgently trying to contact you.
查爾斯有生命危險 艾薇拉想殺他 Charles's life is in grave danger. Elvira is trying to murder him.
我擔心她會成為惡靈 I feared she might become a malevolent spirit.
還真是令人安心的消息 你在哪裏? That's putting it mildly. Where are you?
蘇塞克斯 我一切都準備好了 In Sussex. I've gathered everything together and now I'm ready.

我從來沒有停止愛過你 I've never stopped loving you.
我不知道要說什麼 先生 I don't know what to say, sir.
你表現愛的方式很奇怪 查爾斯 You have a funny way of showing it, Charles.
我本來今天早上交件前 I was gonna put your name on the manuscript
要把你的名字也寫上手稿 我發誓 before I delivered it this morning, I promise.
那就不用了 先生 That won't be necessary, sir.
我是女人 查爾斯 I'm a woman, Charles.
我們習慣了做事不受到肯定 We're used to not getting the credit we deserve.
不 我堅持 我換衣服馬上過去 No, I insist. I'll get changed and leave straightaway.
康德明夫人開車離開了 Mrs. Condomine left in the car a while ago.
她說吃中飯前會回來 She said she would be back by lunchtime.
艾薇拉 你做了什麼? Elvira, what have you done?
哎呀 Oops.
那些我所不能控制的事 # There are some things that are out of my control #
像是起風 下雨 下雪 # Like the wind and the rain and the snow #
你完全制服我的靈魂 # You've completely over-powered my soul #
那些我所不能控制的事 # There are some things that are out of my control #
你讓我的一年中天天是盛夏 # You make it summer every day of the year #
你的一個回眸 # One glance from you #
就能讓萬里無雲 # and the clouds disappear #
注定於此相遇 就像大自然之力 # Like forces of nature we were meant to be here #
我心中的火焰為你燃燒 # Now this flame in my heart burns for you #

康德明先生 Mr. Condomine, I would just like to say that
我只想說 我非常責備自己的行為 I reproach myself bitterly.
不是你的錯 阿卡蒂夫人 You are not to blame, Madame Arcati.
是我自己的錯 The fault lies squarely on my shoulders.
是我的野心跟自私帶大家陷入混亂 It was my ambition and ego that dragged us into this unbearable mess.
我的後半生必須與這事實共處 And that's something I shall have to live with for the rest of my life.
上次我跟夫人說話時 你身陷危機 The last time I spoke with Mrs. Condomine, your life was in danger.
請盡快來找我 I urge you to come and see me at your earliest possible convenience.
這是我的名片 我等你 Here is my card. I'll be waiting.
你不喝點飲料? You're not going to stay for refreshments?
拜託 不要覺得我失禮 Oh, please don't think me rude, but I prefer
但面對一個靈魂的離去 to contemplate the passing of a spirit
我想獨自沉思 in my own private way.
我很抱歉 康德明先生 My sincerest condolences, Mr. Condomine.
不應該是恭喜嗎? Shouldn't that be congratulations?
你在這裏做什麼? What the hell are you doing here?
沒有羞恥心嗎? Have you no shame?
那是一場意外 查爾斯 It was an accident, Charles.
我本來要殺你 I was trying to kill you.
你怎麼可以如此冷血 How can you be so heartless?
死亡讓你變得冷血 Death does that to you.
你看一個人喪禮的出席人數 You know, you can always tell how well regarded
就知道他在世時的評價 someone is by the attendance at their funeral.
那什麼意思? What's that supposed to mean?
今天的出席人數滿少的 Bit of a poor turnout today, if you ask me.
大概只有40人 I barely counted forty people.
那就夠了 That does it.
過來這裏! Come here!
跟以前一樣 查爾斯!在花園裏追我 Just like old times, Charles. Ahh! With you chasing me round the garden!

我為什麼在這裏 Why am I here?
你要接受心理治療 You've been sectioned under the Mental Treatment Act
接下來28天是強制觀察 and held under mandatory observation for the next 28 days.
我祝你腐爛在地獄 I hope you rot in hell.
對唯一能幫你的人脾氣可以好一點 It's not wise to be bad-tempered with the only person who can help you.
我寧願咬斷舌頭也不要請你幫忙 I'd rather eat my own tongue than ask you for help.
