anna: worst fears confirmed.

declan: she's rock solid right there! beautiful. come on.

anna: none of those ³ airbags to get in the way.

declan: don't listen to her. she knows not what she says.

anna: do you mind?

declan: ah! sure.

(hinges squeaking)

anna: thank you.

declan: how does that work?

anna: can you be careful with that? that was a gift from my boyfriend.

declan: he bought you a suitcase?

anna: (chuckles) it's a vuitton.

declan: what?

anna: a louis vuitton.

declan: come on. is it yourself, louis? can i give you a hand getting into the car, louis? she named her suitcase. she's a crackpot.

man 1: you can't go now, missus.

anna: why not?

man 1: a black cat just crossed your path. you can't start a journey when you see a black cat. ten years bad luck.

man 2: no, it's not a cat, it's a ⁴. anyway, it's 15 years bad luck.

man 1: thirteen!

man 3: it's 12, ⁵ 12.

anna: then i guess it's a good thing i don't believe in luck, so...

man 2: well, you ought to, if you're getting into that, you.

********************************

anna: okay, we're here, on the road.

declan: uh-huh!

anna: it's only february 27th. i still have two days to get there, so...

declan: mmm-hmm.

anna: where are we?

(irish rock music playing on stereo)

declan: (belching)

anna: (sighs in disgust) i may even get there before the stores close. i could get some shopping in.

declan: that's the reason you're going to dublin, is to shop?

anna: no, i'm... (music stops) if you must know, i'm going there to ⁶ to my boyfriend. he's at a medical conference there. he's a cardiologist. we are applying to move into the most amazing apartment, and i actually thought he was going to propose to me the other night, but he didn't.

declan: yeah?

anna: yeah, and you guys have this great tradition that a woman can propose to a man on the 29th of february in a leap year.

declan: yeah?

anna: yeah.

declan: mmm-hmm.

anna: so i thought, "why not?"

declan: yeah!

anna: yeah. i mean...

(both whooping)

(both chuckling)

declan: that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard! (laughing)

anna: no, it isn't.

declan: yeah, it is.

anna: no, it's a tradition. it's a romantic tradition.

declan: it's a day for desperate women trying to trap themselves a man who clearly doesn't want to get married. you've got to know that if your man wanted to propose, he'd have done it already. fact! (laughing)

anna: (chuckles mockingly) (chuckling)

(irish rock music blaring)

(music stops)

declan: no one touches the music!

(tires screeching)

anna: are you crazy? you know nothing about me or jeremy! you know what you are? you're a cynic. you're a lonely, bitter cynic.

declan: better that than an ⁷. "leap year, diddly-eye! "will you marry me, diddly-eye? "i've got a suitcase called louis, diddly-eye!"

anna: what are you, the lucky ⁸ leprechaun? you know what? we are done. we're not talking anymore. i'm not paying you to talk, i'm not paying for your opinion. i'm paying you to drive, so just get in the car and drive.

declan: suits me, bob.

anna: and what is with this bob thing?

(cows mooing)

妙语佳句 活学活用

1. classic: 最优秀的；第一流的。

2. louis vuitton: 路易·威登，高档皮具品牌。影片中德克兰不知道这个奢侈品牌，还以为安娜给自己的皮箱起名字。

3. crackpot: 有古怪想法的人；怪人。

4. magpie: 喜鹊。magpie还可以表示“饶舌的人”。

5. trap: 迫使……进入（不能逃脱的地方）。影片中德克兰认为闰年求婚的传统不过是女人想绑住男人的借口罢了，如果一个男人真的想结婚，他不会等着女人来求婚。看一下例子：many women are trapped in loveless marriages.（许多女人陷入没有爱情的婚姻之中而无法摆脱。）

6. cynic: 愤世嫉俗的人；悲观者；怀疑者。cynic的反面则是starry-eyed（天真的，过分乐观的）。

7. leprechaun: （爱尔兰传说中像小矮人的）魔法精灵。
