我的朋友 见到你太高兴了 My friend, I can't tell you how good to see you.
老实说 我以为你已经不在人世了 I got to be honest with you, I thought you were dead.
我现在感觉好极了 拜托 你在撒谎吧 Never felt better in my life. Oh, come on. That's a lie.
看看你 Look at you.
Sylvie怎么样了 Sylvie死了 How's Sylvie Sylvie is dead.
太棒了 孩子们呢 Fantastic. And the kids
Denny上次你说过不管机率多大 Denny, the last time we spoke, you mentioned that despite astronomical odds,
你还是成为一个相当棒的律师 you managed to become yet an even better lawyer.
难以置信 是吧 Hard to believe, isn't it
我有个预感 鉴于我非常善于辩论 I have a motion which, obviously, I'm quite capable of arguing myself,
我比你更有才华 不 你不是的 being more talented than you. No, you're not.
我恰好成了委托人 I also happen to be the client.
这个案子相当的不寻常 The case is also extremely unconventional.
我想被冷冻起来 I want to be frozen.
你是什么意思 What do you mean
我想被冰冻保存在人体冷冻学院里 I meanI want to be frozen and stored in a cryonic institute.
你是什么意思 我已经78岁了 What do you mean I'm 78 years old.
我的身体快要不行了 It won't be long before my body starts to wither.
我的一生很圆满 I've lived a full life.
不久以后科技能让我再活一次 The technology will soon exist that I will be able to double that life.
我想被冷冻保存直到科技成为现实的那天 I want to be frozen and stored until such time that technology becomes a reality.
你是什么意思 What do you mean
我不想永远的离开这世界 I mean when I leave this world, I don't want it to be forever.
对现在而言 Which mean for now
我想被冷冻 I want to be frozen.
你是什么意思 What do you mean
波士顿法律 第一季 第十六集 Boston Legal 1x16 Let Sales Ring
基本上他想安乐死 So basically, he wants to be euthanized.
并且冰冻起来 And preserved on ice.
很明显 我没听说过这种个人权利 Evidently, there's some right to privacy law I've never heard of.
为什么 Why should you
这是宪法规定的 It's in the constitution.
Milton Bombay在这儿做什么 What's Milton Bombay doing here
他想被冷冻保存在人体冷冻设备里 He wants to be frozen and stored in a cryonics facility.
全体通过 他希望Denny做辩护律师 All in favor And he wants Denny to argue it.
是什么原因导致他这样做 And what could possibly occasion him to want that
问题是 这件事是基于权利法案 The problem is, the basis of the case, if there is one, would lie in the bill of rights,
当然Denny肯定希望这项法案从来没被通过 which Denny, of course, feels never should have been passed.
我们是最高法院派来推翻它的 We're one supreme court appointment away from overturning it.
权利法案 该死的权利 The bill of rights. Damn right.
现在是共和党的天下 Red states rule.
Paul看起来有点心理缺失 Paul, there seems to be some psychological deficit in play here.
我赞成Milton的说法 而不是你的 I refer to Milton's, not yours.
想要被冷冻的人应该去找心理医生 Any personho wants to be frozen should perhaps
而不是律师 be referred to a therapist, not a lawyer.
嘿 帅哥 Hey, pretty boy.
听说你在找有趣的案子 I hear you're looking for some interesting cases.
我们还没有正式见过面 Chelina Hall Chelina Hall. We haven't officially met.
对 我只私下在女洗手间外匆匆瞥到过你 Yes, I've peeked at you in the girls' room unofficially.
很可爱 Cute.
过来看看吗 Come with me
Stuart Milch Alan Shore Stuart Milch, Alan Shore.
我的荣幸 先生 再次感谢同意和我见面 A pleasure, sir. Thanks again for agreeing to see me.
别客气 我还没有同意 Not at all, especially since I've made no such agreement.
给他看看你的玩意儿 Stuart Show him the gizmo, Stuart.
告诉他这是什么 Stuart Tell him what it is, Stuart.
它是新闻阻止器 It's called a news blocker.
网上有卖的 把它装在有线电视同轴电缆的输入里 Sold off the internet. You attach it to the coaxial input on your television,
它就能阻止新闻转播 and it basically blocks news transmissions.
是真的 It's true.
我的中学校长把这个装备 装在楼里所有的电视上 My high school principal to all the televisions in the building. attached these devices
问题是 The problem is,
它只阻止了一个广播公司的新闻 最公平客观的那个 it turns out it only blocks one network, the most fair and balanced one.
而其他的节目 孩子们都能看到 它选择了一个广播公司的节目 All the others, kids can watch. It singles out one network only.
因为据说这个广播公司支持保守派 Yes, because this network supposedly pushes a conservative agenda,
完全是一派胡言 which is a lot of hooey.
这是明目张胆的审查行为 This is blatant censorship.
让宣扬自由党的媒体占了便宜 我很讨厌 It furthers evidence of a liberal media, and I, for one, am sick of it.
一直都很讨厌 In all my years
他一直都很讨厌 In all his years.
Milton 我把你当作朋友 Milton, I consider you a friend.
事实上我却觉得你有点傻 Actually, I don't. I find you a bit boorish.
但我一直都很欣赏你的公正 直率 But I have always enjoyed your unfettered candor,
因为你的直率 这起案子赢不了 and, in the spirit of that candor, the case cannot be won.
假设你的生命只有一次 Given that this is the only lifetime you'll ever get to have,
请珍惜它 我们的法学制度 please don't waste what's left of it in the vast,
就如巨大洞穴般的污水池里的残留物 cavernous sinkhole known as our system of juris prudence.
我的一生都在这样的制度里 I made my life in that system.
我已攀登到了这个制度的顶部 I rose to the very top of this system.
不 你没有 No, you didn't.
Milton没有法官能够允许你安乐死并被冷冻 Milton, no judge igoing to let you be euthanized and stashed in a sub-zero.
没有试过怎么知道呢 Shirley We cannot know that unless we try, Shirley.
我知道你刚退休 是不是 I know you recently retired. Is this
我不需要心理上的忠告 and, please, do not proffer psychological counsel.
我来这里的是要找个聪明的律师 I came in here in search of legal and intellectual acuity.
你找到了Denny And you sought out Denny
我保证 我是经过深思熟虑后 I assure you, this is something I considered with all due gravity.
才做出了决定 I came to a decision,
现在我委托你做我的律师 执行我的决定 and now I appeal to you as my attorney to help me execute that decision.
我说得够清楚了吧 Do I make myself clear
很好 Perfectly.
我们会考虑你的决定 We're talking about your execution.
冷冻 那是他来这里的原因吗 Frozen. That's why he's here
如果有法律上拿不准的地方 尽快告诉我 If there's any legal research on point, which I doubt there is, the sooner, the better.
比如你可以找找辅助自杀或寻死的权利 By way of analogy, you might want to look at assisted suicide or right to die.
Brad 你是男的 擅长理科 Brad, you take the math and science because you're male,
所以你更有资格 and therefore more innately qualified.
找出一切和人体冷冻技术相关的资料 Anything and everything you can find on cryonics technology.
等等 我们要帮助Bombay被冷冻吗 Wait, this firm is actually going to help Milton Bombay be put on ice
Lori 你们都该知道 Oh, come now, Lori, you of all people should know
冰棒一样的生活也不是太糟糕 it's not so bad to go through life as a popsicle.
这是什么意思 What is that supposed to mean
没什么 Nothing.
天啊 人人都这么敏感 My, everybody's so sensitive.
我们就不能融洽相处吗 Can't we all just get along
今天早上我们就去起诉 越快越好 We go to court this morning, so as fast as you can.
首先 学生没有法定的权利在学校里看新闻 First of all, students have no vested rights whatsoever to watch any news during school.
但是在Winslow中学他们是被允许这么做的 But they are allowed to do so at winslow high,
除了一个广播公司 except for one network.
Tyler小姐 这个电视节目是经过筛选的吗 Ms. Tyler, is this particular broadcast being singled out on content
是的 法官大人 Even if it is, your honor,
学校有权限制电视内容 schools have the right to legislate content,
就像我们有权搜查学生的储物柜 just as we can search students' lockers.
反对 法官大人 Objection to the spin, judge. This is a no-spin zone.
政策规定学校校长可以不遵循合理的原因 A school principal is not subject to grounds of reasonableness when it comes to policy.
这次是对节目做手脚 下次又是什么呢 烧书吗 This is the first amendment in play here. What's next, burning a few books
Tyler小姐 我必须要说 这样糟透了 Ms. Tyler, I must say, this has a bad stink to it.
你怎样禁止一个广播公司的新闻节目 而不是其他的 How do you ban one network news program and not the others
校长觉得这家广播公司的节目不宜孩子观看 The principal felt this particular network was detrimental.
我想问问证人席上的校长 Well, I want to hear from the principal in this witness chair,
否则我就同意原告的请求 or I'm going to grant the petitioner's motion right now.
好的 我下午把他带来 Fine. I can get him here this afternoon.
午餐时间休庭 下午4点继续 We'll adjourn for lunch. Be back at 4:00.
他们在这儿 There they are
Bombay先生 你为什么这么做 Mr. Bombay, why are you doing this
很简单 我不想太早宣布遗嘱 It's simply about wanting to continue my legacy for centuries to come.
说不定我是最伟大的律师 I'm perhaps the greatest lawyer of all time,
不 他不是 我比他好多了 Denny Crane No, he's not. I'm better. Denny Crane.
将来我也是最伟大的律师 and I want that time to continue into the future.
你好吗 亲爱的 How are you, sweetie Still the king.
Denny Crane Denny Crane.
Bombay先生 你向法庭请求中止生命 Mr. Bombay, you are asking for a court order to end your life.
用今天的科技 Under today's science.
明天可能会大不一样 但是 先生 现实一点 Tomorrow might be quite different. But, sir, let's be realistic.
该死的为什么我要现实一点呢 这是我的身体 Why the helldo I have to be realistic It's my body.
我要做什么 怀孕吗 What do I have to do, get pregnant
你也许有点超前了 Well, you may be couching this in pro-life terms,
但是以今天的科技 冷冻意味着死亡 but in today's scientific world, being frozen makes you dead.
我在争取将来重生的机会 I am asking for the chance to be alive in tomorrow's world.
和我的曾曾曾曾孙一起玩耍 To play with my great-great-great great-grandchildren.
你现在有孙子了吗 Do you have grandchildren today
有六个 都成年了 I've got six, all grown.
有三个很爱我 Three of them love me.
假设他们中有一个今天出现在这里 比如30岁 Suppose one of them came into the court at, say, the age of 30
也请求冷冻 asking to be frozen.
我会说再等等 你还年轻 I'd say wait. You've got a lot of years.
但如果他们想在壮年时就这么做呢 Well, but maybe they, too, would like it done before their body starts to go south,
比如30岁 which, at 30, it can.
我不提倡健康的年轻人这么做 Look, I don't advocate this for young, healthy people.
但是如果你能自己作主 那其他人也能 对吗 But certainly, if you can decide for yourself, so should others, right
我快80了 I'm close to 80.
快死的人了 My life is almost over.
难道只有年长者才能自己作主吗 Does one have to be old to get this autonomy
一个35岁的癌症患者呢 How about somebody 35 with cancer
如果是绝症 他可以 If it was incurable, yes.
帕金森综合症 Parkinson's disease. M.S.
假设有人想被冷冻以此逃脱兵役呢 What if somebody wanted to get frozen to avoid the draft
让他去加拿大 把他的子弹冻起来 Let him move to Canada. Freeze his balls off.
Denny Crane Denny Crane.
为什么你要这么做 你在吹毛求疵 Why did you do that You were getting picked apart in there.
我没有 我做得很好 我必须阻止对方的势头 I was not. I was doing just fine. I had to stop the other side's momentum.
他想把事情搞砸 He was shooting spitballs at a battleship.Boys.
我在法庭上正襟危坐 你却在一旁摇旗呐喊 I was having a real momentin there, and you stepped on it.
我们需要回去找个医学专家 Boys, we need to get back to the office and prepare our expert.
他坏了我的事 我没有 好了 He stepped on my moment. Did not.Boys.
人体冷冻学的支持者们不认为病人死亡 Cryonics proponents don't refer to the patient as dead,
而是保存 simply preserved.
冷冻 是的 Frozen. Yes.
但是医生 如果心脏停止跳动 大脑停止活动 But, doctor, if a person's heart isn't beating, if there's no brain activity,
我们就称为死亡 we tend to call them dead.
按照今天的医学定义 是的 但是根据人体冷冻学 Under today's medical definition, yes. But the definition of cryonics
这是在极低的温度下维持生命的过程 is basically a process using a very cold temperature to prevent people from dying.
我们从哪儿找来的江湖郎中 Where'd we get this quack
医生 坦白说 Uh, doctor, let's be fair.
有没有人在被冷冻后生还 Has anyone ever been brought back to life after being frozen
没有 现在还不行 但科技在进步 No, and it's not likely to happen soon, but the technology is changing.
我们正在研究分子纳米技术 We're discovering more and more about molecular nanotechnology every day,
总有一天会实现的 and one day, it will be a reality.
分子什么 Molecular what
稍等 医生 One second, doctor.
Denny 我正在询问 没有时间跟你解释 Denny, I'm gonna try something here I don't have time to explain.
你只需要坐在这里 好吗 I just need you to go with it, okay
从100开始往前默数 I want you to count backwards from 100 silently.
为什么 Why
一会再告诉你 这很重要 I'll explain later. It's important.
99 98 Uh, 99, 98
好了 医生 Okay, doctor,
我们已经了解未来的冷冻技术 但请你举个例子 we've heard that cryonics is in our future, but, please, give me one example,
证明这项技术是可行的 one piece of evidence that indicates that this could possibly work.
林蛙 The wood frog.
抱歉 你说的是林蛙吗 I'm sorry. Did you say wood frog
是的 Uh, yes.
一种生活在加拿大北极圈的生物 冬眠时会完全冷冻 A frogin the Canadian arctic that hibernates and completely freezes in the winter.
没有心跳 没有大脑活动 按照今天对死亡的定义 No heartbeat, no brain activity. It goes completely dead
它和死了一模一样 by today's definition of death.
春天它又会苏醒 Then in the spring, it wakens.
大脑恢复运转 心脏继续跳动 Brain activity resumes, heart starts beating.
它又活了 It's alive again.
那你认为林蛙可以 And you think if it's possible for a frog
人也一样可以了 Why not for a human
如果在人体组织完好无损的情况下 完全中止新陈代谢 If we can accomplish total metabolic arrest with no tissue damage,
人们能够被冷冻上千年 we will be able to freeze people for thousands of years
再起死回生 and bring them back to life.
谢谢 医生 Thank you, doctor.
人类是热血动物 人体温度是98华氏度 Humans are warm-blooded animals designed to stay at 98 degrees.
而青蛙是冷血动物 它们的分子结构完全不同 Those frogs are cold-blooded with a completely different molecular structure.
不可否认冷冻技术的发展 Well, admittedly, the future of cryonics
包含分子技术的进步 involves the development of molecular technology.
但没有证据能表明它对热血动物一样有效 For which there is no evidence it can work with warm-blooded
有证据 Yes, there is.
我们冷冻老鼠肝脏 再把它们解冻 移植到活老鼠体内 We have frozen rat livers, thawed them, and transplanted them into living rats.
在以色列 还移植过心脏 In Israel, they did it with frozen hearts.
两个手术里 老鼠都活了 虽然存活时间不长 In both cases, the rats lived. Not for long,
但心脏和肝脏的确重活了 but the hearts and livers did come back to life.
我们已经冷冻了心脏瓣 With humans, we've frozen heart valves
你认为人体冷冻符合伦理吗 And you think the idea of freezing people is ethical
它能 很明显冷冻胚胎符合伦理 Is that consistent with It's evidently ethical to freeze embryos,
我想再次声明我们在讨论科学 but again, I'm up here to give you the science,
不是道德辩论 not engage in a moral debate.
他让他们哑口无言 He kicked their ass.
最重要的是他很诚实 And the best part of it was he had integrity,
这正是我们需要的 which is what you need in your expert.
我们付多少钱给他 2500美元 What did he cost us $2,500.
敲竹杠 The whore.
怎么了 Schmidt Schmidt. How are we doing
联邦政府那件案子可能是Schiavo The leading federal case would be Schiavo.
这不是第一次巡回审讯 It's not first circuit, but since the supreme court
但因为最高法院拒绝审理这个上诉 我们可以断定有人幕后操纵 just refused to hear the appeal, we could argue it's controlling.
我要看看 给我一份复印件 I want to read it. Can you make me a copy
你要看看吗 Denny 不 You want to read it, Denny Hell no.
我能私下和你说几句话吗 Uh, can I talk to you in private for a second, please
我 I, uh
我不想让你在上司面前尴尬 I didn't want to embarrass you in front of your superiors,
但这件案件可能是Cruzan在操纵 but it seems to me the controlling case on this would be Cruzan.
审判的核心是个人自主 Rehnquis The whole thrust of Rehnquist's opinion was autonomy,
病人有权做决定 the patient's right to decide.
胡说八道 这是个三方的问题 The opinion was muddled. It was essentially 3-pronged.
个人自主 病人最大的权益 国家对保护生命的权利 Autonomy, the patient's best interests, and the state's interest to preserve life.
第一方你获胜 You'd win on prong one,
但第二 三方你却快输了 but you'd likely lose on prongs two and three.
你最好去和Schiavo辩论 You're much better off arguing Schiavo.
Bombay先生 什么 Mr. Bombay. Yes
你还好吗 是的 Are you all right Oh, yes.
你刚刚让我想起了 Uh, it's just that you brought me back to a memory of
当我还是个年轻的合伙人的时候 我是个最快乐的律师 I think I was happiest as a lawyer when I was a young associate.
我讨厌做繁琐的办公室事务 I hated doing all the grunt work,
但这是为将来打基础 but there was all the promise of tomorrow.
今晚一起吃饭好吗 Tara Would you have dinner with me tonight, Tara
Milton Milton
为什么不和我一起吃饭呢 Why don't you have it with me
为什么是这个广播公司呢 Why this one particular network
我了解所有广播公司的伎俩 Look, I know that all the networks pander,
自由党的 保守党的 some to the liberal, some to the conservative,
但是当一个新闻机构在推动政治进程的话 but when a news organization goes as far as to actually promote a political agenda
我能先问问吗 这是怎样办到的 Can I dial you back a second How do they do that
首先广播公司有自己的利益 Well, first, the broadcasts speak for themselves.
广播公司CEO曾利用传媒私下为 前共和党主席工作过 Their CEO used to be the chief media operative for former republican presidents.
反对他的猜测 法官 I object to his open mind, judge.
请求删除刚才的谈话 有效 Move to strike. Sustained.
当我看到Outfoxed 我惊呆了 And then when I saw the documentary Outfoxed, it blew my mind.
因为 因为它详细记录了媒体怎样推动 Because Because it detailed the extent to which the media can go to promote
保守的共和党的进程 conservative republican causes.
法官大人 我有一份该纪录片的剪辑片段 Your honor, we'd like to show you a brief series of clips from this documentary.
正如人们所说的一样 We weren't necessarily, as it was told to us,
我们并不是一个必要的新闻机构 a news-gathering organization so much as we were
而只是一种观点的传话筒 a proponent of a point of view.
他们想让所有的新闻都是一个声音 They wanted all news to be a matter of opinion.
我们被下令进行政治宣传 We were ordered from the top to carry propaganda,
宣传右翼的保守党 carry republican right-wing propaganda.
很明显我们的活动被监控了 It was made very clear to us that our activities were being monitored,
就算没有实时监控 他们至少有记录 and if someone wasn't watching it live, they were at least recording it,
可以随时掌握我们的一言一行 and they would review it after the fact to see what we did.
我强烈建议你看此纪录片 If you watch the documentary, and I strongly suggest that you do,
你会发现这些情节会在电视上反复出现 you'll see that this goes on and on and on,
纪录片里的讲述者都是新闻工作者 and these accounts are from people on the inside.
好的 但电视上安装设备呢 Okay, but to put a device on the television
我讨厌禁止自由言论 Well, I hate the idea of shutting down free expression,
但这不仅是出于安全考虑 but this became more of a safety issue.
安全考虑 A safety issue
他们让主持人宣称只要有人反对战争 They've got their talk show hosts declaring that anyone who is opposed
他就是国家公敌 是叛国者 to the war is an enemy of the state, a traitor.
我们正陷入越来越多的战争中 孩子们因为不爱国而受到批评 We're getting more and more fights, kids are being attacked for being unpatriotic,
阿拉伯和穆斯林的学生成了众矢之的 Arab and muslim students are being targeted.
我承认也许这个小玩意有点过头了 Maybe this little device is overkill.
但我作为校长 I admit that. But I've got a high school to run,
我的首要责任是保护孩子们的安全 and the first order of the day is keep the kids safe.
我认为学校的首要责任是让孩子们 了解不同的声音 I thought the first order of an academic community was embracing diversity of opinion.
除非以宽容为前提 Not when it's bias that fosters intolerance.
你是否用这玩意阻止过 Did you attach any little blockers
歪曲总统或是国家安全的广播公司 to networks that lie about presidents and, say, the national guard
我也不否认存在对自由党的偏见 I don't dispute there's a liberal bias, too.
但你并没有检查过这些节目 But you don't censor those networks.
这些节目并没有鼓吹狭隘的思想 Those networks don't foster intolerance.
阻止过shock jock吗 或者种族歧视和厌女症并不是焦点 Any blockers for shock jocks Or is racism and misogyny not a concern
我得承认 有很多垃圾节目 Look, there's a lot of garbage out there. I'll admit that.
学校的老师呢 What about your own teachers
老师们 My teachers
近期的民意调查显示七分之六的大学教授 投票赞成Jone Kerry A recent poll showed 6 out of 7 college professors voted for John Kerry.
难道这不表明了学术界的偏向吗 Does that not suggest a bias in academia, Mr. Harper
反对 我们有数不清的新闻节目 Objection.We've got countless news programs,
铺天盖地的脱口秀 too many talk shows to keep track of, all kinds of opinions being
电视里充满了各种各样的观点 极左的或极右的 spewed out over the airwaves, extremes to the left, to the right,
而你唯一阻止的是 事情不是这样的 and the only thing you block That's actually not true.
有很多我们不允许的节目 There's all kinds of programs we don't permit.
但这仅仅是新闻节目 But this is the only news show.
阻止某个广播公司意味着什么呢 Look, what does it say that they make a device
意味着审查行为普遍存在 但并非正确 to block out this It says that censorship is popular. particular news network That doesn't make it right.
作为校长 我必须这样做 And as principal, I have to make that call.
让我告诉你 我是个自豪的美国人 And let me say this. I'm a proud American.
在我的门廊里悬挂着国旗 I got a flag on my porch.
我每晚都为军队祈祷 我教我的孩子们也这么做 I pray for those troops every night. I taught some of those kids.
他们为了民主而战 They're over there fighting for democracy,
包括你向质问政府的权利 which includes the right for you to question your government.
然而 作为一名校长和一个公民 这个广播公司的做法激怒了我 And for this network to be saying otherwise offends me as a citizen and as a principal.
我知道 所以 I see. So
你阻止新闻以此推动民主 you're squashing content to promote democracy.
重复一遍 Once again,
我阻止任何鼓吹狭隘思想的节目 I will shut down any content that fosters intolerance.
这就是我的立场 That is where I stand.
你要和他一起共进晚餐吗 You're going to dinner with him
我要找出到底发生了什么事 I want to find out what's really going on here.
发生的事就是我们刚刚轻易获胜了 What's going on is a runaway ego. It's all about the spotlight.
他希望成为我 The man wishes he were me.
我们都希望如此 Denny We all wish that, Denny.
我知道 我和Milton认识很久了 I know. I, I go way back with Milton.
我对Milton了如指掌 I know Milton like the back of my hand.
他清楚将会输掉这件案子 法庭不会让他冒险被冷冻 He knows he's gonna lose that motion. No risk of him being frozen.
同时 他是个新闻焦点 In the meantime, he's all over the news.
我告诉你 他想成为我 I'm telling you, the man wants to be me.
即便如此 我要和他谈谈 Even so, I'm gonna have a little talk with him.
他想让你去Nicky Blair那儿 看着吧 He's gonna insist you go to Nicky Blair's. Watch.
你说什么 他给他们钱允许他唱歌 Sorry He pays them to let him sing.
你说什么 I beg your pardon
他给了餐厅领班100块让他走过去说 He slips the maitre d' 100 bucks to come over to the table and say,
Bombay先生 为大家献上一曲吧 Please, Mr. Bombay, sing us a song.
Milton成了焦点 It's all about the limelight with Milton.
我向你保证 I promise you.
你是什么意思 认输了吗 What do you mean, lose
我们有第一修正案 We're on the side of the first amendment.
问题是校长的确有很大的决定权 The problem is, school principals do have a wide discretion,
材料也相当有感染性 and the material is arguably inflammatory.
如果他们能把材料看做是分裂性的言论 If they can classify them as disruptive speech
我不知道你最近看的是哪家新闻 plus, I don't know which newscast you've been watching recently,
但是第一修正案渐渐褪色了 but the first amendment is losing its luster lately.
有些广播公司甚至连照本宣科的 节目都要审查 Some networks are even censoring their scripted dramas.
如果没有了言论自由我们将会怎样 So what do we go with if not freedom of expression
同时 演员Vince Odoms Meanwhile, actor Vince Odoms, you know him as the judge
迈克杰克逊案件再审中的审判员 in the Michael Jackson reenactment trial,
他却突然退出 加入了被FBS视为竞争对手的广播公司 has abruptly quit to go play Phil Spector
参加娱乐节目 in the reenactment of that trial on a competing network.
FBS主席Rick Silverman威胁要起诉他 FBS president Rick Silverman is threatening to sue,
声称他还在合同期内 claiming the actor is under contract,
这将成为诉讼中的一个重要的突破口 and that it would be a material breach to walk in the middle of ongoing litigation.
与此同时 据称洛杉矶县县治安官办公室 Meanwhile, it was learned today that the Los Angeles county sheriff's office
重点是什么 So what's the point
重点吗 我们吃饭的重点 The point Of us having dinner.
重点是什么 What's the point
如果要上床我要先吃颗蓝色小药丸 If it's sexual, I'll need notice so I can take my little pill.
你邀请Tara吃饭 You asked to have dinner with Tara.
那又怎样 和她吃饭那我就不需要那片药了 What was the point of that With her, I wouldn't need a pill.
你已经描绘了美好的将来 You've talked a wonderful game about the future,
把你的遗产带到下个世纪 about wanting to perpetuate your legacy into the next century.
但是你和Tara说话的时候我注意到 But when you were talking to Tara, what I observed was
你却在回顾过去 略带寂寞 a man looking backwards, a man who, perhaps, is lonely.
你错了 You've got it wrong.
我看到了忧郁 Milton I saw Melancholy, Milton,
想要死亡的愿望里忧郁也如影随形 and Melancholy accompanied by the desire to be dead.
Milton Bombay是否在寻找途径 Is this Milton Bombay looking to check out in a way
让他头上的光环永远熠熠生辉吗 that doesn't tarnish his grand reputation
Denny认为你不想打赢这场官司 Denny thinks you don't want to win this case,
这也解释了你为什么选择他做律师 但你还选择了我 which would explain your hiring him, but you also hired me.
你失去了妻子 你的工作 You lost your wife, your job
你放弃了吗 Milton are you just giving up, Milton
我来告诉你吧 Let me tell you something.
科学和医学在发展 法律也会紧随其后 As science and medicine continue to evolve, so must the law to keep pace.
今天我以病人身份做开路先锋 I'm blazing the trail as a patient today so I can continue to set
明天我将继续为律师业制定标准 the standard as a lawyer tomorrow.
这就是我的理由 好的 That's what this is about. Okay.
Bombay先生 乐队和其他客人 Mr. Bombay, the band and some of the patrons
都想倾听您的歌声 have requested that you grace us with a song tonight.
好的 告诉他们伴奏 Yes, tell them to vamp. She's making eyes.
我马上就来 很好 谢谢 先生 I'll be right up, Walter. Excellent. Thank you, sir.
我偶然间开始相信轮回 我也相信那些已经过时的事 I happen to believe in reincarnation, and I also believe things even out.
假如我的命运已注定 Given the hand I was dealt this time,
下个回合中我将困难重重 I could be in for some serious hardships in the next go-around,
我不想这样的情况在下次生命里重复上演 and I don't want that in my next life.
我想重回原来的我 Milton Bombay I want to be me all over again, Milton Bombay.
我明白了 Got it.
