Stephanie: Yeah, you'd think that. Look, she's not coming to the party, and that's all there's to it!

史蒂芬妮：是的，你会这么想。听着，她不来参加聚会了，就这么回事！

Jeff: Why not? You two used to be so close. What happened?

杰夫：哦。那我想我不该告诉她她那时可以来。

Stephanie: You did what? Over my dead body!

斯蒂芬妮：你做了啥！除非我死掉！

Jeff: Come on, Steph! Don't you think you're being a bit unreasonable²? I mean, we're all adults here. Surely³ we can work this out.

杰夫：来吧，斯蒂芬！你不觉得你有点不讲理吗？我是说，我们都是成年人。我们一定能解决这个问题。
