Lynette:I don't know why I have to get dragged into this.What happened with my kids has nothing to do with Bree's situation with Andrew.Sit.

我不知道我怎么被扯进来的。布里怎么对我的孩子跟她怎么对安德鲁没有关系。坐。

Bormanis:Well,it's my understanding that real harm could have come to your children as a direct result of your friend's behavior.

据我所知,你孩子有可能受到严重的伤害,这是你朋友的不当行为的直接后果。

Lynette:I'm sorry,Mr. Bormanis,but I'm not gonna testify.It just doesn't feel right to me.

对不起,伯曼尼斯先生,我不会作证的。我觉得这实在很别扭。

Bormanis:Well,this isn't the first time someone's felt the way you do.So this isn't the first time I've had to say that if you refuse to give a deposition of your own accord,I'll compel you to give one. But I'm sure I won't have to.

好的,你不是第一个有这种感觉的人。所以这也不是我第一次说,如果你不自愿作证,我只好采取强制措施。但我想我没这个必要。

Lynette:You're saying Bree did this?

你是说,这是布里干的?

Bormanis:While under the influence.I understand your reluctance to turn on a friend,but this isn't about you.It's about Andrew.Don't you think he's suffered enough?

在酒精的影响下,我知道你不愿背叛朋友。但这不仅仅是你的事。事关安德鲁,你认为他还没有受够吗?

Gabrielle:Oh,Bree could never have done that!

布里怎么会做这种事。

Lynette:I'm just telling you what the lawyer said.

我只是告诉你律师说的话。

Gabrielle:So you think Bree punched Andrew in the face?'Cause I don't.

你认为布里会把安德鲁的脸打成这样吗?我不认为这样。

Lynette:I don't either,but on the other hand,she spanked my kids,she lied about her drinking and I once saw her bitch slap her mother-in-law.So I'm torn.

我也不这样认为。但是另一方面,她打过我的孩子,她对喝酒的事撒了谎。有一次我还看见她扇婆婆耳光。所以我很苦恼。

Gabrielle:Well,I'm siding with Bree.

好的,我还是站在布里那边。

Lynette:How can you be so sure?We have Andrew saying that it's systematic physical abuse.And then we have Bree saying it's Andrew wanting to be emancipated so he can get at his trust fund so he can buy a car.How are we supposed to know the real truth?

你怎么这么确定呢?安德鲁控诉她长期对自己施行体罚虐待。但布里又说是因为安德鲁想独立,那样就可以用信托基金买车,你怎么辨别谁说的是真的?

Gabrielle:Because I remember being 17.And I would've done a hell of a lot more than punch myself in the eye to get a car.

因为我记得自己17岁的时候,为了一辆车,我可以做比用拳头打自己的眼睛过分的多的事儿。
