Rachel: So like, you guys all have jobs. 那,看起来你们都有工作。 Monica: Yeah. We all have jobs. So that‘s how we buy ,我们都有工作。这样我们才有钱买东西。Joey: Yes, I am an actor. 没错,我是演员。Rachel: Wow! Would I have seen you in anything? 哇!我会在哪里看过你的演出吗?Joey: I doubt it. Mostly regional work. 不大可能。大部分都是地方上的演出。Monica: Oh wait, wait, unless you happened to catch the Rerun‘s production of hio. 哦,等等,除非你恰巧看过瑞隆剧团的《木偶奇遇记》。Chandler: “Look, Geppetto, I‘m a real live boy.”“看,吉佩多,我是个活生生的男孩了。”Joey: I will not take this abuse. 别这样羞辱我。Chandler:You are right. I am sorry, (sing)"Once I was a wooden boy, a little wooden boy." 说得对。对不起。“我曾经是一个木偶,一个小木偶。”hio和Geppetto 从小耳熟能详的《木偶奇遇记》,hio,这也是“小木偶”的名字,而造出它的老木匠则叫做Geppetto。当小木偶经历种种冒险,最终变成一个真人,他就兴奋地跟老木匠说:Look, Geppetto, I'm a real live boy. 这里Chandler就是故意拿这句话讽刺Joey一个大男人,演的却是小木偶,可见他根本没什么演艺代表作品。Carol: Ross, You‘re not actually suggesting Helen Willick-Bunch-Geller?

He always gets his way in the end. 我知道。他总是为所欲为。?Phoebe: I brought you alphabet soup. 我带了字母汤给你。?lizzie: Did you pick out the vowel? 你把元音挑出来吗??Phoebe: Yes. But left in the Ys. "Cause, you know, sometimes y." 是。但我留下了Y。因为,你知道嘛,Y偶尔是元音。?喝碗字母汤吧!“字母汤”alphabet soup是一种罐头汤,里面是切成ABC字母图案的细面条,让小朋友边喝汤边把里面的字母排成单词来玩。而美国儿音背诵元音的口诀是:A, E, I, O, U, sometimes Y. 字母Y是半元音,有时候会当辅音使用,所以Phoebe觉得它不全然算元音,就保留在汤里了,并特意还强调sometimes : Monica, I'm telling you, this guy is perfect for you. 莫妮卡我告诉你。这个家伙非常适合你。Monica: Forget it.
