Jack: Just keep looking straight ahead. He called you a wildcat before. I didn't even pick up on it. The bastard's got a camera right in your face. He can see the whole bus. He's been playing me from minute one.
Annie: Yeah. Well, he can see me, but can he hear me?
Jack: It doesn't look like it. He's just watching you.
Man on TV: This is a special news bulletin. We are following the progress of what is turning out to be a harrowing and amazing story as a city bus, rigged to explode if it slows down, races around literally in circles at the Los Angeles airport. The two dead are a female passenger and the driver of another bus, both blown up by the bomber. The other people in jeopardy are the passengers of the bus held hostage at the whim of a madman.
Howard Payne: "The whim of a madman." I like that.
Jack: There's a camera on the bus just over my left shoulder. I want you to stare straight ahead. Don't make any big movements. Okay? It's Jack. Yeah, I know about Harry. Is that news van still around?
Mac: Get those cameras to stop taping.
Norwood: Right.
Mac: L.A.P.D. I need this unit. You can broadcast U.H.F., right?
Man1: Yeah, sure.
Mac: There's a signal going to that bus. I want you to find it.
Norwood: We're gonna have to take you off the air temporarily.
Man2: Please, sir, stop taping.
Mac: Come on. Come on. Hurry up. Good! Tape off of that.
Jack: Remember, no big movements. Just look whipped.
Man3: That ain't gonna be too hard.
Mac: Tape it. Good. Come on, tape it!
Man1: It's taping!
Annie: Jack.
Jack: Yeah.
Annie: Look.
Jack: Mac. Fuel
Mac: Yeah. Jack, five minutes.
Jack: Not enough time. Run the tape. We have to unload.
Mac: I only have a minute of tape.
Jack: Do it now!
Mac: I want you to make a tape and loop it so that it runs over and over. OK? right, run it. Run it!
Man1: All right. Tape's rolling.
Woman on TV: We still have nolive picture, but reports are that the bus continues to circle inside L.A. X and that everyone is safe for the moment. Hard to imagine what's going through their thoughts at this time. Certainly, a sense of community
Mac: Rig the steering wheel and the gas pedal. All right, let's get 'em off. Just step and walk.
妙语佳句,活学活用
1. pick up on
这是个很口语的讲法,意思是“become aware or cognizant of; be perceptive about; notice 意识到,认识到,注意到”,比如:The teacher picked up on her nervousness right away. 老师意识到她很紧张。
2. He's been playing me from minute one.
“他从一开始就在耍我”。这里的play表示“玩弄,作弄”,from minute one 应该是 from the first minute。
