(注:卢克从狱警朵恩的办公室回到牢间)
【杰森】:Did you get the lesson sorted[1] or do you need me to fix[2] it for you?
【卢克】:Yep[3], I've landed[4] myself a Latin A-level. And for the record[5], I never, ever need your help with anything[6].
(注:卢克边说边走到床边坐了下来)
【杰森】:Well, if you need my help with anything, it would be the least I can do to make things up[7] to you.
【卢克】:There's nothing you can do to make up for[8] getting me sent here.
【杰森】:No, I meant to make up for the wet patch[9] on your bed.
(注:听到杰森的话,卢克腾地一下子从床边站了起来)
【卢克】:Really? Oh, why, Jason?!
【杰森】:Change of scenery[10]. We all need a holiday w**k sometimes.
【卢克】:It's not a thing[11]. Why's everybody trying to ruin my life?
【杰森】:Hey, turn that frown[12] o-o-off! You're getting A-level. That's equivalent of, like, two CregTECs. Knowledge is power in here, bruv. No-one's going to fuck with you now.
(注:杰森和卢克说和之际,狱霸马塞尔和黑头达兹突然走进牢间,黑头达兹箭步向前一把扼住卢克的脖领)
【狱霸马塞尔】You're a dead man![13]
【杰森】:What have I done?
【狱霸马塞尔】:Not you, Stumphead!
(注:卢克的脖子由于被黑头达兹扼住了,所以说话有些变音)
【卢克】:Good afternoon, gentlemen. To[14] what do I owe[14] this murder?
【狱霸马塞尔】:I keep thinking about the ending of the book. It doesn't make sense[15].
【卢克】:Really? In what way?
【狱霸马塞尔】:We never found out what happened to Bella's baby.
【卢克】:Oh, well, the baby...
【狱霸马塞尔】:Or Bella. Or Edward. Or Jacob.
【卢克】:Brilliant, wasn't it? The way it was left deliciously[16] open... for the reader to draw his or her own conclusions[17].
【狱霸马塞尔】:Are you trying to tell me that Bella falls in love with[18] her own baby, and then has a baby with her own baby and that baby becomes the overlord[19] of the entire universe? But then it dies in a horrific[20] speedboat[21] accident.
【卢克】:I think that was very much implied[22].
【狱霸马塞尔】:Fucking told you guys! Apologise to the shitty dwarf.
【黑头达兹】:I'm s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s...
(注:由于黑头达兹有口吃,说话费劲,且边说便扼紧卢克的脖子,卢克见状只好赶快通过黑头达兹扼紧的手,憋着劲从嗓子发出声来)
【卢克】:Sorry...?
【杰森】:Don't complete their sentences, bruv. It's bad for their self-esteem[23].
【狱霸马塞尔】:You can let go of[24] him now. Laters[25], Dick Squad[26].
(注:狱霸马塞尔说完,便和黑头达兹走出了房间。杰森用双手模仿机枪的样子,向他们背后做扫射态,并发出尖叫。卢克看到自己在狱中的种种遭遇,一切都是因杰森的恶作剧所致,便气上心头)
【卢克】:And what's this?!
(注:杰森模仿机器人的声音和动作,回答卢克的问话)
【杰森】:I'm Robo-Linda. I'm a brilliant idea.
