Walter, you've been busy.

You know I haven't slept since Thursday.

I was out all night cleaning up after you.

I need my sleep.

You said no half measures.
7
Yeah.

Funny how words can be so open to interpretation.
9
You get your car fixed?

Not yet.
11
You're gonna wanna get your car fixed.
12
Let's see how this goes first.
13
I'm sorry.
14
I'm getting ready. Has your condition worsened?
15
Excuse me?
16
Your medical condition.
17
Has it grown worse?
18
Not that I know of, no. Is there a ringing in your ears?
19
Are you seeing bright lights or hearing voices?
20
I'm quite well, thank you.
21
No. Clearly you are not.
22
No rational person would do as you have done.
23
Explain yourself.
24
My partner was about to get himself shot.
25
I intervened.
26
Some worthless junkie.
27
For him, you intervene and put us all at risk.
28
Some contemptible junkie who couldn't keep the peace for eight hours.
29
That's right, he couldn't.
30
He was angry because those two dealers of yours had just murdered an 11-year-old boy.
31
I heard about it.

He should have let me take care of them.
33
Maybe.
34
Then again, maybe he thought it was you who gave the order.
35
Are you asking me if I ordered the murder of a child?
36
I would never ask you that. Where is Pinkman now?

I wouldn't know.
38
A couple of time zones away, at least.
39
Beyond that, I'd only be guessing.
40
He has enough money to last forever.
41
He knows he needs to keep moving.
42
You'll never find him.
43
I don't know, Walt.
44
It's what I do, after all.
45
He's out of the picture.
46
I saved his life.
47
I owed him that.
48
But now he and I are done, which is exactly what you wanted, isn't it?
49
You've always struck me as a very pragmatic man, so if I may, I would like to review options with you, of which it seems to me you have two.
50
Option A, you kill me right here and now.
51
Apparently I have made that very easy for you.
52
You can kill me, no witnesses, and then spend the next few weeks or months tracking down Jesse Pinkman, and you kill him too.
53
A pointless exercise, it seems to me, but that is option A.
54
What is option B?
55
I continue cooking.
56
You and I both forget about Pinkman.
57
We forget this ever happened.
58
We consider this a lone hiccup in an otherwise long and fruitful business arrangement.
59
I prefer option B.
60
You'd need a new assistant.
61
I could get right on that.
62
No. This time I choose.
63
Your car.
64
Get it fixed.
65
Yeah.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
