I've always had a curious affinity for laundromats.

Perhaps it's the rose of mechanical devices dedicated to a cleaner world.

Or maybe it's the hypnotic rotation of spinning clothes on their sudsy journey to a fluffy, stain-free future.

Mmm, look at them.

Or was I?

Oh, yes, laundromats.

My Meemaw also loved them, but for an entirely different reason.

Banana, banana.

Woo!

Personally, I don't care for bananas.

It's a texture thing.

There you go.

Yeah, a big night.

Yeah.

You can just put it on my tab.

Yeah, actually, I'm gonna need you to cash out.

How come?

I'm fixing to close up for good.

What?

Why?

I'll spend more time with the grandkids.

I got grandkids too.

Why do you think I'm here so much?

So who's gonna take over this place?

Guess what?

I'm buying a laundromat.

I don't know how to react.

Is that good news?

Oh, yeah.

Laundromat.

Cool.

My meemaw began to realize the problem with running a gambling

den in the back of a laundromat was it's still connected to a laundromat.

I put five pairs of undies in here, and now there are four.

Your machine ate my undies.

There's a lost and found box right over there in the corner.

Just take all you want.

I don't want a stranger's undies.

Then let's find your precious undies.

Look how many rhinestones fell off in the dryer.

Says right here, do not tumble dry.

No label's going to tell me what to do.

I am not in the mood for Texas right now.

What do you want from me?

Well, what size is yours?

No. Finally

the fun begins.

What's going on? Are you Connie Tucker?

Well this sucks.

Not in this century.

Listen, I need you to help me with this.

I don't want to run this dump.

Then why'd you buy it?

I'm retired.

I thought it might be fun.

Get me out of the house.

And you picked a laundromat?

It seemed like a better opportunity at the moment.

What happened?

You get tricked by a con man?

No. It's alright.

Happens to a lot of people your age.

Come with me.

A secret casino room?

Yeah.

The cops shut me down.

That is so cool.

Very cool.

I got a room full of slot machines I can't turn on and a room full of washing machines I don't want.

Let's get this going again.

I can't.

I'm on their radar now. That sucks.

This is not how I saw this playing out.

Hey, you took a shot.

That's impressive.

I guess.

I mean, most folks your age have someone cutting up their food.

That's enough.

100

Well, I still think you're a badass.

101

Thank you.

102

We should probably get back out there.

103

Oh, I ain't working for you, but I'm rooting for you.

104

67 years old, scraping tipsy roll out of a clothes jar.

105

Hey!

106

What do you want?

107

I want to help you out.

108

Oh, I knew you'd come back.

109

Listen, I got most of it, but there's just one chunk in there that won't let go.

110

I'm not here to work.

111

I'm here with the answers to all your problems. And what is that?

112

How'd I get your back room up and running again?

113

I'm listening.

114

I was thinking about Chuck E.

115

Cheese.

116

Oh, God.

117

Hear me out.

118

Your payouts were in cash.

119

That's illegal.

120

When you play games at Chuck E.

121

Cheese, you win tickets.

122

Those tickets are traded for prizes.

123

That's legal.

124

You just need to do the same thing.

125

People play your machines.

126

Now the credits they win get exchanged for stuffed animals.

127

Then you buy those stuffed animals back for cash.

128

No law is broken, and you're back in business.

129

That's the stupidest thing I ever heard.

130

Why?

131

Because I don't run a carnival.

132

Grown up people don't gamble to win a teddy bear.

133

You're not getting it.

134

I'm getting it.

135

It's dumb.

136

I'm trying to help you.

137

If you really wanted to help me, you would stick your head in there and start scraping.

138

I guess I'll just sell the place.

139

If I take a bath, so be it.

140

I don't know.

141

I got a realtor friend I might be able to have.

142

You mean like your cop friend who shut me down?

143

Yeah, that wasn't great, Dale.

144

But what about Georgie's idea?

145

That dumb Chuck E.

146

Cheese thing, Dale.

147

Come on.

148

Well, actually, I think it's kind of brilliant.

149

You think that grown-ups are going to gamble for some stuffed animals?

150

Yeah, that you're buying back from them.

151

Well, a teddy bear's only worth a couple of bucks.

152

It's worth whatever you say it's worth.

153

They win a hundred bucks and it's worth a hundred bucks.

154

It seems I owe you an apology.

155

Come on in.

156

Hey there, Connie.

157

What do you want?

158

Is that any way to greet an officer of the law?

159

Sorry.

160

What do you want?

161

I hear you're back in business.

162

We're not breaking any laws.

163

People are just winning these prizes.

164

That you buy back for cash?

165

It's a gray area.

166

Look, I'm not here to argue.

167

At the risk of repeating myself, what do you want?

168

I've heard that in cash businesses such as this, that some owners can benefit by having a strong relationship with their local police department.

169

What are you getting at?

170

I'm just wondering if there's something you can do to incur goodwill.

171

Are you shaking me down?

172

No. Are you hitting on me?

173

No. Uh, I'm just saying.

174

I've heard some business owners like to invest in local law enforcement.

175

You are shaking me down.

176

It's a gray area.

177

What kind of contribution are we talking?

178

Well, it's up to you.

179

I understand that somewhere between 9 and 11% is popular.

180

10%?

181

If you insist.

182

How about three?

183

Three what?

184

Three counts of illegal gambling?

185

Three years in jail?

186

I'm paying you in quarters.

187

Since when did we start advertising gambling rooms?

188

What?

189

It's a laundromat.

190

Yeah.

191

And the massage parlor off the freeway is for stiff necks.

192

Well, that is a legitimate business.

193

My mother owns it.

194

My son works there.

195

You say so.

196

I do say so.

197

Fine.

198

It's true!

199

I'd say won a bet, but I lost 40 bucks last night at your mom's legitimate business.

200

Are you running a gambling room in the back of the laundromat?

201

What?

202

No. Peck says she was there last night.

203

Oh, gambling room.

204

Yeah.

205

What are you thinking?

206

You know gambling is illegal.

207

Why do you care how people spend their money?

208

Gambling destroys lives.

209

That's what you say about booze.

210

I think it's an excellent pairing.

211

Wait.

212

Does Georgie know about all this?

213

Um...

214

Oh my lord!

215

It's okay, I'm looking after him.

216

What if the police show up?

217

Don't you worry about them.

218

We got an understanding.

219

What does that mean?

220

I'd explain it to you, but you wouldn't understand.

221

You are unbelievable.

222

If it is bad enough for you to do all this stuff, but then to drag Georgie down into your den of sin?

223

Oh, please.

224

It's not a den of sin.

225

Although that is a great name.

226

Den of sin.

227

That would get some butts in seats.

228

Is Georgie here? here?

229

No, I think he's still at work.

230

Do you know that that laundromat is just a front for gambling?

231

Cool.

232

Missy Cooper, that was not for your ears.

233

Go to your room.

234

So what's this all about?

235

My mother is running a gambling room out of the back of the laundromat, and she has Georgie helping her.

236

He never invited me.

237

George, we have to get him out of there.

238

Mary, we told him not to drop out of school.

239

He dropped out of school.

240

I told him he couldn't have girls in the garage.

241

He has girls in the garage.

242

He does? So many.

243

Missy!

244

I'm in my room.

245

Well, close the door.

246

All the way.

247

The point is, he didn't listen to us, Danny.

248

He's not going to listen now.

249

So we do nothing?

250

We let him make his own mistakes.

251

That just sounds like another way of saying we do nothing.

252

I'm going to go down there.

253

And that's a mistake I'm going to let you make.

254

Georgie?

255

Hey, what are you doing here?

256

I know about the room in the back.

257

Do you know whether or not I know?

258

Yes.

259

OK, that's going to save us a lot of time.

260

It is not OK.

261

You are quitting right now.

262

Why would I do that?

263

Because I am your mother, and it is wrong.

264

Well, I'm working for your mother, and she says it's OK.

265

And I answer to a higher power, and he says it's also wrong.

266

So I went, let's go.

267

Mom, please don't make a big deal out of this.

268

Oh, so there is an illegal gambling room in the back, and it's no big deal.

269

There's a gambling room back then.

270

And there is a church two blocks down, so maybe try that.

271

Just go around to the alley.

272

The password is dryer sheet.

273

This is not a joke.

274

I'm worried about your soul.

275

I'm not gambling.

276

No one's getting hurt.

277

Georgie, I know you think that, but this does hurt people.

278

It's not my business what people do with their money.

279

And it ain't your business either, so butt out.

280

Ms. McAllister, we don't have any insurance information on file for you.

281

Oh, that's all right.

282

We'll be paying in cash.

283

Cash.

284

In God we trust.

285

You always carry that much cash around?

286

Do you think there's just boobs in this bra?

287

No, I mean, why?

288

Well, the laundromat's a cash business.

289

That's mostly just quarters, though, isn't it?

290

Um, yeah, but well, now we've got the video store and I'm not real big on banks.

291

Because you lived through the depression.

292

Yeah.

293

Over in this aisle, we've got your new releases.

294

Here are your action and adventures, your Stallones, your Schwarzeneggers, your Van Dams, and of course we have a whole row of chick flicks,

295

known in the movie biz as rom-coms. Do not enter.

296

What's back there?

297

Oh, that?

298

That's just some storage and a bunch of machines that rewind the tapes when people are not kind and don't rewind.

299

Very cool.

300

Hey, if you ever need any help behind the cash register, I'd sure rather be working here than being on my feet all day at the diner.

301

Mmm, no. No, you don't want to do that.

302

You're such a good waitress.

303

It'd be a waste of your talent.

304

Hey, Georgie.

305

Officer Rutledge.

306

Congratulations on your expanding business empire.

307

Thank you.

308

Very kind.

309

Hey there, Jake.

310

Hey, Connie.

311

I was just telling your grandson here how much I love the new place.

312

Mandy, let me show you the kids section.

313

Got all the Looney Tunes, Flintstones, Fraggle Rock.

314

What's going on?

315

Nothing.

316

Just figured we're having a kid, we should be familiar with the genre.

317

Well, thanks for dropping by.

318

We need to renegotiate our arrangement.

319

And we will talk about that soon.

320

Meanwhile, have some red vines.

321

Show good faith.

322

You wouldn't think it about Jake, but he just loves a foreign film.

323

Just stop it, okay?

324

I know what's going on here.

325

You do?

326

That creepy cop, that trip to Mexico, all that cash in your bra.

327

Y'all are selling drugs.

328

We're not selling drugs.

329

So you're telling me there's nothing weird going on back there?

330

Well, I didn't say that.

331

Let's take a walk.

332

Try and keep an open mind.

333

Oh my god.

334

See?

335

Not drugs.

336

And that is the sound of a 22% house advantage. Is it legal?

337

Yes.

338

Oh, kind of.

339

Kind of.

340

So the police are in on it?

341

A little bit, yeah.

342

Silent partner, as they said.

343

I know it's a lot.

344

It's amazing.

345

It is?

346

My kid's going to private school.

347

You're going to private school?

348

Okay, everybody, get away from the wind.

349

Come on.

350

Is there some place we can shelter?

351

Should we move everybody somewhere else?

352

I thought you didn't want to put you-know-who somewhere else.

353

Everybody, follow me, come on.

354

Are we all gonna fit in there?

355

Maybe God will provide a miracle.

356

What is all this?

357

A miracle!

358

I can't believe you're running a gambling room.

359

Well, it's keeping us safe right now, so maybe the Lord works in mysterious ways.

360

Ooh, that's good.

361

Or maybe he sent that storm so I could save all these souls.

362

Ooh, that's good too.

363

Well, if you're going to save our souls, we're going to have to survive.

364

How about you put in a word with your boss?

365

Right.

366

Everyone hold hands.

367

Dear Lord.

368

The thing you need to know about slot machines is that they provide the house with a 17% edge.

369

And that is a whole lot of edge for me, Mo and your daddy.

370

Huh?

371

Oh, that ain't good.

372

Excuse me.

373

I don't work here.

374

Party president, please stop running.

375

Hey Dale, what's up?

376

You're kidding.

377

Till Monday.

378

What's going on?

379

Shh.

380

What, is there anything I can do?

381

Yeah, I know a couple lawyers.

382

Who needs a lawyer?

383

Meemaw's in jail.

384

Hang up.

385

What's she in jail for?

386

I'm not sure.

387

Some kind of room got shut down.

388

Oh, the gambling room.

389

What?

390

Yeah, in the back of the laundromat.

391

Isn't that illegal?

392

Yeah.

393

That's why she's in jail.

394

She tried to run?

395

Oh, that makes me so happy.

396

If I'm to understand correctly, our Meemaw's been running a criminal enterprise.

397

Cool, huh?

398

No, it is most certainly not cool.

399

On the one hand, people need to pay for their crimes.

400

On the other, if Meemaw's in prison, who's going to smell like Ben Gay and kiss me on the head?

401

She's an old lady.

402

They're not going to lock her up forever.

403

I sure hope not.

404

Hey, Audrey.

405

Where's Mary?

406

She's a...

407

Mary!

408

Oh, hi.

409

Why do you have the baby?

410

Um, it's kind of a long story.

411

Why do you have the baby?

412

My mother was arrested.

413

She's in jail.

414

I can't get a straight answer from anybody in this family.

415

A gambling room?

416

Yes.

417

And she'd been bribing the authorities.

418

I wouldn't use that word, but there were donations made to the authorities.

419

And Georgie worked there?

420

Well, he also runs the laundromat.

421

Very legitimate.

422

For money laundering.

423

And regular laundering.

424

I can't believe this.

425

What kind of a family has my daughter married into?

426

To be clear, I did not condone any of this.

427

Doesn't matter.

428

This is a criminal environment, and I'm taking the baby.

429

Over my dead body.

430

Cece is my granddaughter too, and she is perfectly safe here.

431

Well, as long as she's here, I'm here.

432

Fine. Are you hungry?

433

I have half a bucket of spaghetti in the fridge.

434

I could eat.

435

Alright, I'll go heat it up.

436

What?

437

You think I'm going to take the baby and run?

438

Yes.

439

Would you like some garlic bread?

440

That sounds nice.

441

Thanks for coming by.

442

Yeah, what's the situation?

443

Well, right now it's kind of a standoff.

444

They're eating spaghetti and Mary's holding the baby hostage.

445

All right.

446

What's our point?

447

Well, I figured we'll be dealing with each other for the rest of our lives, so we've got to keep things settled.

448

Now I'm with you.

449

Let me start by saying you are a pleasure.

450

Oh, I'm back at you.

451

And your daughter is a keeper.

452

And your son is a fine young man.

453

Thank you.

454

So, you ready to do this?

455

I'm right behind you.

456

Hey, Mayor, look who stepped back.

457

Mmm, it's good coffee.

458

Is that Folgers?

459

Maxwell House.

460

Oh, sure, good to the last drop.

461

Audrey, am I crazier than we used to drink Maxwell House?

462

Yes.

463

Mm-hmm.

464

Hmm.

465

Why'd we change?

466

It's a mystery.

467

Speaking of mysteries, Mary, did you ever find out a earring you were looking for?

468

Family heirloom.

469

Just don't.

470

Maybe her mother stole it.

471

I'm not holding a baby anymore, so you better watch it.

472

Audrey's uncle was a bank robber.

473

Jim!

474

He's in Leavenworth.

475

He's my uncle by marriage.

476

Look, all I'm saying is every family's got secrets, right?

477

We sure got some skeletons in the closet.

478

We do not.

479

Other than my mother. And?

480

My cousin Janine is a practicing witch, but that's it.

481

Worship Satan.

482

I got you beat.

483

My brother William, he's a Democrat.

484

He voted for Mondale.

485

Oh, I'm so sorry.

486

Actually, it feels good to talk about it.

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
