- What's the key to being a great dad?
- Ah, that's a tough one.
- Giving them the freedom to be whatever they want to be.
- Right. Exactly. - Whether that's a painter, a poet, a pilot, a president And for us, we're gonna of a company or of a country.
- Patience.
- Well, be their buddy.
- That's your answer?
- And stay in school.
- No. - And don't do drugs.
- No!
- Just give me the answer. - 0h, God.
- Still thinking.
- Hi, Claire. - Hey.
- Hey. - Oh, okay.
- Hi. Um, this is my husband, Phil.
- Hi. - And, uh, that's my son, Luke, right there.
- This is - Desiree.
- Desiree, right. Sorry. - Oh, hi.
- Desiree just moved in down the block. - Fun. Where?
- 314. - Oh!
- The two-bedroom cottage with the indoor-outdoor family room.（family room：a room in a family’s home that is used for relaxing, especially for watching television）
- Very good. How did you
- Bet you're lovin' that steam shower.
- Phil, that's creepy.
- 0h, sorry. I'm a- I'm a real estate mogul（an important person who is very rich or powerful）.
- "What?" No, I'm a- I am a real estate agent.
- We caravanned（没有查到动词形式的） that house. Great, uh, deck.
- Thanks. I'm just there till my divorce is final.
- No, who is coconuts enough to divorce you?
- We gotta（have got to） go, but we'll see you around（ used to say goodbye to someone when you have not made a definite arrangement to meet again）.
- We'll have to have you over sometime.
- I'd love it. - All right.
- Bye. - Bye.
- She's awesome. - No, we are never having her over.Heard she already slept with two dads from the school.
- What? - Mm-hmm. That's horrible.
- Dad, watch out! - Whoa! Watch it, buddy!
- Grandma. - I'm sorry.
- That still looks like a girl's bike.
- We'll add more black tape.
- My son has been riding his sister's old bike.Until he's responsible enough to take care of his own bike.
- Look, he spilled a soda on my computer,he ruined our digital camera taking pictures of himself underwater.It's a girl's bike. I'm all for （totally agree）teaching him a lesson. But I worry about the ridicule（ make fun of sb in an unkind way.） he might get from some loudmouth （someone who talks too much and says offensive or stupid things）bully（someone who uses their strength or power to frighten or hurtsomeone who is weaker）.
- Hey, hey, hey. Nice bike, Sally（an intelligent remark that is intended to amuse people）.
- Dad!
- Come on. He looks like Little Bo Peep on that thing.
- Actually, not for long. He's getting a new bike this afternoon.
- I am? - Mm-hmm.
- He is?
- Sometimes a man's gotta put his foot down ( to say very firmly that someone must do something or must stop doing something)and do what a man's gotta do.And if the old lady （someone’s wife）don't like it.
- Honey?
- That's too damn bad.
- Dad, this is the coolest bike ever. - Awesome.
- Yes. Who's excited, huh?
- So, listen, buddy. Certain members of this family don't think you can take care of this bad boy.
- You mean Mom? - Your words, not mine.
- Look, uh, your mom and I are a team,and she- we feel like this is a chance for you to show some responsibility.Don't make us look like jerks here.
- I won't. - Okay.
- One more rule. - What?
- Have, like, three butt-loads of fun.
- Thanks, Dad.
场景：卢克骑着新买的自行车在小区内四处转悠，还不到十分钟菲尔就看到有一辆和卢克一模一样的自行车没有上锁停在路边，他感慨这孩子的确是没有责任心。菲尔决定给卢克一个教训，他把这辆自行车偷偷的骑走了。经过德希蕾家门口，德希蕾把钥匙掉在了家里跑出来找人求助。菲尔就把自行车停在德希蕾家门口，进去帮德希蕾拿钥匙。事情办完菲尔跑出来一看，自行车却不见了，他只好又到商店里重新买了一辆自行车。
- Ten minutes after making a promise to me, he leaves his bike unlocked.All I can hear is Claire's voice in my head "He's not responsible. You never should have given him a bike." I know. I do a pretty good Claire.So I decided to teach him a lesson...and let him think his bike was stolen.And I know that sounds kind of rough, but sometimes it's a dad's job to be the tough（very strict or firm） guy.
- Oh, hey. - Hey! Hi.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Uh, this is really embarrassing,but I locked myself out of my house.
- Oh! Pssh! I do that all the time. Don't be embarrassed.
- I was- I was hoping you could help me.There's a window open, but I can't reach it.Would you mind?
- Yeah. Yeah. Sure. - Great.
- of course. You know what they say
- "Every time God closes a door, he opens a window."
- or I guess in this case, every time he locks you out.
- Okay, what do we got here?
- I mean, am I attracted to her? Yes.
- Would I ever act on it? No. No way.Not while my wife is still alive.
- Are you sure I can't get you something to drink?
- Yeah. No, I'm- I'm fine. Really.
- If I knew a man was gonna climb into my bedroom window, I would have cleaned up a bit.
- Are you kidding me? It smelled great in there.Like lotions and oils...for... dry skin and, you know, calloused(hands are rough made by hardwork) hands.
- Yeah, it's a candle.
- Uh-oh. - What's wrong?
- The bike's gone. - Oh, no.
- Can I help you find it? - That's all right. Thank you.
- Okay. Thank you!
- So, to teach him a lesson, I took （用法）his bike,and then- crazy thing I put it down for one minute, and someone swiped（steal sth） it from me.
- Maybe that was your dad teaching you a lesson.
- Zinger.
- So, any chance I could, uh, get a break（a sudden, large fall in market prices, especially the price of shares on a stockmarket） on this one?
- I can throw in （ to add something to what you are selling, without increasing the price）a bell. - Deal.
- For five dollars. - No, sir.
- So, you wanna go for the insurance this time,or is it still for suckers（someone who is easily tricked or persuaded to do something）?
- Got me again.Well played, milord.I will take some insurance. Thank you.
场景：回到家中，菲尔问卢克今天做了什么错事，卢克说他把自行车刮了一点皮。确认卢克的自行车的确是停在车库里，菲尔这才知道自己拿了别人的自行车。为了不让克莱尔知道这件事情，他赶快把新买的自行车放在汽车后面想把它还回去。谁知他的一切行动早已被克莱尔看见。这时德希蕾推着自行车过来，她说菲尔在她卧室里的时候邻居帮她把自行车停在车库了。菲尔哭笑不得，尴尬极了。
- You blew it. You made me look bad. No, you made your mother and I look bad. We are a team. Luke, you in there?
- Hey, Dad.
- Hey. Hey, buddy.That was, uh- That was pretty fun today, huh? Getting a new bike.
- Yeah, it was awesome.
- So, uh, what happened after I took off（to leave in a hurry）?Anything you want to share with me?
- Not really（used to say ‘no’ or ‘not’ in a less strong way）.
- So, if I, uh, went out to the garage,took a picture for a scrapbook（a book with empty pages where you can stick pictures, newspaper articles, or other things you want to keep）, there'd be no surprises?
- I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it. I just made a mistake.
- Yeah, a big mistake! You're making me look really bad here. I told Mom you were ready for this.
- It's just a scratch（to make a small cut or mark on something by pulling something sharp across it）, Dad.
- That's not the point, Luke! What?
- I scratched it on my way into the driveway（the hard area or road between your house and the street）. I'm sorry.
- So, it's not stolen?
- No. Why?
- That's good,'cause... there are bad people out there who would steal a bike.Those are thieves.You sit there and think about the scratch part.That's not good either. I gotta fix that step. So don't scratch anything while I'm gone, unless it itches. That's different.
- The good news is, Luke has his bike. More good news I taught some random kid a valuable lesson by stealing his bike.Best news- Claire knows nothing. So, I figure I'll just dump （to put something somewhere in a careless untidy way）the new bike where I stole the first bike. That way, random kid gets his back, and this new bike doesn't raise a lot of embarrassing questions... like why I had it or who boosted ((also boost up) to help someone reach a higher place by lifting or pushing them)who through a bedroom window.So, everybody's happy.
- I mean, I don't understand.
- Why are you trying to sneak around and hide things from me? I actually think it's pretty funny.
- You do?
- I do. Yes.
- I mean, you steal (to go somewhere secretly and quietly in order to avoid being seen or heard SYN creep）a bike from some poor kid,and then the bike gets stolen from you. It's hilarious.
- Classic me, right? - Yeah!
- So, where were you when it got stolen?
- Oh, I was getting some gas.
- Uh-huh. You don't stand near the car when you get gas?
- Yep, but, uh, I went inside to get a soda because I was thirsty, and if I had a soda, I wouldn't be thirsty anymore. So I bought one, then I drank it all right there, which is why I don't have the can.
- Well, honey, please, let's try to remember that I'm your wife, not your mom.So in the future, you don't need to hide things from me. Okay?
- 0kay. - Okay.
- 0kay. - Oh! Oh, yeah.
- You get back here, you! - What are you doing, Phil?
- I just love ya so darn much!
- I know. I love you too, but that hurts. - Let's get you inside.
- Hi. - I know. That's hurting a lot.
- This is a hot one. - Hello! Hi there!
- Hi again. - Oh, hi.
- I, uh, found your bike.
- Oh, good! You
- At the gas station? - No, at my house.
- One of my neighbors saw it and put it in my garage when you were in my bedroom, so
- Classic me?
