Fran: "Hi. I'm here to see Lynette Scavo."
嗨，我找勒奈特.斯加沃。
Lynette: "Oh, hi. Excuse me. Hi. I'm Lynette. You must be Fran."
嗨，不好意思。嗨，我是勒奈特，你就是富兰吧。
Fran: "Yeah, hi. Ed said you needed to talk to me. I couldn't imagine about what."
嗨，埃德说你要找我谈谈。不知道你想跟我谈什么。
Lynette: "Oh, well, come on in my office."
先到我 办公室来吧。
Fran: "You want me to put my daughter in day care? But I'm a stay-at-home mom."
你想让我把女儿送到日托中心吗？可我是个全职妈妈呀。
Lynette: "I'm not suggesting that you sign her up for all day. Maybe just a couple of hours in the afternoon. Wouldn't that be great? Have some time to yourself, relax, unwind?"
我不是建议你把她全托在这儿。也许就下午几小时而已。这样不是很好吗？给自己留出时间放松，解脱一下。
Fran: "I don't need to unwind. I love taking care of little Mindy."
我不需要解脱，我喜欢照看我的小敏迪。
Lynette: "Oh, of course, of course, but we all have days when we're starting to lose it. Wouldn't it be nice to have some place to take her before you want to strangle her?"
那是当然了。但我们总有厌倦的一天，在你想捏死她之前，找个地方照看她，岂不是更好？
Fran: "I cherish every moment I spend with her, truly."
我很珍惜和她呆在一起的每时每刻。
Lynette: "Really? Yeah. Look, I'm gonna level with you. Parcher and Murphy can't have a day care center unless we have at least sixteen kids and without little Mindy, we only have fifteen."
是吗？对，我跟你实话实说吧。如果不能凑够16个孩子，帕切尔&墨菲就无法设立日托中心。所以如果没有小敏迪，我们就15缺一了。
Fran: "Well, that's not my problem."
那就不是我的问题了。
Lynette: "Okay. Okay. I just thought I'd give it a shot."
好吧，我就是想，总得试试吧。
Fran: "Well, I wish I could help you, but I can't."
我真希望能帮到你，不过爱莫能助。
Lynette: "Okay."
好吧。
