(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

Costello: Do you know who I am?

Billy: No.

Costello: You met my friend Mr. French the other night.

Billy: Is his real name Mr. French?

Costello: No. Come with me. I'm not the cops. Not asking you. You know something? They just do not stop having the Maffia in Providence¹! And this can cause me a lot of problems. Those guys you tuned³ up, they're connected down Providence. What they're gonna do is come back with some guys and kill you. Which - as sure as you were born - they will do. Unless I stop them. Do you want me to stop 'em?

Billy: Is this something I can't do personally?

Costello: I'm gonna have my associate search you.

Billy: No! No one's fuckin' searchin' me. Searchin' me for what?

Costello: Contra-fuckin-band. Take your shoes off!

French: Shoes.

Costello: I knew your father.

Billy: Yeah? Do you know he's dead?

Costello: Oh sorry. How did he go?

Billy: He didn't complain.

Costello: Yeah, that was his problem.

Billy: Who said he had a problem?

Costello: I just said he had a fuckin' problem. He was a man who could have been anything.

Billy: Are you trying to say that he was nothing?

Costello: I'm sayin' he worked at the airport.

French: He's clean.

Costello: Arm.

French: Yeah. Come on.

Costello: What fuckin' arm.

French: Show me your arm. Flip⁴ it.

Costello: Makes me curious to see you in this neighborhood.

French: He's clean.

Costello: And if I can slander⁵ my own environment. It makes me sad, this regression. Plus I don't know if it is beyond some fuckin' cop prick⁶ like Queenan to pull you out of the Staties and send you after me. I just can't know. I don't know what they do in that particular department anyway. Are you still a cop?

Billy: No! No!

Costello: Swear on your mother's grave! You're still not a cop?

Billy: No, I'm not a fuckin' cop! No!

Costello: Are you gonna stop doing coke deals with your jerk-off fuckin' cousin?

Billy: Yes, yes, yes!

Costello: All right, all right, all right. You're ok, you'll be ok. Get your hand taken care of. I'm sorry. It was necessary.

妙语佳句，活学活用

1. Tune² up

Tune up 的本意是"调音，调整，调节"，这里引申为"惹到，教训"。

2. Clean

Clean 在这里是个俚语，指的是"没有携带隐藏起来的武器的"。作为俚语用时，它还可以表示"没有携带隐藏的毒品的；无罪的；没有毒瘾的"。

3. Coke

我们常常听到老美把可乐叫成coke，但这里的coke 可不是"可乐"的意思，它表示的是毒品的一种：可卡因（呈白色晶体状，兴奋作用强）。其它常见毒品的俚语表达有：

crack: 快克（一种经过高度化学提纯的可卡因药丸，通过玻璃烟管吸取，很容易使人上瘾）
