Joe: Maybe you'll get another chance at the statue.

Mary: I don't think so. Did you ever go and look at your stamp?

Joe: And let them ruin my life? Forget it!

Mary: But you've been looking for that stamp for years.

Joe: It's not worth it. Besides, I have to save up to pay for some bills.

Mary: Bummer. I guess we're both out of luck.

Joe: Yeah. Well, I'll see you this weekend.

乔︰或许你还有别的机会得到这尊佛像。

玛丽︰我不这么认为。那你有去看看你的邮票吗?

乔︰然后让他们毁了我的生活吗?算了吧!

玛丽︰但是你已经找那张邮票好几年了。

乔︰不值得的。此外，我还得存钱去付一些账单。

玛丽︰真衰。我想我俩都与幸运无缘。

乔︰是啊。那么我们就周末见了。
