Gus: Are you Shirley?

你是雪莉吗?

Shirley: Yeah, thanks for agreeing to meet me here. I’m told you’re the best sniper in thebusiness and you can be discreet. I need a hitman who can do a job, then make himselfscarce.

是啊，谢谢你同意在这儿喝我碰面。有人告诉我你是很棒的狙击手。你很谨慎。我需要一个杀手为我做件事，然后消失。

Gus: I’m your man. Tell me about it.

我听你的。告诉我需要做什么。

Shirley: There’s someone who’s been a thorn in my side, keeping me up at night, and it’s timeto take him out.

有个人一直是我的眼中钉，他晚上让我睡不着觉，是时候收拾他了。

Gus: Taking care of problems is my specialty. I’ll need a down payment now and the balancewhen I finish him off. We shouldn’t meet again, so I’ll tell you later where to make a drop.

照顾的问题，是我的特长。我需要现在首付和平衡，当我完成他送行。我们不应该满足了，所以以后我会告诉你在哪里下降。

好的。

是的，他是我邻居的狗，他让我每天晚上都睡不着觉。这不是问题吧?

你打赌要杀它。你认为我是什么人?人是可任意处理的，但狗吗?它们是人类最好的朋友。

Shirley: Are you kidding me? You won’t take the job?

你在开玩笑吧?你不会接受这份工作?

不，我不会。如果你想付很多钱去杀一条狗，那是你的特权，但我有我的标准!
