Jean-Paul: What’s going on? I thought it was a done deal.
讓-保羅：怎么回事？我以為咱們已經說好了。
Charlene: I think you misunderstood. The last time we talked, I said I would think about partnering up, but now that I have, I’m going to beg off.
沙琳：我想你誤會了。我們上次談的時候，我說會考慮合作，但是既然我有合作對象，我打算推辭掉。
Jean-Paul: What you said was that you were agreeable to the idea and that we would work out the details later. Now you’re backtracking?
讓-保羅：上次你說的是贊成這一提議，并且之后再討論細節問題。現在你卻要食言？
Charlene: I would never renege on a promise. If I gave my word, I would follow through. In this case, I didn’t.
沙琳：我絕不會違背承諾。如果我應允的話，我就一定會堅持到底。而這件事，我并沒有答應。
Jean-Paul: I’m really surprised by your denial. I didn’t have you pegged as someone who backs out of deals.
讓-保羅：你突然變卦真是讓我措手不及。我真沒想到你會打退堂鼓。
Charlene: All I can say is that we don’t see eye to eye. Let’s agree to disagree and leave it at that.
沙琳：我只能告訴你我們的想法不一致。咱們各自保留意見，別再爭論了。
Jean-Paul: That’s easy for you to say. Your failure to honor your promise is going to put me in a very awkward position.
讓-保羅：你說的輕巧。你的反悔已經置我于極其尷尬的境地。
Charlene: How’s that? We only spoke yesterday.
沙琳：為什么這么說？我們昨天才剛討論。
Jean-Paul: I may have made some promises of my own and now I’ll have to get out of them somehow.
讓-保羅：我已經許下承諾，而現在我卻要反悔。
Charlene: May I make a suggestion?
沙琳：我能表達一下我的建議嗎？
Jean-Paul: What? Deny, deny, deny?
讓-保羅：什么建議？否認，否認，再否認嗎？
Charlene: Well, it’s worked for me.
沙琳：反正，這招對我來說很管用。
Jean-Paul: Oh, the nerve of some people!
讓-保羅：哦，有些人真是卑鄙！
