"Oh, no," Tom said as he motioned for his girlfriend to come over so that they could change hands with the items they were trying to steal.
噢，沒有。湯姆說，他示意女朋友趕快過來，這樣他們就可以把他們想偷的東西轉手拿走。
The situation then took a change for the worse when he dropped the radio.
當他把收音機掉到地上的時候，形式開始向壞的方面變化了。
"Whoops!" he said. "I dropped my raido."
“哎喲！”他叫道。“我的收音機掉了。”
As he bent down to pick it up, however, the lady checked him over with her eyes.
但是，在他彎腰去撿的時候，那位女士用眼睛打量了他一下。
She saw something bulging out of his pocket.

"Can I buy that candy too?"

"Don't change the subject!
別改變話題！
If that's our radio, I'm going to have you charged for theft!"

Here, I'll pay for that too!"

As he looked over to check with his girlfriend he saw her nod toward his backside.
在他望過去與女朋友聯系時，他發現她現在朝他的背面點頭。
"And I want to buy this, too! he said as he pulled out a CD and put it on the counter.
