绝望主妇 | 精讲第53期: 男性本色

S01E11

Scene 1

Lynette: "Good morning." 
Claire: "Good morning." 
Lynette: "Want some coffee?" 
Claire: "Uh, yeah, thanks! I didn't want to come down until Tom left for work. Still a little embarrassed." 
Lynette: "About what?" 
Claire: "Oh, he didn't tell you? Well, actually, it's kind of funny. Um, I was doing some laundry, and I noticed that the robe I was wearing had some baby food on it, so I threw it in, figuring I could dash upstairs while everyone was asleep. And then I ran into Tom, while I was totally naked." 
Lynette: "So, Claire, when did this incident occur?"

Claire: "I don't know. It was pretty late. I think he might have come down to make coffee or something." 

Lynette: "You don't say."

Scene 2

Lynette: "That sales girl that sold us the water heater - she had a cute figure."

Tom: "Yeah, I guess. I didn't notice." 
Lynette: "Oh, how can you say, she was so your type, big breasts, really curvy." 
Tom: "What are you doing?" 
Lynette: "Nothing. I'm just saying you prefer women that are really curvy, like that sales girl or Claire." 
Tom: "There's only one type that I prefer." (He kisses her cheek.) "You." 
Lynette: "Aww....You kiss as though that would end this conversation, and it so won't."

Tom: "Why am I trouble, I haven't done anything wrong." 
Lynette: "The only reason you made love to me the other night was because you had just seen Claire naked." 
Tom: "Wha-? Aw, crap."
(Later, in the van, Tom and Lynette continue the conversation. Lynette is driving.) 
Tom: "Claire is a great nanny. It would be stupid to lose her over something like this." 
Lynette: "You and I have had crushes before. We always tell each other. We laugh about it. It's no big deal. What worries me about this is you're denying you're obviously attracted. Why?" 
Tom: "I'm not denying anything." 
Lynette: "Oh, so you are attracted to her." 
Tom: "I didn't say that."
(Lynette puts on the brakes and suddenly stops the van. They are blocking the line of cars wanting to leave the parking garage of the mall.) 
Tom: "What are you doing?" 
Lynette: "We are not going anywhere until you confess you have the hots for our nanny. Tom, it's okay. She's attractive. Men by nature are drawn to fertile young women with whom them can plant their seed. It's the basic flaw of your gender. I get it. ”

Tom: "Lynette. Claire is attractive, yes. But I am not attracted to her. Look, if I thought for even a second that there was any danger in having Claire around, I'd be the first to get rid of her. It's you! You're the one! You always have been and you always will be."
