绝望主妇 | 精讲第57期: 玩枪的女人很性感

S01E12

Scene 1

Bree: "I was so afraid when I suggested a picnic, that you'd make fun of me, but I just think it's such a lovely, old-fashioned way to spend an afternoon." 
George: "Well, as it happens, I'm an old-fashioned kind of guy." 
Bree: "Oh, and we got so lucky with the weather, it's just absolutely - You know, your lunch hour is almost up. We should probably be getting you back to the pharmacy."

George: "Wait. I've had such a good time, these last few days, I just want to show my appreciation."

Bree: "Another gift? I hope it's not another orchid, they're so expensive." 
George: "Relax, this didn't cost me a dime."
Bree: "George, you shouldn't have."

Bree: "This is a 9-mm Luger PO8!" 
George: "The moment you said you were in the NRA, I knew I wanted to give it to you." 
Bree: "I can't accept this, George! This is an antique. It's too valuable." 
George: "It's okay. My grandfather gave it to me. It was surrendered to him by a soldier during World War II. Since I don't know how to shoot..."

Bree: "It's so lovely. I mean, look at the handle. Is that mother of pearl?" 
George: "I think so. Only the officer's models had that. Do you really like it?" 
Bree: "Oh, absolutely. George, this is just so much better than an orchid."

George: "I love this. It's like a little adventure. I've never fired a gun before." 
Bree: "The memory of this night will stay with you forever." 
George: "Really?" 
Bree: "Oh, yeah. You always remember your first time. God, I hope I brought enough bullets." 
George: "You know, Bree, I can't tell you what these past few days have meant to me, finally getting out of the house and trying new things." 
Bree: "Well, we sure have had some fun." 
George: "No, no, it's, it's more than that. I'm starting to forget what it feels like to be lonely." 
Bree: "Oh, George, that's so sweet. Now come on, let's go shoot something!"

Bree: "Now before I fire a handgun, I like to go over a few of the basics just to make sure I'm ready. Okay? So, number one, a strong stance. Two, high hand grasp. Three, hard grip. Four, front sight. Five, release the safety, and then squeeze the trigger slowly."

George: "What's a high hand grasp?" 
Bree: "Here. Take the gun."
Bree: "Okay. Now when you're firing a semi-automatic, you want the web of your hand all the way up against the edge of the back strap."

George: "What is that perfume you're wearing?" 
Bree: "Uh, I'm not wearing perfume." 
George: "Are you sure? Because you smell amazing?" 
Bree: "Oh, I was making macaroons before I left the house." 
Bree: "Okay, now I want you to hold the gun like you're holding a beautiful white dove. Hold it firmly enough that it can't get away, but not so firmly that you can kill it. Got it?" 
George (grinning): "I think so." 
Bree:" Okay, now all you have to do is take a deep breath..."
(George turns his head, looking at Bree, Bree is looking at the gun.) 
Bree: "...and squeeze the trigger."
