C=Charley Brown L=Lucy
L:Charley Brown,what brings you out here so late in the day?
C:Oh, I need your advice on girls, Lucy. You’re a girl, right? Let’s just say there this girl I’d like to impress. but she’s something, and I’m nothing. If I were something and she was nothing, I could talk to her. Or, if she was nothing and I was nothing, I could talk to her. But she’s something, and I’m nothing, so I just can’t talk to her.
L:You’re being ridiculous, Charley Brown. Why, you have much to offer.
C:She has pretty face, and pretty faces make me nervous.
L:Pretty face! Pretty face! I have a pretty face! How come my pretty face doesn’t make you nervous. How come you can talk to me, Charley Brown?
C:I just need to know the secret to winning her heart.
L:Look into this mirror, Charley Brown. This is a face of failure. A classic failure face. Do you think girls like failure, Charley Brown?
C:Well, no.
L:Girls want someone with proven success. Have you won any awards? Like a Congressional Medal of Honor? Or a Nobel Peace Prize? What are you real estate holdings? Do you have a diversified portfolio? Let me let you in on a little secret, Charley Brown. If you really want to impress girls, you need to show them you’re a wining.
C:A winning? Me? Lucy, you maybe on to something.
L:Of course, when I say “You”. You know I don’t mean you personally. That would be five cents, please. Ah~ Nickles,nickles,nickles. What a beautiful sound.

L:查理 布朗,你怎么这么晚才来这里?
C:我需要我关于女孩的建议,露西。你是个女孩,对吧?假设有这么个女孩,我想给她留个好印象,但她很棒而我什么都不是。如果我很棒而她什么都不是的话,我就可以和她说话了。或者她和我都什么都不是的话,我也可以和她说话。但是她很棒而我什么都不是,所以我不能和她说话。
L:你太荒谬了,查理 布朗.为什么,你优点也很多啊。
C:她的脸很好看,好看的脸让我紧张。
L:脸好看!脸好看!我的脸也很好看啊。为什么我的脸就不能让你紧张呢?你怎么能这么和我说话呢,查理 布朗?
C:我只是需要赢得她芳心的秘密。
L:看看这面镜子,查理 布朗。这是张失败的脸,典型的失败的脸。你觉得女孩们喜欢失败吗,查理 布朗?
C:额,不喜欢。
L:女孩们喜欢那些成功人士。你赢过什么奖吗?比如说国会荣誉勋章或者诺贝尔和平奖啦?你有房产吗?你有多元化投资组合吗?让我告诉你个小秘密吧,查理 布朗。如果你真想给女孩留下好印象,你需要向他们展示你是成功者的形象。
C:成功者?我?
L:露西,你大概说对了。当然,当我说你的时候,你知道我指的不是你个人。这次咨询五分钱。啊~五分钱 五分钱 五分钱,多么美妙的声音。
