6. Detective: "Mr. Young, sometimes evil drives a mini van. I had this gig once, tracking down this PTA mom, was hell-bent on landing her daughter a spot on the parade float. Fed anti-freeze to half the homecoming committee."
这句话中的生词不少，而且俚语又多，还是来分析下。Van: 有篷货车 gig:原意是旋转物，乘轻便双轮马车，其实这里是a person of odd or grotesque（奇形怪状的人(或物、图案等)） appearance，明白了吧。Detective是想说他曾经碰到过的一件奇怪的案例。hell-bent：固执的，拼命的。Parade：游行
float：花车 Fed: [美俚]联邦调查局人员 PTA: Parent-Teacher Asociation ,家庭教师协会.
7. Tom: Listen, I have come up with this killer idea for the Spotless Scrub campaign."
Come up with: to produce especially in dealing with a problem or challenge 想出，提出针对一个问题或挑战的方法。 Killer:这里不是凶手的意思，而是极好，极其完美的意思。
8. Tom: "Well, that's the thing. You know how whenever I pitch in the boardroom at work, how Kennesey always tears my ideas down in front of the partners?"
pitch:原意是投, 掷 这里解释为提出某人建议。Boardroom：会议室 board还有董事会的意思
tear down：逐条驳斥
9. Lynette: "You think? How am I supposed to pull off a formal dinner with no warning?"
pull off：accomplish successfully against odds努力实现
10. Julie: "All right, but no later. You know how I worry. So, you, uh, got protection?"
这里的protection Julie是想问SUSAN是否有带Condom，JULIE连这都知道，也太早熟了吧。
11. Gabrielle: "Well, as it turns out, Pershing Modeling Academy has an opening for their summer program. Would you like me to sponsor you?"
sponsor：资助，赞助。GABY为了让Danielle离开JOHN，居然想到要把Danielle 送到模特学校去，还要做她的赞助人，呵呵，有钱的GABY什么事都做得出来。
