I'd like to use my brain a little more.
查看中文翻译
and I'm real exhausted.
查看中文翻译
instead of you coming here.
查看中文翻译
You don't need to do that, Grandpa.
查看中文翻译
since ten this morning,
查看中文翻译
Oh, I feel the same way, Susan.
查看中文翻译
It's nice to be alone with you, Grandpa.
查看中文翻译
Yeah, I do.
查看中文翻译
I've got extra time on my hands.
查看中文翻译
We don't get to see enough of each other.
查看中文翻译
So it's just you and me, Susan.
查看中文翻译
but I'm restless.
查看中文翻译
But to tell the truth,
查看中文翻译
I need to get out more.
查看中文翻译
and I love being here with the family,
查看中文翻译
What's Harry doing tonight?
查看中文翻译
I think you do.
查看中文翻译
And am I glad to see you!
查看中文翻译
I'd like to go into the city and meet you there,
查看中文翻译
are visiting relatives in New Jersey today.
查看中文翻译
I am also glad to be here.
查看中文翻译
Grandpa,
查看中文翻译
I miss seeing you.
查看中文翻译
I have been talking to a group of salesmen
查看中文翻译
Well, I mean
查看中文翻译
He and Michelle
查看中文翻译
Is that you, Susan?
查看中文翻译
you know,
查看中文翻译
Am I glad to see you!
查看中文翻译
It's me, Grandpa.
查看中文翻译
I understand, Grandpa.
查看中文翻译
The rest of our family went to the movies.
查看中文翻译
there's a lot to do around the house,
查看中文翻译
Well, you look good.
查看中文翻译
next time
查看中文翻译
Frankly,
查看中文翻译
How are things?
查看中文翻译
Since I retired,
查看中文翻译
you have so much energy and so many years of experience.

Sounds good to me.
查看中文翻译
Sure.
查看中文翻译
Maybe I can help.
查看中文翻译
I need your advice on a personsal matter,
查看中文翻译
Let's go into the kitchen,
查看中文翻译
But I'm bored.
查看中文翻译
mashed potatoes, and a tossed green salad to begin with.
查看中文翻译
I prepared lamb chops,
查看中文翻译
I'm retired.
查看中文翻译
But at my age,
查看中文翻译
Sam, would you come in, please?
查看中文翻译
but it's not about me.
查看中文翻译
Well, there must be something.
查看中文翻译
That's right.
查看中文翻译
and maybe you can help me set the table.
查看中文翻译
You're still thinking about something to do, aren't you?
查看中文翻译
We'll find a solution.
查看中文翻译
You sound like something's bothering you, Susan.
查看中文翻译
I'm not looking for a full-time job.
查看中文翻译
The sketches for the cover of the new doll book?
查看中文翻译
A job of some kind.
查看中文翻译
There are probably a lot of places for you to work
查看中文翻译
to your finding a way to use that wonderful mind of yours.
查看中文翻译
There must be some way to put my mind to good use.
查看中文翻译
I've been thinking about it for weeks now.
查看中文翻译
A positive solution
查看中文翻译
Please sit down.
查看中文翻译
That's not it.
查看中文翻译
What are we having?
查看中文翻译
Grandpa, you are a terrific guy!
查看中文翻译
Particularly in the construction field.
查看中文翻译
You need my advice on a personal matter,

John Marchetta gave me my start here six years ago,
查看中文翻译
What kind of advice are you looking for?
查看中文翻译
Right.
查看中文翻译
I had dinner with him Saturday,
查看中文翻译
Fine, thank you, Mr. Mrarchetta.
查看中文翻译
Then I've solved your problem.
查看中文翻译
Maybe he can do the same thing for your grandfather.
查看中文翻译
and pleased to be living with the family.
查看中文翻译
No, no. I'll do that.
查看中文翻译
and he doesn't get to use it.
查看中文翻译
Shall I call Mr. Marchetta for you?
查看中文翻译
He gave me the chance to use my talents
查看中文翻译
But what can I do?
查看中文翻译
It won't sound like a big deal,
查看中文翻译
It's about my grandfather.
查看中文翻译
He founded this company.
查看中文翻译
and it's not about you. OK.
查看中文翻译
and made me feel more confident.
查看中文翻译
He is,
查看中文翻译
What's the problem?
查看中文翻译
I can always depend on you, Sam.
查看中文翻译
Right.
查看中文翻译
but there's so much energy and talent in the man,
查看中文翻译
John Marchetta runs this company.
查看中文翻译
I thought he was retired
查看中文翻译
What's wrong, Susan?
查看中文翻译
Or at least give him some advice.
查看中文翻译
and he's very unhappy about not working.
查看中文翻译
Simply this.
查看中文翻译
I'm glad to help.
查看中文翻译
Thanks.
查看中文翻译
Except for my grandfather.
查看中文翻译
Right.
查看中文翻译
Now, how's the Stewart family?
查看中文翻译
but it is.
查看中文翻译
When I first graduated from college.
查看中文翻译

Can I tell him that?
查看中文翻译
Tell him to come and see me
查看中文翻译
and I thought… maybe…
查看中文翻译
In fact, that is the reason why I'm here to see you.
查看中文翻译
What's wrong with him?
查看中文翻译
May I call you Malcolm?
查看中文翻译
That's music to my ears.
查看中文翻译
my grandfather is
查看中文翻译
he could be so valuable.
查看中文翻译
I have an idea that may solve the problem for him
查看中文翻译
and help a lot of other people.
查看中文翻译
a lot of wonderful things about you too, Mr. Stewart.
查看中文翻译
I know you're building a new factory,
查看中文翻译
He needs to work.
查看中文翻译
Hi. I'm Malcolm Stewart.
查看中文翻译
John Marchetta.
查看中文翻译
Sit down, sit down.
查看中文翻译
at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
查看中文翻译
Sure can.
查看中文翻译
Yup. Forty-three years.
查看中文翻译
She says
查看中文翻译
Let's talk business.
查看中文翻译
Call me John.
查看中文翻译
Oh, thank you!
查看中文翻译
you used to be in the construction business.
查看中文翻译
She says you're quite a man.
查看中文翻译
Ten o'clock in the morning. Here.
查看中文翻译
I understand
查看中文翻译
Susan has told me a great deal about you.
查看中文翻译
of forty-three years of on-the-job training.
查看中文翻译
That's always nice to hear, Mr. Marchetta.
查看中文翻译
so experienced in the construction trade,
查看中文翻译
Really, Mr. Marchetta?
查看中文翻译
Here's a brief description
查看中文翻译
That is some history!
查看中文翻译
You're a valuable asset, Malcolm.

Sometimes there is,
查看中文翻译
Yup. Forty-three years.
查看中文翻译
What's that?
查看中文翻译
T-O-P-S -- means Talented Older People's Society.
查看中文翻译
Put my experience on the line…
查看中文翻译
Why?
查看中文翻译
There are no dues.
查看中文翻译
with my children and grandchildren.
查看中文翻译
and sometimes there isn't.
查看中文翻译
but, unfortunately,
查看中文翻译
Big jobs -- factories, shopping malls.
查看中文翻译
there isn't any work for a retired person my age.
查看中文翻译
Very valuable.
查看中文翻译
I like being near her.
查看中文翻译
I understand.
查看中文翻译
Well, I'm involved with an organization,
查看中文翻译
After my wife died,
查看中文翻译
Then you retired.
查看中文翻译
The organization serves major companies in this city.
查看中文翻译
I'd like to be a member.
查看中文翻译
That kind of thing.
查看中文翻译
Relax with the family and then look for some work.
查看中文翻译
Experienced, talented, retired.
查看中文翻译
My dautghter Cami lives in New York.
查看中文翻译
When I came here,
查看中文翻译
and I felt I should spend more time
查看中文翻译
How much are the dues?
查看中文翻译
I planned to take a few months off.
查看中文翻译
Thank you.
查看中文翻译
and we're trying to resolve that problem.
查看中文翻译
and they lived in New York.
查看中文翻译
TOPS.
查看中文翻译
Half that time in my own construction company.
查看中文翻译
Yes.
查看中文翻译
I lived in Florida,
查看中文翻译
Because our members are men and women like you.

I've got plenty of time.
查看中文翻译
Have you got time this morning
查看中文翻译
Well,
查看中文翻译
My company was the contractor.
查看中文翻译
I can act on it.
查看中文翻译
Malcolm.
查看中文翻译
because, Danny,
查看中文翻译
Well, I can use your brainpower on the job right now.
查看中文翻译
and use their talents.
查看中文翻译
My company is a member of TOPS.
查看中文翻译
Just fill out this form for me.
查看中文翻译
get some background on the job.
查看中文翻译
Malcolm is on the TOPS team.
查看中文翻译
That is fantastic, John!
查看中文翻译
When I get back, we'll talk about my new factory.
查看中文翻译
and do it while I talk to my secretary.
查看中文翻译
They want to work.
查看中文翻译
It'll only take a few minutes.
查看中文翻译
with my own two hands, practically.
查看中文翻译
I'm glad to see you two guys getting along so well
查看中文翻译
Malcolm, you worked on the Spaceport project?
查看中文翻译
So I try hard to find opportunities for people like you.
查看中文翻译
I understand.
查看中文翻译
I'd like to have you meet my foreman --
查看中文翻译
We'll go over to the job site together.
查看中文翻译
to go over to the construction site with me?
查看中文翻译
But our members want to go out there
查看中文翻译
I'll be right back.
查看中文翻译
I've got an idea for you, Malcolm.
查看中文翻译
I built the theater there
查看中文翻译
Sit right here,
查看中文翻译
And when I see an opportunity,
查看中文翻译
第十二篇 | 走遍美国

… and I do need some advice on a difficult problem.
查看中文翻译
No… thank you.
查看中文翻译
But a simple solution might be
查看中文翻译
I'll tell you the time and date of the next TOPS meeting.
查看中文翻译
I'd like you to meet the group.
查看中文翻译
Welcome aboard, Malcolm!
查看中文翻译
to move the air-conditioning units
查看中文翻译
but I think I can be of some help to you.
查看中文翻译
He's quite a man.
查看中文翻译
It might be simpler and less expensive.
查看中文翻译
And thank Susan.
查看中文翻译
without studying these building plans more carefully.
查看中文翻译
OK, Danny.
查看中文翻译
You just earned your weight in gold, Malcolm.
查看中文翻译
His experience will be valuable to both of us.
查看中文翻译
He's going to be working with you for a while.
查看中文翻译
Let me show you this.
查看中文翻译
I can learn something
查看中文翻译
I know you didn't expect to have me around,
查看中文翻译
I can't believe it!
查看中文翻译
I'm going back to my office.
查看中文翻译
I don't want to give you a final opinion
查看中文翻译
instead of redesigning the entire system.
查看中文翻译
With your background and experience,
查看中文翻译
I will, John.
查看中文翻译
Let me tell you something, Malcolm.
查看中文翻译
It all happened so quickly!
查看中文翻译
Give me a call later, Malcolm.
查看中文翻译
Welcome aboard!
查看中文翻译
A real inspiration for me.
查看中文翻译
And again -- thanks.

It's good to see you so happy.
查看中文翻译
How about a date with your grandfather?
查看中文翻译
I'll pick you up here at seven.
查看中文翻译
You and me. Dinner.
查看中文翻译
He actually took me to meet his foreman.
查看中文翻译
all about your first full day back on the job.
查看中文翻译
Why?
查看中文翻译
I'm not doing anything.
查看中文翻译
I don't know how to thank you, Susan.
查看中文翻译
I'll be at the construction site tomorrow.
查看中文翻译
He was more than helpful.
查看中文翻译
What are you doing tomorrow night?
查看中文翻译
I'm glad Mr. Marchetta was so helpful.
查看中文翻译
I owe you a good steak dinner.
查看中文翻译
And you can tell me
查看中文翻译
What time?
查看中文翻译
I'll accept.
查看中文翻译
Tomorrow night.
查看中文翻译
Is that OK?
查看中文翻译
You're a wonderful granddaughter.
查看中文翻译
I can't wait!
查看中文翻译
I'm thrilled for you, Grandpa.
查看中文翻译
It's a deal!
