James:Sounds a little weak.
Ann: Go with a hammerhead then-espresso mixed with drip coffee.

Ann: Don't worry, James. We'll get this case worked out in no time.

詹姆士:小安,别再跟洁丝抬杠了,帮我点一些新口味。最近已经不流行喝那堤了。
小 安:你何不试试美式咖啡?浓缩咖啡加水。
詹姆士:听来味道有点淡。
小 安:那就来杯榔头咖啡吧——浓缩咖啡加一般滴滤式咖啡。
詹姆士:听来好多了,但希望这不会让我想拿榔头敲客户的脑袋。
小 安:别担心,詹姆士。我们很快就会把这个案子解决掉。
