核心句型：
You'd better come clean.
你最好坦白交待。
come clean 直译过来就是：“变干净”，所以这个短语的正确意思是：“全盘招供，坦白交待，和盘托出”。因此，当美国人说"You'd better come clean."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"You'd better tell the truth."、"You'd better not tell lies."、"You'd better be frank."。
情景对白：
Colleague: The personnel manager doubts about my forged degree. What should I do?
同事：人事经理怀疑我的假学历，怎么办？
Benjamin: You'd better come clean. Maybe he will keep you in view of your good performance.
本杰明：你最好坦白交待，或许他考虑到你的表现很好而留下你。
