K-大众情人? What does that mean?
L- um…you know , 就是所有女孩都追着的那种!
K- Ohh… I think we say that guy is a "lady killer" in English. Some guy who's really good looking and women just THROW themselves at them. Yeah. No thanks. I'll pass. (standing up)

K- Exactly. I made the mistake of dating this guy once- totally handsome, totally high maintenance.
L- wait- high maintenance?
K- Like you, you know. Hard to satisfy, really needy 3, always moody 4. If I already work with you, why do I need one of them?
L- Too bad. It's not up to you! 那你想找个什么样的呀?

L- (to another camera她又做梦啦!)
K-What's your type?
L-那肯定是高富帅嘛! 什么都得听我的,长的嘛,就像阿信!
