He got home on Friday night really late, and apparently 1 he'd been out drinking with some clients, so he was really drunk.
他星期五晚上很晚才回家，他显然是和几个客户出去喝了几杯，而且喝得烂醉。

Yes, I think so.
我想是吧。
Oh, yeah, they always get really drunk.
噢，是啊，他们老是喝得烂醉。
Well, anyway, he'd somehow lost his wallet and his house keys, so he couldn't get in.
噢，反正他就是弄丢了钱包和家里的钥匙，所以没办法进门。
He lives alone, you know.
你也知道，他是一个人住。
Oh, really. I thought he lived with his wife.

The neighbors heard him and thought a robbery was in progress, so they called the police.
邻居听到了声音，以为有人要闯入，于是叫警察来。
Oh, no.
噢，不会吧。
Yes. So when the cops arrived, they didn't believe his story:
是啊，结果警察来了以后，并不相信他的说法。
you know, he lost his wallet so he had no ID;你也知道，他弄丢了钱包，所以身上没有身份证。
the neighbors were new and didn't know him, so he couldn't get the police to believe his story.

Well, when he sobered up, he called someone from work to come and bail 2 him out.
