Phoebe: Yeah — no, I’m just — it’s, I haven’t worked — It’s my bank.
Monica: What did they do to you?
Phoebe: It’s nothing, it’s just… Okay. I’m going through my mail, and I open up their monthly 1, you know, “STATEMENT”…
Ross: Easy. (relax)
Phoebe: And there’s five hundred extra dollars in my account.
Chandler: Oh, Satan’s minions 3 at work again.
Phoebe: Yes, ’cause now I have to go down there, and deal with them.
Joey: What are you talking about? Keep it!
Phoebe: It’s not mine. I didn’t earn it. If I kept it, it would be like stealing.
Rachel: Yeah, but if you spent it, it would be like shopping!
Phoebe: Okay. Okay, let’s say I bought a really great pair of shoes. Do you know what I’d hear, with every step I took? “Not-mine. Not-mine. Not-mine.” And even if I was happy, Okay, and, and skipping, “Not-not-mine, not-not-mine, not-not-mine, not-not-mine...”
Let’s say (假使….)
乔伊:菲比,你没事吧?
菲比:我还好——不好,只是,那,太不值得了……是我的银行。

罗斯:别激动。
菲比:然后我的户头多了五百元。
钱德勒:哦,撒旦的奴才又开始活跃了。
菲比:没错,因为我得去银行,找他们处理。
乔伊:你说什么呢?留着自己用吧!
菲比:这些钱不是我的,不是我赚来的。我要是留下来就如同偷窃。
瑞秋:是,不过如果你拿来花,就如同购物!
菲比:好吧,好吧,就比方说我买了一双很棒的鞋。你们知道我每踏出一步都会听到什么吗?“不是我的,不是我的,不是我的”,即使我再快乐、再雀跃,都会听到“不是、不是我的,不是、不是我的,不是、不是我的……”
