雙語讀電影 《海底總動員-1》第18章 :代我向你老爸問好

Chapter  18
“Hello, Darla,” the dentist said. “How’s my favorite little niece doing on her special day?”
He placed her in the dentist’s chair. “Let’s see those pearly whites!” he said, opening her mouth. “Ouch!” he cried as she bit his finger. “Grumpy, are we? I know what you want! You want your present.”
“I get a fishy!” Darla shouted.
Looking into the plastic bag, Dr. Sherman knew he didn’t have good news for his niece. “Oh, no—poor little guy,” he said to himself.
Nemo was floating upside down in the bag.
“He’s dead!” the Tank Gang moaned from the tank.
“Must’ve left your present in the car,” the dentist told Darla, trying to hide Nemo. “I’ll go get it.”
As Dr. Sherman moved the bag behind his back, Nemo opened his eyes.
“He’s still alive!” the Tank Gang cheered. “Why’s he playing dead?” one of the fish asked.
The dentist headed toward the bathroom. “He’s gonna get flushed down the toilet!” Gill said happily. “He’s gonna get outta here!”
But then the dentist edged over to a trash can.
“Not the trash can!” the Tank Gang cried. “Hey!” Nigel stuck his beak through the window. “Hey! I found Superfish!”
“Where’s Nemo?” Marlin called from inside Nigel’s beak. “Where is he?”
“Dentist! Dentist!” the Tank Gang shouted.
“Nigel!” Marlin ordered. “Get in there!” He grabbed Nigel’s tongue and, using it like the rudder on a boat, steered him inside.
“What the—” Dr. Sherman said, surprised to see a pelican coming into his office. He lunged for Nigel, but they collided right over Darla where she lay in the dentist’s chair.
The dentist dropped the bag onto the dental tray. Pop! The bag sprang a slow leak.
With Darla right above him, Nemo continued to play dead.
Nigel and Marlin saw Nemo in the bag—dead. Marlin froze in shock.
“Gotcha!” Dr. Sherman exclaimed. He held Nigel by the beak, keeping it tightly shut.
From inside Nigel’s mouth, Marlin yelled, “Nemo!”
Nemo heard his father’s voice. “Daddy?” he whispered.
Marlin didn’t hear Nemo, and the dentist shoved Nigel out the window.
Gill knew they had to do something—fast. Nemo was running out of air.
“Quick!” Gill shouted. “To the top of Mount Wannahockaloogie!” He motioned for the others to go into action.
In the chair, Darla began to swing Nemo’s bag back and forth. “Fishy! Fishy!” she sang.
Nemo was about to pour out through the widening hole in the bag.
In the tank, Bloat lifted a corner of the volcano. Then he inflated himself and nodded to Gill. He had the volcano positioned in just the right way to send Gill in Nemo’s direction. Gill swam into the mouth of the volcano.
Jacques turned on the air valve and whoosh, Gill was launched into the air. He flew behind Dr. Sherman and landed right on Darla’s head.
“Aaagghhh!” Darla screamed.
Nemo fell onto a tray and landed on a dental mirror.
Gill flipped off Darla’s head and onto the tray. “Tell your dad I said hi,” he said when he spotted Nemo.
Gill smacked the mirror with his tail and sent Nemo sailing into the spit sink.
Nemo slid down the drain.
The dentist saw Nemo just as he was disappearing. “Whoa,” he said. Then he picked Gill up off the tray and put him back in the tank.
The gang cheered as Gill entered the tank.
“Is he gonna be okay, Gill?” Gurgle asked.
“Don’t worry,” Gill said. “All drains lead to the ocean.”
Nemo tumbled through the drainpipes into the water treatment plant. He slipped around corners and bends. Finally there was a murky light at the end of the tunnel. Nemo reached the end of a drainage pipe on the harbor floor.
“Daddy!” he cried.
