Yi-jun: Holly, I just heard some terrible news.

Holly: Me, too. I overheard someone say Taylor has a brain tumor.

Yi-jun: What? No, I heard that he has stomach cancer. His ex-girlfriend said it.

Holly: That could explain all his stomachaches. He's trying to hide it from us.

Yi-jun: Maybe that's why he didn't show up at the potluck. Have you seen him?

Holly: No, but someone said he was in the men's room puking. Follow me!

hide...from someone

對(某人)隱瞞…

I never hide anything from my mother.

我從來沒有對我媽瞞過什么。

potluck (n.)

每人各帶菜肴共享的聚餐會。由于上次Yi-jun辦農(nóng)歷年餐會，Taylor臨時缺席，Yi-jun才會做此聯(lián)想

It's easier to have a potluck dinner than have the host cook everything.

準(zhǔn)備一場自己帶菜的自助聚餐，比作東煮全部的菜簡單多了。

puke (v.)

怡君跑去找荷莉

怡君：荷莉，我剛聽到一些可怕的消息。

荷莉：我也是。我不小心聽到有人說泰勒有腦瘤。

怡君：什么?不是，我聽到的是他有胃癌。他的前女友說的。

荷莉：難怪他老是胃痛。他想要瞞著我們。

怡君：或許他沒去自助餐會，就是因為這個。你有看到他嗎?

荷莉：沒，但是有人說他在男廁所吐。跟我來!
