Mark: So, let’t talk how we’re gonna do this thing.
Juno: Well, don't I just have the thing? Squeeze it on out and hand it over?
Gerta: Mark and Vanessa are willing to negotiate an open adoption.
Mac: Well, what does that mean?
Gerta: It means they’ll send annual updates, photos, let Juno know how the baby is doing as he or she grows up.
Juno: Whoah. No, no, no, no, no, I don’t want photos or any kind of notification, you know. I mean can’t we just kick this old school? You know, like I, I stick the baby in a basket and send it your way. Like Moses in the reeds.
Mark: Technically, that would be kicking it Old Testament.
Juno: Exactly! Right? Do you know what I mean? Like in the good old days. When it was quick and dirty.
Gerta: Well, then we all agree a traditional closed adoption would be best for all involved?
Juno: Shit, yes, just close her on up.
Mark: Obviously, we would compensate you for all your medical expenses.
Vanessa: Are you looking for any other type of compensation?
Mac: Excuse me?
Juno: No. No, I don't want to, you know, sell the thing, I just... I want... I just want the baby to be with people who are gonna love it, and be good parents, you know? I’m, I’m in, I’m in high school. Dude, I’m just, I’m ill-equipped.
Vanessa: You’re doing a beautiful and a selfless thing for us.
Mark: Vanessa has wanted a baby ever since we got married.
Vanessa: I want to be a mommy so badly!
Mac: You don’t say.
Vanessa: Have you ever felt like you were just born to do something?
Mac: Yes. Heating and air conditioning.
Vanessa: There you go. I was born to be a mother. Some of us are.
Juno: How about you, Mark, are you looking forward to being a dad?
Mark: Betcha, yeah. Every guy wants to be a father. Wants to coach the soccer team and help out with the science fair and the volcano goes off. Yeah, all that.
Vanessa: Maybe Gerta could take us through the preliminary documents that you have drawn up. Sweet…
Juno: Yeah. Could I use the facilities first? ‘Cause being pregnant makes me pee like Seabiscuit.
Vanessa: Sure. The downstairs bathroom is being re-tiled, but if you go upstairs, then to the right and to...
Juno: Oh yeah! Room with the toilet.
Vanessa: She alright?
妙語佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. Kick this old school
Old school，也做old skool，oldschool，oldskool，是個(gè)俚語，指“老作派，老方法，老習(xí)慣”，這個(gè)片語有濃重的懷舊感，當(dāng)然它不一定都是貶義，有時(shí)也指舊時(shí)更高的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。這里Juno的意思是 she will get rid of the baby using the old method -i.e. put it in a basket and let it float down a river and hopefully someone will find it - this is an old story from the Old Testament, about Moses who was deserted by his parents, putting him in a basket and kicked down the river.
2. Good old days 是紐約前市長(zhǎng)Philip Hone造出來的，意指“過去的好時(shí)光，過去的日子”，這個(gè)片語也是有濃重的懷舊情緒。
3. quick-and-dirty
這個(gè)片語的意思是“cheaply made or done; of inferior quality快捷而粗劣的，迅速而又隨性的”，就是說你可以用快捷的辦法解決一個(gè)問題，但是卻留下很多后患，例如：I can have a quick-and-dirty fix in place tonight, but I'll have to rewrite the whole module to solve the underlying design problem. 我今晚可以用一種快捷但是粗略的方法單修復(fù)這個(gè)毛病，但我過后得重寫整個(gè)模塊，解決深層的設(shè)計(jì)問題。
