Freya - she's been invited
今晚去唐宁街参加欢迎酒会
to a welcome drink at Number 10 tonight.
这不代表你没机会了 艾登
Well, that's not game over for you, Aiden.
政♥治♥生涯很少有体面收场的 不是吗
Most political careers end in ignominy, don't they?
不是成为党派的牺牲品
Sacrificed on the altar of the party
就是断送在投票箱里
or guillotined at the ballot box.
我凭什么例外
Why should I be the exception?
布莱尔一直留着戈登·布朗
Blair never sacked Gordon Brown,
[布朗任财政大臣长达十年 期间不曾被撤换]
因为将他留在身边
because it was safer having him
为己所用 比踢走他
on the inside of the tent pissing out
让他祸害自己更安全
than on the outside pissing in.
他很清楚布朗作为普通议员能搅得鸡犬不宁
He knew the damage he might wreak rampaging on the back benches.
也清楚他在普通议员间的号♥召力
He knew the support he commanded there.
你也一样 艾登
As you do, Aiden.
为什么不把这当做
Why don't you think of this
重新审视你从政的初衷的机会呢
as a chance to reconnect with why you first went into politics?
你一从牛津毕业
You left Oxford and you went
就直接进了国会这个暖房♥ 对吧
straight into the hothouse of Westminster, didn't you?
你几乎没接触过现实世界
You barely lived in the real world,
没体验过普通人的生活
barely experienced the... the reality of people's lives.
我当然体验过
Of course I bloody experience it!
我接待过选民...
I meet them in my damn surgery...
亲身体验 那是不一样的
Virtual reality! It's not the same.
你刚得知
I saw the same thing
诺亚患艾斯伯格症时也是这样
when you were first told about Noah's Asperger's.
[艾斯伯格症候群 一种精神极度孤僻的状态]
他的病情让你退缩了
How you...stepped back from him.
你就是那时一头扎进了
That was when you chose to bury yourself
国会强权政♥治♥的污水坑中 对吧
in the cesspit of Westminster power politics, wasn't it?
趁这该死的腿还能走 我赶紧回家吧
I best get back home, before my damn legs seize up.
如果我真的退缩了 那也是因为你
If I did step back from him, it was because of you.
因为我知道我永远无法像你对我那样触动他
Cos I knew I'd never touch his life as you have mine.
别轻言放弃
Never say never.
很高兴你能加入
Thrilled to have you on board.
我一直说我们忽视你太久了
Always said we'd neglected you for too long.
你之前肯定来过
I'm sure you've been here before
但它总能给你带来震撼 对吗
but it never fails to take one's breath away, does it?
让人觉得卑微
Humbling is the word.
我去通知他你来了
I'll tell him you're here.
我只要你信守承诺
What I'd like you to do is keep your promises.
-谢谢 -你保证让当地民众
- Ooh, thank you very much. - You promised local people
拥有话语权
would have some say of what's happenning,
结果都是空话 十足的空话
and nothing! Absolutely nothing!
我这种小人物
But oh, no - little man,
没有得到许可 但他们却得到了
he doesn't get his permission, but they do!
就是因为他们有钱去贿赂
It's all about brown envelopes.
就是这么回事
That's what's going on down there!
现在为您带来《今日国会》
'And now, Today In Parliament.
政♥府♥又迎来忙碌的一周
'Another busy week for the Government.
移♥民♥和刑罚改革
'Its two major pieces of
这两项重要的立法举措...
legislation on immigration and penal reform...'
从政♥治♥要员到家庭主夫
谢谢你能来
Thank you for coming.
我以为是在你办公室见面
I thought we were meeting at your office.
但是在这里更放松 不是吗
Well, it's more relaxed here, isn't it?
也更公开
And more public.
我们两个部门休戚相关 芙蕾雅
Our two departments have adjacent interests, Freya.
如果想有效地合作
If we're to work together effectively,
那我们就得将私人恩怨抛至一边
we have to find a way of putting aside our personal issues.
而且得让大家都看到
It's important everyone sees that.
尼斯沙拉
Salade Nicoise.
好的
Certainly.
一分熟牛肝 加点菠菜 少放点薯条
Calves' liver. Rare. Extra spinach, hold the fries.
再来一瓶教皇新堡2009干白葡萄酒
And a bottle of the 2009 Chateauneuf-du-Pape blanc.
好的 先生
Very good, sir.
与他对立也是逼不得已 芙蕾雅
I had no choice but to come out against him, Freya.
他辞职前一周 曾在我伦敦的公♥寓♥过夜
The week before he resigned, he stayed over at my London flat.
商讨对策嘛 他跟我说了
To discuss strategy, he told me.
那他有没有告诉你我反对他这么做
Did he also tell you I warned him against it?
我静观了下情势 觉得苗头不怎么好
That I'd taken soundings - the omens weren't good?
他会危险地暴露无余
He'd find himself dangerously exposed?
有意思 这些话他跟我只字未提
Curious that he never mentioned any of that.
而你这么担心
Or that given your concern,
却也没打个电♥话♥跟我说一声
you didn't call to give me a heads up.
我现在倒真希望给你打电♥话♥了
I wish now I bloody had called you.
我当时...觉得
It...it seemed...
那相当于背叛
It seemed disloyal.
公开抨击他就不是了
And publicly shafting him wasn't?
你本可以学学本丢·彼拉多 布鲁斯
You could have done a Pontius Pilate, Bruce.
[主持审判耶稣的罗马总督 迫于压力下令钉死耶稣 但认为他无罪]
拒绝发表评论
You could've refused to comment.
他跟我太要好了
He and I were too close.
如果我不公开反对他
If I hadn't come out against him,
大家就会认为我跟他沆瀣一气
I'd have been accused of collusion.
我能怎么办
What was I supposed to do?
和他一起自毁政♥治♥前途
Commit political kamikaze along with him?
那晚我警告过他
I warned him that night,
我明确地跟他说这么做是错的
I told him flat-out it was a mistake to go on with it.
我试着劝他放弃 芙蕾雅 真的
I tried to dissuade him, Freya. God knows I did.
但我说不动他
I...I couldn't reach him.
好像他觉得
It's like he has this...
这是他应得的
..sense of entitlement.
你说这不会是因为诺亚吧
you don't suppose it's about Noah, do you?
好像因为他不健全 这世界就亏欠艾登什么
That his disability somehow means the world owes Aiden something?
说话注意点 布鲁斯
Be very careful, Bruce.
我向首相推荐你的时候
When I put your name forward to the PM,
虽然...
even though...
是你推荐了我
It was you who put my name forward?
虽然我知道这对你是天赐良机
Even though I knew it was a chance in a lifetime for you,
我担心他会竭力阻止
I was afraid he would try to block it.
或者更糟 利用你来报复我
Or worse, use you to get back at me at me somehow.
我该知道他那么在乎你
I should have known he cares too much for you
不会陷你于不义
to put you in such an invidious position.
那你为什么要推荐我 布鲁斯
So why did you put my name forward, Bruce?
减轻你的愧疚感
To assuage your guilt?
这么多年来
How many times have you
你为他牺牲了多少回 芙蕾雅
stepped aside for him over the years, Freya?
那次影子内阁运输大臣的职位空出来时
When that Shadow Transport job came up,
你也有机会的
you had a shot at it, too.
但你为了他自动退出竞选
But you ruled yourself out for him.
后来环境大臣那次也是
Same later with Environment.
而他每次都让你那么做
And he let you do it. Every time.
那不是为了他 而是为了我的家庭
It wasn't for him. It was for the family.
那也是他的家庭
Well, it's his family too.
我那晚也跟艾登说过
As I said to Aiden that night,
竞争政党领袖不仅在于自大和时机
a leadership bid isn't just about hubris or timing.
而是选择盟友
It's about picking your allies.
到头来 胜负在于有谁支持你
In the end you're only as good as the support you have.
他想单独见你是个好兆头
The fact that he wanted to see you alone is a good sign.
说明他慌了 不确定你会怎么选
It means he's rattled. He wasn't sure which way you'd jump.
你要开始跟他书面来往
You need to start a paper trail.
先发短♥信♥ 他对那个比较放心
Texts at first, he'll feel safer with those.
然后升级为邮件
Then ramp it up into e-mail.
发他的私人邮箱 他就对你更加不设防
Use his personal e-mail address - he'll be more unguarded on it.
套出他的竞选时间表
Get the time frame on his campaign,
策略 任何你能弄到手的信息
strategy - whatever you can coax out of him.
我们拿到书面证据
We get him on paper,
透露给媒体 那就是致命一击
we leak it to the press, that's a slam dunk.
我很想在你身上藏个摄像头
I'm tempted to hide a camera on you,
拍下他说首相坏话的样子
catch him bad-mouthing the PM.
然后放到网上 暴露他的叛徒嘴脸
Shove that on YouTube. That would nail his treacherous arse.
我开玩笑呢
