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.

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

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。
