地道美語聽力播客:Meeting the Future In-laws

Atsushi: I don’t mind telling you that I’m really nervous about meeting your parents.
Scarlet: You look like you’re going to face the firing squad . It’s not going to be that bad.
Atsushi: I wish I could believe that. I’m going to try to make a good first impression , but I don’t think they’re going to like the fact that I’m a professional musician .
Scarlet: I’ve already told them about you, so there won’t be any surprises.
Atsushi: It doesn’t help that your last boyfriend was a straight-laced college student. Couldn’t you have dated a convict before me? I’d look pretty good to your parents in comparison .
Scarlet: How do you know I didn’t? You don’t know everything about me.
Atsushi: Very funny. Maybe we should postpone this visit with your parents for a little while.
Scarlet: No!
Atsushi: I’m just putting it out there .
Scarlet: We’ve put off this visit for months and my parents are really starting to wonder if you really exist . Let’s not blow this visit out of proportion . They’re only my parents.
Atsushi: I know, but they may also be my in-laws soon.
Scarlet: I know, but it’s not like our whole relationship is riding on this visit. I’ll still like you no matter what . And plus, my parents know I have good taste in men .
Atsushi: At least I know that’s true!
