影片對白

Bridget: I didn't play netball. Or go to a girl's school . Or have showers.

Cleever: Now that's just not true, is it? Let me start you off.

Bridget: No.

Cleever: Bridget, if you're gonna be dull, I'm going to plunge back into Mrs. Dalloway, and you know how she loves that. Dirty, dirty bitch.

Bridget: Arrived Bangkok, Very hot. Relieved at last to throw myself into serious journalistic work. Thailand has long called travelers from around the globe to take spiritual succour and karmic rest. For centuries, Western visitors have been inevitably drawn to some of Bangkok's oldest sanctuaries.

Cleever: So true. Even I, fight it as I may, am no exception. The moment I arrive here, I almost feel an irresistible pull... to this，the Temple of Tranquility. Indeed, nothing symbolizes Thailand's extraordinary fusion of East and West, of tradition and innovation, better than this. Fully body-to-body massage.

Bridget: An incredible thing about Thailand is the amazing traditional cuisine. I'm going to taste kapaluk, the ultimate delicacy. Oh, fuck! Oh, fuck! Oh, my God. My God. Um... Er... Mmm.

Cleever: How about a lovely locust? They're delicious.

Bridget: I can't. No, no, I can't.
