NICK: I'm nineteen.
ALICE: But how can you live nineteen years without ever washing clothes?
NICK: My mother always did it.
ALICE: Yes, my mother washed my clothes too.
But when I was twelve, I started to wash clothes myself.
NICK: I know about this fact.
American children are more independent. They do more for themselves.
But I am from Taiwan. In Taiwan, children must study very hard.
So the mother does everything for the kids.
The mother wants her kids to get very good grades at school.
So I've never washed clothes before. You shouldn't laugh at me for it.
ALICE: I'm not laughing at you. But let me ask you something?
NICK: What?
ALICE: How are you going to survive here?
I mean, if you can't do anything for yourself.
If you can't cook, if you can't w wash clothes, if you can't clean house.
How can you live on your own?
NICK: I don't know. It's hard. But I have to learn.
ALICE: Well, I'll help you learn how to use these machines.
NICK: Thanks. My name's Nick.
ALICE: I'm Alice. I guess I'll have to be your mother for today.
NICK: Thanks, Mom. Thanks.
尼克:对不起。
艾丽斯:怎么了?
尼克:我从来没有来过这个地方。
你能给我一点建议我应该怎么做?
