the sum of two sides of the ledger.

综合说来 身为一名警察
You know, at the end of the day, as a cop，

一般都处于这么一种境地
you're the sum of two sides of the ledger.

有人恨不得你完蛋
The people who want to see you go down

有人根本不鸟你
and the people who dont give a crap about you.

而现在 弗斯科 我认为根本没人鸟你
Now, Fusco, I don't think anyone gives a crap about you.

在这句话里："You know, at the end of the day, as a cop，you're the sum of two sides of the ledger." 是指，从根本上讲，作为一名警察，你的工作和影响是由两部分构成的，正如在会计账本上的借方和贷方一样。

可以这样理解：

你知道，归根到底，作为一名警察，你所扮演的角色由两部分构成。

这句话强调的是警察身份中的冲突和平衡，提醒警察在维护法律和个人信念之间找到合适的平衡点。

If you are shrewd in your spending, you can make a small salary go a long way. Use the adjective shrewd to describe a person or thing that is smart or clever in a practical sort of way.

The word shrewd is from a Middle English adjective formed from the noun schrewe "an evil person, a villain." This Middle English noun is an earlier form of our modern English word shrew. So shrewd and shrew are related to each other. Shrewd doesn't usually have a disapproving or negative tone, but shrew certainly does.

(comparative shrewder, superlative shrewdest)

I got a date with a sock

means Masturbation.

The phrase "I got a date with a sock" is not a commonly recognized idiom or expression, and it may be a line taken from specific content, spoken casually, or used humorously in certain contexts. One possible, informal meaning mentioned in an online source is in reference to a sock used for masturbation. It is a crude, slang way to indicate that someone has no plans other than staying in and engaging in self-pleasure.

However, without specific context, it could also be a humorous or sarcastic way of saying that one has no significant plans at all. Again, please note that this is slang and not an appropriate or socially accepted expression in formal situations or polite conversation.

If you provide more context or details about where you heard the phrase, or if it's from a specific movie or show, I might be able to give you a more precise understanding of its meaning or how it's being used.

hit the bricks

我们开始一起巡逻出警
We walked a beat together coming up.

后来他去了缉毒组 我去了凶案组
He went to Narcotics. I went to Homicide.
就这样
That's the long and short of it.

The phrase "that's the long and short of it" is an idiomatic expression used to sum up or give a concise summary or conclusion of a matter without going into a lengthy explanation. It means to convey the essential points or the main idea of something in brief.

An example sentence using this phrase might be:

"We've had our ups and downs, but when all is said and done, we've had a successful year—that's the long and short of it."

我们经历了起起落落，但终究来说，我们这一年很成功——说长不长，说短不短，就是这么回事

chickens coming home to roost. 自食恶果

自食恶果罢了
Just chickens coming home to roost.

The phrase "chickens coming home to roost" is a proverbial expression meaning that bad or foolish things that someone has done in the past are now causing problems for them, essentially that the consequences of one's actions are finally being felt.

For example:

The CEO is now facing the consequences of his company's predatory policies—his chickens are coming home to roost.

来源:

• Dictionary.com

• Collins Dictionary

• The Hindu

The consequences of doing wrong always catch up with the wrongdoer, as in Now that you're finally admitting your true age, no one believes you—chickens come home to roost. The fact that chickens usually come home to rest and sleep has long been known, but the idea was used figuratively only in 1809, when Robert Southey wrote, “Curses are like young chickens, they always come home to roost” (The Curse of Kehama).

相似短语

several idiomatic expressions related to the concept of facing the consequences of one's actions.

1. "Reap what you sow" - You will eventually face the consequences of your actions, good or bad.

- If you treat people well, you'll reap what you sow, and they'll likely treat you well in return.

如果你善待他人，你将收获你所播种的，他们也很可能会善待你。

2. "Pay the piper" - To face the consequences of one's actions, particularly after a period of irresponsible behavior or neglect.

- After neglecting his studies, he had to pay the piper during the final exams.

在忽视他的学业后，他在期末考试中不得不承担后果。

3. "Face the music" - To accept responsibility for something you have done.

- She knew she couldn't hide the mistake forever and it was time to face the music.

她知道她不可能永远隐藏这个错误，现在是时候接受责任了。

4. "Get one's comeuppance" - To receive punishment or retribution that one deserves.

- He was always cheating his friends, and finally, he got his comeuppance when no one was willing to help him in his time of need.

他一直在欺骗他的朋友，最终当他需要帮助的时候，没有人愿意帮忙，他得到了应有的报应。

These expressions serve as reminders that one's actions have consequences, and eventually, one may have to confront them.

ergo 因此

Indeed. Ergo, you are now Jason Bao, playboy millionaire.

adverb

therefore.

"she was the sole beneficiary of the will, ergo the prime suspect"

The adverb ergo is a fancy version of "therefore." Use it as a connector between thoughts and sentences that logically follow. You were present during the robbery; ergo, you were called as a witness.

Ergo appeared in late Middle English meaning "therefore," probably from the Old Latin root regere, "to guide." You can see the relation to the word as it is used today, to present a connection between ideas where a second sentence or idea is "guided" by, or draws a logical conclusion from the first one. Satirist Jonathan Swift once wrote, “Words are but wind; and learning is nothing but words; ergo, learning is nothing but wind.”

can·tan·ker·ous 脾气暴躁的

/kanˈtaNGk(ə)rəs/

 adjective 

1. bad-tempered, argumentative, and uncooperative.

   "a crusty, cantankerous old man"

他脾气是不好 但他不是杀人犯
He's cantankerous, but he's not a killer.

more to... than meets the eye 另有隐情

Mr. Reese, I think there may be more to Lou than meets the eye.

Here are some example sentences using the phrase "more to... than meets the eye" from IMDb, specifically within the context of U.S. dramas:

1. In the context of a film review for "Entre Ses Mains": "The film is the usual narrative; wife in a long time marriage, meets and hooks up with a charismatic individual (usually an artist type), for a torrid affair, with more to it than meets the eye."

   • 这部电影是典型的叙述；长时间婚姻中的妻子，遇到并与一个有魅力的人（通常是艺术家类型）连接，进行了一场热情的恋情，事件背后有更多不为人知的事情。

2. From the plot summary of "Stranger Things": "... more is going on than meets the eye."

conjunction

though.

“虽然”、“尽管”。它通常用于提出对前面陈述的一个限制或者让步条件。

例如：

He was making progress, albeit rather slowly.

他正在取得进步，虽然相当缓慢。

在学术写作或正式语境中，使用 "albeit" 可以使句子听起来更加高级和正式。它可以在引入一个对比或让步的副句时代替 "although" 或 "even though"，提供一个更为文学化的语气。

Here are some example sentences using "albeit" from reviews of U.S. dramas on IMDb:

1. "Rather than being moving, it is slightly laughable. Then the movie turns into a straightforward, albeit very well shot, action flick full of gore and carnage."

   • ...尽管方式不同 -- 同事，最终证明是他的灵魂伴侣。每个人都很有魅力，非常友好，如果最后看起来幸福浪漫...

   Source: IMDb reviews for "A Crush on You"

3. "Notion 2: This is a real departure for Sundance. Gee, it seems to be religious, albeit in a weird sort of way. There are all these undertones of faith and hope ..."

   • 第二个观点：这对于圣丹斯来说是一个真正的转变。哎呀，它似乎是宗教性的，尽管是以一种奇怪的方式。这里有着所有关于信仰和希望的潜台词...

   Source: IMDb reviews for "Henry Poole Is Here"

These sentences exhibit how "albeit" is employed to introduce contrast or concession within a elaborate context, typical of the nuanced language found in film reviews.

slam 很忙

"How's my day, Jerome?"
"Let's go with slammed."

"Slam" 不通常直接表示"很忙"这个概念。但在非正式场合，特别是俚语中，"slammed" 这个形容词有时可以用来表示某人非常忙碌，意指他们的时间表被安排得满满的，几乎没有喘息的空间。

例句：I can't make it to the party tonight; I'm totally slammed with work.
来源：自创例句

中文例句：我今晚不能去参加派对了，我工作太忙了。
来源：自创例句

这种使用方式是比较随意的，可能不适用于所有场合。

在美剧 "The Heat with Mark McEwan" 的 "Winterlicious" 集中使用了"slammed"这个词来形容非常忙碌的情况。以下是具体的例句：

Both of McEwan's busy restaurants get slammed for two weeks when the city's promotional dining event draws thousands of extra customers through the doors.

麦克尤恩忙碌的餐厅在城市的推广餐饮活动期间，因为吸引了成千上万额外的顾客而在这两周内忙得不可开交。

来源：IMDb的美剧"The Heat with Mark McEwan"的"Winterlicious"集。

The dialogue:

"How's my day, Jerome?"
"Let's go with slammed."

Here, the word "slammed" is used informally to describe being very busy or overwhelmed with work or activities. It suggests that the speaker's schedule is packed with appointments or tasks, leaving little to no free time.

Example:
"How's my day, Jerome? Oh, let's go with slammed. Tovo at 10:00, New Technologies at 11:00, and then the florist called again..."

• From "Person of Interest" - Season 2, Episode 19 "Trojan Horse" (source: tvshowtranscripts.ourboard.org)

这段对话：

"我的一天怎么样，杰罗姆？"
"我们就说非常忙碌吧。"

这里，“slammed”这个词是非正式用法，用来描述非常忙碌或者被工作或活动压得喘不过气来。它暗示说话者的日程安排排得满满的，几乎没有空闲时间。

示例：
"我的一天怎么样，杰罗姆？哦，我们就说非常忙碌。上午10点Tovo，11点新技术，然后花店的人又打电话来了……"

词义：

Jump ship (短语/phrase)
