17 Y’all New to These Parts

Chapter 17 Y'ALL NEW TO THESE PARTS? Soon after crossing the Maryland state line, Dr. McDonald pulled off the highway and drove a few miles to Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Camp-Resort in Williamsport, Maryland. Mrs. McDonald checked in at the office while the kids checked out the pool. It was an uneventful night. In the morning, Dr. McDonald said he was in the mood for poached eggs, and they didn't have any eggs in the RV. So they hit the road looking for a place that served a decent breakfast. It wasn't long before they came upon the Blue Bell, one of those diners that was designed to look like it was from the 1950s. There was a line of stools at the counter, silver chrome and mirrors all over the place. A big jukebox was playing "Great Balls of

第17章你们都是新来的吗？ 在越过马里兰州的州界后不久。 麦克唐纳把车停在高速公路上，开了几英里，来到马里兰州威廉斯波特的瑜伽熊杰里斯通公园度假村。 麦克唐纳夫人在办公室登记入住，孩子们在游泳池登记入住。 这是一个平静的夜晚。 第二天早上，麦克唐纳说他想吃荷包蛋，而他们的房车里没有鸡蛋。 于是，他们开始四处寻找能提供像样早餐的地方。 没过多久，他们就来到了蓝铃餐厅（Blue Bell），这是一家被设计成20世纪50年代风格的餐厅。 柜台旁有一排凳子，镀银的，到处都是镜子。 一个大点唱机正在播放《伟大的球》

Fire" in the corner, alongside a glass case filled with cakes and pies that spun around slowly. Mrs. McDonald picked up a few travel brochures from a rack on the wall. A sign said SEAT YOURSELF, so the McDonalds slid into a booth near the window. Coke was immediately absorbed in reading the menu, which was filled with Maryland trivia. Soon the waitress, a bleached blonde wearing a pink skirt, a little pink hat, and a lot of eye makeup, came roller-skating over to the table. "Howdy, folks," she said in a deep Southern accent. "Y'all new to these parts?" "We're on a cross-country trip," Mrs. McDonald

角落里有“火”，旁边是一个玻璃盒子，里面装满了蛋糕和馅饼，慢慢地旋转着。 麦克唐纳太太从墙上的架子上拿起几本旅游手册。 一个指示牌上写着“请自便”，于是麦当劳的人就溜进了靠近窗户的一个摊位。 可口可乐立刻全神贯注地阅读菜单，菜单上满是马里兰的琐事。 不一会儿，那个金发碧眼的女服务员滑着轮滑走到桌边。她穿着一条粉色裙子，戴着一顶粉色小帽，化了很多眼妆。 “大家好，”她用浓重的南方口音说。 “你们都是新来的吗？”“我们在进行一次越野旅行，”麦克唐纳太太说

told her. "My sister is getting married in Washington the day after tomorrow." "Well ain't that sweet?" said the waitress. "So what would you folks like this morning? We got eggs, bacon, sausage, muffins…" "I'll have two poached eggs on toast," said Dr. McDonald. "Adam and Eve on a raft!" the waitress hollered to a guy in the kitchen. "And coffee, please," added Dr. McDonald. "Cuppa joe!" hollered the waitress. Pep kicked Coke under the table, and he shot her a nasty glare before looking back at the menu. "I'll have a western omelet with french fries," said Mrs. McDonald. "One cowboy with spurs!" hollered the waitress. "And no onions, please." "Don't cry over it!" hollered the waitress. "On second thought," said Mrs. McDonald, "can I get an English muffin instead of the french fries?" "Eighty-six the spurs!" hollered the waitress. "Burn the British!"

告诉她。“我妹妹后天要在华盛顿结婚了。” “嗯，那不是很甜蜜吗？”女服务员说。 “你们今天早上想喝点什么？” 我们有鸡蛋、熏肉、香肠、松饼……”“我要两个荷包蛋加吐司。 麦当劳。“亚当和夏娃在木筏上！”女服务员对厨房里的一个男人喊道。 “请来杯咖啡。” 麦当劳。“咖啡！”女服务员喊道。 佩普把可乐踢到桌子底下，恶狠狠地瞪了她一眼，然后又看了看菜单。 “我要一份西式煎蛋卷和炸薯条，”麦克唐纳太太说。 “一个穿马刺的牛仔！”女服务员喊道。 “请不要洋葱。”“别哭了！”女服务员喊道。 “我想了想，”麦克唐纳太太说，“我可以要一份英式松饼而不是炸薯条吗？”“八十六马刺！”女服务员喊道。 “烧死英国人！”

Pep kicked Coke under the table again. "Hey, stop it!" Coke barked at his sister. "Stop what?" asked Mrs. McDonald. "She's kicking me." "Stop kicking your brother." "I'm not kicking him." "And how about you, little lady?" asked the waitress. "What'll ya have?" "I'll have waffles," Pep said. "Two checkerboards!" hollered the waitress. "And butter, please." "With cow paste!" "And a glass of milk." "One moo juice!" "And what about you, hon?" she asked Coke. "Do you have any cold cereal?" he asked. "Sorry, sugar," the waitress replied. "We're fresh out." "Then I'll have soft-boiled eggs." "Drown the kids!" hollered the waitress. "Do you have rye toast?" asked Coke. "Whiskey down!"

佩普又把可乐踢到桌子底下了。 “嘿，住手！”可口可乐对着他的妹妹吠叫。 “停什么？”麦克唐纳太太问。 “她在踢我。”“别踢你弟弟了。” “我不会踢他的。”“你呢，小姑娘？”女服务员问。 “你要点什么？”“我要华夫饼，”佩普说。 “两个棋盘！”女服务员喊道。 “请给我黄油。”“加牛油！”“再来一杯牛奶。” “一杯果汁！”“那你呢，亲爱的？”她问科克。 “你有冷麦片吗？”他问。 “对不起，甜心，”女服务员回答。 “我们刚买完。”“那我就吃半熟的鸡蛋。” “淹死孩子们！”女服务员喊道。 “你们有黑麦吐司吗？”可口可乐问。 “威士忌!”

"And a glass of orange juice too," Coke added. "Hug one!" the waitress hollered. "Anything else?" Dr. McDonald had been staring at the waitress ever since they came in. "Say, haven't I met you somewhere before?" he asked. "You look familiar to me." "'Fraid not, hon," she said. "I'm sure I woulda remembered a handsome fella like you." Pep kicked Coke under the table again. When he looked at her angrily, she was mouthing the word "Mya." Coke looked at the waitress, and she winked at him. Pep was right. Under that blond wig and all that makeup, it was Mya! "I'll be back in a jiff with your grub," the waitress—that is, Mya—said. "I gotta … go to the bathroom," Coke said. "Me too," said Pep, getting up. The twins slid out of the booth and hustled over to a hallway where the restrooms were located. Mya was waiting for them, with open arms.

“再来一杯橙汁，”可口可乐补充道。 “拥抱一个！”女服务员喊道。 “还有别的事吗?”自从他们进来后，麦克唐纳医生就一直盯着女服务员。 “喂，我以前是不是在什么地方见过你？”他问。 “你看起来很眼熟。” “恐怕不行，亲爱的，”她说。 “我肯定会记得像你这样英俊的小伙子。” 佩普又把可乐踢到桌子底下了。 当他生气地看着她时，她正用嘴说出“米亚”这个词。 科克看了看女服务员，女服务员对他眨了眨眼睛。 佩普是对的。戴着金色假发，化着浓妆的，是米娅！“我马上就给您送来食物，”女服务员——也就是米亚——说。 “我得……去趟洗手间，”科克说。 “我也是，”佩普说着站了起来。 这对双胞胎溜出隔间，匆匆走向洗手间所在的走廊。 米娅正张开双臂等着他们。

"What are you doing here?" Pep asked as they hugged. "Right now, I'm serving breakfast," she said. Her Southern accent was gone. The short-order cook came over from the kitchen, and when he got close enough, it was obvious that it was Bones. "How did you know we were going to stop at this diner?" Coke asked. "We always know where you are," Bones replied seriously. "Listen, we need to make this quick. We've intercepted a message. Something bad is going to happen in Washington on the Fourth of July." "That's the day after tomorrow," Mya said. "It's going to be something big." "Are you sure it's not the third of July?" Pep asked. "No, it's the fourth," Bones replied. "Our aunt is getting married on the Fourth of July," Pep said. "We're going to be there. What's going to happen?"

“你在这儿干什么？”佩普在他们拥抱时问道。 “现在，我在做早餐，”她说。 她的南方口音消失了。 快餐厨师从厨房走了过来，当他走近时，很明显是骨头。 “你怎么知道我们要在这家餐厅停下来？”可口可乐问道。 “我们总是知道你在哪里，”骨头严肃地回答。 “听着，我们得快点。 我们截获了一条信息。 7月4日，华盛顿将会发生一些不好的事情。” “那是后天的事，”米亚说。 “这将是一件大事。” “你确定今天不是七月三日吗？”Pep问道。 “不，是第四个，”骨头回答。 “我们的阿姨要在七月四日结婚，”佩普说。 “我们会去的。会发生什么？”
