影片對白
Are you crazy?! You think I want to break out of here? 16 months from now, I'm
out the gate.
我觀之我見
有時候我也挺納悶的：為什么想過平靜日子的人總是過不上呢？到底是誰逼得誰？

小試牛刀
4. papi
是個西班牙語，意思是daddy?？赡芎芏嘧x者會覺得奇怪，Sucre 為什么會稱呼 Michael “daddy”，其實在英語俚語中，daddy
常常用來稱呼別人，就像我們漢語中稱呼外人用的“老大”、“大哥”一樣，女生也可以稱呼自己的男朋友daddy。同樣在英語中，上了年紀的人常常稱呼年輕的男生son，在漢語中我們把它譯成“孩子”。
5. posse on my ass
Posse 在俚語中指“一群人，一伙人”，posse on one's ass
可以指“一伙人在追蹤某人或是某人是團伙的成員，團伙不允許他退出”。Sucre這里的意思是“我很確定，我不會和你們一起越獄，我不想被那幫警察追蹤”。
6. Beat you six ways to / till Sunday
這是一個俚語，意思是beat someone up badly，例如：Hey, man! Behave or I'll beat you six ways
to Sunday!
7. pendejo
這也是一個西班牙語，意思是asshole。Asshole 是罵人的臟話，很嚴重的那種，所以電視劇里用了西班牙中的同義詞來代替。
文化面面觀
美國的槍支持有和管制
在美國，只要你達到了法定的年齡，取得槍支許可證且沒有犯罪前科，就可以合法擁有槍支。美國人使用槍大致與中國人使用刀相似，美國人使用槍支的普遍性令所有中國人聽起來咂舌，美國人用槍來捍衛自己的安全與自由，大致上槍會給人一種安全感。伴隨著槍支的普遍使用情況的出現，美國的校園槍擊案，槍支濫用引發的誤殺，搶劫等犯罪層出不窮。轟動一時的案件有日本留學生被美國人開槍誤殺，案件中的被告只被判很輕的罪，美國人也習慣了這種情況，因為這就是美國，一旦你闖入了別人領地，警告不聽后，美國人有權用槍來捍衛自己的安全。這讓很多的日本人不滿，集體抗議，差點引發兩國沖突，但是這就是美國與日本的不同，這名留學生僅僅是美國人為自由所付出的代價之一，殊不知有多少靈魂葬送在此。
The Second Amendment to the US Constitution says, "the right of the people to
keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Gun owners, led by the National
Rifle Association (NRA), interpret this to mean that the government has no
business telling people how many and what kind of guns they can own. Over the
years, the NRA has headed off most attempts to restrict gun ownership, insisting
that the freedom to own guns is the peoples' only protection against oppressive
government. "Guns don't kill people," they say. "People kill people."
True enough, but studies have shown that a gun kept in the home for
"protection" is 22 times more likely to be used on a family member than an
intruder. Following several student shootings, high schools across the country
have begun to install metal detectors and to search students for weapons at the
door. Though the murder rate has dropped in recent years, for a while shootings
were so common in some cities that newspapers didn't bother to report all of
them.
People often buy guns because they feel afraid they might become victims of a
crime. According to John Donohue of Stanford University, however, "criminals are
more likely to use a gun if prospective victims are carrying guns," creating a
vicious cycle. With all these guns so easily available, is it any wonder that so
many people are dying?
On the other hand, guns are legal and widely available next door in Canada.
How many people are murdered with guns in Canada annually? About a hundred.
