7. George: I'm sure it will all work itself out. You know, it's funny running into you both. I happen to have extra tickets to a bonsai exposition in Mount Pleasant Friday night. Would you like to go?
work itself out：这里是指药起效果。BREE说REX的医生把剂量调高了2倍，因为REX的病没什么起色，她怎么也不会想到是GEORGE动了手脚。Bonsai：盆景
8. George: Strictly platonic. But if you feel threatened?
Strictly: 严格地, 确实地 platonic: 柏拉图主义的, 理想的
9. George: So are you going to make a purchase today?
Bree: Do you know, I've finally convinced Rex to buy his first orchid.
George: Make sure you study up. I hate people who own precious flowers and don't know how to take proper care of them。
Rex: You know what I hate? Weeds. They just pop up out of nowhere and you have to work so hard to get rid of them.
George: I find that with the right chemicals you can get rid of anything.
make a purchase: 买东西相当于BUY convinced sb to do sht: 说服某人做某事 orchid: 兰花
study up: 这里是做好准备的意思 pop up: 突然出现 get rid of: 摆脱, 除去
这是GEORGE和REX的一段对话，相当有趣，不知道大家有没有听出引深意义呢，orchid其实是比喻BREE，GEORGE是说REX不知道如何珍惜关爱BREE，而REX说GEORGE是野草weeds，突然冒出来，他会想尽一切方法祛除掉。

13. Sales Assistant: Only for centuries. I went through it all when I was carrying my eldest. The truth is, you're never going to fit a child safety seat in the back of that tiny spider anyway. The four doors are much roomier.
carry my eldest: 怀着长子，这位销售小姐不只生了一胎，国外生2，3个不希奇。child safety seat: 儿童安全椅，在国外，婴儿如果坐在车内，一定要坐在一个婴儿专用的儿童椅中，Lynette的小女儿坐的那个就是。
