加比:只是假设,这个女儿能被其他家庭收养吗?如果有人匿名检举了这位母亲。
鲍伯:是的,只要收养人不是举报人,因为从“假设来说",她会不得好死的。
Gaby: Hey,There's my favorite lawyer. As it happens,I need some good legal advice.
Bob: You mean free legal advice.
Gaby: Well,yeah.Free is good. So let's say hypothetically I know a woman who's in this country illegally.
Bob: You mean carmen.
Gaby: She's not the only illegal I know. Half of carlos' family scaled a fence at some point. Now,let's say this woman's daughter is an american citizen.
Bob: You mean grace?
Gaby: Hello! Still hypothetically. Now,could the daughter stay here with another family if,say,somebody anonymously reported the mother to immigration?
Bob: Yeah,as long as it's not the somebody who called immigration,because hypothetically, she'd be burning in hell.
Gaby: Oh,come on. Carmen wants to drag grace all over guadala-somewhere while hector figures out a way to sneak back into the country.
Bob: Gaby,you can't do this. They're a family.
Gaby: Just tell me-is it legal or not for me to keep her?
Bob: Yes,technically,it's legal. But just because something's legal doesn't make it right.
Gaby: Okay,jeez! You don't have to jump down my throat. Like I said,it was just... Hypothetical.
