影片對白  No, we just take them out of the equation.

 

6. clear shot

A shot from a gun, nothing is blocking the shot. 毫無障礙的射擊。

7. You're deeply nuts.

Nuts 作為形容詞是指“熱衷的，發狂的”，所以這句話的意思就是“你真是瘋狂”。

8. gut feeling

內臟常有什么樣的感情？我想沒人說“高興得腸胃都歡騰”，倒是“惡心地胃里一陣難受”比較常見。Gut feeling 就是指“不好的感覺”。

9. outranks your gut

這里的gut 是指“內心的感覺”，因為Jack 剛剛說了 gut feeling，所以 Harry 也就沿用了 gut，但意思略有不同。這句話的意思是：麥克的級別比你的感覺要高。

劇情簡介 Plot：Jack Traven and his partner Harry Temple are SWAT team explosives experts in Los Angeles. They're called in to free a group of office workers from an elevator that's trapped between floors in a downtown high-rise. Howard Payne, an explosives expert who used to be with the Atlanta, Georgia bomb squad, has promised that they'll all be blown to bits unless he's paid off. Traven and Temple rescue the hostages, but Payne escapes. Later, while Traven is out getting coffee in his neighborhood one morning, Traven witnesses a city bus explode, killing the bus driver (Travens friend). Traven picks up a nearby ringing pay phone, only to hear Payne warn that another bus, filled with innocent commuters, has been wired with a bomb. When the bus reaches the speed of 50 miles per hour, the bomb becomes armed (speed detected by an assumed speed sensor on the rear axle), and if the bus drops below 50 after that -- or if any passengers are taken off the bus, or if the ransom isn't delivered at the appointed time -- the bomb will explode. Traven alerts the bomb squad and goes after the bus, boarding it as it speeds through rush-hour traffic on a Los Angeles freeway. One passenger, a thug fearing arrest, pulls a gun and accidentally wounds the driver, so passenger Annie Porter has to take the wheel while Traven makes radio contact with headquarters and plans a rescue. Annie is perfect for the job too, because she is currently without her license because of a speeding ticket. The bus must be kept moving faster than 50 MPH, so it's given a police escort that clears the way until it can be rerouted onto an airport landing strip. Then Traven, Temple, and Payne begin a deadly game of cat and mouse. Temple tries to figure out where Payne is hiding, while Traven tries to figure out where on the bus the bomb is hidden and, once he finds it, he tries to figure out how to disarm it. (answers.com)
