You've got some balls, girl.
It was an impulse. I've never nicked before. I mean, nothing big.
Why now?
Means to an end.
You enjoyed it, though.
Yeah. So can you sell it for me?
Might take a few weeks.
Why?
Well,gotta find you the right fence, get you the best price.

And it's just one job.
Yeah, I know.
If you rip me off, I'll fucking kill ya.
Snap.
【单词】
1. loose
/lu:s/ adj. 松散的；未固定的
🌰
1. The rope was too loose to hold the boat securely.
这根绳子太松了，无法牢固地拴住船。
2. She wore a loose dress that allowed her to move freely.

2. ball
/bɔ:l/ n. (非正式，此含义常用复数形式) 胆量；勇气
🌰
1. It takes real balls to stand up to your boss like that.
敢那样顶撞老板，真是需要很大的勇气。
2. He had the balls to jump off the cliff into the water.
他真有胆量从悬崖上跳入水中。
3. fence
/fens/ n. 销赃人（黑市买卖赃物的中间人）
🌰
1. The police arrested the fence who had been dealing in stolen goods for years.
警方逮捕了一名多年从事赃物买卖的销赃人。
2. She needed a fence to help her sell the stolen jewelry.

4. rip
/rɪp/ v. （俚语）欺骗，敲诈
🌰
1. The mechanic tried to rip me off by overcharging for the repairs.
那名修理工试图多收钱来欺骗我。
【俚语】
1. necked'em=necked them（necked them是过去式，一般现在时态是neck them）
这里的 neck 是一种俚语，意思是快速吞下东西。结合上下文，necked'em 表示把偷来的钻石吞下肚子，以藏匿它们。
2. You've got some balls.
这句是用来夸人勇敢或有胆量的俚语，类似于“你真有胆量”或“你真敢"。用来形容对方敢做大胆或危险的事。
3. leg it
快速逃跑，这里是指偷了东西之后赶快逃走。
4. hair of the dog
俚语，源自比较古老的说法-以毒攻毒，通常指宿醉后再喝一点酒来缓解不适。这里指的就是解酒的意思。
5. means to an end
“为达到目的而采取的手段”，它指的是某种行动或过程本身并不是最终目标，而只是为了实现某个更重要的目标或结果所采取的步骤或方法。
6. I wouldn't promise that.
“达到目的的手段”，在俚语或非正式的对话中，可以传达出一种对未来的怀疑或者暗示“你最好不要过于自信”。
🌰：He doesn't enjoy his job, but he sees it as a means to an end—saving enough money to start his own business.
他并不喜欢他的工作，但他把它当作实现最终目标的手段——攒够钱去开自己的公司。
7. snap
表示彼此一样或者我同意，通常用在认同或回应类似的情况，相当于 same here 或 me too。
8. loose stone
loose stone通常指未镶嵌的宝石，特别是钻石、红宝石、蓝宝石等珠宝。当这些宝石还未被镶嵌到首饰中，比如戒指、项链或耳环里时，它们就被称为“loose stones”。
在某些情况下，“loose stones”也可以泛指没有固定用途、独立存在的石头，可能用于珠宝设计、收藏，或者作为投资。由于这些宝石还没有镶嵌，它们更容易被交易或加工。

一时冲动。我以前从没偷过，至少没偷过什么大的。
