英文台词

旁白：这世上摧残美好的人不胜枚举，源起于何？漫天扯谎，为保真爱。恐惧未来，愤怒伪装。心存愧疚，拒人千里。没错，万事事出有因，一旦我们找出原因，我们才能阻止它们。

Keith: What are you doing to your roses?

Bree: Pruning them.

Keith: Looks like you're killing them.

Bree: I know it looks bad, but sometimes you have to be ruthless if you want something beautiful to keep growing.

Voice-over: The world is filled with people who do ugly things. Why do they act this way? some lie to keep from losing what they love. Some lash out because they fear the future. Some put up walls because they have regrets. Yes,everyone has a reason for the ugly things they do...And once we find out why...Then we can try to stop them.
