Narrator: After I died, I began to surrender the parts of myself that were no longer necessary. My desires, beliefs, ambitions, doubts—every trace of my humanity was discarded.
在我死后，我呈交出自己不再需要的部分。我的欲望，信仰，野心，疑虑 —人性中的每一抹痕迹都被丢弃。
I discovered when moving through eternity, it helps to travel lightly. In fact, I held on to only one thing，my memory.
在穿越来生的时候，我发现那使我能轻装上路。事实上，我只保留了一样东西，我的记忆。
It's astonishing to look back on the world I left behind. I remember it all —every single detail.
回头看自己身后的世界真是令人吃惊。我记得所有事情，每一个细节。
Like my friend Bree Van De Kamp. I remember the easy confidence of her smile, the gentle elegance of her hands, the refined warmth of her voice.
就像我的朋友Bree Van De Kamp。我记得她那悠闲镇定的微笑。她那举止优雅的双手，她那优雅温和的声音。
But what I remember most about Bree...
但Bree给我印象最深刻的是…….
Rex, wasn't that lovely –
Rex，那真是可爱，不是吗 –
was the look of fear in her eyes.

Bree had started to realize her world was unraveling, and for a woman who despised loose ends, that was unacceptable.
Bree已经开始意识到她的世界正在被瓦解，对于一个凡事讲究完美的女人而言，那是无法接受的。

Rex，Rex，你应该起来了。
Rex: It's not even light out.
天都还没亮。
Bree: Please hurry. If the kids see you sleeping down here, they're going to start asking questions.
请快点。如果孩子们看到你睡在这里，他们会开始问一些问题。
Rex: Let 'em ask. I don't care anymore.
让他们问吧，我不再介意了。
Bree: Well, I care. They don't need to be burden with our marital problems. While we're working things out, the least we can do is try to keep up appearances.
但是我介意。他们不应当承受我们婚姻问题的压力。当我们解决这些事情的时候，我们至少应该试着保持体面。

Rex:We're in marriage counseling, Bree. I think that would confuse things.
Bree，我们在咨询婚姻顾问。我不想因此而引起误解。
Bree: It's just I miss you.

Rex: I know you do. Of course, if I don't find out start getting some sleep, pretty soon. I'll be forced to move back upstairs out of sure exhaustion.
我知道。当然，如果我不能想办法睡着，很快。我就会精疲力竭而被迫搬回楼上。
Narrator:Yes, Bree was afraid of many things, but if there was one thing she wasn't afraid of...
是的，Bree害怕很多东西，但是如果说有哪样东西她不怕……
It was a challenge.
那就是挑战。
