A Very Wrong Engagement

Script comparisons

Below are a set of original translations, and the dub script for comparison, provided by head writer Jared Hedges for a Q&A at http://www.myspace.com/shinnohara

S=Shin G=Georgie (Kazama in Japanese) M=Maso

  • M: Say, how much is your allowance, Kazama-kun?
  • G: About 500 yen a month, I guess.
  • M: Wow, that's a lot! I only get 100 yen a month!
  • S: You could build a whole house...!
  • G: Get real! And pull your pants up!
  • M: Say, what about your allowance, Shin-chan?
  • S: I don't have one'.
  • G: Pull your pants up!
  • S: I get money from my mom when I want some. But all she ever says is, "What's it for?! Don't you dare waste it!" when she gives it to me.
  • G: Why don't you have her set a monthly allowance, then?
  • S: Guess I will!
  • M: Yeah! It's nice not having to ask for money all the time!
  • S: But she might not go for it.
  • G: Then why not go on strike?
  • S: A good pitcher's throw?
  • G: Not that kind of strike!
  • S: So what do I do?
  • G: You refuse to help her until she gives you an allowance, for example.
  • S: I see!

Dub script written by Joel Bergen:

  • M: Hey Georgie, how much allowance are you getting these days?
  • G: A sweet 50 bills a week, plus stock options.
  • M: Wow. That's a lot. Are your parents doctors, lawyers, or Jews?
  • S: You could buy a whole monkey with that!
  • G: And you could buy a brain. Now pull up your damn pants already.
  • M: So Shin, what kind of allowance are your folks giving you?
  • S: A whole lotta nothing.
  • G: Pants! Pull up your freaking pants!
  • S: Whenever I need money I have to ask my mom for it. But she never gives me any. She thinks everything I want to buy is dumb. What's wrong with Viagra, and Action Bastard tighties?
  • G: You know how sad that makes you? You're an embarrassment to kids everywhere. She's playing you for a sucker!
  • S: (lands) Crowd goes wild!
  • M: Hey you know what? You should ask for a weekly allowance so you don't have to keep begging for money!
  • S: That'd be sweet, but what if she won't go for it?
  • G: Go on strike, like one of those lazy teamsters?
  • S: Throw a baseball at my mother?
  • G: Not that kind of strike, moron!
  • S: Okay, I'm confused.
  • G: Stop doing chores. That's what our Meximaid does whenever she wants a raise from my dad.
  • S: Oh, I get it!
