Анекдот - Свободный человек

On the way home, she notices a tear in his eye (по дороге домой она замечает слезу в его глазу) and asks if he's getting sentimental because they're celebrating 50 wonderful years together (и спрашивает, не потому ли он расчувствовался, что они отмечают 50 чудесных лет вместе).
He replies, «No, I was thinking about the time before we got married (нет, я думал о времени перед тем, как мы поженились).
Your father threatened me with a shotgun (твой отец угрожал мне ружьем: to shoot /shot-shot/ — стрелять + gun — ружье) and said he'd have me thrown in jail for 50 years (и сказал, что он бросит меня в тюрьму на 50 лет /to throw-threw-thrown/) if I didn't marry you (если я не женюсь на тебе). Tomorrow I would've been a free man! (завтра я был бы свободным человеком)»
