Gloria: Who drank all the coffee?
Jay: Oh, I, uh, I had quite a bit of that. You know, I haven't, um, been sleeping too well. There's actually a funny story about what's causing that.
Manny: Mom, I'm fully aware of the changes your body is going through, and that nasal stuffiness is very common during pregnancy, but we got a crisis in this house. You've been snoring. But I got you these nasal strips. In the commercial, the old man's angry red sound waves turn a gentle blue.
Gloria: So I'm like an old man?
Manny: No!
Gloria: Like a dog then? A pig? What is it, Manny? I'm an old man, a dog, or a pig? Jay, help me out here.
Jay: You've heard it. I don't know what the boy's talking about. If this is a glimpse of teenage, Manny, I don't love it. Have a little respect for your beautiful mother.
Gloria: Thank you, Jay.
Manny: You're right. Sorry, mom.

格洛丽亚：谁把咖啡都喝了？
杰伊：哦，我，嗯，喝了不少。你知道的，我最近睡眠一直不是很好。话说原因很有趣。
曼尼：妈妈，我非常清楚你现在身体上的变化，怀孕期间鼻塞也很常见。但咱们家正面临危机，你一直都在打鼾。我给你买了止鼾鼻贴，广告里那老头鼾声如雷都能治。
格洛丽亚：你把我比作老头？
曼尼：不是。
格洛丽亚：那就是像狗一样？像猪？是什么，曼尼？我是像老头还是狗或猪？杰伊，你帮我说说话。
杰伊：你也听见了。我不知道这小子在说什么，他可能是到青春期，这样不好哦。你应该尊重你漂亮的妈妈。
格洛丽亚：谢谢你，杰伊。
曼尼：你说得没错，对不起，妈妈。

quite a bit
相当多
quite a bit是美语俚语，意思是“相当多，相当”。和bit相关的俚语有很多，如a bit of，它是“一点儿，少量的”的意思，例如：
1．Have a bit of patience．请忍耐一下。
2．Get a bit of rest．休息片刻。
相近的还有a bit of a…，意思是“有点儿……（的味道）”，例如：
1．He's a bit of a girl．他有点儿像女孩子。
2．I am a bit of a reader myself．我自己好歹也是个读者。
a glimpse of
瞥见
glimpse是“须臾一瞥，瞥见”的意思。如果要说“爸爸用眼睛一瞟，发现儿子又在打游戏”，英文的表达方式是Out of the corner of the his eye, the father caught a glimpse of his son playing on-line games again．而“我瞥见了杰姆”可以说I caught a glimpse of Jim.
a glimpse of还可以表示“看到未来的走向，或是未来的发展”。例如：When my boss was talking about the history of Eastbay Tech, I caught a glimpse of the company's future．当我的老板谈到东湾科技的历史时，我看到了这家公司的未来。
类似的表达还有a sight of，sight是“看见，瞥见”的意思，所以catch sight of字面上就是“捕捉到某个景象”的意思，英文可以解释为notice或是suddenly see。如：
I suddenly caught sight of my colleague in the crowd．我在人群中突然看到了我的同事。
