Grace: Nonsense.
Walter: I'm not the most vibrant of individuals.
Grace: A bit serious, perhaps.
Walter: You'vehit the nail on the head there. Grace.

“標題很爛”。都臭了，還不爛么？
2. all over

4. hit the nail on the head
這個片語也寫作hit the bull's-eye，hit the mark on the head，意思是“be absolutely right 絕對正確”，比如：Your remark about finances hit the bull's-eye. 你關于財源的看法絕對正確。
