I've got boiler plate around my heart.

Author’s comment

“That’s what you promised. You moved me—and I’ve got boiler plate around my heart.”

Перевод слова boilerplate - "шаблон" - здесь явно не подходит. Boiler plate, похоже, имеет здесь позитивную окраску, в то время, как слово "шаблон"=" банальность" имело бы негативную.

bolder modes of communications

Author’s comment

Now, if ever, the hope of the world’s survival seemed to rest on a leap out of mere logic into a recognition of new and bolder modes of communication.

мой вариант: Теперь, когда на карту было поставлено выживание человечества, оно как никогда казалось зависящим от того, удастся ли ему совершить скачок от простых и логичных к новым, более рискованным способам взаимодействия.

Buy out

Author’s comment

‘Buy out, girl!’ he told her with sudden harshness. ‘Buy out and stay out!

Судя по тексту, выкуп здесь не причëм, он говорит ей, чтобы она держалась подальше (stay out), а вот что ещë?

Можно ли перевести идиому sit pat как "отпираться". По контексту это кажется ближе всего.

Спасибо!

Author’s comment

But there is a chance that Calitri hasn’t heard of my activities. Our drunken friend in Positano may have been bluffing.’ ‘That’s true. You won’t know, of course, until the verdict has been handed down from the Holy Roman Rota. Whether Calitri knows or not, he won’t make any move until after the case is over.’ ‘So I sit pat.’...

‘Have you ever mentioned my connexion with you to anybody else?’ ‘Well, yes. To Chiara and to another friend. Why do you ask?’ ‘Because in that case I’m afraid I can’t sit pat.

Что может означать "list of angels" в следующем отрывке?

Look, lover boy, you know how films are made in this country. The money comes from everywhere. The list of angels stretches from Napoli to Milano, and back again. There’s a black list here, too, just like in Hollywood...

Author’s comment

Контекст: Газетчик пытается купить у актëра кино компромат на одного из влиятельных спонсоров. Непонятно, "список ангелов" - это список актëров или список спонсоров, так сказать, "благодетелей", которые, если что не так - запишут в "черный список", и тогда считай, что актëр не жилец.
