其中一个译名是The Bad Kids。另外一个译名则是Cat's Cradle。
那么，这部剧和猫有什么关系呢？
Cat's Cradle的字面意思是：猫的摇篮。
其实，它另外一个意思是“翻花绳”游戏。相信很多人小时候都玩过吧。
Cat's cradle definition is-a game in which a string looped in a pattern like a cradle on the fingers of one person's hands is transferred to the hands of another so as to form a different figure.
