【辛普森家庭】A word with you. 這句常在電視劇裡看到的話是甚麼意思？

Homer因為被公司砍掉年終獎金而被迫去打工才能為孩子們買聖誕禮物，意外找到一個購物商場的聖誕老人臨時工，專門坐在聖誕樹下給小朋友拍照、聽取小朋友的聖誕願望。卻偶然被和朋友去商場玩的Bart意外發現自己老爸最近特別晚回家的真相。

(have) a word with sb. ：有話和sb.說，這裡的「話」有點像是警示的話、警惕，一般來說用在上到下居多。

例子：

1. I made teacher angry at school this morning, and he will have a word with my parents about my behavior this week.
2. Boss said your work is doing awful, he wants to have a word with you.
3. Mom has a word with you about your addiction to sweets and afternoon desserts.
