Guardian:
你放心,我一定不会一概而论地去处置的, don't worry, I'm not going to go and deal with everything like it was all the same
总而言之,以后在他手底下卖命就辛苦你了, in short, from now on you'll take your orders from him, poor you
万一哪个包藏锅心的歹徒破门而入,那就不好说了, if some evil-intended hoodlums break in, we'd be up a gum tree
我不想跟你吵好不好, I don't want to fight with you, okay?

Me:
别说情况都一样,不能那样一概而论吧。
他们是一只吵架的,怎么这么合不来。

yeah, that particular flashback :(
Everything falling apart, and he's trying so hard to do the Right Thing. :-(

Also news to me that it's not a thing where you are :)
Exactly! I think of gum trees as being Australian, so I was surprised, though of course I'm not familiar with all Australia chengyu. *googles some more* Ah, this page suggests the saying might have originated in America. /totally off-topic, sorry!
