WAYF:
For anyone who's wondering, I ran Ellen's lines through Google Translate, and she's really embarrassed that Maurice was able to beat her in Beer Pong.
I also learned some rudimentary German today. Knowing the sort of person I am, this one may come in handy:
Es ist mir so peinlich = "It is so embarrassing".

A little remark about something which is not really translateble: "Es ist mir so peinlich" states that she is embarressed by it, not that something is embarrassing in general.

I feel neglected. :-D
And if translated true to the meaning it would even be "It is so embarrassing to me."

@cesariojpn:
Wherever did you get "boorish sexual deviants" from? °O

Hey natives, would "it embarrasses me (so)" do the trick?
