来て / 買われた / スピードを出す

Hi,

1. くわしくせつめいして来てほしいんだ。
This is said to someone who is being asked to go (not come) to a business meeting. I have translated it as "You'll be required to explain things in detail", but I don't understand what meaning 来て is adding.

2. 原田さんは奥さんに高いコートを買われた。
The translation given is "Mr Harada's wife bought an expensive coat (and he is unhappy)." Could this also mean "Mr Harada was bought an expensive coat by his wife" (i.e. she bought it for him and gave it to him)? If not, why not, and how would you write the latter?

3. あんなに、スピードを出すんじゃなかった。 This is translated as "I shouldn't have gone so fast". Why doesn't it mean "I didn't go so fast"? Where does the "shouldn't have" sense come from?

1) It means they'll go and come back. Although I must say that I've seen it used right after "I won't be able to see you again," which I found strange.

2) I think no, because the particle を with the passive many times indicates the "adversity passive," and the context strongly points in that direction too. If she bought it for him a giving verb would have been used, like 高いコートを買ってもらった.

3) It's in the のだ construction. のだ can be used to say something is the thing to do. Since it's negative and past, it means it wasn't the thing to do. From Dead or Alive 2 (I think): 俺の後ろに立つんじゃねえ。("Don't stand behind me," i.e., it's not a good idea). In the sense in your sentence (i.e., negative past) it's similar to しなければよかった.

Previously I've come across ね and ねえin the meaning "indicates emphasis, agreement, request for confirmation, etc." Here is ねえ a negative imperative?

1)
When you use 行く, the form should be "the -masu form stem of the verb + に行く" or 説明しに行ってほしい. ～て来る means "to go somewhere, do something and come back" as Glenn-san explained. Incidentally, "the -masu form stem of the verb + に来る" is for "to come to do something," i.e., 説明しに来てほしい is the form to ask to come to explain.

Right. That's a rude/manly form of ない.

Thanks guys.

Could this be interpreted as she bought the coat intending it not for Mr Harada but for someone else ?
Would 買われて しまった make a difference here ?

Or is another possibility that Mr Harada wanted to buy the expensive coat and his wife ended up pre-empting him by doing the deed instead ?
