Creando lección...
1
Jake wins, Amy loses.
2
A year ago today, Peralta and I made a bet to prove who's a better detective.
3
Whoever makes more felony arrests wins.
4
What are the stakes?
5
And don't say money because I know you're in debt.
6
I'll bet whatever because there's no way I'm losing.
7
What about your car?
8
Oh!
9
What's the worst thing in the world for you, Santiago?
10
Being one of those girls in Jake's car.
11
Okay, okay, okay, then it is settled.
12
If Peralta loses, Santiago gets his car.
13
If Santiago loses, she goes for a date in said car.
14
Game on.
15
Game on.
16
Pen.
17
Whoop!
18
Ow!
19
Roll the chair!
20
Captain, hey.
21
I'm not going to give you more cases so you can win your bet with Santiago.
22
What?
23
Oh, right, the bet.
24
Totally forgot about that.
25
The fallout from this bet has the potential to put a strain on your professional relationship.
26
Only if I lose, I'm a terrible sport.
27
Cases will be assigned as they usually are.
28
Dismissed.
29
Captain, you look...
30
No. Ladies and gentlemen, I present Carl Lawson, who stole $3,000.
31
Santiago takes the lead with one minute left.
32
Suck it, Peralta.
33
Bring in the Johns.
34
I ran a prostitution stank through Vice and arrested 30 guys for soliciting.
35
That's not a felony!
36
It is when it's your second offense, which is the case for ten of these gentlemen.
37
Fun fact, four of them are actually named John.
38
Ironic.
39
Anywho, ten more for Peralta, accept your fate.
40
Never.
41
Five, four, three, two, one!
42
Jake wins!
43
Amy loses!
44
Look!
45
Look!
46
Amy Santiago!
47
Date time!
48
Time to date!
49
Peralta, this outfit is ridiculous.
50
Chop, chop.
51
There's plenty of embarrassing to do and only a few hours to do it in.
52
Happy?
53
Oh, yeah.
54
You look like every girl at every bat mitzvah I ever had a crush on.
55
Let's see the bow.
56
Just like Jenny Gildenhorn.
57
Why do I wish you had braces?
58
Should we get you braces?
59
No, that's too much.
60
Here I come.
61
Nice shorts.
62
Thank you.
63
Believe it or not, they were not very expensive.
64
Do I really have to wear this all night?
65
You know the rules.
66
The date starts now and ends at midnight.
67
I decide what you wear, what you eat, and where we go.
68
Oh, and there is one more rule.
69
No matter what happens, you're not allowed to fall in love with me me.
70
Won't be a problem.
71
Well I'm sorry that I can't stay but I have a terrible night planned for Amy.
72
Jake do you know why little boys pull little girls pigtails on playgrounds?
73
Because they're so easy to grab they're just begging to be pulled.
74
Because they like the girls and that's the only way they know how to get their attention.
75
What are you saying?
76
All of this season, this elaborate date, somewhere down deep, you like Amy.
77
Like, like her, like her.
78
Okay that's straight up insanity.
79
Santiago and I will be performing the steerage jig from the film Titanic, which we have prepared for in no way, shape, or form.
80
Romantic.
81
No, embarrassing.
82
M'lady.
83
Oh, sorry.
84
Yeah! Do the spinning!
85
I hate your guts.
86
Channel that passion into the dance!
87
Geraldo.
88
Scully, tag in.
89
Okay!
90
Keep spinning.
91
What?
92
Yes.
93
One of our informants just called.
94
We've been tracking a crew that lifts cargo out of LaGuardia.
95
The CI knows where the trucks unload, so I need you to stake out the drop site.
96
Oh, sir, I'm right in the middle of this date, and I cannot reschedule.
97
I have far, far too many non-refundable deposits.
98
I'm renting a Tiger Cub by the hour. For what?
99
Don't even know.
100
Waiting for inspiration.
101
Well, this is not a negotiation, so go.
102
All right, fine, but I'm taking Santiago with me.
103
As soon as we're done, it's back to the date.
104
Darling, brief pause.
105
Duty calls.
106
Oh, thank God.
107
Fine, darling, I'll ask him.
108
Will that make you happy?
109
Excuse me, sir.
110
Oh, we're kinda busy here.
111
Yeah, my girlfriend here thinks we're lost.
112
No, I know we're lost.
113
I think he's an idiot.
114
Idiot?
115
You know why we're out here in the middle of the night?
116
Susan, I was gonna propose to you.
117
On the Brooklyn Bridge, where we met.
118
Brooklyn Bridge?
119
We met on the Manhattan Bridge.
120
You know what?
121
This is over.
122
Say goodbye to the ring and everything it represents.
123
You son of a bitch!
124
Hey, hey, stop yelling.
125
No one talks to Susan like that.
126
And you know what?
127
On the ground, NYPD!
128
You're under arrest!
129
Nice work.
130
You too.
131
I'm sad y'all arrested me.
132
I gotta say, I'm glad you're back together.
133
Ow!
134
My lucky face!
135
The focus of our investigation is a guy named Brandon Jacoby.
136
He did seven years at Riker for assault.
137
We spent two weeks undercover infiltrating the gym.
138
Gym-fultrating it.
139
You ready, Sarge?
140
I was born ready.
141
And then I was not born ready for a while, but now I'm back to being born ready.
142
Terry Jeffords is back!
143
Chest bump me!
144
You don't want to do this, man.
145
No, I really do.
146
It hurts you every time.
147
No, I know, but I'm fired up.
148
The adrenaline is gonna carry me through.
149
Here we go.
150
Somebody at the door.
151
Hey, Sarge.
152
Sorry about the mess.
153
Hi, Cagney.
154
Hi, Lacey.
155
I'm gonna kiss the girls night-night, and then we can get down to business.
156
You know what?
157
I just wanna let you guys know that I love you girls so, so much.
158
Okay?
159
So sleep tight.
160
You know, daddy will never leave you.
161
Right, girls?
162
I'm worried about Terry.
163
Jake, where are you? In here.
164
We have to get Terry off this case.
165
What?
166
Why?
167
He has children.
168
What happens to them if he gets hurt?
169
I'll have to take care of them.
170
Or his wife or other family or his more mature friends, but interesting point.
171
What are you guys talking about?
172
International taxes and tariffs.
173
Listen, man.
174
I know everybody's worried about me being psychologically ready for this, but I promise you I am.
175
Frankly, I'm not so sure that everyone at the gym is gonna buy you as a trainer.
176
You've been sitting behind that desk for so long, you've gotten a little tubby.
177
You sure you can lift this much weight?
178
Are you kidding me?
179
I was the strongest kid in my camp seven summers in a row.
180
One, and I'm done.
181
That's it.
182
Good rap.
183
Don't wanna get too bulky.
184
Excuse me, sir.
185
Can I borrow this machine?
186
I need to be here to keep an eye on a friend.
187
Hold on.
188
I'm on my last set.
189
Can you go any faster?
190
I mean, what do you need leg muscles for anyway?
191
You're like 100 years old.
192
Socially acceptable for you to roll around on a scooter.
193
What's the count?
194
No!
195
One.
196
One?
197
Get your hands off me!
198
I've heard about this in the news.
199
You're cyberbullying me!
200
I'm getting the manager.
201
Get the hell away.
202
No, you're very misinformed.
203
Please don't.
204
Damn it.
205
What's up?
206
Good workout.
207
You know, it's weird.
208
I've never worked out with you before.
209
What'd you say your regular gym was?
210
I didn't.
211
Brooklyn Bulk Fitness.
212
Huh?
213
I work out there too.
214
Never heard of any Trent.
215
I don't know why.
216
I work out there all the time.
217
Really?
218
Starting when?
219
NYPD, hands on your head!
220
My God, you're gigantic.
221
You blew our cover, man!
222
Now I gotta go into an interrogation with no evidence and try to get Jacoby to rat out his disfibutors.
223
Look, I'm sorry I got jumpy.
224
I wasn't thinking straight.
225
It was all the exercise.
226
The blood from my head rushed into my delts.
227
Point to your delts, Jay.
228
What's my name?
229
Terry Jeffords.
230
What is my name?
231
The Ebony Falcon.
232
And what does the Ebony Falcon do?
233
Takes every precaution to ensure his own safety.
234
Takes bad guys to jail and bad girls to bed.
235
Hell yeah, he does.
236
Except now the Ebony Falcon is monogamous and too tired for sex, so his only indulgence is fresh fruit yogurt parfaits.
237
Terry loves yogurt.
238
Hang on a sec.
239
Who's this guy?
240
Says he's a personal trainer at the gym, but he has no regular hours.
241
He always makes last-minute appointments, always in the boxing area, and always late at night.
242
And look who he trains.
243
Brandon Jacoby.
244
That's probably your supplier.
245
All right.
246
We should set up a tactical team and hit the gym.
247
And Sergeant Jeffridge should stay here and keep interrogating Jacoby for as many hours or years as necessary.
248
Let's go.
249
All right, we're all set for the sting.
250
I told Vladimir to meet Vance Vandervaven, a.k.a me, here at 10.
251
Hey!
252
Peralta!
253
Boy!
254
Sarge, hey!
255
I'm so psyched you made it here to the sting that I definitely told Charles to tell you about.
256
You lied to me!
257
I can see that you're upset, but let's just sit down and talk about it.
258
Done talking!
259
Time to dance.
260
Why are you cutting me out of the operation?
261
What?
262
That's crazy!
263
Boyle, come in here and stand in front of my body and tell him that's crazy.
264
Ow!
265
My lucky face!
266
You gonna talk to me now?
267
No, wait, wait, wait!
268
I was worried!
269
Worried about what?
270
About you getting hurt.
271
Tacks one and two are set, 30 minutes until the bogeys arrive.
272
Thanks, Boyle.
273
I love it when you say bogeys. So we good?
274
We good.
275
Hey!
276
You been stranded, Faithen?
277
Yeah, that's me.
278
I'll be right there.
279
You gonna let me do this, man?
280
What choice do I have?
281
You hit me in the arms so hard they no longer work.
282
Hey, my arms don't work.
283
Can you scratch my nose?
284
You bet.
285
Mm-hmm.
286
Yeah.
287
Thank you.
288
This song is a celebration song for when a dog loses its virginity.
289
Who checks that?
290
Brief me on the hotel robberies.
291
Most humans say hello at the beginning of a conversation.
292
Someone's been breaking into the room, stolen over $100,000 in jewelry.
293
We're heading over there now.
294
Keep me updated.
295
Another helpful hint.
296
Goodbye.
297
It's learning.
298
What?
299
I have to admit, I do love a thorough vacuumer.
300
I'm a little OCD.
301
What?
302
No, you're not.
303
I can leave it there.
304
Totally.
305
It doesn't bother me.
306
I know.
307
There it is.
308
Oh, boy.
309
Have you seen anything unusual today?
310
Oh, no. What is this music?
311
This is from my country, near Krakowia.
312
Do you like it?
313
Do you like it?
314
Melon pon, mischiliasio mischior polier, polier so rog...
315
Kassou!
316
This song is a celebration song for when a dog loses its virginity.
317
Who checks that?
318
Aha!
319
The jacket.
320
This case is heating up.
321
Ooh!
322
Receipt in the pocket.
323
Duster for prints.
324
And send a scan to boil.
325
Yes!
326
You're feeling it now.
327
Woo!
328
Receptionist just spotted DeSanto entering the Salieri ballroom.
329
What's going on in there?
330
An auction of Greek antiquities.
331
I believe it's pronounced antiques.
332
Hello everyone, my name is Roger Strikewell and I will be your guest auctioneer this evening.
333
So many faces to look at.
334
I won a radio contest and I'm
335
so excited to be here tonight to sell you all of these cool old Greek things.
336
Our first item up for bid is lot number 344.
337
It is this old vase, a vase if you're nasty.
338
It was made in the year five and depicts the classic Greek fable,
339
boy meets girl, boy has goat legs, and on the back, just a whole bunch of wheat.
340
So let's start the bidding at $10.
341
Oh, yes, here.
342
Okay, started way too low.
343
This is terrible.
344
You don't know what you're doing.
345
Adam Sandler?
346
Yeah, that's right.
347
I collect antiquities.
348
I'm a serious person.
349
All right, back to this plate.
350
I think you could use it for a variety of things.
351
New item up there.
352
How much you guys want to pay for me to stick my socks in this moron's mouth?
353
I will.
354
Did football legend Joe Theismann just bid $1,000 to put a sock in my mouth?
355
You bet.
356
Okay, but let's get it going a little higher.
357
Seriously, back to the porno plate.
358
Ah, $1200.
359
Sock in the mouth.
360
Boom.
361
Okay, the idiot gets the sock in the mouth full.
362
I'd say $1300 would be even better.
363
$1300.
364
Joe Theismann coming in store.
365
I got $1300.
366
$15,000.
367
And a one.
368
I got a two and a boom!
369
Sold to Joey Theismann!
370
Can I stick the sock in his mouth?
371
I'll pay extra.
372
Yes, you may, because I just sold my item to the man in the gray shirt at table 18.
373
NYPD, you're under arrest.
374
Heading your way.
375
Oh, my leg!
376
My leg!
377
My leg!
378
You broke my other leg!
379
Uh...
380
Oh, this was supposed to be a safe event.
381
Nothing to see here!
382
Hello, Perota.
383
Ah, a human greeting.
384
Nicely done.
385
Updates on the case.
386
Well, you're gonna love this one.
387
We busted the guy for grand larceny, and to celebrate, Santiago is taking a job interview at Major Crimes.
388
Can you believe that?
389
Yes, she told me yesterday.
390
What?
391
Why didn't you try and talk her out of it?
392
You'd literally shave her head if you asked her to.
393
Which, by the way, is a great idea for a prank, if you're looking to prank her.
394
Santiago wants to make Captain one day.
395
I know because I frequently caught her wearing my hat and looking into a mirror.
396
Dismissed.
397
I support her decision.
398
That's what good detectives do.
399
They have each other's back, no matter what.
400
I'm sorry I said you were a bad partner.
401
When you said you were gonna leave, I freaked out and I was dumb.
402
I should have been more supportive.
403
You're a great detective, and they'd be lucky to have you.
404
I already turned down the job.
405
Seriously?
406
In the end, you were right.
407
I don't want to sit at a desk.
408
And right now, I like where I am.
409
Oh.
410
But thanks for thinking I'm great.
411
No, I take back all the things I just said.
412
Uh-uh.
413
You said I was a good detective, and you were nice.
414
This is my nightmare.
415
Looky, looky.
416
Thought I saw your big white ass lumbering around.
417
That's for you, Santiago.
418
Well now you certainly showed your true colors, didn't you?
419
And they're a shade of pink called loser.
420
Alright, everybody just calm down.
421
There's no reason we can't be friends.
422
Here, I brought you a peace offering.
423
Run!
424
Uh-oh.
425
Don't move as a group.
426
You're not gazelles.
427
Uh, adult parties?
428
Sergeant, I believe they're called orgies.
429
No look five.
430
I met my wife at an orgy.
431
Well, she was leaving an orgy, and we bumped into each other on the street.
432
Real meet-cute.
433
Everyone here needs some instruction on interacting with grown-ups.
434
No staring at your phones, no rolling in two hours late, no sweatpants, no jeans, and no shorts.
435
What about dress-up shorts?
436
For instance, the kind Jen Aniston I wear.
437
No. Those are still shorts.
438
No shorts.
439
Ah, detectives.
440
Meet my husband, Kevin.
441
Hi.
442
Nice to meet you.
443
Evening.
444
So glad you could make it.
445
Ah, and look, he brought us some wine.
446
Drink.
447
This is legally called wine drink.
448
May I pour you some of this wine drink you brought us?
449
Perhaps all of it?
450
OK, gang, we need a new strategy.
451
Totally.
452
What is going on out there?
453
We can't tell cop stories, Kevin doesn't find me charming, and a native English speaker referred to Captain Holt is hilarious.
454
I am flummoxed.
455
That's a word I learned for this party, and I am it.
456
Well, I'm doing fine.
457
Really?
458
Raymond, those slacks are a knockout.
459
Do you think he heard that?
460
Only because you yelled it.
461
Shut up.
462
From now on, we play to our strengths.
463
Charles, you know everything about food.
464
That's all you talk about.
465
I mean, I don't think anyone will ever know everything about food.
466
It's an evolving discipline.
467
That's great stuff.
468
It's so boring.
469
Don't waste it.
470
Amy, you studied art history.
471
That's interesting.
472
Scully, opera.
473
Hitchcock, nothing.
474
Talk about nothing.
475
Rosalie, stick with Gina.
476
Make sure she doesn't say anything insane or steal anything.
477
Too late.
478
Don't worry.
479
It's just like hats and scarves and stuff.
480
She will put those back.
481
I will handle the chitchat.
482
Well, that just leaves you, Peralta.
483
What's your cultural specialty?
484
Easy.
485
Kevin mentioned the New Yorker, and I've totally read that.
486
Keep a low profile.
487
Chuckle at anecdotes.
488
Try not to start any conversations.
489
Got it.
490
Wait a minute.
491
You're hitchcocking me?
492
Well, not surprising.
493
We're practically twins.
494
Be appropriate, on three.
495
Quietly.
496
One, two, three. Be appropriate.
497
Now break it up.
498
We look weird.
499
Right.
500
Don't move as a group.
501
You're not gazelles.
502
Stop eating crab wrong.
503
And then if I catch you on that phone again.
504
Oh my.
505
Don't worry.
506
I'm due for an upgrade and my babies are on a clock.
507
He is so strong.
508
What are you doing here?
509
I...what?
510
I'm not...what are you doing here?
511
I need to find a New Yorker that kept me left by the bed
512
so I can justify this whole pro-slavery stance I've backed myself into.
513
Detectives!
514
Sarge, I see that you, like I, came up here to chastise Santiago.
515
Amy, this is low, even for you.
516
I cannot believe you would both violate the please stay downstairs rule, which was prominently posted.
517
Get out of here.
518
I don't know why we have to have this discussion again.
519
What do we do?
520
Bathroom.
521
Bathroom.
522
Why are you upset with me?
523
Your employees are the ones putting a damper on the party.
524
They are acting terribly.
525
You're the one who's been acting terribly tonight.
526
You've been curd and snobby with my guests.
527
You've been needling poor Peralta so much you practically made him a new suit.
528
Needled him a new suit.
529
Even when we're fighting, you're hilarious.
530
Stop it.
531
Stop it.
532
Oh, no. Dog, allergies.
533
Pleasing.
534
No. Get away.
535
Shh.
536
Grab the dog.
537
Look at me.
538
Do not blow this for us.
539
You know what?
540
I knew this wasn't going to work.
541
It never has.
542
We should have just gone out for dinner to a restaurant like we do every year.
543
Why did you make me invite them?
544
I made you invite them because I like them.
545
They're good people.
546
Santiago, are you hiding in my bathroom with a dog that you're deathly allergic to?
547
No. Occupied?
548
It's so sticky, but it feels so good.
549
Charles has been so happy and confident ever since he hooked up with that professor at the captain's party.
550
He could take it down just a smidge.
551
If you like being a collider.
552
Dead guy, Charles.
553
Sorry. But whatever.
554
I can handle the singing.
555
I'm just so happy for that guy.
556
It's about time he caught a break.
557
The sexy train is leaving the station.
558
Check out this caboose.
559
Later, sluts.
560
Just let him have it.
561
Great job, Boyle.
562
You're going full boil.
563
What?
564
I am not.
565
What's full boil?
566
Any time Charles gets into a new relationship, he gets way too intense, way too fast, and it always ends in heartbreak.
567
We met on the subway, went out to dinner, and I told her I loved her.
568
And my mom was so happy, and then the barbershop quartet I hired started to sing.
569
And then she broke up with me.
570
Russ!
571
Joanna!
572
No!
573
Courtney!
574
Russ!
575
I know when I'm going full boil.
576
Trust me, this is different.
577
I have it under control.
578
Hi, Vivi.
579
It's Chuckle Bunny.
580
I'm just calling about dinner tomorrow.
581
I can't wait to see you, my luscious little breakfast quiche.
582
I just want to draw you a bubble bath and spoon-feed you caviar.
583
I think we should open up a joint checking account.
584
I love you!
585
What am I doing?
586
It's okay.
587
I hung up right after Chuckle Bunny.
588
Help me.
589
I've gone full pile.
590
Vivian, you look beautiful.
591
I love your dress.
592
Oh, you too, Charlie.
593
You look so handsome.
594
Steady.
595
This is my friend Bernice.
596
Ah, hello, I'm Jack-tractive.
597
Jack-tractive?
598
Yes.
599
My parents were hippies.
600
I wanted to be a cop when I was a kid, mostly because I love Die Hard.
601
Die Hard?
602
Really?
603
Mm-hmm.
604
Well, that makes sense.
605
Everyone loves that movie.
606
Oh, not like me.
607
I sleep in a Nakatomi Plaza security t-shirt.
608
Oh.
609
When I was a kid, I had the cutest golden retriever named Rufus.
610
That is the most amazing thing I've ever heard.
611
I want to meet him!
612
I love the Nets so much.
613
You're a Nets fan?
614
I love the Nets.
615
Oh, my God.
616
This season has been a disaster, right?
617
Yes.
618
And everybody blames it on Jason Kidd.
619
Yes.
620
But it's like at a certain point, Billy King is the one who put the team together.
621
Yes.
622
Wow.
623
I love rainy days.
624
My mother loves rainy days.
625
You should meet her.
626
Excuse me.
627
Pew, pew, pew, pew!
628
Signal!
629
Bernice and I are gonna use the ladies' room.
630
Hurry back!
631
Oh, no. Jake, I can't stop looking at her butt.
632
Yeah, you are definitely making her uncomfortable.
633
And this beautiful, basketball-loving, die-hard fan is tearing down my walls of defenses!
634
If we find out that she is half-Jewish, we are all doomed!
635
Anyways, Charles wanted me to reiterate how sorry he is.
636
Here is your coat.
637
I've gotta run.
638
If you wouldn't mind using the back exit, it'll be much safer.
639
Trust me, I'm a cop.
640
New York, right?
641
I'm gonna go ask Vivian to marry me.
642
Bye.
643
No!
644
Give me that!
645
Take.. give that back!
646
I'm doing this for your own good.
647
You've gone full boil.
648
I'm helping you out.
649
Give me that for my girl.
650
I'm gonna pepper spray you.
651
Pepper spray me, I will pepper spray you!
652
No!
653
No!
654
No!
655
Ah!
656
Ah!
657
Ah!
658
Ah!
659
Ah!
660
Ah!
661
Ah!
662
Ah!
663
Oh!
664
It's so sticky, but it feels so good.
665
Hey.
666
I checked your phone.
667
There were 100 texts from Vivian worried about you, a selfie that I can never unsee, and dozens of voicemails.
668
She's full-boiled.
669
Full-boiled for boil?
670
I took the liberty of texting her and telling her to come meet you here.
671
I thought you might want to give her this.
672
Or something considerably nicer.
673
That is definitely not platinum.
674
Yes!
675
Aw.
676
Charles is engaged.
677
You handled this really well Peralta.
678
I take back what I said about you being immature.
679
Apology accepted, fart monster.
680
Okay.
681
Oh, okay.
682
This is turning into a live sex show.
683
Yeah, let's go.
684
Oh no, I wasn't saying it in a bad way.
685
Jake!
686
Yep.
687
Although they can't see us.
688
Jake!
689
Yep.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
