12
What's one more?
13
I'm not playing this game, Pam.
14
Not today.
15
I don't think you love Smokey Robinson.
16
I think you're just doing all of this to prove how deep you are about music.
17
Okay, I'm sorry that I'm not a fan of Jason Mraz or The Beatles.
18
You don't like The Beatles?
19
That's not the point.
20
Eleanor Rigby, paperback writer?
21
Okay, you know, you always think you have time to see these legends before they go.
22
What was I so busy doing?
23
It says here the Smokey Robinson dead thing is a hoax.
24
It's on CNN as of two minutes ago.
25
Okay, well, that's a relief.
26
Wow, look at that.
27
It says he's actually playing state college.
28
It's only three hours away.
29
Oh my god, Ryan, that's perfect.
30
You have to go.
31
Tickets are 250 bucks.
32
$250 is nothing to the world's biggest Smokey Robinson fan.
33
Yeah.
34
Who's opening?
35
Paul Anka.
36
Paul Anka?
37
How can they make the Smoke Man play with someone like that?
38
I don't think I can see this.
39
Okay, you could just show up late, though.
40
How much is parking?
41
Like, 30 bucks?
42
That's not what Smokey would have wanted, does want.
43
Tears of a clown.
44
Don't call me a clown, Pam.
45
You're better than that.
46
Today's my first day at my new job at Michael Scott Paper Company Incorporated.
47
You know, Apple Computer started in a garage.
48
And we're starting in a condo.
49
Look.
50
It's official.
51
Oh, good.
52
My hooker's here.
53
Are you wearing anything under the robe?
54
That is inappropriate, Pam.
55
Come on in.
56
This looks great, Michael.
57
Thank you.
58
Would you like some French toast?
59
Yes, please.
60
What shape?
61
Square is fine.
62
All right.
63
So how are you feeling about the new company?
64
I feel good.
65
Wow.
66
I'm excited to start the company.
67
After breakfast.
68
We did that.
69
Michael, just stop for a second.
70
Michael, stop for a second.
71
No, I'm whipping him.
72
No, I know you are.
73
Just let me have...
74
Just give me...
75
Fine.
76
Oh, I'm sorry.
77
I can't do this.
78
This is pathetic, isn't it?
79
I am such an idiot.
80
I gave up the only job I ever loved to do this.
81
I have egg in my Crocs.
82
I feel weak today.
83
I felt much stronger yesterday.
84
Like Benjamin Button in reverse.
85
When I feel overwhelmed...
86
I'm not overwhelmed, Pam.
87
I know.
88
No, I'm saying that when I feel overwhelmed, something I like to do is make a list.
89
Make a list of things to do, and then start with the easy stuff.
90
Whatever calms you down.
91
OK, work out.
92
And hey, look.
93
You did that.
94
Check.
95
Eat an enormous breakfast.
96
Check.
97
Don't patronize me, Pam.
98
I think you should get dressed.
99
I'm not getting dressed.
100
I'm not getting dressed.
101
I have too many things to do before I get dressed.
102
I need to find a hundred clients.
103
Michael, that seems impossible.
104
It's totally impossible.
105
We need to come up with one realistic thing that we could do today.
106
Assemble a sales team, a dream team.
107
Great.
108
Ryan.
109
No, what?
110
Why?
111
He's everything I'm not and everything I am.
112
It's the whole package.
113
No, we're not going to hire Ryan.
114
Um, oh, Vikram, best salesman I've ever met.
115
OK.
116
He worked at that telemarketing place.
117
Also, we have a meeting this afternoon with a potential investor.
118
Really?
119
We have an investor already?
120
Maybe.
121
Barbara Kivas.
122
She invests in local businesses, and I'm putting together a little presentation for her.
123
Michael, that's fantastic.
124
Yeah, I guess it's not so bad.
125
Got a few things cooking.
126
Um...
127
Hey, find office.
128
How are we gonna find an office?
129
How can we pay for an office?
130
Next on the list, song parodies.
131
Okay, okay, achy -breaky fart.
132
Great, let's sing it in the car.
133
We got Vikram you got me when you put your telemarketing career on the line
134
You're not putting very much on the line.
135
We have a meeting with an investor today.
136
Yes, we do so get excited But I have to go to the bathroom real quick if you'll excuse me
137
He seems really confident he can be confidence It's the fool of the wise man, but the liquor of the fool.
138
I would like a pair of size nine, please.
139
It's Michael.
140
Swamps, Michael.
141
Happy birthday to Sally in lane 27.
142
Okay.
143
Imagine a company that has no memory of your past misconduct because they have no files.
144
Is it possible he's bowling?
145
I mean, you know him better than I do.
146
Yes.
147
Well, he's always been a lifelong career.
148
Michael!
149
What's going on?
150
I am bored.
151
Hey, Ryan.
152
Hey, you.
153
Excuse me.
154
Yes?
155
This wasn't on the list.
156
Yes, it is.
157
No. Yes.
158
It's not.
159
It is.
160
When did you add this to the list?
161
Pam, everyone deserves a second, second chance.
162
Ryan, just out of curiosity, how much do you get paid here?
163
$60 ,000 a year.
164
You get paid by the year at the bowling alley.
165
What do you make, Secretary?
166
Back to work, shoe bitch!
167
Told you guys some really busy years.
168
Would you like to come to work for the Michael Scott Paper Company?
169
Hey, come on, guys.
170
These are prime selling ours, you know.
171
Do you guys want to hear about Thailand?
172
Oh, yeah.
173
Sure.
174
It was indescribable.
175
Sounds so awesome.
176
What sort of investing club business?
177
Victor, you ask a lot of questions, and I like that.
178
Hey, Nana!
179
Hi!
180
Nana, do you remember that whenever I used to lose a tooth, you would give me money?
181
Yes.
182
I knew it.
183
It was you.
184
I am not putting my tooth under the pillow today.
185
I am putting my entire career under the pillow.
186
Is that worth a quarter?
187
More?
188
I have spent the last 15 years learning the ins and outs of the paper industry with a lean, mean fightin' crew and low overhead.
189
I think I can perform the same business at a much, much higher rate of profit.
190
I thought Nana raised some good questions.
191
What kind of a name is Nana?
192
It means grandmother.
193
Oh, sweet jesus do you want to smoke pipes during our
194
meeting let's wait until we have something to smoke about yes
195
of course aaron maybe i could sit in on this with you you know
196
that way i can cover you in case you need to urinate
197
or you just want another opinion or defecate i don't think
198
so well i just thought with my new increased responsibilities
199
and all yeah i'm still figuring out the two -man bobsled here
200
so let's hold off on the d -man for now who's
201
your favorite iron atrocious you go first the ticketing software paints
202
a picture of a sloppy careless error -brown office well the
203
monitoring software is a double -edged sword sometimes the information go ahead did you need something from us yes
204
your attention uh because
205
no
206
that is all last week an accounting mistake resulted in a
207
client getting their order for free oof that's not good chalk
208
that one up to tweedledee
209
and tweedledum out there who are they they're both kevin oscar is the sex in the city gang
210
and angela if you can sometimes i feel like you don't know me at all i would agree with
211
that simply end the mistakes and the mistakes
212
when i come back next week and this report shows me no mistakes we can talk about names all day
213
our favorite names silly made -up names normal names said in a silly voice wouldn't that be nice
214
i would like that and the mistakes that's all i ask
215
and you can't have a favorite iron chef it depends entirely
216
on the secret ingredient sometimes i feel you don't know food at all
217
I may have a little solution to our mistakes problem.
218
This is a project I've been working on for quite some time, and today might be the day to use it.
219
What do you got?
220
Allow me.
221
You're gonna love this.
222
I should have used a shorter string.
223
Never mind.
224
I know it by heart.
225
It is a system that holds people accountable for everyone else's work.
226
Sounds controversial.
227
Have I not been worthy of your trust?
228
Have I not been a reliable number two?
229
Do not go there.
230
You're the deuce I never want to drop.
231
I'll set it up right now.
232
I just need your go -ahead.
233
Go do the voodoo that you do so well.
234
I will do my voodoo.
235
Maybe this is it.
236
Maybe I finally have a boss who will respect my ideas and let me try stuff.
237
I'm shaking.
238
Dwight and I have implemented a new program that we like to call...
239
Dwight?
240
The Accountability Booster.
241
It registers every time a mistake has been made in the office, from a late delivery to an accounting error.
242
Five strikes in a day.
243
equals a home run, one home run, and you're out.
244
If we as a group make five mistakes in a day, something bad happens, like we block Minesweeper, or we spoil an episode of your favorite TV show.
245
Worst of all, the disapproving Andy face.
246
Or in this case, an email gets sent to Robert California containing the consultant's report from last year.
247
Remember the one that recommended the branch be shut down?
248
And as a fail -safe, also, every negative email you've ever written about him to the
249
group will also be forwarded to him what emails are you
250
talking about robert's favorite songs creep by tlc creep by radiohead remember
251
that one jim uh there's no way he hasn't strangled at
252
least one stripper oscar he eats his yogurt like he is punishing it for disappointing him kelly
253
that actually ps we should kill him wait
254
so you installed a doomsday device no it's an accountability booster which
255
when it goes off it destroys everything very similar to a
256
doomsday device jim you're trying to make me sound like some kind of evil maniac now the point is is
257
that we are now working in an environment where we have accountability to each other i am confident
258
that you guys are equal to the task um no we're not
259
and you are a psycho who is ruining our lives we can't do this this is Smile.
260
Nod.
261
Smile and nod.
262
All right, everybody.
263
Looks like we need to be getting to work.
264
Be extra careful.
265
Don't check everything, or the accountability booster will get you.
266
Let's not make any mistakes today, or at least no more than four.
267
This could be real.
268
Dwight's pretty handy with computers.
269
He fixed my laptop once.
270
Okay, you didn't fix it.
271
The brightness level was all the way down.
272
You couldn't fix it.
273
I wasn't here that day.
274
Yes, you were.
275
There's an easy way to tell if this device is a sham.
276
We just make a mistake.
277
I'll send an order down to shipping before we've received payment.
278
Pretty strong start, Gabe.
279
Yeah.
280
You want to forfeit?
281
Say your prayers, buster.
282
I'd say the same, but even God can't help you now.
283
Leave, Gabe.
284
Gabe and I play Scrabble on our phones, and the winner gets to pick the movie we watch.
285
I have won no games.
286
So far, I've seen The Shining, Rosemary's Baby, The Ring.
287
Not really my thing.
288
Although, I do like the early parts of the movies where they have a perfect family and everything.
289
Bam.
290
Bam. Is jilp a word?
291
Jilp?
292
J -E -L -P?
293
No, J -L -P.
294
Like, I jilp.
295
I jilp you.
296
I don't think that's a word.
297
I'm playing Scrabble with Gabe, and I've never won a game.
298
You want some help?
299
Really?
300
Mm -hmm.
301
Yes.
302
I'm not letting Gabe do this.
303
Jim and I used to play Boggle against each other, and when he would win, he would get so cocky about it.
304
It ruined Boggle for me.
305
Ruined words for me.
306
Boggle, um, yes.
307
I am pretty good at boggle.
308
Is that guy still here, by the way?
309
K -A.
310
Ka?
311
What does ka mean?
312
It means you're playing someone who's going to destroy you.
313
Why did you play moo?
314
Because I'm playing to win.
315
I'm playing moo, I'm playing milk, whatever it takes.
316
Okay, but look, you could have hit mooed.
317
You could have played a triple word.
318
Like the cow mooed yesterday. Or moon?
319
A cow jumped over the moon.
320
She's stuck on that one thing.
321
No, it doesn't have to just be cow stuff, right?
322
A little treat for our old friend Gabe.
323
Put that cue right there.
324
Wait, why?
325
Put the cue there, sweetie.
326
I think there's better place.
327
Put the cue there.
328
Sorry I yelled.
329
You could have just told us what you were thinking.
330
There's no theater in that.
331
There's no yelling in that, either.
332
Well, I know what you're thinking, yes, but if...
333
Oh, screaming.
334
I want to pick up that you.
335
Are you done texting all your boyfriends?
336
I'm not.
337
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
338
Um, so the paper is...
339
You hit the big button.
340
The big button right here.
341
Not that one, not that one.
342
Not on all.
343
The big button?
344
You just press that?
345
It goes right out.
346
Wow.
347
Hey, guys.
348
Hey.
349
Hey.
350
I picked out our movie.
351
It's called Suspiria.
352
It pushes all the boundaries.
353
All your preconceived notions about what horror can be come crashing down.
354
When I win, we're gonna watch WALL -E, where all the boundaries of color are pushed.
355
It is hard to explain why Aaron is doing so well today.
356
The only thing I can think is,
357
Aaron is living out some slumdog millionaire scenario where every word she's playing has a connection to her orphaned past.
358
It's possible.
359
We got it.
360
Wow, we got it.
361
Oscar, wait.
362
I think the victory would be more meaningful if Erin puts the last word in herself.
363
Yes, Pam.
364
Yes, most definitely.
365
Yes.
366
Yes.
367
No.

408
No, no, no, no, no. No, this, hey, hey, hey, hey, this might not be what I think

418
Wow!
419
We...
420
Well, Jan didn't believe in showing affection, so...
421
Sometimes I don't know how to react when a girl touches me.
422
Oh, I like it.
423
Now, a lot of you know that I am an accomplished songwriter.
424
Song parody writer.
425
I have done things like Beers in Heaven.
426
Classic.
427
Or Total Eclipse of the Fart.
428
I love to sing them, but I am not going to be doing that today.
429
I am going to be doing something I wrote specifically for Toby.
430
Do you know, um, Goodbye Stranger, Superdream?
431
Yeah.
432
It was early morning yesterday.
433
I was up before the dawn.
434
And I really have enjoyed my stay.
435
Toby must be moving on.
436
Ah, Toby is the flu.
437
When the flu is attacking your body and making you sick and making you nauseous and throwing up all over the place, you have to sweat it out.
438
And I had to sweat out Toby.
439
And I feel much better now.
440
Come tomorrow, feel no pain.
441
Feel no pain.
442
Toby!
443
Toby!
444
Toby!
445
Toby, come on away!
446
See ya!
447
He's out of here.
448
See ya.
449
He's out of here.
450
Ooh.
451
Goodbye, Toby.
452
Goodbye, Toby.
453
Goodbye, Toby.
454
Goodbye, Toby.
455
Hey.
456
How'd we do?
457
Thirteen dollars.
458
That's great.
459
And we still have most of our stuff.
460
Good.
461
Listen, about earlier...
462
No, no, no, no, no. Let's not talk about that.
463
It was wrong to put you in that position.
464
Michael, you're my life now.
465
I'm not going to Colorado.
466
Shh.
467
You know what?
468
Let's go for a little walk.
469
I want to show you some stuff.
470
So this is one of my favorite places in the world.
471
Why?
472
This is where Toby announced that he was going to Costa Rica.
473
It's the happiest day of my life.
474
Until the day you came to replace him.
475
Let's go in here.
476
and this is where we first kissed i remember and this is where we first made love
477
remember what i tried there michael
478
through these blinds is where i first saw you

500

503
Will you marry me?
504

505
No. That would be hot.
506
I would pay to see that.
507
Will you marry me, Holly?
508
No. Only one that I was kind of worried about.
509
This is where I fell in love with you.
510

512
Fully slack.
513

514

515

516

518

519
All of us?
520
Yep.
521
Wait, what?
522
Holly has to go back to Colorado.
523
I'm going with her.
524
I'm leaving.
525
Speaking of which, I meant to tell you, very impressive, the, uh, donation you gave to Oscar's charity.
526
What was that, 25 bucks?
527
Oh, well, I don't know.
528
Money isn't everything, Jim not the key to happiness.
529
You know what it is?
530
Joy.
531
You should remember that.
532
Maybe you give more than three dollars next time.
533
Well, three dollars a mile is gonna end up being like 50 bucks.
534
So, God, I can't even calculate what you're gonna half of you. Is Oscar around?
535
I just thought it was a kind of a flat, you know, $25 one -time donation.
536
I didn't think it was a per -mile kind of deal, you know?
537
So, well, that's what a walk -a -thon is.
538
I know.
539
It says it right on the sheet.
540
Look, look at the sheet.
541
It says it's however many dollars per mile.
542
Got it.
543
Yes, so it does.
544
I just think it's kind of cheap to undonate money to a charity no no no no no I wasn't
545
that wasn't what I was no it's it's not about the
546
money it's just it it's the ethics of the thing Oscar
547
how's your nephew is he in good shape yeah how many
548
miles did he do last year last year he walked 18 miles son of a bitch
549
that is impressive good for him
550
It's okay.
551
I work in sales.
552
Oscar.
553
Oscar.
554
Yeah.
555
For future reference, just think you should know
556
that you should probably make it clear
557
that your nephew is doing the walk -a -thon and that he doesn't actually have cerebral palsy, okay?
558
I never suggested it.
559
No, no, I know you didn't intend to, but I got the idea.
560
And I just don't think it has a lot of ethical merit to make people think something, you know, and then prey on their emotions.
561
It's not...
562
No, hey, it's just kind of uncool, okay?
563
I just.. play fair, you know?
564
Play fair.
565
Thank you.
566
Thank you.
567
Okay.
568
Happy birthday, Meredith.
569
Read it out loud.
570
Say who wrote everything, so we know who's the best.
571
Happy bird day.
572
Um, Meredith, good news.
573
You're not actually a year older because you work here where time stands still.
574
I don't know about that.
575
That was Stanley.
576
Meredith, happy birthday.
577
You're the best.
578
Love, Pam.
579
Oh, yeah.
580
Thanks, Downer.
581
This is from Michael.
582
Meredith, let's hope the only downsizing that happens to you is that someone downsizes your age. Because of the downsizing.
583
Rumors.
584
And because you're getting old.
585
No, I...
586
I get it.
587
It's funny you didn't get the joke

595
I got that off the Internet website, so don't get mad at me.
596
What's the difference between Meredith and Michael Jackson?
597
Michael Jackson's surgery was unnecessary.
598
You're talking about my hysterectomy.
599
Yes!
600
Thank you!
601
Gosh, she gets it.
602
We are going to do everything humanly possible to ensure that this never happens again.
603
Well, it doesn't help, because it already happened to me.
604
The watermark?
605
It's a one -time thing.
606
I don't care.
607
It was disgusting.
608
Cartoon characters having sex?
609
May I point out that the sex appeared to be consensual.
610
Both animals were smiling.
611
Okay.
612
I grew up on a farm.
613
I have seen animals having sex in every position imaginable.
614
Goat on chicken, chicken on goat, a couple of chickens doing a goat, a couple of pigs watching.
615
Whoever drew this got it exactly right.
616
If cartoon characters didn't have sex then how do we get new cartoon characters?
617
What can I do for you?
618
I for starters, I think that you should resign Okay, well Wasn't really my fault the guys at the paper mill.
619
You're the guy at the paper mills.
620
No, no, no You're the head of the company.
621
I'm the head of the company.
622
Yes, and that makes it your responsibility.
623
No, I'm a regional manager You should lose your job.
624
Okay, this is insane.
625
You can get out of here.
626
Get out.
627
Fine.
628
That's insane.
629
Give this to somebody who will appreciate it.
630
Non -transferable.
631
Doesn't matter.
632
Out, please.
633
I'm calling the Better Business Bureau.
634
Yeah, well, I'm calling the ungrateful biatch hotline.
635
Did you get all that?
636
Everything.
637
The customer is always right.
638
Mrs. Allen was our customer.
639
She was wrong. Is that a contradiction?
640
No, because she's not our customer anymore.
641
We gotta do something.
642
This is spinning out of control, Pam.
643
This is just not...
644
It's just the Scranton Times.
645
No!
646
Then Newsweek picks it up, and then CNN does a story about it, and then YouTube gets a hold of it.
647
You know what?
648
I really think the whole thing is just gonna blow over in, like, a week or two.
649
You're right.
650
It will blow over.
651
But it's not going to take a week or two.
652
Do you know what this is for?
653
Yes.
654
Michael likes me to run the camera when he makes his apology videos.
655
He says he needs a woman's touch.
656
My favorite is the one for his mother.
657
Hey, Mom.
658
Happy birthday belatedly sorry I forgot I had put it on my calendar
659
and then Pam threw
660
that out the one I'd like to forget is the one for the condo association
661
and without denying the seriousness of the situation I would just like to remind you
662
that in much of the Netherlands swimming naked is the norm so Norway you'd be the weirdos my shiny yeah
663
Okay, I think that's good.
664
Okay, that's enough Aquanet.
665
I don't know.
666
Stop it.
667
Hello, I am Michael Scott, regional manager of Dunder Mifflin Scranton.
668
By now, you were probably sick of hearing about Dunder Mifflin and our embarrassing watermark boner.
669
Well, let me tell you something.
670
Something from the heart.
671
I am not leaving this office.
672
It will take a SWAT team to remove me from this office, and maybe not even that.
673
Uh, you could never withstand a SWAT team.
674
That's how devoted I am to this job.
675
I'm just saying.
676
I know.
677
They would flank you, throw in a concussion.
678
I understand that, Dwight.
679
You'd be on the ground.
680
Do you think you're taking it a little...
681
Dumb.
682
Literally, Dwight.
683
If you wanted to be...
684
And now we're wasting tape.
685
I'm going to have to cut this all out.
686
Can you say cut?
687
Cut.
688
So I know where to...
689
Cut.
690
I'm asking Pam to do it please.
691
Cut.
692
Okay.
693
Ready?
694
I need this job.
695
My mortgage is hundreds of dollars a month.
696
With this job, I can barely cover that.
697
I have a company car, but I still have to pay for gas and gas prices are high and I have no savings whatsoever.
698
And it wasn't even me.
699
It's so not fair that they want me to resign.
700
If I could leave you with one thought, remember, it wasn't me.
701
They're trying to make me an escape goat if I am fired.
702
I swear to God
703
That every single piece of copy or paper in this town is going to have the f -word on it
704
the f -word You have one day Um, do you think it would be possible to move to
705
that desk over there because this seems a bit cramped and I don't have a computer Oh, well, that's a sales desk.
706
Yeah, you need to be over here with us accountants.
707
Just sit here and be quiet.
708
And if you have a question, just raise your hand.
709
But I'm going to save you some time, sweetie, and give you the answer now.
710
I don't know.
711
No, I don't think we should be trying to make this place seem unpleasant.
712
I think we should let this place just crush your spirit by itself.
713
I mean, it knows what it's doing.
714
I get it.
715
Last time I had a job, I remember I hated the boss's wife.
716
Of course, she was married to Robert.
717
Hi.
718
Hi.
719
Hey. So, what's good?
720
The individual beef stews are amazing.
721
But I call dibs on all of them forever, so stay away.
722
Same with the salt and pepper chips.
723
So, what can I have?
724
Definitely the fruit.
725
Okay.
726
Actually, the turkey sandwich, when not awful, is not awful.
727
Well, that sounds good.
728
It's not that.
729
Jim, have you seen my new puppy, Fitzgerald?
730
Oh, wow. So cute.
731
Oh, that is so cute.
732
Oh, he's so tiny.
733
Is he in a ladle?
734
Yeah, he's in a ladle.
735
It's adorable.
736
How on earth did you get him in a ladle?
737
He did it himself.
738
Is that ladle stainless or...
739
Oh, stainless, Williamson.
740
Excuse me, waiter.
741
There's a dog in my soup.
742
It's not that kind of ladle.
743
Very cute.
744
Oh, let me see.
745
Just the battery on these things is...
746
I'm sorry.
747
I've got to recharge this.
748
You don't keep a puppy picture from a nice lady.
749
I feel sick.
750
And it was that type of ladle.
751
Yours.
752
Employees don't seem to be taking to me.
753
Andy!
754
Andy, could you step in here, please?
755
We'll fix this.
756
What is going on?
757
Please.
758
Uh, Andrew, my wife has brought up an issue that requires your attention.
759
So, uh, if you'll excuse me, I should step out and get to the ATM before that.
760
Homeless man sets up camp for the night.
761
Okey -dokey, artichokey.
762
You hate it, don't you?
763
You do not want me here.
764
Why would you say that?
765
It's okay.
766
I understand.
767
I'm not sure how I would feel about having the boss's wife work for me either.
768
It's not that.
769
Exactly.
770
But it is something.
771
Let's just say that if you don't want to work here, I am totally prepared to respect that.
772
Why would you not want me working here?
773
I don't know.
774
I think I understand what you're going through.
775
My husband can be a very difficult man to read, can't he?
776
Yes.
777
The dude is an enigma.
778
Mm -hmm.
779
So he is mixed up in this, isn't he?
780
Uh, bleh, bleh, bleh.
781
Got it.
782
Andy and I had a great conversation.
783
And I just want to let you know that I am not going to be working here.
784
Well, that's a shame.
785
It just was one of those things...
786
Because we talked about it, and it seems like that might be what you want, which is fine.
787
Wow, where did this come from?
788
Did Andy say that?
789
No, he did not, but I could tell he was struggling to understand what was expected.
790
What's the struggle?
791
He made a great call, hired a great person.
792
You sure about that?
793
Absolutely.
794
No games?
795
No games.
796
Because Andy seemed to think there was some information he was not able to share with me.
797
Okay, enough of this.
798
I mean, really, enough.
799
It's gotten way out of hand.
800
Andrew, this is my wife.
801
Whatever privacy you were trying to protect between us, I thank you for.
802
But it is not welcome right now.
803
Just be honest.
804
Andy.
805
Yes?
806
Why do you keep looking at my husband?
807
Andy, just answer the question.
808
No games.
809
No games.
810
Okay.
811
I mean, it was kind of funny, actually.
812
Robert storms in, and he says, in four seconds, my wife's going to be in here.
813
I told her she could work here.
814
Under no circumstances can that be allowed to happen.
815
Lying son of a bitch.
816
We'll be right back.

¿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.
