1
- RUBY: Welcome to Day 1,127 of our video diary for today, we'll be eating the gumdrops that we've been collecting over the years.
2
- ICE CUBE: Yeah!
3
- PENCIL: And that's right! And personally, I'm going to start with my favorite color, the-- wait, Ruby, let me look at the camera.
4
Ruby! You forgot to remove the lens cap this time!
5
How can I trust you to be my camera gem when you mess up simple things like this?
6
- Uhh, I don't know what a lens cap is, but I'm sorry.
7
- Ruby. A lens cap is this circle thing in front of the camera you have to remove before recording.
8
- Oh. - Oh my bubble blower, I've gotta eat this green gumdrop it's, I found it on the ground and I'm pretty sure it's okay, bgom!
9
- Hey, uhh, Ruby, I hate to be too inquisitive, but if you don't know a lens cap is, is there a chance you've been recording all these video diaries with the lens cap still on?
10
- Um... maybe?
11
I mean, I dunno. The world is a pretty strange place, and anything can happen. - So that's why nobody has been watching our diary; it's just been a black screen all this time! Oh my tree, all these years of documenting... reduced to shavings!
12
- - And it is terrible. - Mmm, I don't feel bad.
13
- Bubble, how can you not feel bad? Three years of our work has just vanished in an instant!
14
- Well, I'm so used to my entire life disappearing in an instant, that it doesn't really affect me anymore...
15
- Fries! What the corkboard are you doing?
16
- Isn't it pretty clear, Pin? Figure it out yourself.
17
- Uh, nothing's poking out at me.
18
- Do you see what I have to deal with!? This is the last fry!
19
All the others have either rotten away, gotten burned by Firey, or were EATEN by Gelatin.
20
So if I want to stay alive in this hostile Yoyle environment, which uhh, I kinda wanna do, then I'd better get to work on growing potatoes!
21
- Ooh, so you're gardening! How cute!
22
- hnngggwhoa! Bomby, what are you doing here? I haven't heard you say anything in a long time; how many lines do you have in this episode again?
23
- Two! - Hmm, I need help loosening this soil, and this hoe isn't even really helping.
24
Do you think you can help me out a bit?
25
- What? - Fries? What do you mean?
26
- Oh, you know...
27
- Our diary followers have no idea what's happened to us in the last three years.
28
- Oh well, it's no big deal. Hoy hoy!
29
- They have no clue who is eliminated in BFDIA 6!
30
- What happened?
31
- Oh, Icy, it was Puffball, with 1,455 dislikes...
32
- Wait, Ruby, where did you get those results?
33
- It's a secret? You'll never knoooooow!
34
- Oh, give me that!
35
- Uaah! Well why don't you come and get it, Pence-Pence?
36
- Ruby, stop it! This is dangerous!
37
- Na-na-na-na-- - FIREY: : Aaaaaaaaah-- - Oh hey, Firey.
38
Ruby, now you've done it! Whoa! Pull me up!
39
- Huuuuuunngh...
40
- Aaaaaaaaaaaah- - Oh, great, not again, okay, everybody, sprint down the Yoyle Needy and catch Pencil before she hits the ground!
41
- I know a faster way!
42
: Wheeeeee!
43
- No, Ruby! You'll die!
44
You're safe and sound with me, Pencil!
45
But don't act so rowdy anymore.
46
- Seriously, it was all Ruby's fault...
47
- Aaaaaaaah!
48
- I've got to— - No, Ice Cube, you can't.
49
It's too dangerous!
50
- Aaaaaaaah!
51
- Wow, that was selfless.
52
- Well, now we gotta recover Bubble and Ice Cube from the Hand-Powered Recovery Center.
53
- Don't forget Ruby!
54
- Wait. How did Ru—ah, whatever. It figures!
55
- Sorry for annoying you earlier, Fries, But I must say... I'm glad you're growing potatoes!
56
I've missed their taste ever since we moved to Yoyleland, since they... don't... grow here.
57
Hold up, I thought potatoes couldn't grow here.
58
Too little sun, or something?
59
- I was thinking the same thing, but Tennis Ball...
60
Oh, Tennis Ball.
61
He developed this new strain called Grotatoes, that can still grow with slightly less sun.
62
He warns me there might be side effects, but at this point I'm desperate, so whatever!
63
- Ooh, Grotatoes? Sounds delicious!
64
- A'listen. Listen. I don't know what your "point" is, but these Grotatoes...
65
They're not for eating; they're for me.
66
- Sorry. Why is making friends so hard?
67
- Hey, guys!
68
Whoa! Pin! You lost your color, too? Just... like me.
69
- What are you talking about, Nickel? You've always been gray.
70
Anyway, Golf Ball told me she could extract the red pigment from my body and re-shape it into my new limbs!
71
Since they have the same chemical structure.
72
Isn't Golf Ball the best?
73
She always knows how to solve everything!
74
- I don't know how to solve, like, anything.
75
So I'm glad we're finally going to be able to learn from other scientific endeavors.
76
- Hmm, yeah, that sounds nice, but who are these others again?
77
And how do you know whether this building really is what you think it is?
78
- Well, I think it's a science museum, because the sign says "Science Museum".
79
And we're here now. Let's go in.
80
- I really don't think this is necessary.
81
- It is. - But there's so much science to do in the outside world. - GOLF BALL: There is not.
82
- Well, why would you ever want to enter a dilapidated old building?
83
- To find science treasure.
84
- Stop right there!
85
What do you think you're doing?
86
- Needy-- - Don't call me needy!
87
- Needle, We're going to enter the Science Museum of Yoyle City on our eternal quest to create innovation and creation.
88
- ...you just said "create creation!".
89
- Whatever it is, you can't do that!
90
- Why? - Uhh, it's secret! But it's because of FreeSmart!
91
- Needle, why don't you just go slap a few strangers for me; tell you what they probably call you Needy- - - behind your back.
92
Come on, TB.
93
I wonder what that was all about. Needle's been acting quite loopy lately.
94
But look at this place! It's got treasures just waiting to be...
95
stolen.
96
- Uh, are you okay?
97
Oh my place where tennis balls are created! It's a Wall Teleporter!
98
I've always heard about these things, but I never knew they were a reality!
99
- Yeah! See, aren't you glad you came here?
100
- Yes. I mean, now that I think about it, nobody's been in this building for years, so what's the big deal if I just borrow this for a bit?
101
I've always wanted to know what it feels like to use this.
102
- Okay, let's see what's in this next room over...
103
- UNKNOWN SHADOW: Where are you, bozo? You need punishment.
104
You can't hide forever, bozo!
105
- Golf Ball! Snap out of it!
106
Jeez, that's the second weird episode you've had since we entered this building.
107
Stay focused.
108
- No, no, we need to leave.
109
- Golf Ball, we haven't even seen 10% of the gadgets yet! - Listen, I don't know why, but we have to go now.
110
- That, is the first time I've ever seen you make a decision irrationally. But, if you insist.
111
- Hey Pin! Whatcha got going on here?
112
- Trying to make friends with Fries! He's growing Grotatoes.
113
- Ooh, Grotatoes? TB told me those things are gonna taste...
114
DELICIOUS!!!!! - I sure hope so!
115
- I'll be the first to eat one. In fact, I'll try one right now...
116
- - Coiny! They've barely begun growing! You need to be 20 times more patient!
117
- Sheesh. You need to calm down.
118
Take a deep breath. You know, a "deep-fried breath"!
119
- Oh my tater!
120
- Hey Pencil, now that we gotten Firey punished, and all, - AAAAAAHH-- - do you think we should, focus our efforts on bringing Match back from the TLC?
121
- Uh, maybe.
122
- Aren't you best friends? I thought you'd be a little more eager to see her again.
123
- I mean, we're doing just fine without her, aren't we?
124
Match was a little too needy-- --anyway.
125
- Really? You never told me Match was needy-- --before.
126
- Oh, yeah. Match was over the top, crazy, make you question your faith in Pencilanity, needy!
127
But that's in the past.
128
Let's just recover Bubble or Ruby, and Ice Cube now.
129
- YOY!
130
- Yay!
131
- Yeah!
132
- So, Pin, It's been about six months. How do your new limbs feel?
133
- Still a little tingly, but getting better!
134
- Hey, coin creature! Guess what I got?
135
It's a wall teleporter!
136
- Wow! That is so cool; my absolute favorite thing in the whole world!
137
Also, what's a Wall Teleporter?
138
- Well, according to the instructions on the back, it can teleport anybody through a wall of up to six inches in width.
139
But it can only teleport one person at a time.
140
Pretty amazing technology, if you ask me.
141
- Hey, the Tiny Loser Chamber's walls are five inches thick!
142
Now that is one lucky coincidence. We can finally free my boys -- SB, Pen, and Blocky and we can also free Eraser too.
143
- Oh, that's a good idea! But the Tiny Loser Chamber is also inside the Locker of Losers which adds another five inches of metal wall.
144
- Actually, on the second page of instructions, there's ultra-power mode. Which allows you to through walls of up to twelve inches!
145
But, it'll take several weeks to charge up for such an extreme energy usage!
146
- Well, that's not too bad.
147
Those 40 or so guys have been waiting to be freed for three to four years!
148
A few extra weeks can't hurt them.
149
- Oh, yeah, you're right.
150
- Guys, let's head over to the LOL now!
151
- Fries? Do you want to come with us? It'll be fun!
152
- Ehh, it's fine. I'm pretty busy right now. These Grotatoes need to end up perfect.
153
- Okay, so the plan is to shoot this Thingamadoodle into the Tiny Loser Chamber to pull somebody out, wait a month or two, and repeat the process.
154
Sound good?
155
- Yeah! - But how do we choose who to save first?
156
- Well, obviously you bring Snowball out first.
157
He's a great guy, he doesn't deserve to be in that prison any longer.
158
- Are you kidding me?
159
Are you kidding me?!
160
If anything, Snowball deserves to be in the Locker of Losers...
161
FOREVER- - I think we should extract Roboty!
162
Because Golf Ball told me Roboty's red tint could be used to re-color me!
163
- No, According to my calculations, Barf Bag would be the best guy to get back.
164
Then we could finally contain Rocky's vomit.
165
- Bulleh! - Do you have trouble deciding who to save from the Tiny Loser Chamber? If so, then buy our-- I mean... let the viewers vote!
166
That's right, if you're watching this video, then leave a comment saying who you wanna come back!
167
The person with the most votes gets to come back into the show!
168
- BOOK: Hey! Viewers! Since I am an IDFB Tips and Tricks Guidebook, I might as well put in my two cents.
169
- COINY: Put me down!
170
- BOOK: If you wanna recommend a character or discuss anything about this episode, go to the links in the description.
171
This season, there are going to be so many opportunities for recommended characters to actually join the show!
172
- RUBY: Like me!
173
- BOOK: Yes Ruby, like you.
174
So go check it out!
175
- Hey, Fries, I brought some boiling frying oil, so we can finally do some deep fried breaths!
176
- Please tell me you are not actually doing this.
177
- Okay, so we breathe, and then we deep fry it.
178
Ready? - I'm not participating.
179
- COINY: One...
180
- FRIES: C-Coiny, just stop! - COINY: Two...
181
- FRIES: Coiny! Coiny! No! - COINY: Three...
182
Aaaaaaah! - FRIES: You're insane! Just stop!
183
See you in IDFB 2! (:

¿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.
