1
You know, Jen, the point of going to the gym is to actually work out.
2
Yeah, I was, uh, just about to.
3
Mm, yeah, sure.
4
Oh, my gosh.
5
You won't believe this.
6
Michael just walked in.
7
What?
8
No way.
9
Why don't we leave before we find out that...
10
Jennifer, where are you going?
11
Oh, my God, Michael, hey!
12
Oh.
13
I missed you.
14
Oh, hey, Jen.
15
It's been a while.
16
Like six months?
17
Well, 181 days and four hours.
18
So in two days to be exact.
19
But who's counting?
20
Okay.
21
Uh, you-you-you working out now?
22
When we were together, you didn't want to go to the gym once.
23
Well, a lot's changed since then.
24
Now I'm here like all the time.
25
Yeah, so anyway, if you're not- Hey, you!
26
Thank you.
27
Is it just me or your biceps getting bigger?
28
No. Hey, I've been targeting my arms a little more recently.
29
Anyways, you ready for the session?
30
Actually, I'm still pretty sore from our last workout, so I was thinking maybe I could just pay you for the hour and we could get protein shakes instead.
31
All right, sure.
32
That's fine.
33
All right.
34
Anyways, it was nice running into you, Jen.
35
And enjoy your workout.
36
But wait, you're just gonna leave?
37
Yeah.
38
Lisa's my client.
39
She paid for the hour. So yeah.
40
Do you want me to wait till you get back?
41
It's fine.
42
I'm sure I'll see you real soon.
43
So six months is coming up.
44
Bye.
45
Mm, okay.
46
Now it all makes sense.
47
Why you wanted to come to this gym?
48
I don't know what you're talking about.
49
I didn't even know he worked here.
50
Mmm.
51
Oh yeah?
52
So you're telling me that you didn't see his newest Instagram post?
53
Which you also liked from your stalker account.
54
Stop playing dumb, Jen.
55
Okay, okay, fine.
56
Okay, for good reason, Adrienne.
57
In two days, it's gonna be six months from our...
58
Break up?
59
I prefer to call it giving each other space to work on ourselves.
60
He told you to never contact him again.
61
People say a lot of things when they're mad.
62
He unfollowed you.
63
He even blocked your phone number.
64
Well, he didn't block my email.
65
So obviously he's still hoping I contact him.
66
Okay, okay, look.
67
After we broke up, we agreed that if we couldn't stop thinking about each other for six months, We meet at the plaza and he'd be waiting there with roses and a ring.
68
And he agreed to that before or after he blocked you?
69
That's not the point, Adrienne.
70
Never mind.
71
Let's go.
72
But you haven't even started working out yet.
73
Where are you going?
74
I need to find out more about this Lisa girl.
75
Something's off with her.
76
Adrienne, come on.
77
Thank you.
78
All right, here we go.
79
You're so funny.
80
What's that?
81
She's flirting with him.
82
He's flirting back.
83
I'm gonna say something.
84
Oh, chill.
85
Okay, you can't do that.
86
You and Michael are not together anymore.
87
Go with me.
88
Look, Jen, I'm your best friend, so I need you to listen to me.
89
You can't force someone to love you.
90
You hear me?
91
Jin.
92
Jin.
93
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Jin, wait, no. Uh, Lisa, I'm sorry.
94
I'm not trying to give you the wrong impression.
95
You have a girlfriend, don't you?
96
I knew it.
97
No, not exactly, but, you know, even though we're not together officially, my heart does belong to her.
98
I knew it.
99
He still loves me.
100
Where are you going now?
101
To get my nails done for the proposal!
102
Come on, come on.
103
Where are you?
104
What if he doesn't show?
105
No. He loves me.
106
I know he does.
107
He's gonna come.
108
Wait.
109
There he is.
110
Hi.
111
Oh, hey.
112
I knew it.
113
I knew it was meant to be.
114
Um, Jennifer, would you...
115
Yes, yes, a million times yes.
116
Wait, what?
117
Right, sorry, I shall let you ask.
118
I know you've been waiting all this time.
119
Um, I was just gonna ask if you wouldn't mind moving over.
120
I'm just trying to get to Clarice.
121
Cla-who?
122
Hey babe.
123
Hey.
124
Are those for me?
125
Yeah.
126
Thank you.
127
Michael!
128
Who is this?
129
This is Clarice.
130
Clarice is my...
131
I actually wanted to ask if I can call you my girlfriend.
132
Yes, of course.
133
I don't understand.
134
This is our spot.
135
This is where we were supposed to meet.
136
Wait, what?
137
What are you talking about?
138
It's been six months.
139
We agreed that if we couldn't stop thinking about each other, we'd meet here and you were gonna propose.
140
Oh.
141
I totally forgot about that.
142
I'm...
143
Sorry.
144
Babe, we're gonna be late for dinner, so we should probably go.
145
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
146
Um, so sorry for the mix-up, but take care.
147
Bye.
148
I'm so sorry, Jen.
149
But I guess this is the final confirmation that you needed to move on.
150
Move on?
151
That is the last thing I'm gonna do.
152
Oh, my
153
God.
154
Oh, Good morning, sunshine. Are you...
155
Untie me.
156
Let me go.
157
Why are you doing this?
158
Because nobody, not even you,
159
is gonna come between me and the love of my life.
160
He doesn't love you.
161
You need to let it go.
162
Oh my gosh.
163
Have you been stalking me?
164
I like to call it research.
165
You're insane.
166
You need help.
167
What are you gonna do to me?
168
Well, I could tell you. Or...
169
I could show you.
170
No, no!
171
I'm just kidding.
172
I'm not actually gonna hurt you.
173
I'm just gonna keep you here long enough for Michael to forget all about...
174
Stay here.
175
I think you have a choice.
176
I'll be back.
177
Michael, what a surprise.
178
What are you doing here?
179
Can I come in?
180
Yeah, sure.
181
I'm sorry to show up like this, but Clarice isn't answering any of my phone calls.
182
Oh, um, is everything okay?
183
No. No, it's not.
184
I don't understand.
185
She completely just cut things off.
186
She thinks that I'm in love with you.
187
What?
188
Why would she think that?
189
That's crazy.
190
I know.
191
So did you say anything to her?
192
No. How can you even ask me that?
193
I would never get involved in your relationship.
194
Alright.
195
Sorry.
196
You know, maybe she does have a point though.
197
Huh?
198
Maybe she sees something that you don't.
199
I mean, what we had was pretty special.
200
Jen, please!
201
Don't you get it?
202
Clarice ghosting you is a sign that you shouldn't be with someone else.
203
I mean, you don't deserve to be with someone who treats you that way.
204
I would never do that to you.
205
Jen, it's not...
206
It's okay.
207
I'm here.
208
Hey, why don't you sit down and I'll make you your favorite tea?
209
Chamomile to honeys?
210
You still know?
211
Of course I know.
212
I know everything about you.
213
Okay.
214
Thanks.
215
Here you go.
216
Two scoops of honey and I made sure it wasn't too hot.
217
Thank you.
218
This is amazing.
219
No one makes tea like you.
220
Hey.
221
Sorry for coming here and accusing you.
222
Hey, I really appreciate you being here for me.
223
I'll always be here for you.
224
It just, it really hurts me to see you hurt.
225
But hey, I know it'll cheer you up.
226
What if I make your favorite cookies?
227
Oatmeal raisin, and I'll take them out early so they're soft and gooey.
228
Alright, uh...
229
You know I can't say no to cookies.
230
Here, why don't you make yourself comfy?
231
And pick a movie on my laptop for us to watch.
232
Okay.
233
What's the password?
234
Umm...hmm...
235
I love Michael no spaces?
236
What?
237
It's true!
238
And it's not like I'm just gonna forget about you like Clarice did.
239
What the heck is this?
240
Have you been stalking my girlfriend?
241
No, I can explain.
242
Are you serious?
243
See?
244
This is exactly why we broke up.
245
You're always just so jealous, controlling, obsessive.
246
This is too much.
247
No, stop.
248
Just hear me out.
249
No, no, no. No, Jen, this is actually nuts.
250
This is nuts, Jen.
251
No, no, don't say that.
252
I love you, and I know you love me.
253
Why else would I be willing to do all of this for you?
254
I care about you.
255
I'm leaving.
256
I'm leaving This is obviously a huge mistake coming here.
257
I can't live without you.
258
I'm leaving.
259
Just sit down.
260
No, I'm I said sit down!
261
What the heck are you doing?
262
Just stop talking.
263
Stop talking.
264
Okay, here's what's gonna happen I'm gonna make you the cookies and you're gonna eat them.
265
I love you.
266
You're gonna love me You have to love me.
267
Jennifer, you...
268
You can't force someone to love you.
269
Yes, I can.
270
Because I'm the one with the weapon to...
271
Ah!
272
Home.
273

274
You...
275
Are you okay?
276
You saved me.
277
Wait, what are you doing here?
278
It's a long story.
279
Let's go.
280
The police are coming.
281
I still can't believe you did all that.
282
Like, who are you?
283
It's not like I was actually going to hurt her.
284
I just wanted her out of the picture.
285
Plus, I'm totally over Michael now.
286
I swear.
287
I swear.
288
Jennifer.
289
Him.
290
His name is Steve Aker.
291
No middle name, single, two children, both boys, three and seven.
292
Before he was a prison guard, he was a lifeguard.
293
And he had a 3.6 GPA and height.
294
Let's go.
295
Unbelievable.
296
It is unbelievable.
297
Thank you.
Why practice speaking with this video?
This video illustrates an engaging and realistic conversation where English is used in a social and somewhat dramatic context. By practicing speaking with this content, learners can improve their english speaking practice through real-life dialogues. The interactions among the characters showcase everyday phrases and expressions that can be useful in similar situations.
Furthermore, practicing with this video updates learners on contemporary slang and informal speech patterns that are often used in casual encounters. The context of encountering an ex-partner at the gym adds layers of emotion and relatable scenarios, making it a great material for shadow speech exercises. Engaging with this content not only enhances speaking ability but also boosts comprehension of emotional cues in conversation.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
The dialogue offers several key grammatical structures and expressions that are frequently used in conversational English. Here are three noteworthy examples:
- Present Perfect Tense: "It’s been a while." This phrase indicates that a certain amount of time has passed since the last meeting, which is common when discussing past events.
- Direct Address: The use of names in conversation—e.g., "Oh, my God, Michael, hey!"—confirms the relationship dynamics and gives a more personal touch to the exchange.
- Conditional Statements: “If you’re not- Hey, you!” This demonstrates the use of conversational starters to express conditions or assumptions, which are frequently encountered in casual discussions.
Incorporating these structures into your IELTS speaking practice sessions can effectively enhance your fluency and spontaneity in speaking.
Common Pronunciation Traps
As you practice the dialogue, be mindful of certain pronunciation traps that may arise:
- Contractions: Phrases like “you’re” and “it’s” can be tricky. Ensure you pronounce them clearly to maintain the flow of conversation.
- Reduced Forms: Words such as “gonna” and “wanna” are commonly used in fast speech. Getting comfortable with these forms can help you sound more natural.
- Emphasis on Intonation: Notice how the speakers change their tone when expressing excitement or irritation. Practicing these emotional inflections can add depth to your shadowspeak.
By focusing on these aspects, learners can significantly improve their pronunciation skills, making their practice sessions more effective.
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
