Okay, I see you got the ice.

Yeah, I know.

You know what this is?

Nah, man, what's that?

That's a jewelry tester.

He's about that life.

Who's a fraud?

Oh.

No, come on, Brandon.

Why would you do that?

It's fake.

Yeah, it's fake.

I'm sorry, I didn't know.

I've stopped talking about it for some years.

Okay, your secret's safe with me.

You sure?

Yeah.

Now, uh, I decided to victim.

So you wanna hit the arcade tonight?

Can't.

Pran's out of town, so gotta be home by 6.

Yeah, I'll just come to your place then.

You know what your mom always says.

Mi casa su casa.

Just talk to her.

No. That'd be weird.

Can't be more weird than you staring her down like a creep, bro.

Yo, Theo!

Let me touch your chain.

I wanna see if it's real.

It's real, but...

Alright.

Okay, straight eyes.

What about you?

What's your name?

Uh, Eric.

My name's Eric.

You got a chain?

I want to test it.

No, sorry.

I left it at home today.

Okay.

There's Alicia.

Let's go talk to her.

Yo, Alicia!

Why'd you lie about not having a chain?

Well, you know it's fake.

I can't let Brandon Mitchell know that.

I don't think I'm a joke.

Who cares what he thinks?

Not anybody else for that matter.

Just be you.

Yeah, you're rich.

You don't get it.

But it's fine.

Just head out before he comes back.

All right, man.

Dude, I can't believe your dad bought you a Porsche.

Yeah, it's nice.

Just trying to be low-key about it.

Low-key?

Did you hit your head or something?

If I had a car like this, the whole world would know.

I'm getting tired of this old rust bucket, man.

Ouch.

Ah, man, I forgot my math book.

All right, I'll be right back.

Hi, you're Eric, right?

Is this your car?

Uh, it's actually my...

It's really nice.

I didn't know you had that kind of money.

I know Porsches are typically really expensive.

Oh, so, is it your car?

Uh...

Yeah, it is.

I-I just picked her up last week.

My parents are really rich.

They, uh, they have businesses all over the world.

Um, they're actually in London right now, closing a deal.

Wow.

That must be nice.

You probably have a house in the hills and everything.

Mm-hmm.

Something like that.

Speaking of the hills, did Brandon invite you to the party tonight?

Uh, yes.

But I don't know if I'm gonna go.

I just-I have a busy schedule, so...

Yo, Alicia.

Hey, you.

Hi.

So you're my text?

Oh, I didn't even realize you texted.

Um, we were talking to Eric about his new car.

This is your man?

Yeah, I just picked her up last week.

Dang, dope, man.

Where'd you get it?

100

The Porsche, do you, Alicia?

101

Yeah, I know that. Which one?

102

Not a Pasadena.

103

Yeah, that one.

104

Uh, Pasadena Porsche.

105

It's cool, man.

106

My dad might have sold it to you.

107

He works there.

108

Really?

109

So, um, nine o'clock for the party?

110

Oh, listen, that's actually what I texted you about, um, we can have the party at my place.

111

My parents are going to be home.

112

Seriously?

113

Now what are we going to do?

114

Does no one have a house we can have it at?

115

Nope.

116

Well, Eric has a house in the hills.

117

I do?

118

Oh, yeah.

119

Yeah, I do.

120

Oh, dope.

121

So we can just have the party at your house.

122

Uh, I don't think so.

123

My parents are really strict.

124

Aren't they in London though?

125

They won't know.

126

Oh, come on, Eric.

127

Please.

128

Please, please.

129

Come on, Eric.

130

Uh...

131

Yeah.

132

Yeah.

133

Um, you guys think 10 o'clock, my place?

134

Alright, you bet.

135

See the details in the group chat?

136

See you later, man.

137

Please, give me some fans.

138

Thanks for hosting the party tonight.

139

Yeah, of course.

140

I'll get your number for the address.

141

Oh.

142

Sadie, we missed the bus again.

143

Are you serious?

144

Now we're gonna have to walk home.

145

It's gonna take forever.

146

Unless.. you can give us a ride home?

147

Yeah, sure.

148

Seriously?

149

You would do that?

150

Of course, yeah.

151

I just have to wait for my friend Theo to come back.

152

You're a lifesaver.

153

Thanks so much, Eric.

154

Yeah, hop in.

155

Yeah.

156

Hop in.

157

Yo, Eric, what is Alicia and Sadie doing in my...

158

Oh, shh, shh.

159

Look, they needed a ride, so I offered.

160

Okay, so if you offered, then why are they in my car?

161

Quiet down, dude.

162

Alicia Baker is in the back of your Porsche.

163

Alicia Baker, do you know how big a deal that is?

164

That is a huge deal.

165

I don't care if it was Miley Cyrus in here, man.

166

Okay, maybe, Molly, but no one else, all right, man?

167

Can you just ride shotgun, let me drive?

168

I'll explain everything later.

169

I promise.

170

Fine.

171

Then I'd crash my car, man.

172

Probably won't.

173

Hate to break it to you, man, but Eric's definitely trying to steal your girl.

174

I'm not worried about that loser.

175

No, but there's definitely something going on with him.

176

I'm gonna figure out what it is.

177

All right.

178

Thanks for giving us a ride, Eric.

179

No problem.

180

Did not know you lived here.

181

Yeah, we just moved in about a week ago.

182

I'm sure you have a much nicer house.

183

No, this is fine.

184

No judgment here.

185

Thanks.

186

So we'll see you at your place later tonight?

187

Yeah.

188

Awesome.

189

Wait, unless you guys want to come to dinner with us beforehand.

190

Yeah, we're going to Darla's diner before the party.

191

You guys should come.

192

Yeah, we'd love to.

193

Awesome.

194

Meet us at 7.

195

Perfect.

196

See you then.

197

Go!

198

Bye.

199

Bye.

200

You got about 30 seconds to tell me what's going on.

201

It's a funny story actually. So...

202

It's not that funny.

203

So, I might have told them, more alluded to the fact that the Porsche was in fact mine.

204

Mine.

205

What?

206

You did what?

207

Are you crazy?

208

I was just trying to show off for Alicia and Brandon, okay?

209

I...

210

I...

211

Dude, I didn't mean anything by it.

212

Eric, I keep trying to tell you.

213

You shouldn't be trying to impress Alicia, Brandon, or any of those people.

214

I just keep telling you, just do you, just focus on you, just be...

215

What are you doing?

216

My mom just came out.

217

She cannot know that I'm here, and...

218

I don't want the girls to know that I live here either.

219

How are you gonna avoid your mom when you're throwing a party here tonight?

220

And have you ever thought about considering, like, Like, how are you gonna fit more than five people in your place? About that. So...

221

We can talk about it later.

222

Later?

223

Yeah.

224

Is that important?

225

It's.. there's no big deal. Where are they? Who?

226

Oh, Brandon and Asher.

227

They should be here any minute, but they are always late.

228

Mm, there they are.

229

Hey.

230

Hi.

231

Hi.

232

I didn't know any else was coming.

233

Yeah.

234

Well, it's the least we could do after Eric gave us a ride home

235

and is letting us use this place for a party.

236

Anyway, I will get a table.

237

How many people want to...

238

Actually, this place is kind of cheap.

239

Let's go somewhere nicer.

240

Giovanni's?

241

But Giovanni's is so expensive.

242

Come on.

243

More up to Eric's standards.

244

Oh, no. Darla's is great.

245

Plus, I eat Giovanni's all the time.

246

It's perfect.

247

It's your favorite place.

248

Hey, what are you doing?

249

We can't afford that place.

250

I know we can't afford it, but I want to see if you can.

251

So, what's the...

252

Yo, Alicia!

253

Oh!

254

Okay.

255

Let's...

256

Just begin.

257

It's okay.

258

That was good.

259

Just gonna leave this here, guys, whenever you're ready.

260

Thank you, Alex.

261

It's good to.. good to see you again.

262

Guys, the bill is $1,000.

263

That means like $200 per person.

264

Yeah, I don't have that kind of money.

265

Same.

266

I don't know what we're gonna do.

267

It's fine.

268

I got it.

269

Thanks.

270

Shoot, I left my debit card at home.

271

I'm sorry, guys.

272

Eric, you got this, right?

273

Right?

274

The whole thing?

275

Yeah.

276

Come on, man.

277

You drive a Porsche.

278

You're here all the time.

279

You got this.

280

I'll pay you back.

281

I promise.

282

Sure.

283

Eric's got it.

284

Thanks, man.

285

Thank you.

286

Sir, the, uh, card showing declined?

287

Really?

288

Uh, you think you could try it again?

289

Just to...

290

You know what, it could be the portable reader.

291

They do mess up here and there, so...

292

I'll try it on the register for you.

293

Okay, cool.

294

I'll come with you.

295

Theo, you think you could come with us just to be safe?

296

Sure.

297

Look, I already know what you're about to ask.

298

The answer is no. Please just put it on your credit card.

299

Brandon said he'd pay you back.

300

It's not that big a deal.

301

Mm-mm.

302

Mm-mm.

303

Don't make me look bad in front of Alicia.

304

Okay?

305

I finally have a shot with her.

306

This is getting ridiculous.

307

After this, I'm done.

308

Done.

309

I'll make it up to you.

310

I swear.

311

You know, that's probably a lie, since that's all you do now.

312

Thank you.

313

All right.

314

We got a winner.

315

Yes, sir.

316

I was too full.

317

Thanks for dinner.

318

Yeah.

319

So, 10 p.m in your place?

320

Yep.

321

Just give me some time to get the house together.

322

I bet.

323

Your address is 3131 Deronda Drive?

324

Yep.

325

That's the.. that's the one.

326

Okay.

327

We'll see you then.

328

Bye.

329

Eric.

330

Why does Brandon have my address?

331

Okay, I can explain.

332

They think it's your house, don't they?

333

I can't believe you!

334

Look, I know you're upset, and you have every right to be.

335

But you don't know what it's like.

336

I don't know what it's like.

337

Yeah, I don't know what it's like to be a pathological liar!

338

You don't know what it's like to be me. To have no money.

339

to drive a beat-up car that barely even runs, to live in a crappy old apartment.

340

I just wanted to be the cool kid for once.

341

Man, I'm sorry.

342

I should have never said yes to them in the first place.

343

I just got so caught up in everything.

344

Look, man, being cool isn't about what you have.

345

It's about what's in here, who you are on the inside.

346

It's all that matters.

347

It's pretty easy to say when your family has money.

348

But it's fine.

349

I'm gonna let them know that the party's off.

350

Alicia will probably never talk to me again, but...

351

Oh, well.

352

Look, everybody's gotta be out by 2 a.m.

353

You hear me?

354

My parents will be back at 8 a.m tomorrow morning.

355

You're serious?

356

Yeah, man.

357

Okay.

358

Yeah.

359

And I will have your place pick and span before your parents get back.

360

You better.

361

Thank you.

362

I am indebted to you for life.

363

Yeah, and the afterlife.

364

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

365

What are you doing?

366

I want people to believe I live here.

367

They can't come in and see all your family photos.

368

And have you thought about what would happen if people did find out?

369

They won't find out.

370

As long as you help me hide everything.

371

All right.

372

Got this one.

373

Can't believe I let you talk me into this.

374

Bro, it's over for you.

375

You've lost Alicia.

376

Do you think it's time for you to move on now?

377

Look, man, it might be over, but not for me.

378

Come on.

379

This house is so big.

380

It's so nice.

381

Yeah, thanks.

382

It's big.

383

It's nice, but I try to stay humble about it.

384

I like that.

385

Yo, this house is fire.

386

It's huge.

387

We actually got lost.

388

We did.

389

But we found something interesting.

390

Booyah!

391

Now, if this is your house, why do you have pictures of Theo's family?

392

I was helping Theo with a family project earlier.

393

Earlier right Theo?

394

Oh project right yeah family project.

395

Oh, that's cool.

396

It's cool So you got your chain on Let's test it.

397

I Yeah, sure we can do it later.

398

I was actually about the show everyone.

399

Oh no, so cool man.

400

Take a second No, no the thing about the chain is is that it's fake That's that's really weird.

401

I didn't think my aunt was the type person to give me a fake chain But it's no biggie.

402

I'll just wear one of my other ones next time.

403

It's cool, man.

404

You got played.

405

Yeah, or maybe You try to play us.

406

I told you I didn't know it's fake.

407

I can afford a Porsche.

408

Why would I get a fake channel?

409

Just leave him alone Brandon.

410

About your Porsche.

411

You said you got it from Pasadena, right?

412

Yeah So it's funny because we went and saw my dad at work and he told us

413

Every single person that buys a car There's a picture on the wall.

414

So we looked, and we didn't see your face.

415

You know who we did see?

416

Theo.

417

Yeah, Theo's there.

418

Theo was there, he was helping me with the paperwork.

419

Stop.

420

You're a fraud.

421

That car's not yours, this house ain't yours.

422

Guys, I can explain everything.

423

Okay?

424

Theo, job!

425

Mom?

426

Dad, what are you doing here?

427

You weren't posting me back till tomorrow morning.

428

Why are all these people in our house?

429

Hey look, let me explain.

430

Oh my gosh.

431

Brandon's telling the truth.

432

I can't believe you lied, Eric.

433

Yeah, how could you pretend that you lived here?

434

What a loser.

435

This part is whack.

436

Let's get out of here.

437

Anyway, I'll see you later.

438

Okay.

439

I'll take care.

440

You okay?

441

Look, I don't understand why you lied.

442

So people would like me?

443

Eric, you don't need a nice house.

444

Or a nice car or a chain for people to like you.

445

Come on, Alicia.

446

You know you wouldn't have given me a second look if I told you that Porsche wasn't my favorite.

447

That's not true.

448

I live in an old apartment building.

449

Who am I to judge?

450

If I'm being completely honest...

451

We live in the same building.

452

If we pulled up three seconds later, then my mom would have seen us pulling up from the Porsche and dragged me out by my ear.

453

Okay, he's got jokes.

454

See?

455

I knew why I liked you.

456

You liked me?

457

I guess you don't anymore, though.

458

Not after this.

459

Not after this.

460

Well, I won't make my final decision until I've met the real Eric.

461

This Eric.

462

It's not the things that you have that impress me.

463

It's who you are.

464

And maybe I can get to know that guy sometime over dinner.

465

Yeah.

466

I'd love that.

467

But anywhere but Giovanni's, I...

468

It's gonna take me forever to pay Theo back for that.

469

We can go to Darla's.

470

It's a lot better food too.

471

True.

472

And Brandon's not there.

473

Oh, thank God.

474

You know, you really had us all fooled there, Eric.

475

I cannot believe you are Alicia's neighbor.

476

Right?

477

Can we just not talk about that, please?

478

It's all someone has been talking about all day.

479

Sorry.

480

Yo, Alicia.

481

You really here with him?

482

After everything he did, he's fake.

483

He has no money.

484

So, I'd rather be here with him than someone that's a bully.

485

What are you laughing at?

486

Walking around with a fake chain?

487

You said you wasn't gonna say anything.

488

Let me see this, man.

489

What are you doing?

490

Get that off.

491

Wow.

492

This entire time you've been making fun of people from wearing fake jewelry, meanwhile you're rocking a fake chain?

493

Why would you do that?

494

You know, and since we're on the topic of being fake, guys, his dad's not even top salesman.

495

He's the janitor.

496

Don't believe it, that's Kat.

497

You're Asher.

498

Yikes.

499

That was a plot twist.

500

Yeah.

501

Oh, God.

502

If he would just be himself, people would like him so much better.

503

Wow, that's really interesting.

504

You should probably start a podcast just off that topic.

505

I learned my lesson.

506

Okay?

507

Hey, guys.

508

Hi, what can I get for you?

509

I'm gonna keep it real.

510

What's the cheapest thing you have on the menu?

511

Price.

512

Are you trying to frame me?

513

What?

514

This note was left in my office.

515

I'm gonna need to check your- No, you can't do that!

516

What's you got there?

517

Madison's journal or a diary or something?

518

I can give it to her.

519

All I know is that someone ruined my relationship.

520

Shelby's boyfriend tried to flirt with Madison?

521

I should have told you sooner.

522

My best friend?

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
