1
I'm sorry, you say the bets to me?
2
Harvey, when are you gonna leave Pierce work for a man?
3
I'll leave Jessica any time you want.
4
You just have to formally ask.
5
And then after that, why don't you formally ask Santa Claus to bring you a pony, because I'm not leaving Jessica.
6
I check.
7
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm terribly sorry, but we have a problem.
8
What problem?
9
We came down here because you led us to believe that your client was ready to accept our settlement agreement.
10
And I thought he would.
11
Look, I took him the offer.
12
I presented it to him and recommended that he take it.
13
In fact, I urged him to take it.
14
You know what he told me to do?
15
He told me to tell you to shove it up your ass.
16
Wait a minute.
17
I thought you didn't get emotionally attached to the client.
18
I'm emotionally attached to me.
19
Look, I made a bet that this company would grow and my billables would grow with it.
20
We're holding a pair of aces, and this asshole's trying to fold.
21
So, what are you gonna do?
22
I'm not gonna do anything.
23
You're gonna go through those bylaws, and you're gonna find me a way to get rid of Robert Stensley.
24
No, no, no, no. I have to go see my grandmother.
25
Uh-uh.
26
Is she dying?
27
No. Cancel on.
28
Do you remember that whole getting a thing I was talking to you about?
29
I can't even gloat.
30
Gloating's fine.
31
You just have to not suck at it.
32
Okay.
33
Thank you. So much.
34
It hurt.
35
He's not dying.
36
He lost his job.
37
He has to look for another one.
38
Which if he hadn't chosen to fight for his company in the first place would have happened anyway.
39
Now show me that you get it, go back through those bylaws again and see if you missed anything.
40
Okay?
41
I don't have to look through them to figure it out because I just did.
42
But what took you so long?
43
Are you trying to look like me?
44
I'm so sorry.
45
Yeah?
46
Never answer your phone in front of a client.
47
But it's you.
48
Just because I don't have a fancy degree doesn't mean you get to come into my house and order me around.
49
And you go whine to Morello and I'll knock you on your ass at the bush you are.
50
Well, Sam, I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I've been working for your boss, Dean Morello, for a very long time, and, um, let me tell you something.
51
You try to stonewall me, you'll be out on the street in less than a week.
52
As for the other stuff, do I think that I'm smarter than you?
53
You're damn right I do.
54
But if you think that means that I can't kick your ass up and down this floor, take a swing and see what happens.
55
I didn't think so.
56
I didn't think so. That was amazing.
57
He was like he was Mr. T and you were Rocky.
58
But like not Rocky at the beginning when he's all scared of Mr. T, but at the end, he's all like, give it your best shot, you know?
59
Adrian!
60
Yes!
61
That's funny, but you might want to wipe that grin off your face.
62
What?
63
Why?
64
Because without those trades, we don't have shit, and your little girlfriend's gonna rot in jail.
65
By the way, you gotta work on your Stallone.
66
You need a lower register.
67
Ooh.
68
That was an incredible Stallone.
69
I've been doing that since I was a kid.
70
You can't touch it.
71
Ooh.
72
No, I swallowed it.
73
There's food in your mouth.
74
That's disgusting.
75
You have the trades?
76
Ta-da.
77
Good.
78
Hey, when can we...
79
I'm not just a lawyer to Jerome, okay?
80
I'm more like Robert Duvall in The Godfather.
81
His consigliere.
82
Okay.
83
What?
84
Uh, nothing.
85
Just...
86
If you're his Robert Duvall, you're coming to me, so...
87
Technically, I'm your Robert Duvall.
88
You're my Fredo.
89
I win, I get Mike.
90
You can't bet me like I'm chattel, Lewis.
91
Not like he's gonna win.
92
One month.
93
Ten days.
94
Harvey.
95
Two weeks.
96
Nine days.
97
Harvey!
98
Alright, you know what?
99
Fine.
100
Ten days.
101
And in return?
102
Well, that's tough, because anything you have, I wouldn't want.
103
Well, uh, you're gonna bet me for nothing?
104
One thing, if you get into trouble, don't play the case.
105
Play the man.
106
What are you talking about?
107
Good lawyers worry about facts.
108
Great lawyers worry about their opponents.
109
Kyle is cocky and devious.
110
Figure out a way to use that against him.
111
Hey, anything else?
112
Kick his ass.
113
They killed Jill, and they are out there laughing their asses up.
114
Now get off!
115
What?
116
Come here, get off of here!
117
We tried?
118
Let's go!
119
You said you'll get me out!
120
Let's go!
121
You said you'll get me out!
122
What just happened?
123
I just bought us 48 hours.
124
Uh, hey, Donna, can you show me how to fill out a subpoena?
125
Absolutely.
126
And after that, do you want me to show you how to wipe your ass?
127
It's funny, because you should already know how to do both those things.
128
Ah, yeah, that's hilarious.
129
What's that?
130
That's my suit guy.
131
Go in, tell him I sent you, and spend some money.
132
What does it matter how much money I spent on suit?
133
These people respond to how we're dressed, so like it or not, this is what you have to do.
134
It's weird.
135
You giving me advice?
136
Sounds like you actually care about me.
137
I don't.
138
You're a reflection of me, and I absolutely care about me.
139
So get your skinny tie out of my face and get to work.
140
Lewis, I apologize.
141
I was out of line.
142
Now, if you'll just let me text your pretend wife that I just made senior partner, I...
143
What?
144
Too far?
145
Come on, she doesn't even exist.
146
How is that nice?
147
It's not mean.
148
Lewis, come on.
149
Lewis, just messing around with you.
150
You're fired.
151
What?
152
Effective immediately.
153
You're gonna fire me?
154
Because of this?
155
I hope you're happy.
156
Because without me, this hedge fund's nothing.
157
I'll be happy when the Department of Justice puts your ass in handcuffs.
158
Enjoy your freedom, Bert, because they're coming for you.
159
And since you're a bigger trophy than Gabrielle Stone, you're gonna get a whole lot more than 11 months.
160
Before I make a move, I need to know everything about how this guy operates.
161
Right, for his Wikipedia page.
162
You think the Mavericks didn't watch game film on LeBron before they played the Heat?
163
You're Harvey Specter.
164
You don't need to watch game film.
165
Do you know who's watched more game film than anybody?
166
No. Who?
167
Michael Jordan.
168
How do you know that?
169
You don't believe me?
170
Let's call him.
171
You have Michael Jordan's phone number?
172
Yep.
173
If I hit this button right here, I call Michael Jordan?
174
That's kind of how a phone works.
175
Speed dial 23.
176
I'm doing it.
177
Go for it.
178
I'm gonna ask him about baseball.
179
Do not ask him about baseball.
180
Wrong number.
181
You're kidding me.
182
Oh my God.
183
Who are you?
184
Just saying I don't love what you guys play at.
185
Espionage happens all the time, which is why I know you'll do anything to protect your secrets.
186
Well, actually, Joe Spina of 2561 Clover Lane, Astoria, Queens, I think we all would.
187
Like those tax returns you filed jointly in the last six years while no longer living with your wife.
188
You know, the IRS can destroy you for that.
189
You think you're the first person to try to extort me, Joe?
190
Because that's the level I play at.
191
Now, you're a security guard, likes to take risks.
192
I like that.
193
Here's what we're going to do.
194
This here is a generous donation to Joey Jr.'s Little League team.
195
Now, if it gets to them, it gets to them.
196
If it doesn't, it doesn't.
197
The next time we talk, it's going to be me who wants a favor.
198
The first thing your friends upstairs are going to ask you for is a big, fat retainer.
199
And when you tell them that Harvey Specter is the one who's suing you, you're going to watch the color drain Now, what would you like to do?
200
So you're gonna purge yourself just to win this case?
201
No, I'm not gonna purge myself.
202
Even if I were, it wouldn't be just to win this case.
203
It'd be to get your ass thrown in jail.
204
See, you have power of attorney, and you're gonna accept this settlement.
205
Two million dollars a plaintiff.
206
You're gonna take it.
207
And you and that shit-eating grin are gonna fly back to Boston and never come back to my tally camp.
208
Unfortunately, I don't have access to his DNA.
209
So you're finally gonna go after him and Matt Bailey?
210
I'm not a prosecutor anymore.
211
And what the hell are you here for?
212
I want you to let me represent you.
213
Think I'm gonna trust you after what you did to me?
214
I don't see anyone else lining up to get your ass out of here.
215
No. You don't get to tell me it's one way in court and another out here.
216
You can't prove it.
217
You don't know anything.
218
Well, you broke the law.
219
Tell yourself whatever you want.
220
I'll tell myself I got an innocent man out and I put two guilty ones in.
221
Then I'll close my eyes and I'll sleep like a baby.
222
Now, ask yourself something.
223
Are you gonna let Jessica Pearson play the big game for you?
224
What's so funny?
225
I'm just thinking about how I'm gonna enjoy kicking your ass.
226
I'll see you in court.
227
No, I don't.
228
No, I don't.
229
We were here this time.
230
We won't be here next time.
231
Next time?
232
What would've happened if you would've killed me this time?
233
Well, you'd be dead, and we'd have caught the guy and used him to put Jason away for murder.
234
Shit, we should've done that, don't we?
235
Harvey, behave.
236
Her Majesty's here to see you.
237
I heard that.
238
You were meant to.
239
Gentlemen.
240
Your Highness.
241
Okay, you know what?
242
That's exactly why I'm here.
243
To be mocked?
244
No, to set clear ground rules to keep the negotiation above board.
245
Absolutely.
246
No kicking, no biting, and no rabbit punches.
247
And now you're mocking the ground rules.
248
No, I'm just mocking you.
249
Done.
250
We're gonna need to streamline this.
251
Give each guy a hard time.
252
Before you send them back, give me a wink if they say something clever.
253
Cool?
254
Okay.
255
What are you looking for?
256
Another me.
257
Got it.
258
Arrogant, self-absorbed, blowhard.
259
Thinks he's the smartest one in the room.
260
That's why I love you.
261
You get me.
262
You better make sure Miss Stone signs this, otherwise we don't have a deal.
263
How long have we known each other?
264
Since you were in the DA's office.
265
Then you know we'll have a deal.
266
Talk to you.
267
Thank you.

Video consigliato

Per chi è questo video?

Questo video è perfetto per gli apprendisti di inglese a livello intermedio o avanzato che vogliono migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluidità nella conversazione. Ideale per chi cerca esempi di shadowspeak (pratica di imitazione) con un tono assertivo e professionale, tipico del linguaggio statunitense informale ma autoritario. I dialoghi sono ricchi di espressioni colloquiali, quindi utile anche per chi vuole capire il linguaggio "reale" al di là dei libri di testo.

Parole e modi di dire da rubare

  • "Shove it up your ass": Espressione informale e forte per dire "toglielo dal mio sight" o "non mi interessa". Usata per mostrare frustrazione.
  • "Hold a pair of aces": Fare riferimento a una posizione forte o vantaggiosa (come nelle carte). In contesto: "Avevamo tutte le probabilità a nostro favore".
  • "Gloat": Esultare apertamente per un successo. Esempio: "Non posso nemmeno esultare per la vittoria".
  • "Knock you on your ass": Metáfora per "farti cadere a terra" o "umiliarti". Usata per minacciare in modo informale.

Come correggere la pronuncia: focus sullo speaker

Harvey Specter parla con un tono basso, veloce e con poca pausa: perfetto per esercitarsi nel shadow speak. Per imitarlo bene:
- Riduci le pause: I dialoghi sono intensi, quindi le frasi si susseguono senza interruzioni. Prova a ripetere le sue righe immediatamente dopo di lui, mantenendo il ritmo.
- Enfatizza le consonanti finali: Parole come "ass" o "bush" hanno una "s" forte, tipica dell' inglese americano. Non le elidi!
- Usa l'intonazione decrescente: Le sue frasi finiscono spesso con un tono più basso, a indicare sicurezza. Evita l'intonazione alta, tipica delle domande, a meno che non sia richiesta.
Questo esercizio non solo migliora la pronuncia, ma anche la pratica di conversazione in inglese nel contesto professionale e assertivo.

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.
