Pratica di Shadowing: Harvey Specter Dropping Facts For 15 Minutes Straight | Suits - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

What happened with the witness?

Nothing.

Nothing happened.

I couldn't fix it. So you're gonna quit?

It's either that or have Lewis Lit fire me.

What are you talking about?

My first day, Lewis fired Gary Lipsky for screwing up a case.

He said if I did the same thing,

I'd be gone just as fast.

Will you go back to the witness's house and get her to testify again?

I tried.

There's no way.

There's always a way.

Then why don't you go and convince her?

Because you screwed it up.

Oh, and you don't give a damn about the client.

Right.

It's not my job.

Does your job include giving a damn about me

because the least you could do is offer to stand up to Lewis for me?

Stand up for you?

I put my ass on the line for you.

But it turns out you may have had the balls to get this job,

but you don't have the courage to stick it out when it gets tough.

That's not true.

Isn't it?

You've had one foot out the door since you got here.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about that briefcase being locked in your desk.

Yeah, I saw it, and I know what it is.

It's your backup plan in case this doesn't work out.

You can make some quick cash and go right back to the life you told me you didn't want to lead.

So if you want to quit, go ahead.

But this isn't because of Lewis,

and it isn't because of me.

It's because you're afraid you might have to admit that you're not as smart as you think you are.

Harvey.

We talked about this, right?

Barging into my office?

I'm not leaving till you hear me out.

You want to bet?

You owe it to me.

Oh, I owe it to you?

Yeah.

Look, this is not my fault, all right?

It's not my fault, all right?

Lewis made me do it.

Lewis did, right.

He put a gun to your head and made you smoke pot.

Yeah, he did.

He pulled out the drug test,

which I failed, by the way,

and then he told me that if I didn't smoke pot to help him land this new client,

that he'd fire me.

It's not so different than asking someone out for drinks, is it?

You and I had a deal.

I'm sorry.

And if next time Lewis asks you to do something that I told you not to do, what then?

I told you that I did not have a choice.

Oh, because he had a gun to your head.

Yes.

And what are your choices if someone puts a gun to your head?

What are you talking about?

You do what they say or they shoot you.

Wrong.

You take the gun, or you pull out a bigger one,

or you call their bluff,

or you do any one of 146 other things.

If you can't think for yourself,

maybe you aren't cut out for this.

I can and I am.

Look, I did what I had to do.

I made the best out of a bad situation,

which is what I am good at,

which is what you hired me to do in the first place.

Yeah, I hired you and I expect your loyalty.

So if Lewis asks you to do something like that,

you come to me first.

Oh, right.

Like when I came to you and you told me that I couldn't sit at the adult table.

Right, I remember that.

Or when you told me to go file the patent by myself.

Like that?

Excuse me?

You know what?

Maybe it's time you show me some loyalty.

Do you know how long it was before I got to sit at the adult table?

It was when I brought in my first client,

which I don't recall you having done.

And when you screwed up that patent and Wyatt went H shit on me,

I didn't put that on you.

I took it on myself because that's my job.

And it's your job to do what I say when I say it.

So if you're talking about loyalty,

you better goddamn burn it.

Excuse me, Mr. Spector.

I was wondering if you might need a hand sometime with one of your matters.

Anyone.

Well, Alan?

100

It's Aaron.

101

I think that says it all, don't you?

102

What are you doing?

103

I'm looking for a restaurant.

104

Where did you go for your rookie dinner?

105

I came into the league a sophomore.

106

You better not be prioritizing that of McKernan Motors.

107

I still need something to stall Stensland.

108

It's right here.

109

What are you so irritated about?

110

I spent a day with a top headhunter I know who couldn't produce one legitimate CEO candidate by Thursday.

111

What about that Dominic Barone guy who runs production?

112

He said he was responsible for the engines and clearly cares about the workers.

113

Oh, he's not the guy.

114

Uh, you're scared you can't convince him because he hates you.

115

I get it.

116

Nice try.

117

You know you can't host your dinner there if that's a Wattell-Lifton-Kline restaurant.

118

Okay, fine.

119

What about this place?

120

Yeah, that'd be great if it was 2004.

121

Oh, God.

122

Does any of this matter?

123

God.

124

See that guy over there by the fax?

125

Take a good look.

126

He's never gonna make partner.

127

Okay, let me guess.

128

Because he threw a lousy rookie dinner.

129

No, because he doesn't get it.

130

Get what?

131

He doesn't get that doing good work isn't the whole job.

132

Part of getting it is that things like the dinner actually matter,

133

even when you don't think they do.

134

Look, you were giving me shit this morning because I come and go when I want to.

135

You know why I can do that?

136

Because when I got here, I dominated.

137

They thought I worked 100 hours a day.

138

Now, no matter what time I get in,

139

nobody questions my ability to get the job done.

140

Get it through your head.

141

First impressions last.

142

You start behind the eight ball,

143

you'll never get in front.

144

Need anything?

145

Otherwise, I'm gonna head out.

146

Celebratory drinks with the associates?

147

Yep.

148

And what exactly are you celebrating?

149

You know what?

150

You can save the disappointment, Harvey.

151

I know what I did. Do you?

152

Because what I saw is that you backed off because you were worried about hurting your girlfriend's feelings.

153

It was a fake trial.

154

All right?

155

I weighed the pros and the cons,

156

I weighed the pros and the cons,

157

and I decided it wasn't worth hurting someone for the result.

158

The result is you just told every partner in this firm,

159

including myself, that you have a weak stomach.

160

You don't have what it takes.

161

You know, you keep telling me that I have to decide what kind of lawyer I want to be.

162

And if I were smart,

163

I'd probably be just like you,

164

because everybody knows you're the best.

165

But I'm also trying to decide what kind of person I want to be.

166

Sometimes I like my kind of person a lot more than yours.

167

You want to know what kind of person I am?

168

Tough, but fair.

169

I call it like I see it.

170

And what I see is a kid who asks for an opportunity still hasn't decided if he wants it or not.

171

Whatever you're doing, stop.

172

You're going to want to see this.

173

Paula O'Neil, the former Drabak employee that Stan mentioned,

174

she filed a wrongful termination suit that mysteriously went away.

175

Really?

176

Let me see that.

177

Come with me.

178

Wait, you think something funny is going on?

179

You know what, here's what I think is going on.

180

You're sympathizing with Stan because you think he's you.

181

That doesn't mean that you need to learn something from what just happened,

182

not the least of which is how anyone,

183

no matter how valuable, can be let go.

184

I can chalk up what happened with Stan to youthful exuberance, but Jessica can't.

185

So if you want to work here,

186

you better go home now,

187

because if she sees, you know,

188

this habit of you empathizing with every client,

189

it's not getting you anywhere.

190

You want to work in this firm?

191

You need to deal in fear facts,

192

evidence, information that can hold up.

193

That's what a real lawyer does.

194

Well, you'll be happy to know that Stan has no idea what he's gonna do with the rest of his life.

195

That doesn't make me happy.

196

What if I tell you I have no idea what I'm doing with mine?

197

What the hell are we gonna do when I get caught, Harvey?

198

You're not gonna get caught.

199

That's your answer?

200

What else is there?

201

Why?

202

What?

203

Fire me.

204

Why would you do that to me?

205

You mean for your...

206

No, I don't.

207

You made it perfectly clear that you only do things for yourself, so why?

208

You mean the reason why I became a lawyer?

209

Or your friend dealt drugs?

210

Or you used to cheat?

211

I cheated because I need to- You couldn't make money any other way?

212

Bullshit.

213

Life is this.

214

I like this.

215

That's not me.

216

Well, if it wasn't me, you wouldn't be here.

217

So if you want this to stop,

218

all you gotta do is tap out.

219

What do you want from me?

220

What do you want from me?

221

Confess to the crime.

222

Turn in Jason Black.

223

No, I can't do that.

224

Yes, you can.

225

I'll tell you why.

226

You were 16.

227

A juvenile.

228

That's three years maximum.

229

Less if you're the one who comes forward.

230

We'll get you a deal.

231

You can't make that promise.

232

You're not the DA.

233

You'd rather negotiate with Jason?

234

Because he'll kill you and you know it.

235

It was his idea.

236

I didn't want to do it.

237

I didn't want to do it.

238

Okay.

239

Get dressed.

240

You come with me.

241

Go.

242

Hey, by the way, how'd you get that bruise?

243

Sometimes a good guy's gotta do bad things to make the bad guys pay.

244

That's right. Are you crazy?

245

You're gonna gamble a man's company?

246

What, no, you're gonna gamble for 30 million dollars?

247

It was your idea.

248

No, it was my idea to make him take the 500,000.

249

But it's not 500,000, it's 3.5 million.

250

Why give him that when I could take it for free?

251

Okay.

252

But let me take it.

253

What?

254

A minute ago you were ready to fold.

255

What are you gonna do if he goes all in?

256

Harvey, I know the odds of every card and every hand before it's even dealt.

257

Pick a card in your mind.

258

Any card.

259

What?

260

Okay, now you're gonna tell me what the card is?

261

I'm gonna tell you what it isn't.

262

It's not one of the 52 cards in a deck.

263

Because you think you're smarter than me,

264

it's a baseball card or a football card or... Or... is the Joker.

265

I told you this before,

266

I'm gonna tell you again.

267

I don't play the odds.

268

I play the man.

269

You offered Katrina Bennett a job?

270

I looked into her, turns out she's a stellar candidate.

271

You're right there.

272

A bribe requires a clear exchange of something for something else.

273

That didn't happen here.

274

Bullshit!

275

She said she'd put the deal through if you offered her a job.

276

She said she'd put the deal through,

277

then I offered a job.

278

Oh right, because you needed an insurance policy.

279

Because I could see exactly what you were gonna do.

280

So you offered her a job to get her to do what you wanted.

281

That's something for something else.

282

You bribed her.

283

You bet your ass I did.

284

But what you're too stupid to understand is,

285

I did it to save you.

286

Get it through your goddamn head.

287

You're not like other lawyers.

288

You break attorney-client privilege.

289

Nothing different happens with Liam.

290

They sure as shit gonna look into you,

291

and you and I both know what they're gonna find when they do.

292

What difference does it make what they find?

293

There's such thing as right and wrong, and we're wrong! and we're wrong!

294

You know what?

295

I have had it up to here with you blaming me for every hard choice that comes with this job.

296

Harvey, shut up!

297

Is your life better or worse than before I hired you?

298

It's both.

299

Well, maybe you should focus on the better

300

because the next time I have the option to cross a line to save you,

301

I'll send you packing and not think twice.

302

Now get your shit together.

303

How long you been waiting here?

304

Since I found out what you need.

305

What I need is for you to leave me alone.

306

No, what you need is information on Ava Hesington.

307

Look, in 2008, her company tried to destroy evidence of...

308

An oil spill?

309

Okay, well, in 2010...

310

They bought off a whistleblower.

311

And if the next thing you're gonna tell me is about an environmental impact study in 2006, don't.

312

You think you're not replaceable?

313

I got all that from an associate.

314

I picked at random.

315

I've been doing this before I met you,

316

and I'll be doing it long after I've forgotten all about you.

317

You had enough?

318

No. No, you know what?

319

I haven't, because you haven't.

320

Excuse me?

321

You haven't said whatever you have to say to rip me to shreds enough so that you can start to forgive me.

322

So go ahead.

323

Whatever it takes, I can take it.

324

Go.

325

Harvey, I am sorry, alright,

326

but I need you to listen to me now!

327

Listen to you?

328

You know when I would have listened to you? That night.

329

Jessica threatened me.

330

I don't care.

331

Anyone comes at you with any threat at all, you come to me.

332

I don't give a shit if it's the Queen of England.

333

You come to me, you tell me, you tell me everything!

334

That's what goddamn loyalty is.

335

Dom Perignon's on ice and Bloomberg's closing Broadway for the ticker tape parade.

336

You saw the sign?

337

Yeah.

338

Dream come true for any lawyer.

339

I don't have dreams, I have goals.

340

Now it's on to the next one.

341

I'm not dropping my suit when you're going public in two days.

342

James, you've read all about Hesington Oil.

343

The odds were stacked against me.

344

I won anyway.

345

Because I win.

346

You won because Edward Darby came forward.

347

You got lucky.

348

Guys like you always think other people get lucky.

349

I don't get lucky.

350

I make my own luck.

351

You're gonna push a meeting with me.

352

Harvey?

353

Logan Sanders is here to see you.

354

First of all, I don't appreciate you stomping into my office with an attitude.

355

Yeah, well, I don't appreciate being put off,

356

especially when I know that you never pushed a meeting with my father.

357

Your father never went to Jessica to set a meeting with me.

358

Then I assume that next time I call you directly,

359

you'll pick up the phone.

360

Logan, let me give you the ABCs of me.

361

I don't take meetings.

362

I set them.

363

And my respect isn't demanded.

364

It's earned.

365

That's only two things.

366

What's C?

367

C is for people who show me they know AMV.

368

What part of drag Mike Ross through the mud did you not understand?

369

The part where you come off looking like a rich, vindictive douchebag.

370

That's not your call to make.

371

Based on your years of experience and takeovers?

372

Here's something they didn't teach you in snowboarding school or wherever the hell you went before you decided to be a grown-up.

373

Never destroy anyone in public when you can accomplish the same result in private.

374

Mr. McKernan, Harvey Specter.

375

Mr. Spector, would you mind telling me why I have two different Pearson-Hardman lawyers on my schedule today?

376

I don't know, but after this,

377

you won't need to meet the other one.

378

You're cocky.

379

I'm right.

380

You're also traveling a little light.

381

Where's your PowerPoint presentation?

382

I don't need a PowerPoint presentation.

383

Why is that?

384

Because every lawyer in the city has tried to dazzle you,

385

and you're still looking for a date to the big dance,

386

because they don't know what you're looking for.

387

What exactly am I looking for?

388

Loyalty.

389

You're right.

390

Built this company from the ground up.

391

And everybody that started with me is still here.

392

And I know why.

393

You don't downsize in the bad times,

394

they stick with you in the good times,

395

and no other lawyer has figured that out.

396

Not a single one.

397

Well, I'm the one, Avery.

398

Which is why I know you don't want me dumping you for a bigger client down the line.

399

How do I know you won't do that?

400

Because that's not the way I work.

401

Well, it's a hell of a nice sentiment.

402

But how do I know you're not full of shit?

403

I'm glad you asked. Because...

404

here's my PowerPoint presentation.

405

Thank you.

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.
