1
Is he free?
2
Not for you.
3
How much did he tell you?
4
He didn't have to tell me.
5
face.
6
- You heard him.
7
- Maybe he did the same to me.
8
Get in there. And be careful.
9
Harvey.
10
We talked about this, right?
11
Barging into my office?
12
I'm not leaving till you hear me out.
13
You want to bet?
14
You owe it to me.
15
Oh, I owe it to you?
16
Yeah.
17
Look, this is not my fault, all right?
18
Lewis made me do it.
19
Lewis did, right.
20
He put a gun to your head and made you smoke pot.
21
Yeah, he did.
22
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.
23
- Oh, my God.
24
It's not so different than asking someone out for drinks, is it?
25
You and I had a deal.
26
I'm sorry.
27
And if next time Lewis asks you to do something that I told you not to do, what then?
28
I told you that I did not have a choice.
29
Oh, because he had a gun to your head.
30
Yes!
31
And what are your choices if someone puts a gun to your head?
32
What are you talking about?
33
You do what they say or they shoot you.
34
Wrong.
35
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.
36
If you can't think for yourself, maybe you aren't cut out for this.
37
I can and I am.
38
Look, I did what I had to do.
39
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.
40
Yeah, I hired you and I expect your loyalty.
41
So if Lewis asks you to do something like that, you come to me first.
42
Oh, right.
43
Like when I came to you and you told me that I couldn't sit at the adult table.
44
Right, I remember that.
45
Or when you told me to go file the patent by myself.
46
Like that?
47
Excuse me?
48
You know what?
49
Maybe it's time you show me some loyalty.
50
Do you know how long it was before I got to sit at the adult table?
51
It was when I brought in my first client, which I don't recall you having done it.
52
And when you screwed up that patent and Wyatt went apeshit on me, I didn't put that on you.
53
I took it on myself because that's my job.
54
And it's your job to do what I say when I say it.
55
So if you're talking about loyalty, You better god damn earn it.
56
It's a brother!
57
Thank you.
58
He said, "I'm sorry," and I meant it.
59
Harvey.
60
I want you to trust-- I need you to trust me, OK?
61
And I will work as hard as I can, as long as it takes, to make that happen.
62
You-- you don't even have to pay me, all right?
63
I'll work for free.
64
. For free.
65
Well, I meant not forever, just like as a probationary thing.
66
Donna, tell Wyatt I'm on my way over.
67
You never have to press a button on me.
68
Got it.
69
And Jessica wants to see Mike in her office right now.
70
- Louis told me what you did at the club.
71
I bet he didn't tell you the whole story.
72
You told me enough to impress me.
73
New business is hard.
74
People will promise you the world, but until they sign that engagement letter, means nothing.
75
I don't know.
76
What you told Tom Keller?
77
But bring a client in at your age.
78
That reminds me of Harvey.
79
Jessica, before we get started, there's something in the retainer that Tom pointed out.
80
It's not a big deal, really.
81
We were just...
82
No, no, no, no, no, no. Like I said, we're here to make you happy.
83
Right?
84
I thought you wanted nothing to do with him.
85
I didn't.
86
Then I thought about it.
87
You may not be a very good person, A bottle of deviousness is the sort of thing you live for in a good lawyer.
88
I mean, the other guy I was with, he was too nice.
89
We were buddies, we went to school together.
90
It's time I grew up.
91
I got a real shark.
92
Well, I had no intention of being that way to get your business.
93
That's exactly why I insisted that you be my point, man.
94
I want someone being devious for me, not to me.
95
What?
96
It's just, Lewis never would have told Jessica that I existed, let alone that I helped him if you hadn't done that.
97
Anyway, I see it.
98
If the three of us stick together, we'll make a pretty good team.
99
You know, I've got a better idea.
100
Bye.
101
- Yeah.

このレッスンについて

このレッスンでは、ドラマ「Suits」の一部のトランスクリプトを使って、実用的な英語スピーキング練習を行います。会話の流れや感情表現を理解し、影響力のある表現を使えるようになることを目指します。このシーンは、信頼や忠誠についての重要なテーマが扱われており、実際のビジネスシーンでのコミュニケーションを模倣するのに最適です。英語のスピーキング能力を向上させるためのshadow speechを行い、自然な会話を身につけましょう。

練習のヒント

この動画のトランスクリプトを使用しての練習では、速さとトーンに注意を払うことが重要です。会話が速い場合でも、shadowing siteを活用して、声を出して繰り返すことで聴き取り能力が向上します。特に感情的な表現には気を付け、言葉の強弱やイントネーションを意識しましょう。

まずは、ゆっくりとしたスピードでトランスクリプトを声に出して読み、それから徐々に速さを上げてみてください。英語スピーキング練習においては、shadowingが非常に効果的です。特に、IELTS スピーキング対策としても利用できる方法です。自分の発音やリズムを録音して確認することも、自己改善につながります。

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
