1
Hello, gentlemen.
2
My name is Phil.
3
I don't care what your name is.
4
Why do I have to wait 10 minutes for the serving staff to come over and take my order?
5
But I'm not a...
6
You are not what?
7
You didn't want to be a waiter?
8
Couldn't you at least get me some water, you idiot?
9
Yeah, right.
10
Why are you standing here with your mouth open?
11
Just go.
12
Go.
13
And do as you're told.
14
Oh, yeah.
15
I'm sorry.
16
Frank, buddy, I'm sorry, I just...
17
No, no, no, no, no, you're absolutely right.
18
Sometimes staff needs to be reminded that they're actual responsibilities, you know?
19
Yeah, you're right.
20
So where is your young genius that you were so excited about on the phone?
21
Well, you know, he'll be here any minute.
22
Can I get a jug of water, please?
23
Uh, what about in a glass?
24
Thank you, but I need a jug and a tray.

Just a moment.
27
I'm guessing traffic, well, You know, I'm gonna call him.

Okay.
30
Well done there.
31
Quick thinking.
32
Boss, what is the meaning of all this?
33
What is going on?
34
Okay, I know you angry.
35
But who knew that Goodman was such a prejudiced racist?
36
Nothing.
37
What about you?
38
How are you any better than Goodman if you're playing along with it?
39
What else could I do?
40
If we don't sign a deal with him tonight, we're as good as broke.
41
And, um, another thing.
42
He cannot know that you developed an app.
43
Uh, 'cause he'll just walk away.
44
So what are we going to do?
45
I have an idea.
46
Hey buddy.
47
Yes sir?
48
You wanna make some money?
49
Uh, well, uh, maybe, why not?
50
Mr. Goodman?
51
is finally here.
52
This is calling.
53
Colin, this is Mr. Goodman.
54
Mr. Goodman?
55
- So...
56
You are the genius IT guy.
57
That's right, Mr. Goodman.
58
- Yeah.
59
Computers.
60
Coach, all that stuff, you know.
61
I see him.
62
Well, tell me Colin.
63
Why should I invest in your app?
64
What are the three top benefits?
65
Um...
66
Okay, the first one is, um...
67
First one is algorithm.
68
Algorithm.
69
It analyzes all the.. and gives the users.. gives the users most favorable ones.
70
Yeah.
71
The second one is...
72
Accessibility.
73
Accessibility.
74
Yes.
75
Accessibility.
76
Yes.
77
It requires.. sorry...
78
a few more resources to...
79
Hold on.
80
Why are we wearing these headphones?
81
Are you so bored with me that you decide to listen to music at the same time?
82
Oh, Mr. Goodman, the thing is that Colin
83
is a team leader of a whole team of specialists who work around the croc to improve the product.
84
So he used to be in touch.
85
Then let him make an exception.
86
It is respectful.
87
- Okay, Colin.
88
Take your headphones off, please.
89
What?
90
Okay, smart guy.
91
What language was the app written in?
92
I don't know.
93
- He is.
94
- Yeah.
95
- He is funny and go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
96
Joking all the time.
97
- Calling.
98
I'm talking about the programming language.
99
I'm going to go.
100
You know.
101
That's, um...
102
Mr. Goodman, I think Colin has answered all your questions.
103
The only questions left: do you like the product?
104
Yes, but...
105
Well, let's give the formality and shake on it.
106
Excuse me, Frank, but before I invest in anything, I need to know all the details.
107
So, Colin, I'd like to hear your answer on my question.
108
Ready please.
109
Oh, sir.
110
Take it.
111
What language would you have?
112
Nah -ha!
113
It's not a problem, Mr. Goodman.
114
It's a scene, two crosses.
115
See to crosses.
116
Oh, two crosses, yeah.
117
C did it, two crosses!
118
Maybe, uh, C++, no?
119
- - I love you.
120
- Well, Mr. Goodman, your version is also good.
121
It's, um...
122
Now, all these C's...
123
It's so easy to mix up.
124
Really, yeah.
125
Okay.
126
That's enough.
127
Did he think I'm in Egypt?
128
Do you really expect...
129
I need to believe that this kid who doesn't know what C++ is.
130
Isn't genius IT?
131
Yeah.
132
How much did he pay you?
133
Hmm?
134
Did he pay anything?
135
You know, it doesn't matter.
136
- Yeah.
137
dismissed.
138
Frank, we're actually developing the app.
139
Phil!
140
What?
141
The black guy?
142
Now you understand why I've been hiding it from you.
143
No way.
144
The blacks can do that stuff.
145
They can barely read.
146
Their entire memory is reserved for hip -hop and basketball rooms.
147
Well, times are changing.
148
Now they even write code.
149
The only thing that hasn't changed is that they still work for us.
150
The White's.
151
- This is a good point, Vati.
152
- Same thing with Phil.
153
I keep him only for profit.
154
I can throw him out into the cold any moment. So, Friend.
155
Huh?
156
- Okay.
157
Maybe this moment has come.
158
Mm -hmm.
159
Frank has done his job.
160
Right.
161
What we do need him for?
162
Let's make a deal and split the profit 50 /50.
163
Screw Phil!
164
Let's do this.
165
Okay.
166
Hopefully with the next line. And...
167
Bam!
168
Thank you.
169
Thank you.
170
Hey you!
171
Yes, you!
172
Get us some champagne.
173
- To champagne, please.
174
I think there's something wrong with the pen.
175
It doesn't work.
176
Or maybe it doesn't work in the hands of...
177
...disonless people and racists.
178
What?
179
Phil, buddy, sit down, please.
180
Please.
181
Is this some kind of a joke?
182
No, no, no. Sit down.
183
Frank.
184
Yeah?
185
I'm investing in this project a million dollars.
186
Do you really think I wouldn't ask you?
187
Who is creating it?
188
Of course I found out it was a Feel.
189
Thank you.
190
Thank you, but I really don't understand what's going on.
191
Sorry, Fear, for this show.
192
From the start I knew that you created it.
193
And you are a decent person.
194
unlike your boss.
195
the racist and slippery person who won't even think of standing up for his subordinates,
196
and easily abandon him for the money.
197
Phil, it's not what it looks like.
198
I was acting in our mutual interest, and Mr. Goodman, perhaps we misunderstood the child.
199
I know who you are, and you can bet your bosses are about to find out too.
200
Oh, come on, Mr. Goodman, please.
201
Only one thing you have time to do.
202
Yeah?
203
Is Henning your resignation?
204
- Sure.
205
I'm going to show you the...
206
- I'm so sorry.
207
Well, he'll...
208
I'll see you next week.
209
I will come to your office and...
210
We'll sign the contract with you.
211
Thank you.
212
Mr. Goodman.
213
I won't let you know.
214
I know you won't.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
