Shut up, Tommy!

You're fired.
43
But.. give me another chance, sir, I beg you.

I'm sorry sir, this would never happen again.

Brian, I am appointing you as head of your shift.

Oh, thank you, sir.

If you notice something suspicious, let me know. Is that so?

Then I'd like to say something about him right away.

I'm listening.

He always takes the last bottle of beer from the fridge.

I don't have time for your stupid jokes, Brian.

And wait for the boss's beautiful daughter.

Does the shops profit for this month?

to be a seasoned criminal who hid his past.

Here.

I asked Mr. Frank from the police to look at his criminal record.
127
Check this out. Did you read it?
128
Read what?
129
Thomas Fox was sentenced to five years in prison.
130
Read on.
131
for committing an assault on a person on the night of November 27th, at the corner of 83rd and Caldwell Avenue.
132
That's the day you were attacked on the street.
133
That very place.
134
Someone tried to rob me.
135
A random passerby stood up for me and I was able to escape.
136
So this scam also attacked you?
137
It's him!
138
He's one who stood up for me.
139
Did the cops arrest him after?
140
Yes.
141
So it turns out that...
142
He saved me.
143
And I didn't let him say a word.
144
We have to go to the police urgently.
145
They have him now.
146
What's going on?
147
Don't worry, Brian.
148
The police are conducting an investigation to collect all of evidence against this scoundrel.
149
Oh, okay.
150
I was worried that...
151
That's right.
152
That's what he needs.
153
By the way, do you remember exactly how you caught Tommy yesterday?
154
Sure.
155
Yeah.
156
I was passing by your office and so it was open.
157
And I looked in. And...
158
And there he was, Tommy, opening the drawer and taking out money.
159
That's what I thought.
160
Yeah.
161
Well, then this criminal needs to be punished.
162
Take him.
163
What are you doing?
164
I think you are the only criminal here.
165
There are no signs of lock being broken.
166
The door and drawer were opened with the keys.
167
With that keys.
168
Take him away.
169
Come on!
170
Eh!
171
Brian knew about my jail time, so...
172
blackmailed me and, uh...
173
He was trying to get money of that customer.
174
But why were you afraid to tell the truth?
175
I was afraid that you would fire me, sir.
176
Tommy, you can always tell me the truth.
177
Thank you, sir.
178
There is one person who wants to talk to you.
179
Sophie?
180
I just remember you.
181
Thank you.
182
If I had known that they would put everything on you.
183
That's.. it's alright.
184
I think it belongs to you.
185
And what about a beer?
186
Really?
187
So Brian lied about this too?
188
What a jerk!

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.
