1
I just forwarded you a request from Ted about the SureTech account.
2
Grace?
3
Chung?
4
Hey.
5
Hi.
6
How did you know I work here?
7
You work here.
8
Isn't that why you're here? In Toronto?
9
No, I mean, why are you here here at the car rental?
10
To rent a car?
11
Right, yeah, sorry.
12
I'm just surprised to see you.
13
I thought you lived in Vancouver.
14
I do.
15
That's why I need to rent a car here.
16
My Uma told me that...
17
That my Uma told her that this was the place to come?
18
Yeah.
19
Yep.
20
Terrence.
21
This is Terrence.
22
I feel like maybe he should help you out.
23
Probably for the best.
24
Terrence, this is Grace Lee.
25
She'd like to ride the car.
26
Great.
27
You've come to the right place.
28
Hey.
29
Everything okay?
30
All right, be honest with me.
31
Did I look like a complete idiot out there?
32
No. You couldn't look like an idiot if you tried.
33
Seemed like I was trying pretty hard.
34
What'd I miss?
35
Grace Lee.
36
No!
37
Yeah.
38
She's here in the office?
39
An ex-girlfriend?
40
Chung's high school number one honey bun bun.
41
So you dated. Who didn't?
42
I wouldn't say as much dating as...
43
Kim?
44
I was just gonna say it was mostly sex.
45
Okay.
46
Okay, let's keep things professional here.
47
I know how hard it can be to run into someone at the workplace that you have feelings for.
48
Well... Or did.
49
Or still do.
50
Hey, why is she here?
51
I thought she hated you.
52
I think my umma's still trying to get us back together.
53
That explains why your umma called asking what time you were working today.
54
Why didn't you tell me?
55
Dude, not your secretary.
56
I should talk to her.
57
Well, there are other options, but who am I to stand in the way of love?
58
Excuse me.
59
Yeah, of course.
60
Hey.
61
Hey.
62
So that was weird, back there.
63
Yeah, it was. But whatever.
64
Uh, listen, I just wanted to say sorry about what happened in high school.
65
What happened in high school? in high school.
66
The thing I did to make you hate me?
67
You're gonna have to be a bit more specific than that.
68
I remember, uh, going to your house for family dinner.
69
I think I had a little vodka before I showed up.
70
More than a little.
71
I remember punching a tree.
72
That was my uncle.
73
Also remember throwing up on a tree.
74
Also my uncle.
75
You really don't remember that?
76
I know I was a bit of an idiot.
77
Yeah, you were.
78
So, you pretty busy while you're here?
79
Lots of meetings.
80
So you're all booked up.
81
You know, if you're gonna ask me out, you better hurry up, because I charge by the hour.
82
That didn't sound good.
83
I meant charge you because I'm a lawyer and not a sexist.
84
Will you go to dinner with me tonight?
85
Yes.
86
Why don't you give me a call when we finish all your meetings?
87
I'll have one of my many assistants call you.
88
Call you.
89
Wait, I didn't check the car for dents.
90
Don't worry, Terrence.
91
I won't tell Shannon.
92
You better tell Shannon.

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.
