1
Thank you.
2
Thank you.
3
- I'm sorry.
4
My future is so bright, Jim.
5
Jim, do you know how bright my future is?
6
It's so bright that...
7
What?
8
Do you know?
9
Is there something I gotta wear?
10
Thank you.
11
Huh?
12
- - Cagels.
13
Dwight was the top salesman of the year at our company.
14
He wins a little prize money and gets honored at some convention.
15
That's what she said.
16
Ha!
17
I don't get it.
18
Grapes?
19
Seductive?
20
So, you ready for the big speech this afternoon?
21
Well, that's not really a big speech.
22
You're still coming, right?
23
Oh, abso -fruitly.
24
Fruit, grapes, nailed the joke, matter of time.
25
And yes, it is a big speech, biggest of your life.
26
Speaker at the sales convention, been there, done that.
27
Went there again, did it again.
28
Two years in a row.
29
consecutive I can't do this.
30
That's because you're incapable of doing it, because you don't know how because you have no skills.
31
Dwight goes to Michael for pep talks. To Michael.
32
And what a lot of people don't understand about sales is that it has so much to do with organization.
33
I have a system in place for keeping track of who I speak to when I speak to them, and what we have discussed.
34
Et cetera.
35
That's it.
36
You're going to end with et cetera?
37
Okay, what's this big organizational system?
38
Well, do you think I should describe our filing system?
39
Duh, that would be suicide.
40
Never talk specifics.
41
Not in a speech.
42
But the fact that you have no idea what to say is, believe it or not, the least of our worries.
43
- It is?
44
- It's your delivery.
45
- What is?
46
- Our biggest worry.
47
- I don't follow.
48
- My God, Dwight, the best way to learn is by watching.
49
That's why porn is a multi -trillion dollar industry.
50
Listen, okay.
51
Sit down, let me wow you.
52
- Ahem.
53
- Ah!
54
- Oh, God.
55
See?
56
Have your attention now, don't I?
57
You're scared, but now you're ready to learn.
58
But seriously, what's the difference between a salesman and a saleswoman?
59
A saleswoman has a vagina.
60
It's a joke, Dwight.
61
It's not a sex -ed class.
62
But I'm right.
63
Yeah, you're right about the difference between a man and a woman, but not about the punchline to the joke.
64
right?
65
The difference between a salesman and a saleswoman is boobs.
66
Hey, do you remember the speeches that you gave?
67
I do, both of them.
68
Could I have a copy of one of them?
69
No, no, they would remember.
70
Look, it doesn't matter what you say.
71
It just matters that you're saying something that people care about.
72
Attention, please.
73
I have some very great news from corporate.
74
We had a wonderful quarter, and as a result, All of you are getting bonuses for $1 ,000.
75
Yeah!
76
Congratulations.
77
You see that?
78
You see how they responded to me?
79
That moment, I had them.
80
That is so great about the bonus!
81
No, no, it's not true.
82
I was just...
83
talking.
84
So just go out there and say anything.
85
Delete it up.
86
Great audience.
87
Go ahead, get the wallpaper.
88
Wallpaper to the ceiling if you want.
89
Excuse me?
90
May I have your attention, please?
91
There has been an accident on 84 West.
92
Cars have skidded off the road into the safety railing.
93
Several cars have flipped.
94
There is broken glass everywhere.
95
Several people are injured.
96
Do we know anyone who was in the accident?
97
Brad Pitt.
98
Also, there will be no bonuses.
99
Why would this affect our bonuses?
100
They're unrelated.
101
Is Brad okay?
102
He will never act again.
103
Also, this branch is closing.
104
What the hell's going on here?
105
- Are we out of jobs?
106
- Yes.
107
- This is karma because of what he did to Jennifer Aniston.
108
- He was kidding.
109
Dwight was kidding.
110
And I don't know why, because it wasn't funny, and it was just horrible.
111
- Michael.
112
- Yeah.
113
- You said we were getting bonuses.
114
- That was just a funny joke.
115
Remember, you applauded.
116
So nobody's hurt?
117
I don't know about that.
118
People are injured in car accidents every 4 .5 seconds.
119
Shut.
120
It.
121
Come on.
122
All right, listen up, please.
123
Dwight has a joke.
124
Thank you.
125
Thank you.
126
Stop it.
127
Two sailors walk into a bar.
128
Please don't tell a sailor joke.
129
Oh, why not?
130
Her nephew's in Iraq.
131
Iraq is sand.
132
Sailors are on water.
133
Yes, but...
134
They're both in danger.
135
-Yeah, well, you know what?
136
We need to...
137
All right.
138
Corporate purchase, um, airtime in local markets to spread the word about Dunder Mifflin Infinity, and they are even sending up a professional ad company to help us make it later.
139
Michael Scott, regional manager.
140
Hi Michael, nice to meet you.
141
Excited to talk ideas.
142
I want this to be cutting edge.
143
I want it to be fast.
144
Quick cuts.
145
I would like you to meet Andrew Bernard, the nard dog.
146
Ooh, let the Nord Dog out.
147
- He gives the best back rubs in the office you know, youthful.
148
Now this gentleman right here is the key to our urban vibe.
149
Urban.
150
Phyllis.
151
It's like our Mrs. Butterworth.
152
kind of a less urban Aunt Jemima.
153
MTV on crack kind of thing.
154
- That sounds great.
155
- All right.
156
That's what Nashua came up with? That sucks.
157
Wow.
158
That's what we came up with.
159
-Well, we can do better than that.
160
-Well, the main part of the ad has to stay the same, actually.
161
-Yeah, it's the last five seconds where we have some leeway.
162
You could call from Eddie Murphy.
163
there.
164
Thank you.
165
Hello?
166
Shrek!
167
Shrek, I'm a donkey!
168

169
It's me!
170
Hello, Ry!
171
- What?
172
- Here is the deal.
173
The ad guys that you sent are locking me in a creative box and sort of ignoring my ideas.
174
That's good.
175
They're creative.
176
You're not.
177
I'm delegating creativity to creative professionals.
178
It's a different skill set.
179
Hey, guys.
180
Um, you know what?
181
We cannot shoot this ad today.
182
-Okay, when should we come back?
183
-How about never 100 hours, sir?
184
- Wait, we were sent here to help-- - No, I'm not gonna argue with this guy.
185
Let's go.
186
Good luck, dude.
187
-Hey, thanks.
188
-Thank you.
189
Michael, David Wallace, what is this about dismissing the ad people?
190
Yeah, I'm glad you called.
191
Ryan is being a little bitch again.
192
Come on, Michael.
193
What's up, my brother?
194
I would like to do this ad in -house.
195
I want to use only the creativity that we have right here in the office
196
and I will send it to you tomorrow morning.
197
We have three scenes to film, big scenes.
198
We have a song to write, so let's get cracking.
199

205
Let's wrap.
206
Okay, Darryl, wow.
207
You need to learn a lot about your own culture.
208
I'll make you a mix.
209
Wow, wow, this looks, uh, terrible.
210
This is a pivotal scene in the ad.
211
And if we don't get this, if we don't nail it, we're gonna lose the whole triumph of the moment.
212
Well, It's been tough.
213
The geniuses at corporate rejected my commercial.
214
And tonight they are airing the Braindead version.

280
Well, Jan has this schoolgirl fantasy.
281
It's a pretty common one.
282
I feel uncomfortable wearing the dress.
283
Okay.
284
I'm going to be at the doll store.
285
Michael, you shouldn't do anything that you're uncomfortable with.
286
Chance has anything that doesn't scare us It's not worth it.
287
I don't know, maybe we're different people.
288
I like cuddling and spooning and she likes videotaping us during sex.
289
Oh my god.
290
Ohhhh.
291
And then watching it back right afterward to improve my form.
292
That is not healthy behavior.
293
No, it's not that bad.
294
The worst part is, that she shows you to her therapist and they discuss it.
295
Michael, you need to get out of this.
296
Nah.
297
She's fooling around.
298
It's a woman thing.
299
Now, normal women don't do stuff like that.
300
bad.
301
- Oh.
302
It's all right, I'm OK.
303
I'm OK.
304
- Oh.
305
You guys...
306
What am I gonna do about Jan?
307
- - I cannot believe this yogurt has no calorie.
308
No one said it has no calories.
309
Oh, hey.
310
Guys?
311
I want to do something nice for you because you did something so nice for me earlier.
312
I want you to go in there I want you to buy one item on me as a thank you.
313
Come on.
314
Get in here.
315
Look at that!
316
Come on!
317
Free underwear.
318
It is totally inappropriate.
319
But on the other hand, Let's face it most guys are from the dark ages they're cavemen
320
and they like a woman to be showing a her cleavage and to be wearing eight -inch heels,
321
and to be wearing see -through Underpants. But...
322
For me, A woman looks best.
323
when she is just absolutely naked.
324
- The first time we have been in the Mmm.
325
You don't want anything?
326
My treat.
327
- Some panties or?
328
Like a thong or...
329
G -string?
330
T -back.
331
Get a nice bra.
332
padded bra.
333
See -through, push -up.
334
Lace?
335
thigh high, bustier, anything.
336
You know what, I would love to buy you a fresh set of underwear.
337
Ellis.
338
What do you think, too much?
339
Jim's gonna love it.
340
Thank you.
341
Thank you.
342
I'm kind of in between boyfriends right now, so...
343
I don't need anything sexy.
344
but I do need some new hand towels.
345
I figure I can cut up this robe.
346
slower.
347
It's lower.
348
- Meriden, slow it up.
349
- What are you doing with my lunch?
350
- I'm delivering it from the fridge.
351
It's like a porno.
352
"Hey, did anybody order a pizza?" It's not pizza.
353
Yeah, and we're not about to make love.
354
I just thought maybe you'd want to eat lunch at your desk today
355
so that during lunch we could go down to the warehouse and bang out a few tunes.
356
I like the sound of that.
357
Is Kevin here?
358
Uh, you tell me.
359
Frankly, I could use a little fun.
360
All day long, it's just.. delegate, delegate, delegate.
361
Let someone else do that for a while.

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.
