Creating lesson...
1
Ah!
2
It's like a whole new level of awesome.
3
Welcome back, everyone.
4
You are the final 12 remaining young, talented home cooks left in this competition.
5
In the last challenge, three of you had the best dishes.
6
Remind me who they were, please.
7
Una, Samuel, and Shaw.
8
You three, stay down here.
9
Everybody else, step over here, please.
10
Now it is time for a special challenge just for you three.
11
Yes!
12
It's all about...
13
Oh!
14
Pancakes.
15
Yes!
16
Oh, yeah.
17
My favorite, your favorite, America's favorite.
18
Pancakes?
19
Seriously?
20
I'm more of an Eggs Benedict gal.
21
Please, head back to one of those pancake stations behind you.
22
At home, I usually make pancakes for my parents.
23
I like to get really creative, and so my mom and dad have some fantastic pancakes.
24
At your stations, you have everything that you need to make us some delicious pancakes.
25
Twelve burners, a humongous bowl of pancake batter, and one plate.
26
One?
27
That's right, only one plate, because we want you to stack as many pancakes as you can on that single plate in just six minutes.
28
Ugh.
29
Oh, no. The person with the highest number of pancakes in their stack will win a huge advantage in the next challenge.
30
But more importantly, the winner will get to save one of us from.. this.
31
Whoa!
32
Sierra.
33
Yeah!
34
Sticky maple syrup just waiting to be poured on the judge's head.
35
Now listen, Sean, you are stacking to save me.
36
Samuel, you are flipping pancakes to save Gramp.
37
And Una, you are trying to save Gordon.
38
Oh, man.
39
Una, do you have any idea how long it takes me to get my hair looking this good every day?
40
Please protect me.
41
Tonight, we want to see round, perfectly cooked pancakes.
42
If you try to flip those pancakes before they're ready, trust me, they'll stick and they'll be ruined.
43
If you mess up your pancake, you cannot stack it on the plate.
44
Got it?
45
Your six minutes to flip as many pancakes and save one of us judges starts now.
46
Go, go, go!
47
Go, go, go!
48
Oh, oh.
49
My strategy is to move fast.
50
I have tunnel vision on the pancake batter.
51
I don't think about the judges, I don't think about my competitors.
52
I think about getting those pancakes on the plate and saving ground.
53
Samuel, Samuel!
54
Come on, Uda!
55
Come on, Sean, let's go!
56
The trick for making pancakes is to make sure they are not underdone, or else they're gonna stick and break apart.
57
Let them cook, let them cook!
58
Pancakes can go wrong really fast really fast.
59
They could be overcooked, they could burn, they could break.
60
Ah!
61
Oh no!
62
Oh, man!
63
It broke!
64
I'm not really off to the best start.
65
I'm not like maestro pancake flippery.
66
Four minutes to go!
67
Four minutes!
68
Una!
69
I'm working!
70
I'm working!
71
I'm really for Una because for some reason I just don't want Gordon Ramsay to get syrup all over his head.
72
Faster, Una!
73
Faster!
74
Oh, God!
75
Dump it, dump it, dump it!
76
Dump it, dump it.
77
It's crazy.
78
Joe can be really intimidating.
79
I don't want to make him mad.
80
Let's go, Shawn.
81
Come on.
82
So I got to pick up the pace to win this.
83
Two minutes to go.
84
Oh, no!
85
Flip, flip!
86
Let's go, Shawn.
87
Too tall.
88
I believe in your pancakes.
89
Graham is really nice, so I'm rooting for Samuel because I want Gordon and Joe to be drenched in syrup.
90
Yes, there you go.
91
That's it.
92
Stack them.
93
Joe's my favorite judge, so I want Joe to be saved from the syrup.
94
30 seconds back!
95
Oh, my gosh!
96
Oh, it's all spancakes faster!
97
You want me to flip them!
98
Come on, Luna!
99
Oh, no!
100
She dropped it!
101
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
102
Yeah!
103
Yay!
104
Time is up, guys.
105
Please, very carefully, bring your plates up to the front.
106
That is so many pancakes.
107
Samuel's stack of pancakes is about that big, and Sean's is about that big, too.
108
I'm screwed.
109
Sorry, Gordon.
110
Hand us your pancakes, please.
111
Walking up to Gordon, he looked so angry.
112
He was, like, giving me the eye, like...
113
Sorry, Gordon.
114
Una, is there another plate there?
115
No. What?
116
This is it?
117
No. Okay, very carefully, all three of you, head up to the stairs.
118
This is the most fun challenge to lose at.
119
I mean, you want to lose at this challenge.
120
Okay, Una, let's find out how many pancakes you cooked.
121
One, two, three, four, five.
122
Bite missing.
123
Six, seven, eight.
124
Eight.
125
That's it.
126
Sorry.
127
So me next.
128
One, two, three, four.
129
I'm comparing my pancake stack with Sean's, and it looks pretty even.
130
Right now, it's a little too close to call.
131
14, 15, 16.
132
Wow, good job.
133
Good job.
134
That's my BFF.
135
I need more than 16 pancakes on this plate to be safe.
136
We got one, two, three.
137
I'm thinking, no. If he beats me by one, two, or three pancakes, I'm going to be furious.
138
14, 15, 16, Samuel.
139
Sorry, Graham.
140
17, 18, and the top one is 19.
141
Wow.
142
Wow!
143
Good job, Sean.
144
Yeah!
145
I won.
146
And the best part, I get to see Gordon and Graham drenched with syrup.
147
Una, since you had the least amount of pancakes, we will begin with you.
148
Oh, Gordon.
149
Gordon Ramsay, I want to see him just doused in syrup.
150
This can't get any better.
151
Now, very carefully, begin pouring that sticky maple syrup on that hair.
152
Gordon is going to be swimming in sticky, hard to get out of your hair syrup.
153
Let's see what you got.
154
Oh.
155
Easy, easy.
156
Sorry, Gordon.
157
Not easy.
158
No!
159
No!
160
No!
161
You can do it.
162
Oh!
163
Woo!
164
Yes!
165
Yes!
166
Yes!
167
Yes!
168
Yes!
169
Yes!
170
Oh!
171
Oh!
172
Oh!
173
Una, since you had the least amount of pancakes, we will begin with you.
174
Dun dun dun!
175
Dun dun!
176
Gordon!
177
Hi, Jordan.
178
Let's see what you got.
179
Oh, easy, easy.
180
Not easy.
181
Whoa!
182
Whoo!
183
Yes!
184
Good job!
185
Yes!
186
This is the best challenge ever.
187
The only thing I wish I could change is me getting four pink syrup over the judge's head.
188
Okay, Samuel, next.
189
Graham, let's go.
190
All right, I'm gonna take it like a man.
191
Nice and easy, begin.
192
Go, go, go!
193
Oh, yes!
194
Oh!
195
Oh!
196
Oh, my God!
197
Dude!
198
What did I ever do to you, Samuel?
199
Oh.
200
I don't think Graham holds as many grudges as, say, Gordon or Joe would, but he'll always have that place on his vendetta chart for me.
201
I am so lucky that I was saved by my friend Shawn.
202
You're welcome Shawn You know you know that he deserves this.
203
No, you know
204
Nice, guys!
205
Oh, man!
206
Seeing all the judges miserable dumped in syrup is like a whole new level of awesomeness.
207
Sean, because you won the pancake challenge, you will have a huge advantage in the next phase of this competition.
208
Congratulations, Sean.
209
Good job.
210
Good job, Sean.
211
Guys, join your friends while we get cleaned up.
212
All the judges look like they need a really, really long shower.
213
Oh, my God!
214
Oh, good job!
215
you

Practice Tips

To optimize your learning, try utilizing shadowing techniques with this video. Start by listening carefully to the dialogue which features quick exchanges and playful banter. Repeat phrases as closely as possible to how the speakers say them, focusing on their tone and rhythm. Since the pace is fast, it’s beneficial to pause the video after each sentence to allow yourself time to mimic the pronunciation and intonation. This will help improve your shadowspeak skills, making you more confident when speaking.

Additionally, pay attention to the context in which words and phrases are used. For example, when someone mentions stacking pancakes, visualize the action while saying the phrase aloud. Try to incorporate your own experiences with cooking to create a personal connection with the vocabulary. Using shadowspeech strategies, you can also practice with a partner by taking turns mimicking each other’s speech, focusing on clarity and expression. This method can help reinforce your learning and enhance your overall speaking abilities.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
