1
What do you have in mind?
2
Get down!
3
Thrilling enough for you, Walter?
4
Any calls in his phone records to this address?
5
No, but we could check his bank records for payments.
6
We'd need a warrant for that.
7
I'd rather just start knocking on doors.
8
We're gonna need more people.
9
You'll have to clear that with that.
10
Okay, everybody!
11
Outside!
12
Outside!
13
Come on!
14
It's not a drill!
15
Oh, God.
16
Jane, why'd you do that?
17
Yeah, that's the way.
18
I'll try and talk to her.
19
You've got enough talking!
20
Hi.
21
I don't know.
22
Now get down face down on the street
23
I've heard from a couple of reliable sources that you and Kirby Hines were having an affair.
24
Some kind of sexual relationship.
25
That's a damn lie.
26
Are you sure, Roddy?
27
Lying to a CBI agent is a very serious offense.
28
I was in the Marine Corps.
29
Oh, really?
30
Well, that says it all.
31
I'm ex -army.
32
Marine Corps suck eggs.
33
But hey, no point in arguing over the phone.
34
We'll sort this out when I get out to your location.
35
Semper Fi, sissy britches.
36
He's running!
37
Hey.
38
Jane.
39
What are you doing?
40
You see that?
41
They say there's no seasons in California.
42
That looks like fall.
43
Now it looks like you need a doctor.
44
I am kind of dizzy.
45
I found it in Doyle Murphy's lower intestine.
46
My supposition is
47
that he swallowed it in an attempt to get a larger share of the loot before it was divided with any partners.
48
Well, I guess Murphy misread that situation, huh?
49
Do you find anything else surprising in there other than that?
50
Just that.
51
Ow!
52
What the hell was that?
53
Uh, I, um, had a hunch that it was a fake.
54
Guess I'm wrong about that.
55
Uh, yeah? Where is it?
56
Well, the good news is it's not out there, so it's in here somewhere.
57
I'll find it.
58
Anyone see your little, uh, patoo?
59
You tweaked the assistant district attorney's nose in this very room.
60
Speaking of yourself in the third person, Mark, you gotta admit, it sounds a little silly.
61
Yes, I tweaked your nose.
62
Your Honor, we're done here.
63
Mr. Jane admits the crime.
64
But in my defense, you're being very annoying.
65
Mr. Jane, you're out of order.
66
You're out of order.
67
You're out of order.
68
This whole trial's out of order.
69
Oh, come on, you gotta admit, you walked right into that one.
70
Hey, what's his name?
71
Franklin.
72
Cool it, boy. May I?
73
I have a way with dogs.
74
Hey, Franklin.
75
How are you?
76
How are you?

79
You wanted freedom.
80
Franklin, heel!
81
Keep up, Lisbon!
82
Franklin!
83
Seriously? Is he dead?
84
Yeah.
85
You know, I should applaud your bravery, but I gotta say, practically speaking, what were you thinking?
86
You could have killed me.
87
I'm sorry.
88
I got mad.
89
I didn't know what I was thinking.

Daily ConversationUniversity StudentsWorking Adults
Who Will Love This Video for English Practice?
This video is a goldmine for intermediate learners ready to level up their conversational skills. The fast-paced, dynamic dialogue—full of quick retorts, urgent commands, and casual banter—mimics real-life interactions, making it perfect for those aiming to sound more natural. If you want to practice following rapid speech or add spontaneity to your own speaking, this is your match. It’s also great for learners curious about "shadowspeak"—the art of mirroring a speaker’s tone and rhythm to build fluency.
Words & Idioms to Add to Your Toolkit
The conversation is packed with standout phrases. Here are a few to steal:
- "Semper Fi": A shortened form of "Semper Fidelis," the Marine Corps motto meaning "always faithful." It’s used here sarcastically, showing how idioms can shift tone.
- "Suck eggs": A playful insult meaning "are worthless." Example: "Your favorite team sucks eggs this season!"
- "Supposition": A formal way to say "guess" or "theory." Useful for sounding precise in discussions.
- "Get down face down": A direct command. Notice how "face down" adds clarity to the instruction—key for urgent communication.
Nailing the Accent with Shadowing Techniques
To improve English pronunciation using this video, try the shadowing technique: pause after short clips and repeat the lines, matching the speaker’s pace, stress, and intonation. Notice how the speaker emphasizes words like "chaotic" (with a sharp "ch" sound) and "dizzy" (short, clipped "i"). The casual banter—like "sissy britches"—has a relaxed rhythm; mimic that to sound less robotic. For "shadowspeak" practice, focus on the back-and-forth: when one character says "He's running!" the response is quick and urgent. Mirroring this flow will help you keep up in real conversations. Don’t worry about perfection—just aim to match the energy. Over time, this will make your speech sound more natural and confident.
Grammar in this video
The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:
| Structure | In the video |
|---|---|
| Passive voice be + past participle — the focus is on what happens, not who does it | was divided · be prepared · has been healed |
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — a past action that still matters now | I've heard · has been healed |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — an action in progress at a moment in the past | were having · was thinking · was aiming |
| Future with “will” will + verb — a decision, promise or prediction | You'll have · I'll try · We'll sort |
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.
