1
Aren't you Donna Paulson?
2
I am.
3
And who might you be?
4
David Fox.
5
Fox Commercial Lease.
6
Oh, I know who you are, Mr. Fox.
7
You own the building.
8
Please, call me David.
9
You know, this isn't the only building I own.
10
Hmm.
11
Exactly how many do you own?
12
Thirty-four.
13
Well, David, if you think telling me that you own thirty-four properties is going to impress me, you just might be right.
14
Well, I do love being right.
15
And you know what?
16
I wish I could be doing this all day, but unfortunately, this isn't a social call.
17
You want us to quadruple our security deposit?
18
You took Jessica Pearson's name off the wall, and then you declared you want nothing to do with her.
19
That is a material change in your firm.
20
It could affect your ability to make rent.
21
Look, we did distance ourselves from Jessica Pearson, but we also restructured the firm and were stronger than ever.
22
And if you need me to show you the books to prove it, I'm happy to do that.
23
It's not gonna be necessary, Donna, but, look, I've got this board of directors that I have to contend with, so if you could draft a letter documenting exactly what you just told me,
24
and hand deliver it to my office.
25
I just might be able to keep him at bay.
26
You know, if you wanted me to come to your office, you could have just asked.
27
I thought I just did.
28
Is this a bad time?
29
You know, I don't think it's possible to have a bad time if you're around.
30
Trust me, true words were never spoken.
31
And just to make your day a little bit brighter, I have the letter you needed.
32
Excellent.
33
I don't want you to leave here empty-handed, so I got one for you, too.
34
Here you go.
35
You're kicking us out?
36
I'm giving you 90 days notice.
37
Then I'm kicking you out.
38
That's a violation of our lease.
39
It would be.
40
If you had a lease, it was rendered invalid when you restructured, which, if I'm not mistaken, you just gave me proof of right here.
41
So all that concern about us not being able to pay our rent was just...
42
I believe they call it a ploy.
43
Yeah, and I think we know what they call you.
44
Why are you doing this?
45
You guys have been carrying a below-market lease for years.
46
I saw the new girl on the block get promoted to a job she'd never done before.
47
I took advantage.
48
So all that flirting was just bullst?
49
No, I never said that.
50
This is business.
51
That was fun.
52
Well, I don't find it fun.
53
Because I may be the new girl on the block, but you just picked a fight with the best lawyers in the city.
54
And in case you haven't noticed, they're on the block too.
55
You want to go tell Harvey Specter
56
and Louis Litt their new COO just got served with that suit and cost them their home, you go right ahead.
57
Or you and I can quietly amend the lease.
58
The rent increase is 100% over three years.
59
And no one ever has to know.
60
I've got a present for you.
61
All right, let me get this straight.
62
You're trying to use a statute meant to protect squatters to keep your lease.
63
Not trying.
64
Doing.
65
And that suit's already been filed, so you can either spend more in legal fees than you'll make increasing our rent, or you can drop this whole thing.
66
I gotta admit, this is very impressive.
67
Except for one little thing.
68
What's that?
69
The clause in your lease, which states if the tenant initiates a lawsuit prior to engaging in arbitration, I have the right to terminate your lease within 30 days.
70
We didn't initiate the lawsuit.
71
You did. Did I?
72
That lawsuit was never filed.
73
Oh, you son of a bitch.
74
You have so little respect for me that you would deal in bad faith twice.
75
Hey, look, I did what I had to do, all right?
76
And look, this isn't personal.
77
Donna, I told you I own buildings all over the city, right?
78
I wouldn't be able to do that if I didn't know how to get what I want.
79
And when word gets out that you treat your tenants like this, those buildings aren't gonna be worth sh.
80
Trust me, when you got views like mine from Central Park to Battery Park, people don't care how they're treated.
81
They just want in.
82
As a matter of fact, I might have something for you on the other side of town.
83
I think you guys are gonna love it.
84
Cause now that you've filed this, you're gonna be moving sooner than you thought.
85
Rachel, we need to talk.
86
What did Harvey say?
87
I didn't go to Harvey.
88
Donna, why not?
89
Because he was busy with something else, and I remembered one of the reasons he promoted me in the first place.
90
I don't understand.
91
Rachel, I know people.
92
I know what makes them tick, and I need you to pull another all-nighter and help me make that asshole back the hell off.
93
Okay.
94
So you brought along a friend this time.
95
Oh, she's not just my friend.
96
She's my lawyer.
97
Hmm.
98
Well, I guess you brought her along to withdraw your suit
99
because you finally figured out there's no way to outsmart a man like me.
100
No, she finally figured out what makes a man like you tick.
101
And what makes you tick is being able to say to every woman you meet
102
that you own the best buildings in the cities with the best views because if you can't say that,
103
then people might notice that you're really just an insecure little man who builds buildings to cover up his weaknesses.
104
Get out of my office.
105
Oh, we will.
106
But if we do, those views that you covet, they're going away.
107
What are you talking about?
108
Oh, did you think I just came here to tell you I know what makes you tick?
109
We now control the air rights across from six of your most prominent properties.
110
So instead of their unobstructed views of the park, your top floor tenants will now be looking out at a 40-foot-high box of tampons.
111
What do you want?
112
I think you know what we want.
113
You keep your lease as is.
114
Not quite.
115
We're gonna need you to reimburse the cost of the air rights.
116
And we'll take a 10% haircut on our lease.
117
I'd call you a name right now, but I'm guessing you'd sue me.
118
David, I really don't care what you call me right now, because like you said, this isn't personal.
119
It's just business.
120
Here's our amended lease.
121
David Fox.
122
I'm Harvey Specter.
123
Of, uh, something, something Specter lit.
124
Don't tell me us changing our name's gonna be an issue again.
125
No, it's not.
126
Donna Pauls has sought of that near new lease.
127
Well, Donna has a way of getting what she wants.
128
Speaking of what people want, why don't you tell me why they're here?
129
I need your help.
130
There's a cleaning woman on our floor who can't afford to pay her mother's medical bills.
131
Turns out, technically, she's a facilities manager, which means she's not eligible to make overtime.
132
A maid with a manager's title?
133
I mean, sounds to me like she's being empowered.
134
You and I both know that title is just a way to get around paying what she's earned.
135
I don't know any such thing.
136
Oh, bull .
137
She's your employee.
138
Wrong.
139
I contract all my cleaning services out to another company.
140
A company I don't run.
141
You're gonna tell me that company is anything more than a piece of paper and a P.O box?
142
Why don't you pay them a visit and find out?
143
Listen, David, all I'm asking is do the right thing.
144
Pay her for her work.
145
You know, why don't you reach into your own pocket?
146
Because that's what you're asking me to do.
147
And I do this for her, I gotta do it for everyone.
148
And if you don't do it for her, you will have to do it for everyone.
149
You better watch what you say to me, because in case you forgot, you're still living under my roof.
150
And if you don't back off, I'll take that roof and everything else you have, because you just violated half a dozen laws by threatening a tenant.
151
You want to take me on, you go for it.
152
Because I didn't get where I am by letting people like you push me around.
153
Anna, it's Harvey Specter.
154
Mr. Specter, I didn't expect to hear from you so soon.
155
Does this mean that...
156
I'm afraid it's not going to work.
157
What?
158
I tried talking to them, and there's nothing I can do.
159
You mean you don't want to make a problem for your firm?
160
No. Anna, there's another firm out there I can recommend to you.
161
I can't afford to pay another firm.
162
You wouldn't have to.
163
Look, the guy who used to do cases like this doesn't work here anymore, but he used to work at a clinic, and I'm talking about sitting you up there.
164
I should have known you'd pawn me off.
165
I'm not pawning you off.
166
I promise.
167
I will go down there and make sure one of the two lawyers I know handles this personally.
168
Okay.
169
If you trust this firm, then I trust you.
170
Okay, Harvey, what the hell is going on with that cleaning woman?
171
Robert...
172
You said you weren't gonna pick a fight, and you did, and now our elevators aren't working.
173
You wanna know what's going on?
174
David Fox just retaliated against Anna by firing her, and I'm about to knock his teeth out.
175
You will do no such thing.
176
Relax, Robert.
177
We can handle a clogged toilet or two.
178
Did you hear what I just said?
179
I'm not talking about toilets.
180
The man just shut down our elevators.
181
Harvey, I thought that you were gonna take this thing to the clinic.
182
That's what I did, Donna.
183
But Nathan and Oliver weren't there.
184
There were cases piled high on every desk, and nobody there would care about her the way I needed them to.
185
So I turned around, and I walked right out.
186
I see.
187
How did I get here, Donna?
188
I'm at odds with Robert and Louis
189
and now even you over something two months ago shouldn't have even shown up on my radar.
190
I'll tell you how you got here.
191
And I can't believe I didn't see this the second you started this thing.
192
Harvey, you're missing Mike.
193
Seriously, Harvey, this is great, but...
194
Why didn't you talk to Mike?
195
Because I thought instead of calling and asking for a solution.
196
I'd rather call and tell him a story with a happy ending.
197
And you don't send in the puppy to clean up the dog's mess.
198
Something like that.
199
In that case, you're gonna need this back.
200
No, I'm not, because you're gonna be the one to give it to David Fox.
201
Why me?
202
Because we still need to get him to agree, and we can either do it with a sledgehammer or a velvet glove.
203
I get it.
204
You're saying I'm a sledgehammer.
205
Something like that.
206
Listen, Harvey, if you're gonna send me in there to negotiate this, I need to know that I have carte blanche to do what it takes to close him.
207
I know.
208
You do.
209
Donna Paulson.
210
David Fox.
211
You know, if you're here to harass me about this cleaning lady, then you can just turn right around.
212
I'm here because of this.
213
You're filing a class action lawsuit?
214
We're not.
215
Eastside Legal Clinic is, which means that no matter what you do to us, it's not going away.
216
And if you try to fire anybody else, you'll be getting another one of those, and it won't be for overtime.
217
It'll be for retaliation.
218
You'll be in court for the rest of your life.
219
Why are you here instead of Harvey Spector?
220
Because if Harvey were here, he'd drop that down, walk out, and go to war with you.
221
I, on the other hand, have a compromise. Which is?
222
Give Anna Reed her job back.
223
You start paying those people what they're worth. And?
224
You get free legal services from Harvey Specter himself for the next year.
225
Oh, come on, bull.
226
There's no way he agrees to that.
227
Oh, he'll agree to it all right.
228
So you mean he doesn't already know about it?
229
No, he doesn't.
230
But he gave me the authority to close this thing, and that's what I've determined it's gonna take.
231
Because neither one of you is gonna compromise unless you know the other one is getting shafted.
232
One condition.
233
Nope, this is take it or leave it.
234
You won't even hear my condition.
235
No, I won't, because I have no interest in going to dinner with you to close this deal.
236
So, what's it gonna be?
237
War or win-win?
238
Okay, David, what exactly is it that you want?
239
Because you certainly don't need me to hold your hand while you buy a building.
240
I do if that building's owner is my biggest rival.
241
And because that owner knows what an asshole you are, you need to make sure he doesn't know you're the one doing the buying.
242
See, this is why I'm paying you the big bucks.
243
Oh, wait, I'm not paying you anything.
244
Just so we're clear, you get one of those.
245
Because I may have to represent you, but I don't have to tolerate your mouth.
246
And just so we're clear, this guy's a douche, not an idiot.
247
He's gonna be looking for me to try to buy that building, so I need you to be smart.
248
And that's the second time you brought this up, which makes me wonder if there's something going on here, because hiding a buyer isn't illegal, but it sure as hell can be.
249
The only thing going on here is that John Billups has a piece of candy, and I want to take it from him.
250
All right, what do we have here?
251
Tell you what we have.
252
I got a building.
253
I don't want to sell it, and these two are in here crying to you.
254
You don't have a lawyer?
255
I don't need a goddamn lawyer.
256
We're not crying.
257
We are representing the community.
258
Because that building was built in 1896, and all we're asking for is a TRO until the Landmark Commission can make a decision.
259
Give me a break.
260
They're not representing the community.
261
They're representing David Fox.
262
I did not say he was my client.
263
And even if he did, that doesn't mean this is connected to that.
264
How about the fact that Mr. Fox has been shoveling
265
and my biggest tenant tens of thousands of dollars a month to stay in his lease, so I couldn't kick him out.
266
Is that connected?
267
What?
268
Your Honor, those payments are repayments for an unrelated debt.
269
Oh, .
270
Peter Mento doesn't have two pennies to rub together, much less tens of thousands to loan David Fox.
271
And the details of someone's personal financial arrangements are not your business.
272
That's enough.
273
If you two want to push this up the hill at the Landmark Commission, be my guest.
274
But I see no reason to stop this man from making a living in the meantime.
275
Your restraining order is denied.
276
Okay, what we need to do...
277
How the hell did you find out about those payments?
278
I'll tell you how.
279
You went to Fox behind my back.
280
No, I had your back.
281
You had nothing.
282
I brought you something.
283
Well, that something just blew up in our faces because he's been using those payments to launder money, peddle influence, or God knows what other crime.
284
And that is exactly why I didn't tell you, because Donna told me you don't trust him.
285
You're damn right I don't trust him.
286
Because when a man like that hides money, it's not because he's secretly donating to goodwill.
287
Harvey, he is our client.
288
No, he's not.
289
You still work in the Fox case?
290
I believe Donna told you I was, and Donna's no liar.
291
Why?
292
Because I'm back in.
293
What changed your mind?
294
Fox did.
295
Turns out those payments were because Peter Minto was Fox's mentor.
296
He wasn't laundering anything.
297
He was trying to save that market.
298
So he was basically donating to Goodwill after all.
299
I guess he was.
300
Wait a minute.
301
Goodwill.
302
Public good.
303
What do you got?
304
There's a public good requirement for any project.
305
Yeah, and this one has it covered with the subsidized housing.
306
Because that way, his Chinese investors have to cover it.
307
How do you know that?
308
Because I got a copy of their agreement.
309
And if that good is residential, they take the hit.
310
If it's commercial, Billows does.
311
And Minto's market is a commercial public good.
312
Which means all we need to do is tell those Chinese investors that their trusted partner has been screwing them.
313
And Billows either loses his partners or foots the bill himself, which puts him between a rock and a hard place.
314
And his only way out is to sell to David Fox.
315
Look at that.
316
We make a pretty good team, don't we?
317
Maybe.
318
But the only problem is, it makes this whole project a money loser for Fox. So what?
319
You said he's been subsidizing Minto anyway.
320
Privately.
321
This is in the public eye, which means everyone's gonna think he's either soft or stupid, and I'm telling you, it's that man's worst nightmare.
322
What do you want to do?
323
Can you get to the Chinese?
324
I can.
325
You handle them and I'll handle David Fox.
326
Sounds like a plan.
327
Let me get this straight.
328
You're telling me you can get me the building, but it's gonna cost me more to keep Peter in business than I was paying in the first place.
329
And on top of that, the whole world's gonna know about it because Bill is gonna make sure they know it.
330
Why are you trying to stick it to me even more?
331
I want you to know the cost of this thing before you make a decision.
332
This is bullsh.
333
David.
334
God damn it!
335
You could have done better.
336
And you could have told me the full fking story before I only had two days to stop it. So either.
337
I look like a sucker, or I let the guy who gave me my start go out of business.
338
Helping Peter Minto stay in business doesn't make you a sucker.
339
It does to the world!
340
David, the deal is what it is.
341
If I could make it any better, I would, but I can't.
342
What would you do?
343
As your lawyer, I'd tell you, get your emotions in check.
344
It's a deal and a stupid move, but if I were in your shoes, I'd take it.
345
Take it.
346
You know, I never thought I'd be saying this, but you earned my respect.
347
Thank you.

Что вы узнаете
Этот диалог поможет улучшить произношение английского, а также научит правильно строить разговорные реплики в деловых ситуациях. Вы освоите навык уверенного ответа на манипуляции (например, как защитить свои интересы, когда вас пытаются обмануть) и узнаете, как использовать тон и интонацию для передачи эмоций — от лёгкой флирта до раздражения. Также здесь можно потренировать "shadow speech": повторять за говорящими, чтобы привыкнуть к естественной скорости и ритму разговора.
Слушайте, как звучают эти звуки
В диалоге много примеров связной речи. Обратите внимание на редукции: например, "I am" превращается в "I'm", "you are" — в "you're". Также есть линкинг: "want us to" звучит как "wanna us to", а "could have just asked" — как "coulda just asked". Эти особенности делают речь более естественной, и их важно замечать, чтобы улучшить произношение английского. Слушайте, как говорят "thirty-four" — здесь "th" произносится как мягкий звук, а "four" с ударением на первом слоге.
Говорите, как носитель
Чтобы подражать носителям, обратите внимание на ритм и ударение. В реплике "Well, David, if you think telling me that you own thirty-four properties is going to impress me, you just might be right" ударение падает на "David", "think", "own", "thirty-four", "properties", "impress", "might", "right". Это делает речь динамичной. Также используйте интонацию: в флиртных фразах ("I don't think it's possible to have a bad time if you're around") тон поднимается на конце, а в деловых репликах ("I'm giving you 90 days notice") — падает. Для тренировки используйте shadowing: повторяйте за говорящими сразу после них, пытаясь скопировать не только слова, но и ритм, интонацию и ударение. Это эффективный способ улучшить произношение и чувство языка. На shadowing site вы можете найти больше таких диалогов для практики.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
