1
It may seem rather bizarre, but yes, yes, Toads, we are.
2
My name is Groke, leader of these Toads.
3
You were trying to steal the tower from us.
4
No, this is our tower.
5
Our tower it'd be.
6
We lived here first.
7
We are the rightful owners, you see.
8
Yes, yes, before it was the Titans Tower, it was once the Toad Tower.
9
For years, we lived a happy and peaceful life.
10
Whoa, the T doesn't stand for Titans, it stands for Toads?
11
Whoa!
12
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
13
You've been living here the whole time we have - Yes, yes, it is true.
14
We've been trying to get rid of you this whole time, too.
15
Remember the time the TV stopped working?
16
That was us.
17
Remember the time the couch fell apart?
18
That was us.
19
Remember the time the elevator broke down? That was us.
20
All of it was caused by us.
21
For eight years, we've tried to get you to leave the tower.
22
Well, it's time for you to go.
23
This might have been your tower once, but it's ours now.
24
We have the deed to prove it.
25
Hey!
26
You think it's yours, and that's where you're wrong.
27
Listen closely, Titans, as I sing you this song.
28
The time has come, I do believe.
29
You've had your fun, now kindly leave.
30
Go pack your bags, walk out the door.
31
You do not live here anymore.
32
A home in the shape of a capital T is a home for a toad, I do decree.
33
Not a place for teens with the likes of you.
34
So I kindly ask of you to show.
35
Be gone, go now, don't ever come back, or else we'll have to attack!
36
I'd like to see you try.
37
Ain't no Toad's gonna kick us out of our tower!
38
Oh!
39
My little Toady heart cannot handle such violence.
40
Oh, I think it's the big one.
41
Here I come, big burrow in the sky.
42
I think we have hurt him without landing the single blue.
43
I feel kinda bad now.
44
Goodbye.
45
Ah, poor little guy.
46
Do you need medical attention or something?
47
Oh, I appreciate your concern, but I'd really just like some space during this difficult time.
48
We completely understand.
49
Come on, guys.
50
Let's step outside.
51
And please, take your bags.
52
I sure hope the little guy pulls through.
53
Well, what is wrong with us picking on a helpless little toad?

About This Lesson

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.
