★ マディ―は、身をかかげめいるルークを目にします
K: 「目にします」は、どういう動詞でしょうか？
C: Well, here, I'd recommend using the verb "see."
C: Well, a pattern we can use here is A sees B doing something.
C: So in this case, Maddie is going to be A, and it'll be "Maddie sees Luke ducking."
★ レジの後ろに
J: Well, "regi" actually comes from English. It's the Japanese short word for "a register" or "a cash register."
J: So in this particular case would be "behind the cash register."
★ 元カノのクレア
C: Here, there are two ways we can do this.
K: All right.
C: We know we are talking about his ex. So, we can either write "his x, (comma) Claire, (comma), or we can reverse the order, and it can be "Claire, (comma) his ex, (comma)."
★ 彼はマディ―に給仕を頼みます
J: Well, we are going to use the word "ask."
K: Uh-huh.
J: The pattern would be "ask someone to do something."
K: All right.
J: And so, in this case, it would be "He asks Maddie to wait on her."
K: Got it.

M: My ex, Clay just walked in.
L: Really?
M: See the man with the dark hair wearing glasses?
L: Yeah. Do you want me to wait on him?
M: Can you? If he asks for me, tell him I stepped out.
L: Why don't you want to talk to him?
M: He's really unpredictable. He might make a scene!
C: Where's my woman?
M: See!?
―――――
K: Wow!
J: And people are asking who that voice belongs to.
C: Yeah. Hmm...
K: Well, tell them I stepped out.
J: We will.

C: And in this case, it's "that Claire said that he was temperamental."
