K: Carolyn, do you think you can do this five times in one breath?
C: Well, it's hard to say.

K: Jeff, what do you think of your answer?
J: Well, my answer, "It's hurricane season." Um... I believe they did mention this.
K: Uh-huh.
J: And um... yeah, I think this is a pretty good candidate, but we'll have to hear the others. Carolyn, how about yours?

C: Well, No. 2 was "It's hard to tell." And I don't think that's the case.
K: It's not hard to tell.
C: No. What about your answer, Ken?

K: "None of the above." I think Jeff thinks his answer is the correct answer.
J: Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
K: And I second that. So, "None of the above." That's my answer is wrong.
All: So, the right answer is ...
J: No. 1, "It's hurricane season."

J: Congratulations.
C: Hey! Nice work!

C: Yeah, I think in English, it's pretty popular to use the word "because" here to connect those two ideas. So, we don't really need to have two sentences in this case.

C: Oh, yeah!
J: They always do.
K: All right.
C: Good work.
J: They rock!

(You rock! あなたって最高！ They rock! 彼らは最高だよ)

J: Everyone is stoked to see you on Mars, your home planet. And we unanimously nominated you as our guide.
M: You know it's not a good time to go hiking right now.
J: Oh, why is that?
M: We're in the middle of dust storm season.
J: Oh my! How long will it last?
M: It's hard to tell. The Mars Weather Service has warned Martians and other planetary creatures not to participate in outdoor activities.
J: Oh, okay, back to Downton Abbey then.
