Transcript

00:00:00Je suis Clara Bennett, j'ai traduité à Gram Global Trading Co.

00:00:04Je suis ici trois ans et je fais $24,000 par mois.

00:00:11C'est assez ordinaire, non?

00:00:15Mais en fait, je suis étudiante en 8 langues.

00:00:18English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Arab, et Italien.

00:00:26N'importe qui connaît ça.

00:00:28Mon père était un diplôme, et ma mère était une interpreteur.

00:00:32Cinq ans ans, ils ont mort dans un accident.

00:00:35Je n'ai jamais voulu montrer ces skills.

00:00:37Je veux juste garder mon tête et être un petit, unassuming translator.

00:00:41Let's welcome Mr. Gram to the stage.

00:00:46Everyone a travaillé hard over the past year.

00:00:49Thank you for your dedication.

00:00:50In the new year, we will...

00:00:51It's been 10 minutes, and I'm down here counting how many times he says thank you

00:00:55while he's giving the speech.

00:00:58Clara, you'd better win the lucky draw later.

00:01:00If you do, dinner's on me.

00:01:03Sure.

00:01:04Why not?

00:01:05That's my everyday life.

00:01:07Mia is my only friend at work.

00:01:08She doesn't know I speak eight languages.

00:01:11But she does know one thing.

00:01:15He'll see you next time, Lord.

00:01:16Außerdem habe ich noch eine andere Ankündigung.

00:01:18Jeder hier, der Deutsch spricht, erhält im nächsten Jahr einer 70% Gehousens-Erhöhung.

00:01:2470%.

00:01:25My salary would go from 24,000 to 48,00.

00:01:30But it has nothing to do with me.

00:01:33Je me suis dit, ça n'a rien à faire avec moi.

00:01:41Clara, tu comprends ça ?

00:01:43Non, je ne parle pas German.

00:01:46C'est bien, bien sûr.

00:01:48Tu as seulement une certifficate en spanish.

00:01:50Qu'est-ce que tu peux peut-être comprendre ?

00:01:53Poor thing.

00:01:56Vanessa, majoring en German, French et Spanish,

00:01:59est le chef de l'équipe de l'équipe de Translator.

00:02:01Elle a été promulgée en seulement trois mois

00:02:03et a été remoulée en tant qu'est-ce que j'ai depuis.

00:02:09Anyway, le raise n'a rien à faire avec toi.

00:02:12Juste faire le travail de base.

00:02:15Oh, et vous vous souvenez de l'équipe de l'équipe de l'équipe de Prés-Explés

00:02:18ce soir, je n'ai pas dit rien.

00:02:20A 70% raise.

00:02:22La équipe de Translator avec 4 personnes, plus Vanessa.

00:02:26Only 5 personnes seraient.

00:02:27Je ne sais pas si c'est.

00:02:28Ce n'est pas que ça a fait avec moi ?

00:02:31Non, vraiment rien.

00:02:35Clara, stay right là.

00:02:37Je suis venu en maintenant.

00:02:44Je suis venu en maintenant.

00:02:45Clara.

00:02:46Sarah, why didn't you raise your hand just now?

00:02:51Raise my hand for what?

00:02:54You definitely understood that German, right? 70%?

00:02:57You only make $24,000 a year.

00:03:00After the raise, that's $4,800 a year.

00:03:03No, I didn't get the meaning. I don't speak German.

00:03:09Who are you trying to fool? Your French is already that good.

00:03:12You expect me to believe you don't understand German.

00:03:14Are you kidding me?

00:03:17I really don't understand German.

00:03:20Clara, that crappy place you rent barely have working heating?

00:03:26Sometimes you even can't bring yourself to go when we go out for a drink on Friday.

00:03:30Can't you stand up for yourself for once?

00:03:32Nia caught me reading a French book in the pantry last year.

00:03:37I told her I'd studied a little bit French.

00:03:39She's been holding it in for almost a year.

00:03:42I don't want to expose.

00:03:46Oh my God, Clara, what are you afraid of?

00:03:49Fine. Keep pretending. I'm done.

00:03:52But Clara, I'm telling you.

00:03:55You're going to suffer with that kind of personality sooner or later.

00:03:59All right.

00:04:09Good luck.

00:04:22Very brilliant, Mr. Graham.

00:04:25Abbruch, wen schäden wir nächste Woche für das Projekt der Halberth Group?

00:04:30Vanessa, sie spricht am besten Deutsch.

00:04:34Ich habe gehört, dass Präsident Azen von Halworth ziemlich schwierig ist.

00:04:39Letztes Mal hat er das ganze Übersesserkum von Marion aus dem Besprechungsraum hingefrohen.

00:04:44Das sollte kein Problem sein. Vanessa kommt damit klar.

00:04:50Leute, auf NS-Nivelle sollten wir diesmal nicht mitnehmen.

00:04:53Sie könnten das Meeting ruinieren.

00:04:56They didn't know I could understand them.

00:04:58They thought I was just a small translator.

00:05:03But that's only to be expected.

00:05:05I haven't shown what I'm capable of either.

00:05:08Clara, send me the proofread version of last week's contract tomorrow.

00:05:12Yes, Mr. Graham.

00:05:15I placed the proofcheck contract on Daniel Graham's desk the next day.

00:05:20It was a 30,000-word Spanish contract,

00:05:23and I had corrected 47 mistakes in the original translation.

00:05:27The original translator was Vanessa,

00:05:29but my name would never appear on the proofread version.

00:05:32It would only show translation department on the surface.

00:05:36Vanessa never knew her translations had been corrected by me.

00:05:40She thought she was the top.

00:05:44Clara, did you hear?

00:05:46Hear what?

00:05:47Vanessa is going to handle the Haleworth International next week.

00:05:51I heard.

00:05:53Do you know President Ethan Hale of Haleworth?

00:05:57Who?

00:06:00Ethan Hale, 32 years old, President of Haleworth.

00:06:03He ranked 98th on last year's Forbes.

00:06:06They say he's fluent in five languages,

00:06:08but notorious for his bad temper.

00:06:10He even chewed out the entire Meridian's translation team

00:06:13and drove them out of the meeting room.

00:06:15What does that have to do with me?

00:06:17You think Vanessa can handle him?

00:06:21Even if she can't, that's not my business.

00:06:25Clara, seriously.

00:06:26You're way too good at putting up with things.

00:06:28Milla left.

00:06:29She doesn't get it.

00:06:30I'm not putting up with it.

00:06:31I just don't want to get involved.

00:06:33It was an Arabic supplier quotation.

00:06:36Technically, it should have gone to someone on the Arabic group.

00:06:39But the Arabic team is out of the office today,

00:06:41so Jason Pyrrhus casually dumped it on me.

00:06:43Clara, didn't you say you took a little Arabic course in college?

00:06:46Just do a rough translation.

00:06:48Sure.

00:06:49I did tell him I'd taken a little Arabic.

00:06:52But in fact, I lived in Saudi Arabia for two years.

00:06:55Arabic is basically my fourth native language.

00:06:58It took me 15 minutes to finish the translation.

00:07:00I left two tiny mistakes in proposal

00:07:02just to pretend the work of someone

00:07:04who had only taken a little Arabic.

00:07:07Not bad was actually good enough for me.

00:07:12Clara, organize these materials for me.

00:07:15I need them for Haleworth Project next week.

00:07:17This is background materials

00:07:19on Haleworth International Commerce Group Ludley,

00:07:21all in Spanish, about 50 pages.

00:07:23This isn't my job.

00:07:25How is it not?

00:07:26You're in the translation department,

00:07:27and I'm your leader.

00:07:28Is there a problem with me assigning you work?

00:07:31She had been promoted to team leader last month,

00:07:33so of course was at the peak of her arrogance.

00:07:36Fine.

00:07:43Oh, and there's a department meeting tomorrow.

00:07:45We'll be discussing the handover plan

00:07:46for the Haleworth Project.

00:07:48You don't need to attend.

00:07:50I know.

00:07:51You're only responsible for basic proofreading.

00:07:53A major project like this

00:07:54isn't something you get to be part of.

00:07:56I know.

00:08:01I heard everything in the pantry.

00:08:03Who does she think she is talking to you like that?

00:08:05What does she mean by not something you get to be part of?

00:08:07I'm used to it.

00:08:08Can't you just clap back for once?

00:08:10And then what?

00:08:11She's the boss.

00:08:12If you showed everyone what you can really do,

00:08:14what kind of boss would she even be?

00:08:16I don't want to.

00:08:17What exactly are you afraid of, Clara?

00:08:20What am I afraid of?

00:08:22I don't know either.

00:08:23Maybe I'm afraid of being noticed.

00:08:25Afraid that people will dig into my past

00:08:28and will look at me with pity.

00:08:29Or maybe I'm just too tired to care.

00:08:37An annual salary of $24,000.

00:08:40In this city, after rent and utilities,

00:08:43there isn't much left.

00:08:59Hello?

00:09:00Hello.

00:09:01Am I speaking with Miss Clara Bennett?

00:09:02Yes.

00:09:03This is Attorney Wills from Kirkland and Ellis Law Firm.

00:09:06There are some documents regarding the settlement

00:09:07of the overseas assets left by your parents,

00:09:09and we need you to sign in person.

00:09:11I've said this before.

00:09:12I don't want any of it.

00:09:13Donate everything.

00:09:13Ms. Burnett, there is a sum in your parents' account in Zurich.

00:09:16I don't want it.

00:09:18Attorney Wills, thank you, but please stop calling me.

00:09:27The translation department had a meeting on the Monday morning.

00:09:30I wasn't told to attend,

00:09:31but my desk was right next to the meeting room.

00:09:34I could hear every word through that glass wall.

00:09:36Ethan Hale is fluent in German and French.

00:09:38They're also someone who can speak Mandarin and Japanese in his team.

00:09:42This time, we're discussing a supply chain partnership for the Middle East market.

00:09:46Anything involving Arabic will be handled by their side.

00:09:49We only need to cover the German communication.

00:09:51Can you handle that?

00:09:52Of course.

00:09:52Studied in Germany for three years.

00:09:54Business negotiation like this is exactly in my comfort zone.

00:09:57To be fair, Vanessa's German is decent.

00:09:59Daily conversation is indeed a piece of cake for her.

00:10:01But I've reviewed her previous translations.

00:10:04Her business, Jernisch, has one fatal habit.

00:10:05She relies too much on literal translation

00:10:08and often misses the level of formality required in German business correspondence.

00:10:12In everyday conversation, that's not a big deal.

00:10:15But if the person she faced is extremely sensitive to details...

00:10:22Never mind.

00:10:23Not my business.

00:10:31Finished sorting everything?

00:10:33Yes.

00:10:34I made her a summary, classified by project type, cooperation history, and key personal.

00:10:39I also marked the changes in tariff policies and the risk points.

00:10:42All she had to do was glance through it, and she would know exactly what to expect.

00:10:46It'll do.

00:10:52Vanessa?

00:10:54He rarely came down here in person.

00:10:56Hallerith moved the schedule up.

00:10:58Ethan will be here tomorrow afternoon.

00:10:59Are you ready?

00:11:02Moved up?

00:11:03I've gone through all the materials.

00:11:05No problem.

00:11:06Good.

00:11:06Bring someone with you tomorrow for on-site interpretation support.

00:11:10I'll take Zach.

00:11:12His German is decent, too.

00:11:13Zach is still on leave.

00:11:17Clara.

00:11:18You come with me tomorrow.

00:11:21Me?

00:11:21I only speak Spanish.

00:11:24You'll just take notes and serve coffee.

00:11:26I'll handle the professional part.

00:11:29Her?

00:11:31Don't worry, Mr. Graham.

00:11:32She's more than enough as an assistant.

00:11:35I got dragged into Hallworth's business negotiation.

00:11:39As an assistant and a note taker.

00:11:41Someone who can serve coffee at the same time.

00:11:45I sent Mia a message.

00:11:46I will go to Hallworth tomorrow.

00:11:48Vanessa is taking you?

00:11:49Doesn't she always look down on you?

00:11:52As the errand girl.

00:11:54You...

00:11:54You just agreed to that?

00:11:56What else am I supposed to do?

00:11:58Clara!

00:12:12Are you from Graham Global?

00:12:14Yes.

00:12:14I'm Vanessa.

00:12:15Team leader of the translation department.

00:12:18This is my assistant, Clara.

00:12:20Oh, she called me assistant.

00:12:22I didn't correct her.

00:12:25Please wait.

00:12:26President Hale is still in a meeting.

00:12:32Vanessa reapplied her lipstick twice

00:12:34and adjusted her hair three separate times

00:12:37in just these 15 minutes.

00:12:44Clara, when we go in,

00:12:46just sit on the side and take notes.

00:12:48Don't speak unless you're asked.

00:12:49Got it?

00:12:51Got it.

00:12:52Also, when you address Mr. Hale,

00:12:54be formal and respectful.

00:12:55Don't let your eyes wander.

00:12:57People at his level hate unprofessional behavior.

00:13:00Okay.

00:13:00Ms. Reed, President Hale will see you now.

00:13:0932 years old.

00:13:11About 6'1", gray suit, no tie.

00:13:14The top button of his shirt was undone.

00:13:16His face was cold.

00:13:17Not the kind of cold people put on to look cool.

00:13:21He was genuinely cold.

00:13:23Sit.

00:13:25Two other people were sitting next to him.

00:13:28The legal director

00:13:30and a lady who looked very young.

00:13:32A translation device sat in front of her.

00:13:34In dem letzten Verschoß lag,

00:13:36den ihr Vater Militon uns vorgestellt hat,

00:13:38basieren drei Tarifwerte

00:13:39auf den Standards aus dem Jahr 2021.

00:13:41Wir befinden jetzt im Jahr 2024,

00:13:43was soll das bedeuten.

00:13:45He spoke fast.

00:13:46Every word was sharp.

00:13:48She understood him,

00:13:50but she clearly didn't expect him to open like that.

00:13:57I mean...

00:13:58Ich habe auf Deutsch gefragt,

00:13:59also antworten ihn Sie bitte auf Deutsch.

00:14:01Ich will keine Zeit verschwellenle,

00:14:02über einen Dolmister zu sprechen.

00:14:05Dieser Vorschlag war nur ein erster Endstau.

00:14:08Wir werden die Daten aktualisieren.

00:14:11Aktualisieren?

00:14:12Hat Immat in ihrem Team

00:14:13die SUG-Politik von 2024

00:14:15für EU-Einführen in den Nahen Osten studiert?

00:14:18Die Änderungen zu Artikel 3 und Artikel 7

00:14:21beherlösen direkt 15%

00:14:23ihrer Allgabotsmarge.

00:14:24Wussten Sie das?

00:14:26She didn't know.

00:14:27But I did.

00:14:28Because that policy change

00:14:29was mentioned in the background materials.

00:14:32I had specifically marked it in the summary.

00:14:34But Vanessa obviously hadn't read it carefully.

00:14:38D-das muss ich zuerst beferrieren.

00:14:41Haben Sie sich gar nicht vorbereitet,

00:14:42bevor Sie hierher gekommen sind?

00:14:45I...

00:14:47I...

00:14:47Sie haben dreimal die falschen

00:14:49in deutschen Höhlichkeitsformen gebenust.

00:14:50Beim ersten und zweiten Mal

00:14:52habe ich nichts gesagt.

00:14:53Beim dritten Mal...

00:14:54I...

00:14:54Wissen Sie, was die wiederholtete

00:14:56der Wonsung falscher Anschillungformen

00:14:57im Beschäft-Kontext benötet?

00:14:59Das bedeutet, Enddog,

00:15:00dass Sie mich nicht respektieren

00:15:01oder dass Sie nicht kompetent genug sind.

00:15:03Welles von beiden trifft zu.

00:15:05The legal director beside Ethan

00:15:07gave a slight shake of his head.

00:15:09The meaning was obvious.

00:15:12This negotiation was about to fall through.

00:15:15President Hale, es tut mir sehr leid.

00:15:18Wenn das das Nieve von Graham Global ist,

00:15:20werde ich Herr Börchen

00:15:21zu einem anderen Partner zu schecksen.

00:15:26My hands froze above the keyboard.

00:15:28Two voices were speaking in my head.

00:15:31It's none of your concern.

00:15:32You're just here to fetch coffee

00:15:34and serve drinks.

00:15:35This is Graham Global's biggest deal

00:15:37of the year.

00:15:38If we lose it,

00:15:39there'll probably be layoffs

00:15:40by the end of the year.

00:15:41And junior translators like me

00:15:42will be first on the chopping block.

00:15:49President Hale,

00:15:50bitte geben Sie uns noch fünf Minuten.

00:15:55And you are?

00:15:57I'm Clara,

00:15:58junior translator at Graham Global.

00:16:00Junior translator?

00:16:02Yes.

00:16:03The one who always takes notes beside

00:16:05and serves coffee.

00:16:08Five minutes.

00:16:12Artikel 3 erzeit den Schondart

00:16:13für Uhrenschenszeitstänge

00:16:14von 6 auf 8 Ställe,

00:16:15komme 1 Cent.

00:16:17diese beiden Ensern

00:16:18in unseren taktischen Preisspiel

00:16:20um etwa 12 Prozent,

00:16:21nicht um 5 Prozent.

00:16:22Herr Sven,

00:16:22erklärten Sie mir bitte Ihre Rechnung.

00:16:24Da Graham Global

00:16:24über 1,000 in VA befiehlt,

00:16:26das von den Vorherzmannsteken

00:16:27der Freihandlikstem profifiert,

00:16:30der durch die Erdreisung

00:16:31des HS-Könnungs

00:16:32kompensiert.

00:16:34Ethan Hale,

00:16:35legal director,

00:16:35lowered his head

00:16:36and flipped through the files,

00:16:37as if he was checking

00:16:38whether I was right.

00:16:39Where did you learn German?

00:16:41I lived in Berlin

00:16:42for a while.

00:16:43Your honor ethics

00:16:44are very precise.

00:16:45Thank you.

00:16:46And you said

00:16:47you were the junior level?

00:16:48Yes.

00:16:49Your five minutes are up.

00:16:51But I can give you 10 more.

00:16:53on one condition.

00:16:54From here on,

00:16:55you lead the negotiation.

00:17:00She can't!

00:17:01I said she leads.

00:17:03Or you can leave right now.

00:17:05Vanessa,

00:17:06should I take over?

00:17:07Then let's restart

00:17:08from the first part

00:17:09of the proposal.

00:17:10It wasn't because

00:17:11I had prepared in advance.

00:17:12While sorting those 50 pages

00:17:13of materials for Vanessa,

00:17:15I had memorized every word.

00:17:17Plus,

00:17:17I grew up in a diplomatic family.

00:17:19The basics of international trade

00:17:20are as natural to me

00:17:21as breathing.

00:17:32You speak Arabic too?

00:17:35A little.

00:17:35The Japanese Leaf-Sterre

00:17:37is 6% Günder,

00:17:39but the delivery time

00:17:40is stable.

00:17:41How do you decide?

00:17:42The original Japanese

00:17:43Aupsocks-Nummer

00:17:44lies JPK-T0427.

00:17:46I would not be the

00:17:47narrow Aupsock

00:17:48but the length

00:17:49of the risk.

00:17:51The framework works.

00:17:52I'll have my legal team

00:17:53follow up with you

00:17:54on the details.

00:17:57His hand was warm

00:17:58and strong

00:17:59and the grip

00:18:00was just right.

00:18:01Clara, right?

00:18:02Yes.

00:18:03You're wasted

00:18:04in the junior level.

00:18:08You lied to everyone.

00:18:11What?

00:18:12You said you only

00:18:13spoke Spanish.

00:18:19I do mainly work

00:18:20in Spanish.

00:18:21What you did in there today,

00:18:22that's what you call

00:18:23mainly working in Spanish?

00:18:24Your German

00:18:25is better than mine!

00:18:26Where did that Arabic

00:18:28come from?

00:18:28It's not even

00:18:29on your resume!

00:18:31Vanessa,

00:18:32the project was saved,

00:18:33wasn't it?

00:18:34You did this on purpose!

00:18:35You hid your skills

00:18:37just waiting for a chance

00:18:38like this to show off!

00:18:41What do you think

00:18:41will happen just because

00:18:42you impressed

00:18:43Ethan Hall once?

00:18:44When we're back

00:18:45at the company,

00:18:46you're still just

00:18:47that junior translator.

00:18:49Clara,

00:18:49just you wait.

00:18:54Suddenly,

00:18:55I felt a little tired.

00:18:59How did the negotiation go?

00:19:01Did Vanessa crash and burn?

00:19:02The project was saved.

00:19:04How was it saved?

00:19:05Wasn't she...

00:19:05Wait,

00:19:06was it you?

00:19:08I'll tell you

00:19:08when I get back.

00:19:10Clara,

00:19:10you finally made a move!

00:19:14Standing at the exit

00:19:15of the underground garage,

00:19:16I felt the autumn wind

00:19:17blowing in.

00:19:19It was a bit cold.

00:19:20I didn't want to show off.

00:19:23I really didn't.

00:19:24But I didn't want

00:19:25to lose my job either.

00:19:30Mr. Graham,

00:19:31Clara spoke out of turn

00:19:33during the negotiation

00:19:34and completely ignored

00:19:35the company hierarchy.

00:19:37Was the project saved?

00:19:39Yes,

00:19:39but that was...

00:19:40Then that's all that matters.

00:19:41The Halber deal

00:19:42is worth $40 million.

00:19:44If it had fallen through yesterday,

00:19:46the entire translation department

00:19:48could have packed up.

00:19:54One look at her face

00:19:55and I knew this wasn't over.

00:20:00Clara,

00:20:01how good is your German exactly?

00:20:03I can get by.

00:20:04Can get by?

00:20:05I heard you handled

00:20:06the entire negotiation in German

00:20:08without any problem

00:20:09at Halworth

00:20:10and you even used Arabic?

00:20:12My German just everyday level?

00:20:14Do you know if the company

00:20:15hired a multilinguished translator

00:20:17like you,

00:20:17the starting salary

00:20:19would be at least

00:20:20$96,000 a year?

00:20:21I have no issues

00:20:22with my current salary.

00:20:23Fine.

00:20:24Come to the meeting room

00:20:25at 2 this afternoon.

00:20:27We need you involved

00:20:28in the follow-up coordination

00:20:29for the Halworth project.

00:20:33Mr. Pierce!

00:20:35I'm the one in charge

00:20:36of the Halworth project!

00:20:37You'll remain in charge,

00:20:38but Clara will be involved

00:20:39in the coordination.

00:20:39That's Mr. Graham's decision.

00:20:44Happy now, Clara?

00:20:48Vanessa, I just...

00:20:48You just what?

00:20:49You think because you showed off

00:20:51once yesterday,

00:20:51you're on the same level

00:20:52as me now?

00:20:54That's not what I meant.

00:20:55I've been here

00:20:56for seven years.

00:20:57I worked my way up

00:20:59from intern

00:20:59to department leader.

00:21:01And you?

00:21:02A liar

00:21:03who's been hiding everything.

00:21:06Just you wait.

00:21:11Clara,

00:21:12Mr. Hale specifically

00:21:13requested you

00:21:14as the translator

00:21:14for the follow-up coordination.

00:21:16Starting today,

00:21:17you'll be temporarily transferred

00:21:19to the Halworth project team.

00:21:21Okay.

00:21:21But your position

00:21:22will remain junior

00:21:23and salary will stay the same.

00:21:25We'll evaluate it again

00:21:25after the project ends.

00:21:27Got it.

00:21:28Haleworth supply chain project

00:21:29is divided into three stages.

00:21:30The preliminary framework

00:21:31was already discussed yesterday.

00:21:33Next comes the translation

00:21:34of the detailed terms

00:21:35and contract documents.

00:21:36All files will need

00:21:37English, Spanish, German versions.

00:21:38Clara,

00:21:39can you handle

00:21:39all three language versions

00:21:40at the same time?

00:21:42Yes.

00:21:43Three languages?

00:21:44Since she joined this company,

00:21:45she has only ever worked

00:21:46as a Spanish translator.

00:21:47We don't even know

00:21:48her actual German level.

00:21:49What if something goes wrong?

00:21:51Yesterday's negotiation

00:21:52showed exactly

00:21:53what her level is.

00:21:54Any other questions?

00:22:01It took me two hours

00:22:03to finish the English version

00:22:04and another hour and a half

00:22:05to finish the Spanish version.

00:22:14You're translating that fast.

00:22:16Aren't you afraid

00:22:17of making mistakes?

00:22:18Nope.

00:22:19You better pray

00:22:20you don't make any.

00:22:30both the speed

00:22:31and quality

00:22:31exceeded expectations.

00:22:32Clara,

00:22:33what exactly

00:22:34have you been doing

00:22:34for the past three years?

00:22:45Hello?

00:22:45Clara?

00:22:47It was Ethan Hall.

00:22:49This is Ethan Hall

00:22:50from Halworth.

00:22:51Mr. Pyrrhus gave me

00:22:52your number.

00:22:52Mr. Hall,

00:22:53what can I do for you?

00:22:54I read the 62 pages

00:22:55you translated today.

00:22:56Was there any problem?

00:22:58No problem at all.

00:22:59It's the most accurate

00:23:00German business translation

00:23:01I've seen in the past

00:23:02three years.

00:23:03Thank you.

00:23:04You're not someone

00:23:05who belongs

00:23:05in a junior position.

00:23:08That is my current position.

00:23:09I know.

00:23:10That's why I'm curious.

00:23:13Halloworth has an internal

00:23:14meeting tomorrow afternoon.

00:23:15It involves partner

00:23:16selection for the

00:23:17Middle Eastern market.

00:23:18I need an Arabic

00:23:18speaking interpreter there.

00:23:20This should go

00:23:20through the company.

00:23:21I know.

00:23:22But I'm asking you

00:23:23directly.

00:23:23Would you like to come?

00:23:26Okay, I will.

00:23:30Clara,

00:23:31maybe you're going

00:23:32to be exposed

00:23:32after all.

00:23:33I knew this day

00:23:34would come eventually,

00:23:35but I just didn't

00:23:36expect it to come

00:23:37this soon.

00:23:41They were from

00:23:41a construction

00:23:42materials group

00:23:43in the UAE.

00:23:44The man leading

00:23:44the meeting

00:23:45looked about 50,

00:23:46wearing a white robe

00:23:47with a serious expression.

00:23:48A young Arab woman

00:23:49sat beside him

00:23:50should be his interpreter.

00:23:52You're here.

00:23:53Today I may need you

00:23:54to do an interpretation

00:23:54between Arabic and English.

00:23:56Okay.

00:23:56If Vanessa were here,

00:23:58she would probably ask,

00:23:59where did your

00:23:59ablishk even come from?

00:24:01The answer is,

00:24:02I lived in Cairo

00:24:03for a year and a half.

00:24:04During that time,

00:24:04my roommate was even

00:24:05Egyptian diplomat's daughter.

00:24:09Standard procedure.

00:24:10Fifteen minutes passed.

00:24:20I lowered my head

00:24:21and typed

00:24:22as if I were taking notes.

00:24:23Then I turned

00:24:24my laptop slightly

00:24:25so Ethan Hale

00:24:26could see the screen.

00:24:27I had typed

00:24:27one line in English.

00:24:29They said they wanted

00:24:29a price down by 20 cent.

00:24:31If that doesn't work,

00:24:32they'll switch suppliers.

00:24:33Ethan Hale's eyes

00:24:34stayed on the screen

00:24:35for one second.

00:24:36His expression

00:24:37didn't change at all,

00:24:38but in the negotiation

00:24:39that followed,

00:24:39his strategy

00:24:40clearly shifted.

00:24:43Your Arabic is excellent.

00:24:45Not that good.

00:24:47Just the daily level.

00:24:48You heard what he said

00:24:49to his interpreter

00:24:49just now.

00:24:51Then you warned me.

00:24:52I just thought

00:24:52the information

00:24:53might be useful

00:24:53for the negotiation.

00:24:55Without that warning

00:24:56from you,

00:24:56this deal would have cost us

00:24:58at least eight million dollars

00:24:59today.

00:25:00Clara,

00:25:00how many languages

00:25:01do you speak?

00:25:02German, French,

00:25:03Japanese,

00:25:04Korean, Spanish,

00:25:05Arabic and Italian.

00:25:06Eight in total

00:25:07plus English

00:25:08and you're in junior level

00:25:09translator at Graham Global.

00:25:10Think that makes sense?

00:25:11It was my choice.

00:25:12Would you be interested

00:25:13in coming to

00:25:14Hellworth International

00:25:15Commerce Group?

00:25:15I can start you

00:25:16at $400,000 a year

00:25:17if you're willing to head

00:25:18the International Business

00:25:19Department.

00:25:20There's no upper limit.

00:25:22Mr. Hale,

00:25:23thank you for the offer.

00:25:24I'm not planning to change

00:25:25jobs for now.

00:25:25For now?

00:25:26For now.

00:25:27You can change your mind

00:25:28any time.

00:25:29A pure black background.

00:25:30Only one line of text

00:25:31Ethan Hale and a phone number.

00:25:32It didn't even say

00:25:33President of

00:25:34Halloworth International.

00:25:35This kind of card

00:25:36is usually given to people

00:25:38who already need to know

00:25:38who you are.

00:25:46What are you doing?

00:25:49I was passing by.

00:25:50Saw your computer was on.

00:25:52It was off when I left.

00:25:53You went to Hallworth

00:25:54again today?

00:25:54Ethan Hale asked you

00:25:55to go, didn't he?

00:25:55It was needed

00:25:56for the project

00:25:56coordination.

00:25:57What kind of project

00:25:58needs you to interpret Arabic?

00:25:59You never said

00:26:00you were that good at Arabic.

00:26:00What else are you hiding?

00:26:01Vanessa,

00:26:02what did you see

00:26:02on my computer?

00:26:03I didn't see anything.

00:26:07She had opened

00:26:08my personal folder.

00:26:10What was inside?

00:26:11Some translation exercise.

00:26:13Casual translations

00:26:13in French, Japanese,

00:26:15and Korean.

00:26:15Things I did

00:26:16when I was bored.

00:26:16If she saw those...

00:26:18Clara,

00:26:19what exactly did you do

00:26:20at Hallworth today?

00:26:21Vanessa was losing her mind

00:26:22in the office all afternoon.

00:26:23She went through your computer.

00:26:24I know.

00:26:25You know?

00:26:25Why aren't you reporting her?

00:26:27Report what?

00:26:27I don't have proof.

00:26:28You are way too...

00:26:29Forget it.

00:26:30I heard something today.

00:26:31Do you want to know?

00:26:31Go on.

00:26:32There's something going on

00:26:33between Vanessa Reed

00:26:34and Jason Pierce.

00:26:35What do you mean?

00:26:36I handle reimbursement forms

00:26:37in Atom.

00:26:38Over the past six months,

00:26:39Vanessa has gone out alone

00:26:40with Jason Pierce

00:26:40to talk about work

00:26:4117 times.

00:26:42Every single time

00:26:43it was at that hotel

00:26:44on the west side of the city.

00:26:45Think about that.

00:26:46That has nothing to do with me.

00:26:48How does it have

00:26:49nothing to do with you?

00:26:50Jason Persis made

00:26:51Vanessa department leader

00:26:52because of that relationship.

00:26:56The message basically said

00:26:57the company had found

00:26:58that some employees

00:26:59had failed to provide

00:27:00truthful information

00:27:01about their personal skills

00:27:02when they were hired.

00:27:04All employees were required

00:27:05to update their profiles

00:27:06within a week.

00:27:07Anyone found to have

00:27:08concealed or falsified information

00:27:10would be dealt with

00:27:11as a violation

00:27:12of company policy.

00:27:13Of course I knew.

00:27:14When Vanessa went

00:27:15through my computer,

00:27:16she found those

00:27:17multilingual translation exercises.

00:27:19she must have gone

00:27:20to Jason Pierce.

00:27:21The look on her face

00:27:22was completely different

00:27:23from yesterday.

00:27:24It wasn't anger.

00:27:25It was the calmness

00:27:26of someone who thought

00:27:27she had the situation

00:27:28under control.

00:27:28Clara, you saw that email, right?

00:27:31So what?

00:27:32Are you planning

00:27:33to update your profile?

00:27:34I'm still thinking about it.

00:27:36I suggest you do it soon.

00:27:38If they find out

00:27:39you hid something,

00:27:40that'll be a very serious matter.

00:27:42Thank you for the reminder,

00:27:43Vanessa.

00:27:47A pure black background.

00:27:50One line of text.

00:27:53On the back,

00:27:54there was a handwritten line,

00:27:56very small.

00:27:58I hadn't noticed it before.

00:28:01It hadn't come to that yet.

00:28:05There are two things

00:28:06on the agenda today.

00:28:07First,

00:28:08the Haleworth International

00:28:09Commerce Group LTD project.

00:28:12The initial handover

00:28:13has been completed.

00:28:14and Mr. Hale is very

00:28:15satisatisfied with the quality

00:28:16of our translation work.

00:28:18The project bonus

00:28:19will be paid out next month.

00:28:20Second,

00:28:21about the employee profile update.

00:28:24Mr. Graham,

00:28:24I have a question.

00:28:25Go ahead.

00:28:27If an employee

00:28:27deliberately hides

00:28:28their skills

00:28:29and caused the company

00:28:30to make mistakes

00:28:30in irraking human resources,

00:28:32does that count

00:28:32as a violation?

00:28:42Then let me give an example.

00:28:44Say an employee

00:28:45only lists Spanish

00:28:46on her profile,

00:28:46but in fact,

00:28:47she is fluent

00:28:47in multiple languages.

00:28:48The company assigns

00:28:49her position and salary

00:28:50according on the standard

00:28:50for a Spanish translator

00:28:51and she never raises

00:28:52any objection.

00:28:53Over three years,

00:28:54without knowing the truth,

00:28:54the company loses out

00:28:55on a huge amount

00:28:56of usable human resources.

00:28:57This kind of behavior...

00:28:58Enough.

00:29:00Vanessa,

00:29:01get to the point.

00:29:02The person you're talking

00:29:03about is me, right?

00:29:05So what?

00:29:06Yes.

00:29:06I only listed Spanish

00:29:07on my profile

00:29:08because the position

00:29:09I applied for

00:29:09was junior Spanish translator.

00:29:11I have never made a mistake

00:29:12in during the work.

00:29:13As for the other languages...

00:29:15As for the other languages,

00:29:16you hid your ability.

00:29:17You let the company

00:29:17spend high salaries

00:29:18hiring people

00:29:19for the German,

00:29:19French,

00:29:20and Arabic teams

00:29:20when you alone

00:29:21could do all of their jobs.

00:29:22Isn't that damaging

00:29:23the company's interest?

00:29:24If I alone

00:29:24can replace all of them,

00:29:26then where does that leave you?

00:29:27Vanessa,

00:29:28This has nothing

00:29:28to do with my place.

00:29:29It does.

00:29:30Because what you're

00:29:31really worried about

00:29:31isn't the company's interests.

00:29:32It's the fact that you found out

00:29:33I'm more capable than you.

00:29:34And now your position

00:29:35doesn't feel so secure anymore.

00:29:37You.

00:29:37I'll say it again.

00:29:39Not listing on my profile

00:29:41does not mean hiding.

00:29:42The skills section

00:29:43does not say

00:29:43all skills must be listed.

00:29:45I chose to show

00:29:46only the skills required

00:29:47for the job I applied for.

00:29:48That is my right.

00:30:09Fine, then let me ask

00:30:10another question.

00:30:11Mr. Graham,

00:30:11the bonus for the

00:30:12Halewith project

00:30:13is distributed

00:30:13among the team members, right?

00:30:15Yes.

00:30:15Clara was added to the team

00:30:16later on a temporary basis.

00:30:18The part she took in

00:30:19was just translation handover.

00:30:21She wasn't on

00:30:22the original team list.

00:30:23So when the bonus

00:30:24is distributed,

00:30:25she shouldn't receive

00:30:25the full amount.

00:30:26That was a vicious move.

00:30:28She stopped attacking me

00:30:29over the hidden skills issue

00:30:30because she knew

00:30:30she couldn't win that fight.

00:30:32So she switched

00:30:32to money instead.

00:30:34Well,

00:30:34Vanessa does have a point.

00:30:36Clara joined

00:30:37halfway through.

00:30:38Then Hale

00:30:39specifically requested me.

00:30:44Mr. Hale,

00:30:45what brings you here?

00:30:47I came to deliver

00:30:48the contract.

00:30:49I heard your meeting.

00:30:50The door wasn't

00:30:51fully closed.

00:30:52The core negotiation

00:30:53of this project

00:30:54was completed by Clara.

00:30:55On the day we first met,

00:30:56she saved the entire

00:30:56conversation in the

00:30:57final five minutes.

00:30:58During the meeting

00:30:59with the UAE client,

00:31:00she used Arup to win me

00:31:00$8 million in profit margin.

00:31:02How your company

00:31:03disputes bonuses

00:31:04is your business.

00:31:04But I suggest you figure out

00:31:05who really is the key person

00:31:07in this project.

00:31:09One more thing.

00:31:10There is a clause

00:31:11in this contract.

00:31:12From now on,

00:31:13all translation handover work

00:31:14for Crown Wealth

00:31:15will be handled by Clara.

00:31:16If she is no longer

00:31:17at White Global,

00:31:18this contract automatically

00:31:19becomes void.

00:31:20Mr. Hale,

00:31:21you mean,

00:31:21I've made myself very clear.

00:31:23This contract is worth

00:31:24$80 million a year.

00:31:25The handover translator

00:31:27is Clara.

00:31:27If you replace her,

00:31:29the contract is void.

00:31:31Clara.

00:31:32Mr. Graham?

00:31:33Starting today,

00:31:34you are no longer

00:31:35on the junior level.

00:31:36Then,

00:31:37which level I'm in?

00:31:38Deputy Director

00:31:39of the Translation Department.

00:31:41As for your salary,

00:31:42we'll discuss it privately.

00:31:44Mr. Graham!

00:31:45She's only been here

00:31:46for three years!

00:31:47I've been here

00:31:47for seven!

00:31:48Vanessa,

00:31:49sit down.

00:31:51Tu mérites mieux que ça.

00:31:56She actually speaks

00:31:57eight languages?

00:31:57She stayed in the junior level

00:31:58for three years?

00:31:59How has that happened?

00:32:00Didn't you heard

00:32:00Ethan Hall's contract?

00:32:01He specifically asked for her

00:32:03$80 million.

00:32:04Vanessa's face looks amazing.

00:32:05I mean the color.

00:32:08That line in French,

00:32:09you understood it?

00:32:10I did.

00:32:11Then what do you think?

00:32:12I'm thinking about it.

00:32:13Take your time.

00:32:19Clara,

00:32:20let's have a chat.

00:32:22You hid for three years

00:32:24and now everything

00:32:25is out in the open.

00:32:26Do you really think

00:32:27your life here

00:32:28will be easy from now on?

00:32:29Are you threatening me?

00:32:31I'm reminding you.

00:32:32Do you think

00:32:33becoming Deputy Director

00:32:34solves everything?

00:32:35The Translation Department's

00:32:36connections,

00:32:37client relationships,

00:32:38and internal resources

00:32:39are all in my hands.

00:32:41You're a newcomer

00:32:42who just got promoted.

00:32:44You won't be able

00:32:45to handle any of it.

00:32:46What are you trying to say?

00:32:47Give me your position.

00:32:49You can keep working

00:32:50as the handover translator

00:32:52and take your project bonus.

00:32:54I'll manage the department

00:32:55and you handle the business.

00:32:57We both get what we want.

00:32:59What if I don't want to?

00:33:01Then I'll let you know

00:33:03ability isn't the only thing

00:33:04that matters in reality.

00:33:10It tasted awful.

00:33:12Vanessa was right.

00:33:14Ability isn't the only thing

00:33:15that matters.

00:33:16But there is one thing

00:33:17she's wrong.

00:33:18Thinking she was the only one

00:33:20who had the connection.

00:33:23On Monday,

00:33:24something major happened

00:33:25at Graham Global.

00:33:26The company had received

00:33:27a new project,

00:33:28a fashion brand

00:33:29from Lyon, France.

00:33:31It required a full set

00:33:32of French to English

00:33:33brand translation

00:33:34and market localization services.

00:33:37Jason Perry had brought

00:33:38this project back

00:33:39through an old client.

00:33:40The amount was not huge,

00:33:42but it mattered a lot

00:33:43for the company's

00:33:44brand expansion.

00:33:45The problem was

00:33:46one of the two translators

00:33:48on the French team

00:33:48had just resigned last month.

00:33:50The other was

00:33:51on maternity leave.

00:33:53There's no one left

00:33:53on the French team.

00:33:55What are we supposed

00:33:56to do with this project?

00:33:59Clara, what level

00:34:00is your French?

00:34:02It works.

00:34:03What do you mean by that?

00:34:04Can you handle

00:34:05high-end French brand

00:34:06localization?

00:34:07Yes.

00:34:09Good.

00:34:10Then you're taking

00:34:10in this project.

00:34:12The director

00:34:13of the French side

00:34:14personally called

00:34:15Daniel Graham

00:34:16after looked through.

00:34:19Is your translator French?

00:34:21The language feels

00:34:22incredibly authentic.

00:34:23Yes.

00:34:24We have a dedicated

00:34:25French translation team.

00:34:29Clara, the French side

00:34:31is extremely satisfied.

00:34:32They've added

00:34:33another project,

00:34:34the full translation

00:34:34of their product manuals.

00:34:36It's worth

00:34:37three million dollars.

00:34:38Okay.

00:34:39I'll approve

00:34:40your project bonus

00:34:40for this month separately.

00:34:42Thank you,

00:34:42Mr. Graham.

00:34:47Please note,

00:34:48everyone.

00:34:49Project assignments

00:34:50in the translation

00:34:51department

00:34:51should follow

00:34:52departmental procedures.

00:34:53No one should skip

00:34:54the leader

00:34:54and take projects directly.

00:35:01Clara,

00:35:02do you really speak

00:35:03eight languages?

00:35:04Yes.

00:35:05Do you know

00:35:05how rare someone

00:35:06like you is

00:35:07in the translation industry?

00:35:08I know.

00:35:09Then why did you...

00:35:12Forget it.

00:35:13There is something

00:35:13I should tell you.

00:35:14Vanessa has a real

00:35:15problem with you.

00:35:16She has brought it up

00:35:16with me several times already.

00:35:18Yes, I heard.

00:35:19You better be careful.

00:35:20She has certain...

00:35:23connections in the company.

00:35:24Mr. Pierce,

00:35:25about you and Vanessa...

00:35:27What about us?

00:35:28Nothing.

00:35:33Clara,

00:35:33Vanessa and I

00:35:34don't have the kind

00:35:35of relationship

00:35:35you might be thinking of.

00:35:37She got promoted

00:35:37to team lead

00:35:38because she had been here

00:35:39long enough

00:35:40and knew the business well.

00:35:42That's all.

00:35:43I thought of the 17

00:35:44hotel reimbursement claims

00:35:46Mia had mentioned.

00:35:47Human nature

00:35:48really is an interesting thing.

00:35:51The way people

00:35:52looked at me

00:35:53was strange.

00:35:54It wasn't admiration

00:35:55or envy.

00:35:56It was more like...

00:35:58avoidance.

00:35:59Something happened.

00:36:01What happened?

00:36:04Vanessa reported you

00:36:05to Daniel Graham.

00:36:06Reported me for what?

00:36:07She said you privately

00:36:09leaked Graham Global's

00:36:10internal pricing strategy

00:36:11to Haleworth

00:36:12while you were translating

00:36:13for them.

00:36:14That's a false accusation.

00:36:15I know.

00:36:17But she has evidence.

00:36:18What evidence?

00:36:20She said she found a file

00:36:21on your computer.

00:36:22Screenshots of a chat

00:36:23between you

00:36:24and Ethan Hale's

00:36:25assistant,

00:36:25Frank Young.

00:36:26The chat mentions

00:36:27Graham Global's

00:36:28internal pricing.

00:36:29There is no such file

00:36:30on my computer.

00:36:31She says there is.

00:36:32And she already showed it

00:36:33to Daniel Graham.

00:36:34Daniel wants you

00:36:35in his office

00:36:35tomorrow morning

00:36:36to explain yourself.

00:36:39That so-called

00:36:40chat record?

00:36:41It's fake.

00:36:42I sneaked a look at it.

00:36:46The chat time

00:36:46was last Wednesday

00:36:47at 2 p.m.

00:36:48But you were

00:36:49at the department meeting

00:36:50last Wednesday afternoon.

00:36:52Rare one can prove it.

00:36:53Then how did she...

00:36:54She edited the time

00:36:55in the chat.

00:36:56Photoshopped it.

00:36:57But she forgot one thing.

00:36:58There's a battery indicator

00:36:59in the top right corner

00:37:00of the screenshot.

00:37:01That battery display

00:37:02doesn't match

00:37:03your phone model.

00:37:04You use a Samsung.

00:37:06That screenshot

00:37:06is from an iPhone.

00:37:09Mia,

00:37:10I need you to do me

00:37:11a favor.

00:37:11Name it.

00:37:12You're in administration.

00:37:14Can you pull

00:37:14the attendance records

00:37:15and meeting room usage

00:37:17records from last

00:37:18Wednesday afternoon?

00:37:19Yes.

00:37:20Pull them.

00:37:21Also,

00:37:21Vanessa's reimbursement

00:37:22records,

00:37:23the 17 hotel ones,

00:37:24do you have them?

00:37:25I do.

00:37:26Are you finally

00:37:26going to use them?

00:37:27Not to attack her,

00:37:28but to protect myself.

00:37:29If she comes after me,

00:37:31I need Daniel Graham

00:37:32to know her credibility

00:37:32has a problem.

00:37:33Got it.

00:37:41Every file had a timestamp

00:37:43and sending record.

00:37:44My real chat history

00:37:46with Frank Young

00:37:47was all on Teams

00:37:48with server backups.

00:37:50Vanessa could fake screenshots,

00:37:54but she couldn't change

00:37:55server data.

00:38:02I heard you were reported.

00:38:04News travels fast.

00:38:06Frank told me.

00:38:07Do you need help?

00:38:08No.

00:38:09I can handle it myself.

00:38:11Are you sure?

00:38:13Yes.

00:38:14fine.

00:38:15If you can't handle it,

00:38:17just tell me.

00:38:20It won't.

00:38:28Clara,

00:38:30Vanessa reported that

00:38:31you privately leaked

00:38:33our pricing strategy

00:38:34to Halewell

00:38:34while you were translating

00:38:35for them.

00:38:36These screenshots

00:38:37are the evidence

00:38:38she provided.

00:38:38is there anything

00:38:39you want to say?

00:38:40It was exactly

00:38:41as Mia had described.

00:38:42My profile picture,

00:38:44my name,

00:38:44a conversation

00:38:45with Frank Young.

00:38:46The content did involve

00:38:48Graham Global's pricing,

00:38:49but the wording

00:38:50was extremely unnatural,

00:38:51like it had been made up

00:38:52by someone who didn't

00:38:53understand formal

00:38:54business conversation.

00:38:56These screenshots

00:38:57are fake.

00:38:57Of course you would say that.

00:38:59I can prove it.

00:39:02This is my full chat history

00:39:03with Frank Young.

00:39:04It has server backups

00:39:06and timestamps.

00:39:07Please compare them.

00:39:11The times don't match.

00:39:13The screenshots

00:39:13Vanessa provided

00:39:14show that the conversation

00:39:15happened last Wednesday

00:39:16at 2 p.m.

00:39:18But the team's records

00:39:19show that Clara

00:39:20and Frank Young

00:39:21had no conversation

00:39:22at that time.

00:39:23She could have deleted.

00:39:24Teams has server backups.

00:39:25Even if an employee

00:39:26deletes the chat

00:39:27on their end,

00:39:27the server still keeps it.

00:39:28Also,

00:39:29from 2 p.m.

00:39:30to 4 p.m.

00:39:30last Wednesday,

00:39:31I was attending

00:39:32the department meeting

00:39:32in the company.

00:39:33The attendance

00:39:34and meeting room

00:39:35booking records

00:39:36can prove it.

00:39:38One more thing.

00:39:39This screenshot

00:39:40is from an iOS interface.

00:39:42I use Android.

00:39:44Vanessa,

00:39:45your phone is an iPhone,

00:39:45isn't it?

00:39:46That proves nothing.

00:39:47Maybe you changed phones.

00:39:49I've been here

00:39:50for three years.

00:39:51The device-binding records

00:39:53from IT

00:39:54show that I have

00:39:55never used an iPhone.

00:39:58Vanessa,

00:39:59where did these

00:40:00screenshots come from?

00:40:02I found them

00:40:03on her computer.

00:40:04After you went

00:40:05through my computer

00:40:05last week,

00:40:06I reset the password.

00:40:08These screenshots

00:40:09were never on my computer.

00:40:11I...

00:40:12You never saw

00:40:12these screenshots

00:40:13on my computer

00:40:14because they never

00:40:15existed in the first place.

00:40:17You made them yourself.

00:40:19Vanessa,

00:40:20do you have anything

00:40:21else to explain?

00:40:22Mr. Pierce,

00:40:24say something.

00:40:25Vanessa,

00:40:25you went too far

00:40:26this time.

00:40:28Faking evidence

00:40:29to falsely accuse

00:40:30a colleague

00:40:30is a serious violation.

00:40:32Vanessa,

00:40:33your position

00:40:33as the department leader

00:40:34is revoked immediately.

00:40:35Mr. Graham!

00:40:36Also,

00:40:36your year-end performance rating

00:40:37will be downgraded

00:40:38by one level.

00:40:39If anything like this

00:40:39happens again,

00:40:40your employment

00:40:41will be terminated

00:40:41immediately.

00:40:43Clara,

00:40:43are you happy now?

00:40:44Vanessa,

00:40:45from beginning to end,

00:40:46you were the one

00:40:46causing trouble for me.

00:40:48I never went after you first.

00:40:49Because your very existence

00:40:51is a provocation.

00:40:52You speak eight languages

00:40:54and you hid it

00:40:55for three years.

00:40:56You made my seven years

00:40:57of hard work

00:40:58look like a joke.

00:41:02On the surface,

00:41:04no one in the translation

00:41:05department said much,

00:41:06but the group chat

00:41:07had completely blown up.

00:41:09She should have been removed

00:41:10ages ago.

00:41:11Her translation skills

00:41:12were just average.

00:41:13She only got there

00:41:14through connections.

00:41:15You guys didn't know?

00:41:16Every translation

00:41:17she submitted

00:41:18had been corrected

00:41:19by Clara.

00:41:20What?

00:41:21I am serious.

00:41:22I have seen

00:41:23the proof-feeding records.

00:41:24Then how many

00:41:25has Clara corrected

00:41:25over the past three years?

00:41:27A conservative estimate?

00:41:28Over a hundred.

00:41:33Excuse me.

00:41:34Which one of you

00:41:35is Clara?

00:41:36Me.

00:41:37Hello.

00:41:37I am Victoria Hayes,

00:41:39a producer

00:41:39at Harbor Hell Media.

00:41:41We are preparing

00:41:41a large-scale

00:41:42international documentary project

00:41:44and we need

00:41:45a multilingual

00:41:45translation consultant.

00:41:48How did you find me?

00:41:52industry recommendation.

00:41:53The Hale Hoard project

00:41:55and the French brand project

00:41:56you worked on recently

00:41:57have attracted some attention

00:41:58in the field.

00:41:58Harbor Light Media,

00:42:00a top-tier production company.

00:42:02Mrs. Hayes,

00:42:03what kind of project

00:42:03is it exactly?

00:42:04A documentary

00:42:05about the Strait of Jerala

00:42:06and global trade.

00:42:07We need simultaneous

00:42:08interpretation

00:42:09and subtitle proof-feeding

00:42:10across five languages.

00:42:12English,

00:42:13French,

00:42:14Italian,

00:42:14Spanish,

00:42:15and Arabic.

00:42:17We contacted

00:42:18three translation companies

00:42:20but none of them

00:42:21could provide one person

00:42:22who covers all five languages.

00:42:25Then someone told me

00:42:26that Graham Global

00:42:27has a girl

00:42:28who speaks eight languages.

00:42:29Who told you that?

00:42:31Ethan Hale.

00:42:32He is one of the investors

00:42:34in this project.

00:42:35Ethan Hale again.

00:42:37What is the consulting fee

00:42:39for this project?

00:42:39$50,000 a month.

00:42:43The estimated period

00:42:44is three months.

00:42:46$150,000.

00:42:47That is about six years

00:42:49of my salary

00:42:50at Graham Global.

00:42:51If you take it,

00:42:52you will need to travel

00:42:53for two months.

00:42:55The Middle East

00:42:56and Europe.

00:42:58A bank account in Zurich,

00:43:01a property in Munich,

00:43:03and a small apartment

00:43:05in the 16th

00:43:06arrondissement of Paris.

00:43:08The total value

00:43:09was close to $10,000,000.

00:43:11Language was the thing

00:43:13my parents loved

00:43:14most in their lives.

00:43:15My mother used to say,

00:43:16language is the best bridge.

00:43:19My father said,

00:43:20if you can understand

00:43:21a person in their mother tongue,

00:43:23you can understand their heart.

00:43:24They carved the languages

00:43:26of the world

00:43:26into my blood.

00:43:27Then they left.

00:43:28So I hid those languages away,

00:43:30along with my memories of them.

00:43:32Because every time

00:43:33I speak one of those languages,

00:43:35I remember what they looked like

00:43:36when they were by my side

00:43:38teaching it to me.

00:43:39German was in Berlin.

00:43:40My dad taught it to me

00:43:42while taking me for ice cream

00:43:43in front of the Bransbors gate.

00:43:46French was in Paris.

00:43:47My mother read

00:43:49ma poisson to me

00:43:50in the original French

00:43:51by the Sennine.

00:43:52Arabic was in Cairo.

00:43:54The three of us

00:43:55were on a boat

00:43:55on the Nile.

00:43:56My father counted the stars

00:43:58while teaching me

00:43:59how to say,

00:44:03every language

00:44:04was a memory.

00:44:05and I didn't want

00:44:06to open those memories.

00:44:07But I...

00:44:12Has Ms. Hayes

00:44:13from Harbor Life

00:44:13reached out to you?

00:44:14She has.

00:44:16Why did you introduce

00:44:17this to me?

00:44:18Because you need

00:44:19to step out of it.

00:44:20You do not know me.

00:44:23I know your parents

00:44:24were diplomats.

00:44:25I know your background.

00:44:26You investigated me?

00:44:27Before I decide

00:44:28who to work with,

00:44:29I learn about them.

00:44:31Clara,

00:44:32your parents

00:44:33were remarkable people.

00:44:35You do not need

00:44:36to lock yourself

00:44:37in a corner

00:44:37just to escape

00:44:38their shadow.

00:44:39Go take a look

00:44:40at Harbor Life's project.

00:44:41The Strait of Jurada,

00:44:42the bridge between

00:44:43Europe and Africa.

00:44:44Maybe you should

00:44:45see it for yourself.

00:44:47Maybe he was right.

00:44:51Mr. Graham,

00:44:52I need to take

00:44:53two months off.

00:44:56For what?

00:44:57A documentary project

00:44:58wants me as

00:44:59a translation consultant.

00:45:00I need to travel

00:45:01to the Middle East

00:45:02and Europe.

00:45:03Two months?

00:45:04What about

00:45:05Halworth's project?

00:45:06I have already

00:45:07completed all the

00:45:08translation drafts

00:45:09for Halworth's

00:45:09second phase.

00:45:10The third phase

00:45:11will not start

00:45:11until three months

00:45:12later.

00:45:14Are you resigning?

00:45:15I will come back.

00:45:17Fine.

00:45:18I will approve

00:45:19two months for you.

00:45:21Thank you.

00:45:23Vanessa.

00:45:24Vanessa had been

00:45:25transferred to

00:45:26administration as a

00:45:27clerk.

00:45:27The old shine

00:45:28was gone.

00:45:29You are going on

00:45:30a business trip?

00:45:31Mm-hmm.

00:45:31For how long?

00:45:32Two months?

00:45:33You know,

00:45:34when I joined the

00:45:34Graham seven years

00:45:35ago,

00:45:36I only spoke

00:45:37one language,

00:45:37too.

00:45:41Later,

00:45:42I learned French

00:45:43and Spanish

00:45:44while working here.

00:45:45I went from intern

00:45:46to the department

00:45:47leader.

00:45:50I thought I had

00:45:51worked really hard.

00:45:52You did work hard.

00:45:53But without doing

00:45:54anything,

00:45:54you were already

00:45:55above me.

00:45:56Eight languages.

00:45:57What gives you

00:45:58the right?

00:45:59My parents.

00:46:00They paid for it

00:46:01with their lives.

00:46:04That was the last

00:46:05time we spoke

00:46:06in this building.

00:46:07At the airport,

00:46:08I unexpectedly

00:46:09ran into someone.

00:46:10Ethan Hale.

00:46:12He was wearing

00:46:13casual clothes.

00:46:14It was the first

00:46:15time I had ever

00:46:16seen him out

00:46:17of a suit.

00:46:18Clara?

00:46:19What are you

00:46:20doing here?

00:46:21Halivert has

00:46:21business in Dubai.

00:46:23What a coincidence.

00:46:24Yeah.

00:46:25What a coincidence.

00:46:30Business class

00:46:31is pretty empty.

00:46:32Why are you

00:46:33sitting here?

00:46:33I bought an

00:46:34economy ticket.

00:46:37About the inheritance

00:46:38your parents left you.

00:46:40You even know

00:46:40about that?

00:46:41The law firm

00:46:42has worked with us

00:46:43before.

00:46:44Attorney Wills

00:46:44once mentioned

00:46:45a client who

00:46:45refused to inherit

00:46:46an estate.

00:46:47The industry

00:46:48is only so big.

00:46:49So the whole world

00:46:49knows?

00:46:51Not the whole world.

00:46:52Just me caring

00:46:53about it.

00:46:54I turned to look

00:46:55at him,

00:46:55and my heart

00:46:56skipped a beat.

00:46:57The sunlight

00:46:58in Dubai

00:46:58was completely

00:46:59different from

00:47:00back home.

00:47:00Dry.

00:47:01Fierce.

00:47:02Almost as if

00:47:03it could burn

00:47:03straight through

00:47:04your shadow.

00:47:05You are Clara,

00:47:06the one who

00:47:06speaks eight

00:47:07languages?

00:47:08Yes.

00:47:09Let's do a test.

00:47:10Translate a section

00:47:11for me first.

00:47:13Martin handed me

00:47:14an Arabic interview

00:47:15outline.

00:47:15Okay.

00:47:16Architecture

00:47:17boasts highly

00:47:17distinctive features

00:47:18and stands as a

00:47:19precious treasure

00:47:20of Middle Eastern

00:47:20civilizations.

00:47:21Its most iconic

00:47:22design elements

00:47:23are domes and

00:47:24arches.

00:47:25Finally,

00:47:26she is the one.

00:47:27She is better

00:47:28than those three

00:47:29translation companies

00:47:30combined.

00:47:31Martin,

00:47:32she has not even

00:47:33given us a quote yet.

00:47:34No need.

00:47:35It's her.

00:47:36The first stop

00:47:37was the antique

00:47:38market in Old Dubai.

00:47:39The documentary

00:47:40was going to cover

00:47:41how the Strait of Hormas

00:47:42connects global trade.

00:47:44There was a Persian

00:47:45carpet shop here

00:47:46that had been

00:47:46open for 40 years,

00:47:48and the owner

00:47:48was a third generation

00:47:50Iranian merchant.

00:48:07In Casablanca,

00:48:08I interviewed

00:48:09a historian

00:48:10in French.

00:48:11The Strait of Blolotre

00:48:12is not simply

00:48:13a maritime passage

00:48:14but a form

00:48:14of dialogue.

00:48:15People exited

00:48:16of different cultures

00:48:16and diverse cultures

00:48:18are in a Strait.

00:48:19Even if they speak

00:48:20different languages,

00:48:21their aspiration

00:48:22to reach the hearts

00:48:23of the world

00:48:23by the Comars

00:48:23was identical.

00:48:24He said,

00:48:25On the Strait of Gibraltar,

00:48:27shipping and trade

00:48:28are a way

00:48:28of having a dialogue.

00:48:30People may come

00:48:31from different backgrounds

00:48:32and speak different languages

00:48:33but their hearts

00:48:34are connected.

00:48:34When I translated

00:48:35that sentence

00:48:36into English,

00:48:37my voice was

00:48:38a little hossied

00:48:39because my father

00:48:40had said almost

00:48:41the exact same thing.

00:48:43Okay.

00:48:44That night,

00:48:45the team had dinner

00:48:46at the hotel.

00:48:48Clara,

00:48:48Mr. Hale asked

00:48:49whether your work

00:48:50went smoothly today?

00:48:51It went smoothly.

00:48:52No need to worry

00:48:53about me.

00:48:54Mr. Hale asked me

00:48:55to tell you

00:48:56that he is in the office

00:48:56on the 58th floor

00:48:57of this hotel.

00:48:58If you need anything,

00:48:59contact him anytime.

00:49:04Hello?

00:49:07Have you eaten?

00:49:09I am eating now.

00:49:10The food here

00:49:12may not really

00:49:12suit our taste.

00:49:14If you want something else...

00:49:15Mr. Hale,

00:49:16why are you telling me this?

00:49:19Because I care about you.

00:49:22I do not need

00:49:22your concern,

00:49:23thank you.

00:49:24Okay.

00:49:25No more concern.

00:49:26Good night.

00:49:27Over the next two weeks,

00:49:28we went a lot of places.

00:49:30On the flight

00:49:31from Istanbul to Cairo,

00:49:32I received an email.

00:49:34Sender,

00:49:34Vanessa.

00:49:36Subject,

00:49:36no subject.

00:49:37After you left,

00:49:38they laid off

00:49:39the French team

00:49:39and the German team

00:49:40because Daniel Graham

00:49:41said you alone

00:49:42would enough.

00:49:43Seven people lost

00:49:44three jobs

00:49:44because of you.

00:49:45Are you happy now?

00:49:46I looked at the email

00:49:47and deleted it.

00:49:48Almost at the same time,

00:49:49Mia's message came in.

00:49:51Do not believe Vanessa.

00:49:53The French and German teams

00:49:54were cut

00:49:55because they were already

00:49:56at the bottom in performance.

00:49:58It has nothing to do with you.

00:50:00She is just trying

00:50:01to mess with you.

00:50:02I know.

00:50:03Are you okay?

00:50:03I am fine.

00:50:06Cairo,

00:50:07the third stop

00:50:08of the documentary.

00:50:10I lived here for a while.

00:50:12When the plane landed,

00:50:14I looked out

00:50:15at that familiar city

00:50:16and my heart started

00:50:17beating a little faster.

00:50:19In Cairo,

00:50:20the team was filming

00:50:21a section

00:50:21about the history of trade

00:50:23between the Middle East

00:50:24and Europe.

00:50:25They needed

00:50:26Arabic interpretation.

00:50:38He said,

00:50:39there is a private

00:50:40collector in Cairo.

00:50:42The owner of this

00:50:43session was a diplomat.

00:50:45He was lost five years ago.

00:50:47His death

00:50:48of the session

00:50:49as the earth

00:50:49has never been released.

00:50:53My name is Malika Diplomacy?

00:50:55Ben,

00:50:56Michael Bennett.

00:50:58Michael Bennett.

00:51:00That was my father's name.

00:51:04After the interview,

00:51:05I sat alone

00:51:05on the streets of Cairo.

00:51:07I looked up at the sky.

00:51:09It was gray.

00:51:10I still remembered

00:51:11the pistachio flavor

00:51:12ice cream that year.

00:51:19Hello?

00:51:20You arrived in Cairo?

00:51:22Yes.

00:51:23What happened?

00:51:24Your voice sounds off.

00:51:26Nothing.

00:51:27I flew to Cairo

00:51:28this afternoon.

00:51:29If you have time...

00:51:30Why do you always

00:51:31show up wherever I am?

00:51:32Because Victoria

00:51:33has your itinerary.

00:51:34She is running a project

00:51:35I invested in

00:51:36so I have the right

00:51:37to see it.

00:51:37That is called stalking.

00:51:39That is called

00:51:40paying attention.

00:51:44There is a difference.

00:51:46The next afternoon,

00:51:48Ethan Hale

00:51:48went with me

00:51:49to a private warehouse

00:51:50on the outskirts

00:51:51of Cairo.

00:51:52It was not big,

00:51:54but the temperature

00:51:55and humidity

00:51:55were carefully controlled.

00:51:57The kind of place

00:51:58used specifically

00:51:59to store antiques.

00:52:01after the manager

00:52:03opened the door,

00:52:04I saw three full shelves.

00:52:06Every piece

00:52:08had a handwritten tag

00:52:09hanging on it.

00:52:10It was my father's

00:52:11handwriting.

00:52:15An 18th century style

00:52:17Meissen Porcelain vase.

00:52:19Purchased at the Grand Bazaar

00:52:21in Istanbul,

00:52:222008.

00:52:23Clara Bennett.

00:52:26I was eight years old

00:52:28in Istanbul

00:52:28with my dad.

00:52:29He took me

00:52:30to the Grand Bazaar.

00:52:31I kept asking

00:52:31for Turkish ice cream

00:52:32and he said

00:52:33we would go

00:52:33after looking

00:52:34at that little stall.

00:52:35That stall

00:52:36was selling

00:52:36these old porcelain pieces.

00:52:38I did not remember

00:52:39any of it,

00:52:40but my dad did.

00:52:41For three years,

00:52:42I hid everything

00:52:43about them away.

00:52:44The languages,

00:52:45the inheritance,

00:52:46the memories.

00:52:46I thought as long

00:52:47as I did not touch

00:52:48any of it,

00:52:49I could pretend

00:52:50they had never left,

00:52:51but they had always

00:52:52been with me.

00:52:54Your father

00:52:55was an extraordinary man.

00:52:59I know.

00:53:01Then you should become

00:53:02someone extraordinary too

00:53:04instead of hiding yourself

00:53:06in a position

00:53:06far below your level.

00:53:10That night,

00:53:11I called Attorney Wills.

00:53:13Attorney Wills,

00:53:14I will handle

00:53:15the inheritance.

00:53:16Miss Bennett,

00:53:16finally!

00:53:17Donate the Zurich accounts

00:53:18and the properties

00:53:19according to the original plan,

00:53:20but I am keeping

00:53:21the porcelain collection

00:53:22in Cairo.

00:53:22Understood.

00:53:23That is wonderful.

00:53:24I will arrange it right away.

00:53:25One more thing.

00:53:26Go ahead.

00:53:27Did my father leave

00:53:28any letter or document

00:53:29for me?

00:53:30Not a legal document,

00:53:31something personal?

00:53:33Yes.

00:53:33A letter.

00:53:34He noted that it should

00:53:35be given to you

00:53:36when you came

00:53:36to collect the antiques.

00:53:38Send it to me.

00:53:40Attorney Wills

00:53:41sent the letter

00:53:41to my hotel.

00:53:43I sat in my room

00:53:44for ten minutes

00:53:45before finally

00:53:46working up the courage

00:53:47to open the letter.

00:53:49The letter was not long.

00:53:52Clara.

00:53:53When you see this letter,

00:53:54your mother and I

00:53:55should no longer be

00:53:56by your side.

00:53:57Knowing your personality,

00:53:58I guess you will probably

00:53:59run away for a while.

00:54:00You may seal away

00:54:01the memories connected to us,

00:54:03along with all those languages.

00:54:05Maybe it is because

00:54:05every language

00:54:06is tied to us.

00:54:07One sentence in German

00:54:08will remind you

00:54:09of landscape in Berlin.

00:54:10One sentence in Arabic

00:54:11will remind you

00:54:12of the stars in Cairo.

00:54:13But Clara,

00:54:14language is not a chain.

00:54:16Language is wings.

00:54:17Your mother spent

00:54:18her life building bridges.

00:54:20I spent mine planting seeds.

00:54:21You are that bridge and seed.

00:54:23Don't shrink yourself

00:54:24into the dark.

00:54:25You are exceptional.

00:54:26You are smart, gifted.

00:54:27And you should do

00:54:28what you're really good at,

00:54:29trying to plant seeds

00:54:30in your own way.

00:54:31You are our pride.

00:54:32Mom and dad

00:54:33will always love you.

00:54:34There was a water stain

00:54:35on the paper.

00:54:36I did not know

00:54:37whether he left it

00:54:38when he wrote the letter

00:54:39or whether I had just left it.

00:54:40My dad was right.

00:54:41Language is not a chain.

00:54:43It is wings.

00:54:46In Madrid,

00:54:47I interviewed

00:54:48a flamenco dancer

00:54:49in Spanish.

00:54:50Cada idioma

00:54:51tiene su propio ritmo.

00:54:52Una vez que tu cuerpo

00:54:53lo memoriza,

00:54:54nunca lo olvidarás.

00:54:55She says,

00:54:56I wrote that sentence

00:54:57down in my translation notes.

00:54:59The final stop

00:55:00was Venice.

00:55:01Omar,

00:55:01the Arab old bookseller.

00:55:03He had his own

00:55:04antique bookshop

00:55:05in the best spot

00:55:06on the busiest square

00:55:07in Venice.

00:55:07He was in his 60s

00:55:09and had lived in Italy

00:55:10for 30 years.

00:55:11And the story of him

00:55:12moved me the most.

00:55:13I arrived in Italy

00:55:15when I was 25 years old

00:55:15and I didn't know

00:55:16a single word

00:55:17of the local language.

00:55:18I lost my way.

00:55:19I didn't know anything,

00:55:21I didn't know to read

00:55:21and I didn't even

00:55:22ask for indications.

00:55:24I had to style

00:55:25and talk to people

00:55:25at the same time.

00:55:27They thought I was

00:55:28Pascoe.

00:55:29What happened after that?

00:55:30Then I spent 10 years

00:55:31to speak Italian

00:55:32and over 10 years

00:55:33to make sure

00:55:34that everyone

00:55:34in that way

00:55:34called Mr. Omar.

00:55:37The language

00:55:38is not only tradition.

00:55:39It's the way

00:55:40to respect you.

00:55:42Keep this part.

00:55:44Original audio

00:55:44with subtitles.

00:55:46Clara,

00:55:46your translation

00:55:47almost made me cry.

00:55:48In Venice,

00:55:49I completed

00:55:49the final three interviews

00:55:51in Italian.

00:55:52Two months,

00:55:52two continents

00:55:53and eight languages.

00:55:54My dad was right.

00:55:56Language is not a chain.

00:55:59It is wings.

00:56:03The day I came back,

00:56:05it was late December.

00:56:07New York's winter

00:56:08was cold,

00:56:09but the air

00:56:10carried a familiar scent.

00:56:12Clara,

00:56:13the director position

00:56:14in the translation

00:56:15department is open.

00:56:16Mm-hmm.

00:56:18I want you to take it.

00:56:19What is the salary?

00:56:23$200,000.

00:56:25Okay.

00:56:26And just like that,

00:56:27in less than half a year,

00:56:29I went from a junior role

00:56:31to the director

00:56:31of the translation department.

00:56:34On the day I officially

00:56:35took the role,

00:56:36I stood in the meeting room

00:56:38and made a speech

00:56:39to the people

00:56:39in the translation department.

00:56:42I know many of you

00:56:43have questions about me.

00:56:45Why does someone

00:56:46who hid for three years

00:56:47suddenly get to become director?

00:56:49I am not going to explain.

00:56:50From today on,

00:56:51results will do the talking.

00:56:52I will personally proofread

00:56:54everyone's translation drafts.

00:56:56I have only one standard,

00:56:57accuracy.

00:56:58If you cannot do it,

00:56:59I will teach you.

00:57:00If you still cannot do it

00:57:02after that,

00:57:02you will be replaced.

00:57:04That's strict.

00:57:06Translation is not a word game.

00:57:08One wrong number

00:57:09in a trade contract

00:57:10can mean tens of millions

00:57:11in losses.

00:57:13Strictness is the bare minimum.

00:57:17Hello?

00:57:18Director Bennett,

00:57:19congratulations on the promotion.

00:57:20Thank you.

00:57:21$200,000?

00:57:23Mm-hmm.

00:57:23I offered $400,000 before.

00:57:25I know.

00:57:26Still not considering it?

00:57:27Not for now.

00:57:28But thank you for all your help,

00:57:29the offer,

00:57:30the Harborlight Media Project,

00:57:31that day in Cairo.

00:57:32You don't need to thank me.

00:57:33Those weren't favors.

00:57:34Then what were they?

00:57:35Things I wanted to do.

00:57:37Are you free this weekend?

00:57:39For what?

00:57:40Dinner.

00:57:41No work,

00:57:41no projects.

00:57:44Okay.

00:57:47He was driving a very ordinary

00:57:49gray sedan,

00:57:50not the kind of luxury car

00:57:51I had imagined.

00:57:52Your car doesn't really

00:57:53match your status.

00:57:54Cars are for driving,

00:57:55not for showing off.

00:57:56I'm taking you to a Japanese restaurant.

00:57:58It only has eight seats.

00:58:01You're paying?

00:58:03Obviously.

00:58:06This place has the best sashimi

00:58:08in the whole city.

00:58:09How do you know?

00:58:10I've tried every Japanese restaurant

00:58:11in the city.

00:58:14This man.

00:58:16Clara,

00:58:16I'm going to be direct.

00:58:17Since that day in Cairo,

00:58:19or maybe even earlier,

00:58:20since the first time

00:58:20you spoke German

00:58:21at Hellworth International,

00:58:22I...

00:58:22You what?

00:58:23I knew you were someone

00:58:24I didn't want to miss.

00:58:26Right now,

00:58:26you're the only person

00:58:27in my mind.

00:58:29You really are way too...

00:58:31To what?

00:58:32Too direct.

00:58:34You don't like it?

00:58:37I didn't say

00:58:37I didn't like it.

00:58:42That night,

00:58:43he drove me home.

00:58:45Downstairs,

00:58:45he said,

00:58:46I'm flying to South Korea

00:58:47for a business tryst tomorrow.

00:58:50How long?

00:58:51A week.

00:58:53Okay.

00:58:54Will you miss me?

00:58:56No.

00:59:00Liar.

00:59:02Maybe a little.

00:59:04A little.

00:59:11I watched his taillights disappear.

00:59:15Over the next three months,

00:59:17many things happened at once.

00:59:19The Hellworth International Project

00:59:22successfully completed

00:59:23its third phase,

00:59:24and Graham Global

00:59:25brought in nearly

00:59:26$80 million in revenue from it.

00:59:28When Daniel Graham

00:59:29reviewed the monthly report,

00:59:31he said to Jason Pierce,

00:59:34We should have put Clara

00:59:35on it from the start.

00:59:41After Vanessa resigned

00:59:42from Graham Global,

00:59:43she became a director

00:59:44at a small translation company.

00:59:46Three months later,

00:59:47that company faced

00:59:48a massive compensation claim

00:59:50because of a major

00:59:50translation mistake.

00:59:52A German contract

00:59:53had its tariff clauses

00:59:54mistranslated,

00:59:55causing the client

00:59:56to lose $20 million.

00:59:57That translation

00:59:58was done by

00:59:59Vanessa Reed herself.

01:00:00Her problem

01:00:01with German honorophies

01:00:03had finally been exposed

01:00:04on a bigger stage.

01:00:05When the news

01:00:06reached Graham Global,

01:00:07some people started

01:00:08mocking her

01:00:09in the group chat.

01:00:10I only said one thing.

01:00:11Stop talking about it.

01:00:14Everyone has to take

01:00:15responsibility

01:00:16for their own choices.

01:00:24Hello?

01:00:25Clara?

01:00:26It's Uncle George,

01:00:27your father's old colleague.

01:00:30Uncle George?

01:00:31I saw you on TV.

01:00:32Translation consultant.

01:00:33Five languages.

01:00:35Clara,

01:00:35your parents must be

01:00:36so proud of you in heaven.

01:00:37Uncle George,

01:00:38how did you see?

01:00:39You look exactly like Michael.

01:00:41And you're Arabic.

01:00:42That Cairo accent

01:00:44of your father's,

01:00:44I recognized it

01:00:45the moment I heard it.

01:00:47Clara,

01:00:47before your father

01:00:48passed away,

01:00:49he said something to me.

01:00:50What did he say?

01:00:52Clara will become

01:00:53a better bridge

01:00:54than I ever was.

01:00:55That night,

01:00:56Ethan Hale came back

01:00:58from South Korea

01:00:58and went straight

01:00:59to my building.

01:01:01Come out.

01:01:02For what?

01:01:04Want to take a walk

01:01:04with you.

01:01:06The street was cold

01:01:07and the streetlights

01:01:08stretched our shadows

01:01:09long across the pavement.

01:01:12I watched the documentary.

01:01:14How was it?

01:01:15Not good enough

01:01:16for your translation.

01:01:17The director was average.

01:01:19Don't say that

01:01:19about Martin.

01:01:20But your parts

01:01:21were excellent.

01:01:22You weren't just

01:01:22translating in the interview,

01:01:23you were carrying

01:01:24the emotion across.

01:01:26My father once said

01:01:27if you understand

01:01:28someone's mother tongue,

01:01:29you can understand

01:01:29their heart.

01:01:31You did that.

01:01:34We walked for a long time

01:01:35until we reached a river.

01:01:37Clara.

01:01:37Yeah?

01:01:38Hal Wild is setting up

01:01:39an international

01:01:40cultural exchange

01:01:40department next year.

01:01:41It will focus

01:01:42on cross-border

01:01:42cultural projects,

01:01:43documentaries,

01:01:44publishing exhibitions,

01:01:45forums.

01:01:46I need someone to lead it.

01:01:47You're trying to

01:01:48poach me again?

01:01:49I'm not poaching you.

01:01:50I'm building a position

01:01:50for you.

01:01:51What do you mean?

01:01:52You're not meant

01:01:53to be just a translator.

01:01:55Translation is a tool

01:01:56and you should use

01:01:57that tool to do

01:01:57something bigger.

01:01:59Your father's

01:02:00porcelain collection

01:02:00could become an exhibition

01:02:01about the history

01:02:02of global trade.

01:02:04Use your eight languages

01:02:05to tell that story

01:02:06to the world.

01:02:06What's the salary?

01:02:08Name your price.

01:02:09You don't think

01:02:10I'm taking advantage of you?

01:02:11Then let me take

01:02:12advantage of you.

01:02:13What?

01:02:14Be my girlfriend.

01:02:15No salary needed.

01:02:16Ethan!

01:02:16I'm joking.

01:02:17One million dollars a year

01:02:18plus project dividends

01:02:19but the girlfriend part

01:02:20is serious too.

01:02:21Streetlight fell across his face

01:02:22softening the sharp

01:02:23cold lines he usually carried.

01:02:27Two days later

01:02:28I gave him my answer.

01:02:30I said yes to both.

01:02:31Daniel Graham

01:02:32personally walked me

01:02:33to the entrance.

01:02:34Clara, you are the most

01:02:35underestimated employee

01:02:36in Graham Global's history.

01:02:38Mr. Graham,

01:02:38you also gave me

01:02:39the opportunity.

01:02:40You earned that

01:02:40opportunity yourself.

01:02:43Speaking of which,

01:02:44what I said in German

01:02:45at the annual meeting

01:02:46The 70% raise?

01:02:48You understood it

01:02:49back then, didn't you?

01:02:50I did.

01:02:52Then why didn't you?

01:02:53Forget it.

01:02:54I wish you all the best.

01:02:56Thank you.

01:02:57Three years.

01:02:58A $24,000 in salary.

01:03:00A junior level position.

01:03:02I had repaid what needed

01:03:04to be repaid.

01:03:05It was time to start over.

01:03:11Hale Wharton's

01:03:12International Cultural

01:03:13Exchange Department

01:03:14was officially established.

01:03:16I became its first director.

01:03:18The first project

01:03:19is an international

01:03:20touring exhibition.

01:03:22The core exhibits

01:03:23are the 40-plus antiques

01:03:24my father collected

01:03:25from around the world.

01:03:26The exhibition will open

01:03:28simultaneously in five cities.

01:03:29Berlin, Cairo,

01:03:31Istanbul, Paris,

01:03:33and New York.

01:03:34I'll personally translate

01:03:36the narration for each city

01:03:37into the local language.

01:03:38On opening day,

01:03:39more than 300 people

01:03:41came to the New York venue.

01:03:42Uncle George stood

01:03:44in the exhibition hall,

01:03:45looking at my father's

01:03:46handwritten labels

01:03:47on the porcelain pieces,

01:03:48tears streaming down his face.

01:03:51Michael,

01:03:52your daughter made it.

01:03:54Clara,

01:03:55how about turning

01:03:55this exhibition

01:03:56into a second season

01:03:57of the documentary?

01:03:59We can talk about it.

01:04:02I told you,

01:04:03you were never

01:04:04just a translator.

01:04:06Ethan Hale stood

01:04:07in the corner

01:04:08of the exhibition hall,

01:04:09staying away from the front.

01:04:11He was wearing

01:04:12a black suit,

01:04:13hands in my pockets,

01:04:14watching me give interviews

01:04:15under the spotlight,

01:04:16that look in his eye.

01:04:19You are someone

01:04:20I didn't want to miss.

01:04:24Ms. Bennett,

01:04:26you are fluent

01:04:26in eight languages,

01:04:27but I heard you spent

01:04:27three years

01:04:28as a junior translator

01:04:29at a trading company,

01:04:30making only $24,000 a year.

01:04:33Yes.

01:04:34Why did you hide

01:04:35your abilities?

01:04:38Because I was running away.

01:04:40Every language

01:04:41was tied to memories

01:04:42of my parents.

01:04:44I thought if I hid them away,

01:04:46it would stop hurting.

01:04:50But later I realized

01:04:51that languages

01:04:52do not disappear

01:04:53just because you refuse

01:04:54to speak them.

01:04:55They stay in your blood,

01:04:56waiting for you to speak.

01:04:58What finally made you

01:04:59decide to speak up?

01:05:00A letter.

01:05:02My father wrote it.

01:05:04He said if I have the ability

01:05:05to make a difference,

01:05:06I should use it.

01:05:08On the second day

01:05:09of the exhibition,

01:05:10someone unexpected

01:05:11showed up.

01:05:14Vanessa.

01:05:16What are you doing here?

01:05:17I saw it on the news.

01:05:19Your father collected these?

01:05:21Yes.

01:05:23They are beautiful.

01:05:26Clara,

01:05:26I owe you an apology.

01:05:28You do not have...

01:05:29Let me speak.

01:05:31I was jealous of you.

01:05:32I had been jealous

01:05:33since the first time

01:05:34you opened your mouth

01:05:35and spoke German.

01:05:36It took me seven years

01:05:37to climb up to Team Leader,

01:05:38but you were already above me

01:05:39without even trying.

01:05:39I could not accept that.

01:05:41So you chose to frame me.

01:05:43Yes.

01:05:44And then I paid the price.

01:05:45After I left Graham Global,

01:05:47that German contract

01:05:48at the translation company,

01:05:49you heard about it, right?

01:05:50I did.

01:05:50Because you used to correct my work,

01:05:52I never knew

01:05:52what my real level was.

01:05:53Once you were not there anymore,

01:05:55I finally realized...

01:05:56Vanessa,

01:05:57your hard work was real.

01:05:58Those seven years of German

01:05:59were not wasted either.

01:06:00You just chose the wrong direction

01:06:02at certain moments.

01:06:03You do not hate me?

01:06:04No.

01:06:05The forged screenshots

01:06:06are in the past now.

01:06:08You really are different

01:06:09from before.

01:06:10Back then,

01:06:11I could not even face myself.

01:06:13The exhibition is wonderful.

01:06:14Your father must be very happy.

01:06:19The exhibition ran for two months

01:06:21across five cities

01:06:22with more than

01:06:23120,000 visitors in total.

01:06:34After the closing ceremony,

01:06:36Ethan Hole found me

01:06:37on the hotel terrace.

01:06:39Tired?

01:06:41A little.

01:06:42Five cities,

01:06:43two months.

01:06:44You handled all the narration

01:06:46and translation work

01:06:47across every language

01:06:48by yourself.

01:06:50I am used to it.

01:06:52Do not get used to

01:06:53carrying everything alone.

01:07:02This is not a proposal,

01:07:03so don't be nervous.

01:07:05I breathed a sigh of relief

01:07:06and felt a little

01:07:07to point at the same time.

01:07:08It is custom made

01:07:09because you said

01:07:10your father once told you

01:07:11that you were the bridge.

01:07:17This?

01:07:17There is a line

01:07:18engraved on the bridge.

01:07:20It has the word bridge

01:07:22engraved in nine languages.

01:07:25The ninth language

01:07:26is Russian.

01:07:27I studied for three months

01:07:29just to learn one word.

01:07:30The Cairo night wind

01:07:31swept across the terrace.

01:07:32In the distance,

01:07:34the banks of the Nile

01:07:35were bright with lights.

01:07:37Ethan Hole,

01:07:38you really are.

01:07:40What?

01:07:42Too good at this.

01:07:44Only with you.

01:07:51Five years later,

01:07:53Halevin's International

01:07:54Cultural Exchange Department

01:07:56had become

01:07:56an industry bandmark.

01:07:58It ran more than

01:07:5920 cross-spree cultural projects

01:08:01every year,

01:08:01with revenue

01:08:02exceeding 200 million.

01:08:04Revenue is up

01:08:04another 30% this year.

01:08:06Mm-hmm.

01:08:09Your salary should be

01:08:10adjusted this year.

01:08:11To how much?

01:08:13You tell me.

01:08:14One dollar.

01:08:15Seriously?

01:08:17Put the rest

01:08:18into a scholarship

01:08:19to support young people

01:08:20studying languages.

01:08:21Name it after my parents.

01:08:23The Michael Bennett

01:08:24and Evelyn Chen

01:08:24Language Scholarship.

01:08:26How do you know

01:08:27my mother's name?

01:08:28I am your husband.

01:08:30How could I not

01:08:31know your mother's name?

01:08:32Outside the window

01:08:33was the skyline

01:08:34of the whole city.

01:08:38It was no longer

01:08:39that rental apartment

01:08:40with the broken heating.

01:08:41But sometimes,

01:08:42I still think of

01:08:43that window

01:08:44and the nights

01:08:45when I crouched there

01:08:46eating soup.

01:08:47Back then,

01:08:48I was fluent

01:08:48in eight languages,

01:08:49made $24,000 a year,

01:08:51and rejected

01:08:52a $10 million inheritance.

01:08:53I hid myself

01:08:54in the deepest corner,

01:08:55thinking that as long

01:08:56as I stayed silent,

01:08:57it would not hurt.

01:08:58In his letter,

01:08:59my father wrote,

01:09:00Be brave enough

01:09:01to be yourself.

01:09:02It took me a long time

01:09:04to understand that.

01:09:07But luckily,

01:09:08I did it.

01:09:10I did it.

01:09:12I did it.

01:09:12I wanted to see it.

01:09:12I did it.
