  1. Episode 1 · A 70% Raise for German SpeakersAt the annual meeting, Mr. Graham announces a 70% raise for anyone who speaks German. Vanessa mocks Clara for only knowing Spanish, while Mia privately presses Clara on why she won't admit she understood. Clara denies it and keeps her skills hidden.
  2. Episode 2 · Two Deliberate Mistakes in ArabicMia tells Clara that President Ethan Hale, known for his temper, has driven out the entire translation team. Clara is handed an Arabic quotation and deliberately leaves two small errors to hide her fluency. Vanessa assigns her fifty pages of Spanish materials and tells her not to attend the upcoming project meeting.
  3. Episode 3 · Refusing Her Parents' Overseas InheritanceClara receives a call from Attorney Wills, who tells her she must sign documents to settle her parents' overseas assets. She again refuses to accept anything, insists everything be donated, and asks the attorney to stop contacting her.
  4. Episode 4 · Dragged Along to Serve CoffeeClara overhears Monday's meeting through the glass wall, learning Vanessa will handle the German negotiation with Haleworth. When the meeting is moved up and Zach is on leave, Vanessa orders Clara to come along tomorrow—only to take notes and serve coffee.
  5. Episode 5 · A Cold President and an Unprepared InterpreterVanessa brings Clara into President Hale's office, instructing her to only take notes and remain respectful. Ethan Hale speaks rapidly and sharply from the start, catching Vanessa off guard, while Clara quietly understands every word.
  6. Episode 6 · Clara Corrects Vanessa's German in PublicEthan Hale grills Vanessa in German over proposal details, and she freezes. Clara speaks up, pointing out that Vanessa has misused German formal address three times and highlighting the policy change that directly affects the bid margin. Ethan's legal director nods slightly as the negotiation teeters on collapse.

Verified subtitle lines and timestamps for this episode:

  1. [00:00] Eight languages. English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Arab, and Italian.
  2. [00:08] Nobody knows that.
  3. [00:10] My father was a diplomat and mother was simultaneous interpreter.
  4. [00:14] Five years ago, they died in a car accident.
  5. [00:17] I've never wanted to show off these skills.
  6. [00:19] I just want to keep my head down and be a small, unassuming translator.
  7. [00:23] Let's welcome Mr. Graham to the stage.
  8. [00:29] Everyone have worked hard over the past year.
  9. [00:31] Thank you for your dedication.
  10. [00:32] In the new year, we will...
  11. [00:34] It's been ten minutes, and I'm down here counting how many times he says thank you while he's giving the speech.
  12. [00:40] Clara, you'd better win the lucky draw later.
  13. [00:43] If you do, dinner's on me.
  14. [00:45] Sure.
  15. [00:46] Why not?
  16. [00:47] That's my everyday life.
  17. [00:49] Mia is my only friend at work.
  18. [00:51] She doesn't know I speak eight languages.
  19. [00:53] But she does know one thing.
  20. [00:55] Mmh.
  21. [00:57] Außerdem habe ich noch eine andere Ankündigung.
  22. [01:00] Jeder hier, der Deutsch spricht, erhält im nächsten Jahr einer 70% Gehorsens-Erhöhung.
  23. [01:06] 70%?
  24. [01:07] My salary would go from 24.000 to 4800.
  25. [01:12] But it has nothing to do with me.
  26. [01:15] I told myself, it has nothing to do with me.
  27. [01:23] Clara, did you understand that?
  28. [01:25] No, I don't speak German.
  29. [01:29] Right, of course.
  30. [01:30] You only have a certificate in Spanish.
  31. [01:32] What could you possibly understand?
  32. [01:35] Poor thing.
  33. [01:38] Vanessa, majoring in German, French, and Spanish, is the head of translator team.
  34. [01:44] She got promoted in just three months and has been riding that high ever since.
  35. [01:51] Anyway, the raise has nothing to do with you.
  36. [01:54] Just keep doing the basic work.
  37. [01:57] Oh, and remember to translate the annual meeting Pressix-Place tonight.
  38. [02:01] I didn't say anything.
  39. [02:02] A 70% raise.
  40. [02:04] The German translation team consists of four people, plus Vanessa.
  41. [02:08] Only five people would get it.
  42. [02:11] What did that have to do with me?
  43. [02:13] Nothing. Really nothing.
  44. [02:17] Clara, stay right there. I'm coming over right now.
  45. [02:29] Clara, why didn't you raise your hand just now?
  46. [02:33] Raise my hand for what?
  47. [02:36] You definitely understood that German, right? 70%?
  48. [02:39] You only make $24,000 a year.
  49. [02:42] After the raise, that's $4,800 a year.
  50. [02:45] No, I didn't get the meaning.
  51. [02:46] I don't speak German.
  52. [02:51] Who are you trying to fool?
  53. [02:52] Your French is already that good.
  54. [02:54] You expect me to believe you don't understand German.
  55. [02:56] Are you kidding me?
  56. [02:59] I really don't understand German.
  57. [03:02] Clara, that crappy place you rent barely have working heating?
  58. [03:08] Sometimes you even can't bring yourself to go when we go out for a drink on Friday.
  59. [03:12] Can't you stand up for yourself for once?
  60. [03:15] Mia caught me reading a French book in the pantry last year.
