as dumb as it sounds
you got eyes on the outside here there's
one geek still up in the tank but the
others have climbed down and joined the
feeding frenzy where the horse went down
you with me so far so far
okay the street on the other side of the
tank is less crowded if you move now
while they're distracted
you stand a chance you got ammo in that
duffel bag i dropped out there and guns
can i get to it
forget the bag okay it's not an option
what do you have on you
hang on
yeah yeah
i got a beretta with one clip 15 rounds
make them count
jump off the right side of the tank keep
going in that direction there's an alley
up the street maybe
50 yards be there
hey what's your name have you been
listening you're running out of time
[Music]
where are you outside can you see me
right now
yeah i can see you you're surrounded by
walkers
as you can see rick is trapped and can't
go out because he is surrounded by
walkers
the word surrounded is commonly used to
say that you have people on every side
of you
and no possible escape let's see some
examples of it
you brought me to the edge of the city
smart
i uh assume the whole place is
surrounded
walkers is the term used in this series
to refer to the walking dead people that
wander around
looking for other people or animals to
eat
the most common name for them in films
and literature is
zombies listen whoever you are
i don't mind telling you i'm a little
concerned in here
do you know which of these words has the
same meaning as concerned
[Music]
that's right this is a good word to use
when you want to say that you are
feeling worried about something
oh man you should see from over here
you'd be having a major
freakout something major is more
important or bigger than other things of
the same kind
and to freak out is to panic yeah so
what's that supposed to mean
hey chandler don't freak out i'm telling
you something you already know
who else knows anybody
nobody not even your unusually
attractive aunt no
no no no no if she knew she would freak
out
so here he is telling rick that if he
could see his situation from the outside
where he is surrounded by walkers
he would be having a major freak out
that is
he would be filled with fear and stress
as there would seem to be no possible
way out

got any advice for me as you can see
here
rick has absolutely no idea about what
to do next so he is asking for advice
this is a good word to use if you ask
someone for suggestions related to an
appropriate course of action
yeah i'd say make a run for it
the expression make a run for it means
to suddenly start running in order to
escape from somewhere
let's see some examples it activated
when i came in
so it's open now not for long so we go
now
go home we make a run for we get you out
of here don't rush
what the [ __ ] what are we gonna do i
have to make a run boy
so as you can see to leave the vehicle
and run as fast as possible
seems to be rick's only possible escape
that's it make a run for it my voice is
not as dumb as it sounds you got eyes on
the outside here
by saying this phrase glenn is saying
that he will be guiding rick on the
outside
telling him everything he sees in order
to give him directions to help him
survive
there's one geek still up in the tank
but the others have climbed down and
joined the feeding frenzy where the
horse went down
in this series characters usually refer
to the walkers as
geeks and this might be a reference to
the carnival geeks
which was a performance during the
carnival that involved lots of eating
he uses the word frenzy to refer to
their eating behavior
this is when an aggressive group attacks
their prey
violently so as he promised glenn is
telling rick how the situation looks on
the outside
where the walkers seem to be distracted
while feeding
okay the themselves on the other side of
the tank is less crowded
the war vehicle where rick is trapped is
called a tank
glenn is telling him that he should run
towards the less crowded direction
that is the street where there are less
walkers
this expression is used when you want to
say that you have chances of success
or survival let's look at a couple of
examples of it
he needs your flexibility just as you
need his strength
only together do you stand a chance of
stopping dormamma
there are four of them
as i say we may stand a chance wait
if you move now while they're distracted
ammo is short for ammunition which are
bullets gun powder
and other combat supplies for example in
war video games you might run short of
ammo if you don't use your bullets
wisely
in that duffel bag i dropped out there
and guns can i get to it
you would use a duffel bag when you
travel as it allows you to carry many
things in it
rick has his ammo and his guns in a
duffel bag outside the tank
but glenn is telling him that it's
impossible for him to reach it without
getting caught by the walkers
i got a beretta with one clip 15 rounds
beretta is an italian brand of firearms
rick has a beretta gun with him with one
clip
a clip is a device that allows you to
store multiple rounds of ammo together
in order to be able to shoot without
having to reload many times
jump off the right side of the tank keep
going that direction the expression to
make something count
is used when you want to make something
as useful as possible
10 seconds till contact going to target
the cannon first
we won't get too many shots off so you
just make them count
as rick only has one clip which usually
holds no more than 10 bullets
and if he wastes it not making it count
he will not have a way to defend himself
and will probably get killed by the
walkers
it might have caught your attention to
read the word m in the subtitles
it is quite common to read in informal
written english the word
them contracted like this as it's more
similar to the way that natives
pronounce it
they'll be fine day i'm gonna keep an
eye on them
you there's an alley up the street maybe
50 yards
be there an alley is a narrow passageway
between buildings
brick has the opportunity to escape
through an alley that's 50 yards away
from where he is
you might not know what a yard is as
it's a unit of measure used in the
imperial system
its equivalence in the metric system is
approximately 91 centimeters
hey what's your name have you been
listening you're running out of time
[Music]
nice moves there clint eastwood you the
new sheriff
come riding in to clean up the town was
my intention yeah whatever yeehaw
you're still a dumbass
rick thanks
glenn you're welcome
oh no
[Applause]
right side it'll be the fall that kills
us
i'm a glass half full kind of guy
you the one barricaded at the alley
somebody did i guess when the city got
overrun
whoever did it was sinking not many
geeks get through back at the tank why'd
you stick your neck out for me
call it foolish naive hope that if i'm
ever that far up [ __ ] creek
somebody might do the same for me i
guess i'm me even bigger dumb ass than
you

right side it'll be the fall that kills
us
i'm a glass half full kind of guy this
expression is commonly used to refer to
the positive
side of a certain situation as you can
see
in rick and glenn's situation the bright
side is still horrible
but definitely less awful than being
eaten by the walkers
do you know which is another common
expression to refer to this
[Music]
glenn also calls himself a glass half
full kind of guy
which is another way to refer to this in
this phrase we hear a common type of
sound morphing
let's hear it again i'm a glass hair
full kind of guy
you might wonder how natives are able to
speak so fast and this is partially
thanks to connected speech
that is the way that they connect and
link their words together
in english we stress some words and
unstress other words
furthermore when we do this we often
connect the unstressed words
also known as function words to the
stressed words
content words in this sentence the
content words are the following
i'm a glass hair full kind of guy we can
hear them clearly
the rest of the words reduce so i
am and uh morph to
ima and kind and of contracts
to kinder this is very common in
american english
because the of sound tends to contract
to
an a sound let's hear this sentence
again
fast and slow i'm a glass hair full kind
of guy
i'm a glass and a full kind of guy
you the one barricaded the alley a
barricade is an improvised barrier that
prevents people or vehicles
or walkers in this case from getting
through a certain area
somebody did i guess when the city got
overrun if something gets overrun
it means that it was quickly filled with
large numbers
by using this word glenn is saying that
the city was quickly filled by walkers
and the barricade was not enough to
contain them
back at the tank why'd you stick your
neck out for me
do you know the meaning of this phrase
well you can learn
all about it and many more at our
instagram
real life dot english oh foolish naive
hope
that if i'm ever there for up [ __ ] creek
somebody might do the same for me
naive is another word for innocent or
simple-minded
people that don't have much experience
in life are often called this
glenn is saying that he can be called
foolish and naive because he thinks that
another person
would take the same risks that he took
in order to save him
he uses the expression to be up [ __ ]
creek which means to be in an extremely
bad situation
as you can imagine this expression is
quite vulgar so you must be careful with
it
i guess i'm an even bigger dumbass than
you
[Music]
