A countdown

00:00:02.167 --> 00:00:04.727

Wait A countdown to what David

00:00:04.837 --> 00:00:06.566

Uh it's like in chess

00:00:06.672 --> 00:00:09.999

First you strategically position your pieces

00:00:09.174 --> 00:00:11.074

then when the timing's right

00:00:11.176 --> 00:00:12.002

you strike

00:00:12.311 --> 00:00:13.676

See

00:00:13.779 --> 00:00:16.509

They're positioning themselves all over the world

00:00:16.615 --> 00:00:19.413

using this one signal to synchronize their efforts

00:00:19.518 --> 00:00:20.917

In approximately six hours

00:00:21.002 --> 00:00:21.952

the signal's going to disappear

00:00:22.998 --> 00:00:23.578

and the countdown's going to be over

00:00:23.689 --> 00:00:25.213

And then what

00:00:27.526 --> 00:00:29.118

Checkmate

00:00:30.329 --> 00:00:31.227

Gasp

00:00:31.033 --> 00:00:32.388

Oh my God

00:00:32.498 --> 00:00:33.692

Oh my God

00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:35.391

I've got to call my brother

00:00:35.501 --> 00:00:36.009

I'd better call my housekeeper

00:00:37.024 --> 00:00:38.401

I gotta call my lawyer

00:00:38.504 --> 00:00:39.903

Eh forget my lawyer

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.025

Un décompte Pour quoi David

00:00:06.013 --> 00:00:09.629

Comme aux échecs on place ses pions stratégiquement

00:00:09.717 --> 00:00:13.088

Ensuite au bon moment on frappe Tu vois

00:00:14.805 --> 00:00:19.467

Ils se placent partout en utilisant un seul signal pour se synchroniser

00:00:19.056 --> 00:00:24.269

Dans environ 6 heures le signal disparaîtra et le décompte sera terminé

00:00:24.356 --> 00:00:26.432

Et ensuite

00:00:27.735 --> 00:00:29.395

Échec et mat

00:00:31.002 --> 00:00:33.823

Oh mon Dieu

00:00:33.907 --> 00:00:35.817

Mon Dieu je dois appeler mon frère

00:00:35.909 --> 00:00:38.745

Et ma gouvernante et mon avocat

00:00:38.829 --> 00:00:40.703

Ah laisse tomber l'avocat

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.253

Ein Count down Wofür David

00:00:06.013 --> 00:00:09.633

Es wie beim Schach Du platzierst deine Figuren strategisch

00:00:09.717 --> 00:00:13.888

Und dann schlägst du zu Verstehst du

00:00:14.805 --> 00:00:19.477

Sie platzieren sich überall und benutzen das Signal zur Synchronisierung

00:00:19.056 --> 00:00:24.273

In circa sechs Stunden verschwindet das Signal und der Count down ist vorbei

00:00:24.356 --> 00:00:26.442

Und was dann

00:00:27.735 --> 00:00:29.403

Schachmatt

00:00:31.002 --> 00:00:33.824

Oh mein Gott

00:00:33.908 --> 00:00:35.826

Ich muss meinen Bruder anrufen

00:00:35.091 --> 00:00:38.746

Und meine Haushälterin und meinen Anwalt

00:00:38.829 --> 00:00:40.706

Nein den Anwalt nicht

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.253

Hitungan mundur Hitungan mundur untuk apa David

00:00:06.013 --> 00:00:09.633

Ini seperti dalam catur Pertama tama kau atur bidakmu dalam posisi strategis

00:00:09.717 --> 00:00:13.888

Lalu saat waktunya tepat kau menyerang Lihat

00:00:14.763 --> 00:00:19.435

Mereka memposisikan diri di seluruh dunia menggunakan satu sinyal untuk menyesuaikan pergerakan mereka

00:00:19.518 --> 00:00:24.231

Dalam waktu sekitar enam jam sinyal menghilang dan penghitung akan berhenti

00:00:24.315 --> 00:00:26.004

Dan kemudian apa

00:00:27.693 --> 00:00:29.403

Skakmat

00:00:31.001 --> 00:00:33.783

Oh Tuhan

00:00:33.866 --> 00:00:35.785

Oh Tuhan aku harus menelepon kakakku

00:00:35.868 --> 00:00:38.704

Sebaiknya ku telepon pembantuku dan juga pengacaraku

00:00:38.829 --> 00:00:40.664

Ah lupakan saja pengacaraku

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.251

Отсчет времени До чего Дэвид

00:00:06.131 --> 00:00:09.063

Это как в шахматах Сначала располагаешь фигуры

00:00:09.718 --> 00:00:13.881

Затем ждешь подходящего момента и наступаешь Понял

00:00:14.806 --> 00:00:19.468

Они расставляют корабли и при помощи сигнала синхронизируют свои действия

00:00:19.561 --> 00:00:24.027

Через 6 часов сигнал исчезнет и отсчет времени закончится

00:00:24.357 --> 00:00:26.433

И что тогда

00:00:27.736 --> 00:00:29.396

Шах и мат

00:00:31.999 --> 00:00:33.824

О боже

00:00:33.908 --> 00:00:35.818

О боже я должен позвонить брату

00:00:35.091 --> 00:00:38.746

Надо позвонить домработнице и юристу

00:00:38.083 --> 00:00:40.704

А к черту юриста

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:07.092

No puedes irte Tienes que llamarles No voy a pedirte permiso Jazmín

00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:10.822

Tengo que reportarme al Toro Dijiste que ibas a estar de vacaciones

00:00:11.256 --> 00:00:12.847

Bueno las cancelaron

00:00:15.247 --> 00:00:17.026

Mira por qué te pones así

00:00:17.999 --> 00:00:18.982

Por qué

00:00:22.667 --> 00:00:24.153

Por eso

00:00:34.317 --> 00:00:40.319

Mira no creo que hayan volado 90 billones de años hasta acá para pelear

00:00:40.355 --> 00:00:43.282

y armar ruido

00:00:44.141 --> 00:00:48.197
