This is delicious. Thank you so much for having us.
Your peas really make the meal.

Let's call it a group effort. Rebecca, by the way, what did you do to this tofu?
Nothing. That's the beauty. We let the food speak for itself.
So, Ben, what do you do?
I'll let you guess.
Hand model?
Painter?
Commercial painter. Running rollers 14 hours a day is a grind, but it pays the bills for now.
grind つまらない仕事
Maybe Ben can look at your kitchen after the renovation's done.
Oh, that's not necessary.
Yeah, don't want to start using you for your job. I hate it when neighbors do that.
Damn straight.
To good neighbors.
To good neighbors.
Cheers.
So, Rebecca, what do you do?
I'm a dancer.
Mm. A dancer? Broadway?
Way off Broadway. I'm thinking about retiring, looking for a change.
How about you, Peter?
Me? Oh, I'm boring. I want to talk more about dancing.
Come on. Now you got me curious.
Really, it's -- it's not that interesting.
Nice teeth. Good smile. Orthodontist.
Orthodontist 歯科矯正医
No.
No tan. I'm guessing office job.
Honey, come on. Give them a hint.
I like Vikings.
Vikings?
Excuse me. Um, where's your restroom?
We're doing some work on the ground floor, so all the way upstairs, third floor.
So, Vikings.
Yeah.
Pillage and plunder.
Pillage 強奪 plunder 略奪
Yeah, you know those long ships with the dragon heads? Love 'em.
I know. You're a professor.
Of Nordic History.
No, but close.
Ben, did you hear that?
Yeah.
House still settling?
Or a rat. You know they outnumber New Yorkers 10 to 1?
outnumber 数で勝る
I've heard that.
I'll go check.
I don't think that's a surrender flag.
All right, stay here, Moz. I need to save Elizabeth.
Elizabeth's been gone quite a while.
She's probably just checking her makeup. So, she's the one who tries to get you to eat healthy.
You got me. I -- I'm more of a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy.
Ben used to be.
No rats.
Could be a chipmunk. We had one. Kept stealing my dog's kibble. I found tiny footprints right by Satchmo's bowl, so I stayed up one night. Caught the thief with his cheeks filled. Ah, you revel in the small victories. I'm gonna check on my wife.
chipmunk シマリス kibble 食べ物 revel 喜ぶ
Elizabeth, I can't get through these bars. You're gonna have to pick the door lock yourself.
I can't pick a lock!
It looks like a Birmingham, okay? It's perfect for a beginner. Can I see the pick set?
Yes.
Okay. Use that hook -- the second one from the left and the little L-shaped tension wrench.
El?
All right, now, keep the pressure on the wrench, okay?
Neal, I don't think I can do this.
Just focus on the tip of the pick. Think of it as an extension of your hand.
tip 先端
I feel the pins.
Good. Good. Now tiny, little upward motions. You'll feel the pins lock into place.
upward 上向き
I got it.
See?
Hey, El.
Hi, Neal.
Hi.
What are they doing up there?
Can somebody explain to me why my wife is holding a government Elite III lock-pick set?
Honey, it's Ben's. This is the reason why we're here. I wanted you to see this.
Peter, there is no legal way for him to be in possession of an Elite --
Don't! Don't tell me about legality. Be at my house when I get there. Let's go. I've suddenly lost my appetite.
Everything all right?
No. Elizabeth's not feeling well. She's been fighting something.
Oh, no. You didn't get any pie. Fresh rhubarb.
Ooh, save me a piece.
Well, thank you for a lovely dinner.
Start at the beginning.
Okay. I invited Mozzie over to listen to the scanner. We heard the same men planning something for tomorrow.
One of those voices was Ben, who was across the street with a gun.
A gun?
We think it was a gun.
Or a Tony Award.
You see a hypothetical gun, then decide to call in the cavalry.
El wanted to make sure she wasn't crying wolf.
crying wolf オオカミ少年
I was embarrassed about what happened earlier.
Oh, yeah, well, I know the feeling. My wife recently used me as a patsy.
patsy 騙されやすい人
Yeah, and operation dinner roll was a success.
Operation what?
You saw the Elite III.
We thought if you saw the lock picks, you'd want to investigate.
Investigate what?
There was a duffel bag.
I-I found the duffel bag. It had a phone company uniform inside.
A phone company uniform?
And some repair equipment.
The phones went out in a building on 47th and Park today.
Some security systems are connected to phone lines.
See? There is something. Vindication is thine, Mrs.Suit.
Vindication 正当性の主張 thine 汝のもの
Will you look into Ben?
Returning the surveillance gear.
Well, because of this, my C.I. spent an evening teaching my wife the finer points of lock-picking and B&E.
I heard. He came in early to follow up with the phone company.
Atoning. Good. Have we run Ben Ryan through indices?
Atone 罪滅ぼし
I did. It's not good. Ben served 4 years at Five Points correctional facility for possession of stolen property.
correctional 処罰するための
Even when Neal's not around, I end up eating dinner with grand larcenists. Only 4 years for armed robbery?
larcenist 窃盗犯
He was caught with some of the haul, but they couldn't prove he pulled the job.
haul 盗品
Says he had a partner.
Yep. And he still does. That building where the lines went down does have a phone-based alarm system. Overriding it is a two-man job. You can cut the trunk line as long as a bypass line is connected simultaneously.
Overriding 避けられない trunk line 基幹回線 simultaneously 同時に
They circumvented the alarm but didn't steal anything.
circumvent 回避する
I think it was a dry run.
Making sure it'll work for whatever score they have planned. Diana, track down a list of known associates. Maybe we'll get lucky and find his partner.
track down 見つけ出す
Okay.
El was right.
You're living down the street from a criminal.
I know. I need to call her.
