66
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: Lenka, his good friend, went with him, but she was

67
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,480
a bit skeptical.

68
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,519
Speaker 1: Mussi made chascatrine.

73
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,399
Speaker 3: Yacoup stopped at each interactive exhibit, while Renka kept an

74
00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:09,160
eye on the clock.

75
00:07:09,759 --> 00:07:12,839

Speaker 1: Nayid no zacello musom zasi nat svitla osval sehlas mosom Seesavira.

78
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,279
Speaker 3: Suddenly, the museum began turning off the lights, and a

79
00:07:29,399 --> 00:07:31,920
voice announced the museum is closing.

80
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: Prosime O puste budovo.

Lenka urged alestiglavni muffodo d verte.

00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,439
Speaker 3: But when they reached the main entrance, the doors were

87
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:02,319
already closed.

88
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,600

Speaker 1: Smesame zashev talia kupnae ale lenkaenula to yakube, We're alone.

92
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,639

93
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: Yaku ro sena ni vijot.

94
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,279

Speaker 1: Exit proschlicolem exposit costre mosto a yakupstiskotla chitko.

96
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:42,799
Speaker 3: They passed by an exhibit on the wooden skeleton of

97
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,039
a bridge, and Yaku pressed a button.

98
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:51,159
Speaker 1: Costre mostu serrosvikia azacella mluvit os mechanismo.

99
00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 3: The bridge skeleton lit up and began talking about its mechanism.

00:08:56,759 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 1: Ostrahlenkatla chitkovula.

101
00:09:02,159 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 3: A frightened Tenka quickly turned off the button.

102
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:12,879
Speaker 1: Otne be careful, mug mespustit alarum, we might trigger an

104
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: But it's a unique opportunity. Yakub laughed and continued on

105
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:30,639
his way.

106
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:37,519
Speaker 1: Nayid no yakub zahit KOs napissem nozovi pocus.

107
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,519
Speaker 3: Suddenly, Yakoup spotted a button labeled emergency.

108
00:09:42,039 --> 00:09:45,399
Speaker 1: Attempt bezva ni osmachiko.

109
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: Without hesitation, he pressed it.

00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:55,919
Speaker 1: Sele musoma pestri mis sitadba.

111
00:09:57,519 --> 00:10:00,519
Speaker 3: The entire museum lit up with colorful lights and loud

112
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,240
music played.

113
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:08,679
Speaker 1: Toye problem, this is a problem, len kadyev neviles la scuge.

114
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:11,759
Speaker 3: Lenka nearly jumped out of her.

00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: Skin redl asnajiriett.

116
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 3: They quickly rushed on, trying to escape as fast as they.

117
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: Could nakontzlenkashla malonna potera vedado.

118
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 3: Finally, Remka found a small, inconspicuous hallway leading to a

119
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,080
service entrance.

120
00:10:36,799 --> 00:10:38,240

00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 3: As soon as they reached the doors, they opened and

124
00:10:55,039 --> 00:10:56,639
they stepped out into the chilly night.

125
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,039
Speaker 1: Yea coopsesastavil avs len kuzaruku.

126
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,679

Speaker 1: Hand diekuyuvem bestebe bhumto asinzvadi.

134
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 3: Muza, Jacoup and Zanka quickly ran through the snow away

135
00:11:50,879 --> 00:11:51,960
from the museum.

136
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:59,639
Speaker 1: Del cas abo sici slabez vuki exponatu ter vale.

137
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 3: In the distance behind them, they heard the faint sounds

138
00:12:04,039 --> 00:12:05,840
of the exhibits slowly calming down.

139
00:12:06,519 --> 00:12:16,039

141
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,320
promised that next time they would enjoy the visit in daylight.
