00:05:24,079 --> 00:05:26,519
Speaker 3: Jacob stood on the banks of the Voltava in Prague,

51
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,040
where the morning rays of the spring sun gently reflected.

52
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 5: Ye him najd vitev.

53
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:46,199
Speaker 3: Around him, cherry blossoms began to unfold their delicate pink color,

54
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,759
tinting every branch.

Speaker 5: Ale proye kubagavai, but.

58
00:06:08,399 --> 00:06:11,199

Speaker 5: Ye kuprazovkozas chevv prestigi restorativ Senrusta.

60
00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:24,439
Speaker 3: Yakub worked as a sioux chef at a prestigious restaurant

61
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:25,560
in the city center.

62
00:06:26,399 --> 00:06:32,879
Speaker 5: Bill ambitios ni ye josnembistat se chef m.

00:06:34,879 --> 00:06:37,720

66
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 3: Today's challenge was simply this, to catch a rare fish,

67
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,920
a delicacy that would impress his boss at the upcoming culinary.

68
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:06,759
Speaker 6: Event problemchek bilo geribiaka brat.

69
00:07:08,759 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 3: The problem, however, was that the fish seemed to refuse

70
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:11,920
to bite.

71
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:19,839

74
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 3: Although she appeared calm and focused, she was internally struggling

75
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,759
with her own ambitions and dreams.

76
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 6: Tookiesf culinaria alerodlai hibilo.

77
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,519
Speaker 3: She longed for a career in the culinary world, but

78
00:07:54,639 --> 00:07:55,680
lacked the determination.

79
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 5: So navup akivl lavo sremi mumstunabre.

80
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:10,759
Speaker 3: What if we try over there, suggested Jacob, nodding his

81
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,959
head towards a more secluded spot on the shore.

82
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 5: Lenka zava hala nela sibnoski.

83
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:30,439

Speaker 3: Suddenly, Lenka spoke, I think we should try a smaller bait.

I've seen something like it work at another place before.

Speaker 3: The fish was finally theirs, and to Yakub's relief, it

102
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,080
was the rare one that could make his career.
