Speaker 3: She decided to take the initiative.

Speaker 3: her hair.
Speaker 1: Allo era una pista.
Speaker 3: That was a clue.
Speaker 1: Turnana surti munserrat gridal Now calasaiya a munas pass the distancia.

Speaker 3: It's here, she exclaimed, with her voice full of hope.

Speaker 3: know how to get out.
