Ben: You missed a good one. It was sensational.
벤: 좋은 경기를 놓쳤네. 엄청났는데.
Hal: I'd like to hear about it but I've got to get moving.
할: 듣고 싶긴 한데 내가 지금 가봐야 돼.
Ben: Why are you so busy?
벤: 왜 그렇게 바빠?
Hal: I'm going on a business trip tomorrow and I've got a lot of things to do to prepare.
할: 내일 출장가는데 준비할 게 많아.
Ben: That's right. I forgot. How much do you have to do?
벤: 맞다. 내가 잊어버렸네. 할 일이 얼마나 많아?

Hal: Thanks for asking but I don't think so.
할: 물어봐줘서 고마운데 괜찮아.
Ben: When do you come back?
벤: 자네 언제 돌아오는 거야?
