Transcript

The opening of the episode. The whole transcript is in the player.

0:48

So I'm driving through Playa Coco looking for this red taxi driver. It's dark here. And there's a particular taxi driver I'm looking for. I know his cab number. I know what he looks like and I know his name.

1:05

Playa Coco at night is different. Wilder and more unpredictable. I've been looking for this red cab for a while. They're all numbered and the driver of this specific one is popular with expats because he can speak English pretty well.

1:22

I'm wondering what his reaction will be if I start talking to him about Jackie. Trying to find one specific cab four years later may seem like a long shot, but I think it's one well worth the taking. I'm just heading into the downtown area now. Past the last speed bump before I get into town.

That was the opening. The rest of the episode (38 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
