in the line where he's like "i pulled up to the/a house about 7 or 8"
i say the or a because i think its ambiguous which one he says. dont jump to conclusions... in my experience if you think its the it sounds like the, and if you think its a it sounds like a.
as far as i can see, there are 3 potential interpretations:
1. i pulled up to a house about 7 or 8 - "a house about 7 or 8" is slang for a house worth about 7 or 8 million
2. i pulled up to the/a house about 7 or 8 - 7 or 8 means 7:00 or 8:00
3. i pulled up to a house... about 7 or 8 - where the pause implies that he pulls up to 1... nah 7 or 8 houses before finding the right one
what do you guys think
big bucks riding on this one
