Hr: "Napravi neke šišmiše", rekla je.
En: "Make some bats," she said.

Hr: "Učinit ćemo ovu sobu jezivom.
En: "We'll make this room spooky."

Hr: "U međuvremenu, Zoran je sjedio u kutu, promatrao i smišljao ideje.

Hr: Njegov plan?
En: His plan?

Hr: Stvoriti nešto što će iznenaditi sve.

Hr: "Probaš li se kretati malo sporije, možda nećemo uplašiti nadzornicu", našali se Zoran.
En: "If you try moving a little slower, we might not scare the supervisor," Zoran joked.

Hr: Svi su se nasmijali.
En: Everyone laughed.

Hr: Uskoro je došao trenutak da Zoran pokaže svoju kreaciju.
