Уже восемь, а отчёт готов наполовину. Как мы успеем к утру?
It's already eight, and the report is only half done. How will we make it by morning?

Если будем сидеть до ночи, успеем. Другого выхода нет.
If we sit here till night, we'll make it. There's no other way.

А у меня билет на хоккей... Ладно, пойду сварю нам кофе.

Давай. Потом разделим: ты проверяешь таблицы, а я заканчиваю выводы.
Go ahead. Then we'll split it: you check the tables, and I'll finish the conclusions.

Идёт. Только бы в сданном отчёте снова ошибок не нашли.
Deal. Let's just hope they don't find mistakes in the report again once it's handed in.

Не найдут. Цифры будут проверенные, а хоккей посмотришь в записи.
They won't. The figures will be checked, and you can watch the hockey on replay.
