[MYTHOMINHTRAN]

octopus
noun [ C ]
us
/ˈɑk·tə·pəs, -ˌpʊs/
plural octopuses or octopi us/ˈɑk·təˌpɑɪ/ According to Cambridge dictionary, plural of "octopus" is "octopuses or octopi us". What is your thought?

Niel has excellent pronunciation, as earlier partner's like Beth.
But I can not recognize the starting and ending of words what speaks the Sam in this episode.
