Ah ok, thanks for letting me know.👍 I know I didn't imagine hearing those lines but didn't realize I watched that many episodes! I just didn't want to bother to try to find where so thanks for saving me the trouble. Its is quite amazing how when armed with a chatbot, people who are illiterate in Chinese insist they must be right and a native speaker heard wrong omg! smh!🤦🏻‍♀️
