I'm skeptical that the "american looking california blonde" (also an unnatural phrase) even exists. what's the setup here, how does she relay the translation to him in real time? subvocalization and he's wearing an earpiece? pretty elaborate. it doesn't make sense. this is dimwit Jeffrey blowing smoke

She takes notes and gives him the notes after? Seems pretty simple to me. That or she doesn't take notes and gives him the gist of the conversation without the details being exacting after via conversation once they're in private.

Also the "American looking california blonde" was not a phrase the Chinese are alleged to have used, it was how EPSTEIN described the woman in his email to his friend.

but then he's not smiling while they're saying it, he's imagining himself smiling while remembering they said it. even if it's just because he's a dumbass who doesn't know how to write, I still don't think the story is true.

I have no idea why you would think I believed the Chinese said the phrase about the blonde. to me its awkwardness seems like him making the story up as he goes
