Interpreting in the dark

Interpreting in the dark (literal dark, this time. Not figurative) happens so often and in so many different settings we are posting it again. And will post it in the future. The stories may be different and the approaches to solving the problem may be different. Please, how do you interpret when the lights go out?

You are interpreting in the educational setting and your professor shows a long movie clip. Thankfully the movie is subtitled. But the professor holds running commentary throughout the entire clip. There isn't enough ambient light to interpret his commentary.

--you, do nothing. It's not related to the content anyway.
--interpret what you remember when the lights come back on.
--talk to the professor afterward.

What other options do you have?
