Harold and Bruno use several interesting terms and idioms in this conversation.
Select the best definition for each of the terms and idioms below.

"You're bound to (make some mistakes)" --> You will surely (make some mistakes) 1.

"Where are you headed?" --> Where are you going? 2?

"You have to learn to crawl before you can walk" --> Don't try to do more than you are capable of 3.
1 You will surely (make some mistakes): This is the correct choice. The "be bound to" construction is used to describe a situation which will "inevitably" happen, or is "sure" to happen. This construction expresses the sense of near certainty in this future. Example: I can see gray clouds. It's bound to rain tomorrow. "You will surely (make some mistakes)" expresses a similar meaning. In this dialogue, Bruno reassures Harold Warbuckle by saying "you're bound to get your financial situation sorted out in no time", meaning that Bruno is confident that Harold will "surely" remedy the situation quickly.
1 You ought to (make some mistakes): "Ought to" is an auxiliary which expresses a sense of a strong suggestion, similar to "should. The phrase "you ought to" (do something) is a suggestion or piece of advice given from one person to another. Example: You ought to tell him that you crashed the car before he finds out himself. This is not the meaning of 'you're bound to (make some mistakes)".
1 You must (make some mistakes): The phrase "you must (make some mistake)" expresses an obligation or necessity to make mistakes. This is not the meaning of "you are bound to (make some mistakes)".
1 You have (made some mistakes): The phrase "you have" (made some mistakes) simply expresses that someone made a mistake in the past. This is the present perfect tense, used to describe an action which took place at an unspecified time in the past. This is not the meaning of "you are bound to (make some mistakes)".
2 Where are you going?: This is the correct choice. The question "where are you headed?" asks "where" or in "which direction" someone is going. Also note that the expression "to be headed (to the beach)" means to go in the direction of or towards the beach. In this conversation, Warbuckle asks Bruno "where he is headed" and Bruno replies that he is going "yachting with the Sultan of Brunei". Although this isn't a destination, it does indicates that Bruno plans to go somewhere in order to yacht with the Sultan of Brunei.
2 What are you doing?: This is an incorrect choice. The phrase "what are you doing?" does not express the same meaning as "where are you headed?"
2 What are you thinking?: This is an incorrect choice. The question "what are you thinking?" does not express the same meaning as "where are you headed?"
2 What's wrong with you?: The phrase "what's wrong with you?" does not mean the same as "where are you headed?"
3 Don't try to do more than you are capable of: This is the correct choice. "You have to learn to crawl before you can walk" is an idiom (and proverb) meaning that one mustn't rush into doing something before they are ready, and that sometimes small steps are more effective than big ones. For example, someone who has never practiced running long distances before should not compete in a marathon right away. In this conversation, Bruno is suggesting that Harold make small changes to his lifestyle at first in order to eventually recover financially.
3 Don't grow up too fast : This is an incorrect choice. Although "crawling" (walking around on your hands and knees) is associated with young children, this idiom has nothing to do with "growing up" or ageing too quickly.
3 Don't take too many risks: This is an incorrect choice. To "take a risk" refers to doing something which is potentially dangerous or uncertain in some way. This is not the meaning of the proverb "you have to learn to crawl before you can walk".
3 Don't complicate matters needlessly: This is an incorrect choice. To cause "complicate matters needlessly" is to make matters (or issues) more complex or difficult then they need to be. This is not the meaning of the proverb "you have to learn to crawl before you can walk".
