1 earnings: This is a correct choice. "Earnings" in this case refers to money obtained by working. Tommy is trying to explain that the 50 dollars his mother found is money he has "earned" or been given for the task of painting Mr. Jones' house. In this dialogue, Ira mentions that Bruno predicted big "earnings" (profits or dividends for the shareholders in this context) for Delavigne in the second financial quarter.
2 dare: This is a correct choice. The verb "to dare" (used as an auxiliary in this sentence) means to have the necessary courage to do something. Another example: "How dare you insult me!" Here, Tommy's mother uses this verb to express her shock and anger that Tommy would lie to her. In this dialogue, Horatio criticizes Ira's tone when he says "how dare you speak to Bruno Delavigne like that." He is questioning Ira's decision to speak so forwardly to Bruno.
3 trust: This is a correct choice. The verb "to trust" means to have confidence in someone (or something). When Tommy's mother says, "Why should I trust you?", she is asking her son to give her a good reason to believe his explanation. In this conversation, Ira Canker wonders if he and the shareholders of Delavigne can trust or believe Bruno's promises after his prediction was erroneous.
4 mislead: This is a correct choice. The verb "to mislead" means to "misinform someone" (on purpose!). Here, "you'd better not be trying to mislead me" has a similar meaning with, "you'd better not be trying to lie or misinform me." In this dialogue, Bruno states that he never intentionally "misled" or misinformed the shareholders.
5 overreacting: This is a correct choice. The verb "to overreact" means to "react", or "respond", in an excessive or extreme manner. By telling his mother that she is "overreacting", Tommy is expressing his belief that his mother's accusations are excessive, or disproportionate, to the event. In this dialogue, Bruno tells Ira Canker that there is no need to "overreact". He is encouraging him to calm down and not get so excited.
