So, let's begin!
Below is the conversation in that scene with English translation.
As you can see, Angel is getting upset with her husband, who always does the painting all the time. She needs him to help her clean the house.
Next, we're going to discuss and talk about the vocabulary from this movie.
B. Ini apaan sih? = The literal translation for this sentence is "What is this?" but in this situation, actually, Adi is kind of like asking what his wife was doing, tying his eyes with a cloth, like that. [Sih], in this case, has no meaning at all, but the function of [sih] in this sentence means that the person who is saying it really needs an explanation. If you omit [sih] in this sentence, it doesn't change the meaning at all. "Ini apaan?" has the same meaning as "Ini apaan sih?" but the one with [sih] has more emphasized, that the one who says the sentence really needs an answer. For more explanation about sih, you can read my article, The Meaning of Sih In Bahasa Indonesia. You can hear how to pronounce this sentence down below.
C. Kamu = you. [Kamu] has the same meaning as [Anda]. [Anda] is more formal than [kamu]. You can hear how to pronounce this word down below.
D. Kamu ngapain sih? = What are you doing? You can hear how to pronounce this sentence down below.
E. Ngapain = melakukan apa = doing what. This is informal and colloquial, you will hear a lot in conversational Indonesian. If I change this word into formal, it will become "melakukan apa." So, this sentence, "Kamu ngapain sih?" if I change into formal, it will become, "Kamu melakukan apa sih?" You can hear how to pronounce this word down below.
Now, let's see sentences in number (2).
B. Melulu = always, all the time. In conversational Indonesian, sometimes, you'll hear the word [mulu]. It has the same meaning as [melulu], people just omit the letter e and l there. [Melulu] is also a colloquial word that you will hear a lot in conversational Indonesian, but you will rarely see in written Indonesian. [Melulu], in this context, has the same meaning as [selalu], [setiap saat], and [terus]. How to pronounce [melulu], you can hear it down below.
And this is how to pronounce [mulu]
C. Bantu = help. How to pronounce [bantu], you can hear it down below.

F. Rumah = house. Here is how you pronounce [rumah].
G. Dong, this word has no meaning at all. If you omit this word, the sentence still has the same meaning, but it doesn't have the emotion. "Bantu aku beres-beres rumah!" and "Bantu aku beres-beres rumah dong!" has the same meaning, but the one with [dong] has an urgency in it. The speaker really asks someone to help him or her. To use the word [dong] correctly, you need to watch a lot of movies. [Dong], in this sentence, means that Angel really asks her husband to help her tidy up the house. In this situation, you can translate dong into "come on!" Here is how you pronounce dong.
Now, let's see sentences in number (3).
B. Ntar = nanti = later. But [ntar] can also short for [sebentar], which means [just a minute]. People sometimes tend to just omit the words [sebe] and shorten [sebentar] into [ntar]. You need to know the context of whether [ntar] that the man or the woman is saying is short for [sebentar (just a minute)], or it means [nanti (later)]. People also shorten word [sebentar] into [bentar]. Here is how to pronounce [ntar]. Sometimes people write it as [entar]. It's the same.
Here is how you pronounce [sebentar].
C. Kali = this word in this context has no meaning. It is an exclamation word to emphasize something. For more information about this word, I have already written an article about this in Kali Meaning In Bahasa Indonesia. Here is how you pronounce [kali].

I. Lihat nih = lihat ini = Look at this. Here, she pronounced it [liat], and she didn't pronounce the letter H there. You will hear a lot in conversational Indonesian, where people tend to drop the letter H in the word [liHat] and becomes [liat]. Here's how you pronounce [lihat nih].
