These are great!! Just a few changes 😊
'I invited some friends TO dinner' - this sounds more like Min invited friends to a dinner that might be somewhere else other than Min's home. 'I invited some friends FOR dinner' is a bit more obvious that Min invited friends to their house for dinner.
'Not ordering in food?' - It is totally fine to say this, but since your previous sentence brings up the topic of food, you can just shorten this sentence to, 'not order in?' and it will make complete sense.
'You don't order in?' - In this context, 'don't/do not' does not make sense. You need to use the future tense 'will not/won't.' You could use 'You don't order in?' if the context was something like:
Eddy: So you always cook? You don't (ever) order in?
I hope the above is helpful! 😊

Q:
He did? Eddy helped me "with" a lot of things, too.
(I cannot understand why this subtitles is written like that. Why "with" exists in there? I think it is more natural that "Eddy helped me a lot of thing, too.". What's the difference between that sentence is used with "with" or not?)
(I cannot understand why this subtitles is written like that. Why "with" exists in there? I think it is more natural that "Eddy helped me a lot of thing, too.". What's the difference between that sentence is used with "with" or not?)
A:
Yeah, I do think that's sound natural.
I think it's because in
"Eddy did help me a lot today"
"A lot" functions as an adverb to "help".
But it would also be natural to say:
"Eddy did help me with a lot today"
but here, "a lot" functions more as a noun as in "a lot (of things)".
So if you want to say you help someone... noun, you should use "with".
He helped me with a lot of problems.
Please help me with this puzzle...
However, you can drop the "with" if you help someone... action, like:
Come over here and help me "clean this up" (action).
My father helped me "open my first business" (action).

Q:
Eddy, you're half a beat fast. -Oh? Uh...
(How about " ~ a half beat fast."? Is it the same meaning with above?)
