Question about English (US)

Sometimes when i see the movies
They usually say "you"

But it's kinda weird to me
because they dont meant to say "You"

For example

A: How's the test? What grades did you get?
B: i just passed. they dont have any grades,
"If you get above the average, you're just pass"

There was no expression "YOU" in subtitles


I thought it was just a liberal translation,
but.. i dont think so
I think you guys usually use the word "you",
including when you dont need expression "you"


Am i right?
