【剧情介绍】
见识到Kripke 机器人的厉害后, Sheldon还不死心说要把Monte打造地更强,结果他只是帮Monte换了电池而已, Kripke给机会让Sheldon认输,但是貌似Sheldon也是字典里没这两个字的人,硬磕到底了,结果…很惨…
RAJ: But,Sheldon,we don't have a chance.The only improvement you were able to make on the robot was to put fresh batteries in the remote.
SHELDON: What you fail to realize is Kripke suffers from a fatal flaw: overconfidence from his robot's massive size and its overwhelming power.
RAJ: That's not overconfidence. That's observation.
SHELDON: Trust me,Kripke will fall easy prey to my psychological warfare. Observe. Kripke. I would ask if your robot is prepared to meet its maker, but as you are its maker, clearly the two of you have met.
KRIPKE: What is his problem?
RAJ: Way to bust out the Jedi mind tricks, dude.
LEONARD: I just want to make sure that we're all clear. Standard robotic fighting league rules apply.
KRIPKE: Are you crazy? This is a street fight. The street has no rules.
SHELDON: He's right, Leonard. The paradigm is to the death.
KRIPKE: I will, however, give you the opportunity to concede my superiority now and offer me your robot as the spoils of war.
SHELDON: Never. I'd rather see Monte dead than in your hands.
KRIPKE: That could be easily arranged. Ready, set,go?
SHELDON: Do it.
