【剧情介绍】

Leonard终于鼓起勇气约Penny出去,但是Penny又很纠结,怕恋人做不成连朋友也失去于是想问Sheldon意见.

Penny:Yeah. Why not? I mean, what do I have to lose?

Leonard:Yeah. That's the spirit.

Sheldon:Show me your citrus peels. Gei wo kan ni yong de chen pi. Show me your citrus peels. Gei wo kan ni yong de chen pi. Show me your...

Penny:Sheldon? Sheldon?

Sheldon:Ai yah!Xia si wo le.

Penny:I'm sorry. Look, do you have a second?

Sheldon:A second what, pair of underwear?

Penny:I was just wondering if I could talk to you. It's about Leonard.

Sheldon:Why me?Why not Koothrappali or Wolowitz?

Penny:Well, Raj can't talk to me unless he's drunk, and Wolowitz is, you know, disgusting.

Sheldon:Yes, I suppose he is

Penny:All I'm saying is, you know Leonard the best.

Sheldon:Not necessarily. I'm often surprised by my lack of familiarity with Leonard. Just the other day I discovered he not only has a loofah, Why do you suppose a man would be ashamed of having a loofah? I, myself, prefer to have my excess epithelial cells slough off naturally, but I don't condemn those who seek to accelerate the process. And until recently I had no idea that despite his lactose intolerance, he can tolerate small amounts of non-fat ice cream without producing a noxious gas that I maintain, in the right concentration, could be weaponize.
