看生活大爆炸学英语第二季第十七集

【剧情介绍】

Sheldon电脑内存不够,他又陷入纠结门,到底是删除文件还是加内存呢?但是一旦打开主机箱就不能保修了.

HOWARD: Okay,Raj. Hand me the #6 Torx screwdriver.

SHELDON: Stop. We can't do this. It's not right.

RAJ: Sheldon,you have two choices. ther you let him put a bigger hard drive in the TiVo, or you delete stuff before we go out of town.

SHELDON: But once you open the box,you've voided the warranty. The warranty is a sacred covenant we've entered into with the manufacturer. He offers to stand by his equipment,and we in return agree not to violate the integrity of the internal hardware. This little orange sticker is all that stands between us and anarchy.

LEONARD: Okay,then we won't touch the hard drive. We'll just erase the first season of Battlestar.

SHELDON: There. We're outlaws.

PENNY: Here you go,Leonard. Is this going to be big enough?

LEONARD: It's perfect.

HOWARD: For taking daffodils to your unicorn.

HOWARD: It's just for my notebooks. Thanks,Penny.

PENNY: I love San Francisco. I wish I was going with you.

SHELDON: I understand your envy. Thiss a can't-miss symposium. There are going to be discussions on bioorganic cellular computer devices, the advancements in multi-threaded task completion, plus a roundtable on the nonequilibrium Green's function approach to the photoionization process in atoms.

PENNY: When I go,I usually just get hammered and ride the cable cars.
