看生活大爆炸學(xué)英語第一季第十集

【劇情介紹】

Sheldon的謊言越說越當(dāng)真了,還真請了個業(yè)余演員, Leonard對此很是無語啊. 這個臨時演員讓我想起<>里面的Barney.

SHELDON: I've hesitated to point this out but I must remind you we are in our predicament because of your initial and inadequate deceit. I'm just trying to clean up after your mess. We'll talk in the morning.

TOBY: Morning.

LEONARD:Who are you?

TOBY: I am Sheldon's cousin Leo.

LEONARD:Oh, God. Sheldon does not have a cousin Leo.

TOBY:?Au contraire,?I'm 26 years old. I'm originally from "Denton, Texas," but I was a Navy brat. I was brought up on a variety of military bases around the world. As a result, I've often felt like an outsider, never really fitting in probably the reason for my substance-abuse problem.

SHELDON: Excuse me, we just went over this. As the middle child, your addiction is rooted in your unmet need for attention.

TOBY: Oh, Sheldon, are we really gonna go with pop psychology?

SHELDON: For your information, this is all based on solid research. Just stick with the character profile I wrote for you.
