【劇情介紹】

Sheldon, Leonard, Howard和Raj在Penny打工的店里吃飯, Sheldon正在糾結(jié)吃什么,正好遇見(jiàn)Leonard的同事Leslie. 跟Sheldon學(xué)習(xí)下如何點(diǎn)單,或者說(shuō)如何惹怒服務(wù)員:p

PENNY: All right, thank you. And Sheldon?

SHELDON:We don't eat here. I don't know what's good.

PENNY: Well, it's all good.

SHELDON:Statistically unlikely.

LEONARD: Just get a hamburger. You like hamburgers.

SHELDON: I like the hamburgers where we usually have hamburgers. You can't make the assumption that I'll like the hamburgers here.

LEONARD: I'm sorry. Give him a hamburger.

PENNY: Which one, the classic burger, the ranch house burger, the barbeque burger or the Kobe burger?

SHELDON:Can't we just go to Big Boy? They only have one burger, the Big Boy.

PENNY: The barbeque burger's like the Big Boy.

SHELDON: In a world that already includes a Big Boy why would I settle for something like a Big Boy?

PENNY: Because you are not at Big Boy.

SHELDON: Fine. I'll have the barbeque burger.

LEONARD: Make it two.

SHELDON: Waitresses don't yell at you at Big Boy.

LESLIE: Hey, Leonard. Hi, guys.

HOWARD: Hey.

LEONARD: Hey, Leslie.

LESLIE: I didn't know you ate here.

SHELDON: We don't. This is a disturbing aberration.

LEONARD: Leslie, this is Penny, she lives across the hall from Sheldon and me.

HOWARD: And walks in quiet beauty like the night.

PENNY: Howard, I've asked you not to do that.

LEONARD: Leslie and I do research together at the university.

PENNY: Oh, wow. A girl scientist.

LESLIE: Yep. Come for the breasts, stay for the brains.

PENNY: So I'm glad I ran into you. The Physics Department string quartet needs a new cellist.
