看生活大爆炸學(xué)英語第二季第十五集

【劇情介紹】

Leonard的媽媽Beverly來了,讓他很是痛苦, 相反Sheldon與Beverly相處很融洽, 大概是同類相吸吧.

BEVERLY:Your scan data will be very helpful to my research.You have a remarkable brain.

SHELDON: I know.Although I've always hated how my right frontal lobe looks in pictures.

BEVERLY: Common complaint among men. Nothing's ever big enough. Except when they get a tumor. Then you never hear the end of it.

SHELDON: I'd love to a scan of your brain sometime.

BEVERLY: Oh,I'll send you a link,but its physiology is fairly unimpressive.

SHELDON: Oh,I can't believe that.

BEVERLY: Your unwillingness to accept empirical evidence suggests an attempt at flattery.

SHELDON: My apologies. I've been living with your son too long. Gotten into some bad habits.

BEVERLY: Understandable.

SHELDON: Can I make you a cup of tea?

BEVERLY: I doubt it,but if anyone has a chance,it's probably you. I feel very comfortable around you.

SHELDON: I feel very comfortable around you,too. It's surprising because I generally don't feel comfortable around,well,anyone.

BEVERLY: Nor I.

SHELDON: What are the odds that two individuals as unique as ourselves would be connectedly someone as comparatively workaday as your son?

BEVERLY: Is that a rhetorical pointor would you like to do the math?

SHELDON: ?I'd like to do the math.

BEVERLY: I'd like that,too.
