看生活大爆炸學(xué)英語第一季第十三集

【劇情介紹】

Leonard他們要參加一個比賽,大家在討論取什么隊名而爭論不休.

SHELDON: Teams are traditionally named after fierce creatures thus intimidating one's opponent.

RAJ: We could be the Bengal Tigers.

SHELDON: Poor choice. Gram for gram no animal exceeds the relative fighting strength of the army ant.

RAJ: Maybe so, but you can't incinerate a Bengal tiger with a magnifying glass.

LEONARD: Let's put it to a vote. All those in favor…

SHELDON: Point of order.

SHELDON: I move that any vote on team names be unanimous.　No man should be forced to emblazon his chest with a Bengal tiger when common sense dictates it should be an army ant.

LEONARD: Will the gentleman from the great state of denial yield for a question?

SHELDON: I will yield.

LEONARD: After we go through the exercise of an annoying series of votes, which the gentleman will lose does he intend to quit if he does not get his way?

SHELDON: He does.

LEONARD: I move, We are the Army Ants. All those in favor?

PENNY:Good afternoon and welcome to today's Physics Bowl practice round.I'm Penny, and I'll be your host because apparently I didn't have anything else to do on a Saturday afternoon and isn't that just a little sad?Gentlemen, are you ready?

LEONARD: Yes.

HOWARD: Fire away.

PENNY: It's none of my business but is a guy who can't speak in front of women gonna hold you back?
