【劇情介紹】
Leonard在網(wǎng)上隨意競拍了一個時光機,竟然被他投中, Sheldon他們一邊好奇為什么沒有其他人投, 一邊商量著合買這臺時光機.
LEONARD: Some guy is auctioning off a miniature time machine prop from the original film and no one is bidding.
HOWARD: A time machine from the movie The Time Machine?
LEONARD: No, a time machine from Sophie's Choice.?
RAJ:?Boy, Sophie could have used a time machine in that movie.?Did you see it? It's rough.
HOWARD: Oh, that's cool.
LEONARD: Uh-huh.
RAJ:?It's only $800?
LEONARD: Yeah. And that's my bid.
SHELDON:?You bid $800?
LEONARD: lt was a spur-of-the-moment thing. I figured it would go for thousands, and I just wanted to be a part of it.
SHELDON:?There's only 30 seconds left in the auction.
HOWARD: Do you have $800?
LEONARD: Not to blow on a miniature time machine.
HOWARD: Don't worry. People wait until the last second, then they get it. It's called sniping.
RAJ: Fifteen seconds.
LEONARD: Come on, snipers.
RAJ: Ten, nine, eight—
LEONARD: Where are your snipers?
RAJ: Five.
LEONARD: Snipe.
RAJ: Four.
LEONARD: Snipe.
RAJ: Three, two.
LEONARD: Snipe, snipe.
RAJ: One.
LEONARD: Ah!
RAJ: Oh. Congratulations, you are the proud owner of a miniature time machine.
HOWARD: You lucky duck.
LEONARD:Heh.
SHELDON:I wonder why no one else bid. This is a classic piece of sci-fi movie memorabilia.
LEONARD:I know. But I still can't afford it.
HOWARD: Why don't we share it? We'll each put in 200 bucks and take turns having it in our house. -A time-share time machine.
RAJ: I'm in. Sheldon?
SHELDON: Wha--? Need you ask? But I still don't understand why no one else bid.
