【劇情介紹】

?Leonard拉上Sheldon他們找Penny前男友要其還錢.可Kurt一點(diǎn)都不被這四人的陣勢(shì)嚇到,倒是那三人不講義氣地撇下Leonard一個(gè)人堅(jiān)守.有了上次的經(jīng)驗(yàn),這次Leonard特意穿了平角短褲,可Kurt卻在Leonard腦門上留下欠條.(他還真是推陳出新)

LEONARD: Hi,Kurt.

KURT: Lenny,right?

LEONARD: I don't really go by Lenny, but that's okay. Um, you remember Sheldon, Howard and Raj.

KURT: No. What do you want?

SHELDON: You don't remember me? How could he not remember me?

LEONARD: Sheldon,not now.

SHELDON: I remember him.

LEONARD: Okay,here it is.Penny's in kind of a financial jam, and the money that you owe her would go a long way to solving her problems.

KURT: And she sent you to get it from me?

LEONARD: No,no,she's too proud to ask for the money. I,on the other hand,feel you should honor your debt.

KURT: You do?

LEONARD: Feel is a kind of a... it's a strong word. Um,I just think it would be a nice gesture on your part.

KURT: She'll get it when she gets it.

HOWARD: Well,there you go. Problem solved.

RAJ: A successful quest. Now let's go find a gas station with a clean bathroom.

LEONARD: No,the problem isn't solved. He just blew us off.

SHELDON: I’v got it. He didn’t remember me because the last time we met, I was in a Halloween costume.

HOWARD: Come on,Leonard,let'go

LEONARD: No.You can leave if you want to. I'gonna see this through.

Okay.

LEONARD:I guess,technically,that was my fault. I'm not leaving here without Penny's money.

KURT: What happened to your backup?

LEONARD: I don't need backup. I have right on my side. And I'm wearing cargo shorts under my pants.

SHELDON: Congratulations.You may not have succeeded in getting cash, but you did secure a formal acknowledgment of the debt.
