生活大爆炸第八季 第10期:毛毛虫

 And whiter, too, 'cause I wasn't in direct sunlight for six weeks. 也更白了因为我六周没有晒过太阳了。

See? This trip was good for you. 你瞧，这次旅行对你有好处。

Indeed. I was the world's smartest caterpillar¹. 的确。我是全世界最聪明的毛毛虫。

And then after pupating in our nation's railway system, I've burst forth² as the world's smartest butterfly. 在咱们国家铁路网上化蛹后，我破茧而出变成了全世界最聪明的蝴蝶。

Butterfly could've gotten himself home from Arizona. 蝴蝶可以自己从亚利桑那州飞回家。

Yeah, I feel renewed. 我感觉重生了。

I'm ready to deal with any changes that come my way. 我准备好面对未来一切的改变。

Hey. Look who's back! 看谁回来了！

Your hair is different. You changed your hair. 你的发型不同了。你换了发型。

I can't take this. I'm out. 我接受无能。我走人了。

Would you like to see pictures from my trip? 你们想看看我旅行时的照片吗？

I thought your phone got stolen. 你的电话不是被偷了吗。

Yeah, it did, but luckily all my photos got backed up to the Cloud. 是的，但幸运的是所有照片都在云端备份了。

And you thought they all had a silver lining³. 原以为守得云开见月明。

Here: Day one. 看，第一天。

Uh, this was the seat I was going to sit in but didn't because there were cracker⁴ crumbs⁵ on it. 这个是我本来要坐的座位，但我没坐因为上面有饼干屑。

As it was first class, I suspect Ritz. 因为是一等座，我怀疑是乐之饼干。

This is the train bathroom. 这是火车上的厕所。

This is the Imodium I took so I would never have to use the train bathroom. 这是我吃的泻立停，这样我不必使用火车上的厕所。

I cannot believe you traveled the entire country and never left the train station. 我真不敢相信你游遍了全国却从没离开过火车站。

I know. 就是啊。

You know, I almost died in a fire in Des Moines, but I stayed put. 我差点在得梅因的火灾中丧生，但我坚持留在火车上。

FYI-that's when the Imodium gave out. 顺便说下当事泻立停的药效过了。
