生活大爆炸第八季 第160期:感觉他挺好的

 Not much, but he seemed to be in a pretty good place. 没怎么说，不过感觉他挺好的。

Are you kidding me? ! You lost my mother's ashes? ! 开什么玩笑？！你们居然把我妈的骨灰弄丢了？！

No, I-I'm just saying that sometimes bags are misrouted. 不是，我只是说有时候行李会被转错地方。

All right, fine. Where did you misroute the only woman who ever loved me? The first...well, first, I meant first. 好吧，行。那这世上唯一爱过我的女人被转错去哪了？第一个... 我是说第一个爱我。

I just need some information. Uh, what's the flight number? 我需要一些信息。航班号是多少？

816. 816。

I really did mean first. 我真的是指第一个。

Just drop it. 别说了。

And can you describe the bag? 你能描述一下那个行李吗？

Um, well, it's, uh, black. There's a red ribbon tied to the handle...-The world's greatest mom is in the shoe compartment¹! 是黑色的。把手上系有红色缎带。-世界上最伟大的妈妈就在放鞋的隔层里！

You ready to begin? 准备好开始了吗？

Yup. Be right there. I assume² you don't want wine. 好了，马上过来。我猜不用给你倒酒了吧。

Correct. You're not supposed to drink alcohol³ when operating heavy machinery⁴. 正确。在操作重型机械时千万不能喝酒。

What heavy machinery? Let's just start. 什么重型机械？开始吧。

Well, as a Texas gentleman, I'm inclined⁵ to say ladies first. 作为一名德州的绅士，我会倾向于女士优先。

Although, I'm concerned that level of politeness and charm⁶ might make you fall in love with me before the test even begins. 虽然我担心我这么有礼貌这么有魅力，可能会导致你在测试没开始之前就爱上我。

Perhaps we should flip⁷ a coin. Or if you're familiar with the rules of Rock, Paper, Scissors...- Question one. 要不我们扔硬币决定吧。或者如果你会玩剪刀石头布也行 ...-问题一。

Given the choice of anyone in the world, whom would you want as a dinner guest? 如果可以跟世上任何人共进晚餐，你会选择谁呢？

Living or dead? 活的还是死的？

Just says "Anyone in the world." I guess that means living. 上面只说"世上任何人"，我猜应该是活的吧。

Ah, that's just as well. 那也无妨。

As much as I'd love to meet Euclid-- inventor of the geometric proof-- he probably wore sandals and I cannot look at toes during dinner. 尽管我非常想见欧几里得(古希腊数学家)——几何证明的发明者——可他很可能穿着拖鞋(当年穿着)，我吃饭时可不想看到脚趾。

Oh, I know! The person I'd most like to have dinner with is myself. 我想到了！我最想共进晚餐的人就是我自己。

You sure that's your choice? 'Cause I've had that dinner. 你确定这个选择吗？因为我可是跟"他"吃过饭哦。

Well, I haven't. And while they say never meet your heroes, I just don't see how I could disappoint. Who would you choose? 我还没有。人们常说不要跟自己的英雄见面，但我不觉得我会让人失望。你会选择谁？

Robert Downey, Jr. 小罗伯特·唐尼(演员)。

You...I didn't think of Iron Man. You know, maybe after myself and I have dinner, we can meet you two for dessert. 你...我没想到钢铁侠。或许我和自己共进晚餐后，可以找你们一起吃个甜点。
