We need to talk about your upcoming mission. 我们要谈谈你即将到来的任务

Yes, yes, I've been doing my push-ups. 好的，我有坚持做俯卧撑

I'm still stuck at nine, but... 还是只能做九个，但...

...that's going all the way down with no one holding me. 已经不用人抱着我来做了

That's great, uh, but that's not why I called. 很好，但我不是想说这事

We've run into a bit of a snafu. 我们这边出了点状况

Your Soyuz capsule failed the pressurization test, so bottom line, mission's been scrubbed. 你的联盟号太空舱增压测试失败，所以任务取消了

You're kidding. So what does that mean? 你逗我呢，这是什么意思?

Boy, I got to tell you, I'm really disappointed. 天啊，我真的很失望

This was my dream ever since I was a little kid. 这是我从小的梦想

Okay, well, uh, thanks for the call. 好的，谢谢你致电

Yep, you, too. Yes! Thank you! 好，你也是。耶! 谢天谢地!

I'm not gonna die in space! 我不会死在太空了!

I'm gonna die the way God intended, in my late 50s, with a heart full of pastrami. 我会按照上天安排，在快六十岁时，因熏牛肉塞爆心脏而死

I'm going to need a larger shirt. 我需要件大点儿的衬衫

This one's a little tight under the arms. Okay. 这件腋下有点紧。好的

Do you think maybe it's tight because you're wearing long underwear? 会不会是因为你穿了连身秋衣?

Yes, of course that's why it's tight. 是的，所以才会紧嘛

All right, let me rephrase the question. Why are you wearing long underwear? 好吧，我改变下问法，你为什么要穿连身秋衣?

You're kidding. Shouldn't the question be: why aren't you? 你逗我呢，不是该我问"你为什么不穿"吗?

No, it should be: why are you? 不，应该是，你为什么要穿?

Leonard, these rental¹ tuxedos³ have been worn by hundreds of sweaty strangers. 莱纳德，这些出租的燕尾服，被几百号汗流浃背的陌生人穿过

I don't like my own sweat touching⁴ my skin, how do you think I feel about theirs? 我连自己的汗都不喜欢，他们的汗就更别说了

Why don't you slip this on? 试试套下这件吧?

Said the hangman offering a noose⁵. 说得好像要给我戴脖套绞刑一样

Well, that wasn't as entertaining as when he rents bowling⁶ shoes, but it was right up there. 虽然没有他去租保龄球鞋时搞笑，但也差不多了

My orders have been rescinded⁷. I am officially "no go" to space. 我的任务取消了，我正式去不成太空了

I'm sorry, Howard, but I got to tell you, I'm a little relieved you're not going. Why? 很遗憾，霍华德，但我为你松了口气呢。为什么?

Come on, you were gonna go up in a rocket designed in the 1960s by the Russians.  不是吧，你要乘60年代，苏联人设计的火箭上太空。

Ooh, check out this Blu-ray player, it must be good, it was built in Russia"? "看看这个蓝光播放器，肯定很棒，因为是苏联制造的"

When you come back to Earth in a Soyuz capsule, you free-fall from space at 500 miles per hour, 当你乘联盟号太空舱返回地球时，会以时速500英里自由下落

and the only thing that slows you down is a little parachute that pops out right before you crash into the ground. 帮你减速的只有一把小小的降落伞，在你快撞上地面时才撑开

And the whole thing was designed by the same brilliant minds who were unable to capture Rocky and Bullwinkle. 设计整套装备的这堆天才连"飞鼠"和"洛基"（美动画片两主角，反派为苏联人）都逮不到
