好的，这样跟你解释吧。
Assuming all the good Terminators were originally evil Terminators created by Skynet but then reprogrammed by the future John Connor.

terrific：极好的
我不能那么说。我只可能说"你唱得太棒了，我都等不及想要再听一遍了"

Google：谷歌搜索 online blog：在线博客 depict：描述 descent：沦落 desperate：令人绝望的 hopeful：有希望的 listing：列表
是的，如果他搜索 "Leopold Houston" 她会找到一个Facebook的页面---在线博客描述他对毒品的深陷以及在eHarmony.com(交友网站)上找到一个令人绝望却又有希望的列表。

好吧，为什么我要去参加你堂兄的药物干预治疗？

Long Beach：长滩市
啊! 因为是在长滩 (洛杉矶) 我不会开车。

intervention：干预 Focus：使集中
不，当然不去，没有Leo这个人也没有什么药物干预治疗。集中点精神 Leonard。
-Leonard：Aw, come on.
哦算了吧。

因为一个高尚的目的--把难堪的处境留给自己-- 装作有一个嗜毒为命的堂兄，至少我认为这很难堪，难道不是吗?
-Leonard：How am I supposed to remember all of this?
这么多我怎么记得住?
-Sheldon：Oh, that's the best part. You don't have to. See, I told Penny that you would be embarrassed if you knew that she found out that you had lied, so she's agreed to operate as if the original lie is still in force.
embarrass：使不安，使窘迫 found out：发现 original：起初的 in force：生效的
这是最精彩的部分你不需要记，听着我告诉Penny如果你知道她发现你撒了谎你会尴尬的，

expect：预料 actuality：实际情况 pretend：假装
那么她以为我会继续跟她撒谎说我们要去帕萨迪纳 (洛杉矶城市)参加讨论会，但是 "事实是" 我们要假装去长滩参加药物干预治疗。

不不用解释了，这是你们的千年鹰号宇宙飞船 (见"星球大战")，你和Chewbacca爱干什么干什么吧。(Chewbacca是"星球大战"中的角色)，我跟Leia公主今天晚上自己找乐子去。
