The Big Bang Theory 2x08

The Lizard-Spock Expansion

Season 2, Episode 8

* Sheldon: Oh, look, Saturn 3 is on.
   Raj: I don't want to watch Saturn 3. Deep Space Nine is better.
   Sheldon: How is Deep Space Nine better than Saturn 3?
   Raj: Simple subtraction will tell you it's six better.
   Leonard: Compromise. Watch Babylon 5.
   Sheldon: In what sense is that a compromise?
   Leonard: Well, five is partway between three... Never mind.


* Raj: How about we go rock-paper-scissors?
   Sheldon: Ooh, I don't think so. Anecdotal evidence suggests that in the game of rock-paper-scissors, players familiar with each other will tie 75 to 80% of the time due to the limited number of outcomes. I suggest rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock.
   Raj: What?
   Sheldon: It's very simple. Scissors cuts paper. Paper covers rock. Rock crushes lizard. Lizard poisons Spock. Spock smashes scissors. Scissors decapitates lizard. Lizard eats paper. Paper disproves Spock. Spock vaporizes rock. And as it always has, rock crushes scissors.


* Sheldon: I'm sorry, but I'm not going to watch The Clone Wars TV series until I've seen The Clone Wars movie. I prefer to let George Lucas disappoint me in the order he intended.

* Leonard: Psst! Psst!
   Sheldon: Will you all excuse me? Leonard is subtly signaling that he'd like to talk to me in private.


* Leonard: So how was work today?
   Stephanie: Busy. I removed an appendix, a gall bladder and about a foot and a half of bowel.
   Leonard: I'm hoping that's three different guys.
   Stephanie: No, just the one. So, how was your day?
   Leonard: Oh, you know, I'm a physicist, so... I thought about stuff.
   Stephanie: That's it?
   Leonard: Well, I wrote some of it down.


* Leonard: Let me ask you something. If your friend thinks he's dating someone, but he's not because, in fact, you're dating her, does that make you a bad person?
   Penny: Well, that depends.
   Leonard: On what?
   Penny: Is that friend Wolowitz?
   Leonard: Yeah.
   Penny: Screw him. You're fine.

disprove — опровергать; доказывать ложность
vaporizes — испарять
gall bladder — жёлчный пузырь
