　　对不起，没有Wolowitz我们吃不成。
　　-Leonard：We can't order Chinese food without Wolowitz?
　　没有Wolowitz我们就不能点中国菜?
　　-Sheldon：Let me walk you through it.
　　我来给你解释一下。
　　Our standard order is:
　　我们的标准菜单是:
　　the steamed dumpling appetizer 2, General Tso's chicken,
　　用蒸饺开胃然后上左宗棠鸡，
　　beef with broccoli 3, shrimp 4 with lobster 5 sauce and vegetable lo mein.
　　芥兰牛肉，龙舟活鱼，最后吃菜捞面。
　　Do you see the problem?
　　你看出问题所在了吗?
　　-Leonard：I see a problem.
　　我看你是个问题。
　　-Sheldon：Our entire order is predicated on four dumplings and four entrees 7 divided amongst four people.
　　我们整个的点菜是建立在点四只蒸饺、四道小菜、四个人分着吃的基础上的。
　　-Leonard：So, we'll just order three entrees.
　　那我们就点三个菜好了。
　　-Sheldon：Fine. What do you want to eliminate?
　　好吧，你想去掉哪个?
　　And who gets the extra dumpling?
　　谁能吃那只多余的蒸饺?
　　-Raj：We could cut it into thirds.
　　我们可以把它三等分。
　　-Sheldon：Then it's no longer a dumpling.
　　那它就不是蒸饺了。
　　Once you cut it open it is,
　　一旦你把它切开，
　　at best, a very small open-faced sandwich.
　　充其量它只是个开口的小三明治。
　　-Waiter：Hi, fellas. Oh, where's your annoying little friend who thinks he speaks Mandarin 8?
　　嗨，伙计们，你们那个招人厌的自以为会说普通话的朋友去哪儿了?
　　-Sheldon：He's putting his needs ahead of the collective good.
　　他把个人利益置于集体利益之上，
　　Where he comes from, that's punishable by death.
　　在他的祖国这样会被处以死刑。
　　-Waiter：I come from Sacramento.
　　我来自萨克拉曼多。
　　-Leonard：Can we get an order of dumplings but with three instead of four?
　　我们能点一份蒸饺但是只要三个吗？
　　-Waiter：No substitutions.
　　不能换成别的。
　　-Leonard：This isn't a substitution. It's a reduction.
　　不是换成别的，是减少分量。
　　-Waiter：Okay. No reductions.
　　好吧，不能减少分量。
　　-Leonard：Fine. Uh, bring us three orders of dumplings.
　　好吧，给我们上三份蒸饺。
　　That's 12. We'll each have four. That works.
　　一共12个，我们每人4个，这样就行了。
　　-Sheldon：No. If we fill up on dumplings,
　　不行，如果我们用蒸饺填饱了肚子，
　　we need to eliminate another entree 6.
　　就必须再去掉一道菜。
　　-Waiter：No eliminations 9.
　　不能去掉。
　　-Leonard：If we have extra, we'll just take the leftovers 10 home.
　　如果有剩下的，我们就打包带回家。
　　-Sheldon：And divide it how?
　　然后怎么分?
　　I'm telling you, we cannot do this without Wolowitz.
　　我给你说了，没有Wolowitz我们吃不成。
　　-Leonard：Wolowitz is with his new girlfriend.
　　Wolowitz和他的新女朋友在一起。
　　If you had let me invite Penny,
　　如果你让我邀请Penny的话，
　　then you would have had your fourth.
　　就会有第四个人了。
　　-Sheldon：Have you seen Penny eat Chinese food?
　　你见过Penny吃中国菜吗?
　　She uses a fork and she double-dips her egg rolls.
　　她用的是叉子而且吃蛋皮春卷要蘸两次酱。
　　-Leonard：We don't order egg rolls.
　　我们不点蛋皮春卷。
　　-Sheldon：Exactly, but we'd have to if she was here!
　　没错，但是如果她来了就会点的。
　　-Raj：Can we please make a decision?
　　我们快点做决定好吗？
　　Not only are there children starving in India,
　　不仅是印度的孩子们在挨饿，
　　there's an Indian starving right here.
　　这里就有一个印度人在挨饿。
　　-Leonard：There's an idea.
　　有主意了。
　　Why don't we just go out for Indian food?
　　我们为什么不去吃印度菜呢？
　　-Waiter：You're nice boys.
　　你们都是好孩子。
　　Tell you what I'm going to do.
　　让我告诉你们怎么办吧。
　　I'm going to bring you the four dumplings.
　　我会给你们上四个蒸饺。
　　When I'm walking over to the table,
　　当我朝这张桌子走过来时，
　　maybe I get bumped, one of the dumplings fall to the floor.
　　可能我被绊了一下，一个蒸饺掉在了地上。
　　No one has to know.
　　没人会知道。
　　-Sheldon：I'll know.
　　我会知道的。
　　-Raj：How about soup?
　　喝汤怎么样？
　　-Leonard：Yeah, we can always divide soup.
　　对，我们总能平分汤的。
　　-Sheldon：What about the wontons?
　　汤里的馄饨怎么办？
　　-Penny：Oh! Hey, guys, what's up?
　　嘿，伙计们怎么了?
　　-Leonard：It's Halo night.
　　又到"光晕"之夜了。
　　-Penny：Yeah? Okay. So?
　　是吗?好吧，然后呢？
　　-Leonard：Well, with Wolowitz spending all of his time with your friend Christy...
　　是这样，Wolowitz把他所有时间都花在你朋友Christy身上...
　　-Penny：She's not my friend.
　　她不是我朋友。
　　Friends do not get their friends' Care Bears all sweaty.

　　-Leonard：Right. Anyway, uh, with Wolowitz occupied elsewhere,
　　好吧，不管怎样Wolowitz有事在身，
　　we had something we wanted to ask you.
　　我们想请你做件事。
　　Sheldon?
　　Sheldon?
　　-Sheldon：Yes. Penny...
　　好的。Penny…
　　we would very much appreciate it if you would be the fourth member of our Halo team.
　　我们很荣幸邀请你成为我们"光晕"团队的第四名成员。
　　I don't think I need to tell you what an honor this is.
　　我想我用不着解释这是多大的荣耀了。
　　-Penny：Oh, that's so sweet, but I'm going out dancing with a girlfriend.
　　哦，你们真是太好了，但我今晚要和朋友去跳舞。
　　-Sheldon：You can't go out; it's Halo night.
　　你不能出去，今天是"光晕"之夜。
　　-Penny：Well, for Penny, it's dancing night.
　　对于我Penny，今天是舞蹈之夜。
　　-Sheldon：You go dancing every Wednesday?
　　你每周三都去跳舞?
　　-Penny：No.
　　不。
　　-Sheldon：Then that's not "dancing night."
　　那就不是"舞蹈之夜"。
　　-Penny：Look, why don't I play with you guys tomorrow?
　　听着，我明天陪你们玩怎么样?
　　-Sheldon：Tonight is Halo night.
　　今晚才是"光晕"之夜。
　　It's like talking to a wall.
　　我怎么像对牛弹琴。
　　-Penny：All right, now, Sheldon, you and I are about to have a problem.
　　好了，Sheldon 现在咱俩要有麻烦了。
　　-Leonard：Sheldon, remember, we role-played this.
　　Sheldon我们可是事先排练过的。
　　-Sheldon：but you didn't portray 11 her as completely irrational 12.

　　if we could go dancing with her and her girlfriend.
　　和她还有她女朋友一起跳舞。
　　-Sheldon：Okay, assuming we could dance-- which we can't--
　　好的，假设我们会跳舞...实际上不会
　　there are three of us and two of them.
　　就变成了我们三男和她们两女。
　　-Leonard：So?
　　那又怎样?
　　-Sheldon：It's the Chinese restaurant all over again.
　　这和吃中国菜的性质一样。
　　I assure you that cutting a dumpling in thirds
　　我向你保证把一只蒸饺切成三等分
　　is child's play compared with three men each attempting to dance with 67% of a woman.
　　可比我们每人和67%的女人跳舞容易的多。
　　-Leonard：For God's sakes, Sheldon, you're driving me crazy!
　　我的天啊，Sheldon 你快把我逼疯了。

　　今天是"光晕"之夜。
　　-Christy：He's not a man, he's a putz!
　　他不是个男人，他是个蠢货。
　　-Howard’ mom: And don't you take that tone with me, you gold digger!
