Sheldon 为了升级宽带说服Leonard去赚“外快”, 但是Sheldon却临时改主意了。本~地~生~活~网
SHELDON: I don’t think I can do this.
LEONARD: are you kidding? You’re a semi-pro.
SHELDON: No. We are committing genetic fraud. There's no guarantee our sperm's going to generate high-IQ offspring. Think about that. I have a sister with the same basic DNA mix who hostesses at Fuddruckers.b+d+s+h+5+c+o+m
LEONARD:Sheldon, this was your idea. A little extra money to get fractional T1 bandwidth in the apartment?
SHELDON: I know. And I do yearn for faster downloads. There's some poor woman who's gonna pin her hopes on my sperm. What if she winds up with a toddler who doesn't know if he should use an integral or a differential to solve for the area under a curve?
