Leonard失恋33天之round 5: 约会Penny

  -Penny: Oh, hey, Leonard.

  -Leonard: Good afternoon, Penny. So, hi... hey. Uh...I was wondering if you had plans for dinner.

  -Penny: Uh, you mean dinner tonight?

  -Leonard: There is an inherent ambiguity in the word "dinner”. Technically it refers to the largest meal of the day whenever it's consumed, so to clarify here, by dinner I mean supper.

  -Penny: Supper?

  -Leonard: Or dinner. I was thinking 6:30 if you can go. Or a different time.

  -Penny: Uh, 6:30 is great.

  -Leonard: Really? Great.

  -Penny: Yeah, I like hanging out with you guys.

  -Leonard: Us guys?

  -Penny: Yeah, you know, Sheldon, Howard, Raj,who all's coming?

  -Leonard: They... Might all be there? Or a subset of them might be there. Algebraically speaking, there are too many unknowns. For example, Sheldon had Quiznos for lunch. Sometimes he finds that filling, other times he doesn't. It's no fault of Quiznos- they have a varied menu.

  -Penny: Okay, whatever. It sounds like fun.

  鼓足勇气的Leonard来到了Penny家门口,邀请Penny一起共进晚餐,并向Penny解释什么是“dinner”。然而Penny把Leonard两人单独共进晚餐的请求误认为是一群好基友一起聚餐。
