[English]

well it's nice you got him that oh this

isn't for Leonard Amy bought it for me

sub his toe on the revolving door on the

way in you know those confounded things

make me dizzy who told you to keep going

around there was a large plant in the

lobby it kept looking like the outside

okay listen Leonard comes out he is not

gonna feel great so please don't give

him a hard time penny has a good point

this is like the man in the supermarket

with the goiter on his neck whatever

you're thinking just keep it to yourself

it was like a grapefruit and I'm sure he

knew that before you held a grapefruit

up next to him well I'm not making any

promises

not only did Leonard take what I feel is

an unnecessary risk he deceived me the

reason he deceived you is you were being

a pain in the ass the reason I was being

a pain in the bee is because I was

worried about him and no one else was

really you won't even say you bet your

sweet bee I won't I'm gonna spend the

rest of my life with him what and I'm

not it's an earthquake I knew it it was

just a little tremor a little tremor

that turns routine sinus surgery into a

frontal lobotomy

oh I don't care for this at all I need

to see he's okay Sheldon you can't go

back there try and stop me

Christmas card

it my fault I told you not to get the

surgery

I don't know which hurts worse my nose

or my heart I'm done speaking to you

this out yeah cuz you sound really funny

I'm sorry I didn't tell you about the

surgery but you were worried about

nothing oh you're hardly out of the

woods yeah you still run the risk of

infection a blood clot

a possibility that an inattentive

surgeon let a barn spider lay eggs in

your nose the minute you sneeze web I'm

building out these words but come on no

spider

who are you kidding you were so panicked

Leonard was gonna die you'll never leave

him Sheldon will move out eventually

yeah once he figures out how to work a

door and I'm not overly attached to

Leonard so you were still worried that

he's mastered face started tech lobby

you love me the words a man with the

spider eating its way through his brain

maybe you're a neuroscientist crack his

skull open spray separated there
