Seth and Dad leave
　　Howard: Seth has all the luck.
　　Mom: Seth also listens to his parents when they ask him to do something.
　　Howard: I know I could behave better.
　　Mom: You should be setting a good example for him, not vice-versa! You're the oldest.
　　Howard: Yeah, that is silly of me.
　　Mom: I did get you a little gift though. It's not glamorous, but it will help you sleep.
　　Howard: Really? Let's see! [opens the gift] Pajamas? Oh, Mom! That's not funny!

　　霍華：真的嗎？讓我看看！（打開禮物）睡衣？喔，媽！一點都不好笑！
