Like this one birthday I came home from my cello lesson
就像有一次，正好我生日那天生日，我學大提琴下課回到家，

and I saw a lot of strange cars parked out front.

When I got to the door, I could hear people whispering
我進門后聽到很多人低聲耳語，
and I could smell German chocolate cake,
我還聞到了德式巧克力蛋糕的味道，
which is my favorite.

-Leonard：It turns out my grandfather had died.
結果是我祖父去世了。
-Penny：Oh, my God. That's terrible.

I got to see all my cousins, and there was cake, so...
