I bet on the wrong horse, Betty.

我跟错人了 贝蒂。

Well, they bet on the wrong horse. It's too bad.

很遗憾 他们站错队了。

In full disclosure, the scientific community has bet on the wrong horse before: alchemy, the geocentric model, spontaneous generation, and the interstellar aether are just a few of many theories discarded in favor of better ones.

总而言之，科学家们不是没有做出过错误的判断：炼金术，地心说，无生源说，还有星际以太这些只是被正确理论抛弃的 众多理论中的一小部分。
