on The Big Bang Theory...

00:00:02,302 --> 00:00:04,079
Guess I'm your new neighbor.
Penny.
3
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:05,879
- Oh. Leonard. Sheldon.
- Hi.
4
00:00:05,948 --> 00:00:06,613
- Hi.
- Hi.
5
00:00:06,682 --> 00:00:08,449
- Hi.
- Hi.
6
00:00:08,517 --> 00:00:10,284
That's where I sit.

00:00:14,023 --> 00:00:15,089
Leonard.

Raj?
12
00:00:16,559 --> 00:00:18,270
WOLOWITZ: He speaks English--
he just can't speak to women.
13
00:00:18,294 --> 00:00:20,027
LEONARD:
Our babies will be
14
00:00:20,096 --> 00:00:21,495
smart and beautiful.
15
00:00:21,564 --> 00:00:22,663

Welcome to the premiere episode
of Sheldon Cooper Presents
27
00:00:48,257 --> 00:00:49,656
Fun with Flags.
28
00:00:49,725 --> 00:00:51,725
I'm going up in space.
Technically,
29
00:00:51,794 --> 00:00:53,327
I'm an astronaut.
30
00:00:53,395 --> 00:00:55,596
Oy vey!
31
00:00:56,870 --> 00:00:58,218
You're talking to me.
32
00:00:58,219 --> 00:01:00,619
I am.

Bernadette Maryann
Rostenkowski...
34
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:08,961
We now pronounce you
husband and wife.

00:01:11,532 --> 00:01:12,998
Angry Amy?
38
00:01:13,067 --> 00:01:14,500
I don't want you to say it
39
00:01:14,569 --> 00:01:16,513
just because social convention
dictates that you...
40
00:01:16,537 --> 00:01:17,470
I love you, too.
41
00:01:17,538 --> 00:01:18,871
Will you marry me?
42
00:01:18,940 --> 00:01:20,172
(softly): Yes.
(chuckles)
43
00:01:20,241 --> 00:01:21,340
We did it!
44
00:01:21,409 --> 00:01:23,743
Well, I enjoyed that
more than I thought I would.
45
00:01:25,413 --> 00:01:26,712
I wonder which one's Halley.
46
00:01:26,781 --> 00:01:28,748

WOLOWITZ:
That...
49
00:01:32,787 --> 00:01:35,454
means... positive?
50
00:01:35,523 --> 00:01:38,190
(gasps)
Super asymmetry, that's it!
51
00:01:38,259 --> 00:01:39,825

00:01:42,363 --> 00:01:43,596

PENNY:
Really hope
61
00:01:57,078 --> 00:01:58,340
you're almost to zero.
62
00:01:58,341 --> 00:02:00,846
No, see,
that's the beauty of half-lives:
63
00:02:00,915 --> 00:02:03,182
it's impossible to determine
when you'll arrive at zero.
64
00:02:03,251 --> 00:02:04,583
It's like
"Wheels on the Bus"
65
00:02:04,652 --> 00:02:07,987
if the bus had
an unknowable number of parts.
66
00:02:09,123 --> 00:02:10,434
Yeah, we're gonna need
more coffee.
67
00:02:10,458 --> 00:02:13,225
Yep. I'm with you.
Leonard, coffee?
68
00:02:13,294 --> 00:02:15,928
Black and strong,
like Luke Cage.
69
00:02:15,997 --> 00:02:18,998
I'm too tired
to even be disturbed by that.
70
00:02:19,066 --> 00:02:20,166
Sheldon?
71
00:02:20,234 --> 00:02:21,567
Mm, absolutely not, no.
72
00:02:21,636 --> 00:02:24,403
The Nobel committee will be
making the calls to inform
73
00:02:24,472 --> 00:02:26,939
the winners at any minute,
so the only drug I need
74
00:02:27,008 --> 00:02:28,674
is the endorphins pumping
through my brain
75
00:02:28,743 --> 00:02:30,509
in anticipation of our victory.
76
00:02:30,578 --> 00:02:32,256
Well, technically, anticipation
wouldn't be mediated
77
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,847
by endorphins as much
as dopamine, but, you know,
78
00:02:34,916 --> 00:02:37,550
you've been up all night,
so I'll give you that one.
79
00:02:41,122 --> 00:02:44,089
Really? The second
he stops talking?
80
00:02:44,158 --> 00:02:46,525
Well... should we wake him up?
81
00:02:46,594 --> 00:02:48,661
Well, he did say
if he fell asleep,
82
00:02:48,729 --> 00:02:51,197
we were allowed
to slap him awake.
83
00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:53,866
Oh, boy.
84
00:02:54,969 --> 00:02:56,936
Wait a minute.
Why do you get to do it?
85
00:02:57,004 --> 00:02:57,692
'Cause I called it.
86
00:02:57,716 --> 00:02:59,716
Well, you can't just call it.
You have to earn it.
87
00:02:59,974 --> 00:03:01,373
Oh, and you've earned it?
88
00:03:01,442 --> 00:03:04,777
No one has earned it
more than me.
89
00:03:04,846 --> 00:03:06,679
(Amy clearing throat)
90
00:03:08,816 --> 00:03:11,717
You have your whole life
to smack him around.
91
00:03:11,752 --> 00:03:13,118
This is my time.
92
00:03:14,222 --> 00:03:16,021
Fine. Don't miss.
93
00:03:16,090 --> 00:03:19,325
It's not a volleyball.
I can handle it.
94
00:03:19,393 --> 00:03:20,693
Oh, wait. Hang on.
95
00:03:20,761 --> 00:03:23,262
When you're old, you are
gonna want a record of this.
96
00:03:23,331 --> 00:03:24,396
Oh, oh, yeah.
97
00:03:24,465 --> 00:03:27,466
Do it in slo-mo.
I want to see his cheeks ripple.
98
00:03:29,136 --> 00:03:30,503
Ready... go.
99
00:03:30,571 --> 00:03:32,738

(gasps) It's happening!
100
00:03:32,807 --> 00:03:34,773
Unknown caller.
It's got to be them.
101
00:03:34,842 --> 00:03:36,775
Okay, put it on speaker.
102
00:03:36,844 --> 00:03:38,210
- Hello?
- Hi.
103
00:03:38,279 --> 00:03:40,746
MAN:
Hello. This is Sweden calling.
104
00:03:42,984 --> 00:03:45,284
Is this Dr. Cooper
and Dr. Fowler?
105
00:03:45,353 --> 00:03:46,519
- Yes.
- Yeah.
106
00:03:46,587 --> 00:03:48,354
Congratulations.
107
00:03:48,422 --> 00:03:51,757
It is my pleasure to inform you
that you've won the Nobel Prize
108
00:03:51,826 --> 00:03:53,993
in being suckers...!
109
00:03:57,732 --> 00:04:00,266
His Swedish accent
was very convincing.
110
00:04:02,069 --> 00:04:04,270

(gasps) This is it!
111
00:04:04,338 --> 00:04:06,438
What do you want, Howard?
112
00:04:06,507 --> 00:04:08,440
We were just calling to see
if you'd heard yet.
113
00:04:08,509 --> 00:04:09,608
We haven't.
114
00:04:09,677 --> 00:04:10,797
But thank you for getting up
115
00:04:10,845 --> 00:04:11,777
so early to call.
116
00:04:11,846 --> 00:04:12,945
That was very thoughtful.
117
00:04:13,014 --> 00:04:14,414
Oh, please. We have
two little kids.
118
00:04:14,482 --> 00:04:16,549
We've been up for an hour.
119
00:04:16,617 --> 00:04:18,684
WOLOWITZ:
Did anyone get to slap Sheldon?
120
00:04:18,753 --> 00:04:20,452
No.
121
00:04:20,521 --> 00:04:22,054
Okay, well, call us
when you hear.
122
00:04:22,123 --> 00:04:24,523
All right,
now what?
123
00:04:24,592 --> 00:04:27,192
Oh, why don't we play a game
to pass the time?
124
00:04:27,261 --> 00:04:29,528
Here. Uh, I am thinking
of a number.
125
00:04:29,597 --> 00:04:33,098
Hint: it's a cube of a cube
of a prime.
126
00:04:33,167 --> 00:04:35,067
There's an infinite number
of possibilities.
127
00:04:35,136 --> 00:04:36,569
What, you got somewhere to be?
128
00:04:36,637 --> 00:04:38,203
(ringtone playing)
129
00:04:38,272 --> 00:04:40,806
Oh. That's me.
130
00:04:40,875 --> 00:04:42,241
Hello?
131
00:04:42,310 --> 00:04:44,843
Yes, this is Dr. Fowler.
132
00:04:46,247 --> 00:04:47,279
I see.
133
00:04:48,816 --> 00:04:50,482
Okay, thank you.
134
00:04:53,955 --> 00:04:55,487

138
00:05:06,434 --> 00:05:08,667
- We did it.
-I know.

Prize winners,
177

00:06:44,283 --> 00:06:45,928
Our names are already
linked together forever.
180
00:06:45,952 --> 00:06:47,952
Oh, please. That's
just a piece of paper.
181
00:06:48,020 --> 00:06:50,454
This is a piece of paper
and a medal.
182
00:06:51,490 --> 00:06:52,423
AMY:
It's weird.
183
00:06:52,491 --> 00:06:54,225
I don't really
feel different,
184
00:06:54,293 --> 00:06:56,060
but I guess our lives
will never be the same.
185
00:06:56,128 --> 00:06:59,597
Oh, I don't know. We're
going to work like always.
186
00:06:59,665 --> 00:07:02,333
I still put my pants on
both legs at a time.
187
00:07:02,401 --> 00:07:05,769
One day that's
gonna end very badly.
188
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,073
(reporters shouting)
189
00:07:11,844 --> 00:07:13,611
Congratulations.
How does it feel?
190
00:07:13,679 --> 00:07:16,146
Okay, w-we're happy
to answer your questions,
191
00:07:16,215 --> 00:07:17,815
Just, um,
one at a time, please?
192
00:07:17,883 --> 00:07:19,250
REPORTER:
Dr. Cooper!
193
00:07:21,587 --> 00:07:22,786
Is Dr. Cooper coming back?
194
00:07:22,855 --> 00:07:25,055
No. Next question.
195
00:07:25,124 --> 00:07:26,657
(reporters shouting)
196
00:07:28,127 --> 00:07:30,928
Was it your left hand
or your right hand?
197
00:07:31,998 --> 00:07:33,464
Right.
198
00:07:33,532 --> 00:07:36,300
Spit actually flew
out of his mouth.
199
00:07:36,369 --> 00:07:38,369
SIEBERT:
Hey, fellas.
200
00:07:39,805 --> 00:07:41,372
Can you do me a favor?
201
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:42,539
Do we have a choice?
202
00:07:42,608 --> 00:07:43,608
Ha-ha!
203
00:07:43,643 --> 00:07:44,708
No.
204
00:07:44,777 --> 00:07:46,443
Sheldon and Amy
205
00:07:46,512 --> 00:07:48,223
are now officially superstars,
and the press
206
00:07:48,247 --> 00:07:50,914
will be reaching out to their
family and friends for comment.
207
00:07:50,983 --> 00:07:53,183
So that we're all
on the same page,
208
00:07:53,252 --> 00:07:56,453
the word we're gonna use
to describe them is "quirky."
209
00:07:56,522 --> 00:07:58,922
And not quirky.
More like quirky.
210
00:07:58,991 --> 00:08:00,924
So not Mr. and Mrs.
Wackadoodle?
211
00:08:00,993 --> 00:08:02,092
SIEBERT:
Ho-ho-ho!
212
00:08:02,161 --> 00:08:06,163
You bitter, envious little man.
213
00:08:10,870 --> 00:08:12,803
Thank you so much.
214
00:08:17,276 --> 00:08:18,876
And what do we call that?
215
00:08:18,944 --> 00:08:20,678
- Quirky. - Quirky.
- Quirky.
216
00:08:23,316 --> 00:08:26,150
Dr. Cooper, can I get
a minute of your time?
217
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:28,952
Hello?
218
00:08:29,021 --> 00:08:30,087
Hey.
219
00:08:30,122 --> 00:08:31,400
- Can I help you?
- Uh, yeah, actually.
220
00:08:31,424 --> 00:08:32,990
Um, I had an appointment
221
00:08:33,059 --> 00:08:35,225
to interview Dr. Cooper
about the Nobel.
222
00:08:35,261 --> 00:08:36,560
Hang on a second.
223
00:08:36,629 --> 00:08:37,629
Sheldon?
224
00:08:45,104 --> 00:08:47,237
Sorry, he's not here.
225
00:08:47,306 --> 00:08:49,440
Damn. I've got a deadline.
226
00:08:49,508 --> 00:08:52,009
I don't know
if it helps you at all,
227
00:08:52,078 --> 00:08:55,546
but I'm his best friend
in the whole world.
228
00:08:55,614 --> 00:08:56,914
Really?
229
00:08:56,982 --> 00:08:58,827
And an astronaut. Come on,
you can buy me a cup of coffee,
230
00:08:58,851 --> 00:09:01,318
and I'll tell
you about both.
231
00:09:02,722 --> 00:09:04,655
(Amy sobbing)
232
00:09:09,528 --> 00:09:11,562
Everyone okay in there?
233
00:09:11,630 --> 00:09:12,996
Go away!
234
00:09:13,065 --> 00:09:14,798
Amy?
235
00:09:14,867 --> 00:09:17,401
Raj, please, not now.
236
00:09:17,470 --> 00:09:20,003
Hey, what's wrong?
237
00:09:20,072 --> 00:09:21,505
My picture's
all over the Internet,
238
00:09:21,574 --> 00:09:23,240
and I look terrible.
239
00:09:23,309 --> 00:09:24,908
No. Let me see.
240
00:09:24,977 --> 00:09:28,045
Well, that is
an unfortunate angle.
241
00:09:28,114 --> 00:09:30,147
But who cares?
242
00:09:30,216 --> 00:09:31,448
You just won the Nobel.
243
00:09:31,517 --> 00:09:33,550
You should be proud
of this moment.
244
00:09:33,619 --> 00:09:35,319
I know I shouldn't care
about how I look,
245
00:09:35,388 --> 00:09:36,820
and I never thought I did.
246
00:09:36,889 --> 00:09:40,190
It-It's stupid and shallow,
but I just can't help it.
247
00:09:40,259 --> 00:09:42,693
Am I really this frumpy?
248
00:09:42,762 --> 00:09:45,963
No. No, you are
a beautiful woman.
249
00:09:46,031 --> 00:09:47,831
By the way,
if you're not happy
250
00:09:47,900 --> 00:09:49,967
with those pictures,
then make some changes.
251
00:09:50,035 --> 00:09:52,436
Get a haircut, new clothes,
252
00:09:52,505 --> 00:09:54,438
new glasses, big glasses...
253
00:09:54,507 --> 00:09:57,107
No glasses-- then you won't
be able to see those pictures.
254
00:09:58,210 --> 00:10:00,043
Sounds expensive.
255
00:10:00,112 --> 00:10:02,613
Excuse me,
i-if I'm not mistaken,
256
00:10:02,681 --> 00:10:05,416
the Nobel comes with
a substantial cash prize.
257
00:10:05,484 --> 00:10:07,117
What were you gonna
spend it on?
258
00:10:07,186 --> 00:10:09,453
Hadn't really
thought about it.
259
00:10:09,522 --> 00:10:13,290
Sheldon's got his eyes
on some new Dockers.
260
00:10:13,359 --> 00:10:16,627
Come on.
Do something for yourself.
261
00:10:16,695 --> 00:10:19,296
Well, I suppose
I could get a haircut.
262
00:10:19,365 --> 00:10:22,900
And some makeup
and a new wardrobe
263
00:10:22,968 --> 00:10:25,035
and a little thank you gift
for your shopping buddy
264
00:10:25,104 --> 00:10:26,804
if we see something
he likes. Come on.
265
00:10:26,872 --> 00:10:28,372
Where are we going?
266
00:10:28,441 --> 00:10:31,475
Beverly Hills,
where the things he likes are.
267
00:10:34,914 --> 00:10:36,180
Dinner ready?
268
00:10:36,248 --> 00:10:38,182
Not unless you cooked.
269
00:10:40,219 --> 00:10:43,587
Why is this article
about Sheldon all about you?
270
00:10:45,391 --> 00:10:46,323
Let me see.
271
00:10:46,392 --> 00:10:49,626
Oh, good, they used
my NASA picture.
272
00:10:49,695 --> 00:10:52,896
Why does it say that
you're his best friend?
273
00:10:52,965 --> 00:10:54,164
Leonard's his best friend.
274
00:10:54,233 --> 00:10:55,732
No. Leonard
has always been
275
00:10:55,801 --> 00:10:57,868
kind of a monkey butler.
276
00:10:57,937 --> 00:10:59,903
Whenever Sheldon
got into a scrape,
277
00:10:59,972 --> 00:11:01,839
I was his go-to guy.
278
00:11:01,907 --> 00:11:03,173
(chuckles)
279
00:11:03,242 --> 00:11:04,541
When did he get
into a scrape?
280
00:11:04,610 --> 00:11:06,410
You're kidding, right?
281
00:11:06,479 --> 00:11:07,923
W-- Remember
when he had a panic attack
282
00:11:07,947 --> 00:11:09,524
'cause his hand got stuck
in a jar of olives?
283
00:11:09,548 --> 00:11:13,217
I was the one who told him
to let go of the olives.
284
00:11:14,553 --> 00:11:17,688
Please, that doesn't
make you his best friend.
285
00:11:17,756 --> 00:11:19,022
(chuckles)
286
00:11:19,091 --> 00:11:21,091
You know,
that reporter asked me
287
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,427
if I could put him in touch
with...
288
00:11:23,496 --> 00:11:24,995
Amy's best friend.
289
00:11:25,064 --> 00:11:26,096
That's Penny.
290
00:11:26,165 --> 00:11:28,332
(singsongy):
Doesn't have to be.
291
00:11:32,671 --> 00:11:34,304
Hmm.
292
00:11:34,373 --> 00:11:36,940
What kind of tea
is appropriate
293
00:11:37,009 --> 00:11:39,843
for winning a Nobel Prize
and now everything is changing
294
00:11:39,912 --> 00:11:43,413
and you feel unmoored
from reality?
295
00:11:43,482 --> 00:11:46,116
I don't know. Earl Grey?
296
00:11:46,185 --> 00:11:47,384
You know,
297
00:11:47,453 --> 00:11:49,453
this is something
I've wanted my whole life.
298
00:11:49,522 --> 00:11:50,921
But I guess I never considered
299
00:11:50,990 --> 00:11:52,456
how everything
would be different.
300
00:11:52,525 --> 00:11:55,058
Buddy, I-I know it all feels
overwhelming right now,
301
00:11:55,127 --> 00:11:57,060
but I promise you,
things will settle down.
302
00:11:57,129 --> 00:11:58,061
There's no Earl Grey!
303
00:11:58,130 --> 00:11:59,730
You filthy liar!
304
00:11:59,798 --> 00:12:01,632
(knocking at door)
305
00:12:01,700 --> 00:12:03,634
Hey, is Penny here?
306
00:12:03,702 --> 00:12:04,702
No. Why?
307
00:12:04,770 --> 00:12:05,903
I wanted to show her
308
00:12:05,971 --> 00:12:07,037
my latest creation.
309
00:12:07,106 --> 00:12:08,572
I give you...
310
00:12:08,641 --> 00:12:11,508
Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler.
311
00:12:18,517 --> 00:12:20,384
Wow. Amy, you
look amazing.
312
00:12:20,452 --> 00:12:21,752
Thank you.
313
00:12:21,787 --> 00:12:24,588
Sheldon, what do you think?
314
00:12:29,128 --> 00:12:31,461
I like you better
the way you were.
315
00:12:31,530 --> 00:12:34,665
But she looks
beautiful!
316
00:12:34,733 --> 00:12:36,667
Classic lines,
317
00:12:36,735 --> 00:12:38,046
colors that complement
her skin tone,
318
00:12:38,070 --> 00:12:42,005
and hair that goes from "office"
to "on the town" in minutes.
319
00:12:44,209 --> 00:12:46,577
I don't care.
Put it back.
320
00:12:46,645 --> 00:12:48,679
I like the way I look.
321
00:12:48,747 --> 00:12:51,081
Well, I don't!
322
00:12:51,150 --> 00:12:52,416
(door opens)
323
00:12:52,484 --> 00:12:54,084
My fault.
I was out of Earl Grey.
324
00:12:54,153 --> 00:12:55,419
(clears throat)
325
00:12:57,489 --> 00:12:59,323
Sheldon, that was really rude.
326
00:12:59,391 --> 00:13:01,959
I'm sorry. Amy is
the one constant I can count on,
327
00:13:02,027 --> 00:13:03,594
and now she's changing.
328
00:13:03,662 --> 00:13:05,429
It's just a haircut
and some clothes.
329
00:13:05,497 --> 00:13:06,697
No, it's
the last straw!
330
00:13:06,765 --> 00:13:09,099
I can't take any more!
331
00:13:09,168 --> 00:13:11,101
(elevator bell dings)
332
00:13:16,241 --> 00:13:17,507
Can you believe it?
333
00:13:17,576 --> 00:13:18,856
They finally fixed the elevator.
334
00:13:25,216 --> 00:13:27,249
This is
a nightmare.
335
00:13:27,627 --> 00:13:28,557
What's with him?
336
00:13:28,558 --> 00:13:30,791
He won a Nobel Prize,
and his wife looks amazing.
337
00:13:30,860 --> 00:13:33,360
Oh. Yeah, got it.
338
00:13:33,429 --> 00:13:35,362
(panting)
339
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:43,074
Advertise your product or brand here
contact www.OpenSubtitles.org today
340
00:13:48,444 --> 00:13:50,377
(gasping, panting)
341
00:13:53,282 --> 00:13:54,948
How did you get down here?
342
00:13:55,017 --> 00:13:56,683
The elevator. It's really fast.
343
00:13:58,521 --> 00:13:59,853
I-I need to be alone right now.
344
00:13:59,922 --> 00:14:00,854
Don't try to follow me.
345
00:14:00,923 --> 00:14:01,855
All right.
You need a ride?
346
00:14:01,924 --> 00:14:04,491
That'd be great.
Thank you.
347
00:14:05,928 --> 00:14:07,861
I should've seen this coming.
348
00:14:07,930 --> 00:14:09,963
Oh, stop. You're allowed
to get a haircut.
349
00:14:10,032 --> 00:14:11,032
I know.
350
00:14:11,066 --> 00:14:13,000
But I should've done it
gradually.
351
00:14:13,068 --> 00:14:16,603
You know, like...
352
00:14:16,672 --> 00:14:20,774
maybe 300 tiny haircuts
over a ten-year period.
353
00:14:21,977 --> 00:14:24,645
Okay, you need to
focus on the positive.
354
00:14:24,713 --> 00:14:26,847
You won a Nobel Prize.
355
00:14:26,916 --> 00:14:28,048
I slapped Sheldon.
356
00:14:28,117 --> 00:14:30,851
A lot of dreams
came true today.
357
00:14:31,887 --> 00:14:34,021
You know, you're right.
358
00:14:34,089 --> 00:14:35,956
This is a huge day for me,
359
00:14:36,025 --> 00:14:37,558
and I'm allowed to enjoy it
360
00:14:37,626 --> 00:14:40,260
without worrying how
it's going to affect my husband.
361
00:14:40,329 --> 00:14:41,862
Is it me
362
00:14:41,931 --> 00:14:45,199
or did it just
get fierce in here?
363
00:14:48,437 --> 00:14:51,505
All this change
is just too much.
364
00:14:51,574 --> 00:14:53,607
The reporters,
365
00:14:53,676 --> 00:14:54,875
the attention at work,
366
00:14:54,944 --> 00:14:56,543
and now even Amy's changed.
367
00:14:56,612 --> 00:14:58,078
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
368
00:14:58,147 --> 00:14:59,913
- Slow down.
- I'm playing a drinking game.
369
00:14:59,982 --> 00:15:01,448
Every time you say
the word "change,"
370
00:15:01,517 --> 00:15:03,750
I take a slug.
371
00:15:03,819 --> 00:15:06,286
Are you gonna be able
to drive me home?
372
00:15:06,355 --> 00:15:08,288
Mm. Not unless you
change the subject.
373
00:15:08,357 --> 00:15:10,624
Huh. Now I said it.
374
00:15:10,693 --> 00:15:12,626
Meh. Hmm.
375
00:15:15,965 --> 00:15:17,742
You know, you're the
only person who could win
376
00:15:17,766 --> 00:15:20,567
the biggest prize in science
and still be upset about it.
377
00:15:20,636 --> 00:15:21,735
It's just...
378
00:15:21,804 --> 00:15:23,737
all the times
I thought about winning,
379
00:15:23,806 --> 00:15:25,372
I never thought
about how it would ch--
380
00:15:25,441 --> 00:15:28,208
affect my life.
381
00:15:29,645 --> 00:15:31,878
I'm sorry, I'm genuinely
concerned about your liver.
382
00:15:31,947 --> 00:15:33,080
(chuckles):
Okay.
383
00:15:33,148 --> 00:15:35,882
Fine, I'll stop playing.
384
00:15:35,951 --> 00:15:38,263
You know, you go on and on about
wanting things to stay the same,
385
00:15:38,287 --> 00:15:40,487
but you've changed a
lot since I met you.
386
00:15:40,556 --> 00:15:43,423
Oh, you are a mean drunk.
387
00:15:43,492 --> 00:15:44,691
I'm serious.
388
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,426
You have a ton of friends,
389
00:15:46,495 --> 00:15:49,096
you got married, moved
into a new apartment,
390
00:15:49,164 --> 00:15:51,365
you wore a baseball
hat that one time.
391
00:15:51,433 --> 00:15:55,969
Heck, you've had sex almost as
many times as I have fingers.
392
00:15:57,306 --> 00:15:58,238
More.
393
00:15:58,307 --> 00:15:59,239
W...
394
00:15:59,308 --> 00:16:00,907
By this many.
395
00:16:00,976 --> 00:16:02,576
You dog!
396
00:16:02,645 --> 00:16:03,722
It was the Avengers trailer.
397
00:16:03,746 --> 00:16:04,678
Oh.
398
00:16:04,747 --> 00:16:06,079
Mm-hmm.
399
00:16:06,148 --> 00:16:07,726
You know, I've grown, too.
I used to be the bartender
400
00:16:07,750 --> 00:16:09,316
back there.
- That's true.
401
00:16:09,385 --> 00:16:11,029
And now there is
a completely different woman
402
00:16:11,053 --> 00:16:12,719
who botched my drink order.
403
00:16:12,788 --> 00:16:15,589
How hard is 65% Coke,
35% Diet Coke?
404
00:16:16,692 --> 00:16:18,458
Well, judging
by the look on her face,
405
00:16:18,527 --> 00:16:20,794
it's at least
one percent saliva.
406
00:16:24,733 --> 00:16:26,066
I do take your point.
407
00:16:26,135 --> 00:16:27,467
You know,
you're also married,
408
00:16:27,536 --> 00:16:30,203
you have a successful career,
you no longer dress
409
00:16:30,272 --> 00:16:34,174
like you're trying
to attract sailors by the wharf.
410
00:16:34,243 --> 00:16:37,644
So, I guess the only thing
that actually stays the same
411
00:16:37,713 --> 00:16:39,780
is that things are
always changing.
412
00:16:40,883 --> 00:16:42,949
Interesting.
413
00:16:43,018 --> 00:16:46,553
So you're saying
the inevitability of change
414
00:16:46,622 --> 00:16:49,022
might be
a universal constant.
415
00:16:49,091 --> 00:16:52,859
Well, there's a little more to
it than that, but, yeah, sure.
416
00:16:52,928 --> 00:16:55,696
Oh. Hey, look,
that's Bernadette.
417
00:16:55,764 --> 00:16:59,900
I can't tell you how many times
Dr. Fowler was gonna give up
418
00:16:59,968 --> 00:17:00,968
and I would say to her,
419
00:17:01,036 --> 00:17:03,337
"Amy, as your best friend,
420
00:17:03,372 --> 00:17:05,372
I'm not gonna let you quit."
421
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:07,841
Okay, I'm drinking again.
422
00:17:07,910 --> 00:17:09,142
I'll join you.
Waitress,
423
00:17:09,211 --> 00:17:11,912
uh, 95% Hawaiian Punch,
five percent vodka.
424
00:17:11,980 --> 00:17:12,913
WOLOWITZ:
Let me tell you about the time
425
00:17:12,981 --> 00:17:14,981
Mr. Nobel Laureate
wanted olives...
426
00:17:15,050 --> 00:17:17,484
(laughs)
This is a good one.
427
00:17:17,553 --> 00:17:19,353
You know what, 90/10!
428
00:17:22,624 --> 00:17:25,359
You know, I like
the way my hair looks.
429
00:17:25,427 --> 00:17:27,394
I'm done tiptoeing
around him.
430
00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:28,729
We're all guilty of it.
431
00:17:28,797 --> 00:17:30,530
But why?
432
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:31,998
'Cause we were afraid
to upset him.
433
00:17:32,067 --> 00:17:32,999
Which happens anyway.
434
00:17:33,068 --> 00:17:34,868
Well, that's over.
435
00:17:34,937 --> 00:17:36,837
I'm-I'm done enabling him.
Like,
436
00:17:36,905 --> 00:17:37,905
this is his spot
437
00:17:37,973 --> 00:17:40,741
and-and the thermostat
has to be set
438
00:17:40,809 --> 00:17:42,209
to his comfort level,
439
00:17:42,277 --> 00:17:43,621
even though he doesn't
even live here anymore
440
00:17:43,645 --> 00:17:46,513
and I'm always chilly.
441
00:17:47,616 --> 00:17:51,184
Is that why you wear
a hoodie all the time?
442
00:17:52,287 --> 00:17:54,788
Why would-- Yes!
443
00:17:54,857 --> 00:17:57,391
To accommodate
Sheldon!
444
00:17:57,459 --> 00:17:58,859
And what-what
about this-this thing?
445
00:17:58,894 --> 00:18:01,094
Why is it here?
I'll tell you why.
446
00:18:01,163 --> 00:18:02,474
Because it was here
when I moved in,
447
00:18:02,498 --> 00:18:04,097
and, for no earthly reason,
448
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:06,566
he forbade me to touch it.
449
00:18:06,635 --> 00:18:07,768
Well, if you don't like it,
450
00:18:07,836 --> 00:18:09,269
get rid of it.
451
00:18:09,338 --> 00:18:11,071
Put it in the closet.
452
00:18:11,140 --> 00:18:13,140
You know what,
453
00:18:13,208 --> 00:18:15,509
I will.
454
00:18:22,117 --> 00:18:25,018
I bet that's the reason.
455
00:18:31,393 --> 00:18:33,326
Hang on.
456
00:18:37,533 --> 00:18:38,465
What do you think?
457
00:18:38,534 --> 00:18:39,534
Want to give it a try?
458
00:18:39,568 --> 00:18:41,501
(elevator bell dings)
459
00:18:53,482 --> 00:18:54,748
Well, you know,
460
00:18:54,817 --> 00:18:57,551
the elevator did work
when I moved into the building.
461
00:18:57,619 --> 00:19:00,554
So going up and down the stairs
was a change,
462
00:19:00,622 --> 00:19:03,957
which means this would actually
be a return to the status quo.
463
00:19:04,026 --> 00:19:05,546
- But, conversely, I think...
- Get in!
464
00:19:12,367 --> 00:19:14,768
SHELDON:
This is wild.
465
00:19:18,042 --> 00:19:22,742
== sync, corrected by elderman ==
@elder_man
466
00:19:22,766 --> 00:19:24,065
Carbon.
467
00:19:26,636 --> 00:19:27,936
Hydrogen.
468
00:19:30,373 --> 00:19:31,906
Carbon.
469
00:19:33,844 --> 00:19:35,176
Carbon.
470
00:19:36,747 --> 00:19:38,146
And last but not least,
471
00:19:38,215 --> 00:19:39,414
carbon.
472
00:19:40,884 --> 00:19:42,717
This might be the glue talking,
473
00:19:42,786 --> 00:19:46,454
but that was a very pleasurable
139 and a half hours.
474
00:19:46,523 --> 00:19:47,523
Agreed.
475
00:19:47,557 --> 00:19:49,657
What kind of DNA
is this, anyway?
476
00:19:49,726 --> 00:19:51,659
I was trying to design
the genetic code
477
00:19:51,728 --> 00:19:53,661
of an advanced race
of human being.
478
00:19:53,730 --> 00:19:55,414
One of my rare failures,
actually.
479
00:19:55,438 --> 00:19:56,265
What went wrong?
480
00:19:56,266 --> 00:19:59,067
The balls kept
sticking to my pants.
481
00:19:59,136 --> 00:20:02,203
Let's just let it dry.
482
00:20:02,272 --> 00:20:03,671
- Hi. - Hello.
- Hey, babe.
483
00:20:03,740 --> 00:20:05,017
Oh, don't slam the...
Don't slam the...
484
00:20:05,041 --> 00:20:06,074
(gasps)
485
00:20:09,312 --> 00:20:11,546
That was exhilarating.
486
00:20:12,949 --> 00:20:14,716
- You pick up your dresses?
AMY: Yep.
487
00:20:14,785 --> 00:20:17,185
The tailor had to take mine in
and let Penny's out.
488
00:20:17,254 --> 00:20:19,220
Best day of my life.
489
00:20:20,590 --> 00:20:22,724
What about the day you met me?
490
00:20:22,793 --> 00:20:25,627
I stand by my statement.
491
00:20:25,695 --> 00:20:27,562
Well, thank you guys so much
for the clothes
492
00:20:27,631 --> 00:20:28,997
and the shoes,
the plane tickets.
493
00:20:29,065 --> 00:20:30,365
You've been so generous.
494
00:20:30,433 --> 00:20:32,044
Well, it's important
that all of our friends
495
00:20:32,068 --> 00:20:33,535
get to share
this moment with us.
496
00:20:33,603 --> 00:20:35,470
And then for years to come,
you can tell others
497
00:20:35,539 --> 00:20:36,883
you had a front-row
seat to history.
498
00:20:36,907 --> 00:20:37,972
Although, technically,
499
00:20:38,041 --> 00:20:41,075
I think your seats are
in the second row.
500
00:20:41,144 --> 00:20:43,878
Do you want to go back to the apartment
and see me try on my dress?
501
00:20:43,914 --> 00:20:46,192
Shouldn't I see it for the first
time at the Nobel ceremony?
502
00:20:46,216 --> 00:20:47,615
It's not a wedding.
503
00:20:47,684 --> 00:20:48,995
Okay. Well, give me
a minute to think
504
00:20:49,019 --> 00:20:50,619
of another reason I
don't want to see it.
505
00:20:51,788 --> 00:20:53,833
How about this-- you can
practice your acceptance speech
506
00:20:53,857 --> 00:20:55,223
while I try on the dress.
507
00:20:55,292 --> 00:20:58,793
Ah, great. You can help me
whittle it down to 90 minutes.
508
00:21:03,667 --> 00:21:06,201
Was Amy suspicious when
they had to let your dress out?
509
00:21:06,269 --> 00:21:09,904
No. She was so happy,
she didn't even question it.
510
00:21:09,973 --> 00:21:12,110
Someone's gonna figure it out.
Why don't we just tell people?
511
00:21:12,134 --> 00:21:13,008
No, it's too early.
512
00:21:13,009 --> 00:21:14,059
I haven't even wrapped
my head around it.
513
00:21:14,060 --> 00:21:17,212
- I have. My head is wrapped.
- Yeah, well...
514
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,782
if something else had been wrapped,
we wouldn't be in this situation.
515
00:21:20,851 --> 00:21:24,686
Excuse me, but if I recall, you're the one
who went out drinking with Sheldon,
516
00:21:24,754 --> 00:21:26,387
then came home and attacked me.
517
00:21:26,456 --> 00:21:28,957
Attacked you? I said,
"Do you wanna?"
518
00:21:29,025 --> 00:21:30,425
Yeah.
519
00:21:30,493 --> 00:21:33,194
- I was helpless.
-Uh-huh.
520
00:21:33,263 --> 00:21:34,963
So...
521
00:21:35,031 --> 00:21:38,166
(laughs):
do you wanna?
522
00:21:38,235 --> 00:21:40,568
- Well, I can't get more pregnant.
- Mm-hmm.
523
00:21:40,637 --> 00:21:41,204
We'll see about that.

Now, Michael, Mommy and Daddy
535
00:22:08,751 --> 00:22:10,518
are going away
for a couple days,
536
00:22:10,587 --> 00:22:12,131
so if you're gonna say
your first words,
537
00:22:12,155 --> 00:22:14,689
you got to do it now
or wait till we get back.

WOLOWITZ:
Somebody just peed
539
00:22:18,795 --> 00:22:20,761
in the big girl potty.

BERNADETTE:
Oh, I'm so proud!
541
00:22:22,832 --> 00:22:24,665
It was her, right?
542
00:22:24,734 --> 00:22:25,867
Yes.
543
00:22:25,935 --> 00:22:28,169
You still feel good
about leaving them
544
00:22:28,238 --> 00:22:30,972
with Stuart and Denise
for a couple days?
545
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,342
I guess. I just hope we don't
miss Michael's first words.
546
00:22:34,410 --> 00:22:36,410
Or Stuart's last words.
547
00:22:36,479 --> 00:22:38,312
You realize it's been years
548
00:22:38,381 --> 00:22:40,882
since we've got away
just the two of us.
549
00:22:40,950 --> 00:22:43,151
I know. I can't wait.
550
00:22:43,219 --> 00:22:46,154
Fancy hotel room.
The big bed.
551
00:22:46,222 --> 00:22:49,824
Yeah. We're gonna
sleep our asses off.
552
00:22:53,029 --> 00:22:54,729
You really think walking her
553
00:22:54,797 --> 00:22:56,497
is gonna help me meet girls?
554
00:22:56,566 --> 00:22:58,599
Cinnamon is chick bait.
555
00:22:58,668 --> 00:23:00,501
Good. 'Cause I'm not.
556
00:23:00,570 --> 00:23:01,903
Just remember,
557
00:23:01,971 --> 00:23:03,771
you're in charge.
558
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,473
Don't let her pull you.
559
00:23:07,310 --> 00:23:11,179
That seems like
an unnecessary thing to say.
560
00:23:11,247 --> 00:23:14,081
And please, if you have
any problems, any questions,
561
00:23:14,150 --> 00:23:15,650
call me immediately, okay?
562
00:23:15,718 --> 00:23:17,618
She's my baby.
563
00:23:17,687 --> 00:23:19,687
It shouldn't come up,
but just in case:
564
00:23:19,756 --> 00:23:22,890
where could I buy a dog
that looks exactly like her?
565
00:23:24,527 --> 00:23:27,261
Kidding. If she dies,
I'll just tell you.
566
00:23:29,699 --> 00:23:30,898
Ready?
567
00:23:30,967 --> 00:23:32,333
Oh. Hang on.
568
00:23:35,705 --> 00:23:37,305

Sheldon, Sheldon.
Why are you talking so fast?
576
00:23:49,185 --> 00:23:51,953
I'm trying to get my speech
down to 90 minutes.
577
00:23:52,021 --> 00:23:54,855
Nobody's gonna be able to
understand a word you're saying.

Welcome to my life.
579
00:23:57,293 --> 00:23:59,694
I think you need
to do some editing,
580
00:23:59,762 --> 00:24:02,330
like maybe cut out all
that stuff about your childhood.
581
00:24:02,398 --> 00:24:05,266
Are you kidding? Growing up
in the backwoods of East Texas
582
00:24:05,335 --> 00:24:08,836
is what makes me warm
and relatable.
583
00:24:08,905 --> 00:24:10,238
Well, what about all these pages
584
00:24:10,306 --> 00:24:12,406
calling out everyone
who said you wouldn't succeed?
585
00:24:12,475 --> 00:24:14,542
I told them all
they would rue the day.
586
00:24:14,611 --> 00:24:17,411
How is it gonna make me look
if the day finally comes,
587
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,080
and they're not filled with rue?
588
00:24:19,148 --> 00:24:21,816
Sheldon, this isn't about ruing.
589
00:24:21,884 --> 00:24:23,551
This is about...
590
00:24:23,620 --> 00:24:25,820
humbly accepting
a great honor.
591
00:24:25,888 --> 00:24:28,556
Amy, we won the Nobel
Prize in Physics.
592
00:24:28,625 --> 00:24:31,459
Humility is for people
who win the goofy Nobels
593
00:24:31,527 --> 00:24:34,729
like Literature,
Economics and Peace.
594
00:24:34,797 --> 00:24:37,331
Please tell me that's
not in your speech.
595
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,801
Oh. I can cut it,
but it's the only joke I have.

All right, bagels down.
Before we head to the airport,
597
00:24:46,976 --> 00:24:48,309
I'd like to go over
a few things.

599
00:24:50,079 --> 00:24:52,380

step off the plane,
600
00:24:52,448 --> 00:24:54,849
each and every one of you
is an ambassador
601
00:24:54,917 --> 00:24:56,350
for Amy and myself.
602
00:24:56,419 --> 00:24:59,120
(quietly): I told you
these tickets weren't free.
603
00:24:59,188 --> 00:25:02,690
As such, your behavior must
reflect the highest standards.
604
00:25:02,759 --> 00:25:05,559
Uh, Raj. Bagel down.
605
00:25:05,628 --> 00:25:09,397
If my blood sugar drops
and I get bitchy, it's on you.
606
00:25:09,465 --> 00:25:11,299

kick us off.

Well done. You know,
you're proving to be

00:27:08,651 --> 00:27:11,385
an invaluable part
of my entourage.
656
00:27:11,454 --> 00:27:12,653

- Fine. Why?
659
00:27:28,271 --> 00:27:31,338
Well, this is the furthest we've
ever been away from the kids.
660
00:27:31,407 --> 00:27:34,008
I was just checking to see
if you're okay.
661
00:27:34,076 --> 00:27:37,344
I'm on my second Jack Reacher.
I'm doing great.

Good. Me, too.
663
00:27:38,681 --> 00:27:40,014
I was just looking
at the map.
664
00:27:40,082 --> 00:27:41,482
Couldn't help
thinking: we're here
665
00:27:41,551 --> 00:27:44,185
and they're there, and
if anything happened,
666
00:27:44,253 --> 00:27:47,888
we'd have to go here to get
all the way back there.
667
00:27:47,957 --> 00:27:49,890
Why are you trying
to freak me out?
668
00:27:49,959 --> 00:27:51,025
This is our vacation.
669
00:27:51,093 --> 00:27:54,161
I thought we should
do things together.
670
00:27:54,230 --> 00:27:56,197
Howard, the kids are okay.
671
00:27:56,265 --> 00:27:57,198
How do you know that?
672
00:27:57,266 --> 00:27:59,633
I just know.
A mother knows.
673
00:27:59,702 --> 00:28:03,037
So what,
now the Force is with you?
674
00:28:03,105 --> 00:28:04,438
Let's see.
675
00:28:04,507 --> 00:28:07,608
This is not the woman
you want to annoy.
676
00:28:09,479 --> 00:28:11,312
- Howard. Howard.
- What?
677
00:28:11,380 --> 00:28:14,048
You see the woman
sitting next to me?
678
00:28:14,116 --> 00:28:15,549
What about her?
679
00:28:15,618 --> 00:28:17,151
Is this her?
680
00:28:18,788 --> 00:28:21,288
Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
681
00:28:21,357 --> 00:28:22,957
Shh! Be cool.
682
00:28:25,027 --> 00:28:27,194
- No, that's not her.
- Okay.
683
00:28:27,263 --> 00:28:29,196
How about now?
684
00:28:32,869 --> 00:28:34,535
Uh-oh.
685
00:28:39,742 --> 00:28:42,109
That's the fourth time
she's been to the bathroom
686
00:28:42,178 --> 00:28:43,744
in the last two hours.
687
00:28:43,813 --> 00:28:45,579
So?
688
00:28:45,648 --> 00:28:48,749
Her breakfast was binding.
I made sure of that.
689
00:28:49,819 --> 00:28:52,219
- So?
- So she clearly has
690
00:28:52,288 --> 00:28:53,721
some sort of
stomach distress.
691
00:28:53,789 --> 00:28:55,589
If it's viral, we're
all susceptible.
692
00:28:55,658 --> 00:28:57,491
She's probably just airsick.
693
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,360
Yeah, but what
if she's not?
694
00:28:59,428 --> 00:29:00,828
What if we get
what she has?
695
00:29:00,897 --> 00:29:02,830
What if we infect
the King of Sweden?
696
00:29:02,899 --> 00:29:04,465
That's how wars start.
697
00:29:10,072 --> 00:29:13,307
All right, that's it, this is Outbreak
and she's the monkey.
698
00:29:14,610 --> 00:29:15,976
(quietly):
Wait. Stop.
699
00:29:16,045 --> 00:29:18,712
Be reasonable.
700
00:29:18,781 --> 00:29:20,247
Leonard...
701
00:29:20,316 --> 00:29:22,616
we need to do something
about your wife.
702
00:29:22,685 --> 00:29:24,229
- What's the matter?
- She is clearly sick,
703
00:29:24,253 --> 00:29:25,388
and she's gonna take us
all down with her.
704
00:29:25,412 --> 00:29:26,988
She's not sick, Sheldon.
705
00:29:26,989 --> 00:29:28,355
She is, and I'm
gonna catch it,
706
00:29:28,424 --> 00:29:30,457
and it's gonna ruin
the greatest day of my life.
707
00:29:30,526 --> 00:29:33,360
I promise you're not going
to get what she has.
708
00:29:33,429 --> 00:29:34,495
What's going on?
709
00:29:34,564 --> 00:29:36,530
(gasps)
Unclean! Unclean!
710
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:38,065
What?
711
00:29:38,134 --> 00:29:39,633
He thinks you're sick.
712
00:29:39,702 --> 00:29:41,035
Oh.
713
00:29:41,103 --> 00:29:42,836
Should we tell him?
714
00:29:42,905 --> 00:29:44,371
Well, if we don't,
he might try
715
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,760
and jump out of the plane.
- Yeah.
716
00:29:45,808 --> 00:29:47,308
Doesn't answer my question.
717
00:29:47,376 --> 00:29:49,810
Tell me what?
718
00:29:49,879 --> 00:29:52,413
(sighs)
I'm pregnant, Sheldon.
719
00:29:52,481 --> 00:29:54,782
You're right,
I can't catch that.
720
00:29:58,387 --> 00:29:59,653
(groans)
721
00:29:59,722 --> 00:30:01,021
Good news, Amy.
722
00:30:01,090 --> 00:30:02,556
She's just pregnant.
723
00:30:08,904 --> 00:30:10,637
Are you kidding me?
724
00:30:10,705 --> 00:30:13,606
You just found out that a woman
who has loved and cared for you
725
00:30:13,675 --> 00:30:16,409
for 12 years is pregnant,
and all you can say is
726
00:30:16,478 --> 00:30:18,745
you're relieved that she's
not gonna get you sick?
727
00:30:18,814 --> 00:30:20,814
There's no need
for a recap.
728
00:30:20,882 --> 00:30:22,248
I was there.
729
00:30:23,985 --> 00:30:26,686
- Why didn't you tell me?
- I didn't tell anybody.
730
00:30:26,755 --> 00:30:28,621
I'm not anybody.
I'm your best friend.
731
00:30:28,690 --> 00:30:30,824
- What's going on?
- She's pregnant.
732
00:30:30,892 --> 00:30:32,125
That's fantastic!
733
00:30:32,194 --> 00:30:34,594
Why didn't you tell me?
734
00:30:34,663 --> 00:30:36,729
She didn't tell
me, either.
735
00:30:36,798 --> 00:30:38,231
But I'm her best friend.
736
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:41,434
(chuckles) We'll get
into that later.
737
00:30:41,503 --> 00:30:44,103
What happened to "I'm
never gonna have kids"?
738
00:30:44,172 --> 00:30:46,506
It was an accident. I went out
drinking with Sheldon.
739
00:30:46,575 --> 00:30:48,708
(gasps) Oh, my gosh.
740
00:30:48,777 --> 00:30:51,077
We're sister wives?
741
00:30:51,146 --> 00:30:53,580
No. Then I went home
and slept with Leonard.
742
00:30:53,648 --> 00:30:55,448
- While fantasizing about...
- Leonard.
743
00:30:55,517 --> 00:30:57,684
And a little Idris Elba.
744
00:30:57,752 --> 00:30:59,018
- I mean, ah...
- Oh, yeah.
745
00:31:01,089 --> 00:31:02,589
What would you like me to say?
746
00:31:02,657 --> 00:31:04,257
How about congratulating us?
747
00:31:04,326 --> 00:31:06,259
Are congratulations
even in order?
748
00:31:06,328 --> 00:31:08,228
I didn't think
Penny wanted children.
749
00:31:08,296 --> 00:31:10,374
Well, she didn't, now she
does. And just so you know,
750
00:31:10,398 --> 00:31:11,509
we weren't gonna tell anybody
751
00:31:11,533 --> 00:31:13,399
so we wouldn't
upstage your big day.
752
00:31:13,468 --> 00:31:15,535
Oh, please,
you couldn't upstage us.
753
00:31:15,604 --> 00:31:16,836
We won a Nobel Prize.
754
00:31:16,905 --> 00:31:18,605
Any idiot can have a baby.
755
00:31:18,673 --> 00:31:20,139
Hey. What's going on?
756
00:31:20,208 --> 00:31:21,708
Case in point.
757
00:31:23,778 --> 00:31:25,745
You are a selfish jerk.
758
00:31:25,814 --> 00:31:27,614
To hell with you and
your Nobel Prize.
759
00:31:30,018 --> 00:31:31,851
I found her boarding pass
in her purse.
760
00:31:31,887 --> 00:31:33,119
It's totally her.
761
00:31:36,992 --> 00:31:38,725
Hi, Stuart, just checking in.
762
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,360
Seeing if everything's okay.
763
00:31:40,395 --> 00:31:42,762
Oh, yeah, we're having fun.
764
00:31:42,831 --> 00:31:46,633
Me, Halley and Denise
played hide-and-seek all day.
765
00:31:46,701 --> 00:31:48,801
- Oh, that's nice.
STUART: Yeah.
766
00:31:48,870 --> 00:31:51,271
I found Denise right away.
767
00:31:52,340 --> 00:31:54,574
Where was Halley hiding?
768
00:31:54,643 --> 00:31:58,678
Uh, the important thing
is she's not there now.
769
00:31:58,747 --> 00:32:01,114
Okay, so, everyone's
happy and healthy?
770
00:32:01,182 --> 00:32:02,749
Well, that depends.
771
00:32:02,817 --> 00:32:03,917
What's that mean?
772
00:32:03,985 --> 00:32:05,885
Uh, how many teeth
773
00:32:05,954 --> 00:32:08,121
did Halley have when you left?
774
00:32:08,189 --> 00:32:09,956
All of them.
775
00:32:10,025 --> 00:32:14,127
Oh, yeah, that's-that's
what I was afraid of.
776
00:32:14,195 --> 00:32:15,528
What happened?
777
00:32:15,597 --> 00:32:17,196
Um, well, all right.
778
00:32:17,265 --> 00:32:20,300
Um, Michael had a little fever
last night.
779
00:32:20,368 --> 00:32:21,768
Michael had a fever?
780
00:32:21,836 --> 00:32:23,703
Do you want to hear about Halley
or not?
781
00:32:23,772 --> 00:32:25,171
What happened, Stuart?
782
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,974
He was running a little fever,
nothing to worry about.
783
00:32:28,043 --> 00:32:30,343
And Halley, bless her heart,
784
00:32:30,412 --> 00:32:32,211
wanted to bring him
his boo-boo bear,
785
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,614
so she climbed
over the safety rail
786
00:32:34,683 --> 00:32:38,217
and took a little tumble
down the stairs.
787
00:32:38,286 --> 00:32:40,386
She fell down the stairs?!
788
00:32:40,455 --> 00:32:43,222
(stammers)
She rolled down the stairs,
789
00:32:43,291 --> 00:32:45,358
laughing the whole time.
(chuckles)
790
00:32:45,427 --> 00:32:46,926
Anyway,
when she got to the bottom,
791
00:32:46,995 --> 00:32:49,228
there was a tooth missing.
792
00:32:49,297 --> 00:32:50,297
Oh, Stuart!
793
00:32:50,332 --> 00:32:51,531
She's fine!
794
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:53,900
She thought it was funny.
795
00:32:53,969 --> 00:32:56,502
Did you at least save
it for the tooth fairy?
796
00:32:56,571 --> 00:32:58,504
No, we couldn't find it.
797
00:32:58,573 --> 00:33:00,173
We have a theory
798
00:33:00,241 --> 00:33:01,641
about where it is,
but it'll take
799
00:33:01,710 --> 00:33:04,677
six to eight hours to confirm.
800
00:33:04,746 --> 00:33:06,679
Speaking of which,
801
00:33:06,748 --> 00:33:09,849
where do you keep
the spaghetti strainer?
802
00:33:13,421 --> 00:33:15,621
Come on, you didn't
seriously expect him to react
803
00:33:15,690 --> 00:33:17,023
like a normal human being.
804
00:33:17,092 --> 00:33:18,591
No, but still,
805
00:33:18,660 --> 00:33:20,593
a-after all these years,
806
00:33:20,662 --> 00:33:22,062
after all the crap
I've put up with,
807
00:33:22,097 --> 00:33:23,563
you'd think just this once
808
00:33:23,631 --> 00:33:25,665
he'd care
about someone else's feelings.
809
00:33:25,734 --> 00:33:27,533
- Oh, my God!
- What?
810
00:33:27,602 --> 00:33:29,936
Pickled herring.
Who knew how good it was!
811
00:33:30,005 --> 00:33:31,537
Really?
812
00:33:31,606 --> 00:33:33,873
Sounds gross.
Looks gross. Smells gross.
813
00:33:33,942 --> 00:33:36,209
It's delicious!
814
00:33:36,277 --> 00:33:37,443
(knock on door)
815
00:33:37,512 --> 00:33:40,913
Ooh, that might
be my salted cod!
816
00:33:43,318 --> 00:33:44,450
What?
817
00:33:44,519 --> 00:33:46,853
Sheldon has something
he'd like to say.
818
00:33:46,921 --> 00:33:48,221
SHELDON:
I'm sorry I didn't
819
00:33:48,289 --> 00:33:49,455
react appropriately.
820
00:33:49,524 --> 00:33:51,524
You and Penny are bringing
new life into the world.
821
00:33:51,559 --> 00:33:53,593
Congratulations. I
can't wait to meet it.
822
00:33:53,661 --> 00:33:55,962
- "It"?
- That's a gender-neutral pronoun.
823
00:33:56,031 --> 00:33:58,564
If you're offended, take it
up with the English language.
824
00:33:59,601 --> 00:34:02,101
Oh, good, you're here.
Listen,
825
00:34:02,170 --> 00:34:05,471
we're thinking
maybe we should go back to L.A.
826
00:34:05,540 --> 00:34:06,773
- Why?
- We just can't
827
00:34:06,841 --> 00:34:08,081
be this far away from the kids.
828
00:34:08,109 --> 00:34:10,109
Bernie's having a meltdown,
829
00:34:10,178 --> 00:34:11,944
and, frankly, so am I.
SHELDON: Yeah, well,
830
00:34:12,013 --> 00:34:14,013
pull it together. This
is a big day for me.
831
00:34:15,483 --> 00:34:19,018
(scoffs) Yeah,
I wasn't sure what to do.
832
00:34:19,087 --> 00:34:21,809
Now I am. We're going home.
833
00:34:21,810 --> 00:34:22,820
- We'll join you.
PENNY: Oh, wait.
834
00:34:22,821 --> 00:34:23,824
Do I get a vote in this?
835
00:34:23,848 --> 00:34:25,579
They'll have pickled herring
on the plane.
836
00:34:25,580 --> 00:34:26,712
Bye-bye.
837
00:34:29,417 --> 00:34:31,217
Well, I hate to say it,
838
00:34:31,286 --> 00:34:34,420
but I think everyone
is being incredibly selfish.
839
00:34:34,489 --> 00:34:38,724
Well, you would be the authority
on the subject.
840
00:34:39,828 --> 00:34:41,060
What does that mean?
841
00:34:42,163 --> 00:34:45,064
Sheldon,
no one is happier than I am
842
00:34:45,133 --> 00:34:46,732
to win the Nobel.
843
00:34:46,801 --> 00:34:49,869
But it's not more important
than our friends.
844
00:34:49,938 --> 00:34:53,940
How can you call them friends
when they're abandoning us?
845
00:34:54,008 --> 00:34:55,575
They're abandoning us
846
00:34:55,643 --> 00:34:57,877
because you broke
their hearts.
847
00:35:00,982 --> 00:35:03,082
- I didn't mean to.
- I know!
848
00:35:03,151 --> 00:35:05,985
You never mean to.
849
00:35:07,088 --> 00:35:08,254
That's the only reason
850
00:35:08,323 --> 00:35:10,022
people tolerate you!
851
00:35:12,126 --> 00:35:13,726
Does that include you?
852
00:35:15,797 --> 00:35:18,231
Sometimes, yeah.
853
00:35:23,638 --> 00:35:25,137
(Penny retching)
854
00:35:25,206 --> 00:35:26,772
(toilet flushes)
855
00:35:26,841 --> 00:35:27,907
(Penny groans)
856
00:35:27,942 --> 00:35:30,977
Okay, that's it for the fish.
857
00:35:31,079 --> 00:35:32,089
We'll be back with the meatballs
858
00:35:32,113 --> 00:35:34,480
after a short word
from our sponsor.
859
00:35:34,515 --> 00:35:37,083
Oh, thank you.
860
00:35:37,151 --> 00:35:39,619
(groans)
861
00:35:39,687 --> 00:35:42,355
Leonard, I can't go home.
862
00:35:42,423 --> 00:35:44,924
- I have to be there for Amy.
- Yeah.
863
00:35:44,993 --> 00:35:46,826
I was thinking that, too.
864
00:35:46,895 --> 00:35:48,494
As angry as I am at Sheldon,
865
00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,830
I still want to see him win
that medal.
866
00:35:50,899 --> 00:35:52,398
It's so strange.
867
00:35:52,467 --> 00:35:55,835
No matter how thoughtless
and selfish he is,
868
00:35:55,904 --> 00:35:58,237
I still love him.
869
00:35:58,306 --> 00:35:59,639
If you think about it,
870
00:35:59,707 --> 00:36:02,108
he has kind of been
our practice kid.
871
00:36:03,177 --> 00:36:05,077
Like when you make pancakes
872
00:36:05,146 --> 00:36:08,247
and the first one
comes out a little wonky.
873
00:36:08,316 --> 00:36:11,484
The university prefers "quirky."
874
00:36:11,552 --> 00:36:12,652
(chuckles)
(phone rings)
875
00:36:15,757 --> 00:36:16,989
Hello.
876
00:36:17,058 --> 00:36:18,257
Hey. It's Howard.
877
00:36:19,427 --> 00:36:20,993
Oh, us, too.
878
00:36:21,062 --> 00:36:23,095
- Wait, what?
- They're gonna stay.
879
00:36:23,164 --> 00:36:25,631
The kids are fine.
Bernie's parents took over.
880
00:36:25,700 --> 00:36:27,366
Really?
881
00:36:27,435 --> 00:36:29,468
Oh, poor little guy.
882
00:36:29,537 --> 00:36:30,703
Is Michael okay?
883
00:36:30,772 --> 00:36:31,871
Yeah, it's Stuart.
884
00:36:31,940 --> 00:36:33,620
Bernie's dad gave him a hug,
cracked a rib.
885
00:36:36,511 --> 00:36:38,110
Yeah. Okay,
we'll meet you in the lobby.
886
00:36:42,617 --> 00:36:44,228
How long is it gonna take you
to get ready?
887
00:36:44,252 --> 00:36:46,852
Oh, I just need, like,
five or ten minutes.
888
00:36:46,921 --> 00:36:49,855
- Really?
- No. What is wrong with you?!
889
00:36:52,293 --> 00:36:54,961
ANNOUNCER:
And in the field of physics,
890
00:36:55,029 --> 00:36:57,330
Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler
891
00:36:57,398 --> 00:36:59,565
and Dr. Sheldon Cooper
892
00:36:59,634 --> 00:37:02,601
for their discovery
of super-asymmetry.
893
00:37:02,670 --> 00:37:04,704
(whistling)
894
00:37:04,772 --> 00:37:06,973
(whoops)
(cheers)
895
00:37:11,412 --> 00:37:14,146
(whooping)
896
00:37:14,215 --> 00:37:16,749
Just to be clear,
this isn't a date.
897
00:37:16,818 --> 00:37:18,184
Yeah, I know.
898
00:37:18,252 --> 00:37:20,653
Then why are you
holding my hand?
899
00:37:22,724 --> 00:37:24,690
Thank you, your majesties.
900
00:37:24,759 --> 00:37:27,326
Thank you
to the Nobel Committee.
901
00:37:27,395 --> 00:37:29,996
We are deeply honored.
902
00:37:31,165 --> 00:37:33,165
I would just like
to take this moment
903
00:37:33,234 --> 00:37:35,434
to say to all the young girls
out there
904
00:37:35,503 --> 00:37:38,904
who dream about science
as a profession:
905
00:37:38,973 --> 00:37:40,539
go for it.
906
00:37:40,608 --> 00:37:43,242
It is the greatest job
907
00:37:43,311 --> 00:37:45,878
in the world.
908
00:37:45,947 --> 00:37:49,482
And if anybody tells you
you can't, don't listen.
909
00:37:52,286 --> 00:37:54,220
And now,
910
00:37:54,288 --> 00:37:57,390
speaking of not listening,
911
00:37:57,458 --> 00:37:59,859
my husband,
Dr. Sheldon Cooper.
912
00:38:00,962 --> 00:38:02,261
Sheldon.
913
00:38:03,364 --> 00:38:05,765
What? Did you finish? Great job.
914
00:38:08,469 --> 00:38:10,403
Thank you, Dr. Fowler.
915
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,573
I have a very long
916
00:38:14,642 --> 00:38:18,110
and somewhat self-centered
speech here.
917
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,313
But I'd like to set it aside.
918
00:38:21,382 --> 00:38:22,526
PENNY: Yeah!
WOLOWITZ: Way to go!
919
00:38:22,550 --> 00:38:24,350
(whoops)
920
00:38:27,455 --> 00:38:31,390
Because this honor
doesn't just belong to me.
921
00:38:32,827 --> 00:38:34,760
I wouldn't be up here
if it weren't
922
00:38:34,829 --> 00:38:38,230
for some very important people
in my life.
923
00:38:38,299 --> 00:38:42,668
Beginning with my mother,
father, meemaw,
924
00:38:42,737 --> 00:38:45,171
brother and sister.
925
00:38:47,241 --> 00:38:49,575
And my other family,
926
00:38:49,644 --> 00:38:52,044
who I'm so happy
to have here with us.
927
00:38:53,147 --> 00:38:55,614
Is that Buffy the
Vampire Slayer?
928
00:39:02,090 --> 00:39:04,490
I was under a misapprehension
929
00:39:04,559 --> 00:39:08,227
that my accomplishments
were mine alone.
930
00:39:10,331 --> 00:39:12,264
Nothing could be further
from the truth.
931
00:39:13,367 --> 00:39:15,534
I have been
932
00:39:15,603 --> 00:39:18,204
encouraged, sustained,
933
00:39:18,272 --> 00:39:21,841
inspired and tolerated
934
00:39:21,909 --> 00:39:25,111
not only by my wife,
935
00:39:25,179 --> 00:39:28,147
but by the greatest group
of friends anyone ever had.
936
00:39:30,852 --> 00:39:33,619
I'd like to ask them to stand.
937
00:39:35,423 --> 00:39:37,456
Dr. Rajesh Koothrappali.
938
00:39:41,462 --> 00:39:44,096
Dr. Bernadette
Rostenkowski Wolowitz.
939
00:39:48,035 --> 00:39:50,469
Astronaut Howard Wolowitz.
940
00:39:54,442 --> 00:39:58,577
And my two dearest friends
in the world,
941
00:39:58,646 --> 00:40:00,679
Penny Hofstadter...
942
00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:08,354
...and Dr. Leonard Hofstadter.
943
00:40:12,660 --> 00:40:15,694
I was there the moment
Leonard and Penny met.
944
00:40:15,763 --> 00:40:19,899
He said to me that their babies
would be smart and beautiful.
945
00:40:21,969 --> 00:40:23,903
And now that they're expecting,
946
00:40:23,971 --> 00:40:26,172
I have no doubt that
that will be the case.
947
00:40:26,240 --> 00:40:29,241
Thanks, Sheldon. I-I haven't
told my parents yet, but thanks.
948
00:40:30,745 --> 00:40:33,746
Oh. I'm sorry.
949
00:40:34,849 --> 00:40:36,315
Don't tell anyone
that last thing.
950
00:40:36,384 --> 00:40:38,250
That's a secret.
951
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,021
Howard, Bernadette,
952
00:40:42,089 --> 00:40:46,292
Raj, Penny, Leonard,
953
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,329
I apologize if I haven't
been the friend you deserve.
954
00:40:51,432 --> 00:40:53,265
But I want you to know
955
00:40:53,334 --> 00:40:56,869
in my way,
956
00:40:56,938 --> 00:40:59,438
I love you all.
957
00:41:02,810 --> 00:41:04,176
And I love you.
958
00:41:08,115 --> 00:41:09,648
Thank you.
959
00:41:09,717 --> 00:41:11,050
