S7 E1The Hofstadter Insufficiency

[on phone on deck of ship in storm] Sheldon! It's not a great time. What do you want?

Hello to you too. I'm sorry, but this is important.

What is it?

Back to the Future 2 was in the Back to the Future 3-case, and Back to the Future 3 was, get this, in the Back to the Future 2-case.

SO?!

So... Did you do that or am I in the house with an intruder?

Sheldon, I've got to go inside. It's getting rough out here.

You're dodging the question. I knew it was you. What was that?

What was what?

This isn't a very good connection, but it sounded like someone just released a kraken.

Okay, I'm hanging up now. You know there is no such thing as a kraaaa...

Welcome to the exciting world of 3-D chess.

Why don't you admit you only want to play this game because you always play with Leonard and you miss him?

You over estimate his significance in my life.

Mmm.

Do I miss how he makes a face on my toaster waffle with syrup? No. Do I miss the way he fixes the zipper on my jacket when it gets stuck? I don't think so. Do I miss how we say good night to each other through the walls of our bedroom using Morse code? [Knocks his answer in Morse Code].

OK, I get it. I get it. You’re an emotionless robot.

Well, I try.

S7 E2The Deception Verification

Sheldon. Your fight's with Leonard. Penny’s got nothing to do…

Careful Amy. The friend of my enemy’s girlfriend is my enemy.

Really.

Yes. You’re either with me or against me.

You want to take the bus to work?

Maybe there’s a third option.

So am I driving you to work or are you still mad at me?

I’d like a ride. Assuming you actually do take me to work.

Where do you think I would take you?

Who knows? You said you’d be home yesterday, but came home three days ago. You say you’re taking me to work, but for all I know I’ll end up in a deserted amusement park, or a cornfield maze or a back alley dog fight. You tell me.

I’m going to work. You can come if you want.

OK. By the way you have something on your shirt.

No, I don’t.

Hurts, doesn't it? You know I find myself wondering if anything you every told me is true.

I didn't make it back. The ship sank. I’m in hell.

You say you’re from New Jersey, but how can I believe you.

Why would anybody claim to be from New Jersey, if they weren't?

All right, I’ll give you that one.

S7 E3The Scavenger Vortex

I’m going to make you guys a scavenger hunt like they have at M.I.T.

Oh, I love those. I did them every year there.

We did them at Princeton too.

Oh, that’s cute. Like it’s a real college.

Amusing. I was going to say that about M.I.T., but it works for Princeton, too.

Scavenger hunts at Harvard were really tough. I’d always get stuck on the first challenge; trying to find someone to be on a team with me. [Laughs] I guess that story’s more sad than funny.

OK, go ahead and divide yourselves into teams of two.

Should we just do couples?

Couples sounds great or we could mix things up maybe pick teams out of a hat. Whatever.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Why don’t you just admit you don’t want to be on a team with me?

I just said couples sound great.

Hm-mm. Yea. You don’t think I’m smart enough. You just think I’m going to be a liability. Even though I totally just used liability correctly in a sentence.

[Amy nods at her.]

No, let’s do couples. I want to.

Oh no, no. Let’s mix things up. I choose Sheldon and we’re going to kick your ass.

Really? The only time I ever get picked first for the team and I’m stuck with the liability.

Stop that. Penny is not a liability.

Thank you. Do you want me to be on my team?

Maybe we pick names out of a hat?

S7 E4The Raiders Minimization

So how was school?

Oh, good. Check it out. The Disappointing Child by Beverly Hofstadter.

You bought my Mom’s book?

Yes. It’s on the recommended reading list for my psychology class.

Oh. Come on. Not that book. It got like every horrible story from my childhood in it.

Oh cool. Are there pictures?

Seriously, please find another book.

Oh come on. How bad could it be?

The next chapter’s about the potty training. Bed wetting. Masturbation. Basically if something came out of me, she wrote about it. You know, do whatever you want, just don’t talk to me about it.

Not even the chapter on the breast feeding crisis?

It was not a crisis. Apparently I favored the left one. She got a little lopsided.

Oh my God. You still go left.

Well. You sit back, relax and enjoy a beloved childhood memory. You see that cabin there. I read they were illegally squatting on Indian land. Well, personally I think what we did to the Native Americans was wrong, but this is your favorite show, not mine. Oh look at little Laura Ingalls eating that peanut butter sandwich. Peanut butter, huh. That’s strange since peanut butter wasn't introduced until the early 1900’s. [Amy stops smiling.] If I knew this show was about time travel I would have watched it much sooner.

[Amy stops the show.] You’re trying to get back at me for what I said about Raiders of the Lost Ark.

That’s silly. Almost as silly as Dr. Baker having a telephone since telephones only existed in large cities at the time. It’s more like Little House on the Preposterous.

Sheldon we are in a relationship. When you get angry, tell me. You don’t need to seek revenge.

Are you sure? Every time my Dad stayed out all night my Mom put hamster poop in his chewing tobacco.

Well, that’s not how we’re going to do it.

Well, fine. I’m mad at you. Not only did you ruin Raiders for me but you may have ruined the whole franchise, except for the fourth one which was bad before you got your mitts on it.

I shouldn't have said it. I’m sorry.

Thank you.

You feel better?

Yes. But not as good when I tell you, your precious Garfield has no reason to hate Mondays. He’s a cat. He doesn't have a job.

S7 E5The Workplace Proximity

I may have overreacted

Well, yeah, well. I didn’t handle it so great either.

Just sometimes I feel like you enjoy spending time with your friends more than with me.

That’s not true.

It’s not? You spend all day together at work and then you all hang out at night playing games, going to the comic book store. Last week you two got a couple’s massage. You said you wouldn’t want to spend that much time with me, it really hurt my feelings.

Oh wow, yeah, I get that. I’m so sorry. Starting tomorrow I am turning over a new leaf. Being with you is my number one priority.

[Knock..knock..knock] Amy. [Knock..knock..knock] Amy. [Knock..knock..knock] Amy.

Sheldon, what are you doing here so late?

I couldn’t sleep because I kept thinking about what happened earlier between us. Also I had one heck of a bus nap. Oh speaking of which. Do you want some mutton and coconut milk?

No.

Boy, I cannot give this stuff away.

What do you want?

Amy, this isn’t easy to say. All relationships are difficult, but even more so when you’re in one with a person who struggles with everyday social interactions and frankly who can strike some people as being kind of a weirdo.

Sheldon, you’re not a weirdo.

I wasn’t speaking about me. I mean honestly, there’s no telling what will set you off. You know, introducing myself as your boyfriend. Giving you the opportunity to drive me home. Breaking the ice with your colleagues using ethnic humor, you’re funniest kind of humor.

What’s your point?

My point is we’re a couple and I like you for who you are quirks and all.

I like you too.

I should hope so. I don’t see anyone else banging on this door to put up with your nonsense. [Amy slams the door in his face] Not even a goodbye. You see, that’s the kind of thing that makes people think you’re weird. Poor kid, she just doesn’t see it.

S7 E6The Romance Resonance

This is the very copy of the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics in which I looked up the reaction rates of mendelevium and.. .

And what?

No. No, no, no, no.

What’s wrong?

I've made a horrible mistake.

What are you talking about?

This table. It’s in square centimeters. I read it in square meters. Do you know what that means?

That Americans can’t handle the metric system?

Amy, I was off by a factor of ten thousand.

But the Chinese team found the element.

Well they shouldn't have, my calculations were wrong. There must be some resonance between the elements I didn’t know about.

You mean you just got lucky?

Sheldon Cooper does not get lucky!

You and me both, brother. It doesn't matter. The element was found because of you and that’s ground breaking.

What matters is the greatest scientific achievement of my life is based on a blunder. I’m not a genius. I’m a fraud.

[singing to quarantined Bernadette, the other five backing him up]

If I didn't have you

Life would be blue.

I'd be Doctor Who without the TARDIS.

A candle without a wick,

A Watson without a Crick.

I'd be one of my outfits without a dick-y.

I'd be cheese without the mac,

Jobs without the Wozniak.

I'd be solving exponential equations that use bases not found on your calculator making them much harder to crack.

I'd be an atom without the bomb.

A dot without the com.

And I'd probably still live with my mom.

FFriends

And he'd probably still live with his mom.

Ever since I met you, you turned my world around.

You supported all my dreams and all my hopes.

You're like Uranium-235, and I'm Uranium-238:

Almost inseparable isotopes.

I couldn't have imagined how good my life would get,

From the moment that I met you, Bernadette.

[choked up] Oh, Howie!

If I didn't have you,

Life would be dreary.

I'd be string theory without any string.

I'd be binary code without a one.

A cathode ray tube without an electron gun.

I'd be Firefly, Buffy and Avengers without Joss Whedon.

I'd speak a lot more Klingon.

Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam [Klingon for "Today is a good day to die."]

FFriends

And he'd definitely still live with his mom.

Ever since I met you, you turned my world around.

You're my best friend and my lover.

We're like changing electric and magnetic fields,

You can't have one without the other.

I couldn't have imagined how good my life would get,

From the moment that I met you, Bernadette.

EEveryone

Oh, we couldn't have imagined how good our lives would get,

From the moment that we met you, Bernadette.

S7 E7The Proton Displacement

Because it’s just so happens, I’m also spending the day with a beloved children television science personality. Isn’t that right, new friend and colleague, Bill Nye, the Science Guy? Sorry I replaced you with a newer model.

BNBill Nye

Wow, Arthur Jeffries. It’s an honor to meet you. My show never would have happened without yours.

PProfessor Proton

That’s what I told my lawyers.

PProfessor Proton

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah, sure.

PProfessor Proton

Why do you put up with Sheldon?

Oh, um, you know. Because we’re friends.

PProfessor Proton

.... Why?

Wow. You ask really hard questions. Look, I know he can be aggravating, but you have to remember, he’s not doing it on purpose. It’s just how he is. Oh, but he’s also loyal, and trustworthy and we have fun together.

PProfessor Proton

You know, you’re describing a dog.

He did bite me once. But in his defense, I came up behind him while he was eating.

PProfessor Proton

They hate that.

You know what. Sheldon is the smartest person I’ve ever met. He’s a little broke and he needs me. I guess I need him too.

PProfessor Proton

Why’s that?

You will not let this go.

S7 E8The Itchy Brain Simulation

My God, that’s the girl that broke Rajesh’s heart.

That’s Lucy?

I don’t know why, but I always pictured her as Indian.

I think that reason's called racism.

I’m going to talk to her.

Why? What are you going to say?

I’m not going to say anything. I’m just want to check her out. She hurt my friend. My Indian friend. Who’s racist now?

You. Because you just called him your Indian friend.

Yeah, well, you’re short.

We’re never getting our drinks.

No, believe that.

Hi. Can I start off with something to drink?

LLucy

Oh, water would be great.

Okay. Um, you’re Lucy, right? I’m a friend of Rajesh Koothrappali. You see, Amy recognized you.

LLucy

Wow, how’s he doing?

Oh, you know. He’s good.

LLucy

Great.

Yeah. This is none of my business, but why did you break up with him in an email?

LLucy

Um, I don’t know. I guess I thought it would be easier.

Yea, I get that. I’ll go get you your water. When you say easier, you mean easier for you, right? Cause it certainly didn’t make it easier for him.

LLucy

Any chance I can get a different waitress?

I’m sorry, it’s rude of me. I will get you that water. See, see, see, see. Just now, you expressed your feelings to my face. How come you can do that with me and not with Raj?

LLucy

I don’t know your email.

You know what the worst part is? You’re sitting here perfectly happy and he’s at home a blubbering mess.

LLucy

I thought you said he was OK.

Well, I also said I was getting your water, but look at me. Still standing here. You know, maybe I’m a bad waitress, but you’re a bad person. Now, you want to hear the special?
