1. T-minus 60 seconds!
Copy !req
2. Oh, it all comes
down to this!
Copy !req
3. Oh, I've got
butterflies.
Copy !req
4. Don't get soft on me,
hofstadter.
Copy !req
5. I will slap those glasses
right off your face.
Copy !req
6. What's going on?
Copy !req
7. Hey. We're about
to buy tickets for comic-con.
Copy !req
8. Oh.
Copy !req
9. T minus 45 seconds!
Copy !req
10. They sell out incredibly
fast, but as long
Copy !req
11. As one of us gets in,
we can buy passes...
Good lord,
Copy !req
12. This is not the time for
flirting! Keep it in your pants!
Copy !req
13. It's a whole lot
of weird before coffee.
Copy !req
14. T-minus 30 seconds!
Copy !req
15. Oh, I have to go
to the bathroom so bad.
Copy !req
16. Every year!
I told you, wear a diaper!
Copy !req
17. And I told you
I get diaper rash!
Copy !req
18. 15 seconds!
Copy !req
19. Oh, this is it!
Copy !req
20. This is it!
Copy !req
21. This is it.
Copy !req
22. Five,
Copy !req
23. Four, three,
Copy !req
24. Two, one.
Copy !req
25. It's live. Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
Copy !req
26. Anyone in?
Copy !req
27. No!
Not yet!
Nope!
Copy !req
28. Do not stop
refreshing your screens!
Copy !req
29. Refresh. Refresh. Refresh.
Copy !req
30. Refresh.
Copy !req
31. Refresh. Refresh.
Copy !req
32. Refresh. Refresh. Refresh...
Copy !req
33. Yeah, this is not
gonna be enough coffee.
Copy !req
34. Refresh. Refresh. Refresh.
Copy !req
35. All
Refresh... Refresh... Refresh...
Copy !req
36. Refresh... Refresh...
Copy !req
37. Refresh.
Refresh.
Copy !req
38. Refresh.
Copy !req
39. Refresh. It's been ten minutes!
Copy !req
40. We're running out of time.
Copy !req
41. To be cool? Yeah.
Copy !req
42. I did it! I did it!
I'm in the queue!
Copy !req
43. And they say firefighters
are the real heroes.
Copy !req
44. Uh, what number
in line are you?
Copy !req
45. Uh, 15...
Great!
Copy !req
46. Thousand, 211.
Copy !req
47. Damn!
Oh!
Copy !req
48. Oh, they only have Thursday
and Sunday passes left.
Copy !req
49. Really?
Oh, Thursday's gone.
Just Sunday left.
Copy !req
50. Oh, Sunday's the worst!
Copy !req
51. Everybody's leaving, most
of the good panels are over,
Copy !req
52. And the only t-shirts they have
left are small and xxxxl.
Copy !req
53. Sunday's gone.
Copy !req
54. Not Sunday! I love Sunday!
Copy !req
55. So that's it?
Everything's sold out?
Copy !req
56. Yeah.
Copy !req
57. I can't believe we're not going.
Copy !req
58. It's okay.
Copy !req
59. You know, there-there's always
wondercon in anaheim, you know?
Copy !req
60. That-that's just as good.
Copy !req
61. Excuse me.
Copy !req
62. Oh, guys, this is really sad.
Copy !req
63. And in a different way
than it was 20 minutes ago.
Copy !req
64. I can't believe we wasted all
that time on our hulk costumes.
Copy !req
65. What? You were all going
as the hulk?
Copy !req
66. Not the same hulk.
Copy !req
67. Ferrigno, bana,
norton and ruffalo.
Copy !req
68. We would have been
the angry green belles
Copy !req
69. Of the masquerade ball.
Copy !req
70. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Copy !req
71. And we're back
to the first kind of sad.
Copy !req
72. Gentlemen, I have the solution
to our comic-con problem.
Copy !req
73. We don't need them.
Copy !req
74. I'm starting my own convention.
Copy !req
75. Sheldon, just buy
scalped tickets with us.
Copy !req
76. I told you. Buying scalped
tickets is against the rules.
Copy !req
77. If you get caught,
you get
Copy !req
78. Banned from comic-con for life.
Copy !req
79. Life, leonard.
Copy !req
80. You're gonna feel pretty silly
when we're 80 years old,
Copy !req
81. And you have
to drive me down there
Copy !req
82. And then wait in the car
for three days.
Copy !req
83. Do what you want.
Copy !req
84. We're getting
scalped tickets.
Copy !req
85. Oh, I already found a guy online
who's willing to sell.
Copy !req
86. How do you know
this isn't a sting operation
Copy !req
87. Set up by the comic-con police?
Copy !req
88. The same way I know
Copy !req
89. That the people
in the tv set can't see me.
Copy !req
90. Sheldon,
just come with us.
Copy !req
91. You're not gonna make
your own convention.
Copy !req
92. You know, there was a time
Copy !req
93. When comic-con didn't exist
at all until one lone dreamer
Copy !req
94. With a unique vision
made it happen.
Copy !req
95. And you mark my words—
I'm gonna rip that guy off.
Copy !req
96. Yes, I'm starting
my own comic book convention,
Copy !req
97. And I thought that your client,
robert downey jr., would be
Copy !req
98. Perfect to appear
on our first panel.
Copy !req
99. Oh, well, now,
why are you saying "no"?
Copy !req
100. You haven't even
asked him yet.
Copy !req
101. You know, excuse me,
Copy !req
102. But I sat through iron man 2.
Copy !req
103. I believe he owes me two hours
of his time.
Copy !req
104. They hung up on me.
Copy !req
105. Did you tell them that
you're holding your convention
Copy !req
106. At a marie callender's,
Copy !req
107. And that every panelist
gets a free slice of pie?
Copy !req
108. I didn't even get to that part.
Copy !req
109. Look, even your friend
wil wheaton thinks
Copy !req
110. This is a
waste of time.
Copy !req
111. Not true.
Copy !req
112. Wil thinks
this is a great idea.
Copy !req
113. He was just concerned that
he wasn't a big enough celebrity
Copy !req
114. To headline
such an amazing event.
Copy !req
115. Also, that's the same day
that he shampoos his beard.
Copy !req
116. Sheldon, buddy,
I just don't think
Copy !req
117. This is going
to come together for you.
Copy !req
118. You don't know that.
Copy !req
119. I still have plenty
of solid leads on this list.
Copy !req
120. Good luck.
No, wait.
Copy !req
121. I need you to call stan lee,
leonard nimoy
Copy !req
122. And bill nye the science guy...
Copy !req
123. 'cause, legally,
I'm not allowed to.
Copy !req
124. Oh, and, also,
Copy !req
125. Carrie fisher, you know,
Copy !req
126. 'cause I hear
she can be pretty nuts.
Copy !req
127. I can't believe
Copy !req
128. Leonard is spending hundreds
of dollars on scalped tickets.
Copy !req
129. Last week, you spent that
on a little dress.
Copy !req
130. Yeah, but those tickets
only get him into comic-con.
Copy !req
131. That dress gets me
into anywhere I want.
Copy !req
132. Those tickets
were pretty expensive.
Copy !req
133. I had to give howie an advance
on his allowance.
Copy !req
134. Now he's never gonna
put his toys away.
Copy !req
135. Why can't they do
something sensible
Copy !req
136. Like sheldon and start their
own comic book convention?
Copy !req
137. Also, who wants
to throw me out that window?
Copy !req
138. Oh, while they're acting
like teenagers,
Copy !req
139. We could do something grown-up.
Copy !req
140. Oh. You mean like a museum?
Copy !req
141. Yes, like a museum,
but anything else.
Copy !req
142. Oh, I know.
Copy !req
143. There's a nice hotel
not far from here
Copy !req
144. Where they do
afternoon tea.
Copy !req
145. Ooh, afternoon tea—
how sophisticated of us.
Copy !req
146. Oh, all right,
if we're gonna be fancy,
Copy !req
147. I should probably put on
clean underwear.
Copy !req
148. La-dee-da!
Copy !req
149. Look who has
clean underwear.
Copy !req
150. No, we're gonna stop at target
on the way.
Copy !req
151. Hey, since sheldon's
not going to comic-con,
Copy !req
152. Maybe we could find a cool trio
to dress up as.
Copy !req
153. What if we go as the fantastic
four, and just tell people
Copy !req
154. That the invisible girl
is standing there with us.
Copy !req
155. Oh, and I thought our days
of pretending
Copy !req
156. To be with women
who don't exist were over.
Copy !req
157. Gentlemen,
I am one step away
Copy !req
158. From securing a huge guest
for my convention.
Copy !req
159. Does that step
include chloroform
Copy !req
160. And a roll of duct tape?
Copy !req
161. I don't think that
will be necessary
Copy !req
162. For mr. James earl jones.
Copy !req
163. You heard me.
Copy !req
164. The voice of darth vader,
Copy !req
165. The lion king's dad,
Copy !req
166. And fyi, the guy who says,
"this is cnn."
Copy !req
167. Which also sounds
like darth vader.
Copy !req
168. How are you gonna get
james earl jones?
Copy !req
169. Simple.
Earlier today, he tweeted
Copy !req
170. That he's looking forward
Copy !req
171. To going to his favorite
sushi restaurant for dinner.
Copy !req
172. I googled an interview
from four years ago
Copy !req
173. Which was conducted in
his favorite sushi restaurant.
Copy !req
174. That's where he'll be, and
that's where I'm going, and...
Copy !req
175. And that's where
Copy !req
176. Darth vader's gonna pour
soy sauce on your head.
Copy !req
177. Sheldon, I don't care if you get
scalped tickets with us or not,
Copy !req
178. But please don't be creepy
and go stalking this poor guy.
Copy !req
179. You're gonna get in trouble.
Copy !req
180. You're the ones
who are going to get in trouble.
Copy !req
181. You're buying
non-transferable tickets.
Copy !req
182. And from a stranger, no less.
Copy !req
183. Not only can you get
banned from comic-con,
Copy !req
184. If caught, you could be charged
with petty theft.
Copy !req
185. You think about that while
I'm warning james earl jones
Copy !req
186. About the danger of posting
his location on twitter.
Copy !req
187. He got lucky this time.
Copy !req
188. There are some weirdoes
out there.
Copy !req
189. ♪ bom, bom, bom
Copy !req
190. Forgot my keys.
♪ bom, bom
Copy !req
191. Okay, great. Bye.
Copy !req
192. Our friendly
neighborhood scalper
Copy !req
193. Says he's running late.
Copy !req
194. Does he sound like a criminal?
Copy !req
195. What do you mean?
Copy !req
196. You know,
did he say things like,
Copy !req
197. "youse guys,"
or "listen here, see?"
Copy !req
198. Yes. He-he's late
Copy !req
199. Because he's on his way here
from 1940.
Copy !req
200. I'm just saying.
Copy !req
201. We don't know
who this guy is.
Copy !req
202. What if he wants to steal
our money or our kidneys,
Copy !req
203. Or make a suit out
of our skins?
Copy !req
204. Why would someone want to make
clothes out of your skin?
Copy !req
205. I don't know.
Copy !req
206. Maybe 'cause
dark doesn't show the stains?
Copy !req
207. Well, now
you're making me wonder
Copy !req
208. If we should have met him
at a neutral location.
Copy !req
209. Why do you think I told him
to come to your place?
Copy !req
210. There sure are a lot
of little kids here.
Copy !req
211. I can't believe we thought this
would makes us feel grown up.
Copy !req
212. I can't believe the waiter
thought I was your daughter.
Copy !req
213. Well, last time I got dressed up
and had tea was when I was five.
Copy !req
214. Just me, my teddy bear,
raggedy ann and my hamster.
Copy !req
215. That's cute.
It was.
Copy !req
216. Till my hamster ate
all her babies.
Copy !req
217. It got less cute really fast.
Copy !req
218. Should we leave?
Copy !req
219. Well, there's a bar
in the lobby.
Copy !req
220. I could go for a drink.
Copy !req
221. Aw. Drinking in the afternoon,
just like her mommy.
Copy !req
222. Let me guess.
Copy !req
223. You like star wars.
Copy !req
224. You know, I've been
in other movies.
Copy !req
225. But you don't care
about those, do you?
Copy !req
226. I have one thing to say
to people like you...
Copy !req
227. I like star wars, too!
Copy !req
228. Care to join me?
Copy !req
229. Oh... Thank you.
Copy !req
230. My friend leonard said
if I bothered you
Copy !req
231. While you were eating, you'd
think I was a creepy stalker.
Copy !req
232. Well...
Copy !req
233. Your friend leonard sounds
like a real weenie.
Copy !req
234. He is, mr. Earl jones, he is.
Copy !req
235. Okay, so, I'm
on a comic-con message board,
Copy !req
236. And there's a post from a guy
Copy !req
237. Where he says he got caught
using someone else's badge...
Copy !req
238. And sheldon was right— he did
get charged with petty theft.
Copy !req
239. Guys... If I go to jail
dressed as the human torch,
Copy !req
240. That might send
the wrong message.
Copy !req
241. Maybe this isn't
a good idea.
Copy !req
242. I can text the guy and tell him
we changed our minds.
Copy !req
243. Do it.
Copy !req
244. Okay.
Copy !req
245. We're officially
not going to comic-con.
Copy !req
246. Hold on.
We always do this.
Copy !req
247. Do what?
Copy !req
248. Chicken out.
We're-we're so afraid
Copy !req
249. Of getting into trouble that
we never do anything wrong.
Copy !req
250. That's 'cause
we're the good guys.
Copy !req
251. Even batman breaks the rules.
Copy !req
252. You know I struggle with batman.
Copy !req
253. I-I say, this one time,
instead of wimping out,
Copy !req
254. Let's be badasses!
Copy !req
255. Okay, I'll be a badass—
Copy !req
256. But only if you pinky-swear
to be one, too.
Copy !req
257. Howard, you in on this?
Copy !req
258. No need. I'm breaking rules
all the time.
Copy !req
259. Name one.
Copy !req
260. Last night.
Copy !req
261. Drank my pepto
straight out of the bottle.
Copy !req
262. What about that little
cup they give you?
Copy !req
263. Yeah.
Copy !req
264. What about it?
Copy !req
265. A-are you
impressed by that?
Copy !req
266. A little.
Yeah, me, too.
Copy !req
267. You know, when I first
read the script for
empire strikes back
Copy !req
268. And darth vader told luke
he was his father...
Copy !req
269. I thought for sure
he was lying.
Copy !req
270. Me, too!
Copy !req
271. But he wasn't, was he?
Copy !req
272. He was not!
Copy !req
273. How messed up was that?
Copy !req
274. So messed up.
Copy !req
275. What do you say
let's go have some fun?
Copy !req
276. My wife's
in new york,
Copy !req
277. And I got a lion king
residual check
Copy !req
278. Burning a hole in my pocket.
Copy !req
279. So, afternoon tea
was a bust.
Copy !req
280. On the bright side,
every six-year-old there
Copy !req
281. Was jealous of my tiara.
Copy !req
282. Not gonna lie—
it felt good.
Copy !req
283. Let me ask you a question:
Copy !req
284. When did you guys
start feeling grown up?
Copy !req
285. 'cause I am not sure I do.
Copy !req
286. Honestly, I thought when
I got married I would,
Copy !req
287. But I still kind of feel
like I'm pretending.
Copy !req
288. It doesn't help that
most of my clothes
come from gap kids.
Copy !req
289. Okay, so I'm an adult,
Copy !req
290. And the other day I saw
an old man slip and fall down,
Copy !req
291. And I laughed.
Copy !req
292. I mean, I laughed hard.
Copy !req
293. Like-like,
Copy !req
294. Out loud.
Copy !req
295. If he was conscious,
he would've heard me.
Copy !req
296. Oh, my gosh.
I know.
Copy !req
297. One of the tennis balls
came off his walker
Copy !req
298. And bounced right off his head.
I mean...
Copy !req
299. I... I almost wet myself.
Copy !req
300. I guess you had to be there.
Copy !req
301. I think I have
you both beat.
Copy !req
302. Imagine trying to feel
like a grown-up
Copy !req
303. When you've never
even been with a man.
Copy !req
304. Okay, sex is not
what makes you a grown-up.
Copy !req
305. Yeah. Or you'd be
the oldest one here.
Copy !req
306. Really?
Copy !req
307. Is that how you talk
to your mother?
Copy !req
308. He just parked.
He's on his way up.
Copy !req
309. Good. This is exciting.
Copy !req
310. It is. I feel alive.
Yeah.
Copy !req
311. What if we do get caught;
who cares?
Copy !req
312. So we get banned from comic-con.
Copy !req
313. Maybe slapped
with a fine.
Oh, no.
Copy !req
314. I'll be an astronaut
and a bad boy—
Copy !req
315. How will women
keep their pants on?
Copy !req
316. Uh, maybe it'll come up when
I apply for citizenship.
Copy !req
317. Oh, crap, what if it comes up
when I apply for citizenship?
Copy !req
318. I wonder if we'd have
to disclose something like this
Copy !req
319. When we apply for grants.
Copy !req
320. He's gonna be here any second—
what should we do?
Copy !req
321. You guys are such babies.
Copy !req
322. I'll handle this.
Copy !req
323. If he thinks we're not home,
he'll go away.
Copy !req
324. I thought you
were a badass.
Copy !req
325. I lied about the pepto—
I always use the little cup!
Copy !req
326. Is it true, as a child,
you were a stutterer
Copy !req
327. And were functionally
mute for eight years?
Copy !req
328. It is true.
Oh.
Copy !req
329. Is it true they
used scuba gear
Copy !req
330. To create the sound of
darth vader breathing?
Copy !req
331. They sure did.
Oh.
Copy !req
332. Is it true that you
were premed in college
Copy !req
333. And you almost
became a doctor?
Copy !req
334. That's right.
Copy !req
335. Oh, james!
Copy !req
336. I could listen
to your stories all night.
Copy !req
337. I mean, really, what's
so great about being grown up?
Copy !req
338. Well, for starters, we'd be
splitting this check three ways.
Copy !req
339. I'm serious.
Who wants to do all that stuff?
Copy !req
340. Have insurance, pay mortgages,
Copy !req
341. Leave one of those little notes
when you hit a parked car.
Copy !req
342. I told you
it was penny.
Copy !req
343. Oh, come on, it wasn't me.
Copy !req
344. Anyone could have knocked
your mirror off...
Copy !req
345. Or whatever happened.
Copy !req
346. Maybe the guys
are right.
Copy !req
347. I mean, we spent the whole
night trying to be mature,
Copy !req
348. And it was kind of boring.
Copy !req
349. I'm sure they're having
more fun than we are.
Copy !req
350. Oh, god, I could really use
Copy !req
351. Exactly two tablespoons
of pepto right now.
Copy !req
352. Hey, los angeles!
Copy !req
353. I'm on a ferris wheel
with darth vader!
Copy !req
354. And he's nicer than you think!
Copy !req
355. I am!

Copy !req

with the karaoke.
Copy !req

at the strip club?
Copy !req
372. Oh.

Well...
Copy !req
376. My friends and I couldn't
get into comic-con this year,
Copy !req
377. And I was trying to start
my own convention,
Copy !req
378. And I was going
Copy !req
379. To ask if you
would be a panelist.
Copy !req
380. Why don't you and your friends
come to comic-con with me?
Copy !req
381. Really?
Of course.
Copy !req
382. And san diego is
right across the border
Copy !req
383. From my favorite city on earth,
Copy !req
384. Tijuana...
Copy !req
385. Where I'm taking you
every night!
Copy !req
386. Ay-yi-yi.
Copy !req
387. Ay-yi-yi, bang-bang.
Copy !req
388. So, beau bridges
is on my shoulders,
Copy !req
389. And jeff bridges is
on marlon brando's shoulders,
Copy !req
390. And remember, we do
not have permission
to be in the pool—
Copy !req
391. Hey! Sheldon, wake up!
Copy !req
392. And...
Copy !req
393. Angie dickinson is
about to sic the dogs on us,
Copy !req
394. And I go under the water and
marlon goes under the water,
Copy !req
395. And the water raises
about two feet
Copy !req
396. And sloshes all
over her patio,
Copy !req
397. And the dogs freak out
and run like hell, and
then we run like hell...
Copy !req
398. Oh, boy!
Copy !req
399. That was a lot of fun.
Copy !req
400. Uh... Who's angie dickinson?
