1. Previously on Young Sheldon...
Copy !req
2. - Veronica.
- I'm here for your mom's Bible study.
Copy !req
3. I'm glad you could join us.
Copy !req
4. - What are you doing?
- Come here for Bible study.
Copy !req
5. If you want to be
a good Christian,
Copy !req
6. maybe you should stop
lying through your teeth.
Copy !req
7. Hey, Mom, just a heads-up.
I'm gettin' baptized tomorrow.
Copy !req
8. We did it.
I'm so happy.
Copy !req
9. I love you.
Copy !req
10. There are certain phrases
Copy !req
11. that are used by dads
around the world.
Copy !req
12. Close the fridge.
Copy !req
13. You're wastin' money.
Copy !req
14. I'm having trouble deciding
between pudding and Jell-O.
Copy !req
15. Well, decide what you want,
and then open it.
Copy !req
16. But I need the visual input.
Copy !req
17. Does the pudding have a skin?
Copy !req
18. Plus, it's good fun
jiggling the Jell-O.
Copy !req
19. - Do you have any idea
what our electric bill is?
- Yes.
Copy !req
20. I do our taxes.
Copy !req
21. And it's higher
than it should be.
Copy !req
22. And why do you think that is?
Copy !req
23. Well, I don't want
to point any fingers,
Copy !req
24. but Missy sleeps
with a night-light.
Copy !req
25. Make a choice
and close the door.
Copy !req
26. Okay. There's only one
logical way to settle this.
Copy !req
27. Eenie-meenie...
Copy !req
28. Close the door!
Copy !req
29. Hey.
Copy !req
30. What do you want?
Copy !req
31. I just wanted to
apologize again.
Copy !req
32. My behavior was crazy.
Copy !req
33. I blame hormones.
Copy !req
34. Really?
'Cause I blame you.
Copy !req
35. Is there any way
you can forgive me?
Copy !req
36. Please?
Copy !req
37. Fine. I forgive you.
Copy !req
38. You're not just saying it
'cause you're trying to be
Copy !req
39. a good Christian and
you're afraid of going to Hell?
Copy !req
40. Do you want me
to forgive you or not?
Copy !req
41. Very much.
Copy !req
42. Then stop talking
and let's move on.
Copy !req
43. So... so we're friends again?
Copy !req
44. Sure.
Copy !req
45. Just as friends,
would you wanna hang out
Copy !req
46. on Saturday night?
Copy !req
47. In a no-kissing and no-punching-in-
the-face kind of way?
Copy !req
48. I can't. My boyfriend's
taking me to dinner.
Copy !req
49. Boyfriend, boyfriend,
boyfriend...
Copy !req
50. You know,
I got to run.
Copy !req
51. I'm glad we're friends again.
Copy !req
52. - Your brother looks upset.
- Really?
Copy !req
53. I would have guessed hungry.
Copy !req
54. See you later.
Copy !req
55. Mr. Givens,
a moment of your time?
Copy !req
56. I'm curious about
more cost-effective methods
Copy !req
57. of generating electricity.
Copy !req
58. And?
Copy !req
59. And I came to you. Go.
Copy !req
60. Well, there's fossil fuels,
like oil and coal.
Copy !req
61. - Too dirty.
- Oh. Hydro?
Copy !req
62. - Too wet.
- Solar?
Copy !req
63. With this fair skin? Next.
Copy !req
64. Wind?
Copy !req
65. You know what the problem
with wind is.
Copy !req
66. It's too reliant on wind.
Copy !req
67. I think I'm looking
Copy !req
68. for something
a little more indoors.
Copy !req
69. How about nuclear power?
Copy !req
70. It's clean and efficient
and very safe,
Copy !req
71. until something goes
horribly wrong.
Copy !req
72. That could work.
Copy !req
73. Oh. Goody.
Copy !req
74. Are we done?
Copy !req
75. Almost. I have one last question
about nuclear reactors.
Copy !req
76. What?
Copy !req
77. How do I build one? Go.
Copy !req
78. Spoiler alert: He didn't know.
Copy !req
79. Hello?
Copy !req
80. Hello, my little vicuña.
Copy !req
81. Well, hello to you, too.
Copy !req
82. And more importantly,
what is a vicuña?
Copy !req
83. Only what I feel is the cutest
camelid on the planet.
Copy !req
84. Well, I suppose I could ask you
what a camelid is,
Copy !req
85. but you're just gonna say
more words that I don't know.
Copy !req
86. What's up?
Copy !req
87. There's an upcoming event
at the university,
Copy !req
88. and I'd like you to be
my plus-one.
Copy !req
89. Oh. Well, I'd love to go.
Copy !req
90. - Wonderful! It's a date. Bye.
- Wait, wait.
Copy !req
91. Hang on there, partner.
I need a little more information.
Copy !req
92. When is this event?
Copy !req
93. This Friday night.
Copy !req
94. Oh. What time?
Copy !req
95. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
96. Well, will there be food?
Copy !req
97. I have no idea.
Copy !req
98. What's the dress code?
Copy !req
99. Not a clue.
Copy !req
100. Well, what do you know?
Copy !req
101. You're my plus-one.
Copy !req
102. Well, you go do a little more
research and get back to me.
Copy !req
103. - You got it!
- Bye.
Copy !req
104. - Wait.
- What?
Copy !req
105. - Love you!
- Love you, too.
Copy !req
106. Hello. Is this the studio that
makes the Professor Proton show?
Copy !req
107. Excellent.
Copy !req
108. May I speak to him, please?
Copy !req
109. Well, then I'd like
to leave him a message.
Copy !req
110. My name is Sheldon Cooper,
and I'm trying to build
Copy !req
111. a nuclear reactor,
and I could use his help.
Copy !req
112. My number is 409-356-6049.
Copy !req
113. Thank you.
I'm gonna hang up now,
Copy !req
114. because this is long-distance,
Copy !req
115. and my father
doesn't make much money.
Copy !req
116. Good-bye.
Copy !req
117. Georgie, question:
Copy !req
118. In the hallway earlier today,
were you upset or hungry?
Copy !req
119. Shut up.
Copy !req
120. That's hungry.
Copy !req
121. Connie, I believe
Copy !req
122. I have answers
to all your questions.
Copy !req
123. Lay it on me.
Copy !req
124. The event begins
at 6:00 p.m.
Copy !req
125. The dress code
is business attire.
Copy !req
126. Dinner will be served,
but it's been suggested
Copy !req
127. that we eat first,
because the food is dreadful.
Copy !req
128. Good to know.
Copy !req
129. And last but not least,
Copy !req
130. a camelid is any member
of the camelidae family,
Copy !req
131. such as llamas,
alpacas or vicuñas.
Copy !req
132. You didn't ask that one,
Copy !req
133. but, uh, it seemed like
something you should know.
Copy !req
134. John...
Copy !req
135. is everybody at this party
gonna be a scientist like you?
Copy !req
136. Not everybody.
You'll be there.
Copy !req
137. That's kind of
what I'm gettin' at.
Copy !req
138. Is there a problem?
Copy !req
139. Well...
Copy !req
140. yeah.
Copy !req
141. I didn't go to college.
Copy !req
142. I was a total screwup
in high school.
Copy !req
143. I might not fit in at all.
Copy !req
144. Don't be silly.
Everyone's gonna love you!
Copy !req
145. And I'm excited
to show you off.
Copy !req
146. The general consensus among
the faculty is you don't exist.
Copy !req
147. Well, I don't know
how I feel about that.
Copy !req
148. Oh, don't worry. It says more
about me than it does about you.
Copy !req
149. I'll get it.
Copy !req
150. It's like dating
the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Copy !req
151. Oh, hello, Sheldon.
Copy !req
152. Good evening.
Do you have any idea
Copy !req
153. where I could obtain
radioactive material?
Copy !req
154. That's an interesting question.
What do you need it for?
Copy !req
155. I'm trying to build
a small nuclear reactor
Copy !req
156. to provide electricity
for my house.
Copy !req
157. And possibly
the whole neighborhood,
Copy !req
158. if they're nice to me.
Copy !req
159. - Fun.
- The problem is, I don't know
Copy !req
160. where to get the necessary
radioactive material.
Copy !req
161. Oh. Do you happen to have
any unexploded atomic bombs?
Copy !req
162. Not a one.
Copy !req
163. Shoot.
Copy !req
164. What about an X-ray machine?
Copy !req
165. Nope.
Copy !req
166. That makes sense.
You're just a kid.
Copy !req
167. Oh! I know!
Copy !req
168. Smoke detectors
contain trace amounts
Copy !req
169. of americium-241.
Copy !req
170. Interesting.
Copy !req
171. But I'd need a lot of them,
and they're expensive.
Copy !req
172. True.
Copy !req
173. Hey, I bet if you
call a few companies
Copy !req
174. and say it's for
a school project,
Copy !req
175. you could get them for free.
Copy !req
176. That's a great idea. Thanks.
Copy !req
177. You're very welcome.
Copy !req
178. What a cute kid.
Copy !req
179. Who was that at the door?
Copy !req
180. - Sheldon.
- What did he want?
Copy !req
181. Oh, nothing.
He just had a science query.
Copy !req
182. Ooh, biscuits.
Copy !req
183. Where's Georgie?
Copy !req
184. I don't know.
I called him ten minutes ago.
Copy !req
185. He's probably
curled up in a ball,
Copy !req
186. crying about Veronica.
Copy !req
187. Why do you say that?
Copy !req
188. It's just what I'm hearing.
Copy !req
189. From who?
Copy !req
190. I'm kinda plugged
into this town.
Copy !req
191. I'll go check on him.
Copy !req
192. Where exactly are you getting
all this info?
Copy !req
193. There's a lot of kid
sisters out there.
Copy !req
194. We talk.
Copy !req
195. Honey?
Copy !req
196. Can I come in?
Copy !req
197. No.
Copy !req
198. Aw, baby,
everything all right?
Copy !req
199. I don't want to talk about it.
Copy !req
200. You might feel
better if you do.
Copy !req
201. Is it about a girl?
Copy !req
202. How do you know?
Copy !req
203. Sometimes a mother
can sense these things.
Copy !req
204. Veronica has a boyfriend.
Copy !req
205. You mean Dustin?
Copy !req
206. You know him?
Copy !req
207. Well, yeah, she met him
through the church.
Copy !req
208. Lovely young man.
Copy !req
209. You like him?
Copy !req
210. Oh. Well, um...
Copy !req
211. the Lord teaches us
to like everybody.
Copy !req
212. I just can't stop thinking
about her with another guy,
Copy !req
213. and it's making me crazy.
Copy !req
214. Aw. Why don't you come eat
something?
Copy !req
215. You'll feel better.
Copy !req
216. I can't.
Copy !req
217. I feel like I got punched
in the stomach.
Copy !req
218. Trust me,
Copy !req
219. this'll pass.
Copy !req
220. You will meet other girls.
Copy !req
221. They won't be Veronica.
Copy !req
222. Is he taller than me?
Copy !req
223. It doesn't matter.
Copy !req
224. It's what's inside a person
that counts.
Copy !req
225. How much taller?
Copy !req
226. A lot.
Copy !req
227. Mrs. Sparks' credit card
got declined at Payless.
Copy !req
228. No kidding.
Copy !req
229. She went nuts.
Copy !req
230. But you didn't hear it from me.
Copy !req
231. Mm.
Copy !req
232. Poor baby is just crushed.
Copy !req
233. Oh, man.
Copy !req
234. I've been through that.
Brutal.
Copy !req
235. When did I break your heart?
Copy !req
236. Oh, it wasn't you.
Copy !req
237. Then who was it?
Copy !req
238. Oh, doesn't matter.
It was a long time ago.
Copy !req
239. But who?
Copy !req
240. Dad, I don't want
to get ahead of myself,
Copy !req
241. but I think I solved
our electricity problem.
Copy !req
242. - Not now, Sheldon.
- I wouldn't mind hearing it.
Copy !req
243. Who?
Copy !req
244. If you want,
I'll ask around.
Copy !req
245. For many children,
Copy !req
246. their happiest memory
is the day they learned
Copy !req
247. to ride a bike.
Copy !req
248. For others, it's when they got
their first puppy.
Copy !req
249. For me, it was the day
Copy !req
250. I received a box
of 57 defective
Copy !req
251. smoke detectors
loaded with americium-241.
Copy !req
252. Yes!
Copy !req
253. "My dearest Veronica..." No.
Copy !req
254. "My beloved Veronica..."
Copy !req
255. Better. It's got "love" in it.
Copy !req
256. "Every minute I'm away from you
is an eternity.
Copy !req
257. But it feels longer than that.
Copy !req
258. I can't eat, I can't sleep,
Copy !req
259. it's like there's a hole
in my heart
Copy !req
260. that only your love can fill."
Copy !req
261. So true.
Copy !req
262. "And yes, I know about Dustin,
Copy !req
263. but he can't love you
the way I do.
Copy !req
264. Because my love
is the kind of love
Copy !req
265. that is true love.
Copy !req
266. The kind that lovers feel
Copy !req
267. when they're in love."
Copy !req
268. Beautiful.
Copy !req
269. "So in conclusion, I hope,
Copy !req
270. no, I pray,
Copy !req
271. I hope and pray
Copy !req
272. that you'll give me the chance
Copy !req
273. to be the boyfriend
you deserve.
Copy !req
274. And when the time is right,
Copy !req
275. I'm able to shower you
with diamonds, houses,
Copy !req
276. boats, and cars,
Copy !req
277. the husband of your dreams.
Copy !req
278. Loving you with my heart,
my soul,
Copy !req
279. and my lips,
Copy !req
280. Georgie Cooper."
Copy !req
281. Just tell me her name.
Copy !req
282. It's not important.
It was a long time ago.
Copy !req
283. Then how come I don't know
about it?
Copy !req
284. Because I married you,
and no one else matters.
Copy !req
285. If that's so,
Copy !req
286. why'd this mystery woman
break your heart?
Copy !req
287. Come on, Mare.
Copy !req
288. We were young.
Copy !req
289. We were kids.
Copy !req
290. Leave it alone.
Copy !req
291. Just tell me her name,
and I'll drop it forever.
Copy !req
292. You swear?
Copy !req
293. You know I don't swear.
Copy !req
294. You promise?
Copy !req
295. Absolutely.
Copy !req
296. - Kathryn Dempsey.
- Kathryn Dempsey?
Copy !req
297. You watched me make cupcakes
for her daughter's birthday,
Copy !req
298. and you never told me
you were in love with her?
Copy !req
299. I was 15 years old,
Copy !req
300. and she didn't love me back.
Copy !req
301. If she did,
Copy !req
302. would you have married
her instead of me?
Copy !req
303. But she didn't!
Copy !req
304. Okay!
Copy !req
305. Now I have my answer.
Copy !req
306. Kathryn Dempsey?
Copy !req
307. I was 15!
Copy !req
308. Hey, Sheldon.
Copy !req
309. Hello, Billy.
Copy !req
310. - What you doing?
- Building a nuclear reactor.
Copy !req
311. Cool. I'm having Lucky Charms
for dinner.
Copy !req
312. What are you gonna do with it
when you're done?
Copy !req
313. Stand in front of the
refrigerator as long as I want.
Copy !req
314. Cool.
Copy !req
315. Why are you eating
cereal for dinner?
Copy !req
316. I was hungry,
Copy !req
317. and my parents
are in their bedroom kissing.
Copy !req
318. What's this, a love note?
Copy !req
319. - Give that back!
- Oh, I don't think so.
Copy !req
320. "To my beloved Veronica,
Copy !req
321. Every minute I'm away
from you is an eternity.
Copy !req
322. But it feels longer than that.
Copy !req
323. "I can't eat,
I can't sleep,
Copy !req
324. it feels like there's a hole
in my heart that only you
Copy !req
325. Champagne?
Copy !req
326. Oh, I'm fine, thank you.
Copy !req
327. These are for me.
Copy !req
328. Are—are you all right?
Copy !req
329. No, I'm very nervous.
Copy !req
330. That's interesting.
Copy !req
331. Normally, I'm the one
who's unsure of himself
Copy !req
332. in a social situation,
Copy !req
333. but tonight, it's you.
Copy !req
334. Yeah.
Frickin' fascinating.
Copy !req
335. Dr. Sturgis,
good to see you.
Copy !req
336. Dr. Linkletter.
Copy !req
337. Please meet my girlfriend,
Copy !req
338. Connie Tucker.
Copy !req
339. Nice to meet you, Dr. Tucker.
Copy !req
340. I'm not a doctor.
Copy !req
341. But I would like
to point out,
Copy !req
342. she's quite real.
Copy !req
343. - I can see that.
- And our relationship
Copy !req
344. is more
Copy !req
345. - than just friends.
- That's enough.
Copy !req
346. In fact,
Copy !req
347. it's flat-out erotic.
Copy !req
348. Change the subject, John.
Copy !req
349. You got it, girlfriend.
Copy !req
350. Dr. Linkletter is working
on an intriguing theory
Copy !req
351. of quantum gravity.
Copy !req
352. - Is that so?
- He can explain it
Copy !req
353. much better than I can.
Copy !req
354. Are you familiar at all
with string theory?
Copy !req
355. Remind me.
Copy !req
356. Well, basically, it's a string
theoretic interpretation
Copy !req
357. of the graviton.
Copy !req
358. Every force is an exchange
of particles.
Copy !req
359. Gravity is the exchange
of gravitons.
Copy !req
360. Meemaw, are you even listening?
Copy !req
361. What?
Copy !req
362. The graviton
is a massless string.
Copy !req
363. The graviton is
a massless string.
Copy !req
364. - Wow!
- Well, yes, it is.
Copy !req
365. When did you learn that?
Copy !req
366. I get around.
Copy !req
367. In fact,
I would go so far as to say
Copy !req
368. that every force is an exchange
of particles,
Copy !req
369. and gravity
is an exchange of gravitons.
Copy !req
370. Correct!
Copy !req
371. Yes!
Copy !req
372. John, where have you
been hiding her?
Copy !req
373. I haven't.
Copy !req
374. I've talked about her
quite a bit,
Copy !req
375. but you all said she was
a figment of my imagination.
Copy !req
376. She's dynamite.
Copy !req
377. Hello. I'd like to speak
to Arthur Jeffries.
Copy !req
378. He plays Professor Proton.
Copy !req
379. But you probably know that,
Copy !req
380. since you answer the phone
at the station
Copy !req
381. that makes the show,
you lucky duck.
Copy !req
382. Then I'd like to leave him
another message.
Copy !req
383. Please tell him Sheldon Cooper
called again
Copy !req
384. and that
I've successfully obtained
Copy !req
385. the radioactive material
that I'm looking for.
Copy !req
386. Yes, americium-241.
Copy !req
387. I have lots of it.
Copy !req
388. I live at 5501 Grant Avenue,
Copy !req
389. Medford, Texas.
Copy !req
390. If you're sending me
an autographed picture,
Copy !req
391. I already have one.
Copy !req
392. Ooh, how about one
of his bow ties?
Copy !req
393. And then Bryan Larkin
read the letter
Copy !req
394. - out loud in the hall.
- No.
Copy !req
395. Georgie used the word "love,"
like, 30 times.
Copy !req
396. It was pathetic.
Copy !req
397. That hurts to hear.
Copy !req
398. Really? I think it's hilarious.
Copy !req
399. Also, my math teacher's
pregnant.
Copy !req
400. Well, that's nice.
Copy !req
401. It might not be her husband's.
Copy !req
402. Whose do you think it is?
Copy !req
403. Hey.
Copy !req
404. Hey.
Copy !req
405. Going somewhere?
Copy !req
406. Alaska.
Gonna work on the pipeline.
Copy !req
407. Alaska, huh?
Copy !req
408. That—that's pretty far.
Copy !req
409. Not far enough,
but it'll have to do.
Copy !req
410. Look, Georgie,
Copy !req
411. I know it feels bad
right now, but...
Copy !req
412. I promise it'll get better.
Copy !req
413. How's it gonna get better?
Copy !req
414. Veronica thinks I'm a jerk,
Copy !req
415. and everyone in the school's
calling me Lovey Cooper.
Copy !req
416. Oof, that is not a good name.
Copy !req
417. It doesn't matter, 'cause I'm
never going back to that school.
Copy !req
418. Listen to me.
Hey.
Copy !req
419. You're a good-looking kid,
and you got a big heart.
Copy !req
420. Once we get you
on a daily shower schedule,
Copy !req
421. the girls
are gonna be lining up.
Copy !req
422. I don't want girls.
Copy !req
423. I want Veronica.
Copy !req
424. Yeah, maybe you'll get her
and maybe you won't.
Copy !req
425. But someday,
you'll find the woman
Copy !req
426. who was really meant for you.
Copy !req
427. You mean like
Kathryn Dempsey?
Copy !req
428. Alaska's beautiful.
Copy !req
429. How 'bout I go with you?
Copy !req
430. Who's Kathryn Dempsey?
Copy !req
431. I was 15 years—
Copy !req
432. I was 15 years old!
Copy !req
433. Connie, tell me,
did you grow up in Texas?
Copy !req
434. Took my first bath
in a ten-gallon hat.
Copy !req
435. That's wonderful.
Copy !req
436. My goodness, you're as funny
as you are beautiful.
Copy !req
437. That's a nice thing to say
Copy !req
438. to your friend's
girlfriend.
Copy !req
439. Actually, I don't think
it is so nice.
Copy !req
440. If I didn't know any better,
Copy !req
441. I'd say you were sweet-talking
my date right in front of me.
Copy !req
442. You're a pretty smart man, John.
Trust your gut.
Copy !req
443. Oh, look!
Copy !req
444. Shrimp cocktail.
Let's get some.
Copy !req
445. Now, hang on.
Hey. Take your hand off her,
Copy !req
446. or there are gonna be
some severe consequences.
Copy !req
447. Whoa, John, calm down.
Copy !req
448. What do you see in this guy?
Copy !req
449. All right, that's it!
Copy !req
450. Oh, boy,
you shouldn't have done that.
Copy !req
451. Oh!
Copy !req
452. That's enough! Both of you,
just cool your jets.
Copy !req
453. This isn't over,
Dr. Linkletter!
Copy !req
454. Anytime, anyplace,
Dr. Sturgis.
Copy !req
455. And your graviton research
is mediocre at best!
Copy !req
456. Keep moving.
Copy !req
457. - Are you angry with me?
- More turned on.
Copy !req
458. Ooh. Great. Let's go.
Copy !req
459. Good morning, Mary.
Copy !req
460. Hmm.
Copy !req
461. What's that about?
Copy !req
462. - I'm punishing him.
- What for?
Copy !req
463. Nothing, really,
Copy !req
464. but once I got started,
I couldn't stop.
Copy !req
465. I'll get it!
Copy !req
466. The hell?
Copy !req
467. Sheldon Cooper live here?
Copy !req
468. Mare!
Copy !req
469. Am I in trouble?
