Scene: The stairwell.


Leonard: So you see, what you’re eating is not technically yoghurt, because it doesn’t have enough live acidophilus cultures. It’s really just iced milk with carragenin added for thickness.


Penny: Oh, that’s very interesting.


Leonard: It’s also not pink and has no berries.


Penny: Yeah, but it doesn’t really answer my question.


Leonard: What was your question again?


Penny: Do you want some.


Leonard: Oh, right, no, I’m lactose intolerant.


Penny: Right.


Leonard: So, gas.


Penny: Got it.


Leonard: Well, good night. (They kiss. Camera cuts away to a wall mounted security cam above the lift. Leonard spots its movement and shuffles Penny away.)


Penny: What are you doing?


Leonard: There was a draft.


Penny: I didn’t feel a draft.


Leonard: Why don’t we just go into your….


Penny: Oh, yeah, you know what, maybe we should just slow things down a little.


Leonard: No, no, I didn’t mean to go into your apartment to… go fast.


Penny: No, I know, I… I know what you meant, it’s just… it’s only our first date.


Leonard: Yeah, okay, sure, no problem, why don’t we just figure out where we’re going, and when we want to get there, and then rate of speed equals distance over time. Solve for R.


Penny: Or we could just wing it.


Leonard: That might work too.


Penny: Goodnight Leonard.


Leonard: Goodnight. (He throws the camera a dirty look.)


Cut to inside the apartment.


Raj: He’s coming. Screen saver.


Howard: Oh, hey, Leonard, how was your date?


Leonard: Bite me. Sheldon, how could you just sit there and let them spy on me?


Sheldon: They were clever, Leonard. They exploited my complete lack of interest in what you were doing.


Howard: You should thank us. When future generations try to determine why your relationship with Penny crashed and burned, this right here is the black box.


Leonard: What are you talking about, the date went fine.


Raj: Dude, she said she wants to slow things down.


Leonard: Okay, so, she said she wants to slow things down. It’s like saying “I’m really enjoying this meal, I’m going to slow down and savour it.”


Howard: No, it’s like “this fish tastes bad, so I’m going to slow down and spit it out.”


Raj: You being the fish.


Leonard: I’m not the fish.


Howard: Oh really, did you make a second date.


Leonard: Well, we sort of decided to wing it.


Sheldon: Oh, even I know that’s lame.


Leonard: Okay, alright, let’s assume your hypothesis. We went to dinner, we talked, we laughed, we kissed, where could I have possibly gone wrong.


 Howard: Think back, Leonard, the littlest things can set women off. Like, hey, the waitress is hot, I bet we could get her to come home with us. Or, how much does your mom weigh, I want to know what I’m getting into.


Leonard: I didn’t say anything like that.


Howard: Good, ‘cos they don’t work.


Raj: They also don’t care for it if you stare at them and hyperventilate. Sadly, that’s my home run swing.


Leonard: Look, everything went fine. I didn’t even have to refer to my impromptu conversation starters. The woman across the hall is into me.


Howard: Let’s go to the tape. Look at her reaction to the goodnight kiss, no change in respiration, pupils un-dilated, no flushing of the chest.


Raj: Nice close up, by the way.


Sheldon: Interesting, her jaws are clenched, no tongue access, clearly a bad sign amongst mating humans.


Leonard: That’s not a bad sign.


Sheldon: Please, you might as well have been two iguana with no dewlap enlargement.


Raj: And the worst sign of all is, you’re here and not there.


Leonard: I’m not there because I’m taking things slow. Which, by the way, compared to you guys approaches warp speed. And take down that camera.


Raj: He was a lot more fun when he had no hope.


Howard: Give him time.


Credits sequence


Scene: The laundry room. Sheldon is folding shirts.


Penny (entering): Hi.


Sheldon: Oh, hi Penny. FYI, the hot water is inadequate on machine 2 so colours only, and 4 is still releasing the fabric softener too early in the cycle so I’d avoid using that for your delicates.


Penny (tipping all her laundry into one machine at once): Thanks.


Sheldon: Oh, good Lord. Why don’t you just take your clothes down to the river and beat them with a rock?


Penny: Sheldon, may I ask you a question?


Sheldon: I would prefer that you not, but I won’t go so far as to forbid it.


Penny: Alright, I heard yes, so… okay, here’s my question, has Leonard ever dated, you know, a regular girl.


Sheldon: Well I assume you’re not referring to digestive regularity? Because I’ve come to learn that such inquiries are inappropriate.


Penny: No, I meant has he ever been involved with someone who wasn’t a braniac?


Sheldon: Oh. Well, a few years ago he did go out with a woman who had a PhD in French Literature.


Penny: How is that not a braniac?


Sheldon: Well, for one thing, she was French. For another, it was literature.


Penny: So, do you think that if Leonard and I keep dating he’ll eventually get bored with me.


Sheldon: That depends.


Penny: On what?


Sheldon: Do you have a working knowledge of quantum physics?


Penny: No.


Sheldon: Do you speak Klingon?


Penny: No.


Sheldon: Do you know any card tricks?


Penny: Okay, okay, you know, I get it, Leonard has no business being involved with a waitress slash actress who felt so insecure that she lied to him about finishing community college.


Sheldon: Why would you lie about that?


Penny: Well, he was going on and on about this college and that grad school and I didn’t want him to think I was some stupid loser.


Sheldon: You thought the opposite of stupid loser was community college graduate?


Penny: You know, there are a lot of successful people in this country who are community college graduates.


Sheldon: Yeah, but you were neither.


Penny: Right, okay look, this is between you and me, you cannot tell Leonard any of this.


Sheldon: You’re asking me to keep a secret?


Penny: Yeah.







Sheldon: Well I’m sorry, but you would have had to express that desire before revealing the secret, so that I could choose whether or not I wanted to accept the covenant of secret keeping. You can’t impose a secret on an ex post facto basis.


Penny: What?


Sheldon: Secret keeping is a complicated endeavour. One has to be concerned not only about what one says, but about facial expression, autonomic reflexes, when I try to deceive, I myself have more nervous tics than a lyme disease research facility. (Long pause.) It’s a joke. It relies on the hominymic relationship between tick the blood-sucking arachnid, and tic the involuntary muscular contraction. I made it up myself.


Penny: Okay, look, if Leonard finds out that I lied, I will absolutely die of embarrassment.


Sheldon: Physiologically impossible.


Penny: Oh Sheldon, please, look, I’m asking you as a friend.


Sheldon: So you’re saying that friendship contains within it an inherent obligation to maintain confidences?


Penny: Well, yeah.


Sheldon: Interesting. See, one more question, and perhaps I should have led with this, when did we become friends?


Scene: The stairwell.


Sheldon: I.e, I couldn’t become Green Lantern unless I was chosen by the guardians of Oa, but given enough start-up capital and an adequate research facility, I could be Batman.


Leonard: You could be Batman?


Sheldon: Sure. (In a gravelly voice) I’m Batman. See.


Penny (arriving): Hi guys.


Leonard: Hey.


Sheldon (looking the other way uncomfortably): Hi Penny.


Leonard: Hey, Penny, if you’re not doing anything Friday night I thought maybe we could go and see a movie.


Penny: Oh, um, you know, I think I have the dinner shift on Friday.


Leonard: What about Saturday?


Penny: You know, I’m not sure, the manager hasn’t posted the schedule yet, how about I let you know.


Leonard: Great. So you just let me know when you know. So… (she leaves) Oh God, I am the bad fish! What did I do wrong?


Sheldon: Why are you asking me, I have no information about your interactions with Penny other than what you provided me, nor do I have any method of learning such things. (Runs away.)


Leonard (chasing him): What does that mean?


Sheldon: Nothing. You seem to be implying an informational back channel between me and Penny where obviously none exists.


Leonard: No I didn’t.


Sheldon: I just think you need to be careful how you phrase things, sir.


Leonard: What’s going on with you?


Sheldon: Well I might ask you the same question. Why do you insist on attempting to drag me into matters which have nothing to do with me? But exist between you and Penny. A person to whom I barely speak. (His eye begins to twitch.)


Leonard: What’s wrong with your face?


Sheldon: There’s no reason to bring my looks into this. Good day, Leonard.


Leonard: What?


Sheldon: I said Good Day! (He leaves)


Leonard: Good day?


Scene: The Cheesecake Factory


Penny: Also today we have a fresh caught Alaska salmon, and that’s served with a teriyaki glaze and sticky rice. Our soup of the day…


Sheldon (appearing behind her): You must release me from my oath.


Penny: Sheldon, I’m working.


Sheldon: Why don’t you take a minute to decide (leads her away) I can’t keep your secret Penny. I’m going to fold like an energy based anobo protein in conformational space. Like a renaissance triptych. Like a cheap suit.


Penny: Oh, look, why is it so hard for you to keep one little secret?


Sheldon: I’m constitutionally incapable. That’s why I was refused clearance for a very prestigious government research fellowship at a secret military supercollider, located beneath a fake agricultural station 12.5 miles south east of Travers City, Michigan. Which you did not hear about from me.


Penny: Look, just forget I told you about me not graduating from community college. Okay?


Sheldon: Forget! You want me to forget? This mind does not forget. I haven’t forgotten a single thing since the day my mother stopped breast feeding me. It was a drizzly Tuesday.


Penny: Okay, look, you promised me you would keep my secret so you’re just going to have to figure out a way to do it.


Scene: The apartment.


Sheldon (entering): Leonard, I’m moving out.


Leonard: What do you mean, you’re moving out? Why?


Sheldon: There doesn’t have to be a reason.


Leonard: Yeah, there kind of does.


Sheldon: Not necessarily. This is a classic example of munchausen’s trilemma. Either the reason is predicated on a series of sub-reasons leading to an infinite regression, or it tracks back to arbitrary axiomatic statements, or it’s ultimately circular, i.e., I’m moving out because I’m moving out.


Leonard: I’m still confused.


Sheldon: Leonard, I don’t see how I could have made it any simpler.


Howard (entering): Hey, qu’est q’wass up?


Raj: We just got back from that exhibit of those plasticised human cadavers.


Howard: And some of those skinless chicks were hot.


Sheldon: If you’ll excuse me, I’m going to pack.


Howard: That’s kind of an overreaction to a little harmless necrophilia.


Leonard: It’s not you, Howard, he says he’s moving out.


Raj: What did you do? Did you change the contrast or brightness settings on the television?


Leonard: No.


Raj: Did you take a band aid off in front of him?


Leonard: No.


Howard: Did you buy generic ketchup, forget to rinse the sink, talk to him through the bathroom door?


Raj: Adjust the thermostat, cook with cilantro, pronounce the T in often?


Leonard: No.


Howard: Did you make fun of trains?


Leonard: I didn’t do anything, he’s just gone insane.


Raj: Well, we all knew this day was coming.


Leonard: That was fast.


Sheldon: It’s my pre-packed disaster evacuation bag. Recommended by the department of homeland security. And Sarah Connor.


Leonard: Where are you gonna live?


Sheldon: Until I find a permanent place I will stay with friends.


Howard: Bye (runs out.)


Raj: Well you can’t stay with me, I have a teeny tiny apartment.


Sheldon: Excuse me, but isn’t hosting guests an aspect of Menushya Yajna, one of the five central religious duties or sacrifices of the Hindu householder?


Raj: I hate trains.


Sheldon: Don’t be ridiculous, you love trains.


Raj: Yes I do, come on. See you later Leonard. (Sheldon drops keys in bowl and leaves without a word.)


Leonard: This could work.


Scene: Raj’s apartment.


Sheldon: This is a very old building.


Raj: Sixty years. Used to be a watch factory.


Sheldon: Uh-oh.


Raj: What?


Sheldon: Don’t you worry about the residual radium from the luminous dials?


Raj: Not until now.


Sheldon: I can’t believe I didn’t bring my gieger counter. You know, I had it on my bed and I didn’t pack it.


Raj: Well, if you’re not comfortable staying here, Sheldon…


Sheldon: I’m kidding, I packed it. It was a joke, I was subverting the conversational expectations. I believe they call that the, um, old switcheroo.


Raj: Terrific.


Sheldon (referring to Bollywood singing on television): Is that woman Aishwarya Rai?


Raj: Yes, isn’t she an amazing actress.


Sheldon: Actually, I’d say she’s a poor man’s Madhuri Dixit.


Raj: How dare you. Aishwarya Rai is a Goddess. By comparison Madhuri Dixit is a leprous prostitute.


Sheldon: Sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you. Obviously you’re not that familiar with Indian cinema.


Scene: Howard’s house. The door rings.


Howard: Who is it?


Voice: Strippergram. (Howard opens door. Outside are Raj and Sheldon.)


Raj: Tag. You’re it. (Runs away.)


Howard: Shouldn’t you have put him in a brown paper bag and set him on fire?


Scene: Howard’s bedroom. Howard is in bed, Sheldon is on a blow up mattress on the floor.


Sheldon: I’ve never slept on an air mattress before. No lumbar support whatsoever.


Howard: Maybe you’d be happier on a park bench?


Sheldon: I don’t see any way to get a park bench in here.







Howard: Do you want to switch?


Sheldon: No, that’s fine. I’m perfectly comfortable sleeping on a bouncy castle.


Howard: Get out of bed, we’re switching.


Sheldon: Now, only if you want to.


Howard: Just get in the bed!


Howard’s mother (off): What’s going on? Are you boys roughhousing?


Howard: We’re just talking ma.


Howard’s mother: If you don’t settle down right now, I’m not going to let you have any more sleepovers.


Howard: For God’s sake, ma, I’m 27 years old. It’s not even a school night! (To Sheldon) Comfy now?


Sheldon: Meh. That poster of Halle Berry’s a little unnerving.


Howard: So don’t look at it.


Sheldon: She’s like my fourth favourite catwoman.


Howard: No kidding?


Sheldon: Yeah, Julie Newmar, Michelle Pfieffer, Eartha Kitt and then her.


Howard: What about Lee Meriwether?


Sheldon: Oh, I forgot about Lee Meriwether.


Howard: Well I’m glad that’s settled.


Sheldon: That makes Halle Berry my fifth favourite catwoman. There’s Julie Newmar, Michelle Pfieffer, Eartha Kitt, Lee Meriwether…


Howard: Please, I’m begging you, go to sleep.


Sheldon: I’m trying, I’m counting catwomen. She did make a fine mutant in the X-Men movies though.


Howard: Oh for God’s sake.


Sheldon: But she’s not my favourite of the X-Men, in order that would be Wolverine, Cyclops, oh wait, I forgot Professor X. Professor X, Wolverine, Cyclops, Iceman, then Storm, Angel, the Beast, oh wait, Nightcrawler. Professor X, Nightcrawler, Wolverine, Cyclops, Iceman, then Storm, Angel….


Scene: Sheldon and Leonard’s apartment. There is an urgent rapping at the door.


Leonard: I’m coming! (Opens the door. Sheldon falls inside, wearing his pyjamas. Howard is outside.)


Sheldon: Hey, there he is, there’s my old buddy-bud-bud.


Leonard: What’s with him?


Howard: Koothrappali dumped him on me, and he couldn’t get to sleep, so I gave him a glass of warm milk with a handful of my mom’s valium in it. But he still wouldn’t shut up, so, tag, you’re it.


Sheldon: I’m ba-ack!


Leonard: I still don’t know why you left.


Sheldon: I can’t tell you.


Leonard: Why not.


Sheldon: I promised Penny.


Leonard: You promised Penny what?


Sheldon: That I wouldn’t tell you the secret. Shhhhh!


Leonard: What secret. Tell me the secret.


Sheldon: Mom smokes in the car. Jesus is okay with it, but we can’t tell Dad.


Leonard: Not that secret, the other secret.


Sheldon: I’m Batman. Shhhhh!


Leonard: Dammit, Sheldon! You said Penny told you a secret, what was the secret.


Sheldon: Okay, I’ll tell you, but you can’t tell Leonard.


Leonard: I promise.


Sheldon: Penny lied about graduating from community college because she is afraid she’s not smart enough for Leonard.


Leonard: So it’s nothing I did? It’s her problem?


Sheldon: I drank milk that tasted funny.


Leonard: Penny thinks I’m too smart for her, that’s ridiculous.


Sheldon: I know, most of your work is extremely derivative. Don’t worry, that’s not a secret. Everybody knows.


Scene: The hallway. Leonard is outside Penny’s door.


Penny (opening door): Hi.


Leonard: Yeah, hi, listen, I know what’s been bothering you about us, and I have the answer.


Penny: What are you talking about.


Leonard: First I want to say that it’s not Sheldon’s fault, he tried very hard to keep your secret, if Howard hadn’t drugged him he would have taken it to his grave.


Penny: He told you?


Leonard: Yes, but it’s okay. Now that we know what the problem is, there’s a simple solution. (Hands her a brochure.)


Penny: Pasadena city college?


Leonard: A place for fun, a place for knowledge. See, this man here’s playing hacky sack, and this girl’s going to be a paralegal.


Penny: Wow, I get it, because Dr Leonard Hofstadter can’t date a girl without a fancy college degree.


Leonard: Well, it’s really not that fancy, it’s just a city college.


Penny: Right, but I have to have some sort of degree to date you?


Leonard: That doesn’t matter to me at all.


Penny: So, it’s fine with you if I’m not smart.


Leonard: Absolutely. (She slams the door in his face.) Okay, this time I know where I went wrong. (Looking up and seeing the camera) Oh bite me!
