1
00:00:01,562 --> 00:00:03,182
Previously on
The Big Bang Theory...
2
00:00:03,384 --> 00:00:05,579
So I told my mom
she just needed to back off.
3
00:00:05,580 --> 00:00:07,496
This is our wedding,
and if anyone's gonna
4
00:00:07,497 --> 00:00:10,932
design the floral arrangements,
it's going to be my man.
5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,967
Thank you.
6
00:00:13,456 --> 00:00:15,689
I mean, I-I'm not trying
to be a Groomzilla,
7
00:00:15,758 --> 00:00:18,192
but... this is my specialty.
8
00:00:21,364 --> 00:00:22,778
Everything okay?
9
00:00:22,779 --> 00:00:24,445
Yeah, it's just
Anu's doorbell camera.
10
00:00:24,514 --> 00:00:25,980
I helped her install it.
11
00:00:26,049 --> 00:00:27,782
You can't look at it.
That's spying.
12
00:00:27,851 --> 00:00:29,150
Who the hell is this guy?
13
00:00:29,219 --> 00:00:30,251
Ooh, let me see.
14
00:00:32,122 --> 00:00:34,088
So you're still talking
to your ex-boyfriend?
15
00:00:34,157 --> 00:00:35,990
Yes, and I'm not gonna
apologize for that.
16
00:00:36,059 --> 00:00:38,326
And you need to delete
that app from your phone.
17
00:00:38,394 --> 00:00:39,961
Because you're hiding
something from me?
18
00:00:40,029 --> 00:00:41,496
No, because you
should trust me!
19
00:00:41,564 --> 00:00:44,599
How can I trust you?!
I barely even know you!
20
00:00:44,667 --> 00:00:46,334
Then what are we doing?
21
00:00:46,402 --> 00:00:47,969
I don't know.
22
00:00:50,306 --> 00:00:51,739
- Oh!
- Aah,
23
00:00:51,808 --> 00:00:53,541
sad man!
24
00:00:55,745 --> 00:00:57,211
This is so great.
25
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:58,646
Why don't we do it
more often?
26
00:00:58,715 --> 00:01:00,481
Because you have two kids,
27
00:01:00,550 --> 00:01:01,749
I have Sheldon,
28
00:01:01,818 --> 00:01:03,684
and Penny's apparently
in the gym all the time,
29
00:01:03,753 --> 00:01:05,586
'cause damn, look at her!
30
00:01:06,823 --> 00:01:08,322
Yeah, so impressive
how you manage
31
00:01:08,391 --> 00:01:10,792
to bounce back
after having no babies.
32
00:01:12,162 --> 00:01:14,462
Ah, another reason why
we don't do this more often.
33
00:01:15,899 --> 00:01:18,099
You've come
to a giant metal door.
34
00:01:18,168 --> 00:01:21,602
I check the door
for traps.
35
00:01:21,671 --> 00:01:23,604
There are no traps.
36
00:01:23,673 --> 00:01:24,806
I use my wizard eye
37
00:01:24,874 --> 00:01:27,241
to see what's on the
other side of the door.
38
00:01:27,310 --> 00:01:29,844
Hey, that's sort of like how
you used a doorbell camera
39
00:01:29,913 --> 00:01:32,580
to spy on your fiancée.
40
00:01:33,750 --> 00:01:35,550
No, it's nothing like that.
41
00:01:35,618 --> 00:01:37,518
Your wizard eye
reveals a monster.
42
00:01:37,587 --> 00:01:40,054
- Oh. Is it alone and unloved?
- I guess.
43
00:01:40,123 --> 00:01:43,090
I open the door and say,
"Hey, Raj."
44
00:01:44,460 --> 00:01:46,394
I have a bottle
of champagne for you.
45
00:01:46,462 --> 00:01:47,962
Oh, we didn't order this.
46
00:01:48,031 --> 00:01:50,431
It's from the gentleman
at the end of the bar.
47
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:53,034
Oh. Well, if we drink it,
does that mean
48
00:01:53,102 --> 00:01:54,602
we're making a promise?
49
00:01:54,671 --> 00:01:57,572
'Cause I am happily married,
although I will watch.
50
00:01:58,942 --> 00:02:01,075
We're not gonna do anything.
51
00:02:01,144 --> 00:02:03,778
Really?
So all that work's for Leonard?
52
00:02:05,849 --> 00:02:07,682
Why don't you just
call her? I'm sure
53
00:02:07,750 --> 00:02:08,983
you guys can work this out.
54
00:02:09,052 --> 00:02:10,763
I don't want to talk about it.
Let's just play.
55
00:02:10,787 --> 00:02:11,986
Okay, the cyclops tells you
56
00:02:12,055 --> 00:02:13,754
that the enchantress
you seek is staying
57
00:02:13,823 --> 00:02:15,623
at the Inn of the Dwarven Lords.
58
00:02:15,692 --> 00:02:17,658
Really? An inn?
59
00:02:17,727 --> 00:02:19,493
Anu is a concierge at a hotel.
60
00:02:19,562 --> 00:02:20,606
That's a little insensitive,
61
00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:21,996
don't you think?
62
00:02:22,065 --> 00:02:24,532
I hadn't noticed that
before you mentioned it.
63
00:02:24,601 --> 00:02:26,308
Well, now that I've
mentioned it, how do you feel?
64
00:02:26,332 --> 00:02:26,902
Bad.
65
00:02:26,903 --> 00:02:28,569
Shame on you.
66
00:02:28,638 --> 00:02:30,738
- Hey, ladies.
- Zack!
67
00:02:30,807 --> 00:02:32,106
Hi. You guys
know Zack.
68
00:02:32,175 --> 00:02:33,341
- Yeah.
- Of course.
69
00:02:33,409 --> 00:02:34,842
Did-did you
send this over?
70
00:02:34,911 --> 00:02:37,511
I did. I asked for the
most expensive one they have.
71
00:02:37,580 --> 00:02:39,013
They said it was $200,
72
00:02:39,082 --> 00:02:41,315
and I said
I want a more expensive one.
73
00:02:41,384 --> 00:02:44,719
And then, they said it was $300.
74
00:02:47,123 --> 00:02:48,723
But it-it was the same...
75
00:02:48,791 --> 00:02:50,858
Don't.
76
00:02:50,927 --> 00:02:53,387
Thank you, but you shouldn't
have spent so much.
77
00:02:53,411 --> 00:02:54,096
Nah.
78
00:02:54,097 --> 00:02:57,231
It's cool. I sold my company
for a boatload of money.
79
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:58,733
And then I bought a boat.
80
00:02:59,836 --> 00:03:01,302
Then I got married.
81
00:03:01,371 --> 00:03:02,770
Guess where.
82
00:03:02,839 --> 00:03:04,305
On your boat?
83
00:03:04,374 --> 00:03:07,441
No, but that would've
been awesome!
84
00:03:08,544 --> 00:03:11,045
Well, congratulations.
85
00:03:11,114 --> 00:03:12,713
Hey, you and Leonard
86
00:03:12,782 --> 00:03:15,316
should come over and have
dinner with us on our boat.
87
00:03:15,385 --> 00:03:17,985
Yeah, that would be so nice.
88
00:03:18,054 --> 00:03:20,855
Leonard was just saying
how he was hoping to have dinner
89
00:03:20,924 --> 00:03:23,658
with one of your ex-boyfriends
on his expensive boat.
90
00:03:25,662 --> 00:03:27,273
- Well, then this worked out perfect!

101
00:03:54,991 --> 00:03:56,558
Hey. How was game night?
102
00:03:56,626 --> 00:03:58,393
Oh, off the charts.
103
00:03:58,462 --> 00:04:00,328
Literally.
Sheldon rolled a number so high,
104
00:04:00,397 --> 00:04:02,330
it wasn't on any
of these charts.
105
00:04:02,399 --> 00:04:03,965
That's funny.
106
00:04:04,034 --> 00:04:05,667
Wow. I should not have
driven home.
107
00:04:08,038 --> 00:04:09,337
How was ladies' night?
108
00:04:09,406 --> 00:04:11,873
It was fun. Amy got drunk
and kept telling us
109
00:04:11,942 --> 00:04:15,777
that Sheldon's chest is smooth
like a porpoise.
110
00:04:15,846 --> 00:04:18,746
Well, it does squeak
when you touch it.
111
00:04:18,815 --> 00:04:20,815
And we ran into Zack.
112
00:04:20,884 --> 00:04:22,884
Oh. Yeah? How's he doing?
113
00:04:22,953 --> 00:04:25,286
- He got married.
- Oh. Well, that's nice.
114
00:04:25,355 --> 00:04:28,523
Yeah, and he sold his company
for a fortune and retired.
115
00:04:28,592 --> 00:04:30,525
Huh.
116
00:04:32,262 --> 00:04:35,363
And you ended up with me,
so everybody wins.
117
00:04:35,432 --> 00:04:38,333
Wait. You're not
jealous of Zack, are you?
118
00:04:38,401 --> 00:04:40,301
What? Oh, absolutely not.
119
00:04:40,370 --> 00:04:42,257
In fact, he should be jealous
of me because I have you.
120
00:04:42,281 --> 00:04:42,705
Oh.
121
00:04:42,706 --> 00:04:45,707
And a dungeon with over 30 rooms
left unexplored
122
00:04:45,775 --> 00:04:47,876
because no one thought
to search for secret doors
123
00:04:47,944 --> 00:04:49,978
under the wizard's throne.
124
00:04:50,046 --> 00:04:52,747
Oh. You know, I'd
like to go exploring.
125
00:04:52,816 --> 00:04:55,316
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
126
00:04:55,385 --> 00:04:56,918
Well, I'll get the dice
back out.
127
00:05:07,163 --> 00:05:09,797
Go away, Raj!
128
00:05:13,003 --> 00:05:15,136
What are you doing?
129
00:05:15,205 --> 00:05:17,939
I'm winning you back
Love Actually style.
130
00:05:23,813 --> 00:05:25,213
I don't know what that means.
131
00:05:25,282 --> 00:05:28,182
Really? You've never
seen Love Actually?
132
00:05:28,251 --> 00:05:31,553
If you want to watch it
right now, I'll just wait.
133
00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:35,156
I have nothing to say to you.
134
00:05:35,225 --> 00:05:37,091
Look, we both made mistakes.
135
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,061
I am so sorry that
I spied on you.
136
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:42,764
I didn't mean to, but
I know it was not okay.
137
00:05:44,434 --> 00:05:47,335
Now, do you want
to apologize to me?
138
00:05:47,404 --> 00:05:51,372
You also said you don't trust me
and that you barely know me.
139
00:05:51,441 --> 00:05:54,776
I really thought this would be
more of a back-and-forth thing.
140
00:05:54,844 --> 00:05:58,346
Honestly, Raj, why do you even
want to marry me?
141
00:05:58,415 --> 00:06:02,183
You know, family
and India and stuff.
142
00:06:02,252 --> 00:06:03,918
Here's what I think.
143
00:06:03,987 --> 00:06:05,587
All of your friends are married,
144
00:06:05,655 --> 00:06:07,622
and you don't want
to be left behind.
145
00:06:07,691 --> 00:06:10,258
And honestly, that's not
a good enough reason.
146
00:06:10,327 --> 00:06:14,028
Uh, okay, well, how
is that different
147
00:06:14,097 --> 00:06:16,030
than what you're doing? Hmm?
148
00:06:16,099 --> 00:06:17,365
Worried that you wasted
149
00:06:17,434 --> 00:06:20,168
so many years dating the
wrong people, and now,
150
00:06:20,236 --> 00:06:22,170
you're just looking
for a shortcut.
151
00:06:23,773 --> 00:06:25,740
You're right.
It's not different.
152
00:06:25,809 --> 00:06:26,941
Okay, so we agree.
153
00:06:27,010 --> 00:06:29,010
- Yeah.
- Great.
154
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:30,845
Wait. What did we
just agree on?
155
00:06:30,914 --> 00:06:34,549
That we shouldn't
see each other anymore.
156
00:06:34,618 --> 00:06:36,618
You know what?
157
00:06:36,686 --> 00:06:39,621
Why don't you shut the door,
and I'll just do the cards?
158
00:06:48,465 --> 00:06:51,232
Uh, do you remember
Penny's ex-boyfriend Zack?
159
00:06:51,301 --> 00:06:54,135
Leonard, I remember all
of Penny's ex-boyfriends.
160
00:06:54,204 --> 00:06:56,838
If you'd like, I could
list them alphabetically.
161
00:06:56,906 --> 00:06:58,406
No, thank you.
162
00:06:58,475 --> 00:06:59,641
Fun fact.
You would think
163
00:06:59,709 --> 00:07:01,776
Zack would be
the last one on the list,
164
00:07:01,845 --> 00:07:05,246
but she also dated two Zekes.
165
00:07:05,315 --> 00:07:07,682
Well, apparently,
Zack sold his company
166
00:07:07,751 --> 00:07:09,584
for a ton of money and retired.
167
00:07:09,653 --> 00:07:11,219
And that bothers you?
168
00:07:11,287 --> 00:07:13,688
I don't know. I mean...
169
00:07:13,757 --> 00:07:15,289
I guess so. Yeah.
170
00:07:15,358 --> 00:07:16,691
It doesn't seem fair.
171
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,693
I work hard.
172
00:07:21,498 --> 00:07:23,398
I'm really smart.
173
00:07:26,670 --> 00:07:29,337
I've made substantial
contributions to my field.
174
00:07:31,941 --> 00:07:33,941
But Zack gets to be rich,
175
00:07:34,010 --> 00:07:36,277
while I'm still working
for a paycheck?
176
00:07:36,346 --> 00:07:38,613
Well, a lot of people
you don't know are rich.
177
00:07:38,682 --> 00:07:41,082
That doesn't seem to bother you.
Mark Zuckerberg,
178
00:07:41,151 --> 00:07:43,117
Sultan of Brunei,
Gordon Letwin.
179
00:07:43,186 --> 00:07:44,229
Who's that?
180
00:07:44,253 --> 00:07:46,253
He's one of the first
11 employees of Microsoft.
181
00:07:46,256 --> 00:07:47,622
Yeah, well, I don't
182
00:07:47,691 --> 00:07:50,391
- have to hang out with Gordon Letwin.
- Well, that's too bad.
183
00:07:50,460 --> 00:07:52,994
He helped create
the HPFS file system.
184
00:07:53,063 --> 00:07:55,530
Oh, the stories he could tell.
185
00:07:55,598 --> 00:07:58,566
Penny told him we'd go have
dinner with him and his wife
186
00:07:58,635 --> 00:08:00,234
on their stupid boat.
187
00:08:00,303 --> 00:08:01,847
Well, just tell her
you don't want to go.
188
00:08:01,871 --> 00:08:05,206
Well, then, she'll think
I'm being jealous and petty.
189
00:08:05,275 --> 00:08:07,842
So you want to seem
mature and confident.
190
00:08:13,383 --> 00:08:16,784
I make one mistake, and she says
she doesn't want to marry me.
191
00:08:16,853 --> 00:08:19,153
- Like she never screwed up.
- Did she?
192
00:08:19,222 --> 00:08:22,256
Well, she agreed to marry me.
193
00:08:22,325 --> 00:08:24,058
Honestly,
194
00:08:24,127 --> 00:08:25,393
I think you dodged a bullet.
195
00:08:25,462 --> 00:08:27,161
I don't think
she was right for you.
196
00:08:27,230 --> 00:08:28,429
Howie, shh.
197
00:08:28,498 --> 00:08:29,530
What?
198
00:08:29,599 --> 00:08:30,765
You can't bad-mouth Anu.
199
00:08:30,834 --> 00:08:32,011
They're gonna
get back together,
200
00:08:32,035 --> 00:08:33,668
and you're gonna look
like a jerk.
201
00:08:33,737 --> 00:08:35,136
I mean, remember
202
00:08:35,205 --> 00:08:37,905
when we broke up, and Penny said
all those mean things about you?
203
00:08:41,144 --> 00:08:43,678
What did she say?
204
00:08:43,747 --> 00:08:45,012
I don't want to get into it.
205
00:08:45,081 --> 00:08:46,814
Some of it was hurtful,
most of it was true.
206
00:08:50,420 --> 00:08:51,791
So I'm just supposed
to lie to my friend?
207
00:08:51,815 --> 00:08:53,756
I don't want you to lie to me.
208
00:08:53,757 --> 00:08:55,189
No one's gonna lie to you.
209
00:08:55,258 --> 00:08:57,291
Lie.
210
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,260
She says
211
00:08:59,329 --> 00:09:00,506
the only reason I'm marrying her
212
00:09:00,530 --> 00:09:01,707
is because
all my friends are married,
213
00:09:01,731 --> 00:09:03,051
and I don't want
to feel left out.
214
00:09:03,099 --> 00:09:05,245
Oh, that's nonsense.
215
00:09:05,251 --> 00:09:06,934
No.
She's right.
216
00:09:08,037 --> 00:09:09,670
Now what do I say?
217
00:09:12,142 --> 00:09:14,742
So, Marissa, how
218
00:09:14,811 --> 00:09:16,077
did you guys meet?
219
00:09:16,146 --> 00:09:18,212
Oh, it's a pretty
funny story.
220
00:09:18,281 --> 00:09:20,448
We met in a bookstore.
221
00:09:23,553 --> 00:09:25,486
That is funny.
222
00:09:26,723 --> 00:09:28,723
Yeah, I was just there
using the bathroom,
223
00:09:28,792 --> 00:09:31,559
but this one had a stack
of books, like, this tall.
224
00:09:31,628 --> 00:09:33,361
Oh. So, you really like to read?
225
00:09:33,429 --> 00:09:35,363
Oh, no. I work there.
226
00:09:36,599 --> 00:09:38,399
Yeah, she is super smart.
227
00:09:38,468 --> 00:09:40,568
Seriously, you name,
like, any book,
228
00:09:40,637 --> 00:09:42,470
she'll tell you if
she's heard of it.
229
00:09:42,539 --> 00:09:44,305
Go on, try her.
230
00:09:44,374 --> 00:09:45,374
Oh, uh, well, uh...
231
00:09:45,408 --> 00:09:46,541
Catcher in the Rye.
232
00:09:46,609 --> 00:09:47,508
Nope.
233
00:09:47,577 --> 00:09:49,777
Look at that, Penny.
234
00:09:49,846 --> 00:09:52,180
I guess we both like nerds.
235
00:09:53,283 --> 00:09:56,284
So, uh, we gonna
take this thing out?
236
00:09:56,352 --> 00:09:59,120
Nah. It's a little
choppy tonight.
237
00:09:59,189 --> 00:10:01,622
Yeah, that's okay-- this is
nice, sitting under the stars.
238
00:10:01,691 --> 00:10:03,457
It's actually kind of peaceful.
239
00:10:03,526 --> 00:10:05,660
Well, it's a beautiful boat.
240
00:10:05,728 --> 00:10:07,028
Thanks, man.
241
00:10:07,096 --> 00:10:08,296
We love it.
242
00:10:08,364 --> 00:10:10,331
Although, he's so tall
he bangs his head
243
00:10:10,433 --> 00:10:12,033
almost every time
he goes downstairs.
244
00:10:12,101 --> 00:10:14,802
After the first couple,
you don't even feel it.
245
00:10:14,871 --> 00:10:16,604
Where are our manners?
246
00:10:16,673 --> 00:10:18,506
Zack, let's get our guests
something to drink.
247
00:10:18,575 --> 00:10:20,241
Oh, you got it, babe.
248
00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:22,243
I can't believe
that guy's rich.
249
00:10:22,312 --> 00:10:23,477
Ooh, watch your head.
250
00:10:23,546 --> 00:10:24,879
That was a close one.
251
00:10:26,583 --> 00:10:27,681
Are you jealous?
252
00:10:27,705 --> 00:10:29,251
I know, I know,
I shouldn't be.
253
00:10:29,252 --> 00:10:31,385
He's super sweet.
I should be happy for them.
254
00:10:31,454 --> 00:10:33,154
Oh, it's driving
me crazy, too.
255
00:10:33,223 --> 00:10:35,189
- Really?
- Yes. I was trying to pretend
256
00:10:35,258 --> 00:10:37,002
like it wasn't so you
wouldn't think I was petty.
257
00:10:37,026 --> 00:10:39,527
Wha-- turns out
we're both petty.
258
00:10:39,596 --> 00:10:41,796
I love you so much.
259
00:10:41,865 --> 00:10:43,531
Aw.
260
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,966
Cheers, guys.
261
00:10:45,034 --> 00:10:46,534
- Aw, thanks.
- Thank you.
262
00:10:48,238 --> 00:10:51,405
So listen, I got
to be honest.
263
00:10:51,474 --> 00:10:55,276
We sort of have another reason
for asking you here.
264
00:10:56,479 --> 00:10:57,912
We want to have a baby,
265
00:10:57,981 --> 00:11:00,260
but we can't do it
on our own.
266
00:11:00,261 --> 00:11:03,217
It could be because of the game me
and my frat brothers used to play
267
00:11:03,286 --> 00:11:05,887
where we kicked each other
in the balls over and over.
268
00:11:07,390 --> 00:11:09,223
But the doc says
there's no telling.
269
00:11:10,727 --> 00:11:13,194
We just don't know.
270
00:11:13,263 --> 00:11:15,329
Huh.
271
00:11:15,398 --> 00:11:18,099
You went to college.
272
00:11:18,167 --> 00:11:20,635
And Zack's
always admired you
273
00:11:20,703 --> 00:11:23,170
because you're
the smartest person he knows.
274
00:11:23,239 --> 00:11:24,572
Okay, whoa, whoa.
275
00:11:24,641 --> 00:11:27,608
Whoa, whoa. You know, this
has been such a nice evening.
276
00:11:27,677 --> 00:11:30,478
Let's all just stop before
anyone says any more things.
277
00:11:30,546 --> 00:11:31,932
Leonard, would you be
the father of our baby?
278
00:11:31,956 --> 00:11:33,922
Aw, you said a thing.
279
00:11:42,279 --> 00:11:44,580
Wow, this is
really flattering.
280
00:11:44,648 --> 00:11:47,883
And also really weird, right?
281
00:11:47,952 --> 00:11:49,318
Oh, just to be clear,
282
00:11:49,386 --> 00:11:52,354
you don't get to...
you know.
283
00:11:52,423 --> 00:11:54,723
No, I...
284
00:11:54,792 --> 00:11:56,491
- I got it.
- Just because I slept
285
00:11:56,560 --> 00:11:59,561
with your wife doesn't mean
you get to sleep with mine.
286
00:12:01,165 --> 00:12:02,898
We... we get it,
287
00:12:02,967 --> 00:12:06,501
but... thank you
for saying it out loud.
288
00:12:06,570 --> 00:12:07,936
You're welcome.
289
00:12:09,306 --> 00:12:12,407
I know it's a big ask,
but it would mean so much to us.
290
00:12:12,476 --> 00:12:13,476
Yeah, and we
291
00:12:13,544 --> 00:12:15,677
really don't want
a stranger's, you know...
292
00:12:15,746 --> 00:12:18,680
- I know.
- ...sperm.
293
00:12:18,749 --> 00:12:22,117
And Zack's always talked about
what a great guy Leonard is.
294
00:12:22,186 --> 00:12:23,986
I...
295
00:12:24,054 --> 00:12:26,588
I really
don't know what to say.
296
00:12:26,657 --> 00:12:28,757
Really? You don't know
what to say?
297
00:12:28,826 --> 00:12:31,627
You know, I-I think we
should talk about this.
298
00:12:31,695 --> 00:12:33,962
Oh, yeah. Definitely,
you guys should talk, yeah.
299
00:12:34,031 --> 00:12:35,964
Take your time.
300
00:12:39,370 --> 00:12:41,603
He means privately.
301
00:12:41,672 --> 00:12:42,749
- Right. Sorry.
- Sure. Yep.
302
00:12:42,773 --> 00:12:44,640
- Come on, Zack.
- Okay. Yeah.
303
00:12:44,708 --> 00:12:46,441
Okay.
304
00:12:46,510 --> 00:12:48,270
You really think
those two should be parents?
305
00:12:48,312 --> 00:12:49,978
There's nothing
wrong with them.
306
00:12:50,047 --> 00:12:52,047
Ow!
307
00:12:59,356 --> 00:13:01,290
Hello, Daddy.
308
00:13:01,358 --> 00:13:04,826
Did you install a camera
to spy on your fiancée?
309
00:13:04,895 --> 00:13:06,028
What?!
310
00:13:06,096 --> 00:13:08,196
No!
311
00:13:08,265 --> 00:13:09,631
That's what her parents told me
312
00:13:09,700 --> 00:13:11,700
when they said they
were calling off the wedding.
313
00:13:11,769 --> 00:13:14,770
But I told them you would never
do such a thing.
314
00:13:14,838 --> 00:13:15,838
Thank you.
315
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,240
I mean, I did install a camera
316
00:13:18,309 --> 00:13:22,177
and I did spy on her, but I did
not install it to spy on her.
317
00:13:22,246 --> 00:13:24,913
Well, that's not going
to be our story.
318
00:13:24,982 --> 00:13:27,316
Our story is that she's a liar.
319
00:13:27,384 --> 00:13:28,717
And-and old.
320
00:13:28,786 --> 00:13:31,520
An old, dirty liar.
321
00:13:31,588 --> 00:13:33,221
Oh, no.
She's-she's actually great.
322
00:13:33,290 --> 00:13:35,190
I'm the one who screwed up.
323
00:13:35,259 --> 00:13:36,959
Well, don't say that to them.
324
00:13:37,027 --> 00:13:38,660
She's bad. You're good.
325
00:13:38,729 --> 00:13:42,164
They have to pay me back
for my wedding deposits.
326
00:13:42,232 --> 00:13:43,765
This is all my fault.
327
00:13:43,834 --> 00:13:46,034
I should have...
I should have just trusted her.
328
00:13:46,103 --> 00:13:48,370
So you're saying
you still want to get married?
329
00:13:48,439 --> 00:13:50,372
Fine. Then I'll call her parents
330
00:13:50,441 --> 00:13:52,407
and we'll straighten
this whole thing out.
331
00:13:52,476 --> 00:13:54,276
I don't think
she wants to marry me.
332
00:13:54,345 --> 00:13:55,610
And honestly...
333
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,080
she deserves someone better.
334
00:13:58,148 --> 00:14:01,616
Rajesh, you need to stop
being so hard on yourself.
335
00:14:01,685 --> 00:14:03,719
You're a good man.
336
00:14:03,787 --> 00:14:05,253
Wow.
337
00:14:05,322 --> 00:14:07,489
Y-You've never told me that.
338
00:14:07,558 --> 00:14:09,891
You're also a dope.
339
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,627
That you've said.
340
00:14:12,696 --> 00:14:14,830
But your heart's
in the right place,
341
00:14:14,898 --> 00:14:16,298
and you deserve happiness.
342
00:14:16,367 --> 00:14:19,167
So you just need to figure out
what you want,
343
00:14:19,236 --> 00:14:22,437
and if that means cancelling the
wedding, we cancel the wedding.
344
00:14:22,506 --> 00:14:24,139
Thank you.
345
00:14:24,208 --> 00:14:26,208
But figure it out quickly,
or I'll be celebrating
346
00:14:26,276 --> 00:14:28,210
my next birthday
with a lot more elephants
347
00:14:28,278 --> 00:14:30,445
and marigolds than I expected.
348
00:14:33,283 --> 00:14:36,284
And Leonard just stood
there with a big, dumb smile on his face,
349
00:14:36,353 --> 00:14:39,287
like he was watching a puppy
and a monkey make friends.
350
00:14:40,657 --> 00:14:43,525
Well, I can see how he'd
be flattered to be asked.
351
00:14:43,594 --> 00:14:44,926
It's not flattering.
It's creepy.
352
00:14:44,995 --> 00:14:47,963
Well, something can be both
flattering and creepy.
353
00:14:48,032 --> 00:14:50,432
You know, just the other night,
Sheldon said that my feet
354
00:14:50,501 --> 00:14:52,601
looked like
Richard Feynman's hands.
355
00:14:52,669 --> 00:14:54,336
Really? So
you'd be okay
356
00:14:54,405 --> 00:14:57,305
if someone wanted to use Sheldon
as their sperm donor?
357
00:14:57,374 --> 00:15:00,375
Oh, absolutely not. I am
the only handmaid in this tale.
358
00:15:03,147 --> 00:15:05,380
So Leonard's
really considering this?
359
00:15:05,449 --> 00:15:06,948
Yes. We got in a
huge fight about it.
360
00:15:07,017 --> 00:15:08,897
He said, well, if I
don't want to have his baby,
361
00:15:08,952 --> 00:15:11,472
then why shouldn't someone else
be able to? Do you believe that?
362
00:15:14,425 --> 00:15:15,891
What?
363
00:15:15,959 --> 00:15:18,727
Well, there is
a deep-seated biological drive
364
00:15:18,796 --> 00:15:20,395
to pass on your genes.
365
00:15:20,464 --> 00:15:22,097
It's only natural.
366
00:15:22,166 --> 00:15:23,665
So you're on his side?
367
00:15:23,734 --> 00:15:25,834
Well, viewing
Leonard as a mammal,
368
00:15:25,903 --> 00:15:27,803
it's perfectly
understandable.
369
00:15:28,939 --> 00:15:30,939
But viewing him
as your husband, he stinks.
370
00:15:31,008 --> 00:15:33,041
And we hate him.
371
00:15:35,546 --> 00:15:38,914
Really? Zack wanted you to donate
372
00:15:38,982 --> 00:15:41,183
your genetic material
for his baby?
373
00:15:41,251 --> 00:15:44,519
Yeah. So I'd be helping out a
couple who really want a baby,
374
00:15:44,588 --> 00:15:47,622
and they were gonna pay us,
and Penny freaked out about it.
375
00:15:47,691 --> 00:15:49,458
- That doesn't make any sense.
- I know.
376
00:15:49,526 --> 00:15:51,560
They wanted you?
377
00:15:53,464 --> 00:15:55,297
Yes, Sheldon,
they wanted me.
378
00:15:55,365 --> 00:15:57,966
- I'm smart. I'm nice.
- I'm smart. I'm nice.
379
00:15:58,035 --> 00:16:01,670
And I can eat cheese
without clearing out a room.
380
00:16:01,738 --> 00:16:04,039
Are you upset he
didn't ask you?
381
00:16:04,108 --> 00:16:06,208
Of course not. I just
think it's interesting
382
00:16:06,276 --> 00:16:09,311
that of all the people he knows,
he thinks you're the best choice.
383
00:16:09,379 --> 00:16:11,313
Well, he does.
384
00:16:11,381 --> 00:16:13,949
I don't see why Penny
is so against this.
385
00:16:14,017 --> 00:16:16,196
Well, perhaps Penny's worried
that you haven't considered
386
00:16:16,220 --> 00:16:18,954
the emotional toll of knowing
there's a child out there
387
00:16:19,022 --> 00:16:21,256
who is biologically yours
but not actually yours.
388
00:16:23,794 --> 00:16:26,161
Wow, that's
really insightful.
389
00:16:26,230 --> 00:16:28,330
Yeah, I'm taller than you
and I don't have asthma.
390
00:16:28,398 --> 00:16:29,731
Those people are crazy.
391
00:16:37,141 --> 00:16:39,841
Come on, I know you're there,
and I know you know it's me.
392
00:16:45,015 --> 00:16:47,549
- You're just making this harder.
- Look...
393
00:16:47,618 --> 00:16:49,317
you were right.
394
00:16:49,386 --> 00:16:51,720
I was doing this for
the wrong reasons.
395
00:16:51,788 --> 00:16:54,556
You deserve to marry
someone who knows
396
00:16:54,625 --> 00:16:57,292
how amazing you are...
and who proposes
397
00:16:57,361 --> 00:17:00,962
because he doesn't want to spend
a single day without you.
398
00:17:01,031 --> 00:17:04,900
Not... not because he wants
to catch up to his friends.
399
00:17:04,968 --> 00:17:07,035
Thank you.
400
00:17:07,104 --> 00:17:11,540
And I want you to know, I
think I could be that man.
401
00:17:11,608 --> 00:17:14,242
Raj, I'm not gonna marry you.
402
00:17:14,311 --> 00:17:16,878
- I'm not asking you to.
- Then why are you here?
403
00:17:16,947 --> 00:17:18,079
Because I like you.
404
00:17:18,148 --> 00:17:19,614
Okay? I like you.
405
00:17:19,683 --> 00:17:21,883
I-I like you enough
to start this relationship
406
00:17:21,952 --> 00:17:24,853
at the beginning,
not in the middle.
407
00:17:24,922 --> 00:17:26,087
So...
408
00:17:26,156 --> 00:17:28,924
will you go out
on a date with me?
409
00:17:28,992 --> 00:17:31,293
I don't know.
410
00:17:36,533 --> 00:17:38,600
Okay.
411
00:17:38,669 --> 00:17:40,335
But I warn you,
412
00:17:40,404 --> 00:17:42,537
I just got out of
a weird relationship,
413
00:17:42,606 --> 00:17:45,207
and I might complain
about my ex a lot.
414
00:17:45,275 --> 00:17:49,144
Maybe he's being weird because he
doesn't know how to ask for his ring back.
415
00:17:59,621 --> 00:18:01,254
Hey.
416
00:18:01,322 --> 00:18:03,056
Hi.
417
00:18:03,124 --> 00:18:04,691
Where you been?
418
00:18:04,759 --> 00:18:06,626
Just out.
419
00:18:06,695 --> 00:18:08,227
All right, look, um...
420
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:10,463
I'm sorry that we fought before.
421
00:18:10,532 --> 00:18:12,932
I know this is
a really unusual situation,
422
00:18:13,001 --> 00:18:15,935
and if you don't want me
to do it, I won't.
423
00:18:16,004 --> 00:18:17,737
Really?
424
00:18:17,806 --> 00:18:19,172
Yeah.
425
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,708
We're a team.
We're in this together.
426
00:18:23,411 --> 00:18:25,344
I'll be right back.
427
00:18:39,928 --> 00:18:41,494
What is that?
428
00:18:41,563 --> 00:18:43,763
It's a sample cup.
429
00:18:43,832 --> 00:18:48,134
Really? 'Cause it looks like
the top off the NyQuil bottle.
430
00:18:49,370 --> 00:18:51,370
It's the closest thing
I could find.
431
00:18:51,473 --> 00:18:54,040
- It's a gesture. Shut up.
- All right, sorry.
432
00:18:55,577 --> 00:18:58,444
So... are you saying
you're okay with this?
433
00:18:58,513 --> 00:19:00,046
I don't know,
434
00:19:00,115 --> 00:19:02,548
but... when I told you
I didn't want to have kids,
435
00:19:02,617 --> 00:19:05,151
you didn't have a say
in that, so...
436
00:19:05,220 --> 00:19:07,954
maybe I don't need
to have a say in this.
437
00:19:09,023 --> 00:19:10,456
Thank you.
438
00:19:10,525 --> 00:19:13,292
They couldn't have picked
a better person.
439
00:19:17,132 --> 00:19:19,065
Are you calling Zack?
440
00:19:19,134 --> 00:19:21,801
No, Sheldon. Would you say
that last part one more time?
441
00:19:23,334 --> 00:19:24,334
Oh, my...
442
00:19:27,254 --> 00:19:34,254
