1
00:00:02,785 --> 00:00:04,091
Hey, whatcha doing?

2
00:00:04,134 --> 00:00:06,093
Improving
our wedding photos.

3
00:00:06,136 --> 00:00:07,529
Oh, that'’s nice.

4
00:00:07,572 --> 00:00:10,227
Wait, I'’m still in them, right?

5
00:00:10,271 --> 00:00:12,447
Of course.
And not only you.

6
00:00:12,490 --> 00:00:14,579
I'’ve added some guests
who couldn'’t be there.

7
00:00:15,972 --> 00:00:17,974
Who'’s that next
to my father?

8
00:00:18,018 --> 00:00:20,063
The Wright brothers.

9
00:00:20,107 --> 00:00:22,109
And why are they at our wedding?

10
00:00:22,152 --> 00:00:23,936
Orville, because I admire him;

11
00:00:23,980 --> 00:00:25,677
Wilbur, because he was
Orville'’s plus-one.

12
00:00:27,157 --> 00:00:29,072
[computer chimes]Oh.

13
00:00:29,116 --> 00:00:30,987
You got an e-mail
from someone named Tam.

14
00:00:31,031 --> 00:00:32,858
Tam? What does hewant?

15
00:00:32,902 --> 00:00:34,817
Uh...

16
00:00:34,860 --> 00:00:37,820
looks like he'’s coming to give
his son a tour of Caltech.

17
00:00:37,863 --> 00:00:39,517
He'’s hoping you guys
can meet up.

18
00:00:39,561 --> 00:00:41,345
[scoffs]
He would like that, wouldn'’t he?

19
00:00:41,389 --> 00:00:43,913
Well, that is the gist
of the e-mail.

20
00:00:45,088 --> 00:00:46,089
Who'’s Tam?

21
00:00:46,133 --> 00:00:47,482
He was my best friend

22
00:00:47,525 --> 00:00:49,440
in the whole world growing up.

23
00:00:49,484 --> 00:00:52,095
Really? Why have I never
heard you mention him before?

24
00:00:52,139 --> 00:00:54,489
Oh, of course I have.
I'’m sure I've mentioned him,

25
00:00:54,532 --> 00:00:55,881
like, five times this week.

26
00:00:55,925 --> 00:00:57,579
I don'’t think you have.

27
00:00:57,622 --> 00:01:00,060
Tam! Tam! Tam! Tam! Tam!

Yeah.

39
00:01:39,229 --> 00:01:41,884
Tell us the truth.
Did she get you pregnant?

40
00:01:41,927 --> 00:01:43,668
Very funny.

41
00:01:43,712 --> 00:01:45,540
Guys, I need your help, okay?
I'’m trying

42
00:01:45,583 --> 00:01:46,758
to buy her
engagement ring.

43
00:01:46,802 --> 00:01:48,064
What do you
think of this?

44
00:01:48,108 --> 00:01:49,587
Do you think she'’ll
like this one?

45
00:01:49,631 --> 00:01:51,937
Well, it'’s hard to say,
not knowing much about her.

46
00:01:51,981 --> 00:01:53,417
Does she have fingers?

47
00:01:54,418 --> 00:01:55,767
Yes, she has ten fingers

48
00:01:55,811 --> 00:01:57,943
and ten toes.
Probably.

49
00:01:57,987 --> 00:02:00,642
I'’ll get back to you
after I see her in sandals.

50
00:02:00,685 --> 00:02:03,123
Hey, did you guys know
that Sheldon had

51
00:02:03,166 --> 00:02:05,647
a best friend growing up
named Tam?

52
00:02:05,690 --> 00:02:08,780
Was that the imaginary
talking koala?

53
00:02:08,824 --> 00:02:12,219
No. He'’s a real person
who apparently betrayed him.

54
00:02:12,262 --> 00:02:14,525
Yeah, so did the koala.

55
00:02:14,569 --> 00:02:16,701
I tried to ask him
about it,

56
00:02:16,745 --> 00:02:18,703
and he invoked section three,
article five

57
00:02:18,747 --> 00:02:21,445
of the marriage contract:
beeswax comma none of your.

58
00:02:22,925 --> 00:02:24,448
I can'’t pry.
I mean,

59
00:02:24,492 --> 00:02:26,015
I have to respect his wishes.

60
00:02:26,058 --> 00:02:28,713
Wow. I wonder
what that guy could'’ve done

61
00:02:28,757 --> 00:02:31,673
to make Sheldon
not talk to him for 20 years.

62
00:02:31,716 --> 00:02:33,457
I wonder if it'’d work
a second time.

63
00:02:36,330 --> 00:02:37,983
[video game sound effects][knocking]

64
00:02:38,027 --> 00:02:40,856
I'’m pumping!

65
00:02:40,899 --> 00:02:42,118
It'’s Penny.

66
00:02:42,162 --> 00:02:43,511
Oh. Come in.

67
00:02:43,554 --> 00:02:45,904
I thought you were pumping.

68
00:02:45,948 --> 00:02:48,298
I thought you were my boss.

69
00:02:48,342 --> 00:02:51,867
Okay, listen, I'’m really worried
about this whole Raj thing.I know,

70
00:02:51,910 --> 00:02:53,912
he'’s so desperate
to get married, which is weird,

71
00:02:53,956 --> 00:02:57,351
because I can'’t imagine
we make it look that great.I know, right? You know,

72
00:02:57,394 --> 00:02:58,613
if this woman'’s
gonna be around, I think

73
00:02:58,656 --> 00:02:59,918
we should check her out
a little.

74
00:02:59,962 --> 00:03:01,703
I looked online.
She doesn'’t have an Instagram,

75
00:03:01,746 --> 00:03:04,227
which means she'’s either 80
or something'’s wrong with her.

76
00:03:04,271 --> 00:03:06,534
Well, I could ask my dad.

77
00:03:06,577 --> 00:03:08,623
Maybe he can get some
of his old cop buddies

78
00:03:08,666 --> 00:03:10,494
to do a background
check on her.

79
00:03:10,538 --> 00:03:12,148
Would he do that?Of course.

80
00:03:12,192 --> 00:03:14,542
He'’s a retired cop
who plays by his own rules.

81
00:03:16,587 --> 00:03:17,458
Hi, Daddy.

82
00:03:17,501 --> 00:03:18,459
No, everything'’s good.

83
00:03:18,502 --> 00:03:19,895
I just have a favor to ask.

84
00:03:19,938 --> 00:03:21,244
Yeah, so, my friend Raj

85
00:03:21,288 --> 00:03:22,941
is marrying this woman
that he barely knows,

86
00:03:22,985 --> 00:03:24,900
and I wanted to see if you
could use your connections

87
00:03:24,943 --> 00:03:26,118
to dig up any dirt on her.

88
00:03:26,162 --> 00:03:27,685
Uh-huh.

89
00:03:27,729 --> 00:03:29,034
Sure.

90
00:03:29,078 --> 00:03:31,950
Okay. Love you.

91
00:03:31,994 --> 00:03:34,997
Is he in?Absolutely not. He won'’t do it.
It'’s totally illegal.

92
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,740
I thought you said
he played by his own rules.

93
00:03:38,783 --> 00:03:40,220
He does, but apparently,
they'’re very similar

94
00:03:40,263 --> 00:03:41,699
to the actual rules.

95
00:03:44,398 --> 00:03:46,443
I still can'’t believe
Sheldon had a best friend

96
00:03:46,487 --> 00:03:47,488
we'’ve never
heard about.

97
00:03:47,531 --> 00:03:50,926
Ooh, somebody'’s jealous.

98
00:03:50,969 --> 00:03:53,276
I'’m not jealous.Leonard,

99
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,931
this is a safe space--
it'’s okay to be vulnerable.

100
00:03:55,974 --> 00:03:57,585
All I'’m saying is

101
00:03:57,628 --> 00:04:00,152
you know the timing
of a fellow'’s bowel movements,

102
00:04:00,196 --> 00:04:02,677
you don'’t think there's
a lot left to discover.

103
00:04:04,418 --> 00:04:06,115
I wonder what Tam
could have done.

104
00:04:06,158 --> 00:04:08,204
Hmm. Well, if Sheldon doesn'’t
want to talk about it,

105
00:04:08,248 --> 00:04:09,858
it'’s got to be
pretty upsetting.

106
00:04:09,901 --> 00:04:12,556
I have his brother George'’s
number-- he might know.

107
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,036
Really?
You have George'’s number?

108
00:04:14,079 --> 00:04:16,168
So so jealous.

109
00:04:19,389 --> 00:04:20,477
Yeah, sure, I remember Tam,

110
00:04:20,521 --> 00:04:23,872
Sheldon'’s little Vietnam buddy.

111
00:04:23,915 --> 00:04:26,266
The two of them were
always running around together.

112
00:04:26,309 --> 00:04:27,354
So, what happened?

113
00:04:27,397 --> 00:04:28,616
What do you mean?

114
00:04:28,659 --> 00:04:30,531
Well, I mean, Sheldon
never talks about him.

115
00:04:30,574 --> 00:04:32,576
They haven'’t spoken in years.
He wasn'’t at the wedding.

116
00:04:32,620 --> 00:04:33,925
He wasn'’t?

117
00:04:33,969 --> 00:04:35,536
All right, well,
this is embarrassing,

118
00:04:35,579 --> 00:04:37,364
'’cause I had a long conversation

119
00:04:37,407 --> 00:04:40,192
with someone
who I thought was Tam.

120
00:04:40,236 --> 00:04:43,370
Wait, wait, so you don'’t know
what their fight was about?

121
00:04:43,413 --> 00:04:44,806
I wish I could help you, boys.

122
00:04:44,849 --> 00:04:46,982
But, you know,
Sheldon used to keep

123
00:04:47,025 --> 00:04:49,332
an enemies list
when he was a kid.

124
00:04:49,376 --> 00:04:50,333
Oh, he still does.

125
00:04:50,377 --> 00:04:51,334
Really? I figured

126
00:04:51,378 --> 00:04:52,335
that went the same way

127
00:04:52,379 --> 00:04:54,119
as his bathroom schedule.

128
00:04:54,163 --> 00:04:57,340
If you mean digitized, annotated
and put online, it did.

129
00:04:57,384 --> 00:04:59,647
Maybe that'’ll tell you
something.

130
00:04:59,690 --> 00:05:02,737
Hey, while you'’re looking at it,
if I'’m still on there

131
00:05:02,780 --> 00:05:04,347
for peeing
in his shampoo bottle...

132
00:05:04,391 --> 00:05:06,306
Eh, you know what,
just leave it.

133
00:05:06,349 --> 00:05:08,786
[laughs] See ya, boys.Bye.

134
00:05:08,830 --> 00:05:10,527
Bye.All right,
got his enemies list.

135
00:05:10,571 --> 00:05:12,312
Ooh, he updated
the interface.

136
00:05:12,355 --> 00:05:13,878
You can search
by first name,

137
00:05:13,922 --> 00:05:16,751
last name or length of grudge.

138
00:05:16,794 --> 00:05:18,274
Is Tam on it?

139
00:05:18,318 --> 00:05:19,928
Let'’s see.

140
00:05:19,971 --> 00:05:21,756
Yep. Right here.
Tam Nguyen.

141
00:05:21,799 --> 00:05:23,714
Oh, great. What did he do?Hold on.

142
00:05:23,758 --> 00:05:25,716
I have to agree
to the terms of service.

143
00:05:27,457 --> 00:05:29,198
No, I'’m not a robot.

144
00:05:30,242 --> 00:05:31,592
Okay.

"Which of these are plants?"

146
00:05:33,724 --> 00:05:35,204
And we'’re in.

147
00:05:35,247 --> 00:05:36,945
Great. What-what
does it say?

148
00:05:36,988 --> 00:05:38,381
Well...

149
00:05:38,425 --> 00:05:40,078
"He knows what he did."

150
00:05:40,122 --> 00:05:41,776
[chuckles]:
Oh, come on.

151
00:05:41,819 --> 00:05:44,387
Wait. Wait, wait,
wait, if Tam knows

152
00:05:44,431 --> 00:05:46,389
what he did, we
can just ask him.

153
00:05:46,433 --> 00:05:48,609
He'’s gonna be on campus tomorrow
showing his son around.

154
00:05:48,652 --> 00:05:50,001
Won'’t that make Sheldon mad?

155
00:05:50,045 --> 00:05:51,525
Everything makes
Sheldon mad.

156
00:05:51,568 --> 00:05:53,527
Yeah.
Look at his list.

157
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:55,442

giant yellow bird on television

159

and in my nightmares."

160
00:06:05,190 --> 00:06:07,976
Oh, this is so nice.Mm-hmm.

161
00:06:08,019 --> 00:06:10,544
Maybe instead of introducing
ourselves to Anu,

162
00:06:10,587 --> 00:06:12,459
we could just get a room,

163
00:06:12,502 --> 00:06:14,635
order some food and take a nap.

164
00:06:14,678 --> 00:06:16,724
Yeah, I'’ve fallen
for that line before.

165
00:06:16,767 --> 00:06:18,508
It never leads
to napping.

166
00:06:18,552 --> 00:06:20,902
That must be her.

167
00:06:20,945 --> 00:06:23,426
Oh. She'’s cute.

168
00:06:23,470 --> 00:06:25,602
Okay, I got you two seats
to Hamiltontonight.

169
00:06:25,646 --> 00:06:27,604
Your tickets will be
at the concierge desk.

170
00:06:27,648 --> 00:06:29,214
Of course.
My pleasure.

171
00:06:29,258 --> 00:06:31,086
May I help you?

172
00:06:31,129 --> 00:06:32,479
Yes, I'’m here to pick up
our Hamiltontickets.

173
00:06:32,522 --> 00:06:34,655
Stop.

This is Bernadette.

176
00:06:38,485 --> 00:06:40,574
We just came by to
introduce ourselves.

177
00:06:40,617 --> 00:06:42,097
So you came to check me out?

178
00:06:42,140 --> 00:06:45,143
She'’s smart.
I like her.

179
00:06:45,187 --> 00:06:46,449
We just want to see
if we could take you

180
00:06:46,493 --> 00:06:47,798
to dinner
and get to know you a bit.

181
00:06:47,842 --> 00:06:50,018
That sounds nice.
How about tonight after work?

182
00:06:50,061 --> 00:06:51,889
Maybe we can go to Bavel.

183
00:06:51,933 --> 00:06:54,239
Oh, I wish. That place is
impossible to get into.

184
00:06:54,283 --> 00:06:56,241
Oh, please.
Getting into impossible places

185
00:06:56,285 --> 00:06:57,982
is my superpower.

186
00:06:58,026 --> 00:06:59,288
BERNADETTE:
Me, too.

187
00:06:59,331 --> 00:07:02,857
I can fit my whole body
in our dryer.

188
00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:04,902
All set. 8:30.

189
00:07:04,946 --> 00:07:06,730
Wow. Okay, well,
we'’ll see you tonight.

190
00:07:06,774 --> 00:07:07,818
See you then.Okay.

191
00:07:07,862 --> 00:07:09,167
Bye.

192
00:07:09,211 --> 00:07:11,343
She can get
into any restaurant,

193
00:07:11,387 --> 00:07:14,695
but the best husband
she can find is Raj?

194
00:07:18,089 --> 00:07:19,656
Not Tam.

195
00:07:20,788 --> 00:07:22,006
Not Tam.

196
00:07:23,138 --> 00:07:25,053
Not Tam.

197
00:07:25,096 --> 00:07:27,272
Got him.

198
00:07:27,316 --> 00:07:29,666
Tam Nguyen?Yeah. Yes.

199
00:07:29,710 --> 00:07:32,016
Is my son done
with his tour?

200
00:07:32,060 --> 00:07:35,803
No idea. We'’re actually
friends of Sheldon Cooper.

201
00:07:35,846 --> 00:07:37,587
Oh, I'’ve been trying
to get in touch with him,

202
00:07:37,631 --> 00:07:39,067
but I never heard back.
Is he okay?

203
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:41,112
Well, if you mean
physically, yes.

204
00:07:41,156 --> 00:07:43,898
If you mean
every other way, no.

205
00:07:43,941 --> 00:07:45,552
So, is he here?LEONARD:
Uh, no.

206
00:07:45,595 --> 00:07:46,683
He-he didn'’t come.

207
00:07:46,727 --> 00:07:48,119
He'’s, uh...

208
00:07:48,163 --> 00:07:50,818
he'’s still pretty
upset about...

209
00:07:50,861 --> 00:07:52,472
you know.

210
00:07:52,515 --> 00:07:54,082
I know what?

211
00:07:54,125 --> 00:07:55,562
Come on,

212
00:07:55,605 --> 00:07:57,259
you-you must know.

213
00:07:57,302 --> 00:07:59,783
No, we haven'’t talked in,
like, 20 years.

214
00:07:59,827 --> 00:08:02,177
Right. Because...

215
00:08:02,220 --> 00:08:03,918
you know.

216
00:08:04,962 --> 00:08:07,574
I don'’t think
he knows.

217
00:08:07,617 --> 00:08:09,271
What are you guys talking about?

218
00:08:09,314 --> 00:08:11,621
Why did you and Sheldon
stop being friends?

219
00:08:11,665 --> 00:08:13,362
What did you do?And don'’t worry,

220
00:08:13,405 --> 00:08:14,798
even though we
just met you,

221
00:08:14,842 --> 00:08:17,497
we think you'’re right
and he'’s wrong.

222
00:08:17,540 --> 00:08:19,150
I didn'’t do anything.

223
00:08:19,194 --> 00:08:21,936
He moved to California,
and we just drifted apart.

224
00:08:21,979 --> 00:08:24,199
Oh, come on, there'’s
got to be something...

225
00:08:24,242 --> 00:08:26,201
What is going on here?Oh, hey, Sheldon.

226
00:08:26,244 --> 00:08:28,638
We just met...Sheldon! So good to see you!

227
00:08:28,682 --> 00:08:30,379
Tam.

228
00:08:31,728 --> 00:08:33,556
It'’s been a long time.

229
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,037
Mm, not long enough
to erase the sting of betrayal.

230
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,560
How did I betray you?

231
00:08:37,604 --> 00:08:39,431
You know what you did.

232
00:08:39,475 --> 00:08:41,390
Uh, let me
catch you up.

233
00:08:41,433 --> 00:08:42,783
He does not.

234
00:08:44,219 --> 00:08:46,569
When I moved to California,
what did you do?

235
00:08:46,613 --> 00:08:48,049
I stayed in Texas.

236
00:08:48,092 --> 00:08:49,616
Do you believe this guy?!

237
00:08:53,620 --> 00:08:56,405
So, he was your best friend
growing up?

238
00:08:56,448 --> 00:08:57,624
Yes.

239
00:08:57,667 --> 00:08:59,539
Were there no other kids
in Texas?

240
00:09:07,634 --> 00:09:10,332
Hey. What is
going on with you?

241
00:09:10,375 --> 00:09:12,421
I don'’t want to talk about it.Well,

242
00:09:12,464 --> 00:09:14,379
I'’m sure you have
a perfectly stupid reason.

243
00:09:15,772 --> 00:09:17,905
I don'’t do anything
for a stupid reason.

244
00:09:17,948 --> 00:09:20,168
Except, perhaps,
Talk Like a Pirate Day,

245
00:09:20,211 --> 00:09:22,866
and I'’d argue that's
more whimsical than stupid.

246
00:09:22,910 --> 00:09:25,782
You know, I was curious to find
out what Tam had done wrong.

247
00:09:25,826 --> 00:09:28,132
Why am I not surprised
the answer is nothing?

248
00:09:28,176 --> 00:09:30,004
So you'’re taking his side.

249
00:09:30,047 --> 00:09:31,658
You scurvy dog.

250
00:09:33,703 --> 00:09:35,618
You watch yourself.
There is room on my enemies list

251
00:09:35,662 --> 00:09:37,141
now that the cafeteria ladies
finally told me

252
00:09:37,185 --> 00:09:38,360
what'’s in the chili.

253
00:09:39,491 --> 00:09:41,450
By the way, don'’t eat the chili.

254
00:09:41,493 --> 00:09:42,799
Wai-Wai-Wait, you know what?

255
00:09:42,843 --> 00:09:45,149
Do.

256
00:09:45,193 --> 00:09:47,108
Be careful, Sheldon.

257
00:09:47,151 --> 00:09:49,240
I don'’t think you can afford
to lose a second best friend.

258
00:09:49,284 --> 00:09:51,460
I don'’t see anyone lining up
to be your third.

259
00:09:51,503 --> 00:09:53,810
D... Wait.

260
00:09:53,854 --> 00:09:56,596
"Snarky comebacks..."

261
00:09:56,639 --> 00:09:58,598
Oh, here we go.

262
00:09:58,641 --> 00:10:00,643
"You have your entire life
to be a jerk,

263
00:10:00,687 --> 00:10:03,124
why not take today off?"

264
00:10:07,432 --> 00:10:10,566
That was harsh,
but he was asking for it.

265
00:10:12,350 --> 00:10:13,787
This place is amazing.

266
00:10:13,830 --> 00:10:15,223
I can'’t believe
you got us in here.

267
00:10:15,266 --> 00:10:16,833
Well, it'’s kind of my job.

268
00:10:16,877 --> 00:10:19,531
Usually I get tipped for it,
but I'’ll leave that up to you.

269
00:10:19,575 --> 00:10:21,751
[giggles]

270
00:10:21,795 --> 00:10:23,013
Look, I think that'’s
LeBron over there.

271
00:10:23,057 --> 00:10:24,275
James?

272
00:10:24,319 --> 00:10:25,494
No, LeBron Kershenbaum.

273
00:10:27,539 --> 00:10:28,976
So, what do you want to know?

274
00:10:29,019 --> 00:10:32,153
Well, you seem like a
smart, successful woman,

275
00:10:32,196 --> 00:10:34,372
why would you want to marry
someone you just met?

276
00:10:34,416 --> 00:10:36,244
Fair question.

277
00:10:36,287 --> 00:10:38,681
In my 20s, I tried this
the normal way.

278
00:10:38,725 --> 00:10:40,335
You know, met a guy,
fell in love,

279
00:10:40,378 --> 00:10:42,119
we moved in together.

280
00:10:42,163 --> 00:10:44,687
I put him through culinary
school, screenwriting classes,

281
00:10:44,731 --> 00:10:47,908
and finally dumped him when he
wanted to become a midwife.

282
00:10:47,951 --> 00:10:49,866
Then I realized,

283
00:10:49,910 --> 00:10:52,521
my parents are happy;
they had an arranged marriage.

284
00:10:52,564 --> 00:10:54,523
Why am I fighting this?

285
00:10:54,566 --> 00:10:56,525
I dunno, I married for love

286
00:10:56,568 --> 00:11:00,572
and it turned out... fine.

287
00:11:02,487 --> 00:11:05,447
Oh, yeah, me, too.

288
00:11:08,145 --> 00:11:09,538
AMY:
Hi.

289
00:11:09,581 --> 00:11:12,367
Howard, today
is your lucky day.

290
00:11:12,410 --> 00:11:13,934
Leonard'’s out, you're my new
best friend.

291
00:11:15,675 --> 00:11:16,719
Well, I'’m not
thrilled about it either,

292
00:11:16,763 --> 00:11:17,981
but here we are.

293
00:11:18,025 --> 00:11:19,679
Okay, fine.

294
00:11:19,722 --> 00:11:21,028
Is Bernadette there?

295
00:11:21,071 --> 00:11:22,029
Sh... No.

296
00:11:22,072 --> 00:11:23,639
Just Stuart?

297
00:11:23,683 --> 00:11:25,815
Let me call you back.

298
00:11:25,859 --> 00:11:27,121
Let me guess.

299
00:11:27,164 --> 00:11:28,731
This thing with Tam escalated,

300
00:11:28,775 --> 00:11:29,993
and now you'’re mad at Leonard

301
00:11:30,037 --> 00:11:31,516
and looking for
a new best friend?

302
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:33,518
You know me so well.

303
00:11:33,562 --> 00:11:35,607
It'’s too bad you can't be
my best friend.

304
00:11:35,651 --> 00:11:37,392
I can be.

305
00:11:37,435 --> 00:11:39,742
You can'’t be my wife
and my best friend.

306
00:11:39,786 --> 00:11:41,613
Who would I complain
about you to?

307
00:11:41,657 --> 00:11:44,138
Just tell me what happened.

308
00:11:44,181 --> 00:11:47,794
Leonard talked to Tam behind
my back and took his side.

309
00:11:47,837 --> 00:11:50,057
And after what he did to me.
Can you believe it?

310
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:53,277
No. I'’m-I'm shocked
and outraged.

311
00:11:53,321 --> 00:11:55,845
Now, tell me why
I'’m shocked and outraged.

312
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:58,761
Fine.

313
00:11:58,805 --> 00:12:01,546
When I got accepted
to grad school at Caltech,

314
00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:03,940
I was afraid to move
so far away from home.

315
00:12:03,984 --> 00:12:05,942
So Tam said
he'’d move out here with me

316
00:12:05,986 --> 00:12:07,683
and be my roommate.
Then,

317
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:09,772
over the summer,
he got a girlfriend,

318
00:12:09,816 --> 00:12:11,252
even after reading
all the pamphlets

319
00:12:11,295 --> 00:12:14,342
I gave him
about social diseases.

320
00:12:14,385 --> 00:12:17,519
Aw, I remember when you
gave me those pamphlets.

321
00:12:17,562 --> 00:12:19,869
Anyway, Tam stayed
with her in Texas,

322
00:12:19,913 --> 00:12:22,524
and I had to move out here
all by myself.

323
00:12:22,567 --> 00:12:25,092
That must'’ve been scary.

324
00:12:25,135 --> 00:12:27,050
It was.

325
00:12:27,094 --> 00:12:28,748
I was lonely, and I thought

326
00:12:28,791 --> 00:12:30,619
I'’d never make a friend again.

327
00:12:30,662 --> 00:12:33,187
And for a long time, I didn'’t.

328
00:12:33,230 --> 00:12:34,275
But then you did.

329
00:12:34,318 --> 00:12:36,364
And great friends.

330
00:12:36,407 --> 00:12:39,454
If you think about it, if Tam
had moved out here with you,

331
00:12:39,497 --> 00:12:41,761
who knows what your life
would'’ve been like.

332
00:12:48,158 --> 00:12:49,899
Yes.

333
00:12:49,943 --> 00:12:51,553
Uh, I'’m Leonard Hofstadter.
I called you

334
00:12:51,596 --> 00:12:52,902
about the apartment.
You said...

335
00:12:52,946 --> 00:12:54,599
Tell him to go away.
You already have a roommate.

336
00:12:57,864 --> 00:12:58,778
New neighbor?

337
00:12:59,822 --> 00:13:00,823
Oh, hi.

338
00:13:00,867 --> 00:13:01,955
Hi.Hi.

339
00:13:01,998 --> 00:13:04,305
Hi.Hi.

340
00:13:14,619 --> 00:13:15,577
PENNY:
Tam, look.

341
00:13:15,620 --> 00:13:18,406
Sheldon'’s hugging me.

342
00:13:18,449 --> 00:13:20,712
It'’s a Saturnalia miracle.

343
00:13:22,584 --> 00:13:24,020
Sheldon, come here.

344
00:13:24,064 --> 00:13:25,848
Bazinga.

345
00:13:27,763 --> 00:13:30,331
No, my life
would'’ve still been great.

346
00:13:33,725 --> 00:13:35,989
So what is the craziest
request anyone'’s ever made?

347
00:13:36,032 --> 00:13:38,643
Oh, you know,
I can'’t really say.

348
00:13:38,687 --> 00:13:40,689
Concierge-guest confidentiality.

349
00:13:40,732 --> 00:13:42,125
Really, that'’s a thing?

350
00:13:42,169 --> 00:13:44,084
[laughs]
No.

351
00:13:44,127 --> 00:13:47,652
This one time, I had to go
to Walmart at 3:00 a.m.

352
00:13:47,696 --> 00:13:50,438
because Britney Spears
needed to blow bubbles.

353
00:13:50,481 --> 00:13:53,528
Oh.That is so cool.

354
00:13:53,571 --> 00:13:55,704
By the way, do not tell Raj
that you met Britney Spears,

355
00:13:55,747 --> 00:13:57,010
because he will literally die.

356
00:13:59,099 --> 00:14:01,492
We'’ve been talking so much
about me,

357
00:14:01,536 --> 00:14:03,755
tell me about Raj.

358
00:14:03,799 --> 00:14:04,974
Okay, are you trying
to get us drunk

359
00:14:05,018 --> 00:14:06,758
so we'’ll dish on
our friend?

360
00:14:06,802 --> 00:14:08,760
'’Cause it's totally gonna work,
what do you want to know?

361
00:14:10,588 --> 00:14:11,633
What kind of guy is he?

362
00:14:11,676 --> 00:14:13,113
He is great.

363
00:14:13,156 --> 00:14:14,331
So great.Mm-hmm.

364
00:14:14,375 --> 00:14:15,680
How come he'’s still single?

365
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:20,250
He'’s great.So great. Yeah.

366
00:14:20,294 --> 00:14:21,556
Come on.

367
00:14:21,599 --> 00:14:22,862
There'’s really nothing
to tell.

368
00:14:22,905 --> 00:14:24,167
Raj is so much fun
to hang out with.

369
00:14:24,211 --> 00:14:25,734
He'’s like one
of our girlfriends.

370
00:14:25,777 --> 00:14:27,214
And I mean that in a good way.

371
00:14:27,257 --> 00:14:29,259
But also a bad way.

372
00:14:29,303 --> 00:14:30,652
Anything else?

373
00:14:31,827 --> 00:14:34,047
No.No.

374
00:14:34,090 --> 00:14:36,353
I mean, h-he
takes baths with his dog,

375
00:14:36,397 --> 00:14:38,834
but not in a weird way.

376
00:14:38,878 --> 00:14:41,141
Or a normal way;
they both wear swimsuits.

377
00:14:42,751 --> 00:14:46,015
He also cries every time
Hugh Jackman sings.

378
00:14:46,059 --> 00:14:49,062
But not cute sniffles--
full-on snot sobs.

379
00:14:50,454 --> 00:14:51,891
But he is great.

380
00:14:51,934 --> 00:14:53,370
So great.Yeah.

381
00:14:56,460 --> 00:14:57,635
[knocking]

382
00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:58,941
Hello, Sheldon.

383
00:14:58,985 --> 00:15:00,943
Hello Tam.
Thank you for coming.

384
00:15:00,987 --> 00:15:04,468
I just want you to know
that, um...

385
00:15:04,512 --> 00:15:06,688
I forgive you.

386
00:15:06,731 --> 00:15:07,515
I didn'’t do anything.

387
00:15:07,558 --> 00:15:08,733
And yet, here I am,

388
00:15:08,777 --> 00:15:11,301
still being the bigger man.

389
00:15:11,345 --> 00:15:13,564
Look, I was in love with Beth,

390
00:15:13,608 --> 00:15:15,044
and she made me happy.

391
00:15:15,088 --> 00:15:16,480
Y... Really?

392
00:15:16,524 --> 00:15:17,873
Did shelet you play
with her train set?

393
00:15:19,875 --> 00:15:21,877
In a manner of speaking.

394
00:15:24,662 --> 00:15:27,578
Sheldon, I needed
to stay in Texas.

395
00:15:27,622 --> 00:15:29,058
And you needed
to come here.

396
00:15:29,102 --> 00:15:31,278
I knew you were gonna
do amazing things,

397
00:15:31,321 --> 00:15:33,628
and meet amazing people
who were gonna respect you,

398
00:15:33,671 --> 00:15:35,717
because you'’re brilliant.
And because they never had to

399
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,589
fish you out of a dumpster.

400
00:15:38,633 --> 00:15:39,851
Well, they have,
but it was during

401
00:15:39,895 --> 00:15:42,332
my short-lived parkour phase.

402
00:15:42,376 --> 00:15:45,292
I didn'’t mean to upset you.

403
00:15:45,335 --> 00:15:46,858
And I want you to know
I'’m really proud

404
00:15:46,902 --> 00:15:48,425
of everything you'’ve done.

405
00:15:48,469 --> 00:15:50,427
Thank you.

406
00:15:50,471 --> 00:15:52,864
It did work out for me.

407
00:15:52,908 --> 00:15:56,520
And I'’m sorry that things
didn'’t work out for you.

408
00:15:56,564 --> 00:15:58,479
They did work out for me.

409
00:15:58,522 --> 00:16:01,438
Oh, Tam, you don'’t need
to be brave on my account.

410
00:16:01,482 --> 00:16:03,092
I'’m not.

411
00:16:03,136 --> 00:16:05,573
I have a great wife
and amazing children.

412
00:16:05,616 --> 00:16:06,922
I'’m very happy.

413
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:08,750
Brave, brave Tam.

414
00:16:12,536 --> 00:16:14,408
Sounds like Penny and
Bernadette had fun last night.

415
00:16:14,451 --> 00:16:15,887
I know.

416
00:16:15,931 --> 00:16:17,237
Bernie came home pretty drunk.

417
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,413
She tried to sleep in the dryer.

418
00:16:21,893 --> 00:16:25,419
Hello, you all remember Tam,
my best friend from high school.

419
00:16:25,462 --> 00:16:26,942
Yeah.
Of course.How'’s it going?

420
00:16:26,986 --> 00:16:29,336
Sheldon'’s been showing
me and my son around.

421
00:16:29,379 --> 00:16:31,512
Now we know where all
the clean bathrooms are.Yep.

422
00:16:32,904 --> 00:16:34,167
You just remember the mnemonic:

423
00:16:34,210 --> 00:16:35,733
if it'’s number one,
the library'’s fun,

424
00:16:35,777 --> 00:16:37,561
if it'’s number two,
the basement'’s for you.

425
00:16:39,389 --> 00:16:40,564
I'’m glad you guys made up.

426
00:16:40,608 --> 00:16:43,045
Well, I realized my life
turned out great,

427
00:16:43,089 --> 00:16:44,873
and it'’s silly
to hold a grudge.

428
00:16:44,916 --> 00:16:46,744
And I had no idea we were
fighting, so it was easy.

429
00:16:48,007 --> 00:16:49,443
Uh, don'’t worry, Leonard,

430
00:16:49,486 --> 00:16:51,575
you'’re still
my California best friend.

431
00:16:53,577 --> 00:16:55,231
Cool.

432
00:16:55,275 --> 00:16:57,755
So, what do you want to do now?

433
00:16:57,799 --> 00:17:00,497
Go to the train store,
go to the comic book store?

434
00:17:00,541 --> 00:17:02,630
Actually, I have to grab my
son and head to the airport.

435
00:17:02,673 --> 00:17:04,458
I was just about
to call a cab.

436
00:17:04,501 --> 00:17:06,329
Don'’t be silly,
you don'’t have to call a cab.

437
00:17:06,373 --> 00:17:07,765
You'’re my oldest friend.

438
00:17:07,809 --> 00:17:10,507
Leonard will take you.
Right, Leonard?

439
00:17:10,551 --> 00:17:13,119
Sure.

440
00:17:13,162 --> 00:17:14,381
Shall we?

441
00:17:14,424 --> 00:17:15,425
Eh, eh, eh, hold on.

442
00:17:15,469 --> 00:17:16,905
I haven'’t seen
Tam in 20 years,

443
00:17:16,948 --> 00:17:18,211
give me a chance
to say good-bye.

444
00:17:18,254 --> 00:17:20,039
Bye.

445
00:17:28,395 --> 00:17:30,223
Check it out--
LeBron James posted a picture

446
00:17:30,266 --> 00:17:31,572
of me and him
on Instagram.

447
00:17:31,615 --> 00:17:32,964
I don'’t see you.

448
00:17:33,008 --> 00:17:34,053
Look right behind him.

449
00:17:34,096 --> 00:17:35,619
No.

450
00:17:35,663 --> 00:17:38,057
Okay. You see that table
just past his left shoulder?

451
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:41,190
Now go back two more tables
and over to the right.

452
00:17:41,234 --> 00:17:43,584
All I see is
a yellow smudge.

453
00:17:43,627 --> 00:17:45,629
That'’s me!

454
00:17:45,673 --> 00:17:47,588
[phone rings]

455
00:17:47,631 --> 00:17:49,024
Oh, it'’s Raj.

456
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:51,157
Hey Raj,
I'’m here with Penny.

457
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,898
KOOTHRAPPALI:
What the hell did you two
say to Anu?

458
00:17:53,942 --> 00:17:55,335
Uh...

459
00:17:55,378 --> 00:17:57,815
whatever do you mean?

460
00:17:57,859 --> 00:18:00,253
Why, why would you tell her

461
00:18:00,296 --> 00:18:02,429
I wear ladies'’ deodorant?

462
00:18:02,472 --> 00:18:06,128
Uh, because you'’re a boy
and it'’s really funny.

463
00:18:06,172 --> 00:18:08,783
Oh, oh, okay. Pardon me

464
00:18:08,826 --> 00:18:11,133
for having the confidence
to smell daisy-fresh.

465
00:18:12,439 --> 00:18:14,658
Just do me a favor
and stay away from her.

466
00:18:16,530 --> 00:18:19,141
Ugh, God, now I feel bad.

467
00:18:19,185 --> 00:18:20,490
I know.

468
00:18:20,534 --> 00:18:22,057
Maybe we should
take her out again

469
00:18:22,101 --> 00:18:23,363
and do some damage control.

470
00:18:23,406 --> 00:18:25,408
You know, that'’s a good idea.

471
00:18:25,452 --> 00:18:27,193
Think she can
get us into SoHo House?

472
00:18:29,064 --> 00:18:31,066
I don'’t know, but we
owe it to Raj to try.Mm-hmm.
