1
00:00:01,305 --> 00:00:03,090
Previously on
The Big Bang Theory...

2
00:00:03,133 --> 00:00:05,048
So I told my mom
she just needed to back off.

3
00:00:05,092 --> 00:00:06,658
This is our wedding,
and if anyone's gonna

4
00:00:06,702 --> 00:00:11,011
design the floral arrangements,
it's going to be my man.

5
00:00:11,054 --> 00:00:13,056
Thank you.

6
00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:15,406
I mean, I-I'm not trying
to be a Groomzilla,

7
00:00:15,450 --> 00:00:18,061
but... this is my specialty.

8
00:00:19,671 --> 00:00:21,151
[phone chimes]

9
00:00:21,195 --> 00:00:22,283
Everything okay?

10
00:00:22,326 --> 00:00:24,067
Yeah, it's just
Anu's doorbell camera.

11
00:00:24,111 --> 00:00:25,503
I helped her install it.

12
00:00:25,547 --> 00:00:27,244
You can't look at it.
That's spying.

13
00:00:27,288 --> 00:00:28,724
Who the hell is this guy?

14
00:00:28,767 --> 00:00:29,942
Ooh, let me see.

15
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,642
So you're still talking
to your ex-boyfriend?

16
00:00:33,685 --> 00:00:35,513
Yes, and I'm not gonna
apologize for that.

17
00:00:35,557 --> 00:00:37,950
And you need to delete
that app from your phone.

18
00:00:37,994 --> 00:00:39,474
Because you're hiding
something from me?

19
00:00:39,517 --> 00:00:41,128
No, because you
should trust me!

20
00:00:41,171 --> 00:00:44,044
How can I trust you?!
I barely even know you!

21
00:00:44,087 --> 00:00:45,958
Then what are we doing?

22
00:00:46,002 --> 00:00:47,525
I don't know.

23
00:00:49,875 --> 00:00:51,181
Oh!DENISE: Aah,

24
00:00:51,225 --> 00:00:53,227
sad man!

25
00:00:55,142 --> 00:00:56,795
This is so great.

26
00:00:56,839 --> 00:00:58,101
Why don't we do it
more often?

27
00:00:58,145 --> 00:01:00,103
Because you have two kids,

28
00:01:00,147 --> 00:01:01,365
I have Sheldon,

29
00:01:01,409 --> 00:01:03,193
and Penny's apparently
in the gym all the time,

30
00:01:03,237 --> 00:01:05,108
'cause damn, look at her!

31
00:01:06,327 --> 00:01:08,024
Yeah, so impressive
how you manage

32
00:01:08,068 --> 00:01:10,374
to bounce back
after having no babies.

33
00:01:11,767 --> 00:01:14,204
Ah, another reason why
we don't do this more often.

34
00:01:15,423 --> 00:01:17,729
You've come
to a giant metal door.

35
00:01:17,773 --> 00:01:21,124
I check the door
for traps.

36
00:01:21,168 --> 00:01:23,126
There are no traps.

37
00:01:23,170 --> 00:01:24,345
I use my wizard eye

38
00:01:24,388 --> 00:01:26,869
to see what's on the
other side of the door.

39
00:01:26,912 --> 00:01:29,393
Hey, that's sort of like how
you used a doorbell camera

40
00:01:29,437 --> 00:01:32,092
to spy on your fiancée.

41
00:01:33,223 --> 00:01:35,269
No, it's nothing like that.

42
00:01:35,312 --> 00:01:37,227
Your wizard eye
reveals a monster.

43
00:01:37,271 --> 00:01:39,664
Oh. Is it alone and unloved?I guess.

44
00:01:39,708 --> 00:01:42,754
I open the door and say,
"Hey, Raj."

45
00:01:44,147 --> 00:01:46,106
I have a bottle
of champagne for you.

46
00:01:46,149 --> 00:01:47,542
Oh, we didn't order this.

47
00:01:47,585 --> 00:01:50,153
It's from the gentleman
at the end of the bar.

48
00:01:50,197 --> 00:01:52,634
Oh. Well, if we drink it,
does that mean

49
00:01:52,677 --> 00:01:54,114
we're making a promise?

50
00:01:54,157 --> 00:01:57,334
'Cause I am happily married,
although I will watch.

51
00:01:58,466 --> 00:02:00,685
We're not gonna do anything.

52
00:02:00,729 --> 00:02:03,427
Really?
So all that work's for Leonard?

53
00:02:05,429 --> 00:02:07,257
Why don't you just
call her? I'm sure

54
00:02:07,301 --> 00:02:08,650
you guys can work this out.

55
00:02:08,693 --> 00:02:10,304
I don't want to talk about it.
Let's just play.

56
00:02:10,347 --> 00:02:11,653
Okay, the cyclops tells you

57
00:02:11,696 --> 00:02:13,350
that the enchantress
you seek is staying

58
00:02:13,394 --> 00:02:15,178
at the Inn of the Dwarven Lords.

59
00:02:15,222 --> 00:02:17,224
Really? An inn?

60
00:02:17,267 --> 00:02:19,269
Anu is a concierge at a hotel.

61
00:02:19,313 --> 00:02:20,140
That's a little insensitive,

62
00:02:20,183 --> 00:02:21,663
don't you think?

63
00:02:21,706 --> 00:02:24,318
I hadn't noticed that
before you mentioned it.

64
00:02:24,361 --> 00:02:26,450
Well, now that I've
mentioned it, how do you feel?Bad.

65
00:02:26,494 --> 00:02:28,148
Shame on you.

66
00:02:28,191 --> 00:02:30,324
Hey, ladies.Zack!

67
00:02:30,367 --> 00:02:31,803
Hi. You guys
know Zack.

68
00:02:31,847 --> 00:02:33,109
BERNADETTE:
Yeah.Of course.

69
00:02:33,153 --> 00:02:34,589
Did-did you
send this over?

70
00:02:34,632 --> 00:02:37,287
I did. I asked for the
most expensive one they have.

71
00:02:37,331 --> 00:02:38,680
They said it was $200,

72
00:02:38,723 --> 00:02:41,073
and I said
I want a moreexpensive one.

73
00:02:41,117 --> 00:02:44,338
And then, they said it was $300.

74
00:02:46,775 --> 00:02:48,298
But it-it was the same...

75
00:02:48,342 --> 00:02:50,474
Don't.

76
00:02:50,518 --> 00:02:53,695
Thank you, but you shouldn't
have spent so much.Nah.

77
00:02:53,738 --> 00:02:56,959
It's cool. I sold my company
for a boatload of money.

78
00:02:57,002 --> 00:02:58,352
And then I bought a boat.

79
00:02:59,396 --> 00:03:01,050
Then I got married.

80
00:03:01,093 --> 00:03:02,443
Guess where.

81
00:03:02,486 --> 00:03:04,140
On your boat?

82
00:03:04,184 --> 00:03:07,317
No, but that would've
been awesome!

83
00:03:08,362 --> 00:03:10,799
Well, congratulations.

84
00:03:10,842 --> 00:03:12,366
Hey, you and Leonard

85
00:03:12,409 --> 00:03:15,151
should come over and have
dinner with us on our boat.

86
00:03:15,195 --> 00:03:17,719
Yeah, that would be so nice.

87
00:03:17,762 --> 00:03:20,548
Leonard was just saying
how he was hoping to have dinner

88
00:03:20,591 --> 00:03:23,333
with one of your ex-boyfriends
on his expensive boat.

89
00:03:25,292 --> 00:03:27,032
Well, then this worked out
perfect!

90
00:03:27,076 --> 00:03:28,469

Hey. How was game night?

100
00:03:56,758 --> 00:03:58,586
Oh, off the charts.

101
00:03:58,629 --> 00:04:00,501
Literally.
Sheldon rolled a number so high,

102
00:04:00,544 --> 00:04:02,503
it wasn't on any
of these charts.

103
00:04:02,546 --> 00:04:04,069
[laughs] That's funny.

104
00:04:04,113 --> 00:04:05,984
Wow. I should not have
driven home.

105
00:04:08,117 --> 00:04:09,510
How was ladies' night?

106
00:04:09,553 --> 00:04:11,947
It was fun. Amy got drunk
and kept telling us

107
00:04:11,990 --> 00:04:15,820
that Sheldon's chest is smooth
like a porpoise.

108
00:04:15,864 --> 00:04:19,041
Well, it does squeak
when you touch it.

109
00:04:19,084 --> 00:04:20,869
And we ran into Zack.

110
00:04:20,912 --> 00:04:22,958
Oh. Yeah? How's he doing?

111
00:04:23,001 --> 00:04:25,439
He got married.Oh. Well, that's nice.

112
00:04:25,482 --> 00:04:28,746
Yeah, and he sold his company
for a fortune and retired.

113
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:30,792
Huh.

114
00:04:32,359 --> 00:04:35,536
And you ended up with me,
so everybody wins.

115
00:04:35,579 --> 00:04:38,495
Wait. You're not
jealous of Zack, are you?

116
00:04:38,539 --> 00:04:40,454
What? Oh, absolutely not.

117
00:04:40,497 --> 00:04:42,891
In fact, he should be jealous
of me because I have you.Oh.

118
00:04:42,934 --> 00:04:45,981
And a dungeon with over 30 rooms
left unexplored

119
00:04:46,024 --> 00:04:47,939
because no one thought
to search for secret doors

120
00:04:47,983 --> 00:04:50,072
under the wizard's throne.

121
00:04:50,115 --> 00:04:53,031
Oh. You know, I'd
like to go exploring.

122
00:04:53,075 --> 00:04:55,469
Really?Mm-hmm.

123
00:04:55,512 --> 00:04:57,035
Well, I'll get the dice
back out.

124
00:05:00,691 --> 00:05:02,693
[phone chimes]

125
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:09,961
Go away, Raj!

126
00:05:13,138 --> 00:05:15,358
What are you doing?

127
00:05:15,402 --> 00:05:18,143
I'm winning you back
Love Actuallystyle.

128
00:05:24,149 --> 00:05:25,412
I don't know what that means.

129
00:05:25,455 --> 00:05:28,371
Really? You've never
seen Love Actually?

130
00:05:28,415 --> 00:05:31,896
If you want to watch it
right now, I'll just wait.

131
00:05:33,376 --> 00:05:35,378
I have nothing to say to you.

132
00:05:35,422 --> 00:05:37,293
Look, we both made mistakes.

133
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:40,252
I am so sorry that
I spied on you.

134
00:05:40,296 --> 00:05:43,168
I didn't mean to, but
I know it was not okay.

135
00:05:44,605 --> 00:05:47,564
Now, do you want
to apologize to me?

136
00:05:47,608 --> 00:05:51,612
You also said you don't trust me
and that you barely know me.

137
00:05:51,655 --> 00:05:55,137
I really thought this would be
more of a back-and-forth thing.

138
00:05:55,180 --> 00:05:58,662
Honestly, Raj, why do you even
want to marry me?

139
00:05:58,706 --> 00:06:02,449
You know, family
and India and stuff.

140
00:06:02,492 --> 00:06:04,146
Here's what I think.

141
00:06:04,189 --> 00:06:05,974
All of your friends are married,

142
00:06:06,017 --> 00:06:08,019
and you don't want
to be left behind.

143
00:06:08,063 --> 00:06:10,544
And honestly, that's not
a good enough reason.

144
00:06:10,587 --> 00:06:14,286
Uh, okay, well, how
is that different

145
00:06:14,330 --> 00:06:16,288
than what you're doing? Hmm?

146
00:06:16,332 --> 00:06:17,681
Worried that you wasted

147
00:06:17,725 --> 00:06:20,423
so many years dating the
wrong people, and now,

148
00:06:20,467 --> 00:06:22,469
you're just looking
for a shortcut.

149
00:06:24,166 --> 00:06:26,168
You're right.
It's not different.

150
00:06:26,211 --> 00:06:27,169
Okay, so we agree.

151
00:06:27,212 --> 00:06:29,258
Yeah.
Great.

152
00:06:29,301 --> 00:06:31,042
Wait. What did we
just agree on?

153
00:06:31,086 --> 00:06:34,916
That we shouldn't
see each other anymore.

154
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:37,005
You know what?

155
00:06:37,048 --> 00:06:40,051
Why don't you shut the door,
and I'll just do the cards?

156
00:06:48,756 --> 00:06:51,498
Uh, do you remember
Penny's ex-boyfriend Zack?

157
00:06:51,541 --> 00:06:54,414
Leonard, I remember all
of Penny's ex-boyfriends.

158
00:06:54,457 --> 00:06:57,025
If you'd like, I could
list them alphabetically.

159
00:06:57,068 --> 00:06:58,809
No, thank you.

160
00:06:58,853 --> 00:07:00,071
Fun fact.
You would think

161
00:07:00,115 --> 00:07:02,030
Zack would be
the last one on the list,

162
00:07:02,073 --> 00:07:05,599
but she also dated two Zekes.

163
00:07:05,642 --> 00:07:08,166
Well, apparently,
Zack sold his company

164
00:07:08,210 --> 00:07:10,038
for a ton of money and retired.

165
00:07:10,081 --> 00:07:11,561
And that bothers you?

166
00:07:11,605 --> 00:07:14,172
I don't know. I mean...

167
00:07:14,216 --> 00:07:15,652
I guess so. Yeah.

168
00:07:15,696 --> 00:07:17,175
It doesn't seem fair.

169
00:07:17,219 --> 00:07:19,221
I work hard.

170
00:07:21,876 --> 00:07:23,834
I'm really smart.

171
00:07:27,098 --> 00:07:29,753
I've made substantial
contributions to my field.

172
00:07:32,190 --> 00:07:34,236
But Zack gets to be rich,

173
00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:36,630
while I'm still working
for a paycheck?

174
00:07:36,673 --> 00:07:39,067
Well, a lot of people
you don't know are rich.

175
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:41,417
That doesn't seem to bother you.
Mark Zuckerberg,

176
00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:43,419
Sultan of Brunei,
Gordon Letwin.

177
00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:46,509
Who's that?He's one of the first
11 employees of Microsoft.

178
00:07:46,553 --> 00:07:48,119
Yeah, well, I don't

179
00:07:48,163 --> 00:07:50,774
have to hang out
with Gordon Letwin.Well, that's too bad.

180
00:07:50,818 --> 00:07:53,298
He helped create
the HPFS file system.

181
00:07:53,342 --> 00:07:55,953
Oh, the stories he could tell.

182
00:07:55,997 --> 00:07:59,087
Penny told him we'd go have
dinner with him and his wife

183
00:07:59,130 --> 00:08:00,654
on their stupid boat.

184
00:08:00,697 --> 00:08:02,133
Well, just tell her
you don't want to go.

185
00:08:02,177 --> 00:08:05,615
Well, then, she'll think
I'm being jealous and petty.

186
00:08:05,659 --> 00:08:08,226
So you want to seem
mature and confident.

187
00:08:13,797 --> 00:08:17,105
I make one mistake, and she says
she doesn't want to marry me.

188
00:08:17,148 --> 00:08:19,542
Like she never
screwed up.Did she?

189
00:08:19,586 --> 00:08:22,676
Well, she agreed to marry me.

190
00:08:22,719 --> 00:08:24,460
Honestly,

191
00:08:24,504 --> 00:08:25,853
I think you dodged a bullet.

192
00:08:25,896 --> 00:08:27,550
I don't think
she was right for you.

193
00:08:27,594 --> 00:08:28,899
Howie, shh.

194
00:08:28,943 --> 00:08:30,031
What?

195
00:08:30,074 --> 00:08:31,075
You can't bad-mouth Anu.

196
00:08:31,119 --> 00:08:32,337
They're gonna
get back together,

197
00:08:32,381 --> 00:08:34,209
and you're gonna look
like a jerk.

198
00:08:34,252 --> 00:08:35,863
I mean, remember

199
00:08:35,906 --> 00:08:38,300
when we broke up, and Penny said
all those mean things about you?

200
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:44,219
What did she say?

201
00:08:44,262 --> 00:08:45,481
I don't want to get into it.

202
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:47,178
Some of it was hurtful,
most of it was true.

203
00:08:50,791 --> 00:08:54,229
So I'm just supposed
to lie to my friend?I don't want you to lie to me.

204
00:08:54,272 --> 00:08:55,578
No one's gonna lie to you.

205
00:08:55,622 --> 00:08:57,667
[whispers]:
Lie.

206
00:08:57,711 --> 00:08:59,756
She says

207
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,018
the only reason I'm marrying her

208
00:09:01,062 --> 00:09:02,280
is because
all my friends are married,

209
00:09:02,324 --> 00:09:03,499
and I don't want
to feel left out.

210
00:09:03,543 --> 00:09:06,328
Oh, that's nonsense.No.

211
00:09:06,371 --> 00:09:07,416
She's right.

212
00:09:08,460 --> 00:09:10,332
[quietly]:
Now what do I say?

213
00:09:12,595 --> 00:09:15,119
So, Marissa, how

214
00:09:15,163 --> 00:09:16,556
did you guys meet?

215
00:09:16,599 --> 00:09:18,688
Oh, it's a pretty
funny story.

216
00:09:18,732 --> 00:09:21,038
We met in a bookstore.

217
00:09:24,085 --> 00:09:26,087
That isfunny.

218
00:09:27,305 --> 00:09:29,351
Yeah, I was just there
using the bathroom,

219
00:09:29,394 --> 00:09:32,136
but this one had a stack
of books, like, this tall.

220
00:09:32,180 --> 00:09:33,877
Oh. So, you really like to read?

221
00:09:33,921 --> 00:09:35,923
Oh, no. I work there.

222
00:09:37,141 --> 00:09:38,926
Yeah, she is super smart.

223
00:09:38,969 --> 00:09:41,145
Seriously, you name,
like, any book,

224
00:09:41,189 --> 00:09:43,017
she'll tell you if
she's heard of it.

225
00:09:43,060 --> 00:09:44,801
Go on, try her.

226
00:09:44,845 --> 00:09:45,846
Oh, uh, well, uh...

227
00:09:45,889 --> 00:09:47,108
Catcher in the Rye.

228
00:09:47,151 --> 00:09:48,065
Nope.

229
00:09:48,109 --> 00:09:50,154
ZACK:
Look at that, Penny.

230
00:09:50,198 --> 00:09:52,679
I guess we both like nerds.

231
00:09:53,723 --> 00:09:56,770
So, uh, we gonna
take this thing out?

232
00:09:56,813 --> 00:09:59,599
Nah. It's a little
choppy tonight.

233
00:09:59,642 --> 00:10:02,210
Yeah, that's okay-- this is
nice, sitting under the stars.

234
00:10:02,253 --> 00:10:03,951
It's actually kind of peaceful.

235
00:10:03,994 --> 00:10:06,257
Well, it's a beautiful boat.

236
00:10:06,301 --> 00:10:07,476
Thanks, man.

237
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:08,782
We love it.

238
00:10:08,825 --> 00:10:10,827
Although, he's so tall
he bangs his head

239
00:10:10,871 --> 00:10:12,481
almost every time
he goes downstairs.

240
00:10:12,524 --> 00:10:15,179
After the first couple,
you don't even feel it.

241
00:10:15,223 --> 00:10:17,181
Where are our manners?

242
00:10:17,225 --> 00:10:19,009
Zack, let's get our guests
something to drink.

243
00:10:19,053 --> 00:10:20,707
Oh, you got it, babe.

244
00:10:20,750 --> 00:10:22,709
[quietly]:
I can't believe
that guy's rich.

245
00:10:22,752 --> 00:10:24,014
MARISSA:
Ooh, watch your head.

246
00:10:24,058 --> 00:10:25,320
ZACK:
That was a close one.

247
00:10:27,104 --> 00:10:29,672
Are you jealous?I know, I know,
I shouldn't be.

248
00:10:29,716 --> 00:10:31,892
He's super sweet.
I should be happy for them.

249
00:10:31,935 --> 00:10:33,633
Oh, it's driving
me crazy, too.

250
00:10:33,676 --> 00:10:35,678
Really?Yes. I was trying
to pretend

251
00:10:35,722 --> 00:10:37,375
like it wasn't so you
wouldn't think I was petty.

252
00:10:37,419 --> 00:10:40,074
Wha-- turns out
we're both petty.

253
00:10:40,117 --> 00:10:42,424
I love you so much.

254
00:10:42,467 --> 00:10:44,078
Aw.

255
00:10:44,121 --> 00:10:45,383
Cheers, guys.

256
00:10:45,427 --> 00:10:47,081
Aw, thanks.Thank you.

257
00:10:47,124 --> 00:10:48,648
[laughs]

258
00:10:48,691 --> 00:10:51,912
So listen, I got
to be honest.

259
00:10:51,955 --> 00:10:55,785
We sort of have another reason
for asking you here.

260
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,396
We want to have a baby,

261
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,443
but we can't do it
on our own.
It could be

262
00:11:01,486 --> 00:11:03,750
because of the game me and
my frat brothers used to play

263
00:11:03,793 --> 00:11:06,404
where we kicked each other
in the balls over and over.

264
00:11:07,928 --> 00:11:09,799
But the doc says
there's no telling.

265
00:11:11,366 --> 00:11:13,716
We just don't know.

266
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,892
Huh.

267
00:11:15,936 --> 00:11:18,634
You went to college.

268
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:21,289
And Zack's
always admired you

269
00:11:21,332 --> 00:11:23,726
because you're
the smartest person he knows.

270
00:11:23,770 --> 00:11:25,293
Okay, whoa, whoa.

271
00:11:25,336 --> 00:11:28,252
Whoa, whoa. You know, this
has been such a nice evening.

272
00:11:28,296 --> 00:11:31,081
Let's all just stop before
anyone says any more things.

273
00:11:31,125 --> 00:11:34,650
Leonard, would you be
the father of our baby?Aw, you said a thing.

274
00:11:42,397 --> 00:11:44,791
Wow, this is
really flattering.

275
00:11:44,834 --> 00:11:47,924
And also really weird, right?

276
00:11:47,968 --> 00:11:49,491
ZACK:
Oh, just to be clear,

277
00:11:49,534 --> 00:11:52,537
you don't get to...
you know.

278
00:11:52,581 --> 00:11:54,975
No, I...

279
00:11:55,018 --> 00:11:56,759
I got it.Just because I slept

280
00:11:56,803 --> 00:11:59,893
with your wife doesn't mean
you get to sleep with mine.

281
00:12:01,329 --> 00:12:03,026
We... we get it,

282
00:12:03,070 --> 00:12:06,769
but... thank you
for saying it out loud.

283
00:12:06,813 --> 00:12:08,162
You're welcome.

284
00:12:09,511 --> 00:12:12,688
I know it's a big ask,
but it would mean so much to us.

285
00:12:12,732 --> 00:12:13,907
ZACK:
Yeah, and we

286
00:12:13,950 --> 00:12:15,996
really don't want
a stranger's, you know...

287
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:18,999
I know....sperm.

288
00:12:19,042 --> 00:12:22,306
And Zack's always talked about
what a great guy Leonard is.

289
00:12:22,350 --> 00:12:24,134
I...

290
00:12:24,178 --> 00:12:26,876
[chuckles]: I really
don't know what to say.

291
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,096
Really? You don't know
what to say?

292
00:12:29,139 --> 00:12:31,925
You know, I-I think we
should talk about this.

293
00:12:31,968 --> 00:12:34,101
Oh, yeah. Definitely,
you guys should talk, yeah.

294
00:12:34,144 --> 00:12:36,146
Take your time.

295
00:12:39,584 --> 00:12:41,891
He means privately.

296
00:12:41,935 --> 00:12:43,023
Right. Sorry.Sure. Yep.

297
00:12:43,066 --> 00:12:44,894
Come on, Zack.Okay. Yeah.

298
00:12:44,938 --> 00:12:46,722
Okay.

299
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,463
You really think
those two should be parents?

300
00:12:48,506 --> 00:12:50,117
There's nothing
wrong with them.

301
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,249
[loud thump]ZACK: Ow!

302
00:12:55,513 --> 00:12:57,994
[computer chiming]

303
00:12:59,648 --> 00:13:01,606
Hello, Daddy.

304
00:13:01,650 --> 00:13:05,001
Did you install a camera
to spy on your fiancée?

305
00:13:05,045 --> 00:13:06,263
What?!

306
00:13:06,307 --> 00:13:08,483
No!

307
00:13:08,526 --> 00:13:10,006
That's what her parents told me

308
00:13:10,050 --> 00:13:12,095
when they said they
were calling off the wedding.

309
00:13:12,139 --> 00:13:15,185
But I told them you would never
do such a thing.

310
00:13:15,229 --> 00:13:16,186
Thank you.

311
00:13:16,970 --> 00:13:18,798
I mean, I did install a camera

312
00:13:18,841 --> 00:13:22,453
and I did spy on her, but I did
not install it tospy on her.

313
00:13:22,497 --> 00:13:25,108
Well, that's not going
to be ourstory.

314
00:13:25,152 --> 00:13:27,632
Our story is that she's a liar.

315
00:13:27,676 --> 00:13:29,069
And-and old.

316
00:13:29,112 --> 00:13:31,854
An old, dirty liar.

317
00:13:31,898 --> 00:13:33,508
Oh, no.
She's-she's actually great.

318
00:13:33,551 --> 00:13:35,466
I'm the one who screwed up.

319
00:13:35,510 --> 00:13:37,164
Well, don't say that to them.

320
00:13:37,207 --> 00:13:39,035
She's bad. You're good.

321
00:13:39,079 --> 00:13:42,430
They have to pay me back
for my wedding deposits.

322
00:13:42,473 --> 00:13:44,171
[sighs]
This is all my fault.

323
00:13:44,214 --> 00:13:46,260
I should have...
I should have just trusted her.

324
00:13:46,303 --> 00:13:48,697
So you're saying
you still want to get married?

325
00:13:48,740 --> 00:13:50,699
Fine. Then I'll call her parents

326
00:13:50,742 --> 00:13:52,744
and we'll straighten
this whole thing out.

327
00:13:52,788 --> 00:13:54,572
I don't think
she wants to marry me.

328
00:13:54,616 --> 00:13:55,965
And honestly...

329
00:13:56,009 --> 00:13:58,402
she deserves someone better.

330
00:13:58,446 --> 00:14:02,058
[sighs] Rajesh, you need to stop
being so hard on yourself.

331
00:14:02,102 --> 00:14:04,191
You're a good man.

332
00:14:04,234 --> 00:14:05,627
[chuckles]:
Wow.

333
00:14:05,670 --> 00:14:07,890
Y-You've never told me that.

334
00:14:07,934 --> 00:14:10,153
You're also a dope.

335
00:14:10,197 --> 00:14:13,069
That you've said.

336
00:14:13,113 --> 00:14:15,071
But your heart's
in the right place,

337
00:14:15,115 --> 00:14:16,681
and you deserve happiness.

338
00:14:16,725 --> 00:14:19,510
So you just need to figure out
what you want,

339
00:14:19,554 --> 00:14:22,862
and if that means cancelling the
wedding, we cancel the wedding.

340
00:14:22,905 --> 00:14:24,472
Thank you.

341
00:14:24,515 --> 00:14:26,561
But figure it out quickly,
or I'll be celebrating

342
00:14:26,604 --> 00:14:28,563
my next birthday
with a lot more elephants

343
00:14:28,606 --> 00:14:30,870
and marigolds than I expected.

344
00:14:33,611 --> 00:14:36,658
And Leonard just stood
there with a big, dumb
smile on his face,

345
00:14:36,701 --> 00:14:39,704
like he was watching a puppy
and a monkey make friends.

346
00:14:41,054 --> 00:14:43,926
Well, I can see how he'd
be flattered to be asked.

347
00:14:43,970 --> 00:14:45,536
It's not flattering.
It's creepy.

348
00:14:45,580 --> 00:14:48,235
Well, something can be both
flattering andcreepy.

349
00:14:48,278 --> 00:14:50,846
You know, just the other night,
Sheldon said that my feet

350
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:53,022
looked like
Richard Feynman's hands.

351
00:14:53,066 --> 00:14:54,719
Really? So
you'd be okay

352
00:14:54,763 --> 00:14:57,766
if someone wanted to use Sheldon
as their sperm donor?

353
00:14:57,809 --> 00:15:00,900
Oh, absolutely not. I am
the only handmaid in this tale.

354
00:15:03,511 --> 00:15:05,861
So Leonard's
really considering this?

355
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:07,297
Yes. We got in a
huge fight about it.

356
00:15:07,341 --> 00:15:09,212
He said, well, if I
don't want to have his baby,

357
00:15:09,256 --> 00:15:11,388
then why shouldn't someone else
be able to? Do you believe that?

358
00:15:14,870 --> 00:15:16,219
What?

359
00:15:16,263 --> 00:15:19,266
Well, there is
a deep-seated biological drive

360
00:15:19,309 --> 00:15:20,876
to pass on your genes.

361
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,486
It's only natural.

362
00:15:22,530 --> 00:15:24,184
So you're on his side?

363
00:15:24,227 --> 00:15:26,142
Well, viewing
Leonard as a mammal,

364
00:15:26,186 --> 00:15:28,405
it's perfectly
understandable.

365
00:15:29,232 --> 00:15:31,278
But viewing him
as your husband, he stinks.

366
00:15:31,321 --> 00:15:33,454
And we hate him.

367
00:15:36,022 --> 00:15:39,242
[video game weapons firing]Really? Zack
wanted you to donate

368
00:15:39,286 --> 00:15:41,592
your genetic material
for his baby?

369
00:15:41,636 --> 00:15:44,987
Yeah. So I'd be helping out a
couple who really want a baby,

370
00:15:45,031 --> 00:15:48,121
and they were gonna pay us,
and Penny freaked out about it.

371
00:15:48,164 --> 00:15:49,949
That doesn't make
any sense.
I know.

372
00:15:49,992 --> 00:15:52,038
They wanted you?

373
00:15:52,081 --> 00:15:53,865
[video game tires screeching,
car crashing]

374
00:15:53,909 --> 00:15:55,737
Yes, Sheldon,
they wanted me.

375
00:15:55,780 --> 00:15:58,392
I'm smart. I'm nice.I'm smart. I'm nice.

376
00:15:58,435 --> 00:16:02,265
And I can eat cheese
without clearing out a room.

377
00:16:02,309 --> 00:16:04,485
Are you upset he
didn't ask you?

378
00:16:04,528 --> 00:16:06,704
Of course not. I just
think it's interesting

379
00:16:06,748 --> 00:16:09,838
that of all the people
he knows, he thinks
you're the best choice.

380
00:16:09,881 --> 00:16:11,840
Well, he does.

381
00:16:11,883 --> 00:16:14,364
I don't see why Penny
is so against this.

382
00:16:14,408 --> 00:16:16,627
Well, perhaps Penny's worried
that you haven't considered

383
00:16:16,671 --> 00:16:19,326
the emotional toll of knowing
there's a child out there

384
00:16:19,369 --> 00:16:21,763
who is biologically yours
but not actually yours.

385
00:16:21,806 --> 00:16:24,331
[video game tires screech]

386
00:16:24,374 --> 00:16:26,637
Wow, that's
really insightful.

387
00:16:26,681 --> 00:16:28,857
Yeah, I'm taller than you
and I don't have asthma.

388
00:16:28,900 --> 00:16:30,380
Those people are crazy.

389
00:16:31,599 --> 00:16:33,601
[phone chimes]

390
00:16:37,561 --> 00:16:40,260
Come on, I know you're there,
and I know you know it's me.

391
00:16:42,044 --> 00:16:43,480
[groans]

392
00:16:45,395 --> 00:16:48,094
You're just making this harder.Look...

393
00:16:48,137 --> 00:16:49,834
you were right.

394
00:16:49,878 --> 00:16:52,315
I was doing this for
the wrong reasons.

395
00:16:52,359 --> 00:16:55,101
You deserve to marry
someone who knows

396
00:16:55,144 --> 00:16:57,886
how amazing you are...
and who proposes

397
00:16:57,929 --> 00:17:01,455
because he doesn't want to spend
a single day without you.

398
00:17:01,498 --> 00:17:05,372
Not... not because he wants
to catch up to his friends.

399
00:17:05,415 --> 00:17:07,548
Thank you.

400
00:17:07,591 --> 00:17:12,161
And I want you to know, I
think I could be that man.

401
00:17:12,205 --> 00:17:14,816
Raj, I'm not gonna marry you.

402
00:17:14,859 --> 00:17:17,340
I'm not asking you to.Then why are you here?

403
00:17:17,384 --> 00:17:18,602
Because I like you.

404
00:17:18,646 --> 00:17:20,256
Okay? I like you.

405
00:17:20,300 --> 00:17:22,345
I-I like you enough
to start this relationship

406
00:17:22,389 --> 00:17:25,305
at the beginning,
not in the middle.

407
00:17:25,348 --> 00:17:26,610
So...

408
00:17:26,654 --> 00:17:29,396
will you go out
on a date with me?

409
00:17:29,439 --> 00:17:31,920
[sighs]
I don't know.

410
00:17:37,143 --> 00:17:39,232
Okay.

411
00:17:39,275 --> 00:17:40,929
But I warn you,

412
00:17:40,972 --> 00:17:43,149
I just got out of
a weird relationship,

413
00:17:43,192 --> 00:17:45,760
and I might complain
about my ex a lot.

414
00:17:45,803 --> 00:17:49,720
Maybe he's being weird
because he doesn't know how
to ask for his ring back.

415
00:18:00,035 --> 00:18:00,862
Hey.

416
00:18:00,905 --> 00:18:03,082
Hi.

417
00:18:03,125 --> 00:18:04,605
Where you been?

418
00:18:04,648 --> 00:18:06,520
Just out.

419
00:18:06,563 --> 00:18:08,217
All right, look, um...

420
00:18:08,261 --> 00:18:10,567
I'm sorry that we fought before.

421
00:18:10,611 --> 00:18:12,917
I know this is
a really unusual situation,

422
00:18:12,961 --> 00:18:15,920
and if you don't want me
to do it, I won't.

423
00:18:15,964 --> 00:18:17,661
Really?

424
00:18:17,705 --> 00:18:19,185
Yeah.

425
00:18:19,228 --> 00:18:21,665
We're a team.
We're in this together.

426
00:18:23,450 --> 00:18:25,452
I'll be right back.

427
00:18:39,857 --> 00:18:41,598
What is that?

428
00:18:41,642 --> 00:18:43,687
It's a sample cup.

429
00:18:43,731 --> 00:18:48,170
Really? 'Cause it looks like
the top off the NyQuil bottle.

430
00:18:49,389 --> 00:18:51,434
It's the closest thing
I could find.

431
00:18:51,478 --> 00:18:54,089
It's a gesture. Shut up.All right, sorry.

432
00:18:55,482 --> 00:18:58,615
So... are you saying
you're okay with this?

433
00:18:58,659 --> 00:19:00,139
[sighs]:
I don't know,

434
00:19:00,182 --> 00:19:02,489
but... when I told you
I didn't want to have kids,

435
00:19:02,532 --> 00:19:05,231
you didn't have a say
in that, so...

436
00:19:05,274 --> 00:19:08,059
maybe I don't need
to have a say in this.

437
00:19:09,060 --> 00:19:10,627
Thank you.

438
00:19:10,671 --> 00:19:13,413
They couldn't have picked
a better person.

439
00:19:13,456 --> 00:19:15,415
[chuckles]

440
00:19:17,199 --> 00:19:19,158
Are you calling Zack?

441
00:19:19,201 --> 00:19:21,856
No, Sheldon. Would you say
that last part one more time?

442
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:24,641
Oh, my...

443
00:19:24,685 --> 00:19:26,687
