1
00:00:03,504 --> 00:00:04,755
Can we start the movie?

2
00:00:05,298 --> 00:00:06,924
Before Sheldon gets here?

3
00:00:07,008 --> 00:00:09,594
Last time we did that, he didn't
talk to us for a month.

4
00:00:10,428 --> 00:00:11,679
So do it!

5
00:00:12,471 --> 00:00:13,931
Hold on. Where is he?

6
00:00:14,015 --> 00:00:17,143
Well, according to his text,
he was on the second floor,

7
00:00:17,268 --> 00:00:18,769
then he stopped to tie his shoe.

8
00:00:19,896 --> 00:00:20,897
(INCOMING MESSAGE ALERT)

9
00:00:21,981 --> 00:00:23,566
"All tied, and..."

10
00:00:24,066 --> 00:00:25,443
- Hello!
- Hi.

11
00:00:25,818 --> 00:00:28,905
Sorry we're late.
Amy took forever tying my shoe.

12
00:00:30,781 --> 00:00:34,035
All right!
Who's excited to see a documentary?

13
00:00:34,118 --> 00:00:36,078
Oh, I know this one.
Nobody ever.

14
00:00:36,162 --> 00:00:38,247
Hey! This one's
going to be great.

15
00:00:38,331 --> 00:00:39,582
This is about the rivalry

16
00:00:39,665 --> 00:00:42,210
between a cool renegade
scientist, Nikola Tesla,

17
00:00:42,293 --> 00:00:44,170
and his arch-nemesis,
Thomas Edison.

18
00:00:44,253 --> 00:00:46,505
And it's the greatest
scientific feud of all time.

19
00:00:46,589 --> 00:00:49,342
I mean, you can forget
about Leibniz and Newton.

20
00:00:49,508 --> 00:00:50,551
Done.

21
00:00:50,635 --> 00:00:54,222
So, Tesla's the one
that invented the electric car?

22
00:00:54,555 --> 00:00:55,723
(ALL LAUGHING)

23
00:00:56,182 --> 00:00:59,810
No, Penny.
No, the car is just named after him.

24
00:01:00,102 --> 00:01:01,729
Okay, you don't have to be
so smug about it.

25
00:01:01,812 --> 00:01:03,064
You know, you went
to see the movie It

26
00:01:03,147 --> 00:01:05,775
because you thought
it was about scary I.T. guys.

27
00:01:08,694 --> 00:01:11,405
Tesla was a genius who
invented our electrical grid.

28
00:01:11,489 --> 00:01:13,324
Edison just wanted to
get rich and famous.

29
00:01:13,407 --> 00:01:14,909
Didn't he invent the light bulb?

30
00:01:15,076 --> 00:01:16,202
Mmm, that's what
he wants you to think.

31
00:01:16,285 --> 00:01:18,788
But without the foundational
work of Ebenezer Kinnersley,

32
00:01:18,871 --> 00:01:21,290
Warren de la Rue
and James Bowman Lindsay,

33
00:01:21,374 --> 00:01:23,417
you wouldn't know Edison
any more than you know

34
00:01:23,501 --> 00:01:26,671
Ebenezer Kinnersley, Warren de la Rue
or James Bowman Lindsay.

35
00:01:27,296 --> 00:01:29,924
Isn't he sexy all fired up?

36
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,053
He really gets my current alternating,
if you know what I mean.

37
00:01:35,096 --> 00:01:37,682
Edison was kind of a
publicity hog and a bully.

38
00:01:37,765 --> 00:01:39,850
Yeah, he electrocuted
an elephant named Topsy

39
00:01:39,934 --> 00:01:41,602
just to make himself famous.

40
00:01:41,686 --> 00:01:44,105
If I had an elephant named Topsy,
he would want for nothing.

41
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:47,233
Also, he'd be named Jumbo.

42
00:01:48,234 --> 00:01:51,696
And worse than that, Edison
filmed the first on-screen kiss,

43
00:01:51,821 --> 00:01:54,156
so he's basically
a pornographer.

44
00:01:55,741 --> 00:01:57,493
Although every time
I put that in Wikipedia,

45
00:01:57,576 --> 00:01:59,412
someone takes it out.

46
00:02:01,372 --> 00:02:03,416
Is your current still alternating?

47
00:02:03,499 --> 00:02:05,835
We're lucky there aren't
any elephants in here.

48
00:02:08,337 --> 00:02:10,339
(THEME SONG PLAYING)

49
00:02:34,488 --> 00:02:36,240
You know, that documentary
last night was actually

50
00:02:36,324 --> 00:02:37,825
better than I
thought it would be.

51
00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:38,951
Really?

52
00:02:39,035 --> 00:02:40,328
Should've been about
Samuel Morse

53
00:02:40,411 --> 00:02:42,455
the way they telegraphed
that ending.

54
00:02:43,205 --> 00:02:45,124
You know, I already pretended to laugh
at that joke once.

55
00:02:45,207 --> 00:02:46,751
Do I have to do it again?

56
00:02:47,877 --> 00:02:49,587
Yeah, I'd appreciate it. (CHUCKLES)

57
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:53,341
(FORCED CHUCKLE)
Samuel Morse. You kill me.

58
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,595
Leonard, can you
drive me to work?

59
00:02:57,678 --> 00:02:59,221
Yeah, sure.
Hey, the guys and I

60
00:02:59,305 --> 00:03:01,057
were talking about
going to see the Tesla coil

61
00:03:01,140 --> 00:03:03,809
at the observatory later on,
if you want to join.

62
00:03:03,976 --> 00:03:05,561
Oh, I'm sorry, I can't.
I'm busy.

63
00:03:05,978 --> 00:03:07,897
- Why? What are you doing?
- Leonard, what are you doing?

64
00:03:07,980 --> 00:03:10,358
He said he can't go.
Make a sad face, move on.

65
00:03:12,068 --> 00:03:15,154
It's fine.
I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to.

66
00:03:15,237 --> 00:03:16,280
- What does that mean?
- Leonard!

67
00:03:16,364 --> 00:03:18,574
Sad face, sad face.

68
00:03:19,241 --> 00:03:21,494
I mean, I would like to,
but I just can't, you know,

69
00:03:21,577 --> 00:03:23,704
because it's classified
and top secret.

70
00:03:24,663 --> 00:03:26,540
Hold on, are you still
working for the military?

71
00:03:26,624 --> 00:03:27,625
I'm so glad
you figured that out!

72
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:29,335
It was killing me
keeping it a secret!

73
00:03:30,336 --> 00:03:31,796
I thought they fired you guys.

74
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:33,839
They did,
but then they hired me back.

75
00:03:34,090 --> 00:03:35,883
Well, you better not be
working on our project,

76
00:03:35,966 --> 00:03:37,009
because we're a team.

77
00:03:37,093 --> 00:03:40,262
Leonard, there is
no "I" in team.

78
00:03:40,596 --> 00:03:41,889
However, there is an "I" in

79
00:03:41,972 --> 00:03:44,183
"I'm working with the military
and you're not."

80
00:03:45,309 --> 00:03:47,520
There's five of them, in fact.

81
00:03:50,064 --> 00:03:51,065
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

82
00:03:51,941 --> 00:03:54,276
Hey, hey.
I got a big surprise for you.

83
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,278
Is it pie and ice cream?

84
00:03:57,780 --> 00:03:59,240
Wow, did I oversell it.

85
00:03:59,323 --> 00:04:00,908
It's Raj and Ruchi!

86
00:04:01,867 --> 00:04:03,744
- Hello.
- Hey. Hi.

87
00:04:03,828 --> 00:04:05,371
Hey, what are
you two doing here?

88
00:04:05,454 --> 00:04:07,706
We won't stay long.
I just wanted to drop something off

89
00:04:07,790 --> 00:04:09,708
from me and the girls at work.

90
00:04:09,792 --> 00:04:12,336
None of the girls at work
like me enough to get me a gift.

91
00:04:12,420 --> 00:04:14,338
Okay, so you'll know
why everyone at the office

92
00:04:14,422 --> 00:04:15,881
has the same handwriting.

93
00:04:17,341 --> 00:04:18,509
I really appreciate the thought,

94
00:04:18,592 --> 00:04:20,886
but it's not necessary.
I'll be back soon.

95
00:04:20,970 --> 00:04:23,681
Don't worry about work.
You take all the time you need.

96
00:04:23,764 --> 00:04:25,433
Yeah, just turn off your brain

97
00:04:25,516 --> 00:04:27,893
and let your uterus do its magic.

98
00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:32,064
It's the star of the show now.

99
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:35,818
Okay, wasn't sure how long
I should let you guys stay.

100
00:04:35,901 --> 00:04:38,362
Now I know! Get out!

101
00:04:38,863 --> 00:04:40,489
Good to see you. You look amazing.

102
00:04:40,573 --> 00:04:42,450
Thanks for coming!

That bitch.

104
00:04:47,246 --> 00:04:50,916
Come on, he means well. He's just trying
to impress his girlfriend.

105
00:04:51,792 --> 00:04:54,879
I'm talking about Ruchi.
She's after my job.

106
00:04:54,962 --> 00:04:57,840
Why do you think she said,
"Take all the time you need?"

107
00:04:58,382 --> 00:05:00,426
Because she was being nice?

108
00:05:00,509 --> 00:05:03,512
No, she's trying to steal
my projects while I'm at home

109
00:05:03,596 --> 00:05:06,390
taking care of this useless
plant and my dumb family.

110
00:05:08,851 --> 00:05:10,895
I'm only saying this
because I love you

111
00:05:10,978 --> 00:05:13,147
and because you can't
reach me from that bed,

112
00:05:13,230 --> 00:05:15,316
but you sound a little crazy.

113
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,611
I love you, too, but I could
fling this card in your eye

114
00:05:18,694 --> 00:05:20,571
like a ninja throwing star.

115
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:23,782
I don't believe you.

116
00:05:29,205 --> 00:05:31,457
Why would the military want Sheldon?

117
00:05:31,665 --> 00:05:33,751
I don't know. Target practice?

118
00:05:35,336 --> 00:05:37,880
Well, he better not be
working on our guidance system.

119
00:05:37,963 --> 00:05:39,131
That was my idea.

120
00:05:39,215 --> 00:05:42,176
Why don't we call Colonel Williams
and find out what's going on.

121
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:45,262
Great. I want answers,
and he'd better give them to us.

- Hi, sir. Leonard has a question.

124
00:05:54,188 --> 00:05:57,107
Hey, is Sheldon working on
our project again?

125
00:05:57,358 --> 00:05:59,902
- Did he say that?
- No, he wouldn't tell us.

126
00:05:59,985 --> 00:06:01,028
Oh.

127
00:06:01,111 --> 00:06:03,322
So he can keep his mouth shut.

128
00:06:04,698 --> 00:06:06,700
How do I get him to do that?

129
00:06:07,493 --> 00:06:10,371
Is he working on
our guidance system or not?

130
00:06:10,454 --> 00:06:13,499
Dr. Cooper contacted us
with an idea on how to modify

131
00:06:13,582 --> 00:06:16,043
your technology into
a communication system,

132
00:06:16,126 --> 00:06:17,461
and it seemed interesting.

133
00:06:18,003 --> 00:06:21,048
But our team developed
that technology.

134
00:06:21,131 --> 00:06:22,508
And he was your team leader.

135
00:06:22,591 --> 00:06:24,176
Well, who said
he was team leader?

136
00:06:24,385 --> 00:06:25,469
He did.

137
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,306
And I like that kind of
"take charge" attitude.

138
00:06:29,390 --> 00:06:31,475
We can have "take charge" attitudes.

139
00:06:31,559 --> 00:06:34,019
Then why didn't either of you
ask to be team leader?

140
00:06:34,103 --> 00:06:36,438
We didn't want to step
on anyone's toes.

tell us who you thought...

- Are we done?
- LEONARD: No, no.

and telling you

145
00:06:49,159 --> 00:06:50,995

kind of a person.

She's generous and charitable.

You're just saying that
'cause she's sleeping with you.

find out, it'd be great.

what are you gonna do?

Nothing.

00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:11,575
Eh, I already laughed today.

173
00:08:12,660 --> 00:08:14,870
I know. It was when I stubbed my toe.

174
00:08:15,871 --> 00:08:17,623
(CHUCKLES) Still funny.

175
00:08:18,957 --> 00:08:19,958
Drama?

176
00:08:20,042 --> 00:08:21,877
Nah, I've already seen
someone cry today.

177
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,671
It really hurt, Sheldon!

178
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:25,964
(KNOCK ON DOOR)

179
00:08:26,674 --> 00:08:28,717
Hey. We talked to Colonel Williams.

180
00:08:28,801 --> 00:08:29,802
He told us everything.

181
00:08:29,885 --> 00:08:31,428
I'm sorry, can we do this
another time?

182
00:08:31,512 --> 00:08:34,932
Amy's just about to realize she
wants to watch a Hulk marathon.

183
00:08:36,058 --> 00:08:37,059
What's going on?

184
00:08:37,142 --> 00:08:39,937
Sheldon went to the Air Force
behind our backs.

185
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:41,563
I did nothing of the sort.

186
00:08:41,730 --> 00:08:43,023
I had an idea

187
00:08:43,107 --> 00:08:45,192
for a neutrino-based
communication system,

188
00:08:45,275 --> 00:08:47,361
I presented it to them,
and they were interested.

189
00:08:47,444 --> 00:08:49,279
But your communication system

190
00:08:49,363 --> 00:08:51,365
was based on our guidance system.

191
00:08:51,824 --> 00:08:53,617
And sonar is based on bats.

192
00:08:53,701 --> 00:08:55,119
You don't see them
hanging upside down

193
00:08:55,202 --> 00:08:57,246
in a patent attorney's office.

194
00:08:58,038 --> 00:09:00,582
You know what, you like to think
that you're just like Tesla,

195
00:09:00,666 --> 00:09:02,960
but the truth is
you're exactly like Edison.

196
00:09:03,544 --> 00:09:06,213
- You take that back.
- No, he's right.

197
00:09:06,296 --> 00:09:09,967
You are a bully, a credit hog
and a self-promoter.

198
00:09:10,050 --> 00:09:14,805
And if anyone around here
is like Tesla, it's us.

199
00:09:16,807 --> 00:09:18,726
Yeah.

200
00:09:21,729 --> 00:09:24,440
Can you believe they said
I was just like Edison?

201
00:09:24,523 --> 00:09:27,151
Yeah, and in front of a lady, no less.

202
00:09:27,276 --> 00:09:29,319
Well, you are
building on their work

203
00:09:29,486 --> 00:09:30,904
and taking the credit for it.

204
00:09:30,988 --> 00:09:32,614
That's a classic Edison move.

205
00:09:33,157 --> 00:09:34,158
Oh, yeah?

206
00:09:34,241 --> 00:09:36,368
Well, if I'm Edison
and you love me,

207
00:09:36,452 --> 00:09:38,036
then what does that say
about you?

208
00:09:38,704 --> 00:09:41,957
- I honestly don't know.
- Okay.

209
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,293
Well, I have to google
some stuff about Mrs. Edison.

210
00:09:44,376 --> 00:09:46,545
I'll be right back.

211
00:09:51,675 --> 00:09:52,968
You know whose fault this is?

212
00:09:53,051 --> 00:09:55,220
I do. Yours.

213
00:09:55,637 --> 00:09:57,765
No, my mother's.

214
00:09:57,848 --> 00:09:59,850
"Go make friends, Sheldon."

215
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:04,104
What happens?
Twenty years later, they call me names.

216
00:10:05,773 --> 00:10:08,192
I don't think what they
called you is the point here.

217
00:10:08,275 --> 00:10:10,027
Oh, yeah? How would you feel

218
00:10:10,235 --> 00:10:13,280
if I called you the name of a
neuroscientist you didn't like?

219
00:10:13,572 --> 00:10:15,824
Do you know the name
of any neuroscientist?

220
00:10:16,241 --> 00:10:17,284
Of course.

221
00:10:17,618 --> 00:10:18,619
Not me?

222
00:10:20,162 --> 00:10:21,413
Then no.

223
00:10:23,457 --> 00:10:24,917
Do you think they're right, Amy?

224
00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:28,504
Do you think I'm like Edison?

225
00:10:30,339 --> 00:10:32,591
Sheldon, I don't think you're upset

226
00:10:32,674 --> 00:10:35,761
because of what kind of
scientist they said you're like.

227
00:10:35,886 --> 00:10:39,348
I think you're upset because
your friends' feelings got hurt.

228
00:10:40,849 --> 00:10:42,684
You're right.

229
00:10:42,768 --> 00:10:45,187
I care too much about
other people's feelings.

230
00:10:47,231 --> 00:10:49,650
It's always been my fatal flaw.

231
00:10:51,443 --> 00:10:52,444
Sheldon, I don't think...

232
00:10:52,528 --> 00:10:55,072
No, no, not now, Amy.
I'm growing as a person.

233
00:10:58,784 --> 00:11:00,619
That was fun.

234
00:11:00,702 --> 00:11:02,579
Put her there, buddy.

235
00:11:04,081 --> 00:11:06,625
I am not fist bumping
you after we have sex.

236
00:11:06,917 --> 00:11:09,336
You're the one who wanted
to keep things casual.

237
00:11:09,419 --> 00:11:11,922
There's a difference
between casual and weird.

238
00:11:12,214 --> 00:11:13,924
Not the way I do it.

239
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,513
So, how was your day?

240
00:11:19,596 --> 00:11:21,723
Like, how's work?

241
00:11:22,349 --> 00:11:24,726
Oh, great. With Bernadette gone,

242
00:11:24,810 --> 00:11:26,979
I'm getting to handle all her projects.

243
00:11:27,271 --> 00:11:30,148
Well, she's not gone.
She'll be back soon.

244
00:11:30,941 --> 00:11:33,151
Not too soon, let's hope.

245
00:11:35,112 --> 00:11:37,155
So it turns out Ruchi is totally

246
00:11:37,239 --> 00:11:38,866
trying to take over
Bernadette's projects.

247
00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:40,951
Wow, she just told you
that out of the blue?

248
00:11:41,034 --> 00:11:42,744
Yeah, yeah,
we had just made love.

249
00:11:42,828 --> 00:11:44,496
It was so beautiful.

250
00:11:45,831 --> 00:11:47,249
Our caramel-colored bodies

251
00:11:47,332 --> 00:11:49,001
were entwined like erotic taffy...

252
00:11:49,084 --> 00:11:50,836
Get to the point!

253
00:11:52,170 --> 00:11:53,171
Sorry, yeah.

254
00:11:53,255 --> 00:11:55,591
(STAMMERING) I asked her about work,
and she just admitted

255
00:11:55,674 --> 00:11:57,634
she has her eyes
on Bernadette's projects.

256
00:11:57,843 --> 00:11:58,927
Can't believe she
would take advantage

257
00:11:59,011 --> 00:12:01,305
of a pregnant lady like that.
So what did you do?

258
00:12:01,388 --> 00:12:02,764
What do you think I did?

259
00:12:02,848 --> 00:12:05,726
I made small talk for 20 minutes
and had sex again.

260
00:12:06,894 --> 00:12:08,312
You have to say
something to Bernie.

261
00:12:08,395 --> 00:12:10,814
I don't know. If I do that,
she's gonna confront Ruchi,

262
00:12:10,898 --> 00:12:12,649
and then Ruchi's gonna
stop sleeping with me.

263
00:12:12,733 --> 00:12:14,359
Raj, you can't go on
sleeping with a woman

264
00:12:14,443 --> 00:12:16,153
who's trying to screw
over your friend.

265
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:18,947
Can't or must?

266
00:12:22,034 --> 00:12:23,869
You know, that guidance system
was my idea.

267
00:12:23,952 --> 00:12:25,162
You figured out how to make it work.

268
00:12:25,245 --> 00:12:26,538
We didn't even need Sheldon.

269
00:12:26,830 --> 00:12:29,583
Let's not forget your idea
was based on my theory.

270
00:12:29,666 --> 00:12:32,878
Hey, we're bagging
on Sheldon here! Focus!

271
00:12:34,796 --> 00:12:37,215
I guess it was pretty smart
using our quantum technology

272
00:12:37,299 --> 00:12:39,217
as the basis for
a communication system.

273
00:12:39,468 --> 00:12:42,179
Be even better if he swapped out
the helium for xenon.

274
00:12:42,721 --> 00:12:46,016
Ooh, so instead of having to
keep it at negative 271 degrees,

275
00:12:46,099 --> 00:12:48,101
you'd only have to keep it
at negative 108.

276
00:12:48,185 --> 00:12:49,478
It would be way more efficient.

277
00:12:49,561 --> 00:12:51,605
And xenon has a bigger nucleus,

278
00:12:51,688 --> 00:12:54,274
so coherence would make it
an easier signal to see.

279
00:12:54,483 --> 00:12:55,609
You're brilliant!

280
00:12:55,692 --> 00:12:57,945
- We should tell Sheldon.
- You're an idiot!

281
00:12:59,071 --> 00:13:00,238
We don't tell Sheldon.

282
00:13:00,322 --> 00:13:01,782
We go to the military
behind his back

283
00:13:01,865 --> 00:13:03,617
and we screw him
like he screwed us.

284
00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:05,243
Yeah, yeah. All right, you're right,
you're right, we don't need him.

285
00:13:05,327 --> 00:13:06,411
We can do this all on our own.

286
00:13:06,536 --> 00:13:07,537
Do you think
you can do the math?

287
00:13:07,621 --> 00:13:08,872
No.

288
00:13:10,707 --> 00:13:11,792
But if someone else does it,

289
00:13:11,875 --> 00:13:13,919
I can double check
the crap out of it.

290
00:13:16,922 --> 00:13:19,466
I want you to know,
I did what you asked.

291
00:13:19,675 --> 00:13:22,511
I talked to Ruchi and found out
what's going on at work.

292
00:13:22,594 --> 00:13:24,471
So, is she trying
to steal my projects?

293
00:13:24,554 --> 00:13:26,223
No, not trying to,
sounds like it's a done deal.

294
00:13:26,306 --> 00:13:27,391
Here, have a brownie.

295
00:13:29,184 --> 00:13:31,770
- I'm gonna kill her.
- Okay, don't take this out on Ruchi.

296
00:13:32,145 --> 00:13:33,855
Is she trying to take your job? Yes.

297
00:13:33,939 --> 00:13:35,691
Is she parking in your space? Yes.

298
00:13:35,774 --> 00:13:37,234
Did she get a laugh
at a meeting yesterday

299
00:13:37,317 --> 00:13:39,403
by calling you "Pregnadette"?
Big one.

300
00:13:41,154 --> 00:13:44,366
But you would've done the exact
same thing and you know it.

301
00:13:44,574 --> 00:13:46,368
I never would've
undermined a coworker.

302
00:13:46,451 --> 00:13:49,371
What? Oh, please.
What about that guy Eric

303
00:13:49,454 --> 00:13:51,707
who you told it was
"Bring Your Cat to Work Day"

304
00:13:51,790 --> 00:13:54,418
when you knew
your boss had asthma?

305
00:13:55,377 --> 00:13:56,878
That was just a hilarious prank

306
00:13:56,962 --> 00:13:59,089
that ended with me
getting a corner office.

307
00:14:01,049 --> 00:14:02,175
All I'm saying is

308
00:14:02,259 --> 00:14:04,428
before you attack Ruchi,
maybe you should

309
00:14:04,511 --> 00:14:05,887
take a long hard look
in the mirror,

310
00:14:05,971 --> 00:14:07,180
because you know what you'll see,

311
00:14:07,305 --> 00:14:10,142
apart from radiant skin
and luxuriously thick hair?

312
00:14:10,225 --> 00:14:11,727
Hypocrisy!

313
00:14:17,232 --> 00:14:18,817
It is thick.

314
00:14:21,445 --> 00:14:23,447
So what do you think?
Can you make it work?

315
00:14:23,530 --> 00:14:25,657
Uh, I just need to use the cross section

316
00:14:25,741 --> 00:14:28,118
to calculate the probability
of the interaction.

317
00:14:28,660 --> 00:14:29,703
Can we help?

318
00:14:29,786 --> 00:14:31,038
Yes.

319
00:14:31,121 --> 00:14:33,373
Why don't you run
get me a can of Pringles.

320
00:14:36,084 --> 00:14:37,252
Leonard, I was...

321
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:39,337
What's Kripke doing here?

322
00:14:39,421 --> 00:14:41,715
He's just helping us
develop a better, more efficient

323
00:14:41,798 --> 00:14:44,009
neutrino comm system that we're
gonna pitch to the military,

324
00:14:44,092 --> 00:14:45,177
making yours obsolete.

325
00:14:45,260 --> 00:14:46,261
Yeah, Leonard thought of it.

326
00:14:46,344 --> 00:14:47,596
- It's genius.
- Thanks.

327
00:14:47,679 --> 00:14:49,264
You see, instead of
using liquid helium...

328
00:14:49,347 --> 00:14:51,558
- Good God, man, shut up!
- Right, sorry.

329
00:14:52,350 --> 00:14:53,727
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

330
00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:56,938
You didn't tell me we were doing this
just to stick it to Sheldon.

331
00:14:57,022 --> 00:14:59,274
- Oh, well...
- I'm messing with you.

332
00:14:59,357 --> 00:15:01,651
This sundae just got a cherry on top!

333
00:15:04,029 --> 00:15:05,906
Fine. Good luck to you.

334
00:15:05,989 --> 00:15:08,325
The military is already
interested in my system,

335
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:09,659
and my math is worked out.

336
00:15:09,743 --> 00:15:11,328
His still has a big gap in it.

337
00:15:11,953 --> 00:15:13,288
Where?

338
00:15:14,706 --> 00:15:15,832
- There.
- What?

339
00:15:19,628 --> 00:15:21,463
- Can I ask you a question?
- Hmm?

340
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,882
Does a drug still count
as an antidepressant

341
00:15:23,965 --> 00:15:27,344
if its number one side effect
is uncontrollable weeping?

342
00:15:29,012 --> 00:15:32,057
I don't know. I always feel
better after a good cry.

343
00:15:33,016 --> 00:15:36,311
I've been trying to ask Bernadette,
but she's not answering any of my texts.

344
00:15:36,561 --> 00:15:38,980
Yeah, listen, I think she might be

345
00:15:39,064 --> 00:15:40,816
a little threatened by you, you know,

346
00:15:40,899 --> 00:15:43,318
because you can tie your own
shoes and laugh without peeing.

347
00:15:44,861 --> 00:15:46,154
Did she say something to you?

348
00:15:46,238 --> 00:15:47,572
No.

349
00:15:47,656 --> 00:15:49,282
I mean, well, kind of.

350
00:15:49,366 --> 00:15:51,243
But it's okay. She's just hormonal.

351
00:15:51,326 --> 00:15:52,994
And, you know, don't worry,
I stood up for you.

352
00:15:53,745 --> 00:15:55,497
I don't need you to stand up for me.

353
00:15:55,580 --> 00:15:56,873
You're not my boyfriend.

354
00:15:57,332 --> 00:15:59,042
Look, I care about you,

355
00:15:59,126 --> 00:16:01,628
and you can say that
this doesn't mean anything,

356
00:16:01,711 --> 00:16:03,839
but the truth is we're in
a relationship, okay?

357
00:16:03,922 --> 00:16:06,591
And you're gonna have to figure
out some way to deal with it.

358
00:16:07,759 --> 00:16:10,137
I can't believe she dumped me.

359
00:16:11,346 --> 00:16:13,890
This is tough for me, 'cause I can.

360
00:16:18,854 --> 00:16:21,439
Sorry things worked out like that.

361
00:16:21,731 --> 00:16:24,526
Because I'm in pain or because
you don't have a spy anymore?

362
00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:26,528
Let's just leave it at, "I'm sorry."

363
00:16:26,611 --> 00:16:27,696
You're already sad.

364
00:16:31,491 --> 00:16:34,411
Based on Kripke's calculations,
I think this is gonna work.

365
00:16:34,494 --> 00:16:36,329
Maybe we should pitch it
to Colonel Williams today.

366
00:16:36,538 --> 00:16:38,540
Why limit ourselves
to the U.S. Military?

367
00:16:38,623 --> 00:16:41,168
I bet there's a lot of
other places we could take this.

368
00:16:41,626 --> 00:16:43,378
Without committing criminal espionage?

369
00:16:43,461 --> 00:16:45,630
You know, it's easy
to shoot an idea down, Leonard.

370
00:16:47,883 --> 00:16:50,886
Well, I suppose
congratulations are in order.

371
00:16:50,969 --> 00:16:53,889
You set out to destroy me,
and you achieved your goal.

372
00:16:53,972 --> 00:16:55,015
What are you talking about?

373
00:16:55,098 --> 00:16:58,351
The military canceled my project,
because they're going with yours.

374
00:16:58,852 --> 00:17:01,730
That's impossible.
We haven't even pitched it yet.

375
00:17:01,813 --> 00:17:03,899
Well, Colonel Williams said
another team at Caltech

376
00:17:03,982 --> 00:17:06,109
came up with a more efficient
neutrino comm system.

377
00:17:06,193 --> 00:17:07,402
Damn it!

378
00:17:09,196 --> 00:17:10,864
Excuse us.

379
00:17:11,781 --> 00:17:12,866
Kripke.

380
00:17:13,950 --> 00:17:16,161
- What's up, fellas?
- Did you screw us over?

381
00:17:16,411 --> 00:17:19,331
Ooh, I can't tell you that.
It's classified.

382
00:17:26,713 --> 00:17:28,965
Why did you tell
Barry Kripke your idea?

383
00:17:29,049 --> 00:17:30,258
This is all your fault.

384
00:17:30,342 --> 00:17:31,760
No, it's your fault.

385
00:17:31,843 --> 00:17:33,178
If you would've come to us
in the beginning,

386
00:17:33,261 --> 00:17:34,471
none of this would've happened.

387
00:17:34,554 --> 00:17:36,598
Well, if it helps,
you all behaved terribly

388
00:17:36,681 --> 00:17:38,225
and you deserve what you got.

389
00:17:38,350 --> 00:17:40,227
Well, that doesn't help at all.

390
00:17:41,436 --> 00:17:43,980
You know, sometimes your
social skills are very poor.

391
00:17:46,233 --> 00:17:49,236
I can't believe we let
Kripke use us like that.

392
00:17:49,319 --> 00:17:51,488
You know, maybe you're all
more like the guy

393
00:17:51,571 --> 00:17:53,949
who didn't invent the electric car

394
00:17:54,032 --> 00:17:57,410
and less like the guy
who didn't invent the light bulb.

395
00:18:02,082 --> 00:18:05,126
She's right. Maybe we're all
a bunch of Teslas after all.

396
00:18:06,169 --> 00:18:09,422
Didn't Tesla die penniless,
forgotten and insane?

397
00:18:09,506 --> 00:18:12,467
(SIGHS) You may have a point
about her social skills.

398
00:18:13,885 --> 00:18:15,178
He wasn't insane.

399
00:18:15,262 --> 00:18:17,055
He did fall in love with a pigeon.

400
00:18:17,222 --> 00:18:18,974
Well, if we're gonna
call Tesla crazy

401
00:18:19,057 --> 00:18:20,809
for loving something
small and unappealing,

402
00:18:20,892 --> 00:18:23,186
might as well put Penny
in a padded cell right now.

403
