A new episode of The Big Bang Theory aired, and of course, it was funny. Specially since it includes Comic Con, and the guys dressing up as Star Trek: The Next Generation. Your know there´s going to be a ton of laugh in there, right?
In this episode, while the guys take a Continue reading
Another great episode of The Big Bang Theory aired last night, called The Habitation Configuration, in which Wolowitz struggles with moving out of his mother’s house. Meanwhile, Sheldon is caught in the middle of an argument between Amy and Wil Wheaton. And speaking of Will Wheaton, I very much enjoyed seeing his shirt (as the picture in this article illustrates) in which he show his webisode series alongside the uber genial Felicia Day “The Guild”.

You know when those guys have a dispute over something they, unlike normal dudes, go to an upgraded version of the old classical Rock, Paper, Scissors and go with their version, created by Internet Pioneer Sam Cass: Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock.
Still on the biggest hectic week, Fall premieres week.

It´s a hectic week, but we knew that before… now it´s time to work. We already covered the big sitcoms premieres in other articles such as: quotes and spoilers from How I Met Your Mother season seven premiere, and HIMYM The Naked Truth episode, and Two and a Half Men premiere with Ashton Kutcher, Modern Family season three premiere, and now another Doubleheader, from the likes of CBS and The Big Bang Theory season five premiere.
In an episode called The Skank Reflex Analysis, in which the gang deals with the fallout from Penny and Raj’s night together. Amy counsels Penny when she considers moving back to Nebraska due to her failing acting career. Sheldon takes charge of the paintball team.
Sheldon: Penny´s brain teaser this morning.
She and Koothrapali emerged from your bedroom, she is disheveled, and Raj is only dressed in a sheet. The sole clue: “It´s not what it looks like”.
Leonard: Let it go Sheldon.
Sheldon: If I could I would, but I can´t so I shan´t
Sheldon: Let´s put on our thinking cap, shall we?
Sheldon: Penny could have been inspecting Raj´s anal region for parasites. Oh boy, that´s a true good friend
Leonard: They slept together, Sherlock
Sheldon: Leonard, Is it awkward for you that one of your dear friends had sex with the woman you used to love in the very same place you lay your head?
Leonard: No, I´m fine with it
Sheldon: That sounds like sarcasm, but I´ll disregard it because I have an agenda: Paintball!
Raj: Penny and I are in love
Leonard and Howard: What?
Sheldon: I´ll be a Captain. If it´s good enough for Kirk, Crunch and Kangaroo, it´s good enough for me
Raj: The God Kama Deva has shot us with his flowery arrows of love.
Howard: Who?
Raj: He is the Hindu version of Cupid, but way better because he rides a giant parrot
Sheldon: For the record, I have genitalia. They are functional and esthetically pleasing
Penny: Wine glasses should have handles
Amy: Keeping accurate track of your alcohol in-take. Smart idea, considering how trampy you get when you´ve had a few
Penny: You heard what I did?
Amy: Well, I heard who you did
Penny: I feel like two different people: Dr Jeckyll and Mrs Whore
Amy: She engaged in interspecies hanky panky and people still call her great. I´m sure your reputation can survive you shagging a little indian boy
Raj: You were nice to me, I thought you maybe liked me
Bernardette: I´M NICE TO EVERYONE!
Raj: Do you think I have a shot with Penny?
Bernardette: OF COURSE YOU DO! YOU ARE A CUTIE PIE! ANY GIRL WOULD BE LUCKY TO HAVE YOU! (Slamms the door)
Beverly Hofstadter: Buck up, SissyPants
Beverly Hofstadter: If you need any more help from me, my books are available on Amazon.com
Amy: I could so see you being the face of hemorroids
Penny: I know!
Raj: You can´t ruin friendship with sex. That´s like trying to ruin ice cream with chocolate sprinkles.
Raj: As your friend, you might like to know that we didn´t have sex in the conventional sense
Penny: Oh God, did you pull some weird indian crap on me?
Penny: So we didn´t actually
Raj: I did, it was beautiful
Howard: Maybe he was writing a clumsy penis metaphor about my fiancee
Raj: Screw you. That was a beautiful written penis metaphor
Sheldon: Geology isn´t a real science
Sheldon: If there´s ever a Church of Sheldon. It´s the time to start it
Penny: Hey, watcha doin´ Quickdraw?
Penny: It´s time for me to move back to Nebraska
And the Penny´s hemorroid´s commercial video was epic! Probably on YouTube soon.

And the guys (and gal) from The Big Bang Theory are back. That´s always good news for TV.
In this new episode, called The Herb Garden Germination Sheldon and Amy secretly experiment on the gang by spreading rumors. Howard and Bernadette’s relationship reaches an important milestone.
Sheldon: Really Amy, Gossip? I´m dissapointed in you
Sheldon: You’ve dedicated your life´s work to educating the general populace about complex scientific ideas. Have you ever considered trying to do something useful? Perhaps reading to the elderly? But not your books; something they might enjoy…I kid of course. Big fan.
Sheldon: It´s odd how the activity brings back the K.Mart smell of Bourbon
Leonard: Perfect
Sheldon: I know… what an Elf I would´ve made!
Sheldon: The people of Nintendo can only go so far in helping us recreate an actual athletic experience. We have to do our part too
Sheldon: She was attempting to engage me in gossip… I think her long exposure to Penny has turned her into a bit of a gabby gurdy
Priya: He´s been writing poems… They’re very disturbing. “Oh Bernadette, please play my clarinet.”
Leonard: Do you think a sexually ambivalent Indian astrophysicist with selective mutism and alcohol issues is better than a 100-pound Jewish guy who lives with his Mom?
Penny: Oh my God, Raj likes Bernardette?
Penny: Priya told you… what a gossip!
Raj´s Dad: “He’s Jewish; those chaps are very successful. And they don’t drink a lot.”
Raj: Now what´s up with clarinet… Bernardette?
Howard: Her freakishly small hands make anything look big. It’s one of the reasons I love her
Raj: India is a goofy place
Sheldon: “Everyone was sent a-twitter. Strangely, no one Tweeted.”
Sheldon: Sheldon Cooper is a smelly pooper
Amy: That´s gold
Sheldon: Look at you, getting me to engage in the social sciences. You’re a vixen, Amy Farrah Fowler.
Penny: That gossipy bitch! No offense.
Raj: None taken. You should hear how she talks about you.
Penny: Sheldon and Amy had sex
Raj: Shut your ass!
Raj: I can’t believe ol’ Smelly Pooper finally got laid!
Sheldon: Excuse me, I have work to do
Leonard: Yeah you do, you dog!
Sheldon: I must say, Amy, pretending to have sexual intercourse with you has given me great satisfaction.
Amy: Slow down, Sheldon. I’m not quite there yet.
Amy: Bernardette has just asked me about my sexual encounter with you. The meme has just reached full penetration
Sheldon: Pun intended?
Amy: No. Happy accident
Amy: I described your love making as aloof but effective
Sheldon: You shouldn’t have done that. That’ll make me a chick magnet!
Amy: I wonder what changed her mind.
Sheldon: Perhaps your talk of my sexual prowess renewed her faith in love.
Amy: (mulls it over) As good of an explanation as any.
Leonard: Wow! You are pregnant?
Amy: Does that text say anything about orthotics?

Ok, we were having some serious Big Bang Theory withdrawal symptoms… luckily, the show came back with a new original episode called The Zarnecki Incursion, in which The gang goes all out to help Sheldon find the person responsible for hacking his online gaming account.
Sheldon: They got my enchanted weapons, my vicious gladiator armor, my wand of untainted power, and all my gold!
Leonard: (ticked off) You called the police because someone hacked your World of Warcraft account?
Sheldon: What choice did I have? The mighty Sheldor, Level 85 Blood Elf, Hero of the Eastern Kingdom, has been picked clean like a carcass in the desert sun! Plus, the FBI hung up on me!
Leonard: Oh, Not Glenn!
Sheldon: Yes, Glenn, the only bird I ever loved
Officer: Mister Cooper
Sheldon: Doctor Cooper
Officer: Seriously?
Leonard: Yes… not the kind with access to drugs
Officer: I´m sorry for your loss but the police department of Pasadena has no jurisdiction in Pandora
Sheldon: That´s from Avatar. World of Warcraft takes place in Azeroth. Good Lord gracious how are you allowed to carry a gun?
Sheldon: Could you at least refer me to a rogue police?
Raj: Bad news, the NIgerian Prince may be a fraud
Penny: I was helping Sheldon. He was robbed of a bunch of imaginary crap that’s useful in a make-believe place.
Priya: I don’t know what that means.
Penny: Sadly, I do.
Penny: Last week Priya took Leonard rollerblading on the beach. Can you believe that?
Bernardette: I feel like I have to say “That Bitch!” but I don´t have enough information
Penny: Do you want some coffee liquor on your ice cream
Amy: Oh, The alcohol and drug peer pressure mother warned me about. I was starting to think that would never happen… yes please
Amy: Primates, such as ourselves, have a natural instinct to ostracize ill-mannered members of the troupe. Bernadette’s urge to shun, scowl, or fling her waste at Priya is hardwired into our DNA.
Bernardette: I don’t have an urge to fling my waste!
Amy: It’s there, we all have it. Hit me with some more booze and I’ll show you.
Sheldon: People think I don´t get sarcasm
Sheldon: I never said these words before, but good job Howard
Sheldon: Ask yourself this: in the course of our lives, how much money has been taken from us? How many kites? How many Scooby-Doo Trapper Keepers? The bullies took them from us. Tonight, we take back our dignity, our birthright, and our pride! Who’s with me?!?
Leonard: I don´t know if I can ditch Priya two nights in a row
Raj: Oh come on! Bros before… my sister
Todd: Who is it?
Sheldon: Your doom
Raj: Don´t say “your Doom” Who answers the door to the doom?
Sheldon: Good point. Basket Puppies
Raj: Legoland seems like a hollow dream now
Howard: This one’s funny, Leonard. Why couldn’t you make it work?
Penny: I´m gonna show you how we finish a quest in Nebraska
Penny: Amy’s right. I do want to fling my poop at her.

Last week we listed the must watches for the week. This week we are doing the same.
Let´s see what are the must watch shows for Week of March 28 through April 2
In the season opener, “Who Do You Trust,” summer vacation is over and everyone is back at school and dealing with relationships that are becoming increasingly complicated. Amy has decided she would like to take her relationship to the next level with Ricky. Ricky, meanwhile, returns to his apartment after an anxious day at the clinic to find his birth mom out of prison and looking for a place to stay. And Adrian and Ben are excited and anxious to find out if they’re having a boy or a girl. Beverley Mitchell (“7th Heaven”) guest stars as the new guidance counselor, Katelyn O’Malley, and one of her first visits is from Ashley, who decides she wants to be home schooled.
Before a three week hiatus until next original episode of Castle, we get to see te episode named Law & Murder, where during the high-profile trial of a murdered socialite, a juror suddenly tumbles out of the jury box — dead! When Castle & Beckett learn the juror was poisoned, their investigation soon uncovers that this seemingly innocent juror may not have been so innocent after all.
After all I named Stana Katic second in my Top TV leading ladies ranking, how can I not recommend this episode!
Nurse Jackie is back this monday, that makes a must watch moment. Jackie’s marriage is strained, as is her relationship with O’Hara after the intervention; Akalitus warns the staff that nearby hospitals have closed down, straining the staff and resources; Zoey publicly confesses her affair with Lenny.
Also, Edie Falco is fifth in our Top 20 Leading ladies ranking.
Showtime will definitely be on tonight. In the start of a new season, Tara wants to earn her college degree; Kate tries to plan the next phase of her life.
Another one of our Top Ten leading ladies is Julianna Margulies. This week on The Good Wife the firm sues a convicted murderer who is making money from a song he wrote about his crime.
This one is not on anyone´s must watch list, I´m sure, but the show is gaining each week on me and in this episode, when Roman becomes Alice’s assistant, he surpasses her expectations; Alonzo makes a confession.
It will be interesting to see a capable Roman.
In this week the finalists will sing songs from Elton John, and I get another shot at proving my theory about Twitter predicting American Idol results.
A round-table discussion on the state of college sports in America. Winner of 21 Sports Emmys in 15 years, HBO’s real sports with Bryant Gumbel departs from its traditional format to present a special hour-long edition dedicated to the state of college sports in America. Presented three days before the men’s NCAA Final Four tip off in Houston, the show will present an entertaining and substantive dialogue on the current state of big-time athletics in college sports, addressing hot-button issues and offering practical solutions to current problems.
I also did a special coverage and sneak peeks of Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.
The Big Bang Theory is back with a new original, where the guys try to figure out who hacked Sheldon’s online-game account.
The best reality TV Show these days in terms of educational content. You watch, you learn, and also you take things for your entrepreneur self to use in your life and business. In this episode, children seek an investor for their idea; the sharks fight for a piece of a furniture business.
Breakout Kings is the best new show so far in 2011 (Ok, so Borgias and Camelot and The Killing are yet to premiere). So by this week, it´s the best new show on TV and you need to start watching it.
In this episode a woman convicted of stabbing her husband 48 times escapes on a school bus.
And by the way… the other shows I mentioned haven´t premiered yet and still have to deliver according to expectations. Breakout Kings did it and even surpassed them by a lot.
Ok, I said Breakout Kings is the best new show, right? Well here´s one coming to challenge it for that title, and it certainly has what it takes.
I had the chance to watch the premiere of Camelot and did some spoilery review. STARZ will present the original series premiere of “Camelot” on Friday, April 1st with two hour-long episodes airing back to back beginning at 10PM ET/PT; the one-hour, 10-part series will then air weekly on Fridays at 10pm et/pt. Featuring a talented ensemble cast including Joseph Fiennes reimagining the iconic role of Merlin, Jamie Campbell Bower as the young and reckless Arthur, and Eva Green in her television debut as the darkly powerful Morgan, the character-driven series also features Tamsin Egerton (Guinevere), Claire Forlani (Igraine) and Peter Mooney (Kay).
One of the other much anticipated premieres. Showtime will air the premiere of The Borgias starring Jeremy Irons. As if that was not enough Emmanuelle Chriqui to play a guest star role, a little later the show announced Colm Feore will play Cardinal Della Rovere. Joanne Whalley is cast as Vanozza Dei Cattanei in The Borgias and Holliday Grainger joins as Lucrezia Borgia and Lotte Verbeek as Guilia Farnese.
Tune in to the 2-hour premiere of THE BORGIAS on SHOWTIME, Sunday, April 3rd at 9PM ET/PT. Following the premiere, new episodes will air on Sundays at 10 PM ET/PT.
What do you think about this week´s must watch? Will you watch them? Let me know.
Also, remember to follow me on Twitter for more Must Watch TV Scoop.
Ok, For those very few out there not watching The Big Bang Theory, it´s already time to start! We just whitnessed an episode where As Sheldon becomes concerned when everybody begins to hang out at Raj’s apartment and discovers Leonard is the center of the group.
Sheldon: May I say having to explain this to you caused doubts on the authenticity of your ristorante
Sheldon: And be a social paria? You know that´s not my style
Sheldon: Oh yeah!Ity´s Harry Potter and 98% of the Sorcerer´s Stone
Amy: Don´t be needy bestie, that´s probably what scared Leonard away
Penny: If you guys were a band you´d be called Leonard and the Leonards
Sheldon: He´ll be back
Leonard: Of course I´ll be back. I live here!
Amy: Yo P-Dog
Amy: She used to be much more fun before Leonard punched her on the heart
Sheldon: When he finished he yelled Eureka!
Zack: No, I yelled Holy Moly
Sheldon to Bill Gates: maybe if you weren’t so distracted by sick children in Africa, you could have put a little more thought into Windows Vista.
Sheldon: Screw it, let’s go find me a hiney to bite.
Raj: To friends. No matter how quirky they are
LeVar Burton: I am so done with Twitter!
Recap by MurphAndTheMagicTones for IMDB.com
It’s time to order pizza from Luigi’s, although Sheldon (Jim Parsons) does wonder why they can’t speak Italian. But Leonard (Johnny Galecki) wasn’t staying for dinner, much to Sheldon’s surprise. He’s having dinner with Raj (Kunal Nayyar) and Priya. And Howard (Simon Helberg) was expected to be there as well. Sheldon is flabbergasted, as they were supposed to eat pizza from Luigi’s, although he admits Luigi sounds a lot like Jackie Chan. Sheldon refuses to go based on their Thursday tradition of pizza. Raj might be serving haggis and blood pudding, which really are the same thing. Plus, Raj’s plasma screen has a few dead pixels in the corner. And Raj’s Tex-Mex doesn’t meet with Sheldon’s approval. (SHOCKING!) And watching Hofstadter “suck the saliva out of your sister’s mouth” doesn’t add to Raj’s night. Sitting anywhere you want is like “hippies at a love-in” to Sheldon, even though Priya is trying her best to be a gracious host. But the margaritas are just a bit too much for him.
Heading to The Cheesecake Factory, Sheldon drowns his sorrows in a…water. And Sheldon demands Penny (Kaley Cuoco) absentmindedly wipe down the bar and try to coax the weary patron (him) to divulging his troubles. Of course, telling Penny that hanging out at Raj’s house for dinner was a problem didn’t sit well, even when Raj put on Reggae music and Priya took off her shoes. (“It was like the last days of Caligula.”) But Amy (Mayim Bialik) calls him (she was concerned he hadn’t gone home and checked in at The Cheesecake Factory on Facebook) and tells him to get accustomed to Leonard being the social nucleus of the group, not him. Of course, Sheldon is in full denial. And he won’t take it lying down. He sets out snacks at his apartment for the people Sheldon’s having over. Stuart, Barry Kripke, Zack, Penny’s ex-boyfriend, and LeVar Burton. (“I tweeted him.”) But now Leonard had to leave, as Sheldon’s guests were coming. Almost two minutes of awkward goodbyes later, Leonard leaves.
SHELDON: He’ll be back.
LEONARD: Of course, I’ll be back! I live here!!!
If you think the night between Zack, Stuart, and Barry would be awkward…seriously, did you really expect it to go differently? But give Sheldon credit: he did prepare goody bags. Sheldon starts with introductions. Stuart was living in the comic book store now and hoped to get a hot shower out of the deal, Barry thought there would be a whaffle (sorry, must be present to win), and Zack will think of something to say about himself.
Amy and Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) decide to ‘kidnap’ Penny and take her out dancing. Although Amy didn’t really need the pillowcase or the chloroform; she just needed to stop pestering Penny about the “sweet loving her ex is currently receiving from the jewel of Mumbai.”
Give Zack credit; he recovered with an enthralling story about getting into a hot tub naked at a ski lodge with a drunk girl. Except Sheldon wanted to know if it was a hot tub or a Jacuzzi. (“Wheally? That was your qwestion?”) As the drunk girl got in, Sheldon felt it was time for his story of how Archimedes learned about water displacement from taking a bath. After all his story had a gold crown, where Zack’s simply had wet breasts. But long story short, Zack nailed her.
SHELDON: But when he finished, he shouted Eureka!
ZACK: Nope, I shouted Holy Moly. Don’t know why. Just do.
Sheldon wants to warm up the vintage videogames, but Kripke went to get his karaoke machine, Zack made a beer run, and Stuart went to take a shower.
At Raj’s, they enjoyed chili cooked by Priya, who had a Texas roommate in England, while the guys regailed her with stories about Leonard’s Texas roommate, who was punched by Bill Gates once for telling him “maybe if you weren’t so distracted by sick children in Africa, you could have put a little more thought into Windows Vista.” They toasted a Sheldon-free evening, and they find out it’s not as fun without Sheldon telling them the Romans used to put spiced toast in their punch bowls. They admit to missing him.
The ladies are preparing to go out (once Penny gives them a place to go), and Penny picks a dress Amy feels show enough bosom to attract a new mate or a hungry infant. They want Penny to get a guy tonight.
BERNADETTE: Pick out the hottest guy in the room, take him home, do unspeakable things to him, then kick him to the curb with a smile on his face and teeth marks on his hiney?
PENNY: More or less.
AMY: What’s that like?
Penny thinks she’s OK with not being in a relationship, but Amy has some advice for stress management for people in Penny’s predicament, such as herself. One involves an electric toothbrush. And none involve Bernadette finding the snowflake from the North Pole Leonard brought home for Penny a year ago.
PENNY: Screw it, let’s go find me a hiney to bite.
AMY: And if we fail, we can always go to CVS and pick out an electric toothbrush for you. Mine’s called Gerald.
BERNADETTE: (to Penny) That’s a little creepy.
Actually, Zack and Kripke singing Don’t Go Breaking My Heat by Elton John and Kiki Dee, now THAT’S creepy!
STUART: (in only a towel) Anybody do Walking on Sunshine yet? Dibs!
Sheldon finally gives in and goes back to all his friends. His new buddies “were having fun wrong.” But the gang still welcomes him back, even though real chili doesn’t have beans in it.
As it happens, LeVar Burton did show up, only to see Stuart, Kripke, and Zack singing Walking on Sunshine.
LEVAR: I am SO done with Twitter!

Ok, For those very few out there not watching The Big Bang Theory, it´s already time to start! We just whitnessed an episode where To improve his skills as an instructor, Sheldon asks Penny to give him acting lessons.
Sheldon: Best and brightest my sweet patuties
Leonard: Sheldon changed the password, now it´s “Pennyisafreeloader” no spaces
Sheldon: I didn’t want to teach those poopy-heads anyway!
Howard: FYI, I think that’s what Darth Vader said right before he started building the Death Star.
Bernardette: He´s such a cutie
Raj: Thank you, but cutie is for bunnies; I want to be something with sex appeal, like a labradoodle
Amy: That was the last arrow in my quiver of wimsy
Howard: What are you thinking so hard?
Sheldon: Just that I´m definitely not gay
Sheldon: Hey! You taught me something… who would have thought?
Penny: Let´s take you out of your comfort zone
Sheldon: Why would we want to do that? It´s call the comfort zone for a reason
Sheldon: I´m gonna miss you Shelly-bee, even though you creep the Bejesus out of me
Penny: I think I broke your son
Recap by MurphAndTheMagicTones
Sheldon (Jim Parsons) has to teach a lecture, and he’s not thrilled, even though he thinks the students should be. And the students are letting the world know what the lecture is like, even posting pictures on Flickr. (“How do you get an entire lecture hall to flip you off at the same time?”) Oh, and KMN is text-speak for “kill me now.” Penny (Kaley Cuoco) is dying to tell Sheldon, but Leonard (Johnny Galecki) promised it to Howard (Simon Helberg). (“Picture the Hindenburg meets Chernobyl meets Three Mile Island meets Tron 2.”)
SHELDON: I didn’t want to teach those poopy-heads anyway!
HOWARD: FYI, I think that’s what Darth Vader said right before he started building the Death Star.
Despite Sheldon’s protestations about the “poopy-heads,” he was upset about the lecture. Raj (Kunal Nayyar) compared it to accidentally walking into a gay bar and having no one hit on you. (“It…happened to a friend of mine.”) Howard tells Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) that Raj really needs to get a girlfriend. And Bernadette thinks Raj is cute and should have no problem getting one. Raj didn’t want to for cute; he wanted to be more like a labradoodle. But Bernadette assures him he’s a hottie.
Sheldon videochats with Amy (Mayim Bialik), who suggests he take acting lessons because the teacher needs to take the responsibility to communicate with the students. It’s a performance art, and Sheldon knows only one person schooled in the performance arts: Penny.
PENNY: Just to be clear, you’re asking me for help because I know something that the brilliant Dr. Sheldon Cooper doesn’t?
SHELDON: Are you going to help me or not?
PENNY: Probably. I’m just enjoying the foreplay.
Of course, Sheldon thinks that teaching acting is the signal for the end of the road in one’s career. And Penny is out, until Sheldon offers to pay her $40.
Howard gets an offer to work at the Weisman Institute in Israel but will be gone for two years, and Bernadette can’t leave because of her studies. They ask Raj if he can step up to the plate and help Bernadette satisfy her sexual needs (“most regular, some of them kind of messed up”) while he’s gone. No, this is not reallity. Yes, this is a fantasy of Raj’s.
HOWARD: Whatcha thinking so hard about?
RAJ: Just that I’m definitely not gay.
Sheldon’s lesson begins, and he tries with a desperate three knock-Penny cadence. It worked. Sheldon had studied Stanislav, Stella Adler, Uda Hagen, and Henry Winkler’s Aaaay, I’m an Actor. After that, the lesson goes a bit downhill. Moving around in the space doesn’t work very well, then Sheldon can’t pick up on Penny’s improvisation about being at a shoe store, instead wanting a frozen yogurt. Penny’s idea of pretending to be two winos under a bridge works a little better…for her…with a bottle of wine. (method acting, right?)
While Leonard wonders what all of us do…why the SciFi Channel changed its name to SyFy…Raj has another fantasy about Bernadette. This time, Howard gets hit on his scooter, and Bernadette needs to be sexually satisfied, since Howard isn’t going to make it. To be fair, Raj doesn’t take Bernadette’s word for it; he makes sure he hears it from Howard.
Penny tries a scene with Sheldon, although he doesn’t think Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is going to cut it. He brought a Star Trek fanfic he wrote when he was ten, where a brilliant child genius is whisked away from the dusty plains of East Texas and brought to the 23rd Century by Mr. Spock. Penny goes in kicking and screaming, but she suggests mixing it up. She’ll play Mr. Spock, and Sheldon will play the child’s mother. After taking a long, long time to set the scene, Sheldon gets into the role of his mother. (Nice work on imitating the transporter, Penny. 
) Sheldon isn’t buying, but Penny eggs him on and stays in character as Spock. She thinks Sheldon’s mother would be sad to see him go. Then Sheldon gets in character as his mother. REALLY gets into character. And is crying…and then starts playing the role of Sheldon…and really starts crying. (“You go with the nice man; I’m late for Indian Bingo!”)
PENNY: (on phone) Hi, Mrs. Cooper. It’s Penny. I think I broke your son.
SHELDON: Mommy, I love you! Don’t let Spock take me to the future!
And Raj has one more fantasy about Bernadette. Which, if I am correct, involves Slumdog Millionaire somehow.
RAJ: (back in reality, to himself) Other than the dance number, so not gay.
