The Big Bang Theory 2x20

The Hofstadter Isotope

Season 2, Episode 20

* Raj: So what are we gonna do tonight?
   Howard: If I may offer a suggestion in bars, all across this great nation our Thursday night is Ladies' Night. Which means as the evening progresses we will get better looking after 99 cent margaritas and two-for-one jello shot.


* Leonard: Come on Howard, the odds of us picking up girls at bar is practically zero...
   Howard: Ok, really, are you familiar the Drake equation?
   Sheldon: The one that estimates the odds making contact with the extraterrestrials by calculating the product of increasing restricted series of fractional value such as external planet and the planet likely to develop life?
   Howard: Yeah, yeah, that one.


* Howard: I am a horny engineer, Leonard. I never joke about math or sex.

* Sheldon: Did you just shut the TV off in the middle of the classic Deep Space Nine-Star Trek: The Original Series-Trouble With Tribbles crossover episode?
   Leonard: Apparently so.
   Sheldon: Are you ill?
   Leonard: No.
   Sheldon: All right. Then is it fair to say that you're experiencing some sort of emotional turmoil over the events involving Penny earlier this evening?
   Leonard: When did you pick up on that?
   Sheldon: A moment ago, when you turned off the TV off in the middle of the classic Deep Space Nine-Star Trek: The Original Series-Trouble With Tribbles crossover episode. Would you like some advice?
   Leonard: Sure, why not?
   Sheldon: Well then, this is the perfect time to launch a blog with an interactive comments section.


* Leonard: Should we talk to some of these women?
   Howard: No. It's way too early in the night for that. See, first we let the lawyers and the jocks thin the herd, and then... We go after the weak and the old and the lame.
   Leonard: That's your system?
   Howard: That's my system. Oh, and if you spot a chick with a seeing eye dog, she's mine.


* Penny: Do you want to maybe come in for some coffee or something?
   Stuart: Oh, gee, it's a little late for coffee, isn't it?
   Penny: Oh, you think "coffee," means coffee. This is so sweet... Come on. I think I have decaf.
   Stuart: Oh, good.
   Sheldon: Stuart. I thought I heard your voice. Do you have a moment?
   Stuart: Uh, yeah, I guess.
   Penny: Sheldon, we're a little busy here, so...
   Sheldon: What are you doing?
   Stuart: We're having coffee.
   Sheldon: Well, isn't it a little late for coffee?
   Stuart: It's okay. She thinks she has decaf.


* Stuart: Oh, Sheldon, I'm afraid you couldn't be more wrong.
   Sheldon: More wrong? Wrong is an absolute state and not subject to gradation.
   Stuart: Of course it is. It's a little wrong to say a tomato is a vegetable. It's very wrong to say it's a suspension bridge.
