The Big Bang Theory 4x2

The Cruciferous Vegetable Amplification

Season 4, Episode 1

& Raj 2 Howard: Shu-shu-shu.
Penny: What?
Howard: He said, "If he had woman parts, he'd eat for free the rest of his life."
Penny: Yeah, but you wouldn't be able to talk to yourself.


& Howard: You're changing the Sheldonian calendar?
Sheldon: It's a small price to pay.
Penny: For what?
Leonard: No, no, don't ask!
Penny: Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
Sheldon: In order to live long enough to fuse my consciousness with cybernetics, I need to change my diet.
Penny: Wait. Cybernetics is robot stuff, right?
Sheldon: Correct.
Penny: So you want to turn yourself into some sort of robot?
Sheldon: Essentially, yes.
Penny: Okay, here's my question. Didn't you already do that?
Sheldon: No. Flattering*, but sadly, no.


& Sheldon: I'm also planning to begin an exercise regimen designed to strengthen my cardiovascular system. AKA jogging.
Penny: Wait. Honey, have you ever run before?
Sheldon: Certainly. I've run from bullies, dogs, angry chickens... and one particularly persistent P.E. teacher determined to bend me over and give me a scoliosis test.

& Sheldon: Penny! Penny! Penny!
Penny: Coming, coming. Hey, nice knees.
Sheldon: Thank you. They're my mother's.
Penny: Oh. And the Flash shirt is what? Because, what, you're gonna run really fast?
Sheldon: No, the Flash shirt is because it's Friday, but it's nice when things work out. Where's your heart rate monitor?
Penny: I don't have one.
Sheldon: What about your pedometer?
Penny: Don't have one.
Sheldon: Do you have telematics in your shoes connected to an iPod?
Penny: Uh, no.
Sheldon: What do you do, you just go out there and gambol* about like a bunny?


& Penny: So, either one of you weirdos* want to buy my underwear? Only 1,400 bucks.


& Sheldon: I don't understand why you're not enjoying this. Together, in this car, with my enhanced capabilities, we're like Knight Rider.
Leonard: Except in Knight Rider, the car isn't a yammering sphincter.
Sheldon: You mock the sphincter, but the sphincter is a class of muscle without which human beings couldn't survive. There are over 50 different sphincters in the human body. How many can you name?
Leonard: I was wrong-- this is exactly like Knight Rider.


& Sheldon: Perhaps you'd be interested in a different game.
Leonard: No!
Sheldon: This is a photograph of the 1911 Solvay Conference on the theory of radiation and quanta. Using Photoshop, I've introduced a few anachronisms. See if you can spot all 24. I'll give you the first one. Madame Curie should not be wearing a digital watch. And go.


& Sheldon: Isn't this nice? The pleasures of fellowship and camaraderie without having to tolerate your germy* breath on my skin.


& Sheldon: Excuse me, Mr. Wozniak?
Wozniak: Oh, hey. Nice virtual presence device.
Sheldon: Thank you. I just want to say I'm a big fan. You're my 15th favorite technological visionary.
Wozniak: Only 15th?
Sheldon: It's still six spots above Steve Jobs. I care neither for turtlenecks nor showmanship.
Wozniak: Yeah, I never got that turtleneck thing.
Sheldon: One of my proudest possessions is a vintage 1977 Apple Two. Despite the file system limitations of Apple DOS 3.3, it was a pretty nifty* little achievement.
Wozniak: Thanks, we were shooting for "nifty."
{ WOW. WOW. }


& Sheldon: Penny... Penny... Penny.
Penny: What up, Shel-Bot?
Sheldon: I can't get out of bed. I hurt my ankle.
Penny: What do you want me to do?
Sheldon: Sing me "Soft Kitty."
Penny: Really, you want me to sing "Soft Kitty" to a computer monitor?
Sheldon: Would you rather come over and sing it to me in person?
Penny: Soft kitty, warm kitty. Little ball of fur...
