The Big Bang Theory 4x3

The Zazzy Substitution*

Season 4, Episode 3

& Amy: Is he always like this when he loses?
    Sheldon: Oh, yes. You should've been here for the great Jenga tantrum* of 2008.
    Leonard: You bumped the table and you know it.
    Amy: Perhaps it would be kinder to play a game more suited to his abilities. We'll close our eyes and count to ten while you hide.
    Leonard: I'm going to my room.
    Amy: Very good, Leonard. But next time, don't tell us where you're hiding.


& Leonard: Did you guys see the paper in The American Physics Journal on supersolids? It's pretty interesting. This guy's working from a hypothesis where...
    Raj: Spoiler alert! Spoiler alert.
    Leonard: What?
    Raj: Don't ruin it for me, man. I printed out a PDF to read on the potty*.


& Sheldon: Sorry we're late.
    Amy: I must take responsibility. I had to stop for feminine hygiene supplies.
    Leonard: Aha. Okay.
    Sheldon: I believe she's experiencing her menses.
    Amy: Actually, I'm not. In order to avoid surprises, I wear them all the time.
    Leonard: Aha. Okay.


& Penny: Hey, look, it's Shamy!
    Amy: Shamy?
    Sheldon: A juvenile amalgamation of our names. Sheldon, Amy... Shamy.
    Amy: Oh. I don't like that. Don't do that.
    Penny: All righty. What's new?
    Amy: Well, just recently, I learned that you refer to us as Shamy, and I don't like that.
    Penny: I got it. But what I was going for was, you know, how's your life?
    Amy: Like everybody else's. Subject to entropy, decay and eventual death. Thank you for asking.


& Leonard: So, this is nice. First time we've all gotten together to eat.
    Amy 2 Sheldon: You're right, he's a festival of humdrum chitchat*.
    Leonard: Okay, that's all I got. Howard, you're up.


& Amy: I'm curious as to why we're not eating alone.
    Sheldon: They can't function without me. I'm the social glue that holds this little group together. ... You're welcome.


& Leonard: Listen, can I talk to you about your girlfriend?
    Sheldon: She's not my girlfriend. She's a girl and she's my friend, but there's no touching or unsanitary exchange of saliva*. Although, for the record, on one occasion, she licked her thumb to remove raspberry jelly from the corner of my mouth. It's an action we both regret to this day.


& Sheldon: I know what your point is. You're intimidated* by Amy's intellect. To that I say, buck up*.
    Leonard: Okay, let me just get right to it. Amy is judgmental*, sanctimonious* and frankly... just obnoxious*.
    Sheldon: So?
    Leonard: So we already have you for all that.


& Raj: Penny, dear, why don't you shoot another silver bullet my way?
    Penny: Get one yourself.
    Raj: Ooh, somebody's been taking bitchy pills.
    Penny: God, he's an ass when he drinks.
    Howard: Oh, he's an ass when he doesn't. You just don't hear it.


& Howard: Gimme. Trust me. I do this for my mom all the time. See? With the grain.
    Penny: Wow, that is better.
    Howard: And someday, when you have varicose veins, I'll show you how to massage them.


& Sheldon: I brought Amy here to show her some of the work I'm doing.
    Amy: It's very impressive, for theoretical work.
    Sheldon: Do I detect a hint of condescension*?
    Amy: I'm sorry, was I being too subtle*? I meant compared to the real-world applications of neurobiology, theoretical physics is... what's the word I'm looking for?.. hmm, cute.
    Sheldon: ...


& Sheldon: We appear to have reached an impasse*.
    Amy: I agree.
    Sheldon: I move our relationship terminate immediately.
    Amy: Seconded.
    Sheldon: There being no objections... ...the motion carries. Good day, Amy Farrah Fowler.
    Amy: Good day, Sheldon Cooper.
    Howard: Women, huh? Can't live with them, can't successfully refute their hypotheses.
    Sheldon: Amen to that.


& Leonard: Okay, fine. Live with cats. Be like my Aunt Nancy. She had dozens of them. And do you know what happened after she died? They ate her.
    Sheldon: You don't have to sell me on cats, Leonard. I'm already a fan.


& Leonard: Hi, Mrs. Cooper. Thanks for coming.
    Sheldon's Mom: Now, when you said on the phone he broke up with a girl, you meant an actual girl, not something you kids whipped up in a lab?
    Leonard: No, she's real.
    Sheldon's Mom: Did they sin?
    Leonard: No, no, it's not like that. It's, uh... I don't know what it's like.


& Sheldon: Mom, what an unexpected pleasure.
    Mom: My, my, that's a powerful smell.
    Sheldon: I'd like you to meet Oppenheimer, Frisch, Panofsky, Feynman, Weisskopf...
    Mom: Yeah, I get it. You got a lot of cats and you gave 'em cute Jewish names.


& Mom: Sheldon, sit down. Let's talk.
    Sheldon: All right, but you're not fooling me. Whenever you say we have to talk, it means you want me to listen.
    Mom: Then stop talking.


& Leonard: I saw what you did there.
    Sheldon's Mom: He thinks he's such a smarty pants. He's no different from any man. You tell 'em not to do something, that's all they want to do. If I hadn't told my brother Stumpy* not to clear out the wood chipper by hand, we'd still be calling him Edward. Now, don't you move. I'll bring over all the food.
    Leonard: No, no, no, I can do it.
    Sheldon's Mom: Well, isn't that sweet?


& Sheldon: Thank you, Amy. Here's your cat. And here's your $20. Next! Thank you, Amy. Here's your cat. And here's your $20. Next!
