Sheldon: Three... point four seven.

Mary: Okay, you finish up in here, get in bed, and I'll bring you some ginger ale.
Sheldon: Canada Dry?
Mary: Yes.
Sheldon: Room temperature?
Mary: Yes.
Sheldon: Mostly flat?
Mary: I'll stir the fizz out with a spoon.
Sheldon: Thanks, Mom.

Adult Sheldon: ...despite my adamant protest, I didn't go home. Instead, I had to stay and suffer in silence like the Southern gentleman my mother raised me to be.

Sheldon: I can't sleep.

Sheldon: Do you know the "Soft Kitty" song?
Nurse Robinson: No.
Sheldon: I'll teach it to you. Get a notepad.
