1
00:00:02,837 --> 00:00:04,171
What are you doing?

2
00:00:04,212 --> 00:00:05,840
I heard you could
punch a hole in these

3
00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:07,633
and make them double-sided.

4
00:00:07,675 --> 00:00:09,259
Then it would have more storage?

5
00:00:09,301 --> 00:00:12,262
Yes, but I didn't pay
for a double-sided floppy disk.

6
00:00:12,304 --> 00:00:13,973
So?

7
00:00:14,014 --> 00:00:15,850
So it's an ethical dilemma.

8
00:00:15,891 --> 00:00:18,101
We have to take a shower
in the locker room next period,

9
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:19,895
and that's what
you're worried about?

10
00:00:19,937 --> 00:00:23,231
Actually, I have
a bathing suit under my pants.

11
00:00:25,818 --> 00:00:27,569
Whoa.

12
00:00:27,611 --> 00:00:30,656
That girl just took
a book on geostatistics.

13
00:00:30,698 --> 00:00:32,199
Yeah, so?

14
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,368
That's not required reading
for any science course.

15
00:00:34,409 --> 00:00:36,912
Maybe she wants
to squash a spider with it.

16
00:00:36,954 --> 00:00:39,331
No, look, she's reading it.

17
00:00:39,373 --> 00:00:41,959
Who is this mystery woman?

18
00:00:42,001 --> 00:00:44,252
Should we invite her
to have lunch with us?

19
00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:46,129
I don't know. So far,
it's just been you and me,

20
00:00:46,171 --> 00:00:47,589
and we know that works.

21
00:00:47,631 --> 00:00:49,717
Do we really want
to mess with success?

22
00:00:49,758 --> 00:00:52,051
We could think of it
as an experiment.

23
00:00:52,093 --> 00:00:55,764
Oh, you do know
how to push my buttons.

24
00:00:55,806 --> 00:00:57,098
All right, go ask her.

25
00:00:57,140 --> 00:00:58,726
Why me?

26
00:00:58,767 --> 00:01:01,687
Your lack of testosterone makes
you adorable to women.

27
00:01:02,688 --> 00:01:06,025
I can't argue with that.

28
00:01:08,443 --> 00:01:09,945
Hello.

29
00:01:09,987 --> 00:01:11,780
Hello.

30
00:01:11,822 --> 00:01:12,990
My name is Sheldon.

31
00:01:13,032 --> 00:01:14,867
Yeah, you're Sheldon Cooper.

32
00:01:14,909 --> 00:01:16,618
You know who I am?

33
00:01:16,660 --> 00:01:18,370
Well, there's only one
nine-year-old in high school,

34
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:19,914
and you still have
your baby teeth.

35
00:01:19,955 --> 00:01:23,124
She knows who I am.
It's going well.

36
00:01:25,044 --> 00:01:26,503
What do you want?

37
00:01:26,545 --> 00:01:29,631
Would you like to have lunch
with me and my friend?

38
00:01:29,673 --> 00:01:31,258
Why?

39
00:01:31,299 --> 00:01:32,551
Why else?

40
00:01:32,593 --> 00:01:34,135
So we can have
a spirited conversation

41
00:01:34,177 --> 00:01:35,721
about geostatistics.

42
00:01:35,763 --> 00:01:38,432
You really are
as smart as everybody says.

43
00:01:38,473 --> 00:01:42,436
My teeth are small, but my
prefrontal cortex is enormous.

44
00:01:42,477 --> 00:01:43,812
(chuckles softly)

45
00:01:43,854 --> 00:01:46,941
♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪

46
00:01:46,982 --> 00:01:49,735
♪ Yesterday I moved a mountain ♪

47
00:01:49,777 --> 00:01:52,362
♪ I bet I could be your hero ♪

48
00:01:52,404 --> 00:01:54,531
♪ I am a mighty little man ♪

49
00:01:54,573 --> 00:01:59,078
♪ I am a mighty little man. ♪

50
00:02:03,624 --> 00:02:05,417
ADULT SHELDON:
The addition of Libby brought

51
00:02:05,459 --> 00:02:07,210
a level of sophistication
to our lunchtime discussion.

52
00:02:07,252 --> 00:02:09,713
Her mom also packed
extra string cheese,

53
00:02:09,755 --> 00:02:12,173
which is a well-known
social lubricant.

54
00:02:12,215 --> 00:02:13,508
You're gonna be a geologist.

55
00:02:13,550 --> 00:02:14,760
That's fascinating.

56
00:02:14,802 --> 00:02:16,219
Why'd you choose that?

57
00:02:16,261 --> 00:02:17,930
When I was a little girl,
my grandparents took me

58
00:02:17,972 --> 00:02:20,181
to Carlsbad Caverns,
and I was hooked.

59
00:02:20,223 --> 00:02:22,810
Exploring caves,
that is super cool.

60
00:02:22,851 --> 00:02:26,354
Disagree. Dark,
enclosed spaces are terrifying.

61
00:02:26,396 --> 00:02:29,108
I get scared putting on
a sweatshirt.

62
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:30,943
Hmm.
I've seen it.

63
00:02:30,985 --> 00:02:32,694
Pretty entertaining.

64
00:02:32,736 --> 00:02:34,822
Do you know what you're going
to major in in college?

65
00:02:34,863 --> 00:02:38,199
I'm leaning towards quantum
chromodynamics, but who knows?

66
00:02:38,241 --> 00:02:41,202
A few years ago, I would've
said choo-choo trains.

67
00:02:41,244 --> 00:02:42,621
What about you?

68
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:44,957
Oh, geology for sure.
Hmm.

69
00:02:44,999 --> 00:02:46,416
Really?

70
00:02:46,458 --> 00:02:47,626
When did you decide that?

71
00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:49,962
A long time ago.
Eat your apple slices.

72
00:02:53,007 --> 00:02:55,759
So we eat in the
library every day.

73
00:02:55,801 --> 00:02:57,302
You're welcome to join us.

74
00:02:57,344 --> 00:02:58,929
It's much better
than the cafeteria.

75
00:02:58,971 --> 00:03:02,724
It's quiet, and a lot less food
gets thrown at us.

76
00:03:02,766 --> 00:03:05,226
Yeah. Maybe
I'll see y'all tomorrow.

77
00:03:05,268 --> 00:03:07,104
Right.

78
00:03:07,146 --> 00:03:09,272
Maybe y'all will.

79
00:03:09,314 --> 00:03:12,109
Bye, Libby.

80
00:03:12,151 --> 00:03:13,568
"Y'all"?

81
00:03:13,610 --> 00:03:15,112
I'm assimilating.

82
00:03:15,154 --> 00:03:17,072
Shut up.

83
00:03:17,114 --> 00:03:19,198
(Sheldon sighs)

84
00:03:20,492 --> 00:03:23,495
(insects trilling)

85
00:03:23,537 --> 00:03:25,747
So how was school today?

86
00:03:25,789 --> 00:03:27,082
Sheldon's got a girlfriend.

87
00:03:27,124 --> 00:03:29,043
What?
SHELDON:
That's not true.

88
00:03:29,084 --> 00:03:31,670
Oh, yes, it is. I seen him
talking to her at school.

89
00:03:31,712 --> 00:03:34,089
Sheldon Lee Cooper, you dog.

90
00:03:34,131 --> 00:03:35,382
Is she cute?

91
00:03:35,423 --> 00:03:37,092
Compared to what?

92
00:03:38,218 --> 00:03:39,553
What grade is she in?

93
00:03:39,594 --> 00:03:40,804
Eleventh.

94
00:03:40,846 --> 00:03:42,890
An older woman. Nice.

95
00:03:42,931 --> 00:03:45,142
Most everybody's older than me.

96
00:03:45,184 --> 00:03:46,560
Why is that nice?

97
00:03:46,601 --> 00:03:48,478
(chuckles)
So what do you think, George?

98
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,190
Is it time to have
"the talk" with him?

99
00:03:51,231 --> 00:03:52,482
What talk?

100
00:03:52,524 --> 00:03:54,275
No talk. Nobody's talking.

101
00:03:54,317 --> 00:03:57,029
If "the talk" is in regards
to human reproduction,

102
00:03:57,071 --> 00:03:59,364
I already understand
how that works.

103
00:03:59,406 --> 00:04:00,824
How do you know that?

104
00:04:00,866 --> 00:04:02,242
I told him.

105
00:04:02,283 --> 00:04:03,618
(Meemaw chuckles)

106
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:05,620
Oh, Lord.

107
00:04:06,454 --> 00:04:08,123
(laughs)

108
00:04:08,165 --> 00:04:10,084
ADULT SHELDON: And so,
our little social circle

109
00:04:10,125 --> 00:04:12,878
grew from two to three.

110
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,380
An early example of how people
are just drawn to me.

111
00:04:15,422 --> 00:04:18,133
Are you saying
that without geology,

112
00:04:18,175 --> 00:04:20,719
there'd be
no theory of evolution?

113
00:04:20,761 --> 00:04:22,512
Charles Lyell taught
Charles Darwin

114
00:04:22,554 --> 00:04:24,556
the Earth was much, much older
than anyone thought,

115
00:04:24,598 --> 00:04:26,767
which gave Darwin the courage
to figure out

116
00:04:26,808 --> 00:04:29,103
all species evolved
over billions of years.

117
00:04:29,144 --> 00:04:30,812
That's good.
I can use that

118
00:04:30,854 --> 00:04:34,233
to humiliate my pastor
at Sunday school.

119
00:04:34,274 --> 00:04:36,026
I don't know
what's more beautiful,

120
00:04:36,068 --> 00:04:37,778
your mind or your eyes.

121
00:04:37,819 --> 00:04:38,987
Tam, please.

122
00:04:39,029 --> 00:04:40,655
We're eating.

123
00:04:50,958 --> 00:04:53,752
You know spying
on kids is creepy.

124
00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:56,546
I wasn't spying on kids,
I was s-spying on your brother.

125
00:04:56,588 --> 00:04:58,632
Why won't you just go inside?

126
00:04:58,673 --> 00:05:01,509
Well, then, it wouldn't
be spying, now would it?

127
00:05:01,551 --> 00:05:04,096
Oh.

128
00:05:04,138 --> 00:05:05,639
Oh, what?

129
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,474
You didn't mention
she was black.

130
00:05:07,515 --> 00:05:09,350
Was I supposed to?

131
00:05:09,392 --> 00:05:11,145
No, 'course not.

132
00:05:11,186 --> 00:05:13,105
Then why bring it up?

133
00:05:13,147 --> 00:05:15,607
It just wasn't
what I was expecting.

134
00:05:15,649 --> 00:05:16,900
What were you expecting?

135
00:05:16,942 --> 00:05:18,193
It's a big school.

136
00:05:18,235 --> 00:05:20,028
Why are you right here?

137
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:22,489
They've got some books in there
about Martin Luther King.

138
00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:24,741
Maybe you should go read one.

139
00:05:24,783 --> 00:05:26,910
(school bell ringing)

140
00:05:28,954 --> 00:05:31,665
Morning.

141
00:05:31,706 --> 00:05:34,542
So why did it take
people so long

142
00:05:34,584 --> 00:05:36,544
to believe in continental drift,

143
00:05:36,586 --> 00:05:38,839
when it's obvious
that Africa and South America

144
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,591
-fit together like a puzzle?
-No, they don't.

145
00:05:41,633 --> 00:05:43,218
People didn't understand
continental drift

146
00:05:43,260 --> 00:05:45,887
because they didn't understand
seafloor spreading.

147
00:05:47,055 --> 00:05:48,182
What?

148
00:05:48,223 --> 00:05:49,432
I'm both threatened

149
00:05:49,474 --> 00:05:51,768
and delighted by your brain.

150
00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:53,728
I'm just delighted by it.

151
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:56,273
They do fit.

152
00:05:56,315 --> 00:05:58,399
That's nuts.

153
00:06:04,614 --> 00:06:06,407
"Geologists lead
a sedimentary lifestyle."

154
00:06:06,449 --> 00:06:08,576
Libby, that is a good one.

155
00:06:08,618 --> 00:06:11,955
Can you believe
what's going on with him?

156
00:06:11,997 --> 00:06:13,915
(laughing):
I know.

157
00:06:13,957 --> 00:06:15,583
He's been on the phone with
that girl for almost an hour.

158
00:06:15,625 --> 00:06:17,376
Sheldon's got
a girlfriend.

159
00:06:17,418 --> 00:06:18,586
What are the odds?

160
00:06:18,628 --> 00:06:20,379
She's not a girlfriend,

161
00:06:20,421 --> 00:06:23,050
it's more of a mental rapport.

162
00:06:23,091 --> 00:06:25,302
That's where it starts.

163
00:06:25,344 --> 00:06:27,637
I did win you over
with my superior intellect.

164
00:06:27,679 --> 00:06:29,597
It was your motorcycle
and you know it.

165
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:31,975
Good thing it wasn't
your masculine physique,

166
00:06:32,017 --> 00:06:33,643
because that is long gone.

167
00:06:33,685 --> 00:06:34,978
(chuckling)

168
00:06:35,020 --> 00:06:37,564
Why do you think
I kept the motorcycle?

169
00:06:37,605 --> 00:06:40,234
How come he gets to tie up
the phone and I can't?

170
00:06:40,275 --> 00:06:42,819
Because what is happening
in there is called a miracle,

171
00:06:42,861 --> 00:06:45,280
and God-fearing people do not
get in the way of those.

172
00:06:45,322 --> 00:06:46,781
GEORGE SR.:
Hey, Georgie,

173
00:06:46,823 --> 00:06:48,367
if you ever find a girlfriend,

174
00:06:48,407 --> 00:06:50,077
maybe you can go on a double
date with your brother.

175
00:06:50,118 --> 00:06:52,120
She's not his girlfriend.

176
00:06:52,162 --> 00:06:53,705
And I can find one...

177
00:06:53,747 --> 00:06:55,040
I'm just not looking.

178
00:06:55,082 --> 00:06:56,833
SHELDON:
Yes, that was a geology joke.

179
00:06:56,875 --> 00:06:59,502
We gotta get that Sports
Illustrated swimsuit issue

180
00:06:59,544 --> 00:07:02,089
away from him before he's
ruined forever. (chuckles)

181
00:07:02,130 --> 00:07:04,423
SHELDON:
Oh, Libby, Libby, Libby.

182
00:07:04,465 --> 00:07:06,425
What is happening?

183
00:07:06,467 --> 00:07:08,095
ADULT SHELDON:
What was happening was,

184
00:07:08,136 --> 00:07:09,763
like many men before me,

185
00:07:09,804 --> 00:07:13,225
I was being seduced
by the exotic world of geology.

193
00:07:30,284 --> 00:07:32,327
We searched for tektites
in a nearby ravine.

194
00:07:32,369 --> 00:07:33,787
Tektites are natural glass

195
00:07:33,828 --> 00:07:36,373
formed
during meteorite impacts.

196
00:07:36,415 --> 00:07:38,375
They also bear
a close resemblance

197
00:07:38,417 --> 00:07:41,169
to raccoon feces,
so I wisely adopted

198
00:07:41,211 --> 00:07:44,381
a "no touching tektites"
policy.

199
00:07:44,423 --> 00:07:46,216

00:07:46,258 --> 00:07:48,593

201
00:07:48,635 --> 00:07:49,803
It's called perfect cleavage

202
00:07:49,844 --> 00:07:51,430
when gypsum separates
this cleanly.

203
00:07:51,471 --> 00:07:53,390
I was so proud of Tam

204
00:07:53,432 --> 00:07:55,892
for not making
an immature cleavage joke.

205
00:07:55,934 --> 00:07:58,103
Look at me,
I'm touching cleavage.

206
00:07:58,145 --> 00:08:00,272
Until he made one.

207
00:08:00,314 --> 00:08:03,024
And, like
Mother Nature's piñata,

208
00:08:03,066 --> 00:08:06,987
geodes contained
a secret surprise inside.

209
00:08:07,028 --> 00:08:08,488
But you didn't have to suffer

210
00:08:08,529 --> 00:08:11,366
through a birthday party
to enjoy it.

211
00:08:11,408 --> 00:08:13,493
(footsteps approaching)

212
00:08:15,036 --> 00:08:16,579
How's it going?

213
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:18,457
Well, I think I figured out
the problem.

214
00:08:18,498 --> 00:08:19,749
What is it?
(metal clatters)

215
00:08:19,791 --> 00:08:22,377
I'm a terrible mechanic.

216
00:08:22,419 --> 00:08:23,962
What's up?
Well,

217
00:08:24,004 --> 00:08:26,047
Sheldon's been spending
quite a bit of time

218
00:08:26,089 --> 00:08:27,674
with this Libby girl, lately.

219
00:08:27,715 --> 00:08:28,842
Yeah, so?

220
00:08:28,883 --> 00:08:30,469
So isn't he a little young

221
00:08:30,510 --> 00:08:31,970
to be hanging with teenagers?

222
00:08:32,012 --> 00:08:34,014
Oh, he's only young
on the outside.

223
00:08:34,055 --> 00:08:35,849
Inside, he's an old man.

224
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:37,100
I'm being serious.

225
00:08:37,142 --> 00:08:38,852
So am I.

226
00:08:38,893 --> 00:08:41,396
And with that bowtie,
he's old on the outside, too.

227
00:08:41,438 --> 00:08:44,358
Sorry I bothered.

228
00:08:44,399 --> 00:08:46,818
Hang on.

229
00:08:48,278 --> 00:08:49,529
What did you think
was gonna happen

230
00:08:49,570 --> 00:08:50,822
when we sent him to high school?

231
00:08:50,864 --> 00:08:53,283
I don't know,
that he'd learn stuff,

232
00:08:53,325 --> 00:08:57,287
and then, come back home
and be my baby forever.

233
00:08:57,329 --> 00:08:58,872
Mare, it's good for him.

234
00:08:58,913 --> 00:09:01,416
He may start college in a couple
years, what happens then?

235
00:09:01,458 --> 00:09:05,379
Off the top of my head,
he and I share a dorm room.

236
00:09:05,420 --> 00:09:09,883
You know I'd laugh at that
if I didn't kind of believe you.

237
00:09:18,475 --> 00:09:20,227
What are you doing?

238
00:09:20,268 --> 00:09:24,272
I need to use the bathroom, but
it can get uncivilized in there.

239
00:09:24,314 --> 00:09:25,732
Anyone in there now?

240
00:09:25,773 --> 00:09:28,776
I don't know.
I was afraid to find out.

241
00:09:28,818 --> 00:09:31,363
Anybody in here?

242
00:09:32,406 --> 00:09:33,614
Go ahead.

243
00:09:33,656 --> 00:09:34,741
I'll stand guard.

244
00:09:34,782 --> 00:09:38,036
Where have you been all my life?

245
00:09:43,708 --> 00:09:45,752
I don't think so.

246
00:09:45,793 --> 00:09:47,337
I gotta pee.

247
00:09:47,379 --> 00:09:50,715
That's your problem.
Keep moving.

248
00:09:55,803 --> 00:09:57,847
Thank you.
Happy to help.

249
00:09:57,889 --> 00:10:00,058
Is there any chance
you'd be available

250
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:02,018
to stand guard at 1:45?

251
00:10:02,060 --> 00:10:03,770
You have a bathroom schedule?

252
00:10:03,811 --> 00:10:05,272
You don't?

253
00:10:05,313 --> 00:10:07,232
See you later.

254
00:10:07,274 --> 00:10:09,859
ADULT SHELDON: Whoever said the
quickest way to a man's heart

255
00:10:09,901 --> 00:10:11,361
is through his stomach

256
00:10:11,403 --> 00:10:14,364
did not consider
his tiny bladder.

257
00:10:15,907 --> 00:10:19,202
I think the best space shuttle
name so far is Discovery.

258
00:10:19,244 --> 00:10:20,370
What about Challenger?

259
00:10:20,412 --> 00:10:22,830
Too in-your-face.
Atlantis?

260
00:10:22,872 --> 00:10:25,041
A fictional island
that couldn't stay afloat?

261
00:10:25,083 --> 00:10:26,293
I don't think so.

262
00:10:26,334 --> 00:10:28,503
There's the Enterprise.
There is,

263
00:10:28,545 --> 00:10:30,464
and it's on Star Trek,
where it belongs.

264
00:10:30,505 --> 00:10:31,881
LIBBY: You know they're playing
a space shuttle movie

265
00:10:31,923 --> 00:10:33,508
at the Museum of
Natural Science.

266
00:10:33,550 --> 00:10:35,635
It's in IMAX.
I heard about that.

267
00:10:35,676 --> 00:10:38,263
The screen is supposed
to be huge.
They also have

268
00:10:38,305 --> 00:10:39,639
a great geology exhibit.

269
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:41,516
Well, it's in Houston--

270
00:10:41,558 --> 00:10:43,642
how are we gonna get there?
I'll drive.

271
00:10:43,684 --> 00:10:45,728
Oh, I would love to
see a movie with you.

272
00:10:45,770 --> 00:10:47,564
Don't you need to ask
your parents first?

273
00:10:47,606 --> 00:10:50,358
No, Sheldon, I don't.
But won't they worry
where you are?

274
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:51,651
They'll be fine.

275
00:10:51,692 --> 00:10:53,278
Count me in.

276
00:10:54,237 --> 00:10:56,364
Glad you're not my son.

277
00:10:57,574 --> 00:10:59,451
(slurping)

278
00:10:59,493 --> 00:11:02,661
And now he wants to see a
movie in Houston with them.

279
00:11:02,703 --> 00:11:04,289
Why Houston?

280
00:11:04,331 --> 00:11:06,791
I don't know,
it's in MixMax or something.

281
00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:08,502
So you're saying I got
to drive to Houston?

282
00:11:08,543 --> 00:11:10,504
No. This girl Libby's
gonna drive.

283
00:11:10,545 --> 00:11:12,130
Great.

284
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:13,548
It's not great, George.

285
00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:15,674
I don't want my little boy
in some car

286
00:11:15,716 --> 00:11:17,135
with a teenager
behind the wheel.

287
00:11:17,177 --> 00:11:19,220
All high school kids drive.

288
00:11:19,262 --> 00:11:21,222
Yeah? Well, I
don't like it.

289
00:11:21,264 --> 00:11:22,516
Would you let me
get in a car

290
00:11:22,557 --> 00:11:24,434
with a stranger
when I was young?

291
00:11:24,476 --> 00:11:26,894
Well, nobody ever asked you out,
so it didn't really matter.

292
00:11:26,936 --> 00:11:28,229
(chuckles)

293
00:11:30,565 --> 00:11:32,691
(train whistle blows)

294
00:11:35,862 --> 00:11:37,656
Hey. I want to talk to you.

295
00:11:37,696 --> 00:11:40,367
Hold on. Let me bring
this into the station

296
00:11:40,408 --> 00:11:43,119
so as not to disappoint
my commuters.

297
00:11:43,161 --> 00:11:45,622
They'd like to get home
to their families.

298
00:11:46,331 --> 00:11:48,416
(train whistle blows)

299
00:11:48,458 --> 00:11:51,836
I gave it a lot of thought,
and I'm afraid I can't allow you

300
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,421
to drive to Houston
with your friends.

301
00:11:53,463 --> 00:11:54,964
Why?

302
00:11:55,006 --> 00:11:56,299
Well, honey, you're
still a little boy.

303
00:11:56,341 --> 00:11:58,009
I don't think it's right.

304
00:11:58,051 --> 00:12:00,761
I'm not a little boy.
I'm a high school student.

305
00:12:00,803 --> 00:12:02,597
I'm sorry, I made up my mind.

306
00:12:02,639 --> 00:12:04,641
If you'd really like
to see this movie,

307
00:12:04,683 --> 00:12:05,892
I'm willing to drive you.

308
00:12:05,933 --> 00:12:07,310
Maybe we could meet
your friends there.

309
00:12:07,352 --> 00:12:09,812
I don't want my
mommy to take me.

310
00:12:09,854 --> 00:12:12,815
Well, then, you're not going.

311
00:12:12,857 --> 00:12:15,860
ADULT SHELDON:
Anger is an ugly emotion.

312
00:12:15,902 --> 00:12:17,987
Unbridled rage even more so.

00:12:18,029 --> 00:12:20,615

You can go to Houston
with your friends,

351
00:13:49,412 --> 00:13:50,871
That's very reasonable.

352
00:13:50,913 --> 00:13:52,206
Thank you.

353
00:13:52,248 --> 00:13:54,125
You're welcome.

354
00:13:54,167 --> 00:13:56,419
Now, can you please reach
the dryer sheets?

355
00:13:56,461 --> 00:13:59,589

of being stubborn and willful,

00:14:04,135 --> 00:14:07,138
but sometimes
it works like gangbusters.

359
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:09,932
(doorbell rings)

360
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:11,267
Please come in.

361
00:14:11,309 --> 00:14:12,851
Have a seat.

362
00:14:12,893 --> 00:14:14,604
You have a
beautiful home.

363
00:14:14,646 --> 00:14:16,564
Thank you.
Thank you.

364
00:14:18,149 --> 00:14:20,568
I hope you'll forgive me,
I just wanted to meet

365
00:14:20,610 --> 00:14:23,029
the person driving
my nine-year-old son to Houston.

366
00:14:23,070 --> 00:14:24,322
I understand.

367
00:14:24,364 --> 00:14:25,532
Me, too.

368
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:26,949
I wasn't talking to you, Tam.

369
00:14:28,409 --> 00:14:30,203
And I just wanted
to make certain

370
00:14:30,244 --> 00:14:31,871
that you've had
no traffic tickets

371
00:14:31,912 --> 00:14:33,581
or, heaven forbid, accidents.

372
00:14:33,623 --> 00:14:35,667
No, ma'am. I'm a
very safe driver.

373
00:14:35,709 --> 00:14:38,336
You've got nothing
to worry about.
Good.

374
00:14:38,378 --> 00:14:40,839
Good. Have you made
this trip before?

375
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,090
A few times, yes.
Mm-hmm.

376
00:14:43,132 --> 00:14:45,760
Mm-hmm.
You smoke marijuana?

377
00:14:45,802 --> 00:14:47,887
Mom!
No, ma'am.

378
00:14:47,928 --> 00:14:49,096
Just say no.

379
00:14:51,391 --> 00:14:53,560
(sighs):
Well...

380
00:14:53,601 --> 00:14:55,687
I find this very reassuring.

381
00:14:55,729 --> 00:14:56,937
I have to admit,

382
00:14:56,979 --> 00:14:58,648
I had some trepidation, but...

383
00:14:58,690 --> 00:15:01,901
having met you,
I'm feeling a lot better.

384
00:15:01,942 --> 00:15:04,779
Good. You've got nothing
to worry about, Mrs. Cooper.

385
00:15:04,821 --> 00:15:06,698
I've been babysitting kids
for years.

LIBBY (echoing):
Babysitting... babysitting...

00:15:09,743 --> 00:15:11,994
(deep, distorted):
Babysitting.

388
00:15:12,036 --> 00:15:15,122
Babysitting... babysitting...
I've been babysitting
kids for years.

389
00:15:15,164 --> 00:15:17,458
Excuse me.

390
00:15:18,334 --> 00:15:19,586
I don't feel well.

391
00:15:19,627 --> 00:15:21,045
They'll have to go without me.

392
00:15:21,087 --> 00:15:23,256

394
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,636
(crying quietly)

395
00:15:28,678 --> 00:15:30,513
MARY:
Shelly,

396
00:15:30,555 --> 00:15:31,598
you okay?

397
00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,350
No.

398
00:15:34,392 --> 00:15:35,976
You want to talk about it?

399
00:15:36,018 --> 00:15:37,854
No.

400
00:15:37,896 --> 00:15:40,231
You want me to leave you alone?

401
00:15:40,273 --> 00:15:42,483
No.

402
00:15:46,905 --> 00:15:48,948
I thought Libby and I
were equals,

403
00:15:48,989 --> 00:15:50,909
but she thinks of me as a child.

404
00:15:50,949 --> 00:15:52,911
I'm sorry, baby.

405
00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:55,705
Calling me that
isn't helping right now.

406
00:15:55,747 --> 00:15:57,457
Right. Sorry.

407
00:15:57,498 --> 00:15:59,918
She is almost twice your age.

408
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,044
There are people
five times my age

409
00:16:02,086 --> 00:16:03,922
that are stupider than me.

410
00:16:03,963 --> 00:16:05,757
This is not about being smart.

411
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:08,008
What else is there?
Well...

412
00:16:08,050 --> 00:16:10,428
there's other kinds of maturity.

413
00:16:10,470 --> 00:16:11,805
What's up?

414
00:16:11,846 --> 00:16:13,765
None of your business.

415
00:16:13,807 --> 00:16:15,266
Why is he crying?

416
00:16:15,308 --> 00:16:16,684
Again, it's none
of your business.

417
00:16:16,726 --> 00:16:18,144
Please go.

418
00:16:18,185 --> 00:16:22,315
Fine. Celeste and I know
when we aren't wanted.

419
00:16:23,524 --> 00:16:25,192
Where were we?

420
00:16:25,234 --> 00:16:26,945
Different kinds of maturity.

421
00:16:26,986 --> 00:16:28,571
That's right.

422
00:16:28,613 --> 00:16:30,030
(sighs)

423
00:16:30,072 --> 00:16:33,117
There's emotional maturity,
physical maturity,

424
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:35,620
all things that have nothing
to do with being smart.

425
00:16:35,662 --> 00:16:38,539
Are you suggesting
I'm not emotionally mature?

426
00:16:38,581 --> 00:16:41,083
I was hinting at it.

427
00:16:41,125 --> 00:16:44,545
Regardless, I'm not interested
in making any more friends.

428
00:16:44,587 --> 00:16:47,340
Oh, I don't think
that's how you really feel.

429
00:16:47,381 --> 00:16:48,842
It is.

430
00:16:48,883 --> 00:16:51,886
From now on,
it's a hermit's life for me.

431
00:16:51,928 --> 00:16:54,722
I bet, when you grow up,
you will be surrounded

432
00:16:54,764 --> 00:16:59,686
by lots of smart,
wonderful friends.

433
00:16:59,727 --> 00:17:01,938
I can't see that happening.

434
00:17:01,980 --> 00:17:03,189
Well,

435
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:05,692
the Lord works
in mysterious ways.

436
00:17:05,733 --> 00:17:09,028
And here we go
with the God talk.

437
00:17:09,069 --> 00:17:10,864
(exhales)

438
00:17:14,659 --> 00:17:15,994
Hey.

439
00:17:16,034 --> 00:17:17,161
Hey.

440
00:17:17,203 --> 00:17:19,455
How was the IMAX movie?

441
00:17:19,497 --> 00:17:21,624
Well...

442
00:17:21,666 --> 00:17:24,251
MAN:
Okay, status. Find them?

443
00:17:24,293 --> 00:17:26,462
Go.
Guidance...

444
00:17:28,923 --> 00:17:30,508
What are you doing?

445
00:17:30,550 --> 00:17:33,386
(whispers): What do
you think I'm doing?

446
00:17:33,427 --> 00:17:36,096
Move your arm
before I rip it off.

447
00:17:37,932 --> 00:17:39,726
It got a little uncomfortable.

448
00:17:39,767 --> 00:17:41,352
Why is that?

449
00:17:41,394 --> 00:17:43,354
Libby's got feelings for me,

450
00:17:43,396 --> 00:17:45,606
but I think it's better
we just stay friends.

451
00:17:45,648 --> 00:17:48,735
(sighs) I've been giving
geology some more thought.

452
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:50,361
Yeah, and?

453
00:17:50,403 --> 00:17:52,697
I've decided
it's not really a science.

454
00:17:52,739 --> 00:17:55,616
It's not?
No, it's more like a hobby.

455
00:17:55,658 --> 00:17:56,951
Rock collecting.

456
00:17:56,993 --> 00:17:58,661
Childish, really.

457
00:17:58,703 --> 00:18:00,038
I can see that.

458
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:01,998
ADULT SHELDON:
As you can see,

459
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,834
sometimes a person can be
both incredibly intelligent

460
00:18:04,876 --> 00:18:07,211
and full of baloney.
