1
00:00:01,627 --> 00:00:05,464
"That everyone who believes
may have eternal life in him.

2
00:00:05,506 --> 00:00:11,219
For God so loved the world that
he gave his one and only son."

3
00:00:11,261 --> 00:00:13,012
(whispers):
Here we go.

4
00:00:13,054 --> 00:00:15,516
(sighs) Yes, Sheldon?

5
00:00:15,557 --> 00:00:17,893
When you said God gave
his son to the world,

6
00:00:17,935 --> 00:00:19,854
did you mean Earth
or the universe?

7
00:00:19,895 --> 00:00:22,105
Earth.

8
00:00:22,147 --> 00:00:23,732
But if God created the universe,

9
00:00:23,774 --> 00:00:25,526
wouldn't he want
to save all of it?

10
00:00:25,567 --> 00:00:27,653
Yes, uh, he would.

11
00:00:27,695 --> 00:00:28,904
Then why did you say Earth?

12
00:00:28,946 --> 00:00:32,533
"Earth" is a synonym
for the universe.

13
00:00:32,574 --> 00:00:35,285
(quietly): He's
grabbing at straws now.

14
00:00:35,327 --> 00:00:37,412
So if God's plan is
to save all of the universe,

15
00:00:37,454 --> 00:00:40,123
that means a race of
octopus aliens light-years away

16
00:00:40,165 --> 00:00:43,210
could only be saved by Jesus?
Sure.

17
00:00:43,251 --> 00:00:45,963
Even though they never
would've heard of him?
Yes.

18
00:00:46,005 --> 00:00:48,298
Even though his appearance
might be terrifying to them?

19
00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:50,258
W-Why would his appearance
be terrifying?

20
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:51,844
He has four limbs
and they have eight.

21
00:00:51,886 --> 00:00:53,888
Okay, that's enough.
JEFF: No, no.

22
00:00:53,929 --> 00:00:56,015
I prayed people would be
more interested in my sermons.

23
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:58,266
I suppose I should've been
more specific.

24
00:00:58,308 --> 00:01:00,519
Sheldon, if
these creatures

25
00:01:00,561 --> 00:01:04,314
were born without sin, they
don't need to be saved by Jesus.

26
00:01:04,356 --> 00:01:07,943
What if an octopus Adam and Eve
brought sin to their world?

27
00:01:07,985 --> 00:01:11,613
Would they be saved by a human
Jesus or an octopus Jesus?

28
00:01:11,655 --> 00:01:13,490
(sighs)

29
00:01:13,532 --> 00:01:15,701
(laughs)

30
00:01:15,743 --> 00:01:18,704
♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪

31
00:01:18,746 --> 00:01:21,498
♪ Yesterday I moved a mountain ♪

32
00:01:21,540 --> 00:01:24,125
♪ I bet I could be your hero ♪

33
00:01:24,167 --> 00:01:26,378
♪ I am a mighty little man ♪

34
00:01:26,420 --> 00:01:30,883
♪ I am a mighty little man. ♪

35
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:36,095
And then I said octopus aliens
didn't need to become Christian

36
00:01:36,137 --> 00:01:38,390
because they're not affected
by original sin.

37
00:01:38,432 --> 00:01:41,936
You should've been there; Pastor
Jeff almost started crying.

38
00:01:41,977 --> 00:01:43,562
Oh, now I'm sorry
I missed it.

39
00:01:43,604 --> 00:01:45,689
That's your fault
for having a hangover.

40
00:01:45,731 --> 00:01:47,608
Or it's God's fault for
putting Sunday morning

41
00:01:47,649 --> 00:01:49,276
after Saturday night.

42
00:01:49,317 --> 00:01:51,862
(phone ringing)

43
00:01:51,904 --> 00:01:53,989
Meemaw, could you take me
to Radio Shack?
MARY: Hello?

44
00:01:54,031 --> 00:01:55,365
Sure, maybe later.

45
00:01:55,407 --> 00:01:56,533
Later's a little vague.

46
00:01:56,575 --> 00:01:58,077
Could you please
be more specific?

47
00:01:58,118 --> 00:02:00,495
When I'm good and ready.
How's that?

48
00:02:00,537 --> 00:02:03,373
Better, but I'd really
like to nail this down.

49
00:02:03,415 --> 00:02:05,960
Why don't you ask
your father to take you?

50
00:02:06,001 --> 00:02:08,545
Dad?
What?

51
00:02:08,587 --> 00:02:10,338
Can you please
take me to Radio Shack?

52
00:02:10,380 --> 00:02:12,007
I'm busy.
Ask your meemaw.

53
00:02:12,049 --> 00:02:13,801
I did.
She said to ask you.

54
00:02:13,842 --> 00:02:15,094
Well, ask her again.

55
00:02:15,135 --> 00:02:17,345
Seems counterintuitive,
but all right.

56
00:02:17,387 --> 00:02:18,639
Meemaw?

57
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,015
Oh, Lord.

58
00:02:20,057 --> 00:02:21,642
Everything okay?

59
00:02:21,683 --> 00:02:24,478
No.

60
00:02:24,519 --> 00:02:27,314
Stephanie Hanson's daughter was
in a car accident last night.

61
00:02:27,355 --> 00:02:28,398
She died.

62
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,317
Oh, no.

63
00:02:30,358 --> 00:02:32,444
My God.

64
00:02:32,486 --> 00:02:34,822
She was barely 16.

65
00:02:34,863 --> 00:02:36,657
GEORGE SR.:
That's horrible.

66
00:02:36,698 --> 00:02:39,159
Is there anything we can do?

67
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,786
I don't know.

68
00:02:40,828 --> 00:02:42,203
Um... ugh.

69
00:02:42,245 --> 00:02:44,123
I need to call
folks at the church.

70
00:02:44,164 --> 00:02:46,541
(Mary sighs)

71
00:02:46,583 --> 00:02:49,252
Any more thoughts
on Radio Shack?

72
00:02:49,294 --> 00:02:51,964
Sheldon, do you
really think

73
00:02:52,006 --> 00:02:55,300
this is the appropriate
time to ask that question?

74
00:02:55,342 --> 00:02:58,553
I did, but now
I'm second-guessing myself.

75
00:03:07,729 --> 00:03:09,690
How you holding up?

76
00:03:09,731 --> 00:03:12,400
I'm okay.

77
00:03:12,442 --> 00:03:14,028
(clears throat)

78
00:03:14,069 --> 00:03:17,948
16 years old.

79
00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:19,908
It's just awful.

80
00:03:19,950 --> 00:03:23,495
It's all part of God's plan.

81
00:03:30,418 --> 00:03:32,295
(TV playing quietly)

82
00:03:32,337 --> 00:03:35,256
How come we don't get
to go to the funeral?

83
00:03:35,298 --> 00:03:38,301
Why would you want
to go to a funeral?

84
00:03:38,343 --> 00:03:40,303
I've never been to one.

85
00:03:40,345 --> 00:03:42,263
When you get to be my age,
you get to go to plenty.

86
00:03:42,305 --> 00:03:44,474
That's, like,
a hundred years from now.

87
00:03:44,516 --> 00:03:47,519
You make it hard to love you.

88
00:03:47,561 --> 00:03:50,064
Do you really see a dead body?

89
00:03:50,105 --> 00:03:51,523
Sometimes.

90
00:03:51,565 --> 00:03:53,274
How close do
you get to it?

91
00:03:53,316 --> 00:03:56,111
Real close, if you want.

92
00:03:56,153 --> 00:03:57,529
And the clothes they're wearing,

93
00:03:57,571 --> 00:03:59,698
is that the clothes
they become a ghost in?

94
00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:01,324
Depends. In the movie Ghost,

95
00:04:01,366 --> 00:04:04,078
Patrick Swayze has on
the outfit that he dies in.

96
00:04:04,119 --> 00:04:06,496
Casper runs around butt naked.

97
00:04:06,538 --> 00:04:08,373
Maybe he died naked.

98
00:04:08,415 --> 00:04:11,418
That's fun to think about.

99
00:04:11,459 --> 00:04:14,462
And y'all wonder why
you're not at the funeral.

100
00:04:20,135 --> 00:04:21,887
Good morning, Peg.

101
00:04:21,929 --> 00:04:25,974
Well, it will be once this cup
of Sanka works its magic.

102
00:04:26,016 --> 00:04:27,226
Is Pastor available?

103
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:29,394
Oh, he's on the phone
with his wife.

104
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:30,896
Oh, should I come back?
Nah.

105
00:04:30,938 --> 00:04:33,565
He usually gets his groveling
done pretty quick.

106
00:04:35,442 --> 00:04:40,321
So... that little Hanson girl,
that was horrible, huh?

107
00:04:40,363 --> 00:04:42,323
Yeah.

108
00:04:42,365 --> 00:04:45,535
Reminds you that...

109
00:04:45,577 --> 00:04:47,204
life is precious.

110
00:04:47,246 --> 00:04:49,456
(coughing loudly)

111
00:04:53,085 --> 00:04:55,087
You're up, slugger.

112
00:04:55,129 --> 00:04:56,797
(coughing continues)

113
00:04:56,838 --> 00:04:59,925
JEFF: Come in.
(whoops)

114
00:04:59,967 --> 00:05:03,595
I have the clothing drive flyers
if you'd like to take a look.

115
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:05,388
Thank you.

116
00:05:06,974 --> 00:05:08,558
You all right, Mare?

117
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,227
(sighs)

118
00:05:14,231 --> 00:05:15,857
No, not really.

119
00:05:15,899 --> 00:05:20,320
Um... I can't stop thinking
about that little girl.

120
00:05:20,361 --> 00:05:22,823
I understand.

121
00:05:22,864 --> 00:05:24,908
That's why it's important
in these times

122
00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:27,119
to take comfort in our faith.

123
00:05:29,955 --> 00:05:32,791
What if that's
not doing the trick?

124
00:05:32,833 --> 00:05:36,128
Events like this can
certainly create doubt.

125
00:05:36,170 --> 00:05:39,006
It happens to me more often
than I'd like to admit.

126
00:05:39,047 --> 00:05:42,259
What do you do?

127
00:05:42,301 --> 00:05:48,182
I roll up my sleeves and I work
even harder at serving our Lord.

128
00:05:48,223 --> 00:05:51,018
Mary, we each have
a relationship with God,

129
00:05:51,059 --> 00:05:52,769
and relationships
take work.

130
00:05:52,811 --> 00:05:53,979
Get out there.

131
00:05:54,021 --> 00:05:56,940
Help the needy,
start a Bible study,

132
00:05:56,982 --> 00:06:00,359
hug a stranger and tell 'em
the Lord loves 'em. (chuckles)

133
00:06:00,401 --> 00:06:04,489
But not a child;
that backfires on you, big-time.

134
00:06:04,531 --> 00:06:07,201
Thank you, Pastor Jeff.

135
00:06:07,242 --> 00:06:08,952
You are most welcome.

136
00:06:09,953 --> 00:06:11,830
Oh, and tell Sheldon

137
00:06:11,872 --> 00:06:14,041
I spoke to
my seminary professor,

138
00:06:14,082 --> 00:06:15,750
and the official ruling is:

139
00:06:15,792 --> 00:06:18,712
God would appear to the octopus
aliens in octopus alien form

140
00:06:18,753 --> 00:06:20,672
and save their
eight-legged souls.

141
00:06:20,714 --> 00:06:22,049
Praise Jesus!

142
00:06:22,090 --> 00:06:25,510
(chuckles)

143
00:06:25,552 --> 00:06:27,095
(Peg coughing)

144
00:06:27,137 --> 00:06:28,222
(door closes)

145
00:06:28,263 --> 00:06:30,849
I should put that in a sermon.

146
00:06:36,021 --> 00:06:38,273
Hold on, hold on.
Thank you, God,

147
00:06:38,315 --> 00:06:40,399
for this food we are about to
receive and for the nourishment

148
00:06:40,441 --> 00:06:43,820
of our bodies, and bless the
hands that prepared it. Amen.

149
00:06:43,862 --> 00:06:47,032
We're doing this
at breakfast now?

150
00:06:47,074 --> 00:06:48,407
Yes, I think it's a nice idea.

151
00:06:48,449 --> 00:06:50,035
She's eating Count Chocula.

152
00:06:50,077 --> 00:06:52,037
Doesn't he play
for the other side?

153
00:06:52,079 --> 00:06:54,873
I'm so glad God blessed you
with a sense of humor, George.

154
00:06:57,084 --> 00:06:59,627
Mom, have you received any
distressing phone calls today?

155
00:06:59,669 --> 00:07:00,921
No. Why?

156
00:07:00,962 --> 00:07:02,381
Just wondering if
it's an appropriate time

157
00:07:02,421 --> 00:07:04,465
to ask if you could take me
to Radio Shack.

158
00:07:04,507 --> 00:07:06,927
Sorry, sweetheart,
I can't today.

159
00:07:06,968 --> 00:07:09,012
I have to bring this food
over to the Hanson family.

160
00:07:09,054 --> 00:07:10,555
Then I have my new prayer group.

161
00:07:10,597 --> 00:07:12,182
And after that,
I'm gonna get started

162
00:07:12,224 --> 00:07:14,351
on a faith garden
in the backyard.

163
00:07:14,393 --> 00:07:16,436
A faith garden?
What the hell is that?

164
00:07:16,477 --> 00:07:18,355
Language.

165
00:07:18,397 --> 00:07:20,357
It's an outdoorsy place
for me to speak to God.

166
00:07:20,399 --> 00:07:23,110
Don't you already
speak to him indoorsy?

167
00:07:23,151 --> 00:07:24,569
Yes, but in the backyard,

168
00:07:24,611 --> 00:07:26,654
I can enjoy the beautiful world
he gave us.

169
00:07:26,696 --> 00:07:29,490
You can also smell the
Sparks' chicken coop.

170
00:07:29,532 --> 00:07:31,118
Well, I think it sounds nice.

171
00:07:31,159 --> 00:07:32,786
Thank you. I'm gonna
need your truck

172
00:07:32,827 --> 00:07:34,871
to get all the dirt and
flowers and tools that I need.

173
00:07:34,913 --> 00:07:36,915
Sure.
Oh, oh, almost forgot.

174
00:07:36,957 --> 00:07:39,376
Can you keep an eye out
for a rock big enough

175
00:07:39,418 --> 00:07:41,086
to paint a Psalm on?

176
00:07:41,128 --> 00:07:42,670
I can do that.

177
00:07:42,712 --> 00:07:43,671
Wish me luck!

178
00:07:43,713 --> 00:07:44,839
Luck!

179
00:07:44,881 --> 00:07:47,550
Mm-hmm! (chuckles)

180
00:07:47,592 --> 00:07:49,010
Is Mom okay?

181
00:07:49,052 --> 00:07:50,553
How the heck should I know?

182
00:07:50,595 --> 00:07:52,931
She left. You can say "hell."

183
00:07:59,187 --> 00:08:01,356
MARY: ...our hearts
and stir us to action.

184
00:08:01,398 --> 00:08:02,983
ADULT SHELDON:
If my mother's faith was

185
00:08:03,024 --> 00:08:05,277
the Starship Enterprise,
over the next week,

186
00:08:05,319 --> 00:08:07,321
she achieved warp factor 9.

187
00:08:07,362 --> 00:08:08,780
I can't hear you!

188
00:08:08,822 --> 00:08:10,324
GROUP:
Amen!

189
00:08:10,365 --> 00:08:11,950
Let 'em hear ya in heaven!

190
00:08:11,992 --> 00:08:13,827
Amen!
Heck yeah! Amen!

191
00:08:13,868 --> 00:08:15,162
(laughter)

192
00:08:15,203 --> 00:08:18,039
Despite his concerns
over her sanity,

193
00:08:18,081 --> 00:08:20,834
my dad found a rock
worthy of her faith garden.

194
00:08:20,875 --> 00:08:21,793
Ooh, right over there.

195
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:23,878
(grunts) Here?
Mm-hmm.

196
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:25,213
Gently!

197
00:08:25,255 --> 00:08:28,216
(panting):
Honey, it's a rock.

198
00:08:28,258 --> 00:08:29,550

Georgie, you've heard us
talking to Sheldon

227
00:10:02,018 --> 00:10:04,771
about asking questions at
inappropriate times, right?

228
00:10:04,812 --> 00:10:06,231
Yeah, so?

229
00:10:06,273 --> 00:10:07,857
So, given what's
happened this week,

230
00:10:07,899 --> 00:10:09,317
do you think
it's an appropriate time

231
00:10:09,359 --> 00:10:10,485
to be talking about driving?

232
00:10:10,527 --> 00:10:13,530
Why? 'Cause that girl died?

233
00:10:13,572 --> 00:10:16,491
(sighs)
Yes, that.

234
00:10:16,533 --> 00:10:19,035
For your information,
I'd be an excellent driver.

235
00:10:19,077 --> 00:10:22,205
(chuckles): I wouldn't trust you
to push a shopping cart.

236
00:10:22,247 --> 00:10:24,082
Would you feel more
confident if I told you

237
00:10:24,124 --> 00:10:25,750
I already know
how to drive?

238
00:10:25,792 --> 00:10:28,503
Video games don't count.
I'll have you know

239
00:10:28,545 --> 00:10:30,255
I've driven Meemaw's car.

240
00:10:30,297 --> 00:10:33,592
I also drove your truck one
night while you were sleeping.

241
00:10:34,593 --> 00:10:36,303
Are you crazy?!

242
00:10:36,344 --> 00:10:38,888
I parked it and everything,
you had no idea.

243
00:10:40,848 --> 00:10:42,601
Okay, let...

244
00:10:42,641 --> 00:10:44,311
let me get this straight--

245
00:10:44,352 --> 00:10:46,687
you're trying to prove to me
that you're a responsible person

246
00:10:46,729 --> 00:10:48,815
by admitting you stole my truck.

247
00:10:48,856 --> 00:10:52,611
I said I was responsible,
never said I was smart.

248
00:10:54,446 --> 00:10:56,364
(knocking at door)

249
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,241
Hey.

250
00:10:58,283 --> 00:11:00,076
Let's go out.

251
00:11:00,118 --> 00:11:02,537
Go out where?
I don't know,

252
00:11:02,579 --> 00:11:06,124
Dairy Queen, shooting range,
line dancing?

253
00:11:06,166 --> 00:11:08,335
Have you been drinking?

254
00:11:08,376 --> 00:11:11,712
I might've had a wine cooler
or two. (laughs)

255
00:11:11,754 --> 00:11:14,382

257
00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:26,603
The bartender
asked to see my I.D.

258
00:11:26,645 --> 00:11:28,438
Honey, he does that to get tips.

259
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,898
He asked me for mine, too.

260
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:33,818
Well, I like to think we're both
young attractive ladies.

261
00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:35,694

266
00:11:44,538 --> 00:11:46,289
Are we gonna shoot pool
or not?

267
00:11:46,331 --> 00:11:47,832
You bet.

268
00:11:51,002 --> 00:11:52,379
Hmm!

269
00:11:52,420 --> 00:11:54,297
Did you know George and I
used to come here

270
00:11:54,339 --> 00:11:55,714
when we first started dating?

271
00:11:55,756 --> 00:11:57,133
Is that so?

272
00:11:57,175 --> 00:11:58,801
He kissed me right over there
in that booth.

273
00:11:58,843 --> 00:12:01,680
Why, was there some
barbecue sauce on your face?

274
00:12:02,639 --> 00:12:03,764
It's a fat joke.

275
00:12:03,806 --> 00:12:06,725
I got it, Mom.
(pool balls scatter)

276
00:12:06,767 --> 00:12:10,063
Come on.
Come on.

277
00:12:11,398 --> 00:12:12,649
Why are you putting us to bed?

278
00:12:12,691 --> 00:12:14,859
'Cause your mother's out.
Where is she?

279
00:12:14,901 --> 00:12:15,985
She's with your
grandmother.

280
00:12:16,027 --> 00:12:17,487
Where'd they go?
I don't know.

281
00:12:17,529 --> 00:12:19,906
Why don't you know?
Because I'm here with you!

282
00:12:19,947 --> 00:12:22,534
(clears throat)

283
00:12:22,576 --> 00:12:24,244
Good night. Sweet dreams.

284
00:12:24,285 --> 00:12:25,870
Mom gives us kisses.

285
00:12:29,499 --> 00:12:31,000
Fine.

286
00:12:33,794 --> 00:12:35,922
Mm, your beard is scratchy.

287
00:12:35,963 --> 00:12:37,090
Too bad. Sheldon?

288
00:12:37,131 --> 00:12:38,799
I respectfully pass.

289
00:12:40,385 --> 00:12:42,554
Mom also does
the good night dance.

290
00:12:44,639 --> 00:12:47,434
Now you're just screwing
with me.

291
00:12:47,475 --> 00:12:50,103
Night.

292
00:12:50,144 --> 00:12:53,106
You should've gone with
"sings us a lullaby."

293
00:12:53,147 --> 00:12:55,567
Yeah, I got cocky.

294
00:12:55,609 --> 00:12:59,404
Slow down there, sister,
you got church in the morning.

295
00:12:59,446 --> 00:13:01,197
Who says I'm going?

296
00:13:01,239 --> 00:13:04,743
What is happening with you?

297
00:13:04,783 --> 00:13:07,954
Do you really want to know?

298
00:13:12,751 --> 00:13:17,088
So, the other day
I was making a casserole

299
00:13:17,130 --> 00:13:19,132
to bring over to the Hansons,

300
00:13:19,173 --> 00:13:21,968
and I wanted to include
a sympathy card.

301
00:13:22,009 --> 00:13:25,846
So I started to write,

302
00:13:25,888 --> 00:13:28,933
"Your daughter's
in a better place."

303
00:13:30,769 --> 00:13:33,772
(voice breaking):
And I had to stop.

304
00:13:39,736 --> 00:13:44,407
Because how could that
possibly be true?

305
00:13:44,449 --> 00:13:46,701
How could a better place
be anywhere

306
00:13:46,743 --> 00:13:50,288
than at home safe
with her family?

307
00:13:51,706 --> 00:13:53,874
She was just a little kid.

308
00:13:53,916 --> 00:13:56,461
That could've...

309
00:13:56,503 --> 00:13:59,631
been Georgie behind the wheel.

310
00:14:05,094 --> 00:14:09,390
How could that possibly
be God's plan?

311
00:14:11,351 --> 00:14:14,395
Looks like you could use
a shoulder to cry on.

312
00:14:14,437 --> 00:14:16,063
(sighs)

313
00:14:16,105 --> 00:14:19,108
No, she does not need
a shoulder to cry on,

314
00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:22,153
but I do need a place to
store my pool stick.

315
00:14:22,195 --> 00:14:24,989
Maybe I'd like that.
(laughs)

316
00:14:25,031 --> 00:14:27,492
Get.

317
00:14:29,703 --> 00:14:31,954
(knocking at door)

318
00:14:34,081 --> 00:14:35,333
What the hell?

319
00:14:35,375 --> 00:14:38,085
Your problem now.

320
00:14:38,127 --> 00:14:39,671
Ooh.
Watch it.

321
00:14:39,713 --> 00:14:40,880
Here.
(clears throat)

322
00:14:40,921 --> 00:14:42,089
What am I supposed to do
with her?

323
00:14:42,131 --> 00:14:43,882
I don't know.
But be careful.

324
00:14:43,924 --> 00:14:45,134
Last time she was this drunk,

325
00:14:45,176 --> 00:14:46,720
you ended up with
your first son.

326
00:14:47,928 --> 00:14:49,222
Night.

327
00:14:49,263 --> 00:14:52,350
He's not that fat, Mom!

328
00:14:59,357 --> 00:15:01,693
Now you're cooking breakfast
for us?

329
00:15:01,735 --> 00:15:03,027
Your mom's not
feeling well.

330
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:04,779
Is she contagious?
No.

331
00:15:04,821 --> 00:15:06,113
Just tired.

332
00:15:06,155 --> 00:15:08,241
Did you check her for ticks?

333
00:15:08,282 --> 00:15:10,159
Soon as she wakes up.

334
00:15:10,201 --> 00:15:11,661
You can check her
while she's asleep.

335
00:15:11,703 --> 00:15:12,787
Sit down!

336
00:15:16,123 --> 00:15:17,751
Do you even know how to cook?

337
00:15:17,792 --> 00:15:21,087
Believe it or not, I am capable
of making breakfast.

338
00:15:21,128 --> 00:15:23,840
Sorry. It's not like we see you
do much around here.

339
00:15:23,882 --> 00:15:26,133
How 'bout,
"Thanks for cooking, Dad"?

340
00:15:26,175 --> 00:15:29,637
Chocolate chips?
Thanks for cooking, Dad.

341
00:15:30,889 --> 00:15:32,599
Is Mom going to church?

342
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,642
I don't think she's up to it.

343
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:37,437
But she never misses church.

344
00:15:42,734 --> 00:15:44,694
Are you feeling better?

345
00:15:44,736 --> 00:15:46,738
Yes, baby, I'm fine.

346
00:15:46,780 --> 00:15:49,741
GEORGE SR.:
All right, here we go.

347
00:15:49,783 --> 00:15:52,201
Chocolate chips for breakfast
and pizza for dinner?

348
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:53,536
I'm loving Dad.

349
00:15:53,578 --> 00:15:56,414
Where were you last night?

350
00:15:56,456 --> 00:15:58,958
Out with your grandmother.
But where'd you go?

351
00:15:58,999 --> 00:16:00,959
Enough questions.
Y'all ask me questions

352
00:16:01,001 --> 00:16:02,670
when I come home late.

353
00:16:02,712 --> 00:16:05,548
Oh, I can explain that-- you're
an idiot and we don't trust you.

354
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:08,217
(sighs)

355
00:16:08,259 --> 00:16:10,219
Mom, you didn't say grace.

356
00:16:10,261 --> 00:16:13,514
Don't worry about it.

357
00:16:15,266 --> 00:16:16,893
Come on, y'all.

358
00:16:19,270 --> 00:16:21,648
(sighs)

359
00:16:23,942 --> 00:16:25,276
Can I sit with you?

360
00:16:25,318 --> 00:16:29,029
I think Mommy needs to
be alone right now.

361
00:16:29,071 --> 00:16:31,198
All right.

362
00:16:36,412 --> 00:16:39,123
(sighs)

363
00:16:39,165 --> 00:16:41,584
Mom, I'm scared.

364
00:16:41,626 --> 00:16:42,961
Why?

365
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:44,253
You didn't go to church,

366
00:16:44,295 --> 00:16:45,839
you stopped saying grace.

367
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,215
I don't understand
what's going on.

368
00:16:48,257 --> 00:16:51,218
(sighs)

369
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:53,053
It's kind of hard to explain.

370
00:16:53,095 --> 00:16:55,723
Is it me?

371
00:16:55,765 --> 00:16:57,183
Did I do something wrong?

372
00:16:57,224 --> 00:16:59,017
Of course not.

373
00:16:59,059 --> 00:17:00,770
(pats seat)
Come here.

374
00:17:00,812 --> 00:17:04,064
(sighs)

375
00:17:04,106 --> 00:17:08,486
Sheldon... (sighs)

376
00:17:08,528 --> 00:17:10,738
faith means believing
in something

377
00:17:10,780 --> 00:17:14,450
you can't know
for sure is real.

378
00:17:14,492 --> 00:17:16,536
(sighs)

379
00:17:16,577 --> 00:17:20,999
And right now,
I am struggling with that.

380
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,751
So you don't believe
in God anymore?

381
00:17:23,793 --> 00:17:27,714
That isn't something for you
to worry about.

382
00:17:27,755 --> 00:17:29,507
I need to
figure this out myself.

383
00:17:29,549 --> 00:17:32,760
Can I help? Maybe I could
provide a fresh perspective.

384
00:17:32,802 --> 00:17:35,555
I don't think so, baby.

385
00:17:40,267 --> 00:17:42,645
SHELDON:
Did you know that if gravity

386
00:17:42,687 --> 00:17:44,062
were slightly
more powerful,

387
00:17:44,104 --> 00:17:46,357
the universe would
collapse into a ball?

388
00:17:46,399 --> 00:17:48,359
I did not.

389
00:17:48,401 --> 00:17:52,405
Also, if gravity were
slightly less powerful,

390
00:17:52,446 --> 00:17:54,240
the universe would
fly apart

391
00:17:54,281 --> 00:17:56,617
and there would be
no stars or planets.

392
00:17:56,659 --> 00:17:59,078
Where you going
with this, Sheldon?

393
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,915
It's just that gravity
is precisely as strong

394
00:18:01,956 --> 00:18:03,374
as it needs to be.

395
00:18:03,416 --> 00:18:06,377
And if the ratio of the
electromagnetic force

396
00:18:06,419 --> 00:18:08,337
to the strong force
wasn't one percent,

397
00:18:08,379 --> 00:18:09,881
life wouldn't exist.

398
00:18:09,923 --> 00:18:12,258
What are the odds that
would happen all by itself?

399
00:18:12,299 --> 00:18:16,303
Why are you trying to
convince me to believe in God?

400
00:18:16,345 --> 00:18:18,097
You don't believe in God.

401
00:18:18,138 --> 00:18:20,224
I don't, but the precision
of the universe

402
00:18:20,266 --> 00:18:23,394
at least makes it logical to
conclude there's a creator.

403
00:18:23,436 --> 00:18:26,355
(sighs)

404
00:18:26,397 --> 00:18:32,361
Baby, I appreciate what you're
trying to do, but...

405
00:18:32,403 --> 00:18:34,614
logic is here.

406
00:18:34,655 --> 00:18:37,951
And my problem is here.

407
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,581
Well, there are 5 billion
people on this planet

408
00:18:43,623 --> 00:18:46,667
and you're the
perfect mom for me.

409
00:18:46,709 --> 00:18:49,045
What are the odds of that?

410
00:18:54,926 --> 00:18:57,428
Oh.

411
00:18:57,470 --> 00:19:01,557
Thank you, Lord,
for this little boy.

412
00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:05,686
I knew I could fix it.
(laughs)

413
00:19:05,728 --> 00:19:09,440
Maybe it was you
and the Lord.

414
00:19:09,482 --> 00:19:11,567
ADULT SHELDON:
I don't like sharing credit,

415
00:19:11,609 --> 00:19:13,903
but I knew in that moment
it wasn't the appropriate time

416
00:19:13,945 --> 00:19:15,989
to say it.

417
00:19:25,456 --> 00:19:27,834
And Jacob said: "For I have
seen God face to face,

418
00:19:27,875 --> 00:19:30,003
and my life is preserved."

419
00:19:30,044 --> 00:19:32,421
(whispering): Is this
an appropriate time to mention

420
00:19:32,463 --> 00:19:33,589
that John 1:18 says,

421
00:19:33,631 --> 00:19:35,049
"No man hath seen God

422
00:19:35,091 --> 00:19:37,760
at any time."
Who's right?

423
00:19:37,802 --> 00:19:38,970
Jacob or John?

424
00:19:39,012 --> 00:19:41,889
Let's talk about it
in the car.

425
00:19:41,931 --> 00:19:43,223
JEFF:
...the Lord.

426
00:19:43,265 --> 00:19:44,266
Yes, Connie?

427
00:19:44,308 --> 00:19:46,102
My grandson has a question.

428
00:19:46,144 --> 00:19:47,812
(sighs)

429
00:19:47,854 --> 00:19:49,981
Let 'er rip, kid.
question.
