The Higgs Boson Observation


 * Sheldon: Do you know about the Higgs boson?
 * Penny: Of course. It's, it's been in the news, and it's a very famous boson.


 * Sheldon: Flattery will get you nowhere.
 * Alex: It's not flattery if it's true.


 * Amy: (To Penny about Alex) You were right, I had nothing to worry about. That skank's your problem, not mine.


 * Amy: (to Penny) If my new look leads to phone sex, I'm going to have to ask you to leave the room.


 * Penny: I'm just a blonde monkey to you, aren't I?
 * Sheldon: You said it, not me.


 * Leonard: So, Alex, what’s the topic of your dissertation?
 * Alex: I’m looking for Trojan asteroids at Earth’s L-Five Lagrange point.
 * Leonard: Oh, that happens to be Dr. Koothrappali’s field of expertise. You two have a lot to talk about.
 * Alex: Is that true? (Raj moves to another table without saying a word, Alex asks Leonard) Is he all right?
 * Leonard: No. But compared to your boss, he’s the poster boy for sanity.


 * Bernadette: Hey, I wasn’t expecting to hear from you today. Everything okay?
 * Howard: Uh, no, not really.
 * Bernadette: (sounding rather worried) What’s wrong?
 * Howard: Well, remember the Soyuz capsule they were sending to bring us home?
 * Bernadette: Uh-huh.
 * Howard: It’s delayed. We’re gonna be here at least another week. Maybe ten days. It’s the Russians, so you don’t know. (crazed whisper) They left dogs up here in the sixties.
 * Bernadette: Come on, Howard. No one’s leaving you up there.
 * Howard: I don’t know how much longer I can take this. I can’t sleep, and zero gravity is giving me crazy acid reflux. I’m down to my last three Tums.
 * Bernadette: You’re going to be fine. You survived that Weight Watchers cruise with your mom. And they ran out of low-fat ice cream on day two. Just calm down and take a few deep breaths.
 * Howard: Okay, okay. What am I doing? I’m using up all the oxygen. If I die, promise you’ll never have sex with another man.
