The 43 Peculiarity


 * Leonard: Hi.
 * Penny: Hey. Shouldn't you be out with your gang spray-painting equations on the side of buildings?
 * Leonard: Come on, I’m sorry.
 * Penny: I just can’t believe you don’t trust me.
 * Leonard: I feel... Of course I do.
 * Penny: Then why did you embarrass me in front of my friend who, by the way, knew exactly who you were?!
 * Leonard: Really?
 * Penny: Your picture’s on my refrigerator!
 * Leonard: Oh. You know, I’m really starting to not like this guy.
 * Penny: What is your problem? Do you use up all your thinking at work and then have none left over for when you get home?
 * Leonard: I don’t know. It’s hard sometimes. Everywhere you go guys hit on you, even if I’m standing right there. And they are all taller than me. Why is everyone always taller than me?! You know what? This is all in my head. It’s my problem, not yours.
 * Penny: Leonard. Why do you always do this? Listen to me. You are the one I’m with. You know I love you. So would you please relax--because you are driving me crazy!
 * Leonard: You know that’s the first time you ever said that you love me.
 * Penny: Yeah...
 * Leonard: We’re supposed to pretend it’s not a big deal?
 * Penny: That’s exactly what we’re going to do... because you’re about to make me cry and we both know that if I start crying, you’re going to start crying.
 * Leonard: You’re right, you should go.
 * Penny: Fine! [Runs away downstairs]
 * Leonard: [Enters apartment] She loves me.


 * Alex: Oh hi, Dr. Hofstadter.
 * Leonard: Oh, hey, Alex. And call me Leonard. Dr. Hofstadter is my father. And my mother. And my sister. And our cat. Although I’m pretty sure that Dr. “Boots” Hofstadter’s degree is honorary.
 * Alex: May I join you, Leonard?
 * Leonard: Sure. Um, let me ask you something. My girlfriend knows this guy at school. He’s got an English accent.
 * Alex: Ooh, I love English accents.
 * Leonard: Yeah, you all do. Anyway, I feel like he’s hitting on her. She says he’s just being nice and I should trust her.
 * Alex: It’s probably harmless. You know how it is. I’m sure you get hit on all the time.
 * Leonard: Right. Because girls are always like: Ooo, that guy owns two Star Trek uniforms and gets lots of ear infections. "I got to get me some of that."
 * Alex: You know, I bet it happens more than you realize.
 * Leonard: Trust me. It doesn't.
 * Alex: You sure? You’re cute. You’re funny. Maybe you’re getting hit on and you don’t even know it.
 * Leonard: Really?
 * Alex: Yep, pretty sure.
 * Leonard: (Laughs) I have to get back to work. Thanks for listening.
 * Alex: No problem.
 * Leonard: Hope no girls rip my clothes off along the way.


 * Alex: All I know is corduroy makes too much noise and I have to go find quieter pants.


 * Sheldon (On screen): This is Dr. Sheldon Cooper. Experimental log. Wormhole generator test forty-four.
 * Howard: Wormhole generator test? (On screen a wormhole appears)
 * Sheldon: The first forty-three parallel universes I've checked proved to be empty. I see no reason to suspect universe number forty-four will be any different. (Puts his head in the wormhole)
 * Howard: Oh, my God!
 * Raj: Holy crap!
 * Sheldon (With an alien creature stuck to his face): Oh! It’s eating my face!
