Previously on Young Sheldon...
2
00:00:02,250 --> 00:00:03,279
So, where should I go?
3
00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:04,520
- Caltech.
- MIT.
4
00:00:05,540 --> 00:00:07,119
I'm so excited to visit MIT.
5
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:08,880
Me, too.
6
00:00:10,170 --> 00:00:11,930
Proud of you, son.
7
00:00:11,980 --> 00:00:13,170
Thank you, Dad.

00:00:16,050 --> 00:00:18,080
- Caltech?
- Caltech.
10
00:00:21,188 --> 00:00:23,274
ADULT SHELDON: I always
believed my extraordinary life
11
00:00:23,275 --> 00:00:26,260
would be chronicled in
numerous biographies.
12
00:00:26,310 --> 00:00:28,510
I even used to make up my own titles.
13
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:29,650
My favorites were:
14
00:00:29,690 --> 00:00:32,460
From Texas to Success:
the Sheldon Cooper Journey,
15
00:00:32,510 --> 00:00:34,120
and Cooper for Kids,
16
00:00:34,170 --> 00:00:37,500
a pre-school introduction to
quantum gravity in superstrings.
17
00:00:37,550 --> 00:00:41,860
The point is, I knew my formative
years would be well-documented,
18
00:00:41,917 --> 00:00:43,830
which meant I needed to polish up
19
00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:46,000
some of my early academic credentials,
20
00:00:46,020 --> 00:00:48,230
especially East Texas Tech.
21
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,480
Wh-What am I looking at?
22
00:00:49,530 --> 00:00:52,250
My proposal for next semester's
curriculum on string theory.
23
00:00:52,303 --> 00:00:53,646
I may be leaving, but that doesn't mean
24
00:00:53,670 --> 00:00:54,990
you can attract more brilliant minds
25
00:00:55,010 --> 00:00:56,500
by staying on the cutting edge.
26
00:00:56,557 --> 00:00:58,390
Sheldon, you are not a professor here.
27
00:00:58,440 --> 00:00:59,950
Oh, I know. If I were to teach,
28
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,080
it would be at a much better
university than this one.
29
00:01:02,104 --> 00:01:06,280
And, in 54 days, you will no
longer be a student here.
30
00:01:06,330 --> 00:01:07,970
Not that I'm counting.
31
00:01:08,027 --> 00:01:09,720
True, we should relish these moments.
32
00:01:09,778 --> 00:01:12,640
Oh, I'm relishing. Look at me relish.
33
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,900
So, what am I supposed to do with this?
34
00:01:15,951 --> 00:01:17,026
Just because I won't be here
35
00:01:17,050 --> 00:01:19,470
doesn't mean I won't forever be
associated with this university.
36
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,066
And it would be nice
if people look at my résumé
37
00:01:21,090 --> 00:01:24,070
and said "East Texas Tech,"
not "East Texas Tech."
38
00:01:24,126 --> 00:01:26,530
You said those the exact same way.
39
00:01:26,587 --> 00:01:29,610
Really? In my head, the second
one was dripping with scorn.
40
00:01:29,660 --> 00:01:31,660
"East Texas Tech." How was that?
41
00:01:31,717 --> 00:01:32,750
Dripping.
42
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:34,730
- Mm.
- Sheldon, I appreciate this,
43
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,980
but, uh, we have an
excellent faculty here,
44
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:40,390
and they are quite capable of
devising their own curriculum
45
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:41,550
without your help.
46
00:01:41,602 --> 00:01:43,036
I suppose I could spin East Texas Tech
47
00:01:43,060 --> 00:01:44,540
as a hardship I had to overcome,
48
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:46,800
like a hunchback or a club foot.
49
00:01:46,857 --> 00:01:48,970
(QUIETLY): 54 days.
50
00:01:49,026 --> 00:01:51,020
I know. I'm going to miss this, too.
51
00:01:51,070 --> 00:01:52,520

58
00:02:10,589 --> 00:02:12,700
So, this is the new physics curriculum
59
00:02:12,758 --> 00:02:14,540
I've developed for next year.
60
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:18,450
Introduction to nonlinear sigma models?
61
00:02:18,500 --> 00:02:20,750
That's some pretty advanced stuff.
62
00:02:20,808 --> 00:02:22,240
And that's the point.
63
00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:23,610
You know, Sheldon may be leaving,
64
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:25,690
but we can attract
the next brilliant mind
65
00:02:25,710 --> 00:02:27,470
if we stay on the cutting edge.
66
00:02:27,523 --> 00:02:28,850
Couldn't agree more.
67
00:02:28,910 --> 00:02:30,176
In fact, John, why don't you take point
68
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,220
on that nonlinear class
and I'll teach, uh...
69
00:02:33,278 --> 00:02:35,140
Ooh, so much here I've heard of,
70
00:02:35,190 --> 00:02:36,920
which one do I pick?
71
00:02:37,490 --> 00:02:39,960
All right, if this material is
too challenging for you,
72
00:02:39,980 --> 00:02:42,270
maybe I should rethink my faculty.
73
00:02:42,810 --> 00:02:44,210
What are you saying?
74
00:02:44,260 --> 00:02:47,200
Well, legally I can't say
that I'm replacing you
75
00:02:47,251 --> 00:02:49,550
with someone younger,
so I'm not saying that.
76
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:50,740
Uh, legally.
77
00:02:50,796 --> 00:02:52,610
Nice try, but I have tenure.
78
00:02:52,660 --> 00:02:54,840
- I don't.
- Tough luck.
79
00:02:54,890 --> 00:02:57,000
HAGEMEYER: Another thing I'm not saying
80
00:02:57,050 --> 00:02:59,150
is that I'm going to put
your office at the top
81
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,210
of a flight of very steep stairs.
82
00:03:01,265 --> 00:03:02,970
Okay, that won't be necessary.
83
00:03:02,990 --> 00:03:05,180
We may be out of the loop on this stuff,
84
00:03:05,230 --> 00:03:06,570
but we can catch up.
85
00:03:06,620 --> 00:03:07,710
Agreed!
86
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,930
We can be up to speed in
two shakes of a lamb's tail.
87
00:03:10,983 --> 00:03:12,430
Don't say that, you sound old.

I said that to her when she
was pregnant. No bueno.

Well, we are so happy to babysit.
100
00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:42,590
In fact, if you want to go to dinner
101
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,560
after the movie, that's fine with us.
102
00:03:44,610 --> 00:03:47,310
Aw, thanks, but we're
trying to save money.
103
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,760
George, give them some money
so they can go to dinner.

We're already babysitting for free.
105
00:03:51,690 --> 00:03:53,810
But we never get to see this little one,
106
00:03:53,820 --> 00:03:56,840
because her mean Mommy
and Daddy moved her away.
107
00:03:56,890 --> 00:03:59,480
Well, Mommy and Daddy have
their own bathroom now, so...
108
00:03:59,531 --> 00:04:01,150
Oh, that's the dream right there.

Grampy? I didn't sign off on that.

to get this nap started.

(KNOCKING) STURGIS: Grant.
116
00:04:19,927 --> 00:04:22,070

117
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,460
on the Landau-Ginzburg orbifold.
118
00:04:24,515 --> 00:04:27,300
I'm almost done with one
on Planckian scattering.
119
00:04:27,351 --> 00:04:29,640
I don't know why we were so reluctant
120
00:04:29,690 --> 00:04:32,260
to dive into these new theories.
121
00:04:32,314 --> 00:04:34,850
- Agreed.
- Exciting stuff.
122
00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:36,600
- Thrilling.
- So thrilling.
123
00:04:36,652 --> 00:04:38,520
A little hard to parse.
124
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:40,560
A bit enigmatic.
125
00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:42,980
I had to read the same
paragraph four times.
126
00:04:43,033 --> 00:04:46,480
I fell asleep on one paper,
drooled all over it.
127
00:04:46,537 --> 00:04:50,170
- Huh.
- Is it possible that we're too old
128
00:04:50,180 --> 00:04:51,570
to learn new things?
129
00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:53,330
Nonsense. This would
have been over my head
130
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:54,620
even as a young man.
131
00:04:54,670 --> 00:04:57,330
Maybe we just need someone
to explain it to us.
132
00:04:57,381 --> 00:04:58,990
Are you talking about Sheldon?
133
00:04:59,049 --> 00:05:00,910
I'm sure he'd be happy to help.
134
00:05:00,968 --> 00:05:02,580
Oh, that's what I'm afraid of.
135
00:05:02,630 --> 00:05:04,276
I don't want to give him
the satisfaction of thinking
136
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:05,540
he's smarter than us.
137
00:05:05,597 --> 00:05:07,800
But he is smarter than us.
138
00:05:07,850 --> 00:05:10,710
I know that and you know that,
but he can never know that.
139
00:05:10,769 --> 00:05:12,800
Okay, how about this?
140
00:05:12,855 --> 00:05:15,180
We take one of these papers,
141
00:05:15,232 --> 00:05:18,140
buckle down and figure it out together.

179
00:06:25,594 --> 00:06:26,670
It's my ear.
180
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,540
We made that ear. It's our ear.
181
00:06:28,597 --> 00:06:30,290
I hate this house.
182
00:06:30,349 --> 00:06:32,170
(GROANS)
183
00:06:32,225 --> 00:06:34,590
- I miss when she couldn't talk.
- (EXHALES)
184
00:06:45,197 --> 00:06:47,300
- Hi, Sheldon.
- Hello.
185
00:06:47,350 --> 00:06:49,330
I was hoping I could pick your brain
186
00:06:49,380 --> 00:06:52,730
about some of the latest
breakthroughs in string theory.
187
00:06:52,780 --> 00:06:56,400
And, uh, maybe we keep this between us.
188
00:06:56,450 --> 00:06:59,110
Uh, Dr. Linkletter doesn't need to know.
189
00:07:01,630 --> 00:07:03,520
- Grant?
- John.
190
00:07:03,570 --> 00:07:07,620
I can't believe you went to
Sheldon behind my back.
191
00:07:07,678 --> 00:07:09,830
You're doing the same exact thing.
192
00:07:09,888 --> 00:07:11,880
Yeah, well, you did it first!
193
00:07:12,630 --> 00:07:14,300
In or out? I don't have all night.
194
00:07:18,270 --> 00:07:20,240
Well, thanks so much for watching her.
195
00:07:20,290 --> 00:07:21,350
Was she any trouble?
196
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,350
- No, not at all.
- How was your nap?
197
00:07:23,402 --> 00:07:24,890
- I've had better.
- Hey.
198
00:07:24,945 --> 00:07:26,770
A guy talks out of his butt, I laugh.
199
00:07:26,822 --> 00:07:28,730
Dr Pepper came out your nose.
200
00:07:28,782 --> 00:07:30,420
Yeah, when words came out of his butt.
201
00:07:30,470 --> 00:07:32,840
GEORGE SR.: Okay. Mare, this is
where you hand the baby back
202
00:07:32,890 --> 00:07:35,190
- and let them leave.
- I'm just soaking her up.
203
00:07:35,247 --> 00:07:36,276
They don't live in Kansas.
204
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:37,957
(CHUCKLING): You can see
'em whenever you want.
205
00:07:37,958 --> 00:07:41,770
Okay, well, Nana loves you.
206
00:07:41,820 --> 00:07:44,990
Nana's the best. Nana.
207
00:07:45,048 --> 00:07:46,830
Nana, Nana, Nana.
208
00:07:46,883 --> 00:07:48,960
All right, Nana. Take it down a notch.
209
00:07:49,011 --> 00:07:52,870
Okay. Bring her back anytime.
I mean it, anytime.
210
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,160
- I think they got it.
- We got it.
211
00:07:55,210 --> 00:07:56,300
Bye.
212
00:07:57,300 --> 00:08:00,040
- That was so nice.
- Yeah, what a sweet deal.
213
00:08:00,070 --> 00:08:01,856
You have a little fun,
then hand her right back.
214
00:08:01,857 --> 00:08:05,580
I don't know, I like having
a baby in the house.
215
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:09,560
(CHUCKLES): Yeah, well...
216
00:08:09,614 --> 00:08:10,880
You know, Russ at work,
217
00:08:10,930 --> 00:08:12,780
he-he's starting all over
with wife number two.
218
00:08:12,830 --> 00:08:15,400
You should see him.
Looks like a walking corpse.
219
00:08:15,454 --> 00:08:17,730
That doesn't sound so bad.
220
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,950
Are you serious?
221
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,000
(SIGHS)
222
00:08:21,010 --> 00:08:24,370
Well, Georgie and
CeeCee live across town,
223
00:08:24,421 --> 00:08:26,920
Sheldon's about to move to California.
224
00:08:26,970 --> 00:08:28,580
The house is gonna feel empty.
225
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:31,500
Whoa, whoa, it ain't empty
yet, you still got Missy here.
226
00:08:31,553 --> 00:08:34,210
Missy doesn't let me hug her anymore.
227
00:08:34,264 --> 00:08:36,550
That is not true. Missy, get out here
228
00:08:36,570 --> 00:08:38,130
- and hug your mother!
- MISSY: No!
229
00:08:39,820 --> 00:08:41,170

231
00:08:45,380 --> 00:08:46,470
Mm, mm.
232
00:08:46,526 --> 00:08:47,900
Booth just opened up.
233
00:08:47,950 --> 00:08:49,300
Y'all want to move over?
234
00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:51,690
Booth? We're not on a date.
235
00:08:51,740 --> 00:08:53,900
I don't want our knees
rubbing up on each other.
236
00:08:53,950 --> 00:08:56,180
Well, excuse me for
wanting to be comfortable.
237
00:08:56,230 --> 00:08:58,590
George, you believe this guy?
He wants to sit in a booth.
238
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,110
(CHUCKLES): What? Oh, yeah.
239
00:09:00,165 --> 00:09:02,110
Come on, Wayne we're not on a date.
240
00:09:02,167 --> 00:09:04,530
PETERSEN: I just made that joke.
Get your head in the game.
241
00:09:04,586 --> 00:09:07,750
Sorry, I... I'm a little distracted.
242
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,330
All right, what's going on?
243
00:09:09,382 --> 00:09:11,800
We were babysitting the granddaughter.
244
00:09:11,850 --> 00:09:13,830
I'm worried Mary's
got a little baby fever.
245
00:09:14,530 --> 00:09:15,750
You tell her about Russ?
246
00:09:15,806 --> 00:09:17,590
'Course I told her about Russ.
247
00:09:17,641 --> 00:09:20,300
Poor bastard. Shuffling
around like a zombie.
248
00:09:20,352 --> 00:09:21,960
And Russ is in shape.
249
00:09:22,010 --> 00:09:24,090
(CHUCKLES): You can't go
around chasing after a baby.
250
00:09:24,130 --> 00:09:27,430
Hey, I'll have you know I got up
off the floor all by myself today.
251
00:09:27,484 --> 00:09:28,720
Of course you did.
252
00:09:28,777 --> 00:09:31,130
Just because she's having
fun with your grandkid
253
00:09:31,180 --> 00:09:32,850
doesn't mean she wants more babies.
254
00:09:32,900 --> 00:09:33,980
I don't know.
255
00:09:34,032 --> 00:09:35,980
She's definitely brought it up before.
256
00:09:36,034 --> 00:09:37,440
Oh, boy.
257
00:09:37,494 --> 00:09:39,650
There's gonna be a new zombie in town.
258
00:09:39,704 --> 00:09:41,016
- Chunky zombie. (LAUGHS)
- (LAUGHS)
259
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,850
Hey, it isn't all up to her.
I have a say in this.
260
00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:46,240
- (LAUGHS)
- I'm serious. It...
261
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:47,910
It takes two. Mm.
262
00:09:47,963 --> 00:09:49,410
Then be honest with her.
263
00:09:49,464 --> 00:09:53,120
Or you don't want another
one, do what I did.
264
00:09:53,176 --> 00:09:54,790
I'm not getting a divorce.
265
00:09:54,845 --> 00:09:57,460
No, I mean, get a little snip.
266
00:09:57,514 --> 00:09:59,430
Never worry about it again.
267
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,960
Well, you mean like a...
like a down-there snip?
268
00:10:03,019 --> 00:10:05,380
I can't believe I let you teach Health.
269
00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:07,550
Well, Mary'd never go for that.
270
00:10:07,607 --> 00:10:08,890
I didn't know you got snipped.
271
00:10:08,942 --> 00:10:12,140
That's 'cause my balls are
none of your business.
272
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,180
Fair point.
273
00:10:14,239 --> 00:10:17,150
If W is the Kähler metric
on the algebraic variety X,
274
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,980
and the canonical bundle
KX is trivial, then X is what?
275
00:10:20,036 --> 00:10:22,440
- A Zariski space.
- Wrong.
276
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,530
Hey!
277
00:10:24,583 --> 00:10:26,490
Obviously, it's an elliptic curve.
278
00:10:26,543 --> 00:10:27,570
Wrong.
279
00:10:27,627 --> 00:10:31,080
- Hey!
- Why are you hitting us?
280
00:10:31,131 --> 00:10:33,700
- Wrong.
- Ow! Why'd you hit me?
281
00:10:33,758 --> 00:10:35,660
Pain is the best teacher.
282
00:10:35,719 --> 00:10:36,719
I'm teaching you.
283
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,300
Well, it feels like you're hitting us.
284
00:10:38,350 --> 00:10:40,030
Like you, I struggled
with these concepts,
285
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,286
but eventually, I mastered them,
through hard work, resilience
286
00:10:42,310 --> 00:10:44,050
and a healthy dose of knuckle whacking.
287
00:10:44,102 --> 00:10:46,370
Son, we are accomplished scientists.
288
00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:48,140
We won't be treated like this.
289
00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:49,550
Very well.
290
00:10:49,608 --> 00:10:51,930
Class, who knows where
the dummkopf went wrong?
291
00:10:51,985 --> 00:10:54,430
Dummkopf? You're calling me a dummy?
292
00:10:54,487 --> 00:10:57,310
There's also public humiliation.
That was quite effective.
293
00:10:57,365 --> 00:10:58,606
Are you old dummkopfs ready to learn,
294
00:10:58,630 --> 00:10:59,900
or is it past your bedtime?
295
00:10:59,951 --> 00:11:03,020
Oh, I'm good till at least 7:30.

(DOOR CLOSES)
297
00:11:07,209 --> 00:11:08,410
Hey.
298
00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:10,100
What you doing?
299
00:11:10,150 --> 00:11:12,870
- The twins' first birthday.
- Yeah.
300
00:11:12,923 --> 00:11:14,290
Look how little they were.
301
00:11:14,341 --> 00:11:16,000
- Well, look how little I was.
- Oh.
302
00:11:16,051 --> 00:11:18,170
And Georgie when
he lost his first tooth.
303
00:11:18,220 --> 00:11:19,376
When he learned it was worth a quarter,
304
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,250
- he tried to pull out the rest of 'em.
- Ah.
305
00:11:21,306 --> 00:11:22,880
Guess he's always been a businessman.
306
00:11:22,933 --> 00:11:24,800
Yeah. And an idiot.
307
00:11:24,851 --> 00:11:28,090
Tell me you don't miss
their sweet little faces.
308
00:11:28,146 --> 00:11:30,330
Mm. That's why we took pictures.
309
00:11:30,380 --> 00:11:33,600
It's not the same as rocking
'em to sleep at night.
310
00:11:33,652 --> 00:11:35,390
Yeah, 'till they wake
you up at 3:00 a.m.
311
00:11:35,445 --> 00:11:37,270
And smelling their little heads.
312
00:11:37,322 --> 00:11:39,190
Really? That's the smell you remember?
313
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,650
Come on. It wasn't that bad.
314
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:45,110
It wasn't, but... we were younger then.
315
00:11:45,163 --> 00:11:48,650
I'm not saying we should
try for another one.
316
00:11:48,708 --> 00:11:50,510
- Great.
- I'm just saying,
317
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:52,700
if there was an accident,
318
00:11:52,750 --> 00:11:54,870
it might be a happy accident.
319
00:11:54,923 --> 00:11:56,590
Mm-hmm.
320
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,790
I guess it's in God's hands.
321
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,440
I guess it is.

advanced age is a factor.
