Billy! Mr. Cooper is here.

How you doing?

00:00:08,573 --> 00:00:11,098
Do not look under that rock.
5
00:00:12,229 --> 00:00:14,403
But I appreciate you asking.
6
00:00:14,405 --> 00:00:16,144
Hey, you got rejected.
7
00:00:16,146 --> 00:00:18,103
But was it the end of the world?
8
00:00:18,105 --> 00:00:19,257
No.
9
00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:21,541
And that is extremely
valuable information.
10
00:00:21,543 --> 00:00:22,977
And honestly...
11
00:00:22,979 --> 00:00:25,197
you dodged a bullet with Missy.
12
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:27,025
The girl is mean.
13
00:00:27,027 --> 00:00:28,985
Thanks.

- Hey.
- Hey!
17
00:00:39,371 --> 00:00:42,278
Came to see your man be a
leader of little people, huh?
18
00:00:42,281 --> 00:00:44,738
I came to see my granddaughter pitch.
19
00:00:44,740 --> 00:00:46,387
Yeah, under my leadership.
20
00:00:46,390 --> 00:00:48,307
All right, Cooper,
let's see what you got.
21
00:00:48,309 --> 00:00:49,571
Come on, girl!
22
00:00:52,443 --> 00:00:53,964
Come on, shake it off!
23
00:00:53,966 --> 00:00:55,533
You got this.

25
00:01:01,713 --> 00:01:03,541
Well, there's some leadership.

27
00:01:08,459 --> 00:01:09,806
Cooper!
28
00:01:09,808 --> 00:01:10,997
Time!

00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,082
Cooper, what is the problem?

where it's supposed to.

What am I doing wrong?
33
00:01:18,617 --> 00:01:20,575
Just a little case of the yips.
34
00:01:20,578 --> 00:01:22,689
- It happens.
- What's that?
35
00:01:22,691 --> 00:01:24,908

done a million times,

you can't do it anymore.
Even the pros get it.
39
00:01:31,612 --> 00:01:33,265
How do I get rid of it?
40
00:01:33,267 --> 00:01:35,615
Uh, just don't think about it.

early, you can take it again.

Only one question left.
151
00:05:51,089 --> 00:05:52,473
All I needed to do
152
00:05:52,476 --> 00:05:54,308
was solve Schrodinger's equation
153
00:05:54,310 --> 00:05:56,745
in a cylindrical well
by employing the zeroes
154
00:05:56,747 --> 00:05:58,880
of the Bessel function,
which of course were...
155
00:06:00,477 --> 00:06:02,390
Wait, what are they?
156
00:06:02,393 --> 00:06:04,230
Come on, you know this.
157
00:06:04,233 --> 00:06:06,235
You've done it a million times.
158
00:06:07,541 --> 00:06:09,617
Oh, dear.
159
00:06:17,594 --> 00:06:20,116
All right, Sheldon, time
to turn in your test.
160
00:06:20,118 --> 00:06:21,335
I'm not done yet.
161
00:06:21,337 --> 00:06:23,536
[sighs] I know you like to add
162
00:06:23,539 --> 00:06:25,557
your own "better questions" at the end,
163
00:06:25,559 --> 00:06:27,497
but for the last time,
I don't count them.
164
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:29,996
I just need a few more
minutes on this problem.
165
00:06:29,998 --> 00:06:31,257
That's an easy one.
166
00:06:31,260 --> 00:06:33,086
Just apply the zeroes
of the Bessel function.
167
00:06:33,088 --> 00:06:34,740
I know what I have to do.
168
00:06:34,742 --> 00:06:36,093
Is this is a tantrum?
169
00:06:36,096 --> 00:06:38,168
I've heard children your
age like to throw them.
170
00:06:38,171 --> 00:06:39,919
I can't remember what the zeroes
171
00:06:39,921 --> 00:06:41,747
of the Bessel function are.
172
00:06:41,749 --> 00:06:42,922
You didn't memorize them?
173
00:06:42,924 --> 00:06:45,141
Of course I did... October 7, 1988.
174
00:06:45,143 --> 00:06:46,752
I had just had a bowl of Teddy Grahams.
175
00:06:46,754 --> 00:06:49,102
Then what's the problem?
176
00:06:49,104 --> 00:06:51,757
I'm blanking, but I'll get it.
177
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:52,888
Sorry, son, class is over.
178
00:06:52,890 --> 00:06:54,054
No, I can do this.
179
00:06:54,057 --> 00:06:56,325
It's just one question.
You'll still pass.
180
00:06:56,328 --> 00:06:58,822
Sheldon Cooper doesn't "just pass."
181
00:06:58,825 --> 00:07:00,259
I have an idea.
182
00:07:00,262 --> 00:07:01,653
Let me see the test.
183
00:07:01,656 --> 00:07:03,290
Thank you.
184
00:07:03,292 --> 00:07:05,510
Sheldon Cooper isn't always

00:07:12,137 --> 00:07:15,257
All right, almost there.
187
00:07:15,260 --> 00:07:17,478
Hand me a screwdriver.
188
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,093
Don't stick this in an outlet.
189
00:07:19,096 --> 00:07:21,000
It really tingles.
190
00:07:21,003 --> 00:07:23,657
- We had an incident.
- Yeah.
191
00:07:23,660 --> 00:07:25,734
You know what?
192
00:07:25,737 --> 00:07:26,997
Why don't you fix it?
193
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,749
- BOTH: Really?
- Yeah, you see
194
00:07:28,752 --> 00:07:29,751
that little screw there?
195
00:07:29,754 --> 00:07:31,672
Just go ahead and tighten her up.
196
00:07:31,675 --> 00:07:33,762
- Like this?
- Yep.
197
00:07:33,765 --> 00:07:35,773
BILLY: What now?
198
00:07:35,776 --> 00:07:37,803
Uh, run outside and
turn the water back on.
199
00:07:37,805 --> 00:07:40,348
Here, I'm not allowed to run with this.
200
00:07:40,351 --> 00:07:43,027
We've had a lot of incidents.
201
00:07:44,594 --> 00:07:46,638
- Who knew you were so handy?
- Yeah.
202
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,703
There's just things
guys need to be good at.
203
00:07:48,706 --> 00:07:51,359
What else you good at?
204
00:07:51,362 --> 00:07:53,232
[water sputters]
205
00:07:53,235 --> 00:07:54,888
I should go.
206
00:07:58,695 --> 00:08:00,129
[door closes]
207
00:08:00,131 --> 00:08:02,044
Hey, pretty lady.
208
00:08:02,046 --> 00:08:04,351
- Are you drinking already?
- [laughs] No!
209
00:08:04,353 --> 00:08:07,049
Can't a guy give his wife a compliment?
210
00:08:07,051 --> 00:08:08,703
Do I have to smell your breath?
211
00:08:08,705 --> 00:08:10,313
How about a kiss instead?
212
00:08:10,315 --> 00:08:11,706
What is with you?
213
00:08:11,708 --> 00:08:13,229
Well, I don't know.
214
00:08:13,231 --> 00:08:15,362
Kids aren't home.
215
00:08:15,364 --> 00:08:17,882
Now? I'm doing laundry.
216
00:08:17,885 --> 00:08:19,320
Laundry can wait.
217
00:08:19,323 --> 00:08:20,889
So can your thing.
218
00:08:20,891 --> 00:08:22,500
I like to think of it as ourthing,
219
00:08:22,502 --> 00:08:25,590
but if you only have time for
my thing, that's fine, too.
220
00:08:25,592 --> 00:08:27,505
You're being weird.
221
00:08:27,507 --> 00:08:29,289
Weird sexy?
222
00:08:29,291 --> 00:08:30,420
No.
223
00:08:30,422 --> 00:08:32,466
- Headed to the bedroom?
- No!
224
00:08:32,468 --> 00:08:34,688
Just checking.
225
00:08:35,732 --> 00:08:36,862
[sighs]
226
00:08:36,864 --> 00:08:38,951
SHELDON: Missy!
227
00:08:38,953 --> 00:08:41,023
You gave me your yips.
228
00:08:41,026 --> 00:08:42,085
What?
229
00:08:42,088 --> 00:08:44,173
I froze on a test. That's
never happened before.
230
00:08:44,176 --> 00:08:45,435
It's all your fault.
231
00:08:45,437 --> 00:08:46,959
I told you it's not contagious.
232
00:08:46,961 --> 00:08:48,264
You put the thought in my head.
233
00:08:48,266 --> 00:08:49,875
The power of suggestion is very real.
234
00:08:49,877 --> 00:08:51,964
Case in point: tulip mania.
235
00:08:51,966 --> 00:08:53,922
- Here we go.
- Tulip mania
236
00:08:53,924 --> 00:08:55,593
was an insane desire to buy and trade
237
00:08:55,596 --> 00:08:57,230
tulip bulbs in the 1600s.
238
00:08:57,232 --> 00:08:59,014
It nearly ruined the Dutch economy.
239
00:08:59,016 --> 00:09:00,973
You would not believe the
gilders they were spending.
240
00:09:00,975 --> 00:09:02,714
How can you remember
this stupid information,
241
00:09:02,716 --> 00:09:04,411
but not the stuff on your test?
242
00:09:04,413 --> 00:09:05,760
You tell me, they're your yips.
243
00:09:05,762 --> 00:09:07,793
Sheldon, if I knew how to make it stop,
244
00:09:07,796 --> 00:09:08,981
I would tell you.
245
00:09:08,983 --> 00:09:10,678
You better.
246
00:09:10,681 --> 00:09:13,582
Maybe it's puberty
making you all emotional.
247
00:09:13,585 --> 00:09:15,832
I checked my armpits...
Smooth as balloons.
248
00:09:15,835 --> 00:09:17,513
[groans]
249
00:09:18,645 --> 00:09:21,776
- Hey.
- [groans]
250
00:09:21,778 --> 00:09:23,383
What's your problem?
251
00:09:23,386 --> 00:09:24,864
I don't want to talk about it.
252
00:09:24,867 --> 00:09:26,738
- Great.
- I had a mental block
253
00:09:26,740 --> 00:09:28,217
on a test and it was something that
254
00:09:28,219 --> 00:09:29,697
I absolutely know how to do.
255
00:09:29,699 --> 00:09:32,004
Oh, you know, that sort of
thing happens in sports, too.
256
00:09:32,006 --> 00:09:33,353
I know. It's called the yips,
257
00:09:33,355 --> 00:09:34,484
and it's a very silly name
258
00:09:34,486 --> 00:09:35,964
for a very serious problem.
259
00:09:35,967 --> 00:09:37,793
Well, you know, the best thing to do
260
00:09:37,796 --> 00:09:40,316
is get out of your head.
261
00:09:40,318 --> 00:09:41,448
How do I do that?
262
00:09:41,450 --> 00:09:43,929
Just turn your brain off.
263
00:09:43,931 --> 00:09:45,495
It's like I'm not even your son.
264
00:09:45,497 --> 00:09:46,975
[sighs] Look.
265
00:09:46,977 --> 00:09:49,144
I know you don't respect
what I do as a coach.
266
00:09:49,147 --> 00:09:50,567
Maybe you do know me.
267
00:09:50,570 --> 00:09:53,356
But this is a thing
I actually know about.
268
00:09:53,359 --> 00:09:55,157
I've seen it happen to my players.
269
00:09:55,159 --> 00:09:57,072
I've seen it happen to pros in golf.
270
00:09:57,074 --> 00:09:58,552
In baseball.
271
00:09:58,554 --> 00:10:00,075
The answer is always the same.
272
00:10:00,077 --> 00:10:02,730
Stop thinking and get
out of your own way.
273
00:10:02,732 --> 00:10:06,125
I don't know how to do that.
274
00:10:06,127 --> 00:10:08,954
Have you ever heard the
Nike slogan "Just do it"?
275
00:10:08,956 --> 00:10:10,782
I'm familiar with the
phrase "let's do it,"
276
00:10:10,784 --> 00:10:12,740
uttered by Gary Gilmore, the last person
277
00:10:12,742 --> 00:10:15,440
to be executed by
firing squad in America.
278
00:10:16,594 --> 00:10:19,551
Okay, well, it's a shoe slogan.
279
00:10:19,554 --> 00:10:21,585
And it's good advice.
280
00:10:21,588 --> 00:10:23,843
The answer is already in your head.
281
00:10:23,846 --> 00:10:25,579
Don't think so hard.
282
00:10:25,581 --> 00:10:27,148
Just do it.
283
00:10:28,410 --> 00:10:29,801
I'll try.
284
00:10:29,803 --> 00:10:31,921
Good man.
285
00:10:31,924 --> 00:10:34,457
Another fun footwear
slogan is "I'm Buster Brown.
286
00:10:34,459 --> 00:10:36,721
I live in a shoe. That's my dog Tige.
287
00:10:36,723 --> 00:10:38,157
Look for him there, too."
288
00:10:38,159 --> 00:10:40,202
Mm, I think mine is more helpful.
289
00:10:40,204 --> 00:10:41,989
Well, mine rhymes, so...
290
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,340
ADULT SHELDON: I decided
to heed my father's advice.
291
00:10:47,343 --> 00:10:50,024
I wasn't sure how to turn off my brain.
292
00:10:50,027 --> 00:10:52,723
Thankfully, I lived with an expert.
293
00:10:52,726 --> 00:10:54,477
What's up?
294
00:10:54,479 --> 00:10:56,781
I've never really thought
about not thinking before.
295
00:10:56,784 --> 00:10:58,743
Well, I'm asking you to think about it.
296
00:10:58,745 --> 00:11:01,023
But I thought you were
interested in not thinking.
297
00:11:01,026 --> 00:11:02,833
I am. I want you to
think about not thinking,
298
00:11:02,836 --> 00:11:04,183
and then teach me how to do it.
299
00:11:04,185 --> 00:11:06,489
- Do what?
- Not think.
300
00:11:06,491 --> 00:11:08,537
All right.
301
00:11:11,018 --> 00:11:12,626
This is tough.
302
00:11:12,628 --> 00:11:14,765
I'm good at not thinking,
but I don't think
303
00:11:14,768 --> 00:11:16,935
I can teach you how to
not think without thinking.
304
00:11:16,937 --> 00:11:19,117
Hmm, well, thank you for trying.
305
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,851
Hold on! What if you're thinking
306
00:11:20,854 --> 00:11:22,331
about something else instead?
307
00:11:22,333 --> 00:11:24,333
Would that count as
thinking or not thinking?
308
00:11:24,335 --> 00:11:26,466
I suppose it's similar to the mantras
309
00:11:26,468 --> 00:11:28,195
extolled by the sages of the east.
310
00:11:28,198 --> 00:11:30,111
It's a practice that Swami Vivekananda
311
00:11:30,114 --> 00:11:32,384
called Japa Yoga and
it's intended to bring out
312
00:11:32,387 --> 00:11:35,129
a single-pointedness of concentration.
313
00:11:36,608 --> 00:11:38,347
Sorry, I zoned out.
314
00:11:38,349 --> 00:11:40,359
- Ooh, tell me how.
- Let's see.
315
00:11:40,362 --> 00:11:41,492
You were blabbering.
316
00:11:41,495 --> 00:11:43,109
It all started to blur together.
317
00:11:43,112 --> 00:11:44,312
And I was gone.
318
00:11:44,315 --> 00:11:46,311
At what point did it start to happen?
319
00:11:46,314 --> 00:11:47,789
I don't know. Say it again.
320
00:11:47,792 --> 00:11:49,053
I said I suppose
321
00:11:49,056 --> 00:11:50,446
it's similar to the mantras
322
00:11:50,448 --> 00:11:52,203
extolled by the sages of the east.
323
00:11:52,206 --> 00:11:55,424
It's a practice that Swami
Vivekananda called Japa Yoga...
324
00:11:55,427 --> 00:11:57,908
♪
325
00:12:04,549 --> 00:12:06,508
That is wild.
326
00:12:12,644 --> 00:12:15,242
ADULT SHELDON: The next day,
armed with the sage advice
327
00:12:15,245 --> 00:12:17,054
of my father, my brother,
328
00:12:17,057 --> 00:12:20,649
and an executed murderer, I
was allowed to retake the test.
329
00:12:20,652 --> 00:12:23,655
You have 45 minutes starting now.
330
00:12:24,539 --> 00:12:26,000
SHELDON: Okay, just do it.
331
00:12:26,003 --> 00:12:27,164
Just do it.
332
00:12:27,167 --> 00:12:29,776
Just turn your brain off and do it.
333
00:12:29,779 --> 00:12:31,648
Is it off? Am I doing it?
334
00:12:31,651 --> 00:12:34,156
Wait, if I'm thinking it's
off, then it must still be on.
335
00:12:34,159 --> 00:12:37,057
I'm trying too hard. Don't
overthink, just do it.
336
00:12:37,060 --> 00:12:39,570
Just do it, just...
337
00:12:39,573 --> 00:12:42,617
Time's up.
338
00:12:42,620 --> 00:12:43,837
But I didn't do it.
339
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,125
Waste my morning?
340
00:12:45,128 --> 00:12:46,545
You did it.
341
00:12:46,548 --> 00:12:48,766
That toilet won't stop running.
342
00:12:48,768 --> 00:12:50,429
Have you tried jiggling the handle?
343
00:12:50,432 --> 00:12:51,968
I jiggled it, wiggled it.
344
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:53,596
Damn near had a baby with it.
345
00:12:53,598 --> 00:12:55,207
[chuckles] Yeah, let me take a look.
346
00:12:55,209 --> 00:12:58,645
I was fixing to put some dinner
on, if you care to join me.
347
00:12:58,647 --> 00:13:00,576
I don't want to put you out.
348
00:13:00,579 --> 00:13:02,231
It's just frozen lasagna.
349
00:13:02,234 --> 00:13:04,782
But I'm going oven instead of microwave,
350
00:13:04,784 --> 00:13:06,479
'cause you're company. [chuckles]
351
00:13:06,481 --> 00:13:08,481
What are you doing?
352
00:13:08,483 --> 00:13:09,699
What do you mean?
353
00:13:09,701 --> 00:13:11,965
[scoffs] You know what I mean.
354
00:13:13,820 --> 00:13:16,332
I was just trying to thank you.
355
00:13:16,335 --> 00:13:17,901
And you're the one who offered
356
00:13:17,904 --> 00:13:19,512
to come over here and fix things.
357
00:13:19,515 --> 00:13:20,775
I was being nice.
358
00:13:20,778 --> 00:13:21,864
So was I.
359
00:13:21,867 --> 00:13:23,551
Yeah, maybe a little too nice.
360
00:13:23,554 --> 00:13:25,280
There is no pleasing you.
361
00:13:25,282 --> 00:13:26,512
Well, I don't need this here.
362
00:13:26,515 --> 00:13:27,793
I can get fighting at my house.
363
00:13:27,796 --> 00:13:29,894
Then maybe you should
go back to your house.
364
00:13:29,896 --> 00:13:32,684
BILLY: Mom, can you
help with my homework?
365
00:13:32,687 --> 00:13:34,942
There in a sec.
366
00:13:34,944 --> 00:13:36,814
You leaving?
367
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:38,250
You gonna fix the toilet?
368
00:13:38,252 --> 00:13:39,904
- No.
- Then I guess I'm not leaving.
369
00:13:39,906 --> 00:13:41,253
Thank you. Lasagna?
370
00:13:41,255 --> 00:13:42,950
Small piece. Mary's making tacos.
371
00:13:42,952 --> 00:13:44,187
Okay.
372
00:13:44,190 --> 00:13:46,442
ADULT SHELDON: Trying to
outsmart my own thought patterns
373
00:13:46,445 --> 00:13:47,999
proved to be challenging.
374
00:13:48,001 --> 00:13:51,306
It's understandable, as smart as I was,
375
00:13:51,308 --> 00:13:53,178
I was also that smart.
376
00:13:53,180 --> 00:13:56,877
I wondered if I could
invent a mind control device,
377
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,336
but that sounded a
little too "mwah-ha-ha"
378
00:13:59,339 --> 00:14:01,489
even for me. It turned out
379
00:14:01,492 --> 00:14:03,318
the device I was looking for
380
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,930
had been in my presence the entire time.
381
00:14:05,932 --> 00:14:07,975
Television. It had been tranquilizing
382
00:14:07,977 --> 00:14:10,551
the minds of America's
youth for generations,
383
00:14:10,554 --> 00:14:12,434
and it was just what I needed.
384
00:14:12,437 --> 00:14:13,981
MAN: Lift off.
385
00:14:13,983 --> 00:14:15,767
Too interesting.
386
00:14:16,906 --> 00:14:18,159
Too violent.
387
00:14:18,161 --> 00:14:19,552
[indistinct TV chatter]
388
00:14:19,554 --> 00:14:21,902
[chuckles] I don't think so.
389
00:14:21,904 --> 00:14:25,166
Now, then, let's build
us a little cloud.
390
00:14:25,168 --> 00:14:27,093
Clouds are very free.
391
00:14:27,096 --> 00:14:28,695
Very, very free.
392
00:14:28,698 --> 00:14:30,242
Tell you what. If you...
393
00:14:30,245 --> 00:14:32,304
That was so much fun, let's get crazy...
394
00:14:32,306 --> 00:14:35,307
Who's this bohemian?
395
00:14:35,310 --> 00:14:37,028
PETERSON: If you could have
396
00:14:37,031 --> 00:14:39,485
any job in the high
school, what would it be?
397
00:14:39,487 --> 00:14:41,664
[laughs] I don't know, why?
398
00:14:41,667 --> 00:14:43,884
Sometimes I look at the janitor
399
00:14:43,887 --> 00:14:45,796
pushing around that buffing machine.
400
00:14:45,799 --> 00:14:48,756
That thing looks like a blast.
401
00:14:48,759 --> 00:14:50,193
He doesn't wear a tie.
402
00:14:50,196 --> 00:14:53,154
No fights with the school board.
403
00:14:53,157 --> 00:14:56,595
Vomit and feces aside,
he's, he's living the dream.
404
00:14:58,003 --> 00:15:00,389
Hello? Am I boring you?
405
00:15:00,392 --> 00:15:01,435
Sorry.
406
00:15:01,438 --> 00:15:03,247
I'm a little distracted.
407
00:15:03,250 --> 00:15:06,120
Trouble at home?
408
00:15:06,122 --> 00:15:07,578
- Something like that.
- Mm.
409
00:15:07,581 --> 00:15:08,973
You want to talk about it?
410
00:15:10,331 --> 00:15:12,070
No.
411
00:15:12,073 --> 00:15:14,203
Tell me about your fun bachelor life.
412
00:15:14,206 --> 00:15:16,257
Well, as of last week, I officially
413
00:15:16,260 --> 00:15:18,617
tasted every Campbell's soup.
414
00:15:18,620 --> 00:15:20,500
[laughing]: Come on, Tom.
415
00:15:20,503 --> 00:15:22,329
I'm trying to live vicariously here.
416
00:15:22,332 --> 00:15:24,138
There's got to be something good.
417
00:15:24,140 --> 00:15:27,141
Let's see, I go hunting and
fishing whenever I feel like it.
418
00:15:27,143 --> 00:15:28,751
Now we're getting somewhere.
419
00:15:28,753 --> 00:15:32,059
- Spend my money on whatever I want.
- Mm.
420
00:15:32,061 --> 00:15:33,974
What was the last thing you got?
421
00:15:33,976 --> 00:15:36,484
Foreman fight on pay-per-view.
422
00:15:36,487 --> 00:15:39,843
I ate a bucket of chicken and
watched it in my underwear.
423
00:15:39,846 --> 00:15:41,117
You lucky bastard.
424
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,765
Uh-huh. [chuckles]
425
00:15:42,768 --> 00:15:44,046
What about women?
426
00:15:44,049 --> 00:15:46,625
[sighs] Honestly...
427
00:15:46,628 --> 00:15:49,771
it's tough to meet people at this age.
428
00:15:49,774 --> 00:15:51,914
No, come on, charming fella like you?
429
00:15:51,917 --> 00:15:53,003
[scoffs]
430
00:15:53,006 --> 00:15:54,504
Sadly, this is the best night out
431
00:15:54,507 --> 00:15:56,344
I've had in a long time.
432
00:15:56,346 --> 00:15:59,054
Yeah. Me, too.
433
00:15:59,057 --> 00:16:02,176
But if you know anybody,
send them my way.
434
00:16:02,179 --> 00:16:04,355
[country song playing softly]
435
00:16:05,877 --> 00:16:08,097
Yeah, I'll think about.
436
00:16:09,620 --> 00:16:11,890
You ever eat chicken in your underwear?
437
00:16:11,893 --> 00:16:13,144
What do you think?
438
00:16:13,146 --> 00:16:14,968
- Yes.
- Yes.
439
00:16:14,971 --> 00:16:16,842
BOB ROSS: Making a
gorgeous little mountain.
440
00:16:16,845 --> 00:16:17,984
Ooh.
441
00:16:17,987 --> 00:16:20,614
Little stand of evergreens
that lives right in here.
442
00:16:20,617 --> 00:16:22,936
I didn't know Richard Simmons can paint.
443
00:16:22,938 --> 00:16:24,351
His name's Bob Ross.
444
00:16:24,354 --> 00:16:26,050
And he's oddly hypnotic.
445
00:16:26,053 --> 00:16:27,443
You're gonna paint?
446
00:16:27,446 --> 00:16:29,203
No, I just like watching him.
447
00:16:29,205 --> 00:16:30,703
I can't explain it, but his voice
448
00:16:30,706 --> 00:16:33,554
and demeanor are comforting,
like a hot beverage.
449
00:16:33,557 --> 00:16:35,688
Let's get crazy and, once again,
450
00:16:35,690 --> 00:16:38,125
just pull it out, just
like we did the other one.
451
00:16:38,127 --> 00:16:39,561
Yawn.
452
00:16:39,563 --> 00:16:42,825
Barely touch, whisper.
453
00:16:42,827 --> 00:16:44,827
Just whisper light.
454
00:16:44,829 --> 00:16:46,307
Let it go.
455
00:16:46,309 --> 00:16:48,273
Let it go, no pressure.
456
00:16:48,276 --> 00:16:51,007
ADULT SHELDON: The yips
are a cruel mistress.
457
00:16:51,010 --> 00:16:54,315
But thanks to a magical
man with a halo of curls,
458
00:16:54,317 --> 00:16:58,473
I was finally able to relax
and get out of my own head.
459
00:16:58,476 --> 00:17:02,323
Instead of freezing up, I
thought about happy integers.
460
00:17:02,325 --> 00:17:04,847
Fluffy little formulas
461
00:17:04,849 --> 00:17:07,067
and a sweet Bessel
function that just wants me
462
00:17:07,069 --> 00:17:08,112
to do my very best.
463
00:17:08,114 --> 00:17:09,187
Done.
464
00:17:09,190 --> 00:17:11,020
Great, I can still
make my doubles match.
465
00:17:11,023 --> 00:17:12,379
Get out.
466
00:17:19,757 --> 00:17:21,384
- [crowd groaning]
- [sighs] Damn it.
467
00:17:21,387 --> 00:17:24,040
- Hold it. Time, time, time.
- UMPIRE: Time!
468
00:17:24,043 --> 00:17:25,867
I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
469
00:17:25,870 --> 00:17:27,914
Ah, don't worry about
it. It's not your fault.
470
00:17:27,916 --> 00:17:29,559
- It isn't?
- No, I'm the one
471
00:17:29,562 --> 00:17:32,049
that let a girl pitch. It's my mistake.
472
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:34,484
What? I've won so many games.
473
00:17:34,487 --> 00:17:35,791
Oh, that was then.
474
00:17:35,793 --> 00:17:37,630
Why are you being so mean?
475
00:17:37,633 --> 00:17:40,373
Well, why are you getting
so emotional, like women do?
476
00:17:40,376 --> 00:17:42,506
Maybe you ought to be a cheerleader.
477
00:17:42,509 --> 00:17:44,379
You trying to make me mad?
478
00:17:44,382 --> 00:17:45,888
- Is it working?
- Yeah.
479
00:17:45,890 --> 00:17:47,107
Well, I tell you what,
480
00:17:47,109 --> 00:17:49,414
picture my face in the catcher's mitt.
481
00:17:49,416 --> 00:17:50,415
What?
482
00:17:50,417 --> 00:17:51,894
Do I have to dumb it down for you?
483
00:17:51,896 --> 00:17:54,071
Just do what I tell you.
484
00:17:54,073 --> 00:17:55,552
[sighs]
485
00:17:56,553 --> 00:17:59,208
[spectators calling out]
486
00:18:00,775 --> 00:18:02,427
[grunts]
487
00:18:02,429 --> 00:18:04,385
- Strike!
- Yes!
488
00:18:04,387 --> 00:18:07,793
Aw, don't get all
hysterical, little girl!
489
00:18:07,796 --> 00:18:09,303
You suck!
490
00:18:09,305 --> 00:18:10,489
You suck!
491
00:18:10,492 --> 00:18:12,872
No! You suck!
492
00:18:12,874 --> 00:18:15,004
Strike!
493
00:18:15,006 --> 00:18:18,227
I am the leader of the little people.
494
00:18:20,453 --> 00:18:26,203
