00:00:02,503 --> 00:00:04,272
ADULT SHELDON: <i>While my sister
and I are twins,</i>

2
00:00:04,296 --> 00:00:06,048
<i>we've always been different.</i>

3
00:00:06,132 --> 00:00:08,968
<i>By the age of two,
I was reading books.</i>

4
00:00:09,051 --> 00:00:11,178
<i>Missy was content to eat them.</i>

5
00:00:11,262 --> 00:00:13,764
<i>By five, I had
a healthy appreciation</i>

6
00:00:13,848 --> 00:00:15,683
<i>for a well-organized
work space.</i>

7
00:00:16,392 --> 00:00:19,228
<i>My sister less so.</i>

8
00:00:19,311 --> 00:00:21,230
- [Missy giggles]
<i>- Which is not to say</i>

9
00:00:21,313 --> 00:00:23,065
<i>she doesn't have qualities I admire.</i>

10
00:00:23,149 --> 00:00:24,442
Get it. Get it.

11
00:00:24,525 --> 00:00:26,610
It's just a spider.
Calm down.

12
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:28,320
It's got eight
legs and fangs.

13
00:00:28,404 --> 00:00:30,156
I see no reason to be calm.
[thud]

14
00:00:30,239 --> 00:00:31,407
Did you kill it?

15
00:00:31,490 --> 00:00:33,576
- Yup.
- Are you sure?

16
00:00:33,659 --> 00:00:35,369
You tell me.
[yelling]

17
00:00:35,453 --> 00:00:39,165
<i>The bond between twins
is an incredibly close one,</i>

18
00:00:39,248 --> 00:00:41,917
<i>which is why I moved
1,500 miles to California</i>

19
00:00:42,001 --> 00:00:43,836
<i>the first chance I got.</i>

20
00:00:45,713 --> 00:00:48,549
<i>♪♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪♪</i>

21
00:00:48,632 --> 00:00:51,469
<i>♪♪ Yesterday I moved a mountain ♪♪</i>

22
00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:53,971
<i>♪♪ I bet I could be your hero ♪♪</i>

23
00:00:54,055 --> 00:00:56,348

24
00:00:56,432 --> 00:01:00,227
<i>♪♪ I am a mighty little man ♪♪</i>

25
00:01:03,773 --> 00:01:05,274
- Hey.
- Hello.

26
00:01:05,357 --> 00:01:06,358
You got a minute?

27
00:01:06,442 --> 00:01:08,362
John has something
he wants to talk to you about.

28
00:01:08,444 --> 00:01:09,987
I brought you kolaches.

29
00:01:10,071 --> 00:01:11,238
Ooh, yummy.

30
00:01:11,322 --> 00:01:12,948
Mmm. Mmm. [chuckles]

31
00:01:13,032 --> 00:01:14,492
So, what's up?

32
00:01:14,575 --> 00:01:16,595
You comin' to me to ask
for Connie's hand in marriage?

33
00:01:16,619 --> 00:01:18,079
No.

34
00:01:18,704 --> 00:01:20,956
But if that were
to come to pass,

35
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,001
are you authorized
to bless the union?

36
00:01:26,295 --> 00:01:27,630
He was joking.

37
00:01:27,713 --> 00:01:29,006
Oh.

38
00:01:30,091 --> 00:01:31,884
- Tell him.
- Okay.

39
00:01:31,967 --> 00:01:33,677
So, some colleagues of mine

40
00:01:33,761 --> 00:01:37,473
at the university are doing
a research study on twins.

41
00:01:37,556 --> 00:01:40,101
I told them about
Sheldon and his sister,

42
00:01:40,184 --> 00:01:42,186
and they were most intrigued.

43
00:01:42,269 --> 00:01:44,105
Uh, what kind of study?

44
00:01:44,188 --> 00:01:45,815
It's a longitudinal
investigation

45
00:01:45,898 --> 00:01:48,067
of environmental
and genetic factors

46
00:01:48,150 --> 00:01:51,153
in the development of cognitive
and other capacities

47
00:01:51,237 --> 00:01:54,406
in pairs of fraternal
and identical twins.

48
00:01:55,366 --> 00:01:56,867
You asked.

49
00:01:56,951 --> 00:02:00,079
[chuckles] Well, geez,
I don't... I don't know

50
00:02:00,162 --> 00:02:02,665
if I want some scientists
pokin' and proddin' the kids.

51
00:02:02,748 --> 00:02:04,226
Oh, but they wouldn't
be poked and prodded.

52
00:02:04,250 --> 00:02:06,919
They just have to, you know,
answer some questions.

53
00:02:07,002 --> 00:02:09,505
And maybe some
puzzles and tests.

54
00:02:10,131 --> 00:02:12,091
That's not too bad.
Where is it?

55
00:02:12,174 --> 00:02:14,301
- Houston.
- And it just got bad.

56
00:02:14,385 --> 00:02:16,345
That's... that's a long drive.

57
00:02:16,428 --> 00:02:20,015
It does pay $50 an hour
plus gas and expenses.

58
00:02:20,724 --> 00:02:21,809
Really?

59
00:02:21,892 --> 00:02:23,769
I told you to start with that.

60
00:02:24,478 --> 00:02:25,938
Oh.

61
00:02:28,190 --> 00:02:29,859
No. See, Mary,
that's the best part...

62
00:02:29,942 --> 00:02:32,278
there's no pokin'
and proddin'. Plus,

63
00:02:32,361 --> 00:02:34,613
you know how much
Sheldon loves puzzles and tests.

64
00:02:34,697 --> 00:02:36,323
I'm not sure.

65
00:02:36,407 --> 00:02:38,284
[sighs]
Think about the money.

66
00:02:38,367 --> 00:02:41,078
50 bucks an hour,
four or five hours a week.

67
00:02:41,162 --> 00:02:42,639
That... that's more
than our mortgage.

68
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:44,331
I know, I know.

69
00:02:44,415 --> 00:02:45,958
But Sheldon's already
self-conscious

70
00:02:46,041 --> 00:02:47,585
about being different
from other kids.

71
00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:49,461
I worry how this might
affect him.

72
00:02:49,545 --> 00:02:51,630
You're being too protective.
He's a rock.

73
00:02:51,714 --> 00:02:53,257
A rock?

74
00:02:53,340 --> 00:02:54,925
Are we raising
the same child?

75
00:02:55,009 --> 00:02:56,677
And what about Missy?

76
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,429
Aren't these tests gonna
make her feel bad

77
00:02:58,512 --> 00:03:00,014
that she's not
as smart as Sheldon?

78
00:03:00,097 --> 00:03:01,765
[snorts]
I'm not as smart as Sheldon.

79
00:03:01,849 --> 00:03:03,809
Doesn't make me feel bad.

80
00:03:03,893 --> 00:03:06,896
And we could put the money aside
for their college education.

81
00:03:07,938 --> 00:03:09,190
That's a good point.

82
00:03:09,273 --> 00:03:10,357
It's a great point.

83
00:03:10,441 --> 00:03:12,043
I don't have to tell you,
times are changing.

84
00:03:12,067 --> 00:03:13,569
Kids are pitching in.

85
00:03:13,652 --> 00:03:15,571
Like that Webster kid on TV...

86
00:03:15,654 --> 00:03:17,907
he's making buckets
of money for his parents.

87
00:03:19,116 --> 00:03:20,492
Well...

88
00:03:20,576 --> 00:03:22,203
I suppose we could
give it a try.

89
00:03:22,286 --> 00:03:24,121
There you go.
I'll call Sturgis,

90
00:03:24,205 --> 00:03:25,831
tell him we're in.

91
00:03:25,915 --> 00:03:28,125
Baby, I'm getting
a fishing boat.

92
00:03:31,462 --> 00:03:35,090
So, Sheldon, Missy,
we got some exciting news.

93
00:03:35,174 --> 00:03:37,468
- Georgie took a bath?
- No.

94
00:03:37,551 --> 00:03:39,303
And how come I don't get
exciting news?

95
00:03:39,386 --> 00:03:40,888
This isn't about you.

96
00:03:40,971 --> 00:03:43,307
But after dinner,
why don't you go rinse off?

97
00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:45,142
- So, what's up?
- Well,

98
00:03:45,226 --> 00:03:46,852
a couple of scientists
at the college

99
00:03:46,936 --> 00:03:48,312
where Dr. Sturgis teaches
are doing

100
00:03:48,395 --> 00:03:50,439
a research
study on twins.

101
00:03:50,522 --> 00:03:52,608
They want to meet you guys,
ask you some questions.

102
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:54,652
Oh, boy, a research study.

103
00:03:54,735 --> 00:03:56,015
Will they give us written tests?

104
00:03:56,070 --> 00:03:58,489
- Yeah, I think so.
- Oh, boy.

105
00:03:58,572 --> 00:04:01,659
Now, you don't have to
do this if you don't want to.

106
00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:02,993
It's purely volunteer.

107
00:04:03,077 --> 00:04:04,328
I don't want to do it.

108
00:04:04,411 --> 00:04:06,580
- Why not?
- They probably just want to find out

109
00:04:06,664 --> 00:04:09,333
why you're so smart
and I'm just average.

110
00:04:09,416 --> 00:04:12,378
[quietly] Average?
That's a little generous.

111
00:04:12,461 --> 00:04:13,879
Why don't they want
to test me?

112
00:04:13,963 --> 00:04:16,215
- Georgie, not now.
- 'Cause I'm available.

113
00:04:16,757 --> 00:04:18,235
Listen, why don't we
just go there this Saturday

114
00:04:18,259 --> 00:04:19,260
and give it a try?

115
00:04:19,343 --> 00:04:21,845
And if you don't like it,
we don't have to do it again.

116
00:04:21,929 --> 00:04:23,889
Or they'll love it,
and they'll do it till

117
00:04:23,973 --> 00:04:25,683
they're 18, 19 years old.

118
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:27,184
I already love it.

119
00:04:27,268 --> 00:04:29,603
My man. Missy?

120
00:04:32,106 --> 00:04:34,608
I believe there might be
a Dairy Queen on the way there.

121
00:04:35,943 --> 00:04:37,945
Can I get an Oreo Blizzard?

122
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:39,196
You know what I think?

123
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:41,740
I think you're smarter than him.

124
00:04:44,326 --> 00:04:46,829
Dr. Thorpe and Dr. Pilson,

125
00:04:46,912 --> 00:04:48,998
here are your
research volunteers,

126
00:04:49,081 --> 00:04:50,165
Sheldon and Missy.

127
00:04:50,249 --> 00:04:51,417
So nice to meet you.

128
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,752
Thank you for participating
in our study.

129
00:04:53,836 --> 00:04:56,588
Always happy to help advance
our understanding of me.

130
00:04:56,672 --> 00:04:58,215
I'm just in it
for the Dairy Queen.

131
00:04:58,757 --> 00:05:00,175
All right.

132
00:05:00,259 --> 00:05:02,052
Um, if you two wouldn't
mind waiting here,

133
00:05:02,136 --> 00:05:04,513
we'd like to start by talking
to your mom, dad, and grandma.

134
00:05:05,514 --> 00:05:06,765
Why?

135
00:05:06,849 --> 00:05:08,285
Just to get some
background information

136
00:05:08,309 --> 00:05:09,518
on the both of you.

137
00:05:09,601 --> 00:05:12,855
Smart. Ask how old I was
when I completed potty training.

138
00:05:12,938 --> 00:05:14,148
You won't believe it.

139
00:05:14,773 --> 00:05:16,525
I'll do that.

140
00:05:16,608 --> 00:05:18,777
Will you keep an eye on 'em?

141
00:05:18,861 --> 00:05:21,363
Well, I'll try, but
if they start running,

142
00:05:21,447 --> 00:05:22,549
you may never see them again.

143
00:05:22,573 --> 00:05:23,574
[laughs]

144
00:05:24,366 --> 00:05:25,659
Shall we?

145
00:05:27,953 --> 00:05:29,288
We are on the clock, right?

146
00:05:29,371 --> 00:05:30,706
- George.
- Hmm?

147
00:05:39,340 --> 00:05:42,217
[chuckles] Boy, this
brings back some memories.

148
00:05:42,301 --> 00:05:45,179
How come?
Well, when I was your age,

149
00:05:45,262 --> 00:05:48,432
I was also taken to a university
to be studied.

150
00:05:48,515 --> 00:05:50,768
Because they thought
you were really smart?

151
00:05:50,851 --> 00:05:54,271
Because they thought
I was clinically insane.

152
00:05:54,355 --> 00:05:56,398
And it wasn't just me.

153
00:05:56,482 --> 00:05:58,192
Did you know that
when Albert Einstein

154
00:05:58,275 --> 00:06:00,277
was a little boy,
his parents worried

155
00:06:00,361 --> 00:06:02,321
there was something
wrong with him?

156
00:06:02,404 --> 00:06:04,156
Because he couldn't
comb his hair?

157
00:06:04,239 --> 00:06:07,242
No, that was a choice
he made later in life.

158
00:06:07,326 --> 00:06:08,952
When he was young,

159
00:06:09,036 --> 00:06:11,914
he wanted nothing to do
with other children,

160
00:06:11,997 --> 00:06:15,501
and would often have

Well, to be perfectly honest,

Sheldon has always avoided
children his own age.

temper tantrums.

Yeah,

Nope.
She's very even-keeled.

Except for when she's eating.

Wechsler Intelligence Scale?

Yes.

Why?

214

If I've learned one thing
from school picture day,

215
00:08:23,170 --> 00:08:24,922
it's that I look better
from that side.

322
00:13:16,046 --> 00:13:18,131
I think they found
his kryptonite.

323
00:13:22,135 --> 00:13:25,597
Missy, what do you think
is happening in this picture?

324
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:26,848
The girl monkey on the couch

325
00:13:26,932 --> 00:13:28,433
is telling the
guy monkey a secret.

326
00:13:28,517 --> 00:13:31,186
Must be something juicy,
'cause he's smiling.

327
00:13:31,269 --> 00:13:32,521
Anything else?

328
00:13:32,604 --> 00:13:33,939
It might be dirty,

329
00:13:34,022 --> 00:13:35,166
'cause this girl monkey
is sending

330
00:13:35,190 --> 00:13:36,817
the kid monkey out of the room.

331
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:39,319
He doesn't want to go.
He looks sad.

332
00:13:39,402 --> 00:13:40,487
Is that all?

333
00:13:40,570 --> 00:13:42,405
The monkeys on the couch
are drinking tea,

334
00:13:42,489 --> 00:13:43,949
so it's a tea party.

335
00:13:44,032 --> 00:13:47,202
Okay, very good.
Let's look at another picture.

336
00:13:47,285 --> 00:13:50,622
I'm not done.
The monkey in the painting

337
00:13:50,705 --> 00:13:51,915
is wearing an old lady hat,

338
00:13:51,998 --> 00:13:53,917
so she's probably
a meemaw monkey.

339
00:13:54,751 --> 00:13:56,002
She's not
at the party,

340
00:13:56,086 --> 00:13:58,922
so she must be bowling or dead.

341
00:14:00,048 --> 00:14:02,884
Well, Missy
won that round.

342
00:14:02,968 --> 00:14:05,512
It's actually
not a contest, George.

343
00:14:05,595 --> 00:14:07,347
This is Texas.
Everything's a contest.

344
00:14:08,390 --> 00:14:09,933
<i>A woman in a doorway.</i>

345
00:14:10,016 --> 00:14:11,434
Anything else?

346
00:14:11,518 --> 00:14:13,603
She's holding her head
with her hand.

347
00:14:13,687 --> 00:14:15,522
And what do you think
that means?

348
00:14:15,605 --> 00:14:17,148
Um...

349
00:14:17,232 --> 00:14:20,026
Wouldn't you rather ask me
about trains going to St. Louis?

350
00:14:20,110 --> 00:14:23,238
Good gravy, she's sad,
Sheldon, come on.

351
00:14:23,864 --> 00:14:25,574
Oh, she's very upset.

352
00:14:25,657 --> 00:14:27,617
I don't know why.

353
00:14:27,701 --> 00:14:29,536
Oh! Maybe she wasn't invited

354
00:14:29,619 --> 00:14:31,454
to the tea party
at the monkey house.

355
00:14:31,538 --> 00:14:33,123
[chuckles]

356
00:14:33,206 --> 00:14:35,375
Also, she's wearing a belt,
like you are.

357
00:14:35,458 --> 00:14:37,294
Nice going.
Very cute.

358
00:14:39,004 --> 00:14:40,255
[no audible dialogue]

359
00:14:40,338 --> 00:14:41,756
And I'm loving the hair.

360
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,592
[whispers]
Yeah.

361
00:14:43,675 --> 00:14:46,261
A lion sitting in a chair,
holding a pipe.

362
00:14:46,344 --> 00:14:47,345
Good.

363
00:14:47,429 --> 00:14:49,556
But what do you think
is on his mind?

364
00:14:49,639 --> 00:14:51,474
How should I know?
Maybe he's wondering

365
00:14:51,558 --> 00:14:53,268
why he's posing
for a silly picture

366
00:14:53,351 --> 00:14:54,644
instead of eating a gazelle.

367
00:14:55,604 --> 00:14:56,646
PILSON:
<i>Anything else?</i>

368
00:14:57,522 --> 00:14:59,691
What exactly are we doing here?

369
00:14:59,774 --> 00:15:01,192
I thought the purpose
of this study

370
00:15:01,276 --> 00:15:03,194
was to find out how smart I am.

371
00:15:03,278 --> 00:15:05,071
PILSON:
<i>That's what we're doing,</i>

372
00:15:05,155 --> 00:15:06,955
but there are different kinds
of intelligence.

373
00:15:07,657 --> 00:15:08,783
Poppycock!

374
00:15:08,867 --> 00:15:10,052
<i>There's only one kind
of intelligence...</i>

375
00:15:10,076 --> 00:15:11,745
George, Sheldon's getting upset.

376
00:15:11,828 --> 00:15:13,038
I don't like it.

377
00:15:13,121 --> 00:15:14,881
All right, I'll just
change it back to Missy.

378
00:15:16,041 --> 00:15:18,418
You are an insightful
young lady.

379
00:15:18,501 --> 00:15:20,837
I don't know what that means,
but thank you.

380
00:15:20,921 --> 00:15:22,797
It means perceptive.

381
00:15:22,881 --> 00:15:24,841
You see things most people miss.

382
00:15:24,925 --> 00:15:27,218
My name is Missy... go figure.

383
00:15:28,178 --> 00:15:29,429
Have you always been that way?

384
00:15:29,512 --> 00:15:32,223
I guess so. I think when
you're on your own a lot,

385
00:15:32,307 --> 00:15:34,309
you get good at seeing
that kind of stuff.

386
00:15:34,392 --> 00:15:36,436
THORPE: <i>Really?</i>

387
00:15:36,519 --> 00:15:38,521
MISSY: My dad does football
with my older brother,

388
00:15:38,605 --> 00:15:40,440
so they're like a team.

389
00:15:41,441 --> 00:15:44,694
And my mom and meemaw spend all
their time fussing over Sheldon,

390
00:15:44,778 --> 00:15:46,571
so they're like a team, too.

391
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:48,865
So no one's on your team?

392
00:15:49,407 --> 00:15:51,785
Nope.
It's just me.

393
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:53,411
Oh, Lord.

394
00:15:54,704 --> 00:15:57,290
<i>Hey, what's up with you
and Dr. Pillsbury?</i>

395
00:15:58,375 --> 00:15:59,793
Dr. Pilson?

396
00:16:00,335 --> 00:16:02,712
I don't know what
you're talking about.

397
00:16:02,796 --> 00:16:04,047
Oh.

398
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:06,132
You can't say
'cause we're on camera.

399
00:16:06,841 --> 00:16:08,593
[sighs]

400
00:16:08,677 --> 00:16:10,887
<i>Insightful.</i>

401
00:16:16,685 --> 00:16:18,603
A little late for me
to start cooking.

402
00:16:18,687 --> 00:16:20,939
- Why don't we stop somewhere for dinner?
- Really?

403
00:16:21,022 --> 00:16:23,525
The five of us?
That's kind of pricey.

404
00:16:23,608 --> 00:16:26,820
Would you rather
buy a fishing boat?

405
00:16:26,903 --> 00:16:28,339
You're a blabbermouth,
you know that?

406
00:16:28,363 --> 00:16:29,948
[Meemaw laughs]

407
00:16:30,031 --> 00:16:32,117
Missy, we're gonna
eat in a restaurant.

408
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,451
Where would you
like to go?

409
00:16:33,535 --> 00:16:34,911
I get to pick?

410
00:16:34,995 --> 00:16:37,163
- Mm-hm?
- Why don't I get to pick?

411
00:16:37,247 --> 00:16:38,557
Because your sister's
getting to pick.

412
00:16:38,581 --> 00:16:40,458
It's not just about you
in this house.

413
00:16:41,459 --> 00:16:42,836
What do you think, baby?

414
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:44,546
I pick...

415
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:46,589
Red Lobster.

416
00:16:46,673 --> 00:16:48,425
You got it.

417
00:16:49,092 --> 00:16:50,510
Damn.

418
00:16:50,593 --> 00:16:52,053
There goes our per diem.

419
00:16:59,102 --> 00:17:01,730
ANNOUNCER: <i>Out of an
I formation, it's the option...</i>

420
00:17:01,813 --> 00:17:03,148
George, you got a minute?

421
00:17:03,231 --> 00:17:04,816
- What's up?
- Not you.

422
00:17:05,358 --> 00:17:07,402
- Him.
- What?

423
00:17:07,485 --> 00:17:09,988
Sheldon told me that we get paid
to go to that college

424
00:17:10,071 --> 00:17:11,573
and answer their questions.

425
00:17:12,198 --> 00:17:13,283
Yeah, so?

426
00:17:13,366 --> 00:17:15,618
I want to know
how much we're making.

427
00:17:16,494 --> 00:17:17,579
Why?

428
00:17:17,662 --> 00:17:19,122
'Cause I want my fair share.

429
00:17:19,748 --> 00:17:21,499
Is that so?

430
00:17:22,042 --> 00:17:23,877
What do you think
your fair share is?

431
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,086
Half.

432
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,214
Hm, guess that sounds right.

433
00:17:28,298 --> 00:17:29,799
So how much are we making?

434
00:17:30,550 --> 00:17:32,510
$7.50 a week.

435
00:17:32,594 --> 00:17:34,804
- Really?
- Really.

436
00:17:35,555 --> 00:17:36,973
Well, I want half that.

437
00:17:37,057 --> 00:17:38,224
Which is?

438
00:17:39,934 --> 00:17:41,144
Hang on.

439
00:17:41,978 --> 00:17:43,438
Sheldon!

440
00:17:44,147 --> 00:17:45,440
Can we put on <i>Soul Train?</i>

441
00:17:45,523 --> 00:17:46,733
Why?

442
00:17:46,816 --> 00:17:49,360
There's a girl on there
I kind of want to marry.
