I think he's dead.
362
00:13:40,614 --> 00:13:42,855
You have no idea how much it sucks
363
00:13:42,858 --> 00:13:44,516
to have a brother like him.
364
00:13:44,518 --> 00:13:46,585
Believe it or not, he's in my class.
365
00:13:46,587 --> 00:13:49,521
My parents sent Paige
to a private school.
366
00:13:49,523 --> 00:13:51,912
Cool. We're too poor for that.
367
00:13:55,863 --> 00:13:57,195
[SIGHS]
368
00:13:57,197 --> 00:14:00,530
Does Sheldon make you feel stupid?
369
00:14:00,533 --> 00:14:02,616
Nah, I'm smart in other ways.
370
00:14:02,619 --> 00:14:04,100
Me, too.
371
00:14:04,103 --> 00:14:05,936
Hey, I saw an old TV in the alley.
372
00:14:05,939 --> 00:14:07,339
Want to go throw rocks at it?
373
00:14:07,341 --> 00:14:08,273
- Cool!
- Hell yeah!
374
00:14:08,275 --> 00:14:09,508
Let's do it.
375
00:14:11,111 --> 00:14:13,078
We could play traditional chess.
376
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,050
Or if you're interested,
we could play a variant
377
00:14:15,053 --> 00:14:16,648
with a new piece I invented.
378
00:14:16,650 --> 00:14:17,949
That sounds fun.
379
00:14:17,951 --> 00:14:19,918
What's the new piece?
380
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,153
A wizard.
381
00:14:21,155 --> 00:14:23,191
The wizard cannot be
taken, and, at any point,
382
00:14:23,194 --> 00:14:26,491
he can teleport and switch
places with any other piece.
383
00:14:26,493 --> 00:14:28,491
Yes, but there's an obvious flaw.
384
00:14:28,494 --> 00:14:29,618
What flaw?
385
00:14:29,619 --> 00:14:31,563
Well, any time anyone is checkmated,
386
00:14:31,566 --> 00:14:34,206
they can simply have the wizard
and their king switch places.
387
00:14:34,209 --> 00:14:36,301
So the game will never end.
388
00:14:36,303 --> 00:14:39,171
I knew that. You passed my test.
389
00:14:40,459 --> 00:14:42,069
We told Paige that if she won
390
00:14:42,072 --> 00:14:44,075
the regional spelling
bee, she could get a puppy.
391
00:14:44,078 --> 00:14:45,339
We ended up with two,
392
00:14:45,342 --> 00:14:47,412
'cause she won twice. [CHUCKLES]
393
00:14:47,414 --> 00:14:49,303
[CHUCKLES]: Fun! That-That's fun.
394
00:14:50,651 --> 00:14:51,683
BARRY: All right,
395
00:14:51,685 --> 00:14:52,851
that's enough about Paige.
396
00:14:52,853 --> 00:14:54,920
So, George, I know you're
397
00:14:54,922 --> 00:14:56,154
a football coach.
398
00:14:56,156 --> 00:14:57,489
What about you, Mary?
399
00:14:57,491 --> 00:14:59,491
I work part-time at the church.
400
00:14:59,493 --> 00:15:00,592
- Oh.
- Oh, that's so nice.
401
00:15:00,594 --> 00:15:02,363
I used to work at the
practice with Barry,
402
00:15:02,366 --> 00:15:04,496
but I had to quit once Paige's schedule
403
00:15:04,498 --> 00:15:05,497
started to get busy.
404
00:15:05,499 --> 00:15:07,105
Well, that's understandable.
405
00:15:07,108 --> 00:15:10,035
A unique child can
require a lot of attention.
406
00:15:10,037 --> 00:15:10,902
[BARRY CHUCKLES]
407
00:15:10,904 --> 00:15:13,171
Mm. Try all the attention. Hmm?
408
00:15:13,174 --> 00:15:16,144
[CHUCKLES]: Okay. You know
that's not true, Barry. Well...
409
00:15:16,147 --> 00:15:17,476
[CHUCKLES] She's...
410
00:15:17,478 --> 00:15:18,610
she's right. It's not.
411
00:15:18,612 --> 00:15:20,679
Although I did spend Father's Day alone
412
00:15:20,681 --> 00:15:22,945
'cause she took Paige
to a robotics show.
413
00:15:22,948 --> 00:15:24,995
Okay. That's enough, Barry.
414
00:15:24,998 --> 00:15:26,522
They don't need to hear all this.
415
00:15:26,525 --> 00:15:27,710
- [CHUCKLES]
- GEORGE SR.: That's okay.
416
00:15:27,712 --> 00:15:29,228
[STAMMERS] That's why
we're getting together,
417
00:15:29,230 --> 00:15:30,229
you know, talk about
418
00:15:30,232 --> 00:15:31,764
this kind of stuff.
419
00:15:31,767 --> 00:15:34,634
Barry, it sounds like you
might be feeling left out.
420
00:15:34,637 --> 00:15:36,328
Oh. [CHUCKLES] No.
421
00:15:36,330 --> 00:15:37,329
[LAUGHS]
422
00:15:37,331 --> 00:15:38,830
Sometimes I do.
423
00:15:38,832 --> 00:15:40,799
And it's not just me. It's Erica, too.
424
00:15:40,801 --> 00:15:43,335
Oh, now he's just being dramatic.
425
00:15:43,337 --> 00:15:44,736
Erica gets a lot of attention,
426
00:15:44,738 --> 00:15:46,952
and she's just a joy. [CHUCKLES]
427
00:15:48,742 --> 00:15:50,976
Dang it, the screen won't break.
428
00:15:50,978 --> 00:15:52,889
Bet it'll break if we blow it up.
429
00:15:58,178 --> 00:16:00,287
[WHISPERS]: I love her.
430
00:16:00,290 --> 00:16:01,276
Fine, you're right.
431
00:16:01,279 --> 00:16:02,949
Erica's doing just great.
432
00:16:02,952 --> 00:16:04,589
Nothing to worry about there.

[CHUCKLES]
434
00:16:08,444 --> 00:16:10,162
ERICA: Oh, come on.
435
00:16:11,889 --> 00:16:13,732
You got any matches?
436
00:16:13,734 --> 00:16:15,033
Be right back.
437
00:16:20,069 --> 00:16:21,967
While she's gone, you want to make out?
438
00:16:22,876 --> 00:16:23,909
Sure.
439
00:16:25,264 --> 00:16:27,779
You actually believe in
the multiverse theory?
440
00:16:27,781 --> 00:16:29,105
Very much so.
441
00:16:29,108 --> 00:16:30,699
It's the most elegant interpretation
442
00:16:30,702 --> 00:16:32,484
of quantum mechanics.
443
00:16:32,486 --> 00:16:36,021
So you really think there are
an infinite number of universes?
444
00:16:36,023 --> 00:16:38,924
Stephen Hawking believes
it, so, yes, I do.
445
00:16:38,926 --> 00:16:42,464
Well, if there are an
infinite number of universes,
446
00:16:42,467 --> 00:16:44,863
I think that theory's
dumb in all of them.
447
00:16:44,865 --> 00:16:47,265
[CHUCKLES]
448
00:16:47,267 --> 00:16:48,500
This is fun.
449
00:16:48,502 --> 00:16:50,168

discussions like this

00:16:52,906 --> 00:16:55,162
No.

00:17:02,382 --> 00:17:05,484
Do you ever wish you were
just like everyone else?
454
00:17:06,752 --> 00:17:08,284
Not at all.
455
00:17:08,287 --> 00:17:09,788
[CHUCKLES] Me neither.

than everyone. [CHUCKLES]

ADULT SHELDON: I started
to think that Paige and I
459
00:17:15,796 --> 00:17:17,963
might have more in
common than I thought.
460
00:17:17,965 --> 00:17:19,589
Maybe my mother was right.
461
00:17:19,592 --> 00:17:23,001
I really did just need to
get to know her better.

know if ten-year-old Spock

ever flipped a chess board,

Don't you... Go out there and check!
481
00:18:07,202 --> 00:18:10,375
Now, does anyone know
what happens to quarks
482
00:18:10,378 --> 00:18:11,519
when we combine them
483
00:18:11,522 --> 00:18:14,241
to make mesons and baryons?

00:18:15,450 --> 00:18:17,049
Yes, Paige.
485
00:18:17,051 --> 00:18:18,718
We can ignore the particle masses
486
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,381
at the individual quark level.
487
00:18:20,384 --> 00:18:21,897
Correct.
