00:15:04,061 --> 00:15:06,269
ADULT SHELDON: I don't
know if other supervillains
364
00:15:06,272 --> 00:15:09,324
started their careers
by getting out of P.E.,
365
00:15:09,327 --> 00:15:11,046
but that's where I began.
366
00:15:11,048 --> 00:15:13,682
Emboldened by my faux hernia,
367
00:15:13,684 --> 00:15:16,332
I started taking books
out of the library...
368
00:15:16,335 --> 00:15:19,389
without getting the cards stamped.
369
00:15:19,392 --> 00:15:21,056
You didn't check out those books.
370
00:15:21,058 --> 00:15:22,491
I know.
371
00:15:22,493 --> 00:15:24,626
Before you judge me too harshly,
372
00:15:24,628 --> 00:15:26,695
I always brought them back on time.
373
00:15:26,697 --> 00:15:29,765
I was a rule-breaker, not a lunatic.
374
00:15:29,767 --> 00:15:32,734
But perhaps my most
satisfying transgression
375
00:15:32,736 --> 00:15:34,639
was duping my sister
376
00:15:34,642 --> 00:15:37,777
into relinquishing control of the TV.
377
00:15:39,343 --> 00:15:40,609
Hello.
378
00:15:40,611 --> 00:15:42,611
What's that for?
379
00:15:42,613 --> 00:15:46,415
Oh, this? I was just digging
for money in Meemaw's backyard.
380
00:15:46,417 --> 00:15:48,217
There's money there?
381
00:15:48,219 --> 00:15:50,819
Oh, yes. I already found 75 cents.
382
00:15:50,821 --> 00:15:52,621
Who do you think left it?
383
00:15:52,623 --> 00:15:54,356
If I were to guess,
384
00:15:54,358 --> 00:15:56,458
I'd say pirates with
holes in their pockets.
385
00:15:56,460 --> 00:15:58,827
Can I use your shovel?
386
00:15:58,829 --> 00:16:01,296
Be my guest.

You have a good one, George.
395
00:16:20,818 --> 00:16:22,518
Hey, how's your son doing?
396
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:23,785
Georgie?
397
00:16:23,788 --> 00:16:26,755
No, the smart one.
398
00:16:26,757 --> 00:16:28,390
He's fine. Why?
399
00:16:28,392 --> 00:16:30,159
What about the hernia?
400
00:16:30,161 --> 00:16:31,483
What hernia?
401
00:16:31,486 --> 00:16:33,520
The one your wife said he had.
402
00:16:36,991 --> 00:16:38,867
Happened to me while I was in the Army.
403
00:16:38,869 --> 00:16:42,871
I was in a bar in Georgia,
tried to lift up this big gal.
404
00:16:42,873 --> 00:16:45,241
Swear I could hear
something pop down there.
405
00:16:45,244 --> 00:16:46,773
Sheldon gave you this note?
406
00:16:46,776 --> 00:16:48,009
Yeah.
407
00:16:48,012 --> 00:16:49,411
I didn't write this.
408
00:16:49,413 --> 00:16:50,712
You sure?
409
00:16:50,714 --> 00:16:52,014
Looks like your handwriting.
410
00:16:52,016 --> 00:16:53,505
It's got that little
swoopy thing going on.
411
00:16:53,507 --> 00:16:54,516
I didn't write it.
412
00:16:54,518 --> 00:16:57,199
And I think I'd know
if my son had a hernia.
413
00:16:57,202 --> 00:17:00,347
So what, Sheldon forged a
letter to get out of P.E.?
414
00:17:00,350 --> 00:17:01,957
Looks like it.
415
00:17:01,959 --> 00:17:03,625
How about that.
416
00:17:03,627 --> 00:17:06,139
Don't be proud of him.
417
00:17:06,142 --> 00:17:07,262
Can't help it.
418
00:17:07,264 --> 00:17:09,131

00:17:11,424 --> 00:17:14,069
what's gotten into him?

00:17:14,071 --> 00:17:15,437

MARY: Sheldon.
435
00:17:46,184 --> 00:17:48,147
Would you like to explain this note?

00:17:50,441 --> 00:17:51,540
Well?
437
00:17:51,542 --> 00:17:53,809
I was trying to be more like Georgie.
438
00:17:53,811 --> 00:17:55,210
That's a dumb idea.
439
00:17:55,212 --> 00:17:57,913
We don't want Georgie
to be like Georgie.
440
00:17:57,915 --> 00:18:01,817
Well, let me start by
saying how very sorry I am.
441
00:18:07,118 --> 00:18:08,963
ADULT SHELDON: Despite my explanation
442
00:18:08,966 --> 00:18:11,790
that I was embracing my inner Kirk,
443
00:18:11,792 --> 00:18:15,393
my mother had me make
amends for all my misdeeds.
444
00:18:15,395 --> 00:18:17,162
Starting in the library,
445
00:18:17,164 --> 00:18:20,765
where I had to reshelve
hundreds of books.
446
00:18:20,767 --> 00:18:23,368
Well, to be honest, that one was a hoot.
447
00:18:23,370 --> 00:18:27,972
The amends got worse when Coach
Wilkins made me climb the rope.
448
00:18:27,974 --> 00:18:30,208
Lacking any upper body strength,
449
00:18:30,210 --> 00:18:33,749
I hung there like a
salami in a deli window.
450
00:18:33,752 --> 00:18:37,482
And finally, I had to
apologize to my meemaw,
451
00:18:37,484 --> 00:18:41,609
who was an unfortunate victim
of my sister's treasure hunt.
