1
00:00:02,711 --> 00:00:05,670
A simile directly compares
two things,

2
00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:08,589
using the words "like" and "as."

3
00:00:09,051 --> 00:00:10,633
<i>"I slept
like a log."</i>

4
00:00:11,011 --> 00:00:12,843
"I'm hungry as a horse."

5
00:00:13,430 --> 00:00:15,171
"Your love is like
bad medicine."

6
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:16,301
Exactly.

7
00:00:16,517 --> 00:00:17,633
That's Bon Jovi.

8
00:00:18,477 --> 00:00:19,137
Okay.

9
00:00:19,353 --> 00:00:20,844
His hair is awesome.

10
00:00:21,313 --> 00:00:22,053
<i>Moving on.</i>

11
00:00:22,272 --> 00:00:25,140
Metaphors are different
from similes.

12
00:00:27,945 --> 00:00:30,153
<i>I've been called a germophobe,</i>

13
00:00:30,364 --> 00:00:33,448
<i>but I do find
a single sneeze acceptable.</i>

14
00:00:33,659 --> 00:00:35,776
<i>It could be caused
by dust, allergies...</i>

15
00:00:35,994 --> 00:00:38,953
<i>really, whatever nasal irritant
floats your boat.</i>

16
00:00:39,331 --> 00:00:40,367
<i>However...</i>

17
00:00:41,124 --> 00:00:42,911
<i>during flu season...</i>

18
00:00:46,588 --> 00:00:48,796
<i>...a second sneeze means
a plague is upon the land,</i>

19
00:00:49,007 --> 00:00:50,589
<i>and it's every man for himself.</i>

20
00:00:52,594 --> 00:00:54,005
Where do you think
you're going?

21
00:00:54,471 --> 00:00:55,507
Away from you.

22
00:00:55,722 --> 00:00:56,587
Why's that?

23
00:00:57,099 --> 00:00:58,260
I want to live.

24
00:00:58,475 --> 00:01:01,309
I'm not sick.
Get back in your seat.

25
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,476
No, thank you.

26
00:01:02,938 --> 00:01:04,520
You know the rules.

27
00:01:04,731 --> 00:01:06,563
You can't leave
without a hall pass.

28
00:01:07,276 --> 00:01:08,812
May I have a hall pass?

29
00:01:09,027 --> 00:01:10,108
No, you may not.

30
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:11,936
Now get back in your seat.

31
00:01:12,656 --> 00:01:14,693
<i>Rules
are the pillars of society.</i>

32
00:01:14,908 --> 00:01:15,989
<i>I love rules.</i>

33
00:01:16,201 --> 00:01:18,193
<i>But what benefit are rules
to a dead man?</i>

34
00:01:44,980 --> 00:01:46,141
Excuse me.

35
00:01:46,815 --> 00:01:49,307
Do I look like
I'm getting sick to you?

36
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:51,646
You look a little pale.

37
00:01:51,987 --> 00:01:53,523
Okay, good, that's normal.

38
00:01:54,489 --> 00:01:57,778
Now, I understand Sheldon
is an exceptional child,

39
00:01:57,993 --> 00:01:59,200
<i>all right,
but when he</i>

40
00:01:59,411 --> 00:02:01,073
willfully disobeys
the order of a teacher,

41
00:02:01,288 --> 00:02:03,280
there needs
to be some consequences here.

42
00:02:03,665 --> 00:02:05,327
Oh, we couldn't
agree more.

43
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:07,033
What kind of punishment
are you thinking?

44
00:02:07,794 --> 00:02:10,662
Well, Mary, in a case like this,
a few days of detention.

45
00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:12,622
Really? That seems
a little harsh.

46
00:02:12,841 --> 00:02:14,707
Oh, detention's
no big deal.

47
00:02:14,926 --> 00:02:18,260
Now, my principal used to
whup my ass with a paddle.

48
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:19,720
<i>That got
my attention.</i>

49
00:02:19,931 --> 00:02:22,218
Oh, yeah.
Those were the days.

50
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:24,266
Still have mine.

51
00:02:25,937 --> 00:02:27,178
Ah.

52
00:02:29,191 --> 00:02:30,272
Ol' Spanky.

53
00:02:30,525 --> 00:02:31,515
Whoa.

54
00:02:32,611 --> 00:02:35,479
- Got a real nice grip on that thing.
- Yeah, George.

55
00:02:35,697 --> 00:02:38,030
Had the equipment manager over
at the Astros make this for me.

56
00:02:38,825 --> 00:02:40,157
The holes in it...

57
00:02:40,994 --> 00:02:42,576
cut down on wind resistance.

58
00:02:42,871 --> 00:02:43,531
Smart.

59
00:02:44,039 --> 00:02:46,577
But these days you have
to have a consent form

60
00:02:46,792 --> 00:02:48,499
to whack the kids.

61
00:02:49,878 --> 00:02:51,369
I don't know
where this world's headed.

62
00:02:51,713 --> 00:02:53,830
You ought to get one of those
for when Georgie acts up.

63
00:02:55,008 --> 00:02:56,624
Like you never thought
about going upside his head

64
00:02:56,843 --> 00:02:57,799
with a slab of wood.

65
00:02:59,388 --> 00:03:02,301
You know, there was a time
this thing gave me tennis elbow.

66
00:03:16,655 --> 00:03:18,146
Okay, Sheldon, come o...

67
00:03:20,242 --> 00:03:21,107
<i>Where'd he go?</i>

68
00:03:21,910 --> 00:03:22,650
Thataway.

69
00:03:51,356 --> 00:03:52,392
What you
doing, kid?!

70
00:03:58,530 --> 00:04:00,396
<i>Enjoy this. It is, by far,</i>

71
00:04:00,615 --> 00:04:03,198
<i>the most athletic two minutes
of my entire life.</i>

72
00:04:11,543 --> 00:04:12,533
It's not funny.

73
00:04:12,753 --> 00:04:13,709
Oh, come on, now.

74
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,833
Sheldon in detention...
that's funny.

75
00:04:17,466 --> 00:04:18,877
<i>I actually think
it'd be good for him.</i>

76
00:04:19,092 --> 00:04:20,708
He needs to learn
he's not special.

77
00:04:21,094 --> 00:04:22,426
But he <i>is</i> special.

78
00:04:22,637 --> 00:04:24,503
You know what I mean.
He can't just

79
00:04:24,723 --> 00:04:26,635
walk out of a classroom
'cause he feels like it.

80
00:04:26,850 --> 00:04:28,216
He was worried
about catching a cold.

81
00:04:28,435 --> 00:04:30,176
That is a legitimate concern.

82
00:04:30,395 --> 00:04:32,307
And now he's in danger
of being mugged

83
00:04:32,522 --> 00:04:34,434
by a roomful of hoodlums.

84
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:36,481
He's not getting mugged.

85
00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:38,229
It's half a dozen kids
doing homework

86
00:04:38,445 --> 00:04:39,606
while a teacher watches 'em.

87
00:04:39,821 --> 00:04:42,029
Although it might not hurt
to give Sheldon a few dollars

88
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,027
to buy himself
some protection.

89
00:04:45,243 --> 00:04:46,734
That's actually not a bad idea.

90
00:04:54,669 --> 00:04:55,534
What are you doing?

91
00:04:56,046 --> 00:04:56,877
Nothing.

92
00:04:57,714 --> 00:04:59,455
Is that
chewing tobacco?

93
00:04:59,674 --> 00:05:02,041
It's chocolate Bazooka.
What do you want?

94
00:05:02,636 --> 00:05:03,877
I have detention tomorrow,

95
00:05:04,095 --> 00:05:06,052
and I thought you could
give me some tips.

96
00:05:06,264 --> 00:05:08,756
That was pretty badass, you
walking out of class like that.

97
00:05:09,017 --> 00:05:12,351
It was not my intention to be
bad "A" word, but thank you.

98
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:15,229
The only thing you need
to worry about in detention

99
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,976
is staying close
to the teacher.

100
00:05:17,192 --> 00:05:19,525
If he leaves the room,
you go with him.

101
00:05:20,195 --> 00:05:20,855
Why?

102
00:05:21,154 --> 00:05:23,521
'Cause you're gonna
get your "A" word kicked.

103
00:05:24,032 --> 00:05:26,695
Are you saying I'll be
in physical danger?

104
00:05:26,910 --> 00:05:28,776
It's all the worst kids
in school

105
00:05:29,037 --> 00:05:30,153
in one room for an hour.

106
00:05:30,372 --> 00:05:32,159
What do you think's
gonna happen?

107
00:05:32,749 --> 00:05:34,832
I thought we were gonna spend
the time regretting our actions

108
00:05:35,043 --> 00:05:37,877
and thinking about how we could
be better in the future.

109
00:05:38,213 --> 00:05:40,205
Well, you thought wrong.
Get lost.

110
00:05:41,216 --> 00:05:43,048
You're both mean
and nice to me.

111
00:05:43,260 --> 00:05:45,092
It's confusing.

112
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,227
Maybe I'm doing this wrong.

113
00:06:00,819 --> 00:06:02,902
Have you ever been in detention?

114
00:06:03,697 --> 00:06:04,608
No.

115
00:06:05,282 --> 00:06:06,614
But I do take
the school bus.

116
00:06:07,242 --> 00:06:08,653
And that is no party.

117
00:06:09,077 --> 00:06:11,410
It's like a mental hospital
on wheels.

118
00:06:11,872 --> 00:06:13,488
That's a good use of simile.

119
00:06:14,165 --> 00:06:15,121
Thanks.

120
00:06:15,333 --> 00:06:16,824
Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

121
00:06:21,756 --> 00:06:22,496
I hope.

122
00:06:32,767 --> 00:06:35,760
Hello. I'm here
for detention.

123
00:06:36,855 --> 00:06:38,471
Where is the teacher?

124
00:06:39,858 --> 00:06:41,224
Not here yet.

125
00:06:42,193 --> 00:06:42,979
Oh.

126
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:50,157
I have three dollars.

127
00:06:50,368 --> 00:06:51,859
Feel free to share it
with the others.

128
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:04,004
Would you prefer
a piece of paper?

129
00:07:04,215 --> 00:07:06,002
I have some
in my briefcase.

130
00:07:07,886 --> 00:07:09,422
It's here
if you change your mind.

131
00:07:09,638 --> 00:07:11,846
All right, losers,
you know how this works.

132
00:07:12,057 --> 00:07:14,219
One hour, no talking,
no horseplay.

133
00:07:14,851 --> 00:07:15,466
Sheldon?

134
00:07:15,685 --> 00:07:17,176
Hello, Mr. Givens.

135
00:07:17,562 --> 00:07:18,473
Why are you here?

136
00:07:18,688 --> 00:07:20,850
I didn't want to catch a cold
from Ms. MacElroy,

137
00:07:21,066 --> 00:07:23,479
so I left her classroom
without a hall pass.

138
00:07:23,693 --> 00:07:26,185
Well, something <i>is</i> going around.

139
00:07:26,404 --> 00:07:28,316
I actually had a little tickle
in my throat.

140
00:07:28,865 --> 00:07:30,948
Okay, time to go.
Nice meeting you.

141
00:07:31,159 --> 00:07:32,366
Whoa, what-what are you doing?

142
00:07:32,744 --> 00:07:34,155
You've heard of
fight or flight?

143
00:07:34,496 --> 00:07:35,782
This is flight.

144
00:07:38,750 --> 00:07:40,036
Not so funny
now, is it?

145
00:07:40,251 --> 00:07:42,618
No. How long
is he suspended for?

146
00:07:42,837 --> 00:07:43,793
A week.

147
00:07:44,005 --> 00:07:45,462
And it goes on
his permanent record.

148
00:07:45,674 --> 00:07:47,290
<i>Well, that's
no big deal.</i>

149
00:07:47,509 --> 00:07:50,718
I had all kinds of stuff on my
permanent high school record.

150
00:07:50,929 --> 00:07:54,138
Didn't stop me from being
a bartender for eight years.

151
00:07:54,349 --> 00:07:57,183
I think the real issue we need
to deal with is his germ phobia.

152
00:07:57,477 --> 00:07:58,092
<i>Oh, yes,
you don't</i>

153
00:07:58,311 --> 00:08:00,098
want him turning
into Howard Hughes.

154
00:08:00,313 --> 00:08:02,054
Growing his nails out.

155
00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:03,731
Peeing in a jar.

156
00:08:04,317 --> 00:08:06,775
Why would he pee into a jar?
I don't know why he peed in a jar,

157
00:08:06,987 --> 00:08:08,649
I just know he did.

158
00:08:09,364 --> 00:08:10,354
I hate to say it,

159
00:08:10,573 --> 00:08:12,405
but I think
we need help with this.

160
00:08:12,784 --> 00:08:13,865
- Like what?
<i>- Maybe we could</i>

161
00:08:14,077 --> 00:08:16,319
take him to that nice doctor
who calmed him down

162
00:08:16,538 --> 00:08:18,780
when he was convinced
he had an enlarged prostate?

163
00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:20,365
Sheldon only calmed down
when the doctor told him

164
00:08:20,583 --> 00:08:22,415
what happens in a prostate exam.

165
00:08:23,044 --> 00:08:23,909
Poor thing.

166
00:08:24,129 --> 00:08:25,836
Still talks about it.

167
00:08:29,092 --> 00:08:30,754
<i>Thank you for seeing us,
Doctor.</i>

168
00:08:31,011 --> 00:08:31,717
No problem.

169
00:08:32,554 --> 00:08:35,217
So, what do you got today,
Sheldon?

170
00:08:35,557 --> 00:08:37,423
Rickets?
Rabies?

171
00:08:37,642 --> 00:08:39,474
Early-onset menopause?

172
00:08:40,437 --> 00:08:41,553
Is he making a joke?

173
00:08:41,771 --> 00:08:42,887
I believe so.

174
00:08:43,106 --> 00:08:44,062
Humorous.

175
00:08:44,274 --> 00:08:46,186
- Hmm.
- Sheldon's not sick,

176
00:08:46,401 --> 00:08:48,984
but he has become overly
concerned with getting a cold

177
00:08:49,195 --> 00:08:51,187
<i>- or the flu.</i>
- Well, any symptoms...

178
00:08:51,406 --> 00:08:52,817
runny nose, achy,

179
00:08:53,033 --> 00:08:54,945
- sore throat, fever?
- No.

180
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,073
All right, well, Sheldon,
if you do catch a cold,

181
00:08:58,288 --> 00:09:01,656
or even the flu, it's...
it's not the end of the world.

182
00:09:02,208 --> 00:09:04,746
The flu was the end of the world
for half a million Americans

183
00:09:04,961 --> 00:09:07,954
during the influenza epidemic
of 1918.

184
00:09:08,214 --> 00:09:09,204
- Really?
<i>- In India</i>

185
00:09:09,632 --> 00:09:11,464
17 million people died.

186
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:13,838
Okay, I think we're getting
off the subject. Doctor,

187
00:09:14,054 --> 00:09:15,386
<i>Sheldon is afraid
to go to school</i>

188
00:09:15,597 --> 00:09:16,713
because he might get exposed

189
00:09:16,931 --> 00:09:19,298
to some kind of bacteria
or virus.

190
00:09:19,517 --> 00:09:21,474
So he's got a phobia?

191
00:09:21,686 --> 00:09:23,643
It's not a phobia
if the threat is real.

192
00:09:24,064 --> 00:09:25,600
You're a doctor,
you should know that.

193
00:09:26,775 --> 00:09:29,734
Sheldon, you have
nothing to worry about.

194
00:09:29,944 --> 00:09:31,651
Even if you did get the flu,

195
00:09:31,863 --> 00:09:33,399
it's usually over in a week.

196
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:37,112
Why are we getting medical
advice from a man who smokes?

197
00:09:37,327 --> 00:09:38,568
<i>Sheldon.
O-Okay,</i>

198
00:09:38,787 --> 00:09:41,245
I have patients
who are actually sick.

199
00:09:42,082 --> 00:09:43,323
Maybe we should wrap this up.

200
00:09:43,541 --> 00:09:45,703
How come you don't
get sick all the time?

201
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:47,410
Well, I take precautions.

202
00:09:47,629 --> 00:09:50,463
I wash my hands,
I wear gloves and a mask.

203
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:04,351
So, Mom, how was your day?

204
00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:08,184
We're ignoring this?

205
00:10:09,484 --> 00:10:10,645
Okay.

206
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:21,527
So pretty.

207
00:10:22,122 --> 00:10:23,784
What's going on?

208
00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:26,449
I'm not feeling so good.

209
00:10:27,961 --> 00:10:30,328
Biohazard! Biohazard!

210
00:10:31,172 --> 00:10:32,253
Sucker.

211
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:34,585
In national news,

212
00:10:34,801 --> 00:10:38,636
<i>an unusually early flu season
is buffeting the country.</i>

213
00:10:38,847 --> 00:10:41,760
<i>Doctors say the strain,
originating in China,</i>

214
00:10:41,975 --> 00:10:44,137
<i>is particularly severe.</i>

215
00:10:44,352 --> 00:10:48,642
<i>Children and the elderly
are most at risk.</i>

216
00:10:48,857 --> 00:10:51,019
Sheldon, why are
you still up?

217
00:10:51,234 --> 00:10:53,021
We're all gonna die!

218
00:10:53,236 --> 00:10:54,317
<i>...about the local cattle...</i>

219
00:10:54,529 --> 00:10:55,440
This isn't funny!

220
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:58,272
I know, baby, I know.

221
00:10:58,658 --> 00:11:01,571
But you need to
understand that sometimes

222
00:11:01,786 --> 00:11:04,153
the news says those things
just to scare people.

223
00:11:04,539 --> 00:11:05,825
Well, it's working!

224
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:06,746
Come here.

225
00:11:06,958 --> 00:11:08,369
I know you don't
believe in this,

226
00:11:08,585 --> 00:11:10,326
but I'm gonna
do it anyway.

227
00:11:12,422 --> 00:11:14,960
Lord, I pray for
my son Sheldon

228
00:11:15,175 --> 00:11:18,043
that you protect him from
all illness and disease,

229
00:11:18,386 --> 00:11:20,844
and keep him healthy
and keep him safe,

230
00:11:21,055 --> 00:11:23,763
and protect him from
his head to his toes,

231
00:11:23,975 --> 00:11:26,388
inside and out. Amen.

232
00:11:28,438 --> 00:11:30,930
You're right.
I don't believe in that.

233
00:11:32,984 --> 00:11:36,352
But it did feel good. Thanks.

234
00:11:37,322 --> 00:11:39,735
In the Bible, that's called
a hedge of protection.

235
00:11:42,285 --> 00:11:43,947
Why do you keep smiling?

236
00:11:44,162 --> 00:11:46,245
You need to look
at your mask, baby.

237
00:11:49,834 --> 00:11:50,870
<i>Missy?!</i>

238
00:11:54,380 --> 00:11:55,996
We have to go to school,
and Sheldon doesn't?

239
00:11:56,216 --> 00:11:57,832
- That's not fair.
<i>- Sure it is.</i>

240
00:11:58,051 --> 00:11:59,883
Sheldon loves school
and can't go.

241
00:12:00,094 --> 00:12:02,211
You hate school
and have to. Fair.

242
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:04,046
<i>He still has</i>

243
00:12:04,265 --> 00:12:05,551
to spend his day doing chores.

244
00:12:05,767 --> 00:12:07,508
Can't sit around
playing with his trains.

245
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:09,969
Yeah, put him to work.
Good parenting, Dad.

246
00:12:10,188 --> 00:12:11,554
Oh, I'm glad you approve.

247
00:12:11,773 --> 00:12:12,684
I do.

248
00:12:14,776 --> 00:12:15,562
Where you going?

249
00:12:16,152 --> 00:12:17,643
I'm gonna give Sheldon
a list of chores.

250
00:12:18,488 --> 00:12:19,729
You're actually
taking my advice?

251
00:12:19,989 --> 00:12:20,729
Yes.

252
00:12:20,949 --> 00:12:22,065
Well, how about that?

253
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:24,692
Hey, you were due.

254
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,321
Proud of you, George.

255
00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:38,254
Sheldon?

256
00:12:39,259 --> 00:12:39,999
<i>Yes.</i>

257
00:12:40,343 --> 00:12:42,130
The door's locked.
Can you open it?

258
00:12:43,513 --> 00:12:44,503
No.

259
00:12:45,348 --> 00:12:46,634
What on earth?

260
00:12:58,319 --> 00:12:59,901
- Hello.
- What are you doing?

261
00:13:00,363 --> 00:13:02,901
I made a real germ-proof
hedge of protection.

262
00:13:03,116 --> 00:13:05,779
Oh, honey,
you can't stay in there.

263
00:13:05,994 --> 00:13:08,907
I've got a refrigerator,
I've got my sleeping bag,

264
00:13:09,122 --> 00:13:11,705
and anything else I need
I can make out of Legos.

265
00:13:12,709 --> 00:13:14,496
What's with
the Halloween costume?

266
00:13:17,463 --> 00:13:19,500
In case of a breach.

267
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:22,757
Stay right there.

268
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:24,130
That's my plan.

269
00:13:24,345 --> 00:13:25,381
George?

270
00:13:31,269 --> 00:13:32,476
Just when you think
he's gonna zig,

271
00:13:32,687 --> 00:13:34,269
you get
a big old zag.

272
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,437
It's ridiculous. I'm...
I'm gonna take it down.

273
00:13:36,649 --> 00:13:38,811
No, you can't force him out
of a phobia.

274
00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:39,725
<i>What do we do?</i>

275
00:13:39,944 --> 00:13:40,775
He can't live
in there.

276
00:13:40,987 --> 00:13:42,319
Well, actually, he can.

277
00:13:42,530 --> 00:13:44,396
He's got the refrigerator
and a sleeping bag.

278
00:13:44,615 --> 00:13:46,777
And he can always
go potty in the sink.

279
00:13:48,202 --> 00:13:49,909
I think I'll take
the kids to school.

280
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:52,280
I'm sure he'll be out
by the time you get home.

281
00:13:52,498 --> 00:13:54,831
Not sure why you
think that, but okay.

282
00:13:55,418 --> 00:13:57,034
- Mom?
- Yes, Shelly.

283
00:13:57,253 --> 00:13:58,334
Can you close the door?

284
00:13:58,546 --> 00:14:00,378
I need to use the sink.

285
00:14:06,929 --> 00:14:08,670
- Tammy Cook?
<i>- Here.</i>

286
00:14:08,890 --> 00:14:11,177
<i>- Georgie Cooper?</i>
- Here.

287
00:14:11,392 --> 00:14:13,805
Sheldon Cooper? Absent.

288
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,261
- Where's your brother?
- Home.

289
00:14:16,481 --> 00:14:17,346
Is he okay?

290
00:14:17,565 --> 00:14:18,351
Yeah, he's just...

291
00:14:19,817 --> 00:14:22,605
Actually, it's not
looking good for him.

292
00:14:22,820 --> 00:14:24,186
He might not make it.

293
00:14:24,405 --> 00:14:27,022
- Oh, that's terrible.
- I know.

294
00:14:27,408 --> 00:14:29,070
I love him so much.

295
00:14:29,369 --> 00:14:33,079
If anything ever happened,
I don't know what I'd do.

296
00:14:33,748 --> 00:14:34,613
Aw.

297
00:14:42,048 --> 00:14:43,038
<i>Shelly, if you don't mind</i>

298
00:14:43,257 --> 00:14:46,091
- me asking, what's your long-term plan here?
- I'm working

299
00:14:46,302 --> 00:14:47,838
on the math to turn the garage

300
00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:50,171
into a self-sustaining
ecosystem.

301
00:14:50,390 --> 00:14:52,882
- Okay. And what exactly does that mean?<i>
- Well, all I need</i>

302
00:14:53,101 --> 00:14:55,764
is sunlight and a few seeds
to grow unlimited food

303
00:14:55,978 --> 00:14:58,311
which I'll fertilize
with my own feces.

304
00:14:58,523 --> 00:15:00,560
This just gets better.

305
00:15:00,775 --> 00:15:02,562
If you're not gonna
help, please go inside.

306
00:15:02,777 --> 00:15:04,234
This is not a show.

307
00:15:04,445 --> 00:15:06,437
Now that's where I disagree.

308
00:15:08,116 --> 00:15:09,948
Shelly, baby,
please come on out.

309
00:15:10,451 --> 00:15:11,407
I can't.

310
00:15:11,619 --> 00:15:13,201
Come on.
I'm your mommy.

311
00:15:13,413 --> 00:15:14,870
Do it for your mommy.

312
00:15:15,331 --> 00:15:16,071
No.

313
00:15:17,500 --> 00:15:18,581
But I'm your mommy.

314
00:15:18,918 --> 00:15:20,580
Y'all are killing me.

315
00:15:22,588 --> 00:15:24,921
<i>"I'm your mommy."</i>

316
00:15:25,133 --> 00:15:29,377
I think the saddest part
about it is just how sad it is.

317
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:31,461
Is there anything
that we can do?

318
00:15:32,390 --> 00:15:33,471
I don't know.

319
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:35,303
A hug might help.

320
00:15:35,685 --> 00:15:36,892
Of course.

321
00:15:38,980 --> 00:15:40,096
What's wrong
with you two?

322
00:15:40,314 --> 00:15:41,725
Don't you care
about my brother?

323
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:49,821
Aw.

324
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:53,613
Oh, Sheldon.

325
00:15:53,828 --> 00:15:55,569
That's it. I've had
enough of this nonsense.

326
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:57,996
If you don't come out,
I'm coming in!

327
00:15:58,458 --> 00:16:00,620
One, two,

328
00:16:00,835 --> 00:16:02,667
- three.
- Breach! Breach!

329
00:16:02,879 --> 00:16:05,917
- You come here right this instant!
- No.

330
00:16:06,132 --> 00:16:06,918
Oh!

331
00:16:14,557 --> 00:16:16,173
You can't run away
from me forever.

332
00:16:16,392 --> 00:16:18,805
I don't have to do it forever.
Just till you get tired.

333
00:16:19,395 --> 00:16:20,101
<i>Mary,</i>

334
00:16:20,313 --> 00:16:21,599
I'm gonna run
and go get my video camera.

335
00:16:21,814 --> 00:16:23,055
Don't catch him till I get back.

336
00:16:23,274 --> 00:16:24,515
This is not a joke!

337
00:16:24,734 --> 00:16:26,350
Sheldon, get over here!

338
00:16:31,282 --> 00:16:34,446
Sheldon Lee Cooper, get here.

339
00:16:34,660 --> 00:16:35,366
<i>Right now.</i>

340
00:16:35,578 --> 00:16:38,321
Oh, Lord, I think
I'm gonna wet myself.

341
00:16:38,539 --> 00:16:40,872
<i>Get! You come here!
Sheldon Lee Cooper!</i>

342
00:16:47,089 --> 00:16:48,546
Look at that.

343
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:51,959
St. Mary drinking alcohol.

344
00:16:52,261 --> 00:16:54,344
God saw what just happened.
He gets it.

345
00:16:56,224 --> 00:16:58,557
Mind if I take a crack
at catching the Road Runner?

346
00:16:58,768 --> 00:17:00,680
What are you gonna do
that I couldn't do?

347
00:17:00,895 --> 00:17:02,136
Oh, a little trick I learned

348
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,312
trying to get prairie dogs
out of the hole.

349
00:17:04,815 --> 00:17:07,148
Of course we'd whack off
their heads with a golf club.

350
00:17:07,902 --> 00:17:09,393
I'm not gonna do that
to Sheldon.

351
00:17:12,949 --> 00:17:14,690
Oh, Moon Pie,

352
00:17:15,576 --> 00:17:18,660
I've got a little treat for you.

353
00:17:19,705 --> 00:17:20,661
Chocolate chip?

354
00:17:20,873 --> 00:17:23,240
Mm-hmm, right out of the oven.

355
00:17:23,751 --> 00:17:25,208
Good. That means
they're sterile.

356
00:17:27,088 --> 00:17:30,206
Why don't you come on out here
and... have a couple?

357
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:31,836
I can't do that.

358
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:33,542
Okay, I tell you what.

359
00:17:33,761 --> 00:17:36,299
I'm gonna just put 'em
right out here,

360
00:17:36,639 --> 00:17:39,677
and you can come out
and get one when you're ready.

361
00:17:39,934 --> 00:17:42,802
How about that?
I'm gonna put 'em down

362
00:17:43,104 --> 00:17:44,891
<i>right... here.</i>

363
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:49,937
Aah!

364
00:17:51,404 --> 00:17:52,565
Come on! Oh.

365
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:56,531
Listen to me, buster.

366
00:17:57,159 --> 00:17:58,366
- Okay.
<i>- You are</i>

367
00:17:58,578 --> 00:18:00,035
a lot of things, Sheldon.

368
00:18:00,246 --> 00:18:03,614
You are cute, smart, hygienic.

369
00:18:07,545 --> 00:18:09,411
But most of all...

370
00:18:10,006 --> 00:18:13,340
you... are a Texan.

371
00:18:13,926 --> 00:18:14,586
So?

372
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:16,043
<i>So Texans</i>

373
00:18:16,262 --> 00:18:18,629
aren't afraid of nothin'!

374
00:18:18,848 --> 00:18:20,885
Rattlesnakes, Indians,

375
00:18:21,309 --> 00:18:23,016
<i>the Mexican Army.</i>

376
00:18:25,813 --> 00:18:30,057
Do you imagine that Sam Houston
was scared of a little old cold?

377
00:18:30,276 --> 00:18:31,312
No.

378
00:18:32,153 --> 00:18:33,269
Jim Bowie?

379
00:18:33,487 --> 00:18:34,603
No.

380
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:37,697
Sissy Spacek?

381
00:18:38,826 --> 00:18:39,987
I... guess not?

382
00:18:40,536 --> 00:18:42,823
You're damn right,
because they're Texans

383
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:44,116
through and through.

384
00:18:44,332 --> 00:18:46,790
Now I want you to quit hiding
in this plastic bubble,

385
00:18:47,001 --> 00:18:48,458
<i>and I want you to
come out here and</i>

386
00:18:48,669 --> 00:18:51,833
eat your cookies
out in the world like a man!

387
00:18:52,048 --> 00:18:53,334
Like a <i>Texan</i> man!

388
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:16,653
I'm impressed.

389
00:19:17,239 --> 00:19:18,104
Me, too.

390
00:19:18,699 --> 00:19:21,282
I thought I'd lost him
at Sissy Spacek.

391
00:19:21,827 --> 00:19:24,240
Whew!

392
00:19:28,876 --> 00:19:29,912
<i>As you can see,</i>

393
00:19:30,127 --> 00:19:33,461
<i>my meemaw successfully
lured me back into the world</i>

394
00:19:33,673 --> 00:19:37,542
<i>by reminding me
of my brave Texas ancestors.</i>

395
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,968
<i>Their blood ran
through my veins.</i>

396
00:19:40,179 --> 00:19:43,672
<i>I was a true son
of the Lone Star State.</i>

397
00:19:43,891 --> 00:19:45,553
<i>Albeit a true son</i>

398
00:19:45,768 --> 00:19:48,556
<i>with an incredibly fragile
immune system.</i>

399
00:19:48,771 --> 00:19:52,105
<i>I woke up the next morning
with a temperature of 102</i>

400
00:19:52,316 --> 00:19:54,933
<i>and a head packed full
of mucus.</i>

401
00:19:55,361 --> 00:19:58,945
<i>However, there was
a silver lining.</i>

402
00:20:13,337 --> 00:20:14,498
Sing it again, Mom.

403
00:20:14,714 --> 00:20:15,921
First, blow your nose.
