[adult Sheldon] Previously on
Young Sheldon...
2
00:00:04,881 --> 00:00:06,966
- The hell's wrong with you?
- What is going on?
3
00:00:07,050 --> 00:00:08,343
He's dropping out of school.
4
00:00:08,635 --> 00:00:10,386
- What?
- It's not a big deal.
5
00:00:10,470 --> 00:00:12,764
You are finishing high school.
End of discussion.
6
00:00:12,847 --> 00:00:14,015
It's my life.
7
00:00:14,098 --> 00:00:16,059
It's my house.
If you don't go to school,
8
00:00:16,142 --> 00:00:17,393
you can't live here.
9
00:00:17,644 --> 00:00:19,729
Hold on. We are not kicking him out.
10
00:00:19,896 --> 00:00:22,398
- The hell we're not!
- I'll pack right now.
11
00:00:22,690 --> 00:00:27,153
- Stop. You don't have to go.
- Yes, he does. My house, my rules.
12
00:00:30,490 --> 00:00:33,493
[adult Sheldon] I've always had
a curious affinity for laundromats.
13
00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:37,747
Perhaps it's the rows of mechanical
devices dedicated to a cleaner world.
14
00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:41,125
Or maybe it's the hypnotic rotation of
spinning clothes
15
00:00:41,209 --> 00:00:45,129
on their sudsyjourney to a fluffy,
stain-free future.
16
00:00:45,713 --> 00:00:47,090
Mmm. Look at 'em.
17
00:00:48,049 --> 00:00:50,093
Where was I? Oh, yes, laundromats.
18
00:00:50,843 --> 00:00:52,804
My Meemaw also loved them...
19
00:00:53,096 --> 00:00:55,306
...but for an entirely different reason.
20
00:00:55,848 --> 00:00:58,434
[rock music playing]
21
00:01:01,563 --> 00:01:03,481
- Banana. Banana.
- [machine dings]
22
00:01:03,648 --> 00:01:05,650
- [dinging]
- Whoo! [laughs]
23
00:01:06,359 --> 00:01:09,529
[adult Sheldon] Personally, I don't care
for bananas, it's a texture thing.
24
00:01:10,405 --> 00:01:12,574
- Here you go.
- Yeah, big night.
25
00:01:12,782 --> 00:01:13,782
Yeah.
26
00:01:14,033 --> 00:01:15,368
You just put it on my tab.
27
00:01:15,535 --> 00:01:17,662
Well, actually,
I'm gonna need you to cash out.
28
00:01:17,870 --> 00:01:21,082
- How come?
- I'm fixin' to close up for good.
29
00:01:21,165 --> 00:01:22,500
What? Why?
30
00:01:22,584 --> 00:01:24,419
Gonna spend more time
with the grandkids.
31
00:01:24,502 --> 00:01:26,212
I got grandkids, too.
32
00:01:26,337 --> 00:01:28,798
- Why do you think I'm here so much?
- [chuckles]
33
00:01:28,965 --> 00:01:30,967
So, who's gonna take over this place?
34
00:01:32,343 --> 00:01:34,345
Guess what? I'm buyin' a laundromat.
35
00:01:36,097 --> 00:01:38,933
Uh, I don't know how to react,
is that good news?
36
00:01:39,601 --> 00:01:40,601
Oh, yeah.
37
00:01:41,978 --> 00:01:42,978
Laundromat.
38
00:01:44,105 --> 00:01:45,105
Cool.
39
00:01:46,524 --> 00:01:48,526
[theme song playing]
40
00:02:05,418 --> 00:02:07,420
Fun fact: Did you know the knife
goes on the right
41
00:02:07,503 --> 00:02:10,173
because it was the first utensil
and most people are right-handed?
42
00:02:10,632 --> 00:02:12,800
Did you know I set the table
and no one said thank you?
43
00:02:13,134 --> 00:02:15,928
No one thanked me for my fun fact
and you don't hear me complaining.
44
00:02:17,472 --> 00:02:18,472
Hey.
45
00:02:20,016 --> 00:02:21,142
What are you doin' here?
46
00:02:21,934 --> 00:02:23,734
I just thought
I could have dinner with y'all.
47
00:02:23,811 --> 00:02:25,021
Of course you can.
48
00:02:25,146 --> 00:02:26,606
I'm sorry, do you live here?
49
00:02:27,565 --> 00:02:29,359
- Just forget it.
- No, stay.
50
00:02:29,609 --> 00:02:31,611
- Mary.
- He can have dinner with us!
51
00:02:32,945 --> 00:02:33,945
Fine.
52
00:02:34,739 --> 00:02:35,739
Sit.
53
00:02:36,491 --> 00:02:37,492
I'll get you a plate.
54
00:02:40,787 --> 00:02:42,455
So, do you still live here?
55
00:02:43,206 --> 00:02:45,291
- I don't know.
- Of course you do.
56
00:02:45,375 --> 00:02:46,375
You go back to school?
57
00:02:46,709 --> 00:02:48,961
- No.
- Sounds like you don't live here.
58
00:02:49,045 --> 00:02:51,214
He's our son, we're not kickin' him out.
59
00:02:51,381 --> 00:02:53,800
He wants to be an adult,
he can pay for his own place.
60
00:02:53,925 --> 00:02:54,967
That was my plan.
61
00:02:55,051 --> 00:02:57,512
Okay, what if he pitches in here?
62
00:02:57,804 --> 00:03:00,765
- Like what, rent?
- Yes. You would do that, right?
63
00:03:01,891 --> 00:03:02,725
I guess so.
64
00:03:02,809 --> 00:03:04,936
Sounds like someone needs
a rental agreement.
65
00:03:05,228 --> 00:03:06,938
I'll go get my legal pad.
66
00:03:09,023 --> 00:03:11,651
Pay to live here?
We don't even have a pool.
67
00:03:14,696 --> 00:03:19,242
So, there's a secret back room
at the laundromat where you gamble?
68
00:03:19,409 --> 00:03:20,409
Yeah.
69
00:03:20,827 --> 00:03:21,911
And you never told me?
70
00:03:22,078 --> 00:03:23,746
Well, this is how secrets work.
71
00:03:24,455 --> 00:03:25,748
What else aren't you telling me?
72
00:03:25,957 --> 00:03:27,917
Let me explain secrets.
73
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,377
Uh...
74
00:03:29,460 --> 00:03:32,964
Give me a sense,
for how illegal this is?
75
00:03:33,172 --> 00:03:34,549
Who says it's illegal?
76
00:03:34,632 --> 00:03:35,842
Why is it a secret?
77
00:03:36,426 --> 00:03:37,760
Okay, it's illegal.
78
00:03:37,969 --> 00:03:40,221
But these places
have been around for years.
79
00:03:40,304 --> 00:03:42,682
Nobody gets hurt. The cops don't care.
80
00:03:43,224 --> 00:03:44,892
I thought you liked being retired.
81
00:03:44,976 --> 00:03:46,561
Now you wanna be a business owner?
82
00:03:46,894 --> 00:03:49,480
It's not as much fun as I make it look.
83
00:03:49,605 --> 00:03:51,023
[chuckles] Listen.
84
00:03:51,607 --> 00:03:55,153
I've been gambling my whole life
and losin' to the house.
85
00:03:55,528 --> 00:03:59,365
This is my chance to be the house.
86
00:04:00,992 --> 00:04:03,119
You go to prison,
I ain't waiting for you.
87
00:04:03,369 --> 00:04:06,122
You really have the energy
to find a new girlfriend?
88
00:04:07,415 --> 00:04:08,415
I'll wait.
89
00:04:08,708 --> 00:04:09,876
[laughs]
90
00:04:10,418 --> 00:04:13,463
Okay, so we've agreed on monthly rent.
Should we talk utilities?
91
00:04:13,755 --> 00:04:15,256
Why do I gotta pay for that stuff?
92
00:04:15,673 --> 00:04:17,550
'Cause you use them and they cost money.
93
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:21,345
There are five of us in the house.
So I suggest he pays 20 percent.
94
00:04:21,429 --> 00:04:23,473
Although he does take
a long time drying that hair.
95
00:04:23,598 --> 00:04:24,640
Twenty percent's fine.
96
00:04:24,766 --> 00:04:25,766
Hold on.
97
00:04:26,058 --> 00:04:28,227
It takes a whole lot more water
to clean you than me.
98
00:04:28,311 --> 00:04:30,480
Hey, watch it,
I don't have to let you live here.
99
00:04:30,563 --> 00:04:33,900
"Let me"? I'm payin' for everything.
You gonna charge me for food, too?
100
00:04:34,192 --> 00:04:35,192
Not the worst idea.
101
00:04:35,693 --> 00:04:37,737
You know what,
maybe I shouldn't be in this house.
102
00:04:37,987 --> 00:04:39,155
You said it, not me.
103
00:04:39,238 --> 00:04:40,948
He doesn't have to pay for food.
104
00:04:41,032 --> 00:04:42,492
Meemaw does eat here for free.
105
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:43,993
That's a separate problem.
106
00:04:44,368 --> 00:04:46,412
What if Georgie moves into the garage?
107
00:04:47,163 --> 00:04:47,997
Why?
108
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,874
You'd still be around so Mom's happy,
109
00:04:49,957 --> 00:04:51,793
but you'd be outta the house
so Dad's happy.
110
00:04:52,835 --> 00:04:54,796
That could work. What do you say?
111
00:04:55,838 --> 00:04:57,381
- Done.
- Done.
112
00:04:57,548 --> 00:05:00,635
Hold on. All my trains
and science equipment are in the garage.
113
00:05:00,718 --> 00:05:01,636
Where would they go?
114
00:05:01,719 --> 00:05:04,472
Easy. I take Georgie's room,
while your crap goes in your room.
115
00:05:04,847 --> 00:05:06,933
That's a big change.
I need to think about this.
116
00:05:07,016 --> 00:05:08,016
Mom?
117
00:05:08,267 --> 00:05:12,021
Honey, it does make sense.
You two are gettin' older.
118
00:05:12,313 --> 00:05:14,482
I don't even have hair on my legs yet.
What's the rush?
119
00:05:14,607 --> 00:05:16,317
Let's just put this down for a few days.
120
00:05:16,442 --> 00:05:18,361
Why? 'Cause you don't want
to hear him complain?
121
00:05:18,736 --> 00:05:19,736
Bingo.
122

[country music playing]
123
00:05:26,118 --> 00:05:27,036
Hey, Dale.
124
00:05:27,119 --> 00:05:29,455
Hey, Jake. Good to see you.
125
00:05:29,622 --> 00:05:30,790
Hey, thanks for coming out.
126
00:05:30,873 --> 00:05:32,834
My pleasure. Can I get a beer?
127
00:05:33,835 --> 00:05:35,586
You arrest anybody fun lately?
128
00:05:35,962 --> 00:05:39,131
A party clown,
but what he was doing was not fun.
129
00:05:40,007 --> 00:05:41,007
Do I wanna know?
130
00:05:41,300 --> 00:05:42,760
Not if you want to sleep tonight.
131
00:05:42,844 --> 00:05:43,845
Huh.
132
00:05:44,303 --> 00:05:46,389
What's up with you?
Still dating that Connie?
133
00:05:46,597 --> 00:05:50,142
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Actually that's what
I wanted to talk to you about.
134
00:05:50,393 --> 00:05:51,227
Uh-oh.
135
00:05:51,310 --> 00:05:52,770
I can check into things,
136
00:05:52,854 --> 00:05:55,940
but if you think she's lying,
she probably is.
137
00:05:56,023 --> 00:05:57,441
No, that's not it.
138
00:05:58,025 --> 00:05:59,610
Well, still good life advice.
139
00:06:00,486 --> 00:06:04,448
Well, what do you know about these
backroom slot machine places?
140
00:06:05,449 --> 00:06:07,869
Why? You thinking of putting one
in your store?
141
00:06:08,035 --> 00:06:09,078
No. Uh-uh.
142
00:06:09,203 --> 00:06:12,957
No, actually, I'm asking for Connie.
'Cause she's kinda interested.
143
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,040
Hmm.
144
00:06:14,250 --> 00:06:16,419
Those places are harmless,
we look the other way.
145
00:06:16,502 --> 00:06:17,628
That's good to know.
146
00:06:18,713 --> 00:06:20,965
So what other laws are okay to break?
147
00:06:21,674 --> 00:06:25,511
Not hiding drugs in your keister,
what was that clown thinking?
148
00:06:26,804 --> 00:06:29,056
When they found it,
did confetti shoot out?

150

151
00:06:34,395 --> 00:06:35,938
But we've always shared a room.
152
00:06:36,022 --> 00:06:37,398
I'm a young lady now.
153

You seem the same to me.
154
00:06:38,941 --> 00:06:40,610
I have a training bra.
155
00:06:40,693 --> 00:06:42,778
When you complete your training,
get back to me.
156
00:06:43,529 --> 00:06:45,239
You know you want privacy, too.
157
00:06:46,616 --> 00:06:47,742
I suppose it would be nice
158
00:06:47,825 --> 00:06:49,865
to have all my trains
and science equipment in here.
159
00:06:50,119 --> 00:06:51,495
Great. It's settled.
160
00:06:52,914 --> 00:06:54,707
Would be like my fortress of solitude.
161
00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:57,168
- Good for you.
- Or my bat cave.

00:07:57,812 --> 00:07:59,730
But we haven't discussed
who gets what yet.
177
00:08:00,022 --> 00:08:02,274
I get my stuff, you get your stuff.
Done.
178
00:08:02,942 --> 00:08:06,195
There's community property.
We've lived together for over ten years.
179
00:08:06,362 --> 00:08:08,155
In some states,
we'd be considered married.
180
00:08:08,239 --> 00:08:09,073
Gross.
181
00:08:09,156 --> 00:08:10,950
I don't make the rules.
I just know them all.
182
00:08:11,158 --> 00:08:13,369
[sighs] What do I have to do
to get this over with?
183
00:08:13,452 --> 00:08:15,371
We just need to agree upon
who gets which items.
184
00:08:16,038 --> 00:08:19,709
Fine. As my farewell gift to you,
let's do your dumb thing.
185
00:08:20,334 --> 00:08:22,878
See, when you're mean and nice
at the same time, it's confusing.
186
00:08:23,170 --> 00:08:24,170
Too bad, doofus.
187
00:08:24,338 --> 00:08:25,464
Better, thank you.
188
00:08:27,758 --> 00:08:30,052
Okay, thanks. I'll see ya in a bit.
189
00:08:30,761 --> 00:08:33,305
Chet's gonna swing by
and finalize the deal.
190
00:08:33,389 --> 00:08:34,557
Wait, he's coming over here?
191
00:08:34,765 --> 00:08:35,933
Yeah, why?
192
00:08:36,183 --> 00:08:38,811
This is a very shady transaction.
193
00:08:38,894 --> 00:08:43,482
I mean, should be taking place under
a bridge or in a parking lot somewhere.
194
00:08:43,816 --> 00:08:47,737
I'm handin' him a cashier's check,
he's givin' me the keys.
195
00:08:48,029 --> 00:08:49,488
He's gonna know where you live.
196
00:08:49,613 --> 00:08:52,241
I'm in the phone book,
I'm not hard to find.
197
00:08:52,324 --> 00:08:55,494
Well, what if he grabs the check
and just skedaddles out of here?
198
00:08:55,703 --> 00:08:58,956
He's our age.
He ain't skedaddling anywhere.
199
00:08:59,123 --> 00:09:00,332
Ah, whatever you say.
200
00:09:01,083 --> 00:09:04,253
Are you disappointed this isn't
more like some old cop show?
201
00:09:04,628 --> 00:09:06,172
I loved Rockford Files.
202
00:09:06,380 --> 00:09:09,633
Tell you what.
When he gets here, you're my muscle.
203
00:09:10,509 --> 00:09:13,429
If anything goes sideways, you jump in.
204
00:09:13,512 --> 00:09:15,347
Hey, now you're talkin'.
205
00:09:16,057 --> 00:09:18,184
I stand behind you
and I crack my knuckles.
206
00:09:18,517 --> 00:09:19,727
With your arthritis?
207
00:09:20,102 --> 00:09:21,896
It's only bad when it rains.
208
00:09:23,439 --> 00:09:26,233
Next. One Timex brand alarm clock.
209
00:09:27,234 --> 00:09:28,234
It's yours.
210
00:09:28,402 --> 00:09:30,488
Are you sure?
It has a stylish faux wood finish.
211
00:09:31,238 --> 00:09:32,323
Fine, I'll take it.
212
00:09:32,448 --> 00:09:34,200
- Aw.
- So you want it?
213
00:09:34,325 --> 00:09:36,160
- Yes.
- It's yours.
214
00:09:36,243 --> 00:09:37,243
Thank you.
215
00:09:39,205 --> 00:09:42,833
Next. One useful, yet educational
map of the world trash can.
216
00:09:42,958 --> 00:09:44,001
I know what you're doing.
217
00:09:44,502 --> 00:09:46,212
Yes, I'm being thorough
about these things.
218
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:47,814
We don't fight about them down the line.
219
00:09:47,838 --> 00:09:50,966
What you're doing is dragging this out
because you don't want me to leave.
220
00:09:51,050 --> 00:09:52,468
- No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.
221
00:09:52,718 --> 00:09:54,762
Do you know the phrase "pish posh"?
222
00:09:55,054 --> 00:09:56,388
No, and I don't want to.
223
00:09:57,014 --> 00:10:00,142
It's British and it's used when
someone's opinions are absurd
224
00:10:00,226 --> 00:10:01,727
and you're forcing me to use it.
225
00:10:02,269 --> 00:10:06,690
Pish posh. Or more authentically.
[in British accent] "Pish posh."
226
00:10:06,899 --> 00:10:07,899
I'm done.
227
00:10:08,359 --> 00:10:10,236
I know what's mine and I'm taking it.
228
00:10:10,736 --> 00:10:13,497
[adult Sheldon] One day, she said
the same thing to her first husband.
229
00:10:13,989 --> 00:10:16,283
I like to think I prepared her
for that moment.
230
00:10:18,077 --> 00:10:20,746
So I'm thinking dark red,
like a speakeasy
231
00:10:20,830 --> 00:10:23,040
and maybe a little bar in the corner.
232
00:10:23,582 --> 00:10:25,835
- You're going to need a liquor licence.
- Oh, right.
233
00:10:26,043 --> 00:10:30,381
Because I don't want to break the law
in my illegal gambling room.
234
00:10:30,631 --> 00:10:33,801
Over here's my bedroom area
for sleeping and whatnot.
235
00:10:34,301 --> 00:10:35,301
That's my gym.
236
00:10:35,344 --> 00:10:37,680
Last but not least,
kitchen and bathroom.
237
00:10:38,139 --> 00:10:40,850
Georgie, do you use that sink
as a bathroom?
238
00:10:41,142 --> 00:10:43,185
Relax, just number one.
239
00:10:46,021 --> 00:10:47,021
There you go.
240
00:10:47,064 --> 00:10:50,234
Okay, these posters go on that wall,
that poster goes over the bed.
241
00:10:50,359 --> 00:10:52,361
[scoffs] I'm not your moving man.
242
00:10:52,903 --> 00:10:54,697
You're right, I'm growing up.
243
00:10:54,989 --> 00:10:57,241
Guess I can't be
Daddy's little girl forever.
244
00:10:59,493 --> 00:11:01,036
Which one goes over the bed?
245
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,329
Um, New Kids.
246
00:11:02,413 --> 00:11:05,082
First thing I'm going to do
is get better chairs.
247
00:11:05,166 --> 00:11:08,127
If people are comfy,
they'll stay longer and spend more.
248
00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:10,337
What if it's someone's lucky chair?
249
00:11:10,713 --> 00:11:12,965
They're gambling
in the back of a laundromat.
250
00:11:13,549 --> 00:11:15,342
Does that sound lucky to you?
251
00:11:15,676 --> 00:11:18,971
I'm thinking I'll put the flag
over that window for, you know, privacy.
252
00:11:19,138 --> 00:11:22,641
If you want, I could sew some curtains,
make it look homey.
253
00:11:22,808 --> 00:11:24,977
Nice. Girls will eat that up.
254
00:11:25,477 --> 00:11:26,477
Flag is fine.
255
00:11:36,989 --> 00:11:37,989
[knock on door]
256
00:11:40,618 --> 00:11:42,328
Well, you've been busy.
257
00:11:42,494 --> 00:11:43,494
Yes.
258
00:11:43,954 --> 00:11:45,473
Did you get this in here
all by yourself?
259
00:11:45,497 --> 00:11:46,415
Yes.
260
00:11:46,498 --> 00:11:47,374
How?
261
00:11:47,458 --> 00:11:48,458
Science.
262
00:11:49,418 --> 00:11:50,961
- Well, looks good.
- I know.
263
00:11:51,337 --> 00:11:53,523
Now trains will be the last thing I see
before I go to sleep,
264
00:11:53,547 --> 00:11:55,147
and the first thing
I see when I wake up.
265
00:11:55,758 --> 00:11:56,675
Great.
266
00:11:56,759 --> 00:11:59,159
If I stir in the middle of the night,
you know what I'll see?
267
00:11:59,428 --> 00:12:01,305
- Trains?
- Trains.
268
00:12:04,266 --> 00:12:05,267
Yeah.
269
00:12:06,268 --> 00:12:07,269
As long as you're happy.
270
00:12:07,895 --> 00:12:08,895
Oh, I'm happy.
271
00:12:16,153 --> 00:12:17,196
Hey.
272
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:19,198
You might wanna check in on Sheldon.
273
00:12:19,448 --> 00:12:20,616
He okay?
274
00:12:20,950 --> 00:12:22,493
Well, he was smiling.
275
00:12:22,993 --> 00:12:24,036
Smiling how?
276
00:12:26,497 --> 00:12:27,498
Oh, boy.
277
00:12:35,172 --> 00:12:36,757
Hi. Dinner's ready.
278
00:12:37,132 --> 00:12:38,842
I'll eat later, have to finish this.
279
00:12:41,553 --> 00:12:44,723
I made spaghetti
with hot dogs cut up in it.
280
00:12:45,015 --> 00:12:48,978
I even made sure that every piece
is the exact same size.
281
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,189
Some things are more important
than the width of a hot dog slice.
282
00:12:53,023 --> 00:12:54,525
And I wish I'd known that sooner.
283
00:12:55,276 --> 00:12:57,444
So, you okay?
284
00:12:58,028 --> 00:12:59,113
Why wouldn't I be okay?
285
00:12:59,446 --> 00:13:04,201
Well, there's a lot of change going on.
I know that's not your favorite.
286
00:13:04,535 --> 00:13:05,953
Where is that rail road crossing?
287
00:13:06,578 --> 00:13:08,789
Would you like to eat in here?
I'll make you a plate.
288
00:13:08,872 --> 00:13:11,667
I have to find that sign.
It should be in this box. Where is it?
289
00:13:17,464 --> 00:13:19,174
I can't find my rail road crossing sign.
290
00:13:19,425 --> 00:13:21,010
Hey! How 'bout knockin'?
291
00:13:21,093 --> 00:13:23,029
Sorry, I've never had
to knock on that door before.
292
00:13:23,053 --> 00:13:24,053
Well, now you do.
293
00:13:24,388 --> 00:13:27,266
[grunts] I need the crossing sign
for my train set. Have you seen it?
294
00:13:28,058 --> 00:13:29,935
No. And I got company comin' soon.
295
00:13:30,602 --> 00:13:32,402
Perfect. An extra set of eyes
will be helpful.
296
00:13:32,479 --> 00:13:34,165
It's a girl.
And you need to get out of here.
297
00:13:34,189 --> 00:13:35,566
I'm not leaving until I find it.
298
00:13:36,191 --> 00:13:37,860
Is this really about some dumb sign,
299
00:13:37,943 --> 00:13:40,279
or is about you being scared
to have a room to yourself?
300
00:13:40,946 --> 00:13:43,907
That sign has been there for as long as
I've had that rail road set.
301
00:13:44,325 --> 00:13:46,535
It may seem insignificant to you,
but I need it.
302
00:13:47,161 --> 00:13:48,871
Everyone only cares about themselves.
303
00:13:49,121 --> 00:13:50,557
You're happy because you got the garage.
304
00:13:50,581 --> 00:13:52,183
Missy's happy because
she has her own room.
305
00:13:52,207 --> 00:13:54,084
But no one cares about my problems.
306
00:13:55,461 --> 00:13:57,254
- I'll help you look.
- Just forget it.
307
00:14:00,466 --> 00:14:03,677
[adult Sheldon] As I struggled,
my Meemaw began to realize
308
00:14:03,802 --> 00:14:07,014
the problem with running a gambling den
in the back of a laundromat was
309
00:14:07,097 --> 00:14:08,932
it's still connected to a laundromat.
310
00:14:09,016 --> 00:14:12,603
I put five pairs of undies in here,
and now there are four.
311
00:14:13,103 --> 00:14:14,646
Your machine ate my undies.
312
00:14:14,730 --> 00:14:16,833
There's a Lost and Found box
right over there in the corner.
313
00:14:16,857 --> 00:14:17,858
Just take all you want.
314
00:14:18,067 --> 00:14:20,277
I don't want a stranger's undies.
315
00:14:20,611 --> 00:14:23,030
Then let's find your precious undies.
316
00:14:23,155 --> 00:14:25,991
Look how many rhinestones fell off
in the dryer.
317
00:14:27,618 --> 00:14:29,912
It says right here, "Do not tumble-dry."
318
00:14:30,454 --> 00:14:32,289
No label's gonna tell me what to do.
319
00:14:32,581 --> 00:14:36,251
I'm not in the mood for Texas right now.
What do you want from me?
320
00:14:36,752 --> 00:14:38,629
Well, what size is yours?
321
00:14:39,713 --> 00:14:40,714
No!
322
00:14:55,145 --> 00:14:57,523
Finally, the fun begins.
323
00:15:01,485 --> 00:15:02,528
What's going on?
324
00:15:03,695 --> 00:15:05,114
Are you Connie Tucker?
325
00:15:07,157 --> 00:15:08,283
Well, this sucks.
326
00:15:12,413 --> 00:15:14,456
[train horn honking]
327
00:15:19,753 --> 00:15:21,046
Next stop, Medford.
328
00:15:21,422 --> 00:15:23,465
That won't be necessary, keep going.
329
00:15:23,882 --> 00:15:25,926
But, sir,
your family's waiting to board.
330
00:15:26,093 --> 00:15:27,469
I'm aware, drive on.
331
00:15:28,554 --> 00:15:29,864
- But, sir...
- I don't need them.
332
00:15:29,888 --> 00:15:32,766
I'm fine on my own.
Do not stop this train.
333
00:15:35,602 --> 00:15:37,479
[train honking]
334
00:15:40,899 --> 00:15:41,899
Turn it off.
335
00:15:42,025 --> 00:15:42,860
No.
336
00:15:42,943 --> 00:15:45,362
I've been listening to it for an hour.
Turn it off.
337
00:15:45,446 --> 00:15:47,406
It's my room. I can do what I want.
338
00:15:47,781 --> 00:15:49,301
Oh, really? Let's see how you like it.
339
00:15:52,453 --> 00:15:55,539
[music playing loudly]
340
00:15:57,749 --> 00:15:59,918
[train honking increases in volume]
341
00:16:00,127 --> 00:16:01,336
What the hell's going on?
342
00:16:01,420 --> 00:16:02,921
Missy's trying to annoy me.
343
00:16:03,005 --> 00:16:05,382
'Cause he won't
turn his stupid train off.
344
00:16:05,466 --> 00:16:06,842
You two are unbelievable!
345
00:16:06,967 --> 00:16:08,051
Everything off.
346
00:16:08,177 --> 00:16:09,887
- He started it.
- Now!
347
00:16:13,098 --> 00:16:14,266
[camera shutter clicking]
348
00:16:14,516 --> 00:16:16,310
I thought y'all looked the other way.
349
00:16:17,269 --> 00:16:18,145
We do.
350
00:16:18,228 --> 00:16:21,482
But I'm running for Sheriff,
and this will make my campaign pop.
351
00:16:21,982 --> 00:16:23,692
But you and Dale are buddies.
352
00:16:24,818 --> 00:16:26,236
That's why I'm not arresting you.
353
00:16:27,154 --> 00:16:28,697
Hey, get one with me in it.
354
00:16:30,115 --> 00:16:31,366
[camera shutter clicks]
355
00:16:35,162 --> 00:16:37,039
- So are you gonna sell the place?
- No.
356
00:16:38,582 --> 00:16:42,419
Instead of crime boss,
you're going to be a laundry boss.
357
00:16:42,628 --> 00:16:43,837
I guess that's just as cool.
358
00:16:44,087 --> 00:16:45,797
I'm going to open my game room.
359
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,634
- How?
- I don't know.
360
00:16:49,676 --> 00:16:50,802
Move to a new location?
361
00:16:50,886 --> 00:16:51,970
I don't know!
362
00:16:52,804 --> 00:16:53,844
What about the laundromat?
363
00:16:53,889 --> 00:16:56,058
Keep asking questions, see what happens.
364
00:16:57,351 --> 00:16:58,351
Last one.
365
00:16:58,435 --> 00:16:59,435
What?
366
00:17:00,187 --> 00:17:01,939
How'd you get so pretty?
367
00:17:04,191 --> 00:17:05,484
I hate you.
368
00:17:07,069 --> 00:17:08,111
I like you.
369
00:17:10,322 --> 00:17:11,365
[Meemaw sighs]
370
00:17:13,742 --> 00:17:15,494
[adult Sheldon]
There were plenty of reasons
371
00:17:15,577 --> 00:17:16,912
to be happy my sister moved out.
372
00:17:17,663 --> 00:17:18,747
She snored.
373
00:17:19,456 --> 00:17:20,958
She teased me.
374
00:17:21,583 --> 00:17:23,502
She left her dirty clothes everywhere.
375
00:17:27,214 --> 00:17:29,341
Clearly I was better off without her.
376
00:17:31,051 --> 00:17:32,219
[knock on door]
377
00:17:38,016 --> 00:17:39,351
Can I sleep on your floor?
378
00:17:40,477 --> 00:17:41,477
Come on.
379
00:17:51,154 --> 00:17:54,825
[adult Sheldon] I eventually made
my peace with having a room to myself,
380
00:17:54,908 --> 00:17:58,662
and I was never truly alone,
thanks to my science posse,
381
00:17:58,745 --> 00:18:01,665
Stephen, Albert, Richard, and Arthur.
382
00:18:02,583 --> 00:18:05,794
But for those times when I did need
to communicate with Missy,
383
00:18:05,877 --> 00:18:07,045
we had a system.
384
00:18:10,882 --> 00:18:11,925
[thuds]
385
00:18:12,593 --> 00:18:13,594
[Missy sighs]
386
00:18:13,677 --> 00:18:14,553
What?
387
00:18:14,636 --> 00:18:15,971
Just testing the system.
388
00:18:16,054 --> 00:18:17,556
You tested it yesterday.
389
00:18:17,639 --> 00:18:20,517
Just because it worked yesterday
doesn't mean it's working today.
390
00:18:20,601 --> 00:18:22,728
It's working. Good night.
391
00:18:23,186 --> 00:18:24,396
Good night. Sleep tight.
392
00:18:28,525 --> 00:18:30,027
[thudding]
393
00:18:31,903 --> 00:18:32,738
What?
394
00:18:32,821 --> 00:18:34,573
Did you know
when people say "sleep tight,"
395
00:18:34,656 --> 00:18:36,426
they are referring to when beds
were made of ropes
396
00:18:36,450 --> 00:18:39,286
and the tighter the rope, the more
comfortable the bed was to sleep on?
397
00:18:39,369 --> 00:18:40,245
Cool.
398
00:18:40,329 --> 00:18:41,371
Bye.
399
00:18:42,039 --> 00:18:46,001
[adult Sheldon] My sister wasn't always
a fan of my informative tidbits.
400
00:18:46,084 --> 00:18:48,545
So I didn't tell her
that the entire phrase,
401
00:18:48,629 --> 00:18:51,256
"Good night, sleep tight,
don't let the bedbugs bite"
402
00:18:51,340 --> 00:18:53,508
is actually from the 1896 book
403
00:18:53,592 --> 00:18:57,471
What They Say in New England: The Book
of Signs, Sayings and Superstitions.
404
00:18:58,639 --> 00:18:59,848
Until I told her.
405
00:19:00,098 --> 00:19:01,350
[thudding]
406
00:19:05,729 --> 00:19:07,731
