This is the one where Penny has a serious job, Sheldon leaves the String theory, Stuart reopens his shop, Howard’s mom dies and Sheldon loves Amy.
1. The locomotion interruption.
A month later, Sheldon is naively robbed of everything, and he calls Leonard from Arizona to come pick him up. Amy and Leonard drive him home.
Penny has a new haircut, short hair, more adult, and she has a job interview for Pharmaceuticals Sales. Bernie talked her up to Dan, the guy interviewing her. At the end she gets the job, and they bond other their shared fear of Bernie.
Howard’s mom is better now, but Stuart is still there, he really likes it there, and Howard is upset about him living with his mom.
2. The junior professor solution.
Bernie wants Penny to read up on the material and be prepared; Penny wants her to stop bothering her.
Sheldon is told that the solution to allow him to leave the string theory is tompromote him, make him a junior professor, thus paying him more, but he’d have to teach a class. He thinks it’s a waste of time to teach. His friends talk him into accepting it, after all he likes to talk, to give grades, to tell people they’re wrong… so he accepts. So he can go on studying Dark Matter. Still, nobody signed up to his class because he has a reputation for being obnoxious.
Howard thinks of getting a doctorate but Sheldon thinks he’s not smart enough to follow his class. Still, Howard wants to go on and take his class, but after one lesson he quits.
3. The first pitch insufficiency.
Howard will have to throw a ball at a baseball game so Bernie coaches him.
Sheldon thinks his relationship with Amy is the best of all their relationships, especially better than Leonard and Penny’s.
4. The hook-up reverberation.
Emily meets everyone but she doesn’t like Penny because Raj told her they hooked up, and when it comes up Penny reluctantly admits it… I don’t remember well, but didn’t they say at the end that she just fell asleep? I mean, tat they stripped and kissed but didn’t go any further? Does it really count? Apparently it does, and Raj makes it more difficult. The two girls do not like each other.
The guys miss Stuart’s comic book store and think about opening it themselves. None of the girls is very happy about it. It turns out Howard’s mom already gave Stuart the money to reopen it, so they can’t do it.
5. The focus attenuation.
The guys want to do a science retreat, at home because every place they can think of is rejected by Sheldon because there are horror movies about it. This is because they think they haven’t followed up on any of their invention ideas since they got girls. At home they watch Back to the Future 2 and talk about it… so they move to Leonard’s lab. There’s no tv there but there’s a pc. They go back home to watch Ghostbusters.
The girls go to Vegas but Penny receives a text from her boss so she has to study. Amy and Bernie have ‘fun’ drinking and watching strippers, and the next morning they’re out like zombies so Penny goes swimming.
6. The expedition approximation.
Now that Penny’s making money in her new job, she gives back to Leonard the money he spent on her car, since she has a company car now so she sold his.
Sheldon and Raj think of going to a mine, so they try a simulation first, but can’t make it, Sheldon only lasts 11 minutes.
7. The misinterpretation agitation.
Bernie is excited about her news that she “was asked to be a part of a magazine article about the 50 sexiest female scientists in California”. Amy thinks it’s awful because a scientist shouldn’t flaunt their sexuality. Then the magazine won’t domit anymore, because Amy sent them an email.
Penny flirts to make more sales, and now a doctor brings her flowers. Leonard is not happy about it and tells the guy she’s his girlfriend. This doctor treats many celebrities, even Star Trek ones, and the guys like him, and go to his olace to see his extensive collection. But then Sheldon says that they all have doubts on how ling their relationship will last, and he also says Leonard won Penny over by being implacable and relentless, so he decides to do the same… but then he meets Amy and tries with her instead. When he left his house, he left the guys locked in there, so Penny and Amy, and then also Bernie, go there to free them… but they were happily playing Donkey Kong.
8. The prom equivalency.
The guys saw Howard’s mom and Stuart out together. Howard’s worried they might be dating but Stuart says they’re not.
Going through Penny’s clothes, the girls start talking about the school prom and decide to do another one, to have a real good one. Penny’s not too happy but goes anyway, with the same dress of her school days.
Stuart takes Jeanie, Howard’s second cousin that he had sex with at 15.
Penny and Leonard both tease Sheldon on the intimacy that traditionally follows the prom, and when he sees Amy he turns back saying he can’t do it. Amy talks with him, she understands him, and he tells her he loves her!
Then they go… and Stuart has to leave because Debbie (Howard’s mom) called him.
9. The septum deviation.
Leonard has to have surgery and Sheldon is against it. He’s worried. So Leonard lies to him and goes right away to have surgery, but then he finds out and goes there too. Sheldon and Amy arrive while he’s in surgery. When the lights go out, Sheldon hurts himself hitting his face on a door. Now they’re both with hurt noses :p
Raj was thinking about what to give his parents for their anniversary , but then they tell him that they are splitting up.
10. The champagne reflection.
The boys clean up the office of late professor Abbott.
Penny’s boss Dan is still terrified of Bernie, and it does not help that she’s kinds mean now too. Bernie doesn’t realize that though, she says she’s the sweetest person she knows. Then she says it’s because her dad taught her to be tough, after Penny talks to her. It doesn’t change much.
Sheldon is having LeVar Burton at his last episode of Fun with Flags; Burton accepted because he promised to delete his contact information. One comment is enough and Sheldon decides not to stop but go on with the flag show. P.s. Sheldon knows wher Burton lives.
11. The clean room infiltration.
Leonard and Howard work in the “clean room”, all in white, but then a pigeon comes in because they didn’t shut the loading doors.
Christmas is at Amy’s place, where Penny is left alone with Raj’s dad after Raj has to rush to the university to help the guys. Bernie drives Sheldon, and then takes him to buy a Christmas present as ‘revenge’ for forcing him to go to these parties. He takes a picture on Santa’s lap.
The three guys almost kill the pigeon, but then another bird flies in… and they take Penny’s suggestion to erase their names and go away.
Sheldon puts the picture in a talking frame, with his voice, but of course his plan is ruined because Amy does have a present for him, she made him cookies, his ‘Meemaw’s Christmas cookies’ , Amy called her asking for the recipe.
12. The space probe disintegration.
Raj is panicking because a probe he worked on years ago has finally arrived and they’ll all find out if it made it or not.
Sheldon and Leonard wanted to play a game but Penny and Amy are tired of doing what they want all the time, so they go shopping while the guys wait. Then they go make baskets because it’s what Amy wants to do. Usually she just does what Penny wants.

Raj’s probe works, so it’s okay, and we learn that he goes to the Hindu temple from time to time, even if he never told anyone.
13. The anxiety optimization.
Sheldon is sulking because he’s making no progress on dark matter, but talking to Penny helps him, so he does gomto work. He decides that he needs to feel anxious to work well, but eventually Leonard and Penny have to put him to sleep with Soft Kitty because he’s having hallucinations and stinks.
Howard has fun playing the game “Emily or Cinnamon” and Raj hates it. It means to guess if Raj said a certain something to his girl or his dog.

18. The leftover thermalization.
