1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,837
Previously on Young Sheldon...
We are at capacity.

2
00:00:03,837 --> 00:00:05,705
It's time to expand.

3
00:00:05,705 --> 00:00:07,507
Where?
The video store

4
00:00:07,507 --> 00:00:09,275
right behind that wall

5
00:00:09,275 --> 00:00:11,411
just lost its lease.

6
00:00:11,411 --> 00:00:12,579
So, you're telling me
there's nothing weird

7
00:00:12,579 --> 00:00:13,646
going on back there?

8
00:00:15,448 --> 00:00:16,916
Oh, my God.

9
00:00:16,916 --> 00:00:19,850
Is it legal?
No.
Yes.

10
00:00:19,850 --> 00:00:20,920
Too bad there's not
a comic book database

11
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:22,756
so I can search through it
and find what I'm looking for.

12
00:00:22,756 --> 00:00:24,524
Well, CERN
has something similar.

13
00:00:24,524 --> 00:00:26,926
You can search a database
of scientific papers.

14
00:00:26,926 --> 00:00:28,928
But there's no database
for comic books.

15
00:00:28,928 --> 00:00:31,264
You should make one.
Somewhere else.

16
00:00:31,264 --> 00:00:33,990
Could it be used
to catalogue

17
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:34,334
other things?

18
00:00:34,334 --> 00:00:36,169
Yes, the applications
are endless.

19
00:00:36,169 --> 00:00:38,471
Ooh, there could be ones
for scientific grants.

20
00:00:38,471 --> 00:00:40,607
Funding grants is such
a time-consuming process.

21
00:00:40,607 --> 00:00:42,175
If there was
a centralized database,

22
00:00:42,175 --> 00:00:44,110
it would change
the research landscape entirely.

23
00:00:44,110 --> 00:00:46,312
Do you see what this could do
for the scientific community?

24
00:00:46,312 --> 00:00:49,490
We could charge an access fee to
every university on the planet,

25
00:00:49,490 --> 00:00:51,484
then I could retire on a yacht
in the Bahamas.

26
00:00:51,484 --> 00:00:52,485
You're missing the point.

27
00:00:52,485 --> 00:00:53,720
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

28
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,155
Uh, good for science. I love it.

29
00:00:58,191 --> 00:01:00,460
ADULT SHELDON: People say French
is the language of love,

30
00:01:00,460 --> 00:01:04,531
but for me, nothing is sweeter
than the exhilarating sounds

31
00:01:04,531 --> 00:01:06,900
of legalese. Ooh, la, la.

32
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:09,736
The same could not be said
for my parents.

33
00:01:09,736 --> 00:01:10,804
Uh...

34
00:01:10,804 --> 00:01:11,871
(stammers)

35
00:01:11,871 --> 00:01:13,600
And which one are we?

36
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:14,174
"The-the party
of the first part"

37
00:01:14,174 --> 00:01:15,508
or "the party
of the second part"?

38
00:01:15,508 --> 00:01:17,177
(laughs) The first part,

39
00:01:17,177 --> 00:01:18,978
but either way, it's a party.

40
00:01:18,978 --> 00:01:21,514
Speaking of which,
can I get you a beer?

41
00:01:21,514 --> 00:01:23,817
Y-You're a Lone Star man, right?

42
00:01:23,817 --> 00:01:25,552
Matter of fact, I am. George.

43
00:01:25,552 --> 00:01:26,886
She offered.
I don't want to be rude.

44
00:01:26,886 --> 00:01:27,921
It's 11:00 a.m.

45
00:01:27,921 --> 00:01:29,923
Well, you just let me know.

46
00:01:29,923 --> 00:01:31,591
We'll get you anything you want.

47
00:01:31,591 --> 00:01:33,760
We're fine, thank you.
(clears throat)

48
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,662
So, you really think
this invention of Sheldon's

49
00:01:35,662 --> 00:01:37,300
could be worth something?

50
00:01:37,300 --> 00:01:38,898
Oh, who knows?
Uh, most of the time,

51
00:01:38,898 --> 00:01:40,667
these things don't pan out.

52
00:01:40,667 --> 00:01:43,203
Could be something,
probably nothing. (laughs)

53
00:01:43,203 --> 00:01:45,538
Uh, that's just a formality.

54
00:01:46,506 --> 00:01:48,410
But you said my grant database

55
00:01:48,410 --> 00:01:50,100
would make the university
"boatloads of money."

56
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:52,120
Well, that doesn't
mean anything.

57
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,680
Boats can be small. (laughs)

58
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,248
Ever hear of a canoe?

59
00:01:55,248 --> 00:01:57,684
Anyway, who needs a pen?

60
00:01:57,684 --> 00:01:59,386
What's this about the university

61
00:01:59,386 --> 00:02:02,789
owning 90% and Sheldon
only owning ten?

62
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:04,691
Oh, that's just
standard boilerplate.

63
00:02:04,691 --> 00:02:06,259
Did you know that
boilerplate originally

64
00:02:06,259 --> 00:02:07,594
referred to the
roll of steel

65
00:02:07,594 --> 00:02:09,696
used as a template
to create steam boilers,

66
00:02:09,696 --> 00:02:11,564
but then was adapted
to the legal profession

67
00:02:11,564 --> 00:02:13,233
to describe the way
companies use fine print

68
00:02:13,233 --> 00:02:14,434
to get around the law?

69
00:02:15,902 --> 00:02:18,204
Ugh, that fact is just so fun.

70
00:02:18,204 --> 00:02:19,739
You see? It is a party.

71
00:02:19,739 --> 00:02:22,208
And what's a party
without Yoo-hoo?

72
00:02:22,208 --> 00:02:24,110
Can I get you a cold one?

73
00:02:24,110 --> 00:02:25,545
Yes, please.

74
00:02:25,545 --> 00:02:27,313
No. We want to make
sure that Sheldon

75
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:28,648
is being treated fairly.

76
00:02:28,648 --> 00:02:30,650
Yeah, maybe we should get
our own lawyer

77
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:32,652
to take a look at this
before we sign anything.

78
00:02:32,652 --> 00:02:33,953
Can we afford a lawyer?

79
00:02:36,656 --> 00:02:39,559
Okay, w-we're gonna need
some time to get back to you.

80
00:02:39,559 --> 00:02:42,429
Of course.
You take all the time you need.

81
00:02:42,429 --> 00:02:44,264
You know, just
because of all

82
00:02:44,264 --> 00:02:47,400
the nice things we've done for
your son and for your family,

83
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,603
no need to start
trusting us now.

84
00:02:50,603 --> 00:02:54,240
She took that
better than I thought.

85
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,243
♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪

86
00:02:57,243 --> 00:02:59,779

♪ I am a mighty little man. ♪

90
00:03:15,261 --> 00:03:16,996
Dang, it's busy in here
for a weekday.

91
00:03:16,996 --> 00:03:19,990
Social Security checks landed.

92
00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:21,768
Hm. Getting paid
just to be old-- must be nice.

93
00:03:21,768 --> 00:03:22,969
I ain't complaining.

94
00:03:22,969 --> 00:03:24,270
Listen, this cash box

95
00:03:24,270 --> 00:03:25,939
is full. Take some of this up

96
00:03:25,939 --> 00:03:28,375
and stick it in the register
in the video store.

97
00:03:28,375 --> 00:03:29,476
You got it.

98
00:03:29,476 --> 00:03:30,944
And don't be
flirting with Mandy.

99
00:03:30,944 --> 00:03:32,278
I need help back here.

100
00:03:32,278 --> 00:03:34,114
Okay, but she might
flirt with me.

101
00:03:34,114 --> 00:03:36,216
This shirt really
brings out my eyes.

102
00:03:38,518 --> 00:03:39,986
(door closes)

103
00:03:39,986 --> 00:03:41,788
How's it going?
Figure everything out?

104
00:03:41,788 --> 00:03:43,957
People give me money,
I give them movies.

105
00:03:43,957 --> 00:03:45,358
I think I got it.

106
00:03:45,358 --> 00:03:47,360
Smart, pregnant,
you're the whole package.

107
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,329
I'd like to return this movie.

108
00:03:49,329 --> 00:03:51,197
Okay, thank you. Come again.

109
00:03:51,898 --> 00:03:53,733
I can't believe
you would rent this filth.

110
00:03:53,733 --> 00:03:56,503
It's not filth.
It's Basic Instinct.

111
00:03:56,503 --> 00:03:58,171
Well, my husband was watching it

112
00:03:58,171 --> 00:04:00,140
and there was a woman in there
who showed her hoo-ha.

113
00:04:00,140 --> 00:04:01,708
Yeah, she does.

114
00:04:01,708 --> 00:04:03,309
Come on, I mean,
you don't see the whole thing.

115
00:04:03,309 --> 00:04:05,178
At most, you
see a "hoo."

116
00:04:05,178 --> 00:04:07,347
If you see the "hoo,"
the "ha's" right there.

117
00:04:08,148 --> 00:04:09,983
Whatever it was, it's sinful.

118
00:04:09,983 --> 00:04:12,152
Why don't you pick out
something else? On the house.

119
00:04:12,152 --> 00:04:14,320
I don't know why you'd carry
something like this.

120
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,488
People like it.

121
00:04:15,488 --> 00:04:16,823
I've seen it three times.

122
00:04:16,823 --> 00:04:18,658
Do you really want
to bring your baby

123
00:04:18,658 --> 00:04:21,394
into a world where this
is considered entertainment?

124
00:04:23,496 --> 00:04:25,865
Lady, why don't you
let me worry about my baby

125
00:04:25,865 --> 00:04:28,680
and, uh, you worry about
what your husband's watching.

126
00:04:28,768 --> 00:04:30,870
Easy, she's still
a customer.

127
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:32,205
Not anymore.

128
00:04:32,205 --> 00:04:33,540
And I'm gonna tell
my prayer group

129
00:04:33,540 --> 00:04:34,874
not to come here either.

130
00:04:34,874 --> 00:04:37,430
(scoffs) Okay, you do that.
We have family

131
00:04:37,430 --> 00:04:38,445
entertainment as well.

132
00:04:38,445 --> 00:04:40,580
Sound of Music.
No one shows nothing.

133
00:04:40,580 --> 00:04:43,490
Three times, really?

134
00:04:43,490 --> 00:04:44,417
I'm 17.

135
00:04:46,686 --> 00:04:47,854
Well, I don't know,
you're the lawyer.

136
00:04:47,854 --> 00:04:50,230
You know,
if this invention's big,

137
00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:51,424
mama wants a taste.

138
00:04:51,424 --> 00:04:53,930
President Hagemeyer,
a word.

139
00:04:53,930 --> 00:04:54,894
Here's a word: out.

140
00:04:54,894 --> 00:04:56,363
I understand
you're moving forward

141
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:57,931
with Sheldon's
grant database.

142
00:04:57,931 --> 00:04:59,532
I was an intrinsic
part of that.

143
00:04:59,532 --> 00:05:01,401
Hm, Sheldon didn't mention you.

144
00:05:01,401 --> 00:05:04,204
Of course he didn't, that
pint-sized little credit hog.

145
00:05:04,204 --> 00:05:06,206
Do I need to redo
these contracts?

146
00:05:06,206 --> 00:05:08,541
You betcha.
All right, just hold on.

147
00:05:08,541 --> 00:05:09,776
This is good
for the university.

148
00:05:09,776 --> 00:05:11,478
This isn't about everybody

149
00:05:11,478 --> 00:05:13,279
getting a piece of the pie.

150
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,116
Oh, really? In that contract,
does she get a piece of the pie?

151
00:05:16,116 --> 00:05:18,118
Uh...
Don't answer that,

152
00:05:18,118 --> 00:05:19,919
attorney-client whatever.

153
00:05:19,919 --> 00:05:22,455
Uh, technically my services
are paid for by the uni...

154
00:05:22,455 --> 00:05:24,900
Shut up, Ken.

155
00:05:24,900 --> 00:05:25,625
Linda, be reasonable.

156
00:05:25,625 --> 00:05:27,293
I am.

157
00:05:27,293 --> 00:05:29,896
After all the Sheldon I've
put up with, I deserve this.

158
00:05:29,896 --> 00:05:32,999
You deserve this? My office
is basically his clubhouse.

159
00:05:34,467 --> 00:05:35,769
Okay, I tell you what I'll do.

160
00:05:35,769 --> 00:05:38,405
If Sheldon's okay with it,

161
00:05:38,405 --> 00:05:40,273
you're welcome
to part of his cut.

162
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:41,841
That's not you
doing anything.

163
00:05:44,611 --> 00:05:45,845
Hi there, Connie.

164
00:05:45,845 --> 00:05:48,248
Pastor Jeff.
What can I do for you?

165
00:05:48,248 --> 00:05:51,618
I was hoping we could chat
about your video store.

166
00:05:51,618 --> 00:05:52,619
What about it?

167
00:05:52,619 --> 00:05:54,754
I'm just so glad

168
00:05:54,754 --> 00:05:57,590
it's in the hands
of a good Christian woman.

169
00:05:57,590 --> 00:05:59,250
Where you headed here, padre?

170
00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:01,940
(clears throat)
Well, some of my flock

171
00:06:01,940 --> 00:06:03,263
have concerns about
the movies y'all rent.

172
00:06:03,263 --> 00:06:04,998
You know,
the ones with the

173
00:06:04,998 --> 00:06:06,833
***ual content

174
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:08,501
and whatnot.

175
00:06:08,501 --> 00:06:10,637
If they don't want
to see whatnot,

176
00:06:10,637 --> 00:06:12,605
then they shouldn't
rent whatnot.

177
00:06:12,605 --> 00:06:16,109
I hear you. God gave us
free will. (chuckles)

178
00:06:16,109 --> 00:06:17,877
But you're renting temptation.

179
00:06:17,877 --> 00:06:19,679
And you know who tempts us?

180
00:06:19,679 --> 00:06:20,880
The devil.

181
00:06:21,848 --> 00:06:23,183
So, that's who's making me

182
00:06:23,183 --> 00:06:24,884
want to slam this door
in your face.

183
00:06:24,884 --> 00:06:26,820
I'm just here
to give you a heads-up.

184
00:06:26,820 --> 00:06:28,288
People are upset

185
00:06:28,288 --> 00:06:30,990
and I'd hate to see
your business suffer.

186
00:06:31,958 --> 00:06:33,260
Are you threatening me?

187
00:06:33,260 --> 00:06:34,828
No, uh, I'm sorry.

188
00:06:34,828 --> 00:06:37,297
Uh, let me just
take off my pastor hat,

189
00:06:37,297 --> 00:06:39,199
put on my neighbor cap,

190
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:40,800
and start again.

191
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,969
I'm gonna put on my hat, too.

192
00:06:42,969 --> 00:06:45,710
It's got a big foam finger
on top of it.

193
00:06:45,710 --> 00:06:46,539
Guess which one.

194
00:06:46,539 --> 00:06:47,741
The naughty one?

195
00:06:47,741 --> 00:06:49,242
Bingo.

196
00:06:50,510 --> 00:06:52,479
♪ ♪

197
00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:54,848
Mr. Vance, thank you for taking
the time to see us.

198
00:06:54,848 --> 00:06:56,483
Oh, no problem.
(chuckles)

199
00:06:56,483 --> 00:06:58,918
You know,
I don't ordinarily handle

200
00:06:58,918 --> 00:07:00,987
intellectual property contracts,

201
00:07:00,987 --> 00:07:03,189
I'm more of a slip-and-fall guy.

202
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:06,260
I have seen your face
on those park bench ads.

203
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,895
Oh, you fall in the park,
this is the first thing

204
00:07:08,895 --> 00:07:10,697
you see.

205
00:07:10,697 --> 00:07:12,599
So, as I said on the phone,

206
00:07:12,599 --> 00:07:15,669
our son invented something that
his university's interested in,

207
00:07:15,669 --> 00:07:18,171
but we feel they might be
trying to keep

208
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:19,706
the lion's share for themselves.

209
00:07:19,706 --> 00:07:22,275
You really think
it's gonna be worth something?

210
00:07:22,275 --> 00:07:25,345
University seems to think so.
They want 90% of it.

211
00:07:25,345 --> 00:07:27,213
Oh, is that so?

212
00:07:28,548 --> 00:07:29,616
What's the invention?

213
00:07:29,616 --> 00:07:31,685
We don't really understand it.

214
00:07:31,685 --> 00:07:34,421
Oh, you know, it's a computer...

215
00:07:34,421 --> 00:07:35,955
thing.
(scoffs)

216
00:07:35,955 --> 00:07:38,391
Adding machine and carbon paper
got me this far.

217
00:07:38,391 --> 00:07:39,859
Mm.

218
00:07:39,859 --> 00:07:41,610
What... what am I smelling?

219
00:07:41,610 --> 00:07:43,363
Beef and broccoli.

220
00:07:43,363 --> 00:07:45,131
Chinese place downstairs.

221
00:07:45,131 --> 00:07:47,400
Ooh, do they have good chop
suey? I can never find good...

222
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,402
George.
You were saying?

223
00:07:51,905 --> 00:07:54,708
Sheldon, we need to talk.

224
00:07:54,708 --> 00:07:57,310
You should keep your voice down.
This is a library.

225
00:07:59,713 --> 00:08:01,881
Do you remember when
we came up with the idea

226
00:08:01,881 --> 00:08:03,383
for that grant database?

227
00:08:03,383 --> 00:08:05,218
I remember when
I came up with the idea.

228
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:06,586
Uh, in my office.

229
00:08:06,586 --> 00:08:07,554
In my brain.

230
00:08:07,554 --> 00:08:09,656
Which was in my office.

231
00:08:09,656 --> 00:08:11,257
And, as I recall,

232
00:08:11,257 --> 00:08:13,159
I was the one who suggested
you build a database.

233
00:08:13,159 --> 00:08:16,129
No, you suggested I build
a comic book database.

234
00:08:16,129 --> 00:08:19,265
Which was the underlying idea.

235
00:08:19,265 --> 00:08:21,901
Fire is the underlying idea
for the nuclear power plant,

236
00:08:21,901 --> 00:08:23,470
and no one credits the caveman.

237
00:08:25,238 --> 00:08:26,840
Son...

238
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,175
and I call you son because
I think of you as family.

239
00:08:30,410 --> 00:08:32,412
Is this the way you would
treat your own family?

240
00:08:32,412 --> 00:08:35,281
Not my mom.
Everyone else is on their own.

241
00:08:36,683 --> 00:08:40,353
JEFF (in distance):
Thank you for saying no to sin!

242
00:08:40,353 --> 00:08:43,823
Oh, you got to be kidding me.

243
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:47,594
What are you doing?

244
00:08:47,594 --> 00:08:49,596
We're just asking people
to sign our petition

245
00:08:49,596 --> 00:08:52,799
if they agree that sin
has no place in cinema.

246
00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:55,100
Huh. Clever. Thanks.

247
00:08:55,100 --> 00:08:58,380
And God doesn't want us
seeing people's private parts.

248
00:08:58,380 --> 00:09:00,206
Didn't he make people's
private parts?

249
00:09:00,206 --> 00:09:03,610
He did, and then he made clothes
to cover 'em right up.

250
00:09:03,610 --> 00:09:06,279
(sighs) You are scaring
away my customers.

251
00:09:06,279 --> 00:09:08,214
You know what's scarier? Hell.

252
00:09:08,214 --> 00:09:11,117
Look, you can't just sit here
in front of my store.

253
00:09:11,117 --> 00:09:13,286
Freedom of speech.
we're allowed.

254
00:09:13,286 --> 00:09:15,155
And we're allowed
to rent whatever movies we want.

255
00:09:15,155 --> 00:09:16,623
People can choose
for themselves.

256
00:09:16,623 --> 00:09:18,224
They sure can.

257
00:09:18,224 --> 00:09:21,561
If you love God
and hate the devil, sign here.

258
00:09:21,561 --> 00:09:24,864
Where is your halo? 'Cause
you are an angel. (chuckles)

259
00:09:26,700 --> 00:09:29,690
Let's just see what
the people think about this.

260
00:09:33,473 --> 00:09:34,808
Yeah.

261
00:09:39,813 --> 00:09:41,214
MEEMAW:
What are you doing? We just

262
00:09:41,214 --> 00:09:43,183
finally got those
killjoys out of here.

263
00:09:43,183 --> 00:09:44,384
Yeah, it was amazing.

264
00:09:44,384 --> 00:09:46,119
Have you two lost your minds?

265
00:09:46,119 --> 00:09:47,620
We do not need
this kind of attention.

266
00:09:47,620 --> 00:09:49,356
Attention's good.

267
00:09:49,356 --> 00:09:51,224
Like, free advertising.

268
00:09:51,224 --> 00:09:53,293
We're running an illegal
gambling room in the back.

269
00:09:53,293 --> 00:09:55,128
Oh, that'll be fine.
For you.

270
00:09:55,128 --> 00:09:57,230
If we get arrested,
y'all go to lady jail.

271
00:09:57,230 --> 00:09:59,899
I have to go to scary jail.
I'm too pretty for scary jail.

272
00:09:59,899 --> 00:10:01,468
No more prison movies for you.

273
00:10:01,468 --> 00:10:04,400
So you're saying
we should just give in,

274
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,706
after what that
holy-rolling Muppet

275
00:10:06,706 --> 00:10:08,908
has done to your whole family?

276
00:10:08,908 --> 00:10:10,910
He does look like a Muppet.

277
00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:12,645
All I'm saying is
we need to remember

278
00:10:12,645 --> 00:10:14,347
where the real money's
coming from.

279
00:10:14,347 --> 00:10:16,983
If we want it to keep coming,
you got to back off.

280
00:10:18,485 --> 00:10:21,654
Okay, fine. I'll behave.

281
00:10:22,989 --> 00:10:25,910
When did you start
to be the responsible one?

282
00:10:25,910 --> 00:10:27,360
Hey, I don't like it, either.

283
00:10:28,762 --> 00:10:32,198
Ah, just the young genius
I was hoping to see.

284
00:10:33,166 --> 00:10:35,502
Look, I've heard
from your parents' lawyer,

285
00:10:35,502 --> 00:10:38,400
and I'm a little concerned

286
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,440
that this whole thing
is getting out of hand.

287
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,742
How so?
Well, you know,
lawyers get involved

288
00:10:42,742 --> 00:10:45,945
and everything slows down
and, well, I'm just worried

289
00:10:45,945 --> 00:10:47,947
that someone else might come up

290
00:10:47,947 --> 00:10:49,916
with the same idea
in the meantime.

291
00:10:49,916 --> 00:10:52,180
I didn't think of that.
We should get started.

292
00:10:52,180 --> 00:10:54,187
I agree, but, well,
we can't get started

293
00:10:54,187 --> 00:10:55,955
until the paperwork is signed.

294
00:10:55,955 --> 00:10:58,124
Ugh! Those darn lawyers.

295
00:10:58,124 --> 00:10:59,693
Well, how can we fix this?

296
00:10:59,693 --> 00:11:03,763
Hmm. Well, I guess

297
00:11:03,763 --> 00:11:07,567
if you could, well,
convince your parents to sign,

298
00:11:07,567 --> 00:11:09,690
then we could get rolling.

299
00:11:11,237 --> 00:11:13,606
And to make it worth your while,

300
00:11:13,606 --> 00:11:17,310
how about we put your name
on one of these buildings?

301
00:11:17,310 --> 00:11:20,814
How would you feel about
"Sheldon Cooper Science Center"?

302
00:11:20,814 --> 00:11:23,216
I'm sorry. Did you say,
"Sheldon Cooper Science Center,"

303
00:11:23,216 --> 00:11:25,418
or "Sheldon Cooper's
Science Center"?

304
00:11:25,418 --> 00:11:26,586
Well, which do you like?

305
00:11:26,586 --> 00:11:27,721
I prefer the possessive.

306
00:11:27,721 --> 00:11:29,255
It makes it much more mine.

307
00:11:29,255 --> 00:11:31,991
Then "Sheldon Cooper's
Science Center" it is.

308
00:11:31,991 --> 00:11:34,594
(laughs)
So, do we have a deal?

309
00:11:34,594 --> 00:11:36,496
Okay.
Excellent.

310
00:11:36,496 --> 00:11:39,733
Now get out of here
before I pinch those cheeks.

311
00:11:41,601 --> 00:11:42,769
(sighs)

312
00:11:42,769 --> 00:11:44,604
(knocking)

313
00:11:44,604 --> 00:11:47,507
I will remind you
my wife is a police officer.

314
00:11:47,507 --> 00:11:49,976
I've just come
with a little peace offering.

315
00:11:51,411 --> 00:11:55,582
My last copy of Basic Instinct.

316
00:11:55,582 --> 00:11:59,619
So there you go.
No more naked ladies,

317
00:11:59,619 --> 00:12:00,854
no more Michael Douglas'

318
00:12:00,854 --> 00:12:03,790
bare butt giving me
impure thoughts.

319
00:12:04,758 --> 00:12:07,360
The town is safe again.

320
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,829
Well, thank you
for seeing reason.

321
00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:12,599
Well, what kind of good
Christian woman would I be

322
00:12:12,599 --> 00:12:13,867
if I didn't?

323
00:12:13,867 --> 00:12:16,302
(chuckles)
So, we square?

324
00:12:16,302 --> 00:12:19,139
It's not about you and me
being square, Connie.

325
00:12:19,139 --> 00:12:22,942
It's about you
and El Jefe Grande.

326
00:12:22,942 --> 00:12:25,945
Mm-hmm.

327
00:12:25,945 --> 00:12:28,548
Well, goodbye.

328
00:12:28,548 --> 00:12:30,884
You know,
I'd be happy to come down

329
00:12:30,884 --> 00:12:32,852
and let you know what
other movies are objectionable

330
00:12:32,852 --> 00:12:35,789
so we don't have
another situation on our hands.

331
00:12:35,789 --> 00:12:39,559
You want to take
more movies out of my store?

332
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,620
Again, not me,
but there's a guy with a thumb

333
00:12:42,620 --> 00:12:44,297
a lot bigger
than Siskel or Ebert's.

334
00:12:48,702 --> 00:12:50,704
Sheldon, thank you
for coming in.

335
00:12:50,704 --> 00:12:53,673
I want to apologize
for our little tiff earlier.

336
00:12:53,673 --> 00:12:54,741
You're forgiven.

337
00:12:54,741 --> 00:12:56,409
Oh. Great.

338
00:12:56,409 --> 00:13:00,880
I found something that might
be of interest to you.

339
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,917
An authentic signature
from Richard Feynman.

340
00:13:03,917 --> 00:13:05,251
Where did you get this?

341
00:13:05,251 --> 00:13:06,686
Details aren't important.

342
00:13:06,686 --> 00:13:09,890
Is this a restraining order?
Not important.

343
00:13:09,890 --> 00:13:10,590
That's actually a really
good way to get autographs.

344
00:13:10,590 --> 00:13:12,225
I'll have to keep that in mind.

345
00:13:12,225 --> 00:13:14,494
Well, it's yours, from
one scientist to another,

346
00:13:14,494 --> 00:13:16,290
and that's my point, really.

347
00:13:16,290 --> 00:13:18,898
You and I-- we need
to stick together.
Why?

348
00:13:18,898 --> 00:13:21,267
Because this university
is filled with people

349
00:13:21,267 --> 00:13:23,103
who want to exploit our ideas.

350
00:13:23,103 --> 00:13:24,738
That's not my experience.

351
00:13:24,738 --> 00:13:26,706
President Hagemeyer
just offered me my own building.

352
00:13:26,706 --> 00:13:28,742
You're being manipulated,
you don't even know it.

353
00:13:28,742 --> 00:13:31,110
Sheldon, I've seen this
a thousand times--

354
00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:34,848
a brilliant young mind
like yours taken advantage of.

355
00:13:34,848 --> 00:13:36,416
But isn't that
what you're trying to do?

356
00:13:36,416 --> 00:13:38,418
Absolutely not.

357
00:13:38,418 --> 00:13:40,286
President Hagemeyer's
was a bribe.

358
00:13:40,286 --> 00:13:44,290
That is a gift
from one peer to another.

359
00:13:44,290 --> 00:13:46,393
(laughs)
So what do you say?

360
00:13:46,393 --> 00:13:48,610
Are you a scientist

361
00:13:48,610 --> 00:13:49,863
or are you a pawn
of the administration?

362
00:13:49,863 --> 00:13:51,197
A scientist.

363
00:13:51,197 --> 00:13:52,966
Yes, you are. (laughs)

364
00:13:52,966 --> 00:13:54,768
So, we have a deal?

365
00:13:54,768 --> 00:13:57,537
Okay.

366
00:13:57,537 --> 00:13:59,139
MEEMAW:
I'd like to order

367
00:13:59,139 --> 00:14:01,541
five more copies
of Basic Instinct

368
00:14:01,541 --> 00:14:05,545
and a couple more
of Fatal Attraction.

369
00:14:05,545 --> 00:14:09,820
Anything else?
Ooh, uh, get a
Last Temptation of Christ.

370
00:14:09,820 --> 00:14:10,717
That'll really
piss people off.

371
00:14:10,717 --> 00:14:13,720
And a copy of
The Last Temptation of Christ

372
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,155
to really piss people off.

373
00:14:15,155 --> 00:14:17,570
Thank you.

374
00:14:17,570 --> 00:14:18,825
What are y'all doing?

375
00:14:18,825 --> 00:14:21,161
Well, I tried to be nice
but he kept pushing.

376
00:14:21,161 --> 00:14:22,629
Yeah, so now we're pushing back.

377
00:14:22,629 --> 00:14:24,640
Why do you care?

378
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:25,498
Because I don't like
anybody telling me how

379
00:14:25,498 --> 00:14:27,400
to run my business,
especially him.

380
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,569
This is not your business.

381
00:14:29,569 --> 00:14:31,805
That room back there
with the shady piles of money--

382
00:14:31,805 --> 00:14:35,241
that's your business.
Your secret, illegal business.

383
00:14:35,241 --> 00:14:37,770
So, what, are we just supposed

384
00:14:37,770 --> 00:14:39,179
to become
a Christian video store now?

385
00:14:39,179 --> 00:14:41,247
You know what?
In this town, I...

386
00:14:41,247 --> 00:14:43,850
No! I am not
gonna let that man win.

387
00:14:43,850 --> 00:14:46,186
Hi. I'm with Channel 7 news.

388
00:14:46,186 --> 00:14:47,921
Can I help you?

389
00:14:47,921 --> 00:14:51,191
A local pastor has put together
a petition of citizens

390
00:14:51,191 --> 00:14:54,194
concerned about the vulgar
content of your video store.

391
00:14:54,194 --> 00:14:55,695
Would you care to comment?

392
00:14:55,695 --> 00:14:58,198
Damn straight I would.
I want him to know...

393
00:14:58,198 --> 00:14:59,966
Give me. Give me.
No, give me that. I want...

394
00:15:01,301 --> 00:15:03,203
I can assure you
there's nothing immoral

395
00:15:03,203 --> 00:15:05,105
or indecent going on here.

396
00:15:08,775 --> 00:15:10,877
Mm. So, we were talking
to the lawyer...

397
00:15:10,877 --> 00:15:12,212
Here comes the divorce.

398
00:15:12,212 --> 00:15:14,247
We are not getting divorced.

399
00:15:14,247 --> 00:15:15,482
Then why do we have a lawyer?

400
00:15:15,482 --> 00:15:16,816
Sheldon invented something

401
00:15:16,816 --> 00:15:18,151
that the university's
interested in

402
00:15:18,151 --> 00:15:19,953
and it could be
worth some money.

403
00:15:19,953 --> 00:15:21,888
You always were
my favorite brother.

404
00:15:21,888 --> 00:15:23,957
This morning you licked your
finger and put it in my ear.

405
00:15:23,957 --> 00:15:25,492
That means I like you.

406
00:15:25,492 --> 00:15:27,394
Anyway, the lawyer
wants to sit down with you

407
00:15:27,394 --> 00:15:29,429
before he gets into it
with the university.

408
00:15:29,429 --> 00:15:31,765
I don't know. I hear
lawyers slow things down.

409
00:15:31,765 --> 00:15:32,932
What?

410
00:15:32,932 --> 00:15:34,734
Shelly, this is for your future.

411
00:15:34,734 --> 00:15:38,400
We're just trying to make sure
that you're taken care of.

412
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,773
I don't care about money.

413
00:15:39,773 --> 00:15:42,776
Well, someday you might when
you have your own wife and kids.

414
00:15:42,776 --> 00:15:44,511
I don't see that happening.

415
00:15:44,511 --> 00:15:47,280
No one sees that happening.
And I say that with love.

416
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,349
Sheldon, this is important
to all of us.

417
00:15:49,349 --> 00:15:51,584
Uh, you got to think
about your family.

418
00:15:51,584 --> 00:15:53,453
Shelly, he's right.

419
00:15:53,453 --> 00:15:56,790
Did you put extra hot dogs
in this spaghetti?

420
00:15:56,790 --> 00:15:58,425
I did.

421
00:15:59,426 --> 00:16:02,262
Okay, I'll talk with the lawyer.

422
00:16:03,196 --> 00:16:05,265
(whispering):
You're good.

423
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:09,669
Well, I'm-I'm so glad that
we can all sit down together.

424
00:16:09,669 --> 00:16:13,206
And I have a feeling we are
gonna come to a quick agreement.

425
00:16:14,207 --> 00:16:17,100
I have a feeling we are.

426
00:16:17,100 --> 00:16:18,445
So, I have redrawn
the contracts...

427
00:16:18,445 --> 00:16:20,180
Sorry we're late.

428
00:16:20,180 --> 00:16:22,515
What are you doing here?
And who's he?

429
00:16:22,515 --> 00:16:24,150
I'm his cousin.
And lawyer.

430
00:16:24,150 --> 00:16:25,819
Really, Grant?

431
00:16:25,819 --> 00:16:27,821
Yeah, really.
Let me talk for you.

432
00:16:27,821 --> 00:16:29,189
Yeah, really.

433
00:16:29,189 --> 00:16:31,658
Okay. Fine, fine. Stay.

434
00:16:32,826 --> 00:16:34,994
It really doesn't make
any difference because

435
00:16:34,994 --> 00:16:38,531
Sheldon agrees that this is in
the best interest of everyone.

436
00:16:38,531 --> 00:16:40,900
You said that?
Yes.

437
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:43,403
Hold on. Sheldon told me... Grant.

438
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:46,506
Sheldon informed my client

439
00:16:46,506 --> 00:16:48,575
that their interests
were aligned.

440
00:16:48,575 --> 00:16:50,710
You told him that?
Yes.

441
00:16:50,710 --> 00:16:51,845
You told me

442
00:16:51,845 --> 00:16:52,846
he was on our side.

443
00:16:52,846 --> 00:16:54,547
Didn't you tell them that?

444
00:16:54,547 --> 00:16:55,548
Yes.

445
00:16:55,548 --> 00:16:57,250
Which is it, Sheldon?

446
00:16:57,250 --> 00:17:00,387
Yeah, Sheldon.
Whose side are you on?

447
00:17:00,387 --> 00:17:02,550
Shelly?

448
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:05,859
I don't know and I don't care.

449
00:17:05,859 --> 00:17:07,360
I just want
to build the database.

450
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:09,896
Why can't this just
be about the science?

451
00:17:09,896 --> 00:17:12,232
W-Why are you making it
all about the money?

452
00:17:13,199 --> 00:17:15,669
This was supposed to be
exciting, and you're ruining it.

453
00:17:18,104 --> 00:17:20,573
Oh...

454
00:17:20,573 --> 00:17:23,343
I'm telling you,
I can do it on my own.

455
00:17:23,343 --> 00:17:24,711
Shelly?

456
00:17:25,679 --> 00:17:27,881
I don't want to be
in the middle anymore.

457
00:17:27,881 --> 00:17:30,917
I know. I...
I came out to apologize.

458
00:17:30,917 --> 00:17:32,585
We made that all about us

459
00:17:32,585 --> 00:17:34,421
and it should be
about what you want.

460
00:17:34,421 --> 00:17:36,256
Thanks.

461
00:17:36,256 --> 00:17:40,226
So... why don't you take
a little time

462
00:17:40,226 --> 00:17:42,595
and figure out
what's gonna make you happy?

463
00:17:42,595 --> 00:17:43,897
I will.

464
00:17:43,897 --> 00:17:45,365
Okay, I did.

465
00:17:45,365 --> 00:17:48,735
Oh. All right.
Well, what did you decide?

466
00:17:48,735 --> 00:17:51,571
I'm cutting everybody out
and doing this myself.
What?

467
00:17:51,571 --> 00:17:53,973
I don't need the university
and I don't need Dr. Linkletter.

468
00:17:53,973 --> 00:17:55,909
How are you gonna
pay for all this?

469
00:17:55,909 --> 00:17:57,544
I'll find private investors.

470
00:17:57,544 --> 00:17:59,446
They can pay for it
on the condition I'm left alone.

471
00:17:59,446 --> 00:18:02,615
Are you sure you don't want to
think about this a little more?

472
00:18:02,615 --> 00:18:04,217
Perhaps you're right.

473
00:18:04,217 --> 00:18:06,720
Done. I'm good.
Where you going?

474
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,922
My dorm. I have some calls
to make. Love you.

475
00:18:08,922 --> 00:18:10,957
Love you, too.

476
00:18:21,340 --> 00:18:22,736
Don't you have Die Hard?

477
00:18:22,736 --> 00:18:24,971
Not anymore.
Why?

478
00:18:24,971 --> 00:18:27,307
It had that bad word in it.

479
00:18:27,307 --> 00:18:31,411
What?
"Yippee-ki-yay," etcetera.

480
00:18:32,312 --> 00:18:34,214
This store sucks.

481
00:18:34,214 --> 00:18:35,248
We know.

482
00:18:35,248 --> 00:18:37,517
Maybe you'd like
The Singing Nun. Nope.

483
00:18:39,919 --> 00:18:43,289
Has anybody ever rented
The Singing Nun?

484
00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:47,270
Just Pastor Jeff.

485
00:18:47,270 --> 00:18:48,261
That figures.

486
00:18:48,695 --> 00:18:50,230
Wait a minute.

487
00:18:50,230 --> 00:18:52,665
You can see all the movies

488
00:18:52,665 --> 00:18:54,601
that Pastor Jeff ever rented?
You can see

489
00:18:54,601 --> 00:18:56,436
any movie everyone's rented.

490
00:18:56,436 --> 00:18:58,138
Well, let's just see

491
00:18:58,138 --> 00:19:00,940
if he's as pious
as he pretends to be.

492
00:19:00,940 --> 00:19:04,477
Let's find out. (grunts)

493
00:19:04,477 --> 00:19:05,578
(typing)

494
00:19:05,578 --> 00:19:08,140
Jesus Christ Superstar,

495
00:19:08,140 --> 00:19:10,517
Jesus of Nazareth,

496
00:19:10,517 --> 00:19:11,851
The Blood of Jesus.

497
00:19:11,851 --> 00:19:13,286
Good Lord.

498
00:19:13,286 --> 00:19:14,821
How many Jesus movies are there?

499
00:19:14,821 --> 00:19:16,456
Oh, what about his wife?

500
00:19:16,456 --> 00:19:19,250
Oh.
Mm.

501
00:19:19,250 --> 00:19:21,828
Show me, show me. Mm.

502
00:19:24,297 --> 00:19:25,532
Hello, Pastor Jeff.

503
00:19:25,532 --> 00:19:26,933
(door closes)
Hey there, Connie.

504
00:19:26,933 --> 00:19:28,535
What brings you by?

505
00:19:28,535 --> 00:19:32,639
I just wanted to drop off
a little gift.

506
00:19:32,639 --> 00:19:34,441
Dirty Dancing?

507
00:19:34,441 --> 00:19:36,643
I think you know
how I feel about this movie.

508
00:19:36,643 --> 00:19:38,712
I do.

509
00:19:38,712 --> 00:19:41,214
I also know how your wife
feels about it.

510
00:19:41,214 --> 00:19:42,515
What?

511
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:44,117
She's rented it five times.

512
00:19:44,117 --> 00:19:46,953
That's a lot
of shirtless Patrick Swayze.

513
00:19:46,953 --> 00:19:48,955
Must be some mistake.

514
00:19:48,955 --> 00:19:51,791
There isn't. Shall we talk about
Fatal Attraction?

515
00:19:51,791 --> 00:19:53,960
Do we have to?
Six times.

516
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,796
Are you blackmailing me?
Yeah.

517
00:19:56,796 --> 00:19:58,331
Well, it's not gonna work.

518
00:19:58,331 --> 00:20:00,500
I'm a man of principles
and I stand by them.

519
00:20:00,500 --> 00:20:02,335
And I respect that.

520
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:06,573
So let's talk about what your
church elders are renting.

521
00:20:06,573 --> 00:20:08,575
Oh, come on.
Want to know?

522
00:20:08,575 --> 00:20:09,809
Is it bad?

523
00:20:09,809 --> 00:20:12,879
It's Porky's bad.
(whimpers)

524
00:20:12,879 --> 00:20:14,681
How your principles feeling now?

525
00:20:15,582 --> 00:20:17,384
ADULT SHELDON:
I'm going to end this story

526
00:20:17,384 --> 00:20:19,753
so you don't have to see
a grown man beg for mercy.

527
00:20:19,753 --> 00:20:21,321
Connie, please...
