Spoilers Leonard And Penny Season 7 *spoiler* Discussion Thread

[eirwinrommel]

Maybe the reason that Sheldon's crushed is because 1. After four months away, Leonard would rather spend time with Penny than him. and 2. Leonard and Hawking (the only scientist respects [besides himself]) has become friends with Leonard and calls the Apt. wanting to speak to Leonard and not Sheldon.

Actual crushing is out of the question I guess? I ask that because I recall an episode of LA Law where a character literally fell out of the story by backing into an open lift door without checking for an actual lift. She dropped right out of the show.

I was uplifted by it.

And again, what movie? Maybe it's a slow burn, but I can only suspect THAT was a throwaway.

Yeah sure. Picture me dancing. Like Craig Ferguson, not at all like Basil Fawlty. Lol

I so can't wait to see Leonard surprise Penny. Him coming home early is so cool.

[ArmyGirl]

I'm so looking forward to seeing Leonard and Penny and her reaction to finding him waiting on her.  So glad that Leonard decided to be with Penny for a few days before telling everyone he was back.

 

I think someone call this --- that Leonard would surprise Penny, I can't remember who it was but big props to them.

Like Craig or his horse?

This new episode sounds epic. 

 

I do not wish to repeat too much of what I wrote on the S7 spoiler thread however...

 

I love Leonard's idea of staying with Penny for a couple of days, away from everybody else. I find it fantastic not just because it is a charming idea in and by itself or because, effectively, Penny agrees to let his live with her (for two days, sure, but still, she is so pleased to see him back she agrees to let his stay for a full 48 hours) but also because it is as close as they have ever got to a vacation together. When these two leave town, they do so with the rest of the gang. So far, they had never been just together, on their own. It is now done, in the most low key, offbeat, slightly awkward way possible. Wat could possibly be more fitting for these two ? 

 

Also, I genuinely enjoy Penny's reaction to the Leonard/Sheldon feud. She does not want to be a problem for Bert and Ernie and tries her best to calm Sheldon down. It is not the first she has done it but it amuses me every time. She knows how much their friendship matters to them and wants to help them out whenever she can. 

Furthermore, it is heatwarming to know she keeps on parenting Sheldon while Leonard is away. Mommy and Daddy take turns caring for their overgrown baby. How sweet !

I'm hoping The report was wrong, and it was actually Howard who found the movie. Going to be a long month........

 

From Roxanne at the LG

 

And I looked up what was posted about the episode last week... The only major thing I want to clarify is that Sheldon says it was Howard that found the movie online right after Penny moved in, not Leonard. I LOVED all of the Sheldon and Penny scenes. I wasn't bothered by Leonard's first partying scene on the boat, but I couldn't have done without the tag of him sharing the video. The Raj and Howard scenes were pretty good, and had some really funny parts, but I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be building to something with Raj and Mrs Davis, or if it's just a first step in Raj realizing he can have a good conversation instead of just trying to hit on someone

 

 

Thank Cow!!

Thanks so much for bring this over and I am glad it wasn't Leonard that found the video too. We all remember how Howard was back then so I do see him searching for information on Penny and finding the video.

 

I have said before I don't understand why the writers couldn't it at Leonard partying and having funny --- there was no need for crappy video during the tag.  Leonard rarely gets to be in the tag and when we finally get one, this is what we got.

That is better but then the tag on the end seems really unneeded now. It seems more a scene for TAAHM than TBBT. It would have been so much better if Leonard was walking by some guys on a laptop and asked what they were looking at , then when he looks, in surprise, he says that's my girlfriend, with shock or confusion on his face.

I said this on the spoiler thread. Most viewers on TBBT aren't forum observers and trying to see taping reports like us. Since the two episodes are back to back the tag and Leonard being in Penny's apartment are actually going be minutes apart TV watching wise. I just don't think it's going to look as bad as it sounds on paper and most are going to forget about it while watching the second episode.

I think I can copy and paste this gif of "dance of joy" from Shamy to Lenny thread. It's kind of a relief after the awkward and unpleasant Leonard's behaviour from last episode.

Odds are though that Leonard had seen the video. I think they were trying to link Penny's telling Sheldon to Leonard coincidentally watching it on the boat.

I agree with you Chrismo.  I still don't like the tag and I think it should have been edit out.  There was no need to go there and it doesn't seem add anything to the show, imo.

It could be mentioned at a later time like when Sheldon mentioned seeing Penny naked (Adhesive Duck) and Leonard not knowing.

You know the way this was done, Penny doesn't know if Leonard saw it, all she knows is Sheldon and Howard know about it. It sort of makes Sheldon's remark, in a previous episode, about if she took the Porn part, seem a little less cruel, because Sheldon knew she had posed naked before.

No doubt it will come into play again.  It's Leonard after all and the writers can't let this tidbits go unexposed, so when they need to add some tension to Lenny it will pop up.

It just seems that she would think that Sheldon and Howard know Leonard knows too. I think in the porn part episode even Sheldon knew not to mention that video considering all seven were at the apartment  (and Priya). Raj is the only guy that would have escaped because I'm sure it would have been assumed all the guys saw her topless. I couldn't  imagine how Leonard and Howard (and even Sheldon) could explain their way out of that.
