Spoilers Leonard And Penny Season 7 *spoiler* Discussion Thread

[Kasey]

Who said anything about a shrine to Leonard?  There is more than enough to call Leonard out on without trying to make him responsible for other actions (i.e. Penny and Raj).

 

Poor Raj my hiney.  In my opinion he is a snake and isn't a nice guy. 

 

I never said he was responsible for Penny and Raj so I don't know where you are getting that correlation...

[I.Am.Molly]

Molly, I have to tell you something. I almost bought a Diet Coke with your brothers name on it but it doesn't mean anything I swear! Ha ha. 

 

 

:o  :o You tramp!  I thought we had something too....   :icon_cry:  

 

 

I said ( about 8 months ago) that the interesting thing was how they all behaved afterwards. They came back from melodrama, acted civilised and stepped forward into a now glorious future. No guns drawn or vendettas held. But its fun to gossip about. Leonard is doing a hell of a job of repressing his anger and Penny has apparently forgiven herself. Even the psycho-monkeys in Raj's head have retreated. Just wait till they sit down to a real Christmas dinner. Be prepared to duck.

 

This is the most important thing. Whatever crap happened, they are all still friends. And lets not forget this is a comedy, almost everything in it is done in jest. So maybe we should try and be a little more lighthearted about it and leave the deeper stuff for fanfiction. it all turned out well in the end.

 

And im sorry but i have real trouble reading duck as duck these days. So that just made me laugh.

[eirwinrommel]

Let us not forget the pact that Howard and Leonard made to Raj that they would not hit on Priya but Leonard did.  Consenting adults aside, Leonard really should have taken Raj's feeling into account with respect to dating his sister.  It's just what's done. 

 

I really don't see where the dislike of Raj is coming from.  Raj has more of a crush on Bernadette than on Penny (except early one when everyone seemed to - even Sheldon if you watch the Pilot again).

 

In any given relationship no one is completely innocent and that was all I was pointing out...

We don't know who hit on who in the previous encounter between Leonard and Priya. We do know Leonard isn't usually that forward. Look how long it took him to ask Penny out. In fact in every other relationship we've seen, he was the recipient of the woman's interest. So there's a good chance Priya was the one who hit on him first.

 

Season 4 episode 6

 

Howard: Okay, forget who’s hotter. The first time Priya came to LA, Leonard and I made a pact out of respect to our friendship, and to you, that neither of us would hit on her.

 

Meanwhile back at the ranch.

 

Scene: A corridor.

 

Priya: It’s really nice to see you again Leonard.

Leonard: Yeah. It’s good to see you too. Here you go.

Priya: Thanks. (Grabs him and kisses him.)

Leonard: Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa. (Looks around.) Okay.

 

So as far as I can tell Priya probably Hit on Leonard, and technically he didn't violate the pact with Howard. As for consideration of feelings about dating friend's ex's or relatives, As I understand it the ratio of men to women in a place like Cal-Tech is such that any unattached woman is fair game as long as she's agreeable. Which is probably why Leonard didn't hold a grudge against Raj over Penny.

I don't know any sister or brother that let another sibling dictate to them who they can be with. Sure they may listen to them and then make their own choice.

Tru DAT. From personal experience. Raj's complaints would not influenced his sister and could have inspired her to go harder. Siblings don't always get along. Sometimes they go to court.

And im sorry but i have real trouble reading duck as duck these days. So that just made me laugh.

Well, as a general principle, you should be prepared... Edited September 3, 2013 by Nogravitasatall

True. I agree. I would think she hit on him first, and probably a lot, since he doesn't see when women hit on him. I think Leonard was mature enough to understand the situation even if he hated what had happened with Raj and Penny.

Find someone else to drink. Like Gerard. Or johnny. No! U can't have johnny. Him and his Bananahammock are mine.

Side bar. This is why jury trials are sometimes vexed.

Plus I have a real problem with grown men making "pinky swears".

What grown man or men make 'pinky swears' anyway especially over women.  Add dibs to the list also.

Even going with the premise of Leonard not breaking the deal with Howard.  Maybe you can answer this. Since Leonard was going "Star Trek" with Priya in Raj's bed(and apartment) and while Raj was there why do you have such a problem with Raj/Penny hookin up in Leonard's bed?

[Tensor]

I suggest that you watch the episodes again.    It is plain that the numbers were correct, and writing what she said without her facial expressions and tone of voice is meaningless. Her "no's" were anything but definitive.    As for a bar not being mentioned, I suggest that you re-watch that episode too.  They are talking about going out having drinks and dancing.   She was speaking to both Berney and Amy.

i

We're just gonna have to agree to disagree. I watch it four-five times, stopped it, ran it backwards, before i wrote the last and I don't see what you are saying. She just looks at Sheldon as if what he is saying is completely nuts. She looks as if she is considering if she is a slut, after Amy's comment, but it nevers looks as if she accepts it. But, evidently you see what you see, and I see what I see.

As for the quote, the one I am referring to is:

"Somewhere where no one’s seen me naked. We may have to drive awhile."

It is in "The Skank Reflex Analysis". 5x01, after Amy tells her about the skank reflex and just before Penny opens the door to find Leonard and Sheldon across the hall. She then shuts the door and asks Amy if she can stay with her. Can you point out the phrase you are referring to and the episode it is from? Maybe we can figure out what the other is referring to .

[3ku11]

Just checking this is still a S7 Lenny Spoiler Thread right haha? Penny has no recollection even to this day, it happened once in Seven years give them both a break and the benefit of the doubt. Besides by 5x02 status quo Penny was helping Raj get a GF, that death chick who used him for his money, Raj ended up crying on Pennys shoulders haha, so it was all back to normal even then and its now two yeara later and Lenny couldent be anymore stronger. And as for Penny's number? Who cares I think its been established her reaction was of shock not confirmation, Sheldon thinks hes a know it all, he cannot possibly know every single variable of every guy Penny's been with, its more circumstancial. And the whole naked bar thing lol come in she was over exagerrating some ppl take Penny way to seriousley. Does it matter who Penny was with or how many when she was younger, point is shes not that person anymore since S2 TBH so move on.

[Chrismo]

Funny thing is the only two people you've ever seen Penny sleep with is Leonard and Raj. Leonard you've seen with Joyce, Leslie, Stephanie, Priya and Penny. You could assume Dr. Plimpton and the Donor. Just an observation.

Penny and Leonard you've seen in bed a thousand times, Raj was a drunken mistake when she wasen't in the state of mind to make consent or any rational decisions what so ever. You could argue Leonard is more promiscious then Penny lol

That was sort of my point. In regards to what the audience has actually seen that is true. Calculating Penny's actual number is just a lot of conjecture.

[Nogravitasatall]

@3ku11, everyone seems happy to hash it out, but if someone cried foul I think policy would allow for a yellow card. So far no one has asked for the fruit platter, but we have skated within inches of banana, maybe.

but it did unearth for me a link to the Closure Alternative and Penny's epiphany, where the last vestiges of the past have died, I think. So that was nice.

go P/L.

I think people need to let go some of the characters short comings or things they did in the past. To me Penny became the real Penny ever since like you said The Closure Alternative and Penny's epiphany when she realized she is passionate about Leonard loved that episode. And ever since that final car scene, I had never seen Penny so intimate and close with Leonard, even the way she sad I love you to Leonard is kinda ironical that she drops it reguarly in conversations now, considering it took her 6 seasons to say it once . Anyway looking forward to what the show has in store for Lenny but also the whole show, thats the thing im a huge Lenny fan they are the reason well Penny at first haha but then their relationship, but I'm a fan of all the characters so I'm sure S7 well be epic the taping report's look very promising.

[SRAM]

Refering to this ? Yep, it is pretty awesome ! These two know their characters and want what is best for them.

 

 

That was some interview.  At one point I thought they were both going to cry.  Those two really have a chemistry.

They've been friends for years and they dated for two years so yeah they are close haha.

Not everyone, It's just that it won't go away right now. If you'd like to start a different discussion, please do. Anybody heard about tonight's taping (the first of two nights this week)?

I heard the taping may be pushed back or delayed not sure if that is true.

Well I hope not. I think (just by the conversation here) that we need our spoiler fix.
