There most likely were many variables that contributed to how Leonard turned out the way he did, besides just his mother.  Such as his father, his siblings, that uncle he spoke fondly of.

while i agree with you, i do believe that the mother-child bond is the one that affect's one's personality the most!

To be fair PEnny in S4 went all the way to get Sheldon's gaming account back. She's always loved Leonard's geeky side. But she can be a tad judgemental. Leonard did say he did things for her when they were dating in S3, just to get sex lol. So I think its healthy they are discussing their issues properly.

[snow*flower]

But the thing is that this episode sorta focuses on Penny's feelings about her relationship about Leonard.  And with angsty, there wasn't really any.  And if anybody remembers the ending, I hope it will posted soon because I don't remember what Penny said she missed because I mean I don't know what she meant by that.  Each character said they missed something.

And btw, the episode in 910 ends with that oh-so familiar song that when Sheldon and Amy kiss and I can't remember the title of the name of it.

They showed 9x10 and not 11?

Trying to imagine Lois Wilkerson as a helpful psychologist instead of a stressed mother. No doubt she will pull it off.

Yep, I enjoyed it and it was very good.

I just know that this is the closest I can probably get about the ending.  So, Sheldon and Amy are on skype and they say they miss one another and then B/H says they miss Stuart and then I think Penny's next and then Leonard who is playing on a jump rope which I'm assuming says I miss this and then B/H are in their room asleep and then you see Stuart and he's says I miss this.

Anyways, I could be completely wrong about some of them except for the Shamy and Stuart scenes.

Wait Stuart was in their room?!

Thanks so much for all the information, Snow! This sounds like such a lovely episode - really looking forward to it! <3

Yes, and as creepy as that sounds it was actually quite adorable.  You just see Bernadette and Howard asleep in the dark and then it reveals a googly-eyed Stuart smiling and watching them like a baby.

Thank you very much for the update. I was hoping they would have a regular episode and it sounds like they have. Very good

IMO the "Call me maybe" flashmob was better. Sure, this one is good too and gold just because Jim dancing is hilarious, but I don't like the song.

found it...lol...funny stuff

[Chiany]

Thank you for all the information.

Sounds like a pretty boring episode, besides the Shamy cuteness.
Penny talking down Leonard is nothing new, and Stuart being creepy either.

Just hope Sheldon names the new planet/asteroid after Amy.

Thanks to the people providing the spoilers! Sounds like a nice episode!!

Well I know you hate Leonard and Penny lol. But Penny wasen't talking down Leonard again. From what I gather, She was discussing her doing it in the past, and being aware of it now. I woulden't call it boring at all. Leonard and Penny going to a Therapist sounds endering. Nothing new? Leonard and Penny have never gone to a thearapist before to discuss their issues, are you saying they always do that? Anyway nothing new from Chiany.

If Stuart finally moves out and gains some maturity instead of the trite "we pity him so we'll let him stay" plot, do you think they may bring Lucy back eventually as his girlfriend, therefore giving him... something in his life? (And yes, phantagrae, I know your opinion about that.)

Hope not, there are to many characters already.

don't get me wrong, I liked Lucy, and Kate played her really well.
But the show is simply to crowded with 4 couples + Stuart.
5 Couples would be even harder to find time for in each episode.

I guess, but if they managed to waste so many time on (by this point more than a little repugnant) "Stuart-the-mooch" storyline, they could as well give him something good in his life without making him... well, a mooch. And I think that they have wasted a lot of potential with Lucy. And bringing her back would be a nice surprise.

Espicially since he's a former Shamy shipper. Anything's better than seeing ugly Dave on Thursday and the Shamy overkill that's been going on lately.

Lucy's plot line was to get Raj to talk. It worked. she could not interact with people and thus didn't fit into the show. Her character would have to change significantly. I know you don't like Emily but besides her creepiness (which hasn't been shown the last couple of times she's been on) she fits better with the other characters. I agree with you on Stuart the mooch. I like him but IMO he has been on way too much.

As much as I love Stuart, I think he functions best as a plot device or an audience proxy.  The mooch story was just a vehicle to tell a story about Howardette.  Small indications that his life is on the upswing are enough for me.  

 

That being said, I wouldn't mind him having a fling with Leonard's mom, as someone suggested in chat ages ago.  Though it's almost entirely because I like writing Stuverly.

1. See episode when it airs for the best version of this. LOL.

2. Not everything I saw tonight will be remembered and posted here. I don't take notes any more like I did in the old days and even then I couldn't get everything.

3. A scene or two may also be out of order here but at least you'll know what happens. LOL.

4. I don't remember much of the exact dialogue spoken from all the characters tonight so I'll mostly be describing the scenes the best I can so at least that gives you a little something.

Title: The Sales Call Sublimation

Directed By: Mark Cendrowski

Story By: Steve Holland, Jim Reynolds and Saladin Patterson

Teleplay By: Steven Molaro, Maria Ferrari and Anthony Del Broccolo

The episode begins with a Skype Call between Sheldon and Amy.

*Amy is in a motel room because she's away for the weekend for some kind of neurobiology related conference type thing. Sheldon asks her how her motel room is. She replies that it's nice but only the third best of all the Best Westerns she's stayed at so far (I believe that was the motel she named off). Sheldon replies by talking about which Best Buys are his favorite. They go back in forth on that for a moment in their unique Shamy way. Amy tells Sheldon that she wishes he was there and of course, being that it had to do with neurobiology, Sheldon was offended that she said that and she responded with, "I wish you WEREN'T here?" which made him smile as if she said something romantic and I forget what he says here.

*Since Amy is busy for the weekend, Sheldon asks the guys who would like to get their, "Shel-DON (Shel-On...hang out with him)" Howard says that he and Bernie could use a pair of extra hands to help clean at the house. Sheldon isn't interested. Raj then suggests that Sheldon can come with him to the big telescope to see if they can discover any new planets, etc. Sheldon likes his idea a lot but wants to hear what Leonard has going on first in which Leonard replied that he'd really like to get his "Sheld-Off" for the weekened.

*Penny comes home and (Leonard walks over and kisses her cheek after she's in the door) is bummed out because Dr. Gallo won't see her so she can pitch her pharmaceutical stuff to her. I believe it's Howard that come up with the idea that Leonard become Dr. Gallo's patient to help Penny get in that way. Penny likes the idea. Leonard argues that there's nothing wrong with him. The three guys list off three things including sexual insecurity (Sheldon lists that one, go figure. LOL) that's wrong with him and Leonard says that he has none of those issues and Penny replies, "...and denial...". End the in, Leonard decided to go forward with the plan.

*At Howardette's house. Howard and Bernie are in bed after sex. There's a knock on the door from Stuart. They debate on whether or not to let him in before allowing him to come into the room even though they were both still naked under the covers. He reveals to them that he's moving out into this own place and thanks them for everything they've done for him. He then looks around the room and remarks that it was his first time in there while they were awake.

*Leonard arrives at Dr.Gallo's office and she welcomes him and asks him if he's the son of Dr. Beverly Hofstader and he replies "yes" and asks her if she knows her.

"I don't know her personally but I've read all her books." Dr. Gallo said.

Dr. Gallo went on to say that she doesn't agree with Beverly's way of child rearing and asked Leonard if it was okay for her to make such a statement in which he said, "Yes! Sing it! Rent a plane and write it in the sky!" He let Dr. Gallo know more about how rough it was having Beverly for a mom and what he went through. That even on his birthday he sends his mom a card with a little money in it because she once told him that his birthday was HER accomplishment. That's why his birthday was never celebrated.

*Sheldon and Raj are at the lab that features the large telescope. Sheldon is walking around bored and Raj is sitting at a computer typing.

"What are you doing?" Sheldon asks him.

"Checking the white balance of the lens." (He says something like that) Raj replies.

Sheldon walks closer and asks, "What are you doing now?"

"Checking the white balance of the lens." Raj replies.

Sheldon sits next to Raj on the counter top and asks, "How about now?"

"Checking the white balance and wishing you had a coloring book." Raj gets up from his chair annoyed and starts walking across the room.

Sheldon suggests that he'd be more useful if Raj gave him something to do. He said his father took him to work once as a child and he found out in 10 minutes who was talking money from the register. It was his dad. Sheldon's dad was fired and the owner gave him a fudgesicle as a reward for outing him.

Raj showed him over to another computer and asked him to find any patterns or anomalies in the very large database that would possibly indicate a new planet. Sheldon sits down and discovers a pattern immediately which Raj thought was impossible and asked him how he discovered it. Sheldon replied, "You know how prime numbers appear red and double prime numbers appear pink and smell like gasoline?" "No..." Raj replied. "Well, I guess I'm just a special boy." Sheldon replied and he also suggested that he deserved a fudgesicle.

*Howardette are packing some last items into the trunk of Stuarts car for him, as he is moving out. Howard makes a comment about how they can be romantic in any room of the house when Stuart is gone. Stuart then comes out, says good-bye to them and that again, he was thankful for everything they did for him while he stayed there. Stuart drives off and we see Howard in only his tightie whities and socks in the garage posing and sugguesting that he and Bernie can start there (having sex in any room).

*Penny is in Shelnerd's aprtment making herself and sandwich when Leonard comes home. He seems accomplished after his visit with Dr. Gallo and saying that she helped him to see that his feelings matter. Penny said, "No body cares" (throw away joke) and asked him about the other thing and which Leonard let her know that Dr. Gallo would be happy to have her visit to she can pitch her meds and Penny hugged him and said she has the best husband ever or something along those lines.

*Sheldon and Raj are in the lab. Raj says that once they combind all the images they have, they will be able to tell what it is that Sheldon discovered. As long as what they discovered had moons orbiting it, he'd be happy. Raj then breaks the news that it's just a medium sized asteroid that they found. Sheldon was bummed at first and said that asteroids are the chicken fingers of the menu of space.

"Actually, I like chicken fingers." Raj says.

"Me too, I just couldn't think of a metophor." Sheldon said.

Eventually, Sheldon warms up to the asteroid and even calls it "cute" and so does Raj. Raj mentions that they get to name it.

*Howardette are in Stuarts old room cleaning it up. Bernie finds the stuff bear that Stuart got when they took him to the fair. "Wait.....are we actually missing him?" Howard asks her. "Noooo, that's not what this feeling is." Bernie replies.

They tell the story of how he once tried to deny he ate their blueberry pie when his teeth were all stained blue. Howard says it was cute and Bernie says, "Ewww, we are missing him!"

*Penny is now in Dr. Gallo's office pitching her meds and asks if Dr. Gallo has any questions after her presentation. Dr. Gallo says, "I have one question....why would you make your husband pretend to be a patient to get to me?" Penny blinks her eyes before saying, "I mean questions about the (whatever meds she was talking about)." and pushes a pamplet towards Dr. Gallo. Dr. Gallo then goes into psychologist mode and begins to question why are girl like her would marry a guy like Leonard. Penny replies that she used to wear a lot of tank tops so it wasn't difficult...

*Raj and Sheldon come home to S/L apartment. Raj talks about how they can combine the two of their names to name the asteriod.

Sheldon suggests "Cooper"

Raj asks why/how.

Sheldon answers by saying that that Koo is from "Koothrapoli" and "per" is from Cooper.

Raj is actually considering it now that he knows is starts with a "K". Sheldon then decides he no longer likes it. Leonard sugguests that they both combine their girlfriends names instead to show their girlfriends how special they are to him. Sheldon likes the idea and says that it was seem romantic when it's in fact a rock in space that will get him out of Valentines Day forever. Raj also likes the idea. Sheldon now comes up with "Amy" as the name (LOL). A-M from Amy and Y from Emily. Raj is not impressed.

*Penny is still with Dr. Gallo and is now lying down on the couch, still talking to her. Gallo has apparently made it clear that Penny is yet another person trying to behave like a mom to Leonard. Penny said how can she not with all the Star Wars toys in his room and asked her how would she feel if she tried to have sex with a hairy (forgot the characters name) staring at her. The Dr. said she's from the 70s and more okay than she'd think or something along those lines. Penny also mentioned the man-child, Sheldon, in their life. The Dr. said that Leonard mentioned him and she almost didn't think he was real. Penny said he's as real as they fine she once got for using too much toilet paper. I forgot everything word in this scene but Penny, like Leonard, enjoyed talking with Dr. Gallo. Gallo suggested she get on some anxiety meds. Penny said fine but not the ones she pushed that make her go into fits of homicidal rage.

*Sheldon is on Skype with Amy again and is telling her about his weekend. She says, "I miss you." and he replues, "I miss you as well." He tells her about the asteroid that he and Raj discoverd and that they called it, "Amy" Amy smiled and said, "How romantic." Then her face gets serious and she asks was Raj okay with it being called Amy. Sheldon then tells her that they made a deal that all their children (I forgot if he said IF or WHEN they had children) would be named, "Raj."

"All of them?" Amy asked.

"Even the girls." Sheldon replied.

So, I think I hit every scene?? If not, prepare to be surprised. LOL.

The tag was just creepy Stuart in the bedroom of Howardette staring at them as they slept in the darkness and saying to himself, "I've missed this." LOL.

THE END. I'll write about BTS later.....at some point......
