LEONARD: Not a good time,Sheldon.
SHELDON: Penny. Penny. Penny.
PENNY: Oh,this is ridicules.What?
SHELDON: Hello,Penny I realize you're currently at the mercy of your primitive biological urges, but as you have an entire lifetime of poor decisions ahead of you,may I interrupt this one?
PENNY: It's great to see you too. Come on in.
SHELDON: Wolowitz has informed me of your grand deception. Do you have anything to say for yourself?
LEONARD: Yes,I feel terrible about it. I will never forgive myself,I don't expect you to,either, and I would really appreciate it if you would leave me with Penny for a session of self-criticism and repentance.
PENNY: Okay,can someone please tell me what's going on here?
SHELDON: What's going on is I was lead to believe I was making groundbreaking strides in science, when in fact,I was being fed false data at the hands of Wolowitz,Koothrappali and your furry little boy toy.
PENNY: Is that true?
LEONARD: It was the only way to make him happy.
PENNY: Well,why'd you have to make him happy?
LEONARD: Because when he wasn't happy,we wanted to kill him. There was even a plan. We were going to throw his kindle outside, and when he went to get it,lock the door and let him freeze to death.
SHELDON: That seems like a bit of an overreaction.
LEONARD: No,the overreaction was the plan to tie your limbs to four different sled dog teams and yell,"Mush." Look,we kept the original data. You can still publish the actual results.
SHELDON: Yes,but the actual results are unsuccessful and I've already sent an e-mail to everyone at the university explaining that I have confirmed string theory and forever changed man's understanding of the universe.
LEONARD: Aw,see,yeah,you probably shouldn't have done that. So write another e-mail. Set the record straight. It's no big deal.
SHELDON: You're right,Leonard. It's not a big deal. All you did was lie to me,destroy my dream and humiliate me in front of the whole university. That,FYI,was sarcasm. I,in fact,believe it is a big deal.
