Previously on Young Sheldon. What the
hell is going on?

Mom thinks that I'm crazy.

I thought we weren't supposed to say
stuff like that.

Baby, there's something I need to tell
you. Dr.

Sturgis is not in the kind of hospital
you think he is.

What kind of hospital is he in?

The psychiatric kind.

And you think since he and I are both
gifted, I'm going to end up like him?

baby.

See how valuable a little communication
can be? You do not take credit for this.

You never know where scientific
inspiration will strike.

For Newton, it was under an apple tree.
For Archimedes, it was sitting in a

bathtub. For me, on this particular day,
it had a sweaty people eating meat kind

of vibe.

Sheldon, do you really have to do that
here?

If the management didn't want me to
solve unified field theory, why would

give me a cram?

I told you to crack a window and lay
them in the car.

In a car? It occurred to me that
Maxwell's equations would achieve full

by adding a magnetic monopole.

I drew a ladybug.

All right, Sheldon.

Is it okay to set this down?

I'm a little busy.

Could you come back later?

Sheldon, I'm hungry.

Unless you sit over there.

No, we're going to eat together as a
family.

Instead of electricity, we'll have
magnetricity.

It's getting heavy.

We'll be right over here if you need us.
Let's go.

Bye, ladybug.

Nobody else is stronger than I am.
Yesterday I moved a mountain.

I did not to be your hero. I am a mighty
little man.

Baby,

you need to eat something.

But it looks like I can change the
definitions of electric and magnetic

and rotate the magnetic charge away
mathematically to zero.

Maybe some fried okra would help.

Richard Feynman didn't develop quantum
electrodynamics by filling up on fried

okra. Well, maybe that's because his
mama didn't love him as much as I love

Richard Feynman was Jewish.

His mother didn't give him fried okra.

Oh, what am I missing?

Wake me up one more time and I will
sneeze in your mittens.

A big, wet, snotty one.

Baby, what are you doing?

Working.

Have you been out here all night? No.

Why? What time is it?

7 .30.

Oh, then yeah.

You busy?

I look like I'm busy.

I can't see what you look like. You're
under the sink.

What do you want?

Would you teach me how to throw a
baseball?

What's bringing this on?

Seems fun.

Sure, why not?

Great, I'll get the gloves.

Not now.

So what's new?

I'm worried about Sheldon.

I said new.

He's not sleeping.

He's not eating. We went out for
barbecue last night and he didn't touch

thing. He also started biting his nails.
I've never seen him do that before.

Is he worried about something?

He's fixated on some science problem.

I'm sure he'll solve it and then
everything will go back to normal.

I hope so.

What's going on with John?

Not much.

We write letters back and forth.

That's romantic.

Romantic if you're off to war, not in a
mental hospital.

Well, he's at war with his inner demons.

You're right -handed, yeah?

You don't know?

Okay, smartass, which one am I?

I'm right -handed.

Put this on your left hand.

You ever thrown a ball before?

Just rocks at Sheldon.

You hit him?

Every time.

So we got something to work with.

All right, since you're right -handed,
which I now know, you're going to bring

your arm up and follow through like
this.

You might be a natural.

I'm not surprised.

This is the arm I color with.

I wasn't even aware I was chewing them.

Baby, I think this math problem you're
working on is stressing you out.

It makes sense.

Einstein struggled with it for 30 years
and never found a solution.

Maybe if you stop thinking about it,
it'll just come to you. No, I can't

Sheldon. If I stop, we'll lose momentum.

I'll never solve it. I'll be a failure.
My life will be worthless. Okay, that's

it. You're taking a break from science.

Give me one good reason why I would do
that.

Where is Dr.

Sturgis right now?

That's a good reason.

Remember, you need to look right where
you want the ball to go. Where else

I look?

Well, in the last five minutes, I saw
you watch a butterfly, a squirrel, and

ice cream truck.

You looked at the ice cream truck, too.

Which team has a big red T on their hat?

Texas Rangers.

Is that team we like? Yeah.

That's who most people around here root
for.

Okay. And what's something I can say
about the Rangers?

You know, to sound cool?

Is this about a boy?

No. All right. Sorry.

Now, if you want, you can say, even
though Nolan Ryan is old, the Rangers

still smart to get him.

That's a real thing?

It's a real thing.

How old is Nolan Ryan?

My age.

Ew.

I'm so used to thinking about science,
I'm not sure how to make myself stop. As

soon as I think about not thinking about
it, I'm thinking about it.

Well, why don't you just think about
something else? Like what?

I don't know.

Read a comic book?

How do you think the spider that bit
Peter Parker got radioactive?

Science. How do you think Bruce Banner
got exposed to gamma rays?

Science. All right. When the green
goblin flies... Is that all right?

Science. I know you don't want to hear
this, but I find prayer can bring

incredible peace of mind. Come on, Mary.
I'm trying to help the kid.

You just need a new hobby.

Very well. What are yours?

Smoking, drinking, and gambling.

But we can find you something almost as
fun.

Let's switch again!

Come on, everyone!

Come on, Sheldon!

Let's get that blood pumping!

I'd rather not.

Do it.

A little exercise helps get your head
out of your butt.

What do you think?

I think I hate this.

Well, you're not thinking about science
now, am I right?

I'm thinking about how miserable I am.

What else we got?

Are you positive other people's fingers
haven't been in this?

I made sure to get you a new one. It
doesn't look new. It's new.

Let her rip.

I'm still thinking about science.

It's okay.

Just aim for the front pin.

You and Missy looked like you were
having fun today.

Yeah, we were.

Little father -daughter bonding.

It was nice.

You guys were out there for a while.

What were you talking about?

Oh, you know, just life.

Sure.

Everything okay?

Everything's fine.

Nothing to worry about.

You're really not going to tell me?

No.

Hey there, Sheldon. What can I do for
you?

I'm wondering if you have any books on
stopping bad habits.

A few. What habit are you trying to
stop?

Science. Yes.

It's not permanent. I'm just looking to
take a break.

I've heard that one before.

What did you take a break from?

Happiness.

I've tried a few different activities,
but whatever I do just leads me back to

science. Well, let's think about it.
What's the opposite of science?

Science is based in facts, and the
opposite of facts is fiction.

How about fantasy?

Magic and dragons. We have a whole
section here.

Ooh, that sounds intellectually
bankrupt. I'll give it a shot.

Good news!

I found a way to take a break from
science.

That's great!

What is it?

A fantasy book series called The Lord of
the Rings.

Well, got the Lord in it.

That's something.

That one had some zip on it.

Zip's a good thing, right?

Yes.

That looks like I know what I'm doing.

Just like a pro.

Well, like a lady pro.

Oh, yes, very much.

Is there anything else good I could say
about the Rangers?

Let's see.

Tell whoever's interested that no one's
ever going to touch Nolan Ryan's

strikeout record.

Because he strikes out all the time.

No, because he throws strikeouts all the
time.

Oh, big difference.

Dinner's ready.

Five more minutes.

She wants five more minutes with her old
dad.

What are they doing out there?

They're bonding. It's great. Chef, how's
your book?

Nice pivot.

Excellent. There's a character named
Gollum who was corrupted by the Ring of

Power. Now he runs around naked and
bites the heads off fish.

That's called sushi.

Which, by the way, I will die before I
eat. Speaking of dying, when you do, can

I have your car?

This can't be right.

What now?

In the letter that Gandalf leaves for
Frodo at the Prancing Pony, he says that

it's Midyear's Day Shire, year 1418.

However, in Appendix B, it says that
Gandalf met Radagast on June 29th, which

impossible because, hey, next time it's
my show, and I will put Zip on it.

The man who lived in the town was tall.

Which word is the relative pronoun?

Sheldon. Have you read the Lord of the
Rings?

Um, I have, but that's not what we're
really doing right now.

The relative pronoun is who. Now, did
you notice that in Fellowship, Elrond

that the foundations of Barad -Dur were
made with the One Ring?

Let's say, sure.

However, in Appendix B, The Tale of
Years, it's clear that Sauron began

Barad -Dur in Second Age 1000, 600 years
before the Ring was forged.

Georgie. Imagine living with this.

An hour a day is enough.

The timeline doesn't make sense. I mean,
it lists Samwise Gamgee's birth years

both 2963 and 2980.

Maybe he lied about his age.

Why? I don't know. Maybe he thinks his
neck makes him look older than he is.

But he's only in his 30s. That's young.

Thank you. For a hobbit. For a human,
that's mommy age.

Thank you.

Sam are riding through the Shire, the
book says the moon went westward, but

according to the calendar Tolkien
created, there should have been no moon

visible. But in the appendix, Tolkien
covered himself by saying there may be

mistranslations from the real book.

Fictional Tolkien says that, but I can't
help wondering if real Tolkien who

wrote the book made the mistake, or if
it was an intentional mistake made by

fictional Tolkien who translated these
real world events from an original

source.

Oh no.

Is that how I sound to people?

Hey! You want to throw the ball around?

No, go away.

Did something happen at school?

I don't want to talk about it.

Okay.

Well, change your mind.

You know I'm here for you.

He likes someone else.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

She doesn't even know who Nolan Ryan is.

This guy sounds like an idiot.

He's not perfect.

All right.

You want me to get your mom?

No.

You want me to beat this guy up?

No.

What can I do?

make it curve?

Well, that's a little tricky. You put
two fingers on the seam, right, and then

you flick your wrist.

Okay. Here, try.

Oh. There you go, right on the stitch
there.

Two fingers on it, and then at the end
you flick your wrist. There you go. Give

her a shot.

Hey, how about that?

Right, just like a pro, I'm telling you.

Well. We'll work on that, Jill.
Definitely.

Nice.

Having found no answers, I took it upon
myself to rectify the inconsistent

timeline in Lord of the Rings.

J .R .R. Tolkien had a brilliant mind,
but let's be honest, he was no S .L.

Cooper.

You okay out here? I will be once I
finish this.

As hard as I tried to work out a
consistent chronology I kept running

roadblocks.

What am I missing?

We're never going to figure it out.

We can.

We're smart.

We're so smart. Our brains is precious.

If our brains is precious, we're wasting
it on hobbitses. We like sciences.

We took a break from sciences.

It was making us crazy. And look at us
now.

Look at what those nasty hobbitses have
done to us.

No, it was physicses.

Physics has did this to us.

Hobbits says.

Physics says.

Hobbits says.

Ow. I warned you.

Mom.

Mom.

What's wrong?

I was Gollum and Smeagol, and I was in a
cave fighting with myself over physics

and hobbits. And then I realized that
even though physics is frustrating, it

won't turn me into a tormented creature
who bites the heads off fish.

Okay, good night.

I've been doing a great job with Missy.
This one's on you.
