1
00:00:08,312 --> 00:00:10,010
Previously onYoung Sheldon...
2
00:00:10,053 --> 00:00:12,577
Hello. I'm Sheldon Cooper,
and this is
3
00:00:12,621 --> 00:00:15,058
"Why Sheldon Cooper Should
Go to College."
4
00:00:15,102 --> 00:00:16,842
Which is why I'm proposing
that I live at home
5
00:00:16,886 --> 00:00:19,454
but enroll full-time
to continue my studies
6
00:00:19,497 --> 00:00:22,022
with Dr. Sturgis
at East Texas Tech.
7
00:00:22,065 --> 00:00:23,893
Hi, Mary.
8
00:00:23,936 --> 00:00:27,114
I know this must be
a hard decision for you,
9
00:00:27,157 --> 00:00:29,507
but if you let him come here,
10
00:00:29,551 --> 00:00:33,207
I promise we'll take
good care of him.
11
00:00:34,251 --> 00:00:37,037
Sheldon Cooper:
ready for college,
12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,690
ready to change the world.
13
00:00:38,734 --> 00:00:39,865
Cut.
14
00:00:39,909 --> 00:00:41,302
If that doesn't convince her,
15
00:00:41,345 --> 00:00:43,130
I don't know
what her problem is.
16
00:00:49,092 --> 00:00:50,876
I'm excited to finally usecollege-ruled paper
17
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,661
and not feel likeI'm living a lie.
18
00:00:52,704 --> 00:00:54,402
What's college-ruled paper?
19
00:00:54,445 --> 00:00:56,708
The lines are18% closer together.
20
00:00:56,752 --> 00:00:58,710
College sounds hard.
21
00:00:58,754 --> 00:01:00,538
You won't have to worry
about that, honey.
22
00:01:00,582 --> 00:01:02,192
Okay.
23
00:01:02,236 --> 00:01:04,542
Missy, don't forget thatyou have to pick out a present
24
00:01:04,586 --> 00:01:06,109
for that birthday next week.
25
00:01:06,153 --> 00:01:08,068
Mom, it's "Melissa" now.
26
00:01:08,111 --> 00:01:09,895
Middle school.
27
00:01:09,939 --> 00:01:11,984
Who's Melissa?Me.
28
00:01:12,028 --> 00:01:13,116
Then who's Missy?
29
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,900
"Missy" is short for "Melissa."
30
00:01:14,944 --> 00:01:17,164
Like how "Billy" is short
for "William."
31
00:01:17,207 --> 00:01:19,340
I don't understand.
32
00:01:19,383 --> 00:01:21,690
You know how your
real name is William?
33
00:01:21,733 --> 00:01:23,213
I'm Billy.
34
00:01:23,257 --> 00:01:26,173
No, we call you Billy,but your real name is William.
35
00:01:26,216 --> 00:01:28,349
But my underpants
say "Billy" in them.
36
00:01:30,046 --> 00:01:32,004
Mom, is my name William?
37
00:01:32,048 --> 00:01:33,615
Yeah.
38
00:01:33,658 --> 00:01:36,096
Then whose underpants
am I wearing?
39
00:01:59,206 --> 00:02:00,511
Thanks again.
40
00:02:00,555 --> 00:02:02,252
Robin is gonna be
thrilled with this.
41
00:02:02,296 --> 00:02:04,515
Don't thank me. Thank Mary.
42
00:02:04,559 --> 00:02:06,343
She's the one who said
I had to do it.
43
00:02:06,387 --> 00:02:08,171
Just out of curiosity,
did she also mention
44
00:02:08,215 --> 00:02:10,652
helping me build the crib
at some point?
45
00:02:10,695 --> 00:02:11,740
No.
46
00:02:11,783 --> 00:02:13,437
Well, act surprised
when she does.
47
00:02:13,481 --> 00:02:16,310
Dang it.
48
00:02:19,661 --> 00:02:21,271
What do you think you're doing?
49
00:02:21,315 --> 00:02:23,143
Trying to get the bike started.
50
00:02:23,186 --> 00:02:24,492
Why?
51
00:02:24,535 --> 00:02:26,058
So I can ride it.
52
00:02:26,102 --> 00:02:27,973
Like hell you are!
53
00:02:28,017 --> 00:02:29,888
Sorry.
54
00:02:29,932 --> 00:02:31,673
You don't use it.
55
00:02:31,716 --> 00:02:33,153
'Cause your mother won't let me.
56
00:02:33,196 --> 00:02:34,719
And if I can't, you can't.
57
00:02:34,763 --> 00:02:36,982
If I get it running,
can I at least sell it?
58
00:02:37,026 --> 00:02:38,288
No.
59
00:02:38,332 --> 00:02:40,072
But it's just sitting here.
What's the point?
60
00:02:40,116 --> 00:02:41,726
Point is I said no.
61
00:02:41,770 --> 00:02:45,730
I can't believe someone so lame
even owned a bike like this.
62
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,955
Why are kids
such a pain in the ass?
63
00:02:54,348 --> 00:02:56,524
I'm sure yours will be great.
64
00:02:59,527 --> 00:03:02,138
I feel like this cover
really says who I am now.
65
00:03:02,182 --> 00:03:04,096
That looks like
all your notebooks.
66
00:03:04,140 --> 00:03:07,926
Missy got ponies.
Melissa gets horses.
67
00:03:09,406 --> 00:03:10,581
Hello, Coopers.
68
00:03:10,625 --> 00:03:12,496
Dr. Sturgis here.
69
00:03:12,540 --> 00:03:14,194
This is a message for Mary.
70
00:03:14,237 --> 00:03:17,588
I have some news
I need to share with you
71
00:03:17,632 --> 00:03:20,156
before Sheldon starts college.
72
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,505
Please call me back.
73
00:03:23,072 --> 00:03:25,466
I wonder why he'd want
to talk to you and not me.
74
00:03:26,380 --> 00:03:27,642
Dr. Sturgis again.
75
00:03:27,685 --> 00:03:30,035
If Sheldon happened to hear
that last message
76
00:03:30,079 --> 00:03:32,690
and is wondering why I'd want
to speak to his mother first
77
00:03:32,734 --> 00:03:34,562
and not him...
78
00:03:35,911 --> 00:03:37,478
Excellent question!
79
00:03:37,521 --> 00:03:41,046
It's that kind of curiosity
that makes him
80
00:03:41,090 --> 00:03:43,048
a true man of science.
81
00:03:45,181 --> 00:03:47,575
I'm a true man of science.
82
00:03:53,276 --> 00:03:55,278
Hello.Hello, Dr. Sturgis.
83
00:03:55,322 --> 00:03:56,801
This is Mary Cooper.
84
00:03:56,845 --> 00:03:59,543
Hi. Thanks for calling me back.
85
00:03:59,587 --> 00:04:01,850
So, what's going on?
86
00:04:01,893 --> 00:04:03,068
Everything okay?
87
00:04:03,112 --> 00:04:06,333
Yes, everything is
quite good, actually.
88
00:04:06,376 --> 00:04:08,248
Well, for me, that is.
89
00:04:08,291 --> 00:04:09,901
Um...
90
00:04:09,945 --> 00:04:13,427
did you know there's
a supercollider being built
91
00:04:13,470 --> 00:04:14,906
in Waxahachie, Texas?
92
00:04:14,950 --> 00:04:16,952
No.
93
00:04:16,995 --> 00:04:19,433
Do you know
what a supercollider is?
94
00:04:20,434 --> 00:04:21,304
Not really.
95
00:04:21,348 --> 00:04:23,088
Would you like a crash course?
96
00:04:23,132 --> 00:04:24,699
Which is humorous
97
00:04:24,742 --> 00:04:29,138
because it involves particles
crashing into each other.
98
00:04:29,181 --> 00:04:31,749
I'd like you to tell me what
this has to do with Sheldon.
99
00:04:31,793 --> 00:04:35,927
Well, that part's less funny.
100
00:04:35,971 --> 00:04:37,625
I've taken a job there.
101
00:04:38,626 --> 00:04:40,192
Hold on.
102
00:04:40,236 --> 00:04:43,413
You're not gonna be around
when Sheldon starts college?
103
00:04:43,457 --> 00:04:45,807
That's a great question.
104
00:04:45,850 --> 00:04:46,982
No.
105
00:04:47,025 --> 00:04:49,724
John, I agreed to let him go
106
00:04:49,767 --> 00:04:52,770
because you were gonna be there
to look after him.
107
00:04:52,814 --> 00:04:54,598
I know.
108
00:04:54,642 --> 00:04:56,818
And I feel terrible
about it, but...
109
00:04:56,861 --> 00:04:58,776
please understand,
110
00:04:58,820 --> 00:05:02,606
this is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.
111
00:05:02,650 --> 00:05:03,781
I couldn't turn it down.
112
00:05:03,825 --> 00:05:06,131
Orientation starts next week.
113
00:05:06,175 --> 00:05:07,350
I'm aware.
114
00:05:07,394 --> 00:05:10,440
Well, I hope
that you're ready
115
00:05:10,484 --> 00:05:12,703
to hear him freak out
when you tell him.
116
00:05:12,747 --> 00:05:14,792
I was kind of hoping
he'd just be excited
117
00:05:14,836 --> 00:05:16,968
I get to work on
the supercollider.
118
00:05:17,012 --> 00:05:19,144
Right, because being happy
for other people
119
00:05:19,188 --> 00:05:20,320
is where he shines.
120
00:05:20,363 --> 00:05:21,538
A supercollider?
121
00:05:21,582 --> 00:05:23,192
Well, you can't say no to that.
122
00:05:23,235 --> 00:05:24,628
I give up.
123
00:05:24,672 --> 00:05:26,543
Ooh, can you get me
a bumper sticker?
124
00:05:26,587 --> 00:05:30,547
Did you know Dr. Sturgis
was taking a new job?
125
00:05:30,591 --> 00:05:32,027
What job?
126
00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:35,813
He went to work on some
supercollider in Waxahachie.
127
00:05:35,857 --> 00:05:37,467
What do you mean "went"?
128
00:05:37,511 --> 00:05:38,816
He's already there.
129
00:05:38,860 --> 00:05:41,863
When did you hear this?He just called.
130
00:05:41,906 --> 00:05:44,648
I was counting on him
to be there for Sheldon.
131
00:05:44,692 --> 00:05:47,521
Well, you'd think he would've
mentioned it to me.
132
00:05:47,564 --> 00:05:49,000
Sheldon says it's okay with him,
133
00:05:49,044 --> 00:05:50,654
but I would certainly
feel a lot better
134
00:05:50,698 --> 00:05:53,483
if there were adults there
that I trusted.
135
00:05:53,527 --> 00:05:55,398
Nothing on the
answering machine.
136
00:05:55,442 --> 00:05:56,921
He's just a little boy,
and he's gonna be
137
00:05:56,965 --> 00:05:58,836
on that big campus
all by himself.
138
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,664
I mean, I know
we're not dating anymore,
139
00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:03,014
but I thought
we were still friends.
140
00:06:03,058 --> 00:06:04,581
Excuse me.
141
00:06:04,625 --> 00:06:06,627
I think you're focusing on the
wrong part of the story here.
142
00:06:06,670 --> 00:06:08,977
He's little, you're worried.
Please continue.
143
00:06:09,978 --> 00:06:11,893
That sums it up.
144
00:06:11,936 --> 00:06:13,416
Okay.
145
00:06:23,208 --> 00:06:24,166
Missy.
146
00:06:26,255 --> 00:06:26,951
What?
147
00:06:26,995 --> 00:06:28,518
Help me with my clothes.
148
00:06:28,562 --> 00:06:30,433
Burn them and get new ones.
149
00:06:30,477 --> 00:06:32,392
Please, it's
freshman orientation.
150
00:06:32,435 --> 00:06:33,915
I want to make
a good impression.
151
00:06:33,958 --> 00:06:36,047
Fine.
152
00:06:36,091 --> 00:06:39,399
Which bow tie says
mature enough to be in college
153
00:06:39,442 --> 00:06:41,879
but whimsical enough
to discuss which came first,
154
00:06:41,923 --> 00:06:43,664
the Higgs field or the photon?
155
00:06:45,100 --> 00:06:47,058
They both say
weird kid who eats alone.
156
00:06:47,102 --> 00:06:48,930
Come on.
I know you're concerned about
157
00:06:48,973 --> 00:06:50,627
what you'll wear
to middle school.
158
00:06:50,671 --> 00:06:52,847
Show me again.
159
00:06:54,326 --> 00:06:56,590
The blue one. Plaid's too busy.
160
00:06:56,633 --> 00:06:58,461
Thanks.
161
00:06:58,505 --> 00:07:00,463
Or don't be the kid
in a bow tie.
162
00:07:00,507 --> 00:07:03,161
This is not the day to go crazy.
163
00:07:05,816 --> 00:07:08,732
My son, the college freshman.
164
00:07:08,776 --> 00:07:10,473
I can't believe it.
165
00:07:10,517 --> 00:07:11,648
How can you not believe it?
166
00:07:11,692 --> 00:07:13,694
You had to sign
my vaccination form.
167
00:07:13,737 --> 00:07:15,043
Right.
168
00:07:15,086 --> 00:07:16,566
So, what do you
want to do first?
169
00:07:16,610 --> 00:07:18,438
I was thinking we could
start at the bookstore,
170
00:07:18,481 --> 00:07:19,917
try and beat the lines.
171
00:07:19,961 --> 00:07:22,485
I agree about the lines,
but what do you mean "we"?
172
00:07:22,529 --> 00:07:24,879
I mean you and me.
173
00:07:24,922 --> 00:07:26,620
This is my first day.
I can't be seen
174
00:07:26,663 --> 00:07:28,578
walking around campus
with my mommy.
175
00:07:28,622 --> 00:07:31,233
Well, it's only orientation.
176
00:07:31,276 --> 00:07:33,496
Yes, and I'm quite capable
of handling everything
177
00:07:33,540 --> 00:07:35,411
that I need to get done today
on my own.
178
00:07:35,455 --> 00:07:37,108
I'm sure you are.
179
00:07:37,152 --> 00:07:40,111
I just figured,
with Dr. Sturgis not around,
180
00:07:40,155 --> 00:07:41,939
it might be nice if I could be.
181
00:07:41,983 --> 00:07:44,333
No one else's mother
is going to be.
182
00:07:44,376 --> 00:07:45,726
You don't know that.
183
00:07:45,769 --> 00:07:47,728
Well, I know mine isn't.
184
00:07:47,771 --> 00:07:50,165
You might want
to watch the attitude
185
00:07:50,208 --> 00:07:52,123
to the person who's
driving you there.
186
00:07:52,167 --> 00:07:53,560
Not all the way there.
187
00:07:53,603 --> 00:07:55,823
Drop me off a block away
so no one sees us together.
188
00:07:55,866 --> 00:07:58,782
Sorry, I am not leaving you
alone your first day.
189
00:07:58,826 --> 00:07:59,914
Yes, you are.
190
00:07:59,957 --> 00:08:02,351
For someone going into college,
191
00:08:02,394 --> 00:08:04,353
you are acting very childish.
192
00:08:04,396 --> 00:08:05,833
Maybe it just appears that way
193
00:08:05,876 --> 00:08:07,574
because you see me
with my mommy.
194
00:08:11,012 --> 00:08:13,405
Boy, I remember putting one of
these together for Georgie.
195
00:08:13,449 --> 00:08:15,712
It is great having
y'all next door.
196
00:08:15,756 --> 00:08:18,672
Did you not hear me yelling
at Georgie last night?
197
00:08:18,715 --> 00:08:20,717
It's okay. I'm sure
you'll hear our little one
198
00:08:20,761 --> 00:08:21,892
crying soon enough.
199
00:08:21,936 --> 00:08:24,416
Missy was a crier.
200
00:08:24,460 --> 00:08:26,201
Sheldon just learned
to talk and said,
201
00:08:26,244 --> 00:08:28,290
"Father, I have soiled myself."
202
00:08:28,333 --> 00:08:31,075
Well, he's a miracle
in his own way.
203
00:08:31,119 --> 00:08:33,904
You just put a positive spin
on everything, don't you?
204
00:08:33,948 --> 00:08:36,385
Kind of goes with
the pastor territory.
205
00:08:36,428 --> 00:08:37,995
Okay.
206
00:08:38,039 --> 00:08:39,344
What if I said
207
00:08:39,388 --> 00:08:41,390
Mary and I have not had
208
00:08:41,433 --> 00:08:43,871
a real vacation
since we had kids?
209
00:08:45,220 --> 00:08:47,004
I like to believe
starting a family
210
00:08:47,048 --> 00:08:49,572
will be the most rewarding
adventure of all.
211
00:08:49,616 --> 00:08:52,967
You're good.
212
00:08:53,010 --> 00:08:55,883
You could not be more wrong,
but you're good.
213
00:09:03,194 --> 00:09:05,893
Can you show me where
the used physics textbooks are?
214
00:09:05,936 --> 00:09:07,242
Follow me.
215
00:09:07,285 --> 00:09:09,505
Normally I would prefer
a fresh new textbook,
216
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:11,812
but my father is a high
school football coach.
217
00:09:11,855 --> 00:09:13,640
Which is another way
of saying we're poor.
218
00:09:13,683 --> 00:09:15,642
Here you go.
219
00:09:23,258 --> 00:09:24,651
Who owned this, a werewolf?
220
00:09:24,694 --> 00:09:25,913
Let's talk about the weather.
221
00:09:25,956 --> 00:09:28,045
It's going to be
a beautiful sunny day today
222
00:09:28,089 --> 00:09:29,873
with temps reaching
a high of 97.
223
00:09:29,917 --> 00:09:31,571
Gross.
224
00:09:31,614 --> 00:09:34,312
In other news, President Bush
will be traveling to Waxahachie
225
00:09:34,356 --> 00:09:36,706
later this month
to visit the site
226
00:09:36,750 --> 00:09:38,882
of a new supercollider.
227
00:09:38,926 --> 00:09:41,624
Scientists are hopeful this willlead to exciting discoveries
228
00:09:41,668 --> 00:09:43,670
in the world of part...
229
00:09:46,455 --> 00:09:47,717
What?
230
00:09:47,761 --> 00:09:49,545
You said you'd show me
how to hot-roll my hair.
231
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:52,156
Right.
You still want to do that?
232
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,723
You're cranky.
233
00:09:53,767 --> 00:09:56,857
So maybe I shouldn't be putting
hot rollers on your head.
234
00:09:56,900 --> 00:09:59,599
Meh, you're always cranky.
Let's do this.
235
00:10:04,734 --> 00:10:06,736
Not so bad.
236
00:10:06,780 --> 00:10:09,304
I would have highlighted that.
237
00:10:10,653 --> 00:10:12,873
And someone drew genitals.
238
00:10:18,443 --> 00:10:20,620
Mrs. Cooper?
239
00:10:20,663 --> 00:10:22,926
Hi.
240
00:10:22,970 --> 00:10:24,232
Sam.
241
00:10:24,275 --> 00:10:26,321
Yes, of course.
242
00:10:26,364 --> 00:10:29,411
From, um,
Sheldon's physics class.
243
00:10:29,454 --> 00:10:30,630
How are you?
244
00:10:30,673 --> 00:10:32,283
I'm-I'm good. Yeah.
245
00:10:32,327 --> 00:10:33,894
What brings you here?
246
00:10:33,937 --> 00:10:36,070
Sheldon's freshman orientation.
247
00:10:36,113 --> 00:10:38,072
Sure.
248
00:10:38,115 --> 00:10:39,639
You didn't want to go with him?
249
00:10:39,682 --> 00:10:42,206
I did, but,
250
00:10:42,250 --> 00:10:44,687
he made it very clear
that he did not want me
251
00:10:44,731 --> 00:10:46,254
anywhere near him today.
252
00:10:46,297 --> 00:10:49,474
Well, I don't know Sheldon well,
but he can be a little...
253
00:10:49,518 --> 00:10:51,868
Rude, obnoxious, condescending?
254
00:10:51,912 --> 00:10:54,088
Hey, I do know him.
255
00:10:55,176 --> 00:10:56,786
So are you just gonna sit here?
256
00:10:56,830 --> 00:10:59,963
Well, just until it's time
to drive him home.
257
00:11:00,007 --> 00:11:02,139
Well, I can show you
around campus.
258
00:11:02,183 --> 00:11:04,228
No, no, that's okay.Yeah, no.
259
00:11:04,272 --> 00:11:06,491
Come on.
I'll buy you a school shirt.
260
00:11:06,535 --> 00:11:09,233
: He would be
mortified to see me
261
00:11:09,277 --> 00:11:10,670
wearing one of those.
262
00:11:10,713 --> 00:11:13,150
That's why I'm offering.
Let's go.
263
00:11:13,194 --> 00:11:14,717
Well, yeah.
264
00:11:18,808 --> 00:11:21,593
Wow, you're really getting
this together fast.
265
00:11:21,637 --> 00:11:23,508
I feel like I'm nothelping at all.Come on now.
266
00:11:23,552 --> 00:11:26,250
You cut those oranges
into nice little wedges.
267
00:11:26,294 --> 00:11:28,035
I do it for the kids
at Sunday school.
268
00:11:28,078 --> 00:11:29,645
They go to town on 'em.
269
00:11:32,604 --> 00:11:35,390
Did you feel ready
before Georgie was born?
270
00:11:35,433 --> 00:11:36,957
Absolutely.
271
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,567
Boy, was I wrong.
272
00:11:39,481 --> 00:11:40,743
Why? Getting nervous?
273
00:11:40,787 --> 00:11:43,093
Well, if I can't get
a crib built on my own,
274
00:11:43,137 --> 00:11:45,182
how am I gonna be
responsible for a human life?
275
00:11:45,226 --> 00:11:46,706
You'll figure it out.
276
00:11:46,749 --> 00:11:48,882
And no sense in worrying
about it 'cause you never know
277
00:11:48,925 --> 00:11:50,710
what kind of curveballs
will come your way.
278
00:11:50,753 --> 00:11:52,755
I guess that's true.
279
00:11:52,799 --> 00:11:54,539
The doctors could tell us
we were having twins,
280
00:11:54,583 --> 00:11:56,759
but they couldn't warn us
we were having a Sheldon.
281
00:11:56,803 --> 00:11:58,935
You don't think I'm gonna...?No.
282
00:11:58,979 --> 00:12:00,371
They broke the mold.
283
00:12:00,415 --> 00:12:01,938
But...
284
00:12:01,982 --> 00:12:03,853
you could go the other way
and have a Georgie,
285
00:12:03,897 --> 00:12:07,248
so... some terror is called for.
286
00:12:10,555 --> 00:12:12,557
If you highlight everything,
287
00:12:12,601 --> 00:12:14,385
you highlight nothing.
288
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:17,649
Young man,
don't move these books.
289
00:12:17,693 --> 00:12:18,912
I have a system.
290
00:12:18,955 --> 00:12:20,740
How's it look?
291
00:12:20,783 --> 00:12:21,871
Cute.
292
00:12:22,829 --> 00:12:23,960
Why are you here?
293
00:12:24,004 --> 00:12:26,093
I ran into Sam.
294
00:12:26,136 --> 00:12:27,747
Yes, you're a person I know.
295
00:12:27,790 --> 00:12:30,532
Hey, aren't you supposed
to be getting your I.D. photo?
296
00:12:30,575 --> 00:12:33,187
I got a little waylaid.Can I help?
297
00:12:33,230 --> 00:12:35,580
No, everything is
perfectly under control.
298
00:12:35,624 --> 00:12:38,148
And take off that sweatshirt.
You don't go to school here!
299
00:12:38,192 --> 00:12:39,584
See?
300
00:12:39,628 --> 00:12:40,934
Worth every penny.
301
00:12:42,152 --> 00:12:44,894
Stay calm. You can make it.
302
00:12:44,938 --> 00:12:46,156
Aah!
303
00:12:48,463 --> 00:12:51,814
Honestly, who drinks
a Slurpee at 11:00 a.m.?
304
00:12:52,946 --> 00:12:54,643
Will this make me look older?
305
00:12:54,686 --> 00:12:55,644
Definitely.
306
00:12:55,687 --> 00:12:57,385
But not like you older, right?
307
00:12:58,386 --> 00:12:59,517
Right.
308
00:12:59,561 --> 00:13:02,085
You still dating
that Marcus boy?
309
00:13:02,129 --> 00:13:03,434
Sort of.
310
00:13:03,478 --> 00:13:06,046
He went away with his family
for the summer.
311
00:13:07,221 --> 00:13:09,310
Just out of curiosity,
312
00:13:09,353 --> 00:13:11,878
before he left,
did he let you know?
313
00:13:12,922 --> 00:13:14,968
Interesting.
314
00:13:15,011 --> 00:13:17,797
And how long before he left
did he tell you?
315
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,102
I don't know, a week.
316
00:13:19,146 --> 00:13:21,104
Must be nice.
317
00:13:21,148 --> 00:13:23,063
You hear from him at all?
318
00:13:23,106 --> 00:13:25,239
Yeah, he sent me
the cutest postcard.
319
00:13:25,282 --> 00:13:27,589
It was a turtle
surfing on a dolphin.
320
00:13:27,632 --> 00:13:29,896
Adorable.
321
00:13:29,939 --> 00:13:31,854
Pulling kind of hard.
322
00:13:33,987 --> 00:13:35,466
I made it! I'm here!
323
00:13:35,510 --> 00:13:37,642
Fill this out and sign the--
324
00:13:37,686 --> 00:13:39,862
Um, there's a bee on you.
325
00:13:40,907 --> 00:13:41,995
What?
326
00:13:43,474 --> 00:13:44,824
Hey, Sam.
327
00:13:44,867 --> 00:13:46,651
Can I help y'all find anything?
328
00:13:46,695 --> 00:13:48,958
We're good. Just showing
my friend around campus.
329
00:13:49,002 --> 00:13:50,177
You a new student?
330
00:13:50,220 --> 00:13:53,267
Actually...Jason, this is Mary.
331
00:13:53,310 --> 00:13:55,138
Well, hello, Mary.
332
00:13:55,182 --> 00:13:56,966
Allow me to welcome you
to our school.
333
00:13:57,010 --> 00:13:59,273
Thank you.You know, my dorm
334
00:13:59,316 --> 00:14:00,927
is doing a back-to-school
barbecue this afternoon.
335
00:14:00,970 --> 00:14:02,319
Y'all should swing by.
336
00:14:02,363 --> 00:14:03,886
Sounds fun.
337
00:14:03,930 --> 00:14:05,018
Cool.
338
00:14:05,061 --> 00:14:07,194
Braden Hall,
in the courtyard, 1:00.
339
00:14:07,237 --> 00:14:08,369
See you there.
340
00:14:09,370 --> 00:14:10,719
Sweet, free food.
341
00:14:10,762 --> 00:14:13,896
Who cares?
He thought I was a student.
342
00:14:17,552 --> 00:14:19,641
Okay. Smile.
343
00:14:19,684 --> 00:14:21,121
Just take the picture.
344
00:14:29,564 --> 00:14:31,958
I had suffered some setbacks.
345
00:14:32,001 --> 00:14:34,569
But just as Edison
had forged ahead
346
00:14:34,612 --> 00:14:37,050
on electric lighting
without the help of Tesla,
347
00:14:37,093 --> 00:14:39,704
I was going to make it
through orientation
348
00:14:39,748 --> 00:14:41,315
without the help of my mommy,
349
00:14:41,358 --> 00:14:44,361
even if she did make
boo-boos stop hurting.
350
00:14:44,405 --> 00:14:47,364
While I had found inspiration
courtesy of Thomas Edison,
351
00:14:47,408 --> 00:14:51,803
it was soon replaced with anger at Whitcomb L. Judson,
352
00:14:51,847 --> 00:14:53,240
inventor of the zipper.
353
00:14:53,283 --> 00:14:56,199
Come on.
354
00:14:57,244 --> 00:14:59,202
What do you think?
355
00:14:59,246 --> 00:15:01,726
I think you're gonna be
a little heartbreaker.
356
00:15:01,770 --> 00:15:03,076
I don't want
to break anyone's heart.
357
00:15:03,119 --> 00:15:04,686
I just want to look hot.
358
00:15:04,729 --> 00:15:06,296
Well, that you do.
359
00:15:06,340 --> 00:15:08,037
Thank you.
360
00:15:08,081 --> 00:15:11,084
And there's nothing wrong
with breaking some hearts.
361
00:15:11,127 --> 00:15:14,696
If you don't do it to them,
they're gonna do it to you.
362
00:15:14,739 --> 00:15:16,741
Why would they do that?Because sometimes
363
00:15:16,785 --> 00:15:19,483
men do things without thinking
how it's gonna make you feel.
364
00:15:19,527 --> 00:15:21,877
Marcus wouldn't do that.
We're friends.
365
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:23,835
That don't mean nothing.
366
00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:26,099
You think somebody's
your friend,
367
00:15:26,142 --> 00:15:29,537
then they just up and leave
without a word.
368
00:15:29,580 --> 00:15:30,930
But Marcus told me.
369
00:15:32,105 --> 00:15:33,889
But Marcus told me.
370
00:15:35,412 --> 00:15:37,110
Like Batman's utility belt,
371
00:15:37,153 --> 00:15:40,591
my briefcase was equipped
for any emergency.
372
00:15:42,985 --> 00:15:44,378
I don't know if the Bat-pants
had a zipper,
373
00:15:44,421 --> 00:15:46,902
but if they did, I could fix it.
374
00:15:53,822 --> 00:15:55,084
Two months!
375
00:15:55,128 --> 00:15:57,086
Two months
till this baby comes!
376
00:15:57,130 --> 00:15:59,523
There's so much I thought
I was gonna do in my life.
377
00:15:59,567 --> 00:16:01,003
I'm sure you've
done plenty.
378
00:16:01,047 --> 00:16:02,178
Nothing cool.
379
00:16:02,222 --> 00:16:03,527
Look at you.
380
00:16:03,571 --> 00:16:05,529
You played football
and rode a motorcycle.
381
00:16:05,573 --> 00:16:07,879
Well, you save people's souls.
382
00:16:07,923 --> 00:16:09,272
That's neat, right?
383
00:16:09,316 --> 00:16:10,926
It's neat as neat can be,
but you know
384
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,188
that's not
what I'm talking about.
385
00:16:14,016 --> 00:16:17,019
Look, being a dad doesn't mean
your life is over.
386
00:16:17,063 --> 00:16:18,978
It just means it's different.
387
00:16:19,021 --> 00:16:21,676
Instead of playing football,
I get to coach it now.
388
00:16:21,719 --> 00:16:23,808
I mean, high school football.
389
00:16:23,852 --> 00:16:26,507
Not college like I'd hoped.
390
00:16:26,550 --> 00:16:30,685
I-Instead of a motorcycle,
I drive a truck.
391
00:16:30,728 --> 00:16:33,818
To work every single day.
392
00:16:33,862 --> 00:16:35,255
To pay the bills.
393
00:16:37,083 --> 00:16:39,650
Endless bills.
394
00:16:39,694 --> 00:16:41,696
What happened to my life?
395
00:16:43,393 --> 00:16:45,439
Orange wedge?
396
00:16:46,962 --> 00:16:50,096
With only seven minutes until my freshman orientation seminar,
397
00:16:50,139 --> 00:16:52,011
I was in a sticky spot.
398
00:16:52,054 --> 00:16:56,015
Thankfully, I was armed with an even stickier solution.
399
00:17:03,718 --> 00:17:05,328
You made it!
400
00:17:05,372 --> 00:17:06,503
Hey.
Hi.
401
00:17:06,547 --> 00:17:07,504
Hey, guys,
402
00:17:07,548 --> 00:17:08,984
this is Sam and Mary.
403
00:17:10,725 --> 00:17:13,945
Well, aren't y'all friendly.
404
00:17:13,989 --> 00:17:16,426
We are so excited
to have you here today.
405
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:19,081
This is the most competitive
year we've had for admissions.
406
00:17:19,125 --> 00:17:22,084
So you should feel really good
about your accomplishments.
407
00:17:22,128 --> 00:17:24,521
You belong to an elite group
of scholars...
408
00:17:31,137 --> 00:17:33,095
I may not look it,
but I'm the future of physics,
409
00:17:33,139 --> 00:17:35,054
so just move on.
410
00:17:36,577 --> 00:17:38,753
You have kids?
411
00:17:38,796 --> 00:17:39,797
Three.
412
00:17:39,841 --> 00:17:41,538
You look amazing!
413
00:17:41,582 --> 00:17:43,888
Two of 'em are twins.
414
00:17:43,932 --> 00:17:47,109
I don't want to brag,
but natural birth.
415
00:17:47,153 --> 00:17:48,589
Whoa.
416
00:17:48,632 --> 00:17:51,070
I love college.
417
00:18:11,307 --> 00:18:12,830
John.
418
00:18:21,448 --> 00:18:23,406
Dear Connie, you may have heard
419
00:18:23,450 --> 00:18:27,802
I've taken a job at the new
supercollider in Waxahachie.
420
00:18:27,845 --> 00:18:31,414
I wanted to tell you
in person, but,
421
00:18:31,458 --> 00:18:33,721
I was afraid you'd be upset.
422
00:18:33,764 --> 00:18:36,289
And, honestly...
423
00:18:36,332 --> 00:18:39,727
I was even more afraid
you wouldn't be.
424
00:18:39,770 --> 00:18:41,685
John.
425
00:18:41,729 --> 00:18:45,428
This also gives me an excuse
to use my astronaut pen.
426
00:18:45,472 --> 00:18:49,128
I'm not upside-down,
but if I was,
427
00:18:49,171 --> 00:18:51,782
it would still write.
428
00:18:55,569 --> 00:18:57,179
How you doing back there?
429
00:18:57,223 --> 00:18:59,834
I've never
felt so alive!
430
00:18:59,877 --> 00:19:02,489
Praise the Lord!
431
00:19:05,492 --> 00:19:09,409
Let's go to Mexico!
432
00:19:09,452 --> 00:19:13,456
