Previously on Young Sheldon...

Veronica.

I-I'm here for your mom's Bible study.

I'm glad you could join us.

What are you doing?

Come here for Bible study.

If you want to be a good Christian,

maybe you should stop
lying through your teeth.

Hey, Mom, just a heads-up:
I'm gettin' baptized tomorrow.

We did it!

I'm so happy!

I love you.

Oh!

There are certain phrases

that are used by dads around the world.

♪ Well, it's all right... ♪

Close the fridge.

You're wastin' money.

I'm having trouble deciding
between pudding and Jell-O.

Well, decide what you
want, and then open it.

But I need the visual input.

Does the pudding have a skin?

Plus, it's good fun jiggling the Jell-O.

Do you have any idea
what our electric bill is?

Yes. I do our taxes.

And it's higher than it should be.

And why do you think that is?

Well, I don't want to point any fingers,

but Missy sleeps with a night-light.

Make a choice and close the door.

Okay. There's only one
logical way to settle this.

Eenie-meenie...

Close the door!

Hey.

What do you want?

I just wanted to apologize again.

My behavior was crazy.

I blame hormones.

Really? 'Cause I blame you.

Is there any way you can forgive me?

Please.

Fine. I forgive you.

You're not just saying it
'cause you're trying to be

a good Christian and you're
afraid of going to Hell?

Do you want me to forgive you or not?

Very much.

Then stop talking and let's move on.

So... so we're friends again?

Sure.

Just as friends, would
you wanna hang out

on Saturday night?

In a no-kissing and no-punching-in-
the-face kind of way?

I can't. My boyfriend's
taking me to dinner.

Boyfriend, boyfriend, boyfriend...

You know, I got to run.

I'm glad we're friends again.

- Your brother looks upset.
- Really?

I would have guessed hungry.

See you later.

Mr. Givens, a moment of your time?

I'm curious about more
cost-effective methods

of generating electricity.

And?

And I came to you. Go.

Well, there's fossil
fuels, like oil and coal.

- Too dirty.
- Oh. Hydro?

- Too wet.
- Solar?

With this fair skin? Next.

Wind?

You know what the problem with wind is.

It's too reliant on wind.

I think I'm looking

for something a little more indoors.

How about nuclear power?

It's clean and efficient and very safe,

until something goes horribly wrong.

That could work.

Oh. Goody.

Are we done?

Almost. I have one last
question about nuclear reactors.

What?

How do I build one? Go.

Spoiler alert: he didn't know.

Hello?

Hello, my little vicuña.

Well, hello to you, too.

And more importantly, what is a vicuña?

Only what I feel is the
cutest camelid on the planet.

Well, I suppose I could
ask you what a camelid is,

but you're just gonna say
more words that I don't know.

What's up?

There's an upcoming
event at the university,

and I'd like you to be my plus-one.

Oh. Well, I'd love to go.

- Wonderful! It's a date. Bye.
- Wait, wait.

Hang on there, partner. I
need a little more information.

When is this event?

This Friday night.

Oh. What time?

I'm not sure.

Well, will there be food?

I have no idea.

What's the dress code?

Not a clue.

Well, what do you know?

You're my plus-one.

Well, you go do a little more
research and get back to me.

You got it!

Bye.

- Wait.
- What?

Love you!

Love you, too.

Hello. Is this the studio that makes
the Professor Proton show?

Excellent.

May I speak to him, please?

Well, then I'd like
to leave him a message.

My name is Sheldon Cooper,
and I'm trying to build

a nuclear reactor, and
I could use his help.

My number is 409-356-6049.

Thank you. I'm gonna hang up now,

because this is long-distance,

and my father doesn't make much money.

Good-bye.

Georgie, question:

In the hallway earlier today,

were you upset or hungry?

Shut up.

That's hungry.

Connie, I believe I have answers

to all your questions.

Lay it on me.

Time: the event begins at 6:00 p.m.

The dress code is: business attire.

Dinner will be served,
but it's been suggested

that we eat first, because
the food is dreadful.

Good to know.

And last but not least,

a camelid is any member
of the camelidae family,

such as llamas, alpacas or vicuñas.

You didn't ask that one,

but, uh, it seemed like
something you should know.

John...

is everybody at this party
gonna be a scientist like you?

Not everybody. You'll be there.

That's kind of what I'm gettin' at.

Is there a problem?

Well...

yeah.

I didn't go to college.

I was a total screwup in high school.

I might not fit in at all.

Don't be silly.
Everyone's gonna love you!

And I'm excited to show you off.

The general consensus among
the faculty is you don't exist.

I don't know how I feel about that.

Oh, don't worry... it says more
about me than it does about you.

I'll get it.

It's like dating the
Encyclopedia Britannica.

Oh, hello, Sheldon.

Good evening. Do you have any idea

where I could obtain
radioactive material?

That's an interesting question.
What do you need it for?

I'm trying to build a
small nuclear reactor

to provide electricity for my house.

And possibly the whole neighborhood,

if they're nice to me.

- Fun.
- The problem is, I don't know

where to get the necessary
radioactive material.

Oh. Do you happen to have
any unexploded atomic bombs?

Not a one.

Shoot.

What about an X-ray machine?

Nope.

That makes sense. You're just a kid.

Oh! I know!

Smoke detectors contain trace amounts

of americium-241.

Interesting.

But I'd need a lot of them,

and they're expensive.

True.

Hey, I bet if you call a few companies

and say it's for a school project,

you could get them for free.

That's a great idea. Thanks.

You're very welcome.

What a cute kid.

Who was that at the door?

- Sheldon.
- What did he want?

Oh, nothing. He just
had a science query.

Ooh, biscuits!

Where's Georgie?

I don't know. I called
him ten minutes ago.

He's probably curled up in a ball,

crying about Veronica.

Why do you say that?

It's just what I'm hearing.

From who?

I'm kinda plugged into this town.

I'll go check on him.

Where exactly you getting all this info?

There's a lot of kid sisters out there.

We talk.

Honey?

Can I come in?

No.

Aw, baby,

everything all right?

I don't want to talk about it.

You might feel better if you do.

Is it about a girl?

How do you know?

Sometimes a mother
can sense these things.

Veronica has a boyfriend.

You mean Dustin?

You know him?

Well, yeah, she met
him through the church.

Lovely young man.

You like him?

Oh. Well, um...

the Lord teaches us to like everybody.

I just can't stop thinking
about her with another guy,

and it's making me crazy.

Aw. Why don't you come eat something?

You'll feel better.

I can't.

I feel like I got
punched in the stomach.

Trust me,

this'll pass.

You will meet other girls.

They won't be Veronica.

Is he taller than me?

It doesn't matter.

It's what's inside a person that counts.

How much taller?

A lot.

Mrs. Sparks' credit card
got declined at Payless.

No kidding.

She went nuts.

But you didn't hear it from me.

Mm.

Poor baby is just crushed.

Oh, man.

I've been through that. Brutal.

When did I break your heart?

Oh, it wasn't you.

Then who was it?

Oh, doesn't matter.

It was a long time ago.

But who?

Dad, I don't want to
get ahead of myself,

but I think I solved
our electricity problem.

Not now, Sheldon.

I wouldn't mind hearing it.

Who?

If you want, I'll ask around.

For many children,

their happiest memory
is the day they learned

to ride a bike.

For others, it's when they
got their first puppy.

For me, it was the day

I received a box of 57 defective

smoke detectors loaded
with americium-241.

Yes!

My dearest Veronica... No.

My beloved Veronica...

Better. It's got "love" in it.

Every minute I'm away
from you is an eternity.

But it feels longer than that.

I can't eat, I can't sleep,

it's like there's a hole in my heart

that only your love can fill.

So true.

And yes, I know about Dustin,

but he can't love you the way I do.

Because my love is the kind of love

that is true love.

The kind that lovers feel

when they're in love.

Beautiful.

So in conclusion, I hope,

no, I pray,

I hope and pray

that you'll give me the chance

to be the boyfriend you deserve.

And when the time is right,

I'm able to shower you
with diamonds, houses,

boats, and cars,

the husband of your dreams.

Loving you with my heart, my soul,

and my lips,

Georgie Cooper.

Just tell me her name.

It's not important.
It was a long time ago.

Then how come I don't know about it?

Because I married you,
and no one else matters.

If that's so,

why'd this mystery
woman break your heart?

Come on, Mare.

We were young.

We were kids.

Leave it alone.

Just tell me her name,
and I'll drop it forever.

You swear?

You know I don't swear.

You promise?

Absolutely.

- Kathryn Dempsey.
- Kathryn Dempsey?!

You watched me make cupcakes
for her daughter's birthday,

and you never told me you
were in love with her?!

I was 15 years old,

and she didn't love me back.

If she did,

would you have married
her instead of me?

But she didn't!

Okay!

Now I have my answer.

Kathryn Dempsey?!

I was 15!

Hey, Sheldon.

Hello, Billy.

What you doing?

Building a nuclear reactor.

Cool. I'm having Lucky
Charms for dinner.

What are you gonna do
with it when you're done?

Stand in front of the
refrigerator as long as I want.

Cool.

Why are you eating cereal for dinner?

I was hungry,

and my parents are in
their bedroom kissing.

Hey, pal.

What's this, a love note?

- Give that back!
- Oh, I don't think so.

"To my beloved Veronica,

"Every minute I'm away
from you is an eternity.

But it feels longer than that.

I can't eat, I can't sleep,

it feels like there's a hole
in my heart that only you

can fill..."

Champagne?

Oh, I'm fine, thank you.

These are for me.

Are-are you all right?

No, I'm very nervous.

That's interesting.

Normally, I'm the one
who's unsure of himself

in a social situation,

but tonight, it's you.

Yeah. Frickin' fascinating.

Dr. Sturgis, good to see you.

Dr. Linkletter.

Please meet my girlfriend,

Connie Tucker.

Nice to meet you, Dr. Tucker.

I'm not a doctor.

But I would like to point out,

she's quite real.

I can see that.

And our relationship

is more

- than just friends.
- That's enough.

In fact,

it's flat-out erotic.

Change the subject, John.

You got it, girlfriend.

Dr. Linkletter

is working on an intriguing theory

of quantum gravity.

- Is that so?
- He can explain it

much better than I can.

Are you familiar at all

with string theory?

Remind me.

Well, basically, it's a
string theoretic interpretation

of the graviton.

Every force is an exchange of particles.

Gravity is the exchange of gravitons.

Meemaw, are you even listening?

What?

The graviton is a massless string.

The graviton is a massless string.

Wow!

Well, yes, it is.

When did you learn that?

I get around.

In fact, I would go so far as to say

that every force is an
exchange of particles,

and gravity is an exchange of gravitons.

Correct!

Yes!

John, where have you been hiding her?

I haven't.

I've talked about her quite a bit,

but you all said she was a
figment of my imagination.

She's dynamite.

Hello. I'd like to
speak to Arthur Jeffries.

He plays Professor Proton.

But you probably know that,

since you answer the
phone at the station

that makes the show, you lucky duck.

Then I'd like to leave
him another message.

Please tell him Sheldon
Cooper called again

and that I've successfully obtained

the radioactive material
that I'm looking for.

Yes, americium-241.

I have lots of it.

I live at 5501 Grant Avenue,

Medford, Texas.

If you're sending me
an autographed picture,

I already have one.

Ooh, how about one of his bow ties?

And then Bryan Larkin read the letter

- out loud in the hall.
- No.

Georgie used the word
"love," like, 30 times.

It was pathetic.

That hurts to hear.

Really? I think it's hilarious.

Also, my math teacher's pregnant.

Well, that's nice.

It might not be her husband's.

Whose do you think it is?

Hey.

Hey.

Going somewhere?

Alaska.

Gonna work on the pipeline.

Alaska, huh?

That-That's pretty far.

Not far enough, but it'll have to do.

Look, Georgie,

I know it feels bad right now, but...

I promise it'll get better.

How's it gonna get better?

Veronica thinks I'm a jerk,

and everyone in the school's
calling me Lovey Cooper.

Ooh, that is not a good name.

It doesn't matter, 'cause I'm
never going back to that school.

Listen to me.

Hey.

You're a good-looking kid,

and you got a big heart.

Once we get you on a
daily shower schedule,

the girls are gonna be lining up.

I don't want girls.

I want Veronica.

Yeah, maybe you'll get
her and maybe you won't.

But someday, you'll find the woman

who was really meant for you.

You mean like Kathryn Dempsey?

Alaska's beautiful.

How 'bout I go with you?

Who's Kathryn Dempsey?

I was 15 years...

I was 15 years old!

Connie, tell me,

did you grow up in Texas?

Took my first bath in a ten-gallon hat.

That's wonderful.

My goodness, you're as
funny as you are beautiful.

That's a nice thing to say

to your friend's girlfriend.

Actually, I don't think

it is so nice.

If I didn't know any better,

I'd say you were sweet-talking
my date right in front of me.

You're a pretty smart man, John.

Trust your gut.

Oh, look!

Shrimp cocktail. Let's get some.

- Now, hang on.
- Hey. Take your hand off her,

or there are gonna be
some severe consequences.

Whoa, John, calm down.

What do you see in this guy?

All right, that's it!

Oh, boy, you shouldn't have done that.

Oh!

That's enough! Both of you,

just cool your jets.

This isn't over, Dr. Linkletter!

Anytime, anyplace, Dr. Sturgis.

And your graviton research

is mediocre at best!

Keep moving.

Are you angry with me?

More turned on.

Ooh. Great. Let's go.

Good morning, Mary.

Hmm.

What's that about?

I'm punishing him.

- What for?
- Nothing, really.

But once I got started, I couldn't stop.

I'll get it!

The hell?

Sheldon Cooper live here?

Mare!

Am I in trouble?
