What did everyone think of last night’s episode?
I thought everyone but Leonard and Amy were terrible. Sheldon, you’ve got 4 grand in your desk? I’m sure Alex will find that info useful. Penny was just a pill at the restaurant, poor Leonard. Howard and Bernadette are more like fighting siblings than newlyweds. And Leonard, you schmuck, you gave away the opportunity to propose? Then Raj shows a warm side and quickly turns into a prick when he gets a girl? What a downer of an episode for Valentines.
For a couple of minutes I was puzzled by the disappearance of Raj’s selective mutism but then realized he’d been drinking at the party.
So who WAS Sheldon’s emergency contact before? Leonard?
And, frankly, if I were Alex, Sheldon would have met a cyanide-laced needle in his desk drawer long ago…
I would imagine that Sheldon’s emergency contact would have been Leonard.
His mother lives too far away…
Another in a string of bad episodes. Why is almost everybody becoming incredibly obnoxious lately? Penny just shit all over Leonard’s try for a romantic dinner, Bernadette was pretty brutal on Howard, Sheldon pretty much abuses Alex–despite having recently been read the riot act in HR, and Raj apparently has a douchebag switch he can flip at any time.
Speaking of Raj…the girl he left with…is she the same actress as the skinny goth chick he met at the bar with Howard?
Alex is scrumptious. If she threw herself at me, I would give SERIOUS thought to dumping Penny. 
True, but as we saw the university’s HR department is pretty much a joke. And depending on exactly how her job description was worded having her run personal errands isn’t all that egregious.
No, I don’t think so. In fact, I’m 99.9% sure of it. She was one of the daughters in a sitcom a few years back in which the same character was played by three or four different actresses at different times. For some reason they kept quitting the show or something. Can’t even remember the name of the show now, but the shtick was that she lived with her hippie boyfriend in an RV on her parents’ property.
She looked ‘different’ last night. I can’t figure out what it was, but she just looked different. And I agree. I would toss Penny like an acetone-soaked rag if Alex hit on me. Penny’s hot, no question about that, but she has the brain of a mosquito.
'til Death her scenes with Brad Garrett were comic timing gold standard. None of the other daughters has begun to fill her shoes.
Seriously, who would have thought that Leonard and Penny could finally have a discussion about engagement, and I would be sitting there bored by the whole thing?
I did think that Sheldon did an amazing job in the “I’ve been practicing this facial expression” moment. And the writers hit it beautifully with the Emergency Contact idea. It’s exactly the type of thing that would most please Amy, who longs to belong to someone. And just the sort of thoughtful inching down of walls that Sheldon’s neuroses could corrupt into an annoying burden before the week was out. Bravo!
I can’t imagine “Romance Ninja” Leonard missing the opportunity to save Howard by telling Bernadette about the lost micro-gift.
She’s probably close to reaching her limit as to how much of Sheldon she can take. She was obviously pretty pissed off, not just at the way he treats her but at the way he treats Amy too.
Also, knowing he leaves that much money just lying around would be a HUGE temptation for anybody. I can easily see myself looting his desk when he’s away somewhere.
(I wouldn’t have even thought of that a couple of years ago, but it’s becoming easier as time goes by.)
Raj tends to turn into an ass when he’s had too much, which tends to be somewhere between his first and second drink.
Could be their way of saying “The honeymoon’s over.” 
Raj has been getting creepier and creepier ever since he started hanging out with Stuart, and Stuart senses it. :rolleyes:
Yeah, “smart and hot” beats “just hot” – I like Penny, but I understand what you’re saying!
Penny is a fucking bitch. I see her so called lesson in humility she learn a couple of episodes ago has worn off.
Goth girl was played by Sarah Buehler. Raj’s new girl was played by Kate Micucci.
Who is half of Garfunkel and Oates
She’s also had roles in* Scrubs *and Raising Hope, both shows with strong casts, and pretty much stole every scene she was in.
I think I saw the world’s greatest extra at Raj’s comic book store party. Apparently Bar Rafaeli had another date that night.
Good one.
I saw the actor too and thought it was the same guy. Thanks for the confirmation.
Yes, after I saw the episode, I knew most of this website was not going to like it.
