Every episode recap, I take down a list of my favorite
quotes. Among this episode’s highlights are:
“You had a
good run, Fake Wolowitz!”
“Nothing
with Quarks.”
“Casper,
the alcoholic ghost?”
“No good,
Sheldon doesn’t float.”
And my personal favorite,
“You’re
either gonna stick your face in that pie, or I’m gonna stick that pie in your
face?”
Which reminds me: who else likes to see Leonard a little bit…angry?
The Big Bang theory didn’t disappoint and certainly didn’t
leave us hanging with six miles to go. It started off with the rattle and crash
of a pod coming into orbit—literally!
Between making sad faces over Howard dancing around from
place to place upon his less-than-warm welcome home (more on that later), I can
say about half his misfortune depended on his friends’ rudeness. Half depended
on Bernadette’s sudden illness. We all
know what it feels like to be struck with a sudden cold—or worse—on the eve of
a huge event. We needed something relatable strung into the show; not everyone
can empathize with a “boy-sized hero” returning from orbit!
Raj offended less than the other five, though he did the
most to pique my curiosity: what’s the deal between him and Fake Wolowitz? We
all know he and Stuart Sussman hit it off since the premiere episode, but how
far does their new friendship take them? Something to sink your teeth into for next
week.
That, along with the the “boys vs. girls” competition!
Besides how shocked I was when they turned away our home-again rocket man, I
laughed the hardest during Penny and Sheldon’s wrestling performance. I would elaborate…but
I think I like leaving the scene vague, for anyone that HASN’T seen the episode
yet, a little bit better.
All I know is, Howard’s friends better have a huge apology
waiting, and soon. Can’t wait for next Thursday! Be thinking about your Big
Bang Theory Christmas gifts—we start when Hallmark starts!
