Quotes6

  • Howard Wolowitz: We're going to need a strong 4th for our team.
  • Raj Koothrappali: You know who's apparently very smart, is the girl who played TV's "Blossom." She got her Ph.D in neuroscience or something.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Raj, we're not getting TV's "Blossom" to join our Physics Bowl team.
  • Raj Koothrappali: How about the girl from the "Wonder Years?"
  • Raj Koothrappali: I say we wait until he looks at us, then laugh like "Yes, you are a smart and strong competitor, but we are also smart and strong and we have a reasonable chance of defeating you."
  • Leonard: How exactly would that laugh go?
  • Raj Koothrappali: [in high-pitched voice] He-he-he-he-he-he!
  • Howard Wolowitz: That sounds more like "We are a tall, thin woman who wants to make a coat out of your Dalmatians."
  • Leonard: Guys, let's remember that Sheldon is still our friend, and my roommate.
  • Howard Wolowitz: So?
  • Leonard: So, nothing. Let's destroy him.
  • [regarding the equation in the final question]
  • Raj Koothrappali: Holy crap!
  • Leonard: What the hell is that?
  • Howard Wolowitz: It looks like something they found on the ship at Roswell.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Oooh... more details about the new Star Trek film. There's going to be a scene depicting Spock's birth.
  • Raj Koothrappali: I'd be more interested in a scene depicting Spock's conception.
  • Sheldon: Oh, please. For Vulcans, mating - or if you will, pon farr... is an extremely private matter.
  • Leonard: Still, I'd like to know the details. His mother was human, his father was Vulcan. They couldn't just 'conceive'.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Maybe they had to go to a clinic. Can you imagine Spock's dad in a little room with a copy of "Pointy Ears and Shapely Rears"?
  • Raj Koothrappali: How come on Star Trek everybody's private parts are the same? No alien lady ever told Captain Kirk, "Hey, get your thing out of my nose".
  • Sheldon: [discussing their team name for the Physics Bowl] Teams are traditionally named after fierce creatures, thus intimidating one's opponent.
  • Raj Koothrappali: Then we could be the "Bengal Tigers."
  • Sheldon: Poor choice. Gram for gram, no animal exceeds the relative fighting strength of the army ant.
  • Raj Koothrappali: Maybe so. But you can't incinerate a Bengal tiger with a magnifying glass.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Okay, we're going to need a strong fourth for our team.
  • Raj Koothrappali: You know who's apparently very smart, is the girl who played TV's Blossom. She got a PhD in neuroscience or something.
  • Leonard: Raj, we're not getting TV's Blossom to join our physics bowl team.
  • Raj Koothrappali: How about the girl from the Wonder Years?
  • Howard Wolowitz: Gentlemen, I believe I've found the solution to all our problems.
  • Leonard: We can't ask Leslie Winkle.
  • Raj Koothrappali: Why? Because you slept together and when she was done with you she discarded you like last night's chutney?
  • Leonard: Yes.
