The Dumpling Paradox

As Chen (the waiter at the Chinese restaurant) leaves Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Raj (Kunal Nayyar)'s table, he mutters "Young idiot" under his breath in Cantonese.

When Penny's friend Christy from Nebraska and Howard are in Penny's apartment and the guys need a 4th for Halo 3, Leonard suggests they play one on one and Sheldon has an issue with it. Leonard states the only way it's possible to play teams is to cut Raj in half. Raj responds with "oh sure cut the foreigner in half" when Penny is present in the room. Raj can not talk to women or while they are around him, but he did in this instance. However, Raj did not realize Penny was in the room, so his anxiety issue would not have prevented him from talking. It's not until the next episode season 1 episode 8 where Raj realizes he can talk to penny while drinking.
