You're going to Billy's party.
But I don't want to.
And I don't want him to.
Too bad, he's going.
Then I don't want to go.
Everyone's going and everyone's going to have fun.
This is so unfair.
It is, you should run away from home.
So they don't want Sheldon at the party?
Sheldon doesn't want to be at the party, but you're making him go to the party.
I'm sure he'll have a good time when he gets there.
And this isn't just because you made a big fuss, and you're going to be embarrassed if he doesn't go?
No.
For a good Christian lady, you sure do lie a lot.
I just think it's important that every once in a while, Sheldon does normal kid things.
You realize he's not a normal kid.
Of course I do.
Then what are you doing?
I'm trying to make sure he knows how to be social so he doesn't become some lonely adult no one wants to be around.
Damn it.
Hello?
Hey, John.
Oh- George.
Uh, you just caught me on my way out, to a party, with people.
A people party?
Sure.
Listen, I just wanted to let you know that my schedule opened up
and if you still want to hang out, you can come over on Saturday and watch a game.
I don't know if Saturday works for me.
Okay, well you just let me know.
Wait!
Saturday is fine.
I'll be there.
Okay, have a good night.
Goodbye.
Sheldon's going to that party.
I'm a good liar.
What I get him?
Connect Four.
That was thoughtful of me.
Shelly come on, it's time to go.
Do I have to wait for Sheldon?
Can't I just go now?
No, we're going together as a family.
Greetings mother, I'm ready to beam down to the party.
You go on ahead.
Oh- Thank you Jesus.
What do you think you are wearing?
A Mr. Spock outfit.
I know it's a Mr. Spock outfit.
Then why did you ask?
You can't wear that.
No one else is going to be dressed up.
That's fine, I plan on pretending I'm a neutral observer of an alien culture.
Or you can go and play with the other kids and wear pants from this planet.
I thought you said I was supposed to have fun.
Go and change, you are not wearing that.
Then I'm not going.
You're going.
Then I'm wearing this.
No you're not
Yes I am.
Well, if you're gonna wear that, you need to participate.
Participate how?
Party games.
Cake and singing happy birthday.
No games, one slice of cake and I will mouth the words while the others sing.
One game and you need to interact with the other children.
[Music]
Fascinating.
It seems to be a carbon based life form.
I'm interacting.
Hello!
Sheldon's not home.
Oh, I'm here to watch a sporting event with your father.
Really?
Yes, he only called it the game, so I don't know which one it is.
Well, this is just great.
Come on in.
Thank you.
Hey dad, Doctor Sturgis is here to watch football with you.
Oh, football.
Good, that was the one I read up on.
Hey John, nice to see you.
You too.
Uh- brought some snacks for the game.
How nice.
Hope you like grapes.
Oh, there's nothing my dad loves more than football and grapes.
Hey, why don't you head on into the den John?
You get lost.
So you two can feed each other grapes?
Got it.
Hmm'hmm.
Gallus gallus domesticus, otherwise known as Earth chicken.
Live long and prosper, you filthy bird.
I thought you didn't like chickens.
Sheldon doesn't like chickens.
Mr. Spock finds them fascinating.
Who's Mr. Spock?
I'm Mr. Spock.
I'm Billy, whatcha doing?
Using my tricorder to collect data.
What's a tricorder?
It's a multifunctional handheld device used for scanning and analysis.
Cool, and what's everything you just said?
Fascinating.
