Quotes

Sheldon: So I was talking to my mom about our Pemberton and Campbell situation.
Amy: Really? What'd she say?
Sheldon: Apparently, Old Testament God would bring down his wrath on them for being deceitful, but New Testament God would forgive them.
Amy: So couldn't we just bring down our wrath and ask the New Testament God to forgive us?
Sheldon: You know, I asked her that very question... She said I was full of California sass.

Dr. Kevin Campbell: (drunkenly storming into Sheldon's office to confront Sheldon and Amy) Dr. Cooper. Dr. Fowler. Just the guy I want to see.
Amy: Are you drunk?
Dr. Kevin Campbell: I was. And then, I still was. And now... I still was.

Dr. Greg Pemberton: All breakthroughs happen by accident.
Amy: (yelling) No they don't!

Dr. Greg Pemberton: Well, that's the great thing about science. We all get to have our own opinions.
Sheldon: (awkward pause)
(to Amy)
Sheldon: I'm still not talking. That's impressive, right?

Notes and Trivia

A scene where Howard goes to the Cheesecake Factory with Raj to find the waitress who had a crush on him was shot, but was omitted from the episode. Mimi Gianopulos still gets credited for the deleted scene, though.
