Quote:

Sheldon and Leonard are asked to a physics conference to present their work together, but that leads to a feud because Sheldon's too arrogant to share the honor. Penny does her best to mediate, but only makes things worse.

Favourite scene: When Penny tries to blow up Howard's mind.

Favourite line: Oh no he didn't. The way Simon said the line...priceless.

Overall thoughts: I enjoyed the episode because it focused more on the boys interactions. Especially Leonard/Sheldon. It also had funny scenes, where one could see the differences between Penny and the guys, e.g. when they showed her that they could turn down the music by sending a signal around the world, when Penny was picking something to wear for Leonard or when she didn't get the joke.

Oops, I realized I didn't fill it out either.

Favourite scene: The mind blowing thig was hilarious.

Or Sheldon and Penny in the hall getting mail.

Favourite line:
Penny: Get anything good?
Sheldon: Just the latest copy of Applied Particle Physics Quarterly.
Penny: Oh, you know, that is so weird that yours came and mine didn't!
Overall thoughts: I still don't see how the guys put up with Sheldon, but it's definitely entertaining.

Did you notice that was the same conference room when they had that Physics Bowl tournament?

The eye-glare stares are always cute.

Penny: (Leonard picks up a shirt) "I SAID NO PUT IT DOWN!" You can see the married couple in training with Leonard & Penny in scenes like those.

This is one of season 1's highlights, with penny "trying to make Howard's brain explode" being my favorite.

Sometimes I also use Sheldon's, "No we don’t. We have to take in nourishment, expel waste, and inhale enough oxygen to keep ourselves from dying, everything else is optional." whenever someone says, "I/we need...Etc."

Oh yeah, definitely.

I also liked from that ep: "just put them on." "Here?" "Don't worry, I won't look." "I know you won't look, why would you look, there's nothing to see, well not nothing..." "SWEETIE, PUT THE PANTS ON!"
