Quotes8

  • Raj Koothrappali: Do you know what he did? He watched me work for ten minutes, and then started to design a simple piece of software that could replace me.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Is that even possible?
  • Raj Koothrappali: As it turns out, yes.
  • Penny: Oh, hey guys, what's up?
  • Howard Wolowitz: We need a hot fifteen year old Asian girl with a thing for smart guys.
  • Penny: What?
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Howard, that's racist. Any fifteen year old girl will do the trick.
  • [Penny slams door]
  • Raj Koothrappali: It's possible she may have misunderstood us.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Smart is the new sexy.
  • Leonard: Then why do we go home alone every night? We're still smart.
  • Rajesh Koothrapali: Maybe we're too smart... so smart it's off-putting.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Yeah, let's go with that.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Okay, so we now have a socially awkward genius in a room full of attractive, age-appropriate women.
  • Howard Wolowitz: All he has to do now is hook up with one of them.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Anyone else see the flaw in this plan?
  • Raj Koothrappali: We need a social catalyst.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: Like what? We can't get fifteen year old girls drunk.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Or can we...?
  • Leonard Hofstadter: No, we can't!
  • [last lines]
  • Raj Koothrappali: Hey, look at that. It's Dennis Kim.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Wow, I almost didn't recognize him.
  • Raj Koothrappali: You know, I kind of feel bad about what we did to him.
  • [Kim is locked in a kiss with a blond girl]
  • Leonard Hofstadter: [sarcastic] Yeah, we really ruined his life.
  • Sheldon Cooper: Screw him. He was weak.
  • Leonard Hofstadter: The kid got a girl.
  • Raj Koothrappali: Unbelievable.
  • Howard Wolowitz: Did anyone see how he did it?
  • Raj Koothrappali: We can't send him back to North Korea. He knows how to get out.
  • Raj Koothrappali: You know, if we were in India, this would be simpler. Five minutes with her dad, twenty goats and a laptop, and we'd be done.
