Quotes 

• Raj Koothrappali : [Cynthia watches a video from her drone's memory card]  Stop flying it around. You're gonna break it.

  Howard Wolowitz : Why do you care?

  Raj Koothrappali : Because we have to give it back to the beautiful mystery girl.

  Cynthia : Aw.

  Raj Koothrappali : I mean, did you see how hot she was? I want to get all up in that and start making babies!

  [her face distorts in disgust] 

  Raj Koothrappali : I know exactly what underwear I'm gonna wear on our first date. None!

• Raj Koothrappali : [relaxing in Howard's jacuzzi]  Oh, this is the life. What could be better than this?

  Howard Wolowitz : If you weren't wearing one of my swimsuits.

  Raj Koothrappali : I'll give it back.

  Howard Wolowitz : You know the rule. Once it touches heinie, it's no longer miney.

  Raj Koothrappali : You're such a prude. Do you know all the things this water's touching right now?

  Howard Wolowitz : [getting out]  Well, I'm relaxed enough.

• Raj Koothrappali : [looking at the drone's memory card]  I hope there's nothing disturbing on there.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Like you two in a hot tub?

• Howard Wolowitz : She's wearing a pin from your store. Do you know who she is?

  Stuart Bloom : Oh, sure, yeah. That's Cynthia.

  Raj Koothrappali : Wha- so... so, she's a customer?

  Stuart Bloom : Yeah, yeah, but I-I haven't seen her in a while. And before you say anything, there's a lot of reasons women stop coming here. It's not just me.

  Howard Wolowitz : But this time...

  Stuart Bloom : I-It was me, yeah. I was trying out a flirty new smile.

  [he demonstrates a strained smile] 

  Howard Wolowitz : Now, I don't use the word "ghoulish" a lot, but... I-I just can't think of another word.

• Howard Wolowitz : Can't believe you got her number.

  Raj Koothrappali : I know, right? How amazing would it be if this worked out and the story of how I met my wife started with you and me in the hot tub together?

  Howard Wolowitz : Well, do us both a favor and start the story later.

• Sheldon Cooper : Why are you wearing a Band-Aid?

  Raj Koothrappali : Halley bit me.

  Leonard Hofstadter : [laughing]  You got beaten up by a girl.

  Howard Wolowitz : Hey, that's sexist.

  Leonard Hofstadter : You're right.

  [he laughs again] 

  Leonard Hofstadter : You got beaten up by a baby.

• Raj Koothrappali : Hey, Howard, look. What's that?

  Howard Wolowitz : Huh. Looks like someone's drone.

  Raj Koothrappali : Oh, no. Do you think it was spying on us in the hot tub? 'Cause I'm only 40% of the way to my beach bod.

• Howard Wolowitz : Okay, that ought to do it. I replaced the propeller and re-attached the gimbal controller unit.

  Raj Koothrappali : Dude, you're like "Grey's Anatomy" for robots. Also, why isn't that a show?

  Howard Wolowitz : I just need to see if I can re-sync the controls to this old remote.

  Raj Koothrappali : We should name it.

  Howard Wolowitz : What, the drone or your stupid robot show?

  Raj Koothrappali : The drone. The show's already got a name: "General Bot-spital".

• Howard Wolowitz : I got it working!

  Raj Koothrappali : Oh, oh! Let's play William Tell. I'll put this bowl on my head. See if you can knock it off without hitting me.

  Howard Wolowitz : You read my mind.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : [entering]  What are you doing?

  Howard Wolowitz : Either breaking a bowl or breaking Raj's head.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Be careful. They don't make that bowl anymore.

• Bernadette Rostenkowski : Aren't you worried there's some kid out there missing his drone?

  Raj Koothrappali : Uh, oh, please, Bernadette, this is not a children's toy, okay? This thing's got a HD camera on it.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Okay, then aren't you worried there's some rich peeping Tom out there missing his drone?

  Howard Wolowitz : We asked around, and no one claimed it. I think we've done all we can do.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Did you check the video card? Maybe you can see where it started off from.

  Howard Wolowitz : [sarcastic]  What a great idea, honey.

• Bernadette Rostenkowski : That's not very much to go on.

  Raj Koothrappali : Oh, that's plenty to go on. We can't give up. We got to find her.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : You just want to find her 'cause she's cute.

  Raj Koothrappali : Not just because she's cute. She also owns a pretty expensive drone, which means she has money and doesn't mind wasting it. And I... I like that in a woman.

• Howard Wolowitz : Do you see anything that could help us locate her?

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Hmm, let me have a look.

  Howard Wolowitz : She's got eagle eyes, always spotting continuity errors in movies. It's not annoying at all.

  Bernadette Rostenkowski : Oh. There. Right there. Check out the pin on her jacket. It's that from the comic book store?

  Raj Koothrappali : Hmm, is it? Hey, Howard, zoom in.

  Howard Wolowitz : Oh. Fine. Zooming in.

  [making a whooshing sound, he holds the laptop up to Raj's face] 

  Raj Koothrappali : Yeah, I know you're being a jerk, but it's actually helpful.

• Cynthia : Hey, you found my drone.

  Raj Koothrappali : Yeah, yeah. Yes. It took a while to track you down, but to see the look on your face, it was worth it.

• Raj Koothrappali : [returning Cynthia's drone to her]  Rajesh.

  Cynthia : [shaking hands]  Cynthia.

  Raj Koothrappali : Ah, please to meet you.

  Cynthia : Likewise.

  [awkward silence] 

  Cynthia : I-I feel like I should give you a reward or something.

  Raj Koothrappali : Oh, no, you don't have to do that.

  Cynthia : I insist.

  Raj Koothrappali : How about your phone number?

  Cynthia : Give me your phone.

  Raj Koothrappali : [he does so, and she programs her number]  Thanks. So, I'll-I'll call you, Cynthia.

  Cynthia : Great, Rajesh. And thanks again.

  Raj Koothrappali : Sure.

  [he's barely walked away when her phone rings] 

  Raj Koothrappali : Just checking!

• Sheldon Cooper : What is happening? Everybody's supposed to be eating Chinese food.

  Amy Farrah Fowler : Well, actually, I believe the Chinese may have invented the sandwich. Their dish "rou jia mo" literally means "meat between bread." So it looks like all of us, including Penny, are eating Chinese food.

  Raj Koothrappali : Except for you, Sheldon. You're eating crow.

• Raj Koothrappali : Hey, please let me bring the drone back to her.

  Howard Wolowitz : You think you've got a shot? What if she's married?

  Stuart Bloom : She's not.

  Raj Koothrappali : It's meant to be.

  Stuart Bloom : A little tip. Uh, stick with the smiles you know.
