(Howard and Sheldon are looking through a rack of comic books. He doesn’t really help the point I’m trying to make. Leonard: Ah, yeah, that’s Captain Sweatpants. Penny: What about the guy over there in the superhero T-shirt tucked into his sweatpants? He went to the Rhode Island School of Design. Leonard: Penny, just because people appreciate comic books doesn’t make them weirdos. Penny: No, no, no, I just meant for… yeah. Leonard: You mean for someone who’s into comic books? Stuart: Let me know if you need anything. Blink twice if you’re here against your will. Leonard: Come on, I’ll help you pick something. Sheldon: Yeah, provided he has already read Infinite Crisis and 52, and is familiar with the re-establishment of the DC multiverse. Leonard: Don’t worry, they’re more scared of you than you are of them. Sheldon: Oh, I forgot Sensational Spider-Man. Penny: Ugh, that’s what I was trying to avoid. Leonard: You know this can go on all night, why don’t you just come with us? Sheldon: Amazing Spider-Man, Ultimate Spider-Man, Spectacular Spider-Man, The Marvelous Adventures of Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2099? Sheldon: Just pick out anything? Maybe at the same time we can pick out a new suit for him without knowing his size, or pick out his career for him without knowing his aptitude, or pick out a new breakfast cereal without knowing his fibre requirements or his feelings about little marshmallows. Penny: Leonard, could you pick me up a few comics for my nephew’s birthday? Comics are feeble attempts at humour featuring talking babies and anthropomorphized pets found traditionally in the optimistically named funny pages. While you’re there, could pick me up a few comics for my nephew’s birthday? What you have failed to take into account, Penny, is that this is Anything Can Happen Thursday. You’re probably thinking, the comic book store? On a Thursday? Why, I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole and into a land of madness. Penny: Oh hey, guys, where’re you headed? Raj: You heard that, Ladies’ Night ladies? We’re eventually coming for you! Howard: Alright, but next Anything Can Happen Thursday, we’re definitely going to a bar. Leonard: Or we could finish eating and go to the comic book store. Lock up your daughters! We’re going to hit it and quit it. It’s Anything Can Happen Thursday, let’s hit the clubs and meet hot women! Raj: Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s bounce, bitches. Crunching the numbers, I come up with a conservative 5,812 potential sex partners within a 40-mile radius. Howard: Neediness times dress size squared. You can modify it to calculate our chances of having sex by changing the formula to use the number of single women in Los Angeles, the number of those who might find us attractive, and what I call the Wolowitz Coefficient.
#THE BIG BANG THEORY SEASON 2 EPISODE 20 SERIES#
Sheldon: The one that estimates the odds of making contact with extraterrestrials by calculating the product of an increasingly restrictive series of fractional values such as those stars with planets, and those planets likely to develop life? N equals R times FP times NE times FL times FI times FC times L? Howard: Really? Are you familiar with the Drake Equation? Leonard: Come on, Howard, the odds of us picking up girls in a bar are practically zero. Which means, as the evening progresses, we will get better looking courtesy of 99 cent margaritas and two-for-one Jell-O shots. Howard: If I may proffer a suggestion, in bars all across this great nation of ours, Thursday night is Ladies’ Night. Leonard: Way to think outside but pressed right up against the box, Sheldon. Tonight, we’ll be going on Thursday, because it’s Anything Can Happen Thursday. Raj: We went to the comic book store last night. Leonard: Sheldon, we agreed we’d do something different tonight. And if we’re going to abandon that, then why even call it Thursday? Let’s call it Quonko Day and divide it into 29 hours of 17 minutes apiece, and celebrate it by sacrificing a goat to the mighty god Ra. Sheldon: Rut? I think you mean consistency. Howard: Come on, the whole idea behind Anything Can Happen Thursday is to get out of this rut we’ve been in lately. Sheldon: Well apparently the news didn’t reach my digestive system, which, when startled, has its own version of Anything Can Happen Thursday. Leonard: Yes, but we all agreed that the third Thursday of every month would be Anything Can Happen Thursday. Sheldon: We don’t have Thai food on Thursday.
