[last lines]
Penny : [after Sheldon gives her several gift baskets] Sheldon, what did you do?
Sheldon Cooper : I know! It's not enough, is it? Here...
[gingerly hugs Penny]
Penny : Leonard, look! Sheldon's hugging me!
Leonard Hofstadter : It's a Saturnalia miracle!
-
Penny : How do you know Leonard?
Dr. David Underhill : I'm a physicist.
Penny : [laughing] No, you're not.
Dr. David Underhill : Why is that so surprising?
Penny : Well, it's just that the physicists I know are indoorsy and pale.
Leonard Hofstadter : I'm not indoorsy. I just wear the appropriate sunblock because I don't take melanoma lightly.

[after dismissing Dave's accomplishments, Leonard gushes when Dave wants to work with him]
Leonard Hofstadter : What are you looking at? You've never seen a hypocrite before?

[first lines]
Sheldon Cooper : Your argument is lacking in all scientific merit. Now, it is well established Superman cleans his by flying into Earth's yellow sun, which incinerates any contaminant matter and leaves the invulnerable kryptonian fabric unharmed and daisy-fresh.
Howard Wolowitz : What if he gets something kryptonian on it?
Sheldon Cooper : Like what?
Howard Wolowitz : I don't know. Kryptonian mustard.
Sheldon Cooper : I think we can safely assume all Kryptonian condiments were destroyed when the planet Krypton exploded.
Raj Koothrappali : Or it turned into mustard kryptonite, the only way to destroy a rogue kryponian hot dog threatening Earth.
Leonard Hofstadter : Raj, please. Let's stay serious here.

Penny : David was just showing me around the university. You know, this place is unbelievable.
Leonard Hofstadter : Yeah, I know. I've been offering to show you around for a year and a half. You always said you had yoga.
Penny : I never said that.
Leonard Hofstadter : Maybe I heard you wrong. A lot of words sound like yoga.
-
Sheldon Cooper : Where were you that's more important than Wii Bowling night?
Leonard Hofstadter : Actually, I was...
Sheldon Cooper : It's a rhetorical question; there *is* nothing more important than Wii Bowling night.
Leonard Hofstadter : Come on! It's just a video game. And we suck at it.
Sheldon Cooper : [gasps] Nice motivational speech from the team captain.
-
Leonard Hofstadter : Look, the guy was just in the right place at the right time with the right paradigm-shifting re-interpretation of the universe; he got lucky.
-
Leonard Hofstadter : So, um, Dave, don't you think you and I should get back to the lab? You know, that dark matter isn't going to detect itself.
Dr. David Underhill : Actually, I was thinking about taking the afternoon off so I could work on another experiment with Penny.
Penny : Really? We're, we're going to do an experiment.
Dr. David Underhill : Uh-huh, we're going to explore the effects of tequila shots on a gorgeous 22-year-old woman.
Penny : [laughs] That's not an experiment; you saw what happened last night.

Leonard Hofstadter : I have just one question for you. While I am perfectly happy with the way things are between us, you said that you didn't want to go out with me because I was too smart for you. Well, newsflash, Lady. David Underhill is ten times smarter than me. You'd have to drive a railroad spike in his brain for me to beat him at checkers. Next to him, I am like one of those sign-language gorillas who knows how to ask for grapes. So my question is, what's up with that?
Penny : [crying] Why are you yelling at me?
Leonard Hofstadter : Sorry! I'm sorry I'm sorry. Never mind. We're cool.
Penny : Dave is not smarter than you. He's an idiot.
Leonard Hofstadter : [chuckling] Really? Why would you say that?
Penny : Because. A smart guy takes the nude photos of his wife off his cell phone before he tries to take nude photos of his girlfriend.
Leonard Hofstadter : He tried to take nude photos of you?
Penny : [screaming] That's what you took from that? The guy is married!
Leonard Hofstadter : Oh yeah. I'm sorr... oh, that's terrible!
Penny : And you. If you are so okay with the way things are between us, why are you so jealous?
Leonard Hofstadter : Well, tha... The important thing is he's married, and that's terrible!
Penny : Nice save, genius.
-
Leonard Hofstadter : I have two words for you: the first is 'Big', the other's 'Whoop'.
-
Dr. David Underhill : So you and her...
Leonard Hofstadter : No, just neighbors.
Dr. David Underhill : Really? I don't know how you live next door to that without doing something about it.
-
Penny : Ooo, are you okay?
Leonard Hofstadter : Oh yeah, it's just a little motorcycle accident.
Penny : My God, how fast were you going?
Leonard Hofstadter : I don't know, it's all such a blur.
Dr. David Underhill : [laughs] Good one. He couldn't even get it started. Hi, Dave.
Penny : Hi, Penny. Your motorcycle?
Dr. David Underhill : Uh huh.
Penny : Oh, is it okay?
Leonard Hofstadter : Lucky for the bike, it landed on my leg.
