00:01My new book, The Hidden Reality, takes on a grand question.
00:05Is our universe the only universe?
00:09You see, there's a growing belief among scientists like me
00:12that ours may only be one among many universes
00:15populating a gigantic cosmos.
00:18In The Hidden Reality, I explore this possibility
00:20without presuming any knowledge of mathematics or physics
00:24on the part of the reader.
00:26Hysterical.
00:28I'm glad you talked me into this.
00:30We work so hard.
00:32Sometimes it's nice to goof off and do something silly.
00:35Agreed.
00:36Wait till you hear how he dumbs down Werner Heisenberg for the crowd.
00:39You may actually believe you're in a comedy club.
00:42You can think about Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
00:45much like the special order menu
00:47that you find in certain Chinese restaurants
00:49where you have dishes in column A and other dishes in column B.
00:53And if you order the first dish in column A,
00:54you can't order the corresponding dish in column B,
00:57that's sort of like the uncertainty principle.
01:01Ba-dump-bump.
01:04Say, I heard an interesting tidbit about Howard and Bernadette.
01:08Really, Amy? Gossip? I'm disappointed in you.
01:12Now, now. Evolutionary biologist Robin Dunbar
01:15has identified gossip as an aid to social bonding in large groups.
01:19Forgive my language, but poppycock.
01:22What if he's right?
01:23And by not participating in gossip,
01:25society breaks down into small feral bands
01:28of tattooed motorcycle riders
01:29fighting to the death over the last few cans of tuna fish.
01:32Fine. In the parlance of the urban music scene,
01:35what's the 411?
01:39Bernadette is thinking about breaking up with Howard.
01:41I believe our nation's tuna cans are safe.
01:44Excuse me.
01:46Dr. Green.
01:47Question?
01:48Yes.
01:49You've dedicated your life's work
01:51to educating the general populace
01:53about complex scientific ideas.
01:55Yes, in part.
01:57Have you ever considered trying to do something useful?
02:03Perhaps reading to the elderly?
02:05Excuse me?
02:06Yeah, but not your books.
02:08Something they might enjoy.
02:12I kid, of course.
02:13Big fan.
02:20Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state
02:23that nearly 14 million years ago
02:26expansion started way over.
02:27The Earth began to cool,
02:29the autotrophs began to drool,
02:30Neanderthals developed tools,
02:32we built a wall.
02:33We built the pyramids,
02:34math, science, history,
02:35the unraveling,
02:36the mystery that all started with a big bang.
02:39Hey!
02:46Nice shot.
02:49My father taught me archery as a child.
02:57It's odd how the activity brings back the smell of Kmart bourbon.
03:03Perfect.
03:04I know.
03:06What an elf I would have made.
03:11What do you think you're doing?
03:13Shooting at a target?
03:14With what?
03:15An arrow.
03:16Really?
03:17I didn't see you draw one from your quiver.
03:20I'm not gonna do that, Sheldon.
03:22Leonard, the people at Nintendo can only go so far
03:25in helping us recreate an actual athletic experience.
03:29We have to do our part, too.
03:38That was uncalled for, but I'll play along.
03:42Ow.
03:46I had an unusual experience with Amy last night.
03:50Really?
03:51How could you tell?
03:52No.
03:54She was attempting to engage me in gossip.
03:58You don't say?
03:59Yes.
03:59I think prolonged exposure to Penny has turned her into a bit of a Gabby Gertie.
04:04So, what's the gossip?
04:06Oh, please.
04:07I was just pointing it out.
04:08I have no desire to engage in the activity.
04:10Fine.
04:11Don't tell me.
04:13All right, get this.
04:17Bernadette is thinking about breaking up with Howard.
04:20Oh.
04:21That's too bad.
04:22I wonder what happened.
04:23It's hard to say.
04:24I can only speculate based on the data I collected watching my parents' marriage implode.
04:29In that case, the woman dives into religion.
04:32Well, the man dives into a bottle blonde bartender who tries to buy my love with action figures.
04:39Oh, out of arrows.
04:52Well, you sure get your money's worth out of these games.
04:58Bria, can I come in?
05:00Sure.
05:02Oh, God.
05:04What?
05:05It's okay.
05:06You didn't know.
05:07I'll take care of it.
05:09What did I do?
05:11Sheldon doesn't allow flossing that close to the mirror.
05:14I'm kidding.
05:15It's a splatter thing.
05:17There's a little piece of tape on the floor you're supposed to stand behind.
05:21It's madness.
05:22I know.
05:23Just do it.
05:23There's a big inspection coming up and I don't want to lose my TV privileges.
05:28You really need to let me take a look at that roommate agreement one of these days.
05:32I don't know.
05:33I get a lawyer.
05:34He gets a lawyer.
05:35It's just easier to stand behind the tape.
05:38By the way, a fellow at work said I could use his Dodger tickets this weekend.
05:42Does that sound like fun?
05:43Yeah.
05:44Dodgers are baseball, right?
05:47You'll need to explain the game to me.
05:49It's complicated, but as I remember it, the essentials are get chosen last, get hit by the ball, cry, go
05:54home.
05:56Well, regardless, I've got four tickets.
05:59And I was thinking we can bring Bernadette and Howard.
06:02She's really interesting and I bet I can get used to him.
06:05It might not be a great idea to invite those two.
06:08Why not?
06:10Don't tell anybody I told you, but I heard she might be breaking up with him.
06:13Oh, too bad.
06:15Although I do know one person for whom that's good news.
06:18Really?
06:18Who?
06:19My brother.
06:20He's got a big crush on Bernadette.
06:24What?
06:26You're kidding.
06:27I know.
06:29I found poems you wrote about her.
06:31Very disturbing.
06:33Oh, Bernadette, please play my clarinet.
06:38Oh, that's hard to believe.
06:41Yes.
06:41And for years, everyone in my family was convinced he was the clarinet enthusiast.
06:49What's that piece of tape?
06:50Oh, that one doesn't apply to you.
06:52You sit.
06:56Hey.
06:57Hey, how's it going?
06:58Not too bad.
06:59Do you hear about Howard and Bernadette?
07:00Of course I heard about it.
07:01How'd you hear about it?
07:02I heard about it from Sheldon.
07:04He got it from Amy.
07:05Oh, damn it.
07:06I told Amy that in the strictest confidence.
07:08Boy, some people are such blabbermouths.
07:11Well, whatever.
07:12I'm sure Bernadette can do better.
07:14Do you think a sexually ambivalent Indian astrophysicist
07:17with selective mutism and alcohol issues
07:19is better than a hundred pound Jewish guy who lives with his mom?
07:24You are kidding.
07:25Raj likes Bernadette?
07:26I didn't say Raj.
07:27Who said Raj?
07:30Okay, Giv.
07:31How do you know?
07:32Did he tell you?
07:33No.
07:34Well, then who?
07:36I can't say.
07:38Priya told you.
07:39Oh, what a little gossip.
07:41You know, not an attractive quality in a woman, Leonard.
07:44Not judging.
07:44Just my opinion.
07:47Well, the point is, if this got out, it would destroy Howard and Raj's friendship.
07:51You don't have to worry.
07:53Unlike Amy and Priya, I know how to keep a secret.
07:57You're the one who told Amy in the first place.
07:59In confidence.
08:07Hello, Mommy.
08:07Hello, Daddy.
08:08How are you?
08:09We're very rich in a very poor country, so all in all, can't complain.
08:15So, Priya, how are you enjoying staying with your brother?
08:19It's fine, but if I'm going to stay in Los Angeles much longer, I think I should get my own
08:23place.
08:24Why?
08:25Is Rajesh not making you feel comfortable?
08:27Rajesh, why aren't you making your sister comfortable?
08:30I am making her comfortable.
08:32Besides, she's not sleeping here half the time.
08:34Anyway...
08:37What?
08:38Where are you sleeping, Priya?
08:40It's a figure of speech, Daddy.
08:42It means I work late.
08:45Please tell me you're not dating an American.
08:48I knew this would happen.
08:49Rajesh, are you letting your sister date that little Howard boy?
08:54Now, hold on.
08:55If she is dating an American, there's not a bad way to go.
08:58He's Jewish.
08:59Those chaps are very successful, and they don't drink a lot.
09:03It doesn't matter.
09:04Howard has a girlfriend.
09:05For now.
09:06What does that mean?
09:07I'll tell you later.
09:08Is there something going on with him and Bernadette?
09:10Who's Bernadette?
09:11Doesn't sound Jewish.
09:12You can't tell by that.
09:14Winona Ryder is Jewish.
09:18Okay, we're getting off the subject.
09:20Rajesh, I want you to try harder to make your sister feel welcome.
09:23Thank you, Daddy.
09:24Don't worry.
09:25Everything I have, I share with her.
09:26Including my friend.
09:29Goodnight, Mommy.
09:30Goodnight, Daddy.
09:32Oh, my God.
09:33I think you broke my toe.
09:36You should have kept your mouth shut.
09:38Fair enough.
09:40Now, what's up with clarinet?
09:41Bernadette.
09:47I've been thinking about Dr. Green's efforts to make science palatable for the masses.
09:52Huh?
09:53What about it?
09:55That's all.
09:55I've just been thinking about it.
09:59Now I'm thinking about fractal equations.
10:03Now I'm thinking about the origin of the phrase, train of thought.
10:08Now I'm thinking about trains.
10:12Are you listening to this guy?
10:14Hmm?
10:15Oh, I'm sorry.
10:16I was somewhere else.
10:18Lucky bastard.
10:22Now I'm thinking about Jell-O.
10:25So what's up?
10:27It's a Bernadette thing.
10:30Oh, no.
10:31I hope everything's okay.
10:36Whatever it is, we're here for you.
10:38You can tell us anything.
10:41Yeah.
10:41Good or devastating.
10:45I'm gonna ask her to marry me.
10:47Marry?
10:48What?
10:48Yeah.
10:49I just need to figure out the right time to pop the question.
10:52Oh, I...
10:53No rush.
10:53No rush.
10:57Oh, great.
10:58It's my cousin David about the ring.
11:00Hey, David, what'd you find?
11:01Oh, sure.
11:02Half a carrot's fine.
11:04Her freakishly small hands make anything look big.
11:08It's one of the reasons I love her.
11:14Man, he's gonna be blindsided.
11:17I know.
11:17It'll be awful.
11:22Why are you smiling?
11:25Yeah, Raj, why?
11:26A smile means something different in my country.
11:31You know, tears of joy, smile of sadness.
11:35India's a goofy place.
11:39Oh, I'm back to trains.
11:42Woo-hoo!
11:48Did I tell you our lab got a grant to study addiction?
11:51No.
11:52Fascinating work.
11:53I recently trained a capuchin monkey to smoke cigarettes.
11:57Have you learned anything?
11:58Yes.
11:59He looks much cooler than the non-smoking monkeys.
12:03Although it's not much of a contest.
12:05The other monkeys just sit around and masturbate.
12:11If you don't mind, I'd like to stop listening to you and start talking.
12:17By all means.
12:19Howard has announced his intention to propose marriage to Bernadette.
12:23I don't understand.
12:25The original piece of gossip indicated an impending breakup.
12:28I know.
12:28The group consensus is that his proposal will be met with a humiliating, soul-crushing rejection.
12:35Everyone was set a Twitter.
12:39Although, oddly, no one tweeted.
12:43It's not surprising that the story has captured the attention of our little circle of friends.
12:46Are you familiar with meme theory?
12:48I'm familiar with everything, but go on.
12:52Meme theory suggests that items of gossip are like living things that seek to reproduce, using humans as their host.
12:59I'm no stranger to memetic epidemiology.
13:02At Johnson Elementary School, the phrase,
13:05Shelly Cooper's a smelly pooper, spread like wildfire.
13:09I should think so.
13:11That's gold.
13:16Your meme hypothesis does intrigue me.
13:20How might we examine this more closely?
13:23Do you have any ethical qualms regarding human experimentation?
13:26It's one of the few forms of interaction with people that I don't find repellent.
13:32We need to fabricate a tantalizing piece of gossip.
13:35And a second non-tantalizing piece to use as a control.
13:38Then we'll track its progress through our social group,
13:41and interpret the results through the competing academic prisms of memetic theory,
13:44algebraic gossip, and epidemiology.
13:48Look at you, getting me to engage in the social sciences.
13:54You're a vixen, Amy Farrah Fowler.
14:03Oh, hey, Amy, what's up?
14:05Sheldon and I engaged in sexual intercourse.
14:07In other news, I'm thinking of starting an herb garden.
14:09Mum's the word, gotta go.
14:16Oh, hey, Raj, what are you doing here?
14:18I just feel like drinking alone, because I'm deep and dark.
14:24Uh-huh.
14:25So, uh, Howard's not here?
14:27No.
14:28This is one of those times when it's just you and me.
14:29Like, when the three of us went to the movies,
14:31and you and I waited outside the bathroom
14:33while Howard threw up red vines and cherry coke.
14:37Do you remember that?
14:39Yeah.
14:39Me too.
14:41Good times.
14:44The sixth team wants to order appetizers.
14:45Oh, thanks.
14:47This was nice.
14:52What the hell are you doing?
14:54Howard is your best friend,
14:55and that is his girlfriend.
14:56You should be ashamed of yourself.
14:58I was when I came in,
14:59but it's amazing what liquor does to guilt.
15:02Besides, what you might not know is,
15:04Bernadette is planning on breaking up with Howard.
15:06Well, I know that.
15:07How do you know that?
15:08My sister told me.
15:08Oh, that gossipy bitch.
15:13No offense.
15:14None taken.
15:14You should hear how she talks about you.
15:19Okay, listen.
15:20Just because Howard and Bernadette are having problems
15:22does not mean you should be here sniffing around.
15:24What can I do?
15:24I can't stop thinking about her.
15:27All right.
15:28Try thinking about this.
15:30Sheldon and Amy had sex.
15:32Shut your ass.
15:38Yeah, it's true.
15:40Amy told me.
15:40How did that even happen?
15:42Did they know that's what they were doing
15:44when they were doing it?
15:46I guess I just figured it out at some point.
15:48How?
15:50I can't believe all smelly pooper finally got laid.
15:57Hey.
15:58Hey.
15:59Hope you're hungry.
16:01Interesting.
16:02A friendly sentiment in this country.
16:04Cruel taunt in the Sudan.
16:09It's a lesson in context.
16:11Will Amy be joining us for dinner?
16:13Yes, I believe so.
16:15Good, good.
16:17Everything okay between you two?
16:25Yes.
16:27Why do you ask?
16:29Why do you ask?
16:30No reason.
16:32I was just talking to Raj and he mentioned what a lovely glow she has these days.
16:39Did he mean as if she'd been out in the sun tending an herb garden without wearing a hat or
16:45sunblock?
16:48No.
16:50That's not what he meant.
16:54Well, we may never know.
16:56As my mother would say, the Asians are an inscrutable folk.
17:03Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do.
17:06Yeah, you do.
17:07You dog you.
17:15Did you get that?
17:17Every word.
17:18Our false gossip meme appears to have reached node lambda.
17:21This is moving faster than we thought.
17:23Agreed.
17:24It appears the rate of gossip transmission is proportional to the number of nodes squared.
17:29I must say, Amy, pretending to have intercourse with you has given me a great deal of satisfaction.
17:37Slow down, Sheldon. I'm not quite there yet.
17:42Pass the soy sauce.
17:44Sure.
17:45Bernadette just asked about my sexual encounter with you.
17:48The meme has reached full penetration.
17:53Pun intended.
17:56No. Happy accident.
18:00This is remarkable.
18:02Less than 24 hours.
18:04I should let you know that she asked for details about our dalliance.
18:08Interesting.
18:09So it went beyond the mere fact of coitus to a blow-by-blow, as it were.
18:16Pun intended.
18:18I'm sorry, what pun?
18:22Not important.
18:25I described your lovemaking as aloof but effective.
18:30I wish you hadn't done that.
18:32That's going to make me a chick magnet, and I'm so busy as it is.
18:38Hey, everybody, I got something I want to ask Bernadette, and I can't think of a better time than when
18:44I'm with all my friends.
18:46Oh, hold on, Howard. There's lots of better times.
18:50Leonard, please, the man is talking. Let him get it out and let the chips fall where they may.
19:01Bernadette, Marianne, Rostenkowski.
19:03Oh, God, what's happening?
19:06I know things haven't been perfect with us, and we've had our problems, but I just have to tell you,
19:13from the moment I...
19:14Howard, let me just stop you right here.
19:15This is it.
19:19Yes.
19:21Yes, what?
19:23Yes, I will marry you.
19:25You will?
19:26You will?
19:27I will.
19:30I will.
19:31Oh, I love you so much.
19:32Oh, I love you too.
19:34Congratulations.
19:35I'm so excited.
19:41I wonder what changed your mind.
19:44Perhaps your talk of my sexual prowess renewed her faith in love.
19:50As good an explanation as any.
19:59Oh, hey, Amy. Bernadette just texted me. Howard proposed?
20:02Yes, not important. Just stop by to let you know I'm getting orthotics. Also, I'm carrying Sheldon's baby. Mom's the
20:08word.
20:15You're pregnant?
20:15You're pregnant?
20:19Wow. Is there anything on there about orthotics?
20:45...
