1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:01,960
Previously on Young Sheldon...

2
00:00:01,963 --> 00:00:04,632
Hello. I'm Sheldon Cooper, and this is

3
00:00:04,635 --> 00:00:07,070
"Why Sheldon Cooper
Should Go to College."

4
00:00:07,072 --> 00:00:09,161
Which is why I'm proposing
that I live at home

5
00:00:09,164 --> 00:00:11,304
but enroll full-time
to continue my studies

6
00:00:11,307 --> 00:00:14,209
with Dr. Sturgis at East Texas Tech.

7
00:00:14,212 --> 00:00:15,979
Hi, Mary.

8
00:00:15,981 --> 00:00:19,349
I know this must be a
hard decision for you,

9
00:00:19,351 --> 00:00:21,651
but if you let him come here,

10
00:00:21,653 --> 00:00:24,398
I promise we'll take good care of him.

11
00:00:26,191 --> 00:00:28,968
Sheldon Cooper: ready for college,

12
00:00:28,971 --> 00:00:30,793
ready to change the world.

13
00:00:30,796 --> 00:00:31,928
Cut.

14
00:00:31,930 --> 00:00:33,242
If that doesn't convince her,

15
00:00:33,245 --> 00:00:35,226
I don't know what her problem is.

16
00:00:40,338 --> 00:00:42,905
I'm excited to finally
use college-ruled paper

17
00:00:42,908 --> 00:00:44,774
and not feel like I'm living a lie.

18
00:00:44,776 --> 00:00:46,576
What's college-ruled paper?

19
00:00:46,578 --> 00:00:48,845
The lines are 18% closer together.

20
00:00:48,847 --> 00:00:50,847
College sounds hard.

21
00:00:50,849 --> 00:00:52,649
You won't have to
worry about that, honey.

22
00:00:52,651 --> 00:00:53,976
Okay.

23
00:00:53,979 --> 00:00:56,685
Missy, don't forget that you
have to pick out a present

24
00:00:56,688 --> 00:00:58,321
for that birthday next week.

25
00:00:58,323 --> 00:01:00,256
Mom, it's "Melissa" now.

26
00:01:00,258 --> 00:01:01,925
Middle school.

27
00:01:01,927 --> 00:01:03,984
- Who's Melissa?
- Me.

28
00:01:03,987 --> 00:01:05,328
Then who's Missy?

29
00:01:05,330 --> 00:01:06,896
"Missy" is short for "Melissa."

30
00:01:06,898 --> 00:01:09,332
Like how "Billy" is short for "William."

31
00:01:09,334 --> 00:01:11,267
I don't understand.

32
00:01:11,269 --> 00:01:13,736
You know how your real name is William?

33
00:01:13,738 --> 00:01:15,238
I'm Billy.

34
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,141
No, we call you Billy, but
your real name is William.

35
00:01:18,143 --> 00:01:20,644
But my underpants say "Billy" in them.

36
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:24,180
Mom, is my name William?

37
00:01:24,182 --> 00:01:25,682
Yeah.

38
00:01:25,684 --> 00:01:28,285
Then whose underpants am I wearing?

39
00:01:41,566 --> 00:01:47,820

40
00:01:50,542 --> 00:01:51,975
Thanks again.

41
00:01:51,977 --> 00:01:54,179
Robin is gonna be thrilled with this.

42
00:01:54,182 --> 00:01:56,296
Oh, don't thank me. Thank Mary.

43
00:01:56,299 --> 00:01:57,953
She's the one who said I had to do it.

44
00:01:57,956 --> 00:02:00,182
Just out of curiosity,
did she also mention

45
00:02:00,185 --> 00:02:02,118
helping me build the crib at some point?

46
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,421
No.

47
00:02:03,424 --> 00:02:05,388
Well, act surprised when she does.

48
00:02:05,390 --> 00:02:08,692
Dang it.

49
00:02:11,539 --> 00:02:13,462
What do you think you're doing?

50
00:02:13,465 --> 00:02:15,331
Trying to get the bike started.

51
00:02:15,333 --> 00:02:16,633
Why?

52
00:02:16,635 --> 00:02:18,268
So I can ride it.

53
00:02:18,270 --> 00:02:20,203
Like hell you are!

54
00:02:20,205 --> 00:02:22,138
Sorry.

55
00:02:22,140 --> 00:02:23,773
You don't use it.

56
00:02:23,775 --> 00:02:25,341
'Cause your mother won't let me.

57
00:02:25,343 --> 00:02:26,843
And if I can't, you can't.

58
00:02:26,845 --> 00:02:28,820
If I get it running,
can I at least sell it?

59
00:02:28,823 --> 00:02:30,086
No.

60
00:02:30,089 --> 00:02:31,981
But it's just sitting
here. What's the point?

61
00:02:31,983 --> 00:02:33,750
Point is I said no.

62
00:02:33,752 --> 00:02:37,988
I can't believe someone so lame
even owned a bike like this.

63
00:02:43,028 --> 00:02:45,162
Why are kids such a pain in the ass?

64
00:02:46,498 --> 00:02:48,832
I'm sure yours will be great.

65
00:02:51,305 --> 00:02:54,303
I feel like this cover
really says who I am now.

66
00:02:54,306 --> 00:02:56,306
That looks like all your notebooks.

67
00:02:56,308 --> 00:03:00,376
Missy got ponies. Melissa gets horses.

68
00:03:01,688 --> 00:03:02,694
Hello, Coopers.

69
00:03:02,697 --> 00:03:04,559
Dr. Sturgis here.

70
00:03:04,562 --> 00:03:06,983
This is a message for Mary.

71
00:03:06,985 --> 00:03:09,419
I have some news I
need to share with you

72
00:03:09,421 --> 00:03:11,854
before Sheldon starts college.

73
00:03:11,856 --> 00:03:13,105
Please call me back.

74
00:03:14,593 --> 00:03:17,139
I wonder why he'd want
to talk to you and not me.

75
00:03:18,196 --> 00:03:19,662
Dr. Sturgis again.

76
00:03:19,665 --> 00:03:21,850
If Sheldon happened to
hear that last message

77
00:03:21,853 --> 00:03:24,700
and is wondering why I'd want
to speak to his mother first

78
00:03:24,703 --> 00:03:26,770
and not him...

79
00:03:27,872 --> 00:03:29,339
Excellent question!

80
00:03:29,341 --> 00:03:33,009
It's that kind of
curiosity that makes him

81
00:03:33,011 --> 00:03:35,237
a true man of science.

82
00:03:37,115 --> 00:03:39,817
I'm a true man of science.

83
00:03:45,123 --> 00:03:47,390
- Hello.
- Hello, Dr. Sturgis.

84
00:03:47,392 --> 00:03:48,825
This is Mary Cooper.

85
00:03:48,827 --> 00:03:51,628
Hi. Thanks for calling me back.

86
00:03:51,630 --> 00:03:53,769
So, what's going on?

87
00:03:53,772 --> 00:03:55,031
Everything okay?

88
00:03:55,033 --> 00:03:58,434
Yes, everything is quite good, actually.

89
00:03:58,436 --> 00:04:00,068
Well, for me, that is.

90
00:04:00,071 --> 00:04:01,625
Um...

91
00:04:01,628 --> 00:04:05,197
did you know there's a
supercollider being built

92
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,042
in Waxahachie, Texas?

93
00:04:07,045 --> 00:04:08,911
No.

94
00:04:08,913 --> 00:04:11,682
Do you know what a supercollider is?

95
00:04:11,685 --> 00:04:13,092
Not really.

96
00:04:13,095 --> 00:04:15,053
Would you like a crash course?

97
00:04:15,056 --> 00:04:16,752
Which is humorous

98
00:04:16,755 --> 00:04:21,157
because it involves particles
crashing into each other.

99
00:04:21,159 --> 00:04:23,860
I'd like you to tell me what
this has to do with Sheldon.

100
00:04:23,862 --> 00:04:27,647
Well, that part's less funny.

101
00:04:27,650 --> 00:04:29,618
I've taken a job there.

102
00:04:30,484 --> 00:04:32,151
Hold on.

103
00:04:32,154 --> 00:04:35,604
You're not gonna be around
when Sheldon starts college?

104
00:04:35,607 --> 00:04:37,873
That's a great question.

105
00:04:37,876 --> 00:04:39,042
No.

106
00:04:39,044 --> 00:04:41,761
John, I agreed to let him go

107
00:04:41,764 --> 00:04:44,623
because you were gonna be
there to look after him.

108
00:04:44,626 --> 00:04:46,272
I know.

109
00:04:46,275 --> 00:04:48,917
And I feel terrible about it, but...

110
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,887
please understand,

111
00:04:50,889 --> 00:04:54,272
this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

112
00:04:54,275 --> 00:04:56,201
I couldn't turn it down.

113
00:04:56,204 --> 00:04:57,983
Orientation starts next week.

114
00:04:57,986 --> 00:04:59,327
I'm aware.

115
00:04:59,330 --> 00:05:02,297
Well, I hope that you're ready

116
00:05:02,300 --> 00:05:04,467
to hear him freak out when you tell him.

117
00:05:04,469 --> 00:05:06,537
I was kind of hoping
he'd just be excited

118
00:05:06,540 --> 00:05:08,904
I get to work on the supercollider.

119
00:05:08,907 --> 00:05:10,811
Right, because being
happy for other people

120
00:05:10,814 --> 00:05:12,037
is where he shines.

121
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,343
A supercollider?

122
00:05:13,345 --> 00:05:15,022
Well, you can't say no to that.

123
00:05:15,025 --> 00:05:16,258
I give up.

124
00:05:16,261 --> 00:05:18,347
Ooh, can you get me a bumper sticker?

125
00:05:18,350 --> 00:05:22,552
Did you know Dr. Sturgis
was taking a new job?

126
00:05:22,554 --> 00:05:23,865
What job?

127
00:05:23,868 --> 00:05:28,056
He went to work on some
supercollider in Waxahachie.

128
00:05:28,059 --> 00:05:29,759
What do you mean "went"?

129
00:05:29,761 --> 00:05:31,127
He's already there.

130
00:05:31,129 --> 00:05:34,097
- When did you hear this?
- He just called.

131
00:05:34,099 --> 00:05:36,933
I was counting on him
to be there for Sheldon.

132
00:05:36,936 --> 00:05:39,389
Well, you'd think he
would've mentioned it to me.

133
00:05:39,392 --> 00:05:41,108
Sheldon says it's okay with him,

134
00:05:41,111 --> 00:05:42,939
but I would certainly feel a lot better

135
00:05:42,941 --> 00:05:45,401
if there were adults
there that I trusted.

136
00:05:45,404 --> 00:05:47,358
Nothing on the answering machine.

137
00:05:47,361 --> 00:05:49,277
He's just a little
boy, and he's gonna be

138
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:51,108
on that big campus all by himself.

139
00:05:51,111 --> 00:05:52,944
I mean, I know we're not dating anymore,

140
00:05:52,947 --> 00:05:54,886
but I thought we were still friends.

141
00:05:54,889 --> 00:05:56,006
Excuse me.

142
00:05:56,009 --> 00:05:58,609
I think you're focusing on the
wrong part of the story here.

143
00:05:58,612 --> 00:06:00,980
He's little, you're
worried. Please continue.

144
00:06:01,993 --> 00:06:03,960
That sums it up.

145
00:06:03,962 --> 00:06:05,796
Okay.

146
00:06:13,115 --> 00:06:14,197
Missy.

147
00:06:16,056 --> 00:06:17,167
What?

148
00:06:17,169 --> 00:06:18,835
Help me with my clothes.

149
00:06:18,837 --> 00:06:20,604
Burn them and get new ones.

150
00:06:20,606 --> 00:06:22,506
Please, it's freshman orientation.

151
00:06:22,508 --> 00:06:24,341
I want to make a good impression.

152
00:06:24,343 --> 00:06:26,243
Fine.

153
00:06:26,245 --> 00:06:29,675
Which bow tie says mature
enough to be in college

154
00:06:29,678 --> 00:06:32,115
but whimsical enough to
discuss which came first,

155
00:06:32,117 --> 00:06:34,118
the Higgs field or the photon?

156
00:06:35,254 --> 00:06:37,254
They both say weird kid who eats alone.

157
00:06:37,256 --> 00:06:39,156
Come on. I know you're concerned about

158
00:06:39,158 --> 00:06:40,924
what you'll wear to middle school.

159
00:06:40,926 --> 00:06:43,261
Show me again.

160
00:06:44,429 --> 00:06:46,897
The blue one. Plaid's too busy.

161
00:06:46,899 --> 00:06:48,272
Thanks.

162
00:06:48,275 --> 00:06:50,766
Or don't be the kid in a bow tie.

163
00:06:50,769 --> 00:06:52,998
This is not the day to go crazy.

164
00:06:56,041 --> 00:06:58,942
My son, the college freshman.

165
00:06:58,944 --> 00:07:00,744
I can't believe it.

166
00:07:00,746 --> 00:07:02,112
How can you not believe it?

167
00:07:02,114 --> 00:07:03,947
You had to sign my vaccination form.

168
00:07:03,949 --> 00:07:05,282
Right.

169
00:07:05,284 --> 00:07:06,850
So, what do you want to do first?

170
00:07:06,852 --> 00:07:08,919
I was thinking we could
start at the bookstore,

171
00:07:08,921 --> 00:07:10,387
try and beat the lines.

172
00:07:10,389 --> 00:07:12,956
I agree about the lines,
but what do you mean "we"?

173
00:07:12,958 --> 00:07:15,292
I mean you and me.

174
00:07:15,294 --> 00:07:17,093
This is my first day. I can't be seen

175
00:07:17,095 --> 00:07:19,029
walking around campus with my mommy.

176
00:07:19,031 --> 00:07:21,565
Well, it's only orientation.

177
00:07:21,567 --> 00:07:23,967
Yes, and I'm quite capable
of handling everything

178
00:07:23,969 --> 00:07:25,902
that I need to get done today on my own.

179
00:07:25,904 --> 00:07:27,470
I'm sure you are.

180
00:07:27,472 --> 00:07:30,473
I just figured, with
Dr. Sturgis not around,

181
00:07:30,475 --> 00:07:32,342
it might be nice if I could be.

182
00:07:32,344 --> 00:07:34,844
No one else's mother is going to be.

183
00:07:34,846 --> 00:07:36,179
You don't know that.

184
00:07:36,181 --> 00:07:38,181
Well, I know mine isn't.

185
00:07:38,183 --> 00:07:40,517
You might want to watch the attitude

186
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:42,514
to the person who's driving you there.

187
00:07:42,517 --> 00:07:43,764
Not all the way there.

188
00:07:43,767 --> 00:07:46,255
Drop me off a block away
so no one sees us together.

189
00:07:46,258 --> 00:07:49,192
Sorry, I am not leaving
you alone your first day.

190
00:07:49,194 --> 00:07:50,360
Yes, you are.

191
00:07:50,362 --> 00:07:52,862
For someone going into college,

192
00:07:52,864 --> 00:07:54,864
you are acting very childish.

193
00:07:54,866 --> 00:07:56,266
Maybe it just appears that way

194
00:07:56,268 --> 00:07:58,001
because you see me with my mommy.

195
00:07:58,003 --> 00:07:59,928
Oh...

196
00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:03,839
Boy, I remember putting one
of these together for Georgie.

197
00:08:03,842 --> 00:08:06,109
It is great having y'all next door.

198
00:08:06,111 --> 00:08:08,878
Did you not hear me yelling
at Georgie last night?

199
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,114
It's okay. I'm sure
you'll hear our little one

200
00:08:11,116 --> 00:08:12,249
crying soon enough.

201
00:08:12,251 --> 00:08:14,651
Missy was a crier.

202
00:08:14,653 --> 00:08:16,581
Sheldon just learned to talk and said,

203
00:08:16,584 --> 00:08:18,555
"Father, I have soiled myself."

204
00:08:18,557 --> 00:08:21,391
Well, he's a miracle in his own way.

205
00:08:21,393 --> 00:08:24,261
Oh, you just put a positive
spin on everything, don't you?

206
00:08:24,263 --> 00:08:26,830
Kind of goes with the pastor territory.

207
00:08:26,832 --> 00:08:28,531
Okay.

208
00:08:28,533 --> 00:08:30,175
What if I said

209
00:08:30,178 --> 00:08:31,635
Mary and I have not had

210
00:08:31,637 --> 00:08:34,472
a real vacation since we had kids?

211
00:08:35,507 --> 00:08:37,374
I like to believe starting a family

212
00:08:37,376 --> 00:08:40,010
will be the most
rewarding adventure of all.

213
00:08:40,012 --> 00:08:43,313
You're good.

214
00:08:43,315 --> 00:08:46,249
You could not be more
wrong, but you're good.

215
00:08:53,458 --> 00:08:56,126
Can you show me where the
used physics textbooks are?

216
00:08:56,128 --> 00:08:57,661
Follow me.

217
00:08:57,663 --> 00:08:59,663
Normally I would prefer
a fresh new textbook,

218
00:08:59,665 --> 00:09:01,928
but my father is a high
school football coach.

219
00:09:01,931 --> 00:09:04,000
Which is another way
of saying we're poor.

220
00:09:04,002 --> 00:09:05,576
Here you go.

221
00:09:11,677 --> 00:09:14,451
Who owned this, a werewolf?

222
00:09:14,454 --> 00:09:16,246
Let's talk about the weather.

223
00:09:16,248 --> 00:09:18,315
It's going to be a
beautiful sunny day today

224
00:09:18,317 --> 00:09:20,331
with temps reaching a high of 97.

225
00:09:20,334 --> 00:09:21,412
Gross.

226
00:09:21,415 --> 00:09:24,553
In other news, President Bush
will be traveling to Waxahachie

227
00:09:24,556 --> 00:09:27,090
later this month to visit the site

228
00:09:27,092 --> 00:09:29,025
of a new supercollider.

229
00:09:29,027 --> 00:09:32,136
Scientists are hopeful this
will lead to exciting discoveries

230
00:09:32,139 --> 00:09:34,030
in the world of part...

231
00:09:36,568 --> 00:09:37,834
What?

232
00:09:37,836 --> 00:09:39,847
You said you'd show me
how to hot-roll my hair.

233
00:09:39,850 --> 00:09:42,472
Oh, right. You still want to do that?

234
00:09:42,474 --> 00:09:43,940
You're cranky.

235
00:09:43,942 --> 00:09:47,177
So maybe I shouldn't be putting
hot rollers on your head.

236
00:09:47,179 --> 00:09:50,147
Meh, you're always
cranky. Let's do this.

237
00:09:54,802 --> 00:09:56,836
Not so bad.

238
00:09:56,839 --> 00:09:59,474
I would have highlighted that.

239
00:10:00,661 --> 00:10:02,895
And someone drew genitals.

240
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,000
Oh. Mrs. Cooper?

241
00:10:11,002 --> 00:10:13,470
Oh, hi.

242
00:10:13,472 --> 00:10:14,704
Sam.

243
00:10:14,706 --> 00:10:16,573
Yes, of course.

244
00:10:16,575 --> 00:10:19,809
Oh, from, um, Sheldon's physics class.

245
00:10:19,811 --> 00:10:20,826
How are you?

246
00:10:20,829 --> 00:10:22,545
Oh, I'm-I'm good. Yeah.

247
00:10:22,547 --> 00:10:24,214
What brings you here?

248
00:10:24,216 --> 00:10:26,349
Sheldon's freshman orientation.

249
00:10:26,351 --> 00:10:28,351
- Oh, sure.
- Mm-hmm.

250
00:10:28,353 --> 00:10:30,019
You didn't want to go with him?

251
00:10:30,021 --> 00:10:32,489
I did, but, uh,

252
00:10:32,491 --> 00:10:34,891
he made it very clear
that he did not want me

253
00:10:34,893 --> 00:10:36,493
anywhere near him today.

254
00:10:36,495 --> 00:10:39,662
Well, I don't know Sheldon
well, but he can be a little...

255
00:10:39,664 --> 00:10:42,232
Rude, obnoxious, condescending?

256
00:10:42,234 --> 00:10:44,300
Oh, hey, I do know him.

257
00:10:45,470 --> 00:10:47,070
So are you just gonna sit here?

258
00:10:47,072 --> 00:10:50,273
Uh, well, just until it's
time to drive him home.

259
00:10:50,275 --> 00:10:52,409
Well, I can show you around campus.

260
00:10:52,411 --> 00:10:54,511
- No, no, that's okay.
- Yeah, no.

261
00:10:54,513 --> 00:10:56,679
Come on. I'll buy you a school shirt.

262
00:10:56,681 --> 00:10:59,449
Oh, he would be mortified to see me

263
00:10:59,451 --> 00:11:00,984
wearing one of those.

264
00:11:00,986 --> 00:11:03,386
That's why I'm offering. Let's go.

265
00:11:03,388 --> 00:11:05,054
Well, yeah.

266
00:11:08,894 --> 00:11:11,592
Wow, you're really
getting this together fast.

267
00:11:11,595 --> 00:11:13,862
- I feel like I'm not helping at all.
- Oh, come on now.

268
00:11:13,865 --> 00:11:16,466
You cut those oranges
into nice little wedges.

269
00:11:16,468 --> 00:11:18,301
I do it for the kids at Sunday school.

270
00:11:18,303 --> 00:11:20,171
They go to town on 'em.

271
00:11:22,707 --> 00:11:25,775
Did you feel ready
before Georgie was born?

272
00:11:25,777 --> 00:11:27,014
Absolutely.

273
00:11:27,017 --> 00:11:28,885
Boy, was I wrong.

274
00:11:29,516 --> 00:11:31,147
Why? Getting nervous?

275
00:11:31,150 --> 00:11:33,348
Well, if I can't get
a crib built on my own,

276
00:11:33,351 --> 00:11:35,418
how am I gonna be
responsible for a human life?

277
00:11:35,420 --> 00:11:36,803
Ah, you'll figure it out.

278
00:11:36,806 --> 00:11:38,988
And no sense in worrying
about it 'cause you never know

279
00:11:38,990 --> 00:11:41,024
what kind of curveballs
will come your way.

280
00:11:41,026 --> 00:11:42,631
- I guess that's true.
- Mm.

281
00:11:42,634 --> 00:11:44,694
The doctors could tell
us we were having twins,

282
00:11:44,696 --> 00:11:46,896
but they couldn't warn us
we were having a Sheldon.

283
00:11:46,898 --> 00:11:49,232
- You don't think I'm gonna...?
- Oh, no.

284
00:11:49,234 --> 00:11:50,767
They broke the mold.

285
00:11:50,769 --> 00:11:52,101
But...

286
00:11:52,103 --> 00:11:54,204
you could go the other
way and have a Georgie,

287
00:11:54,206 --> 00:11:57,674
so... some terror is called for.

288
00:12:00,612 --> 00:12:02,670
If you highlight everything,

289
00:12:02,673 --> 00:12:04,537
you highlight nothing.

290
00:12:04,540 --> 00:12:05,748
Uh-oh.

291
00:12:05,750 --> 00:12:07,917
Young man, don't move these books.

292
00:12:07,919 --> 00:12:09,185
I have a system.

293
00:12:09,187 --> 00:12:11,020
How's it look?

294
00:12:11,022 --> 00:12:12,289
Cute.

295
00:12:13,058 --> 00:12:14,190
Why are you here?

296
00:12:14,192 --> 00:12:16,326
I ran into Sam.

297
00:12:16,328 --> 00:12:17,861
Yes, you're a person I know.

298
00:12:17,863 --> 00:12:20,630
Hey, aren't you supposed to
be getting your I.D. photo?

299
00:12:20,632 --> 00:12:23,366
- I got a little waylaid.
- Can I help?

300
00:12:23,368 --> 00:12:25,668
No, everything is
perfectly under control.

301
00:12:25,670 --> 00:12:28,538
And take off that sweatshirt.
You don't go to school here!

302
00:12:28,540 --> 00:12:29,873
See?

303
00:12:29,875 --> 00:12:31,207
Worth every penny.

304
00:12:32,344 --> 00:12:35,144
Stay calm. You can make it.

305
00:12:35,146 --> 00:12:36,547
Aah!

306
00:12:38,583 --> 00:12:42,286
Honestly, who drinks a
Slurpee at 11:00 a.m.?

307
00:12:42,864 --> 00:12:44,531
Will this make me look older?

308
00:12:44,534 --> 00:12:45,754
Definitely.

309
00:12:45,757 --> 00:12:47,725
But not like you older, right?

310
00:12:48,303 --> 00:12:49,659
Right.

311
00:12:49,661 --> 00:12:52,195
You still dating that Marcus boy?

312
00:12:52,197 --> 00:12:53,459
Sort of.

313
00:12:53,462 --> 00:12:56,231
He went away with his
family for the summer.

314
00:12:57,165 --> 00:12:59,231
Just out of curiosity,

315
00:12:59,234 --> 00:13:01,902
before he left, did he let you know?

316
00:13:01,905 --> 00:13:03,106
Mm-hmm.

317
00:13:03,108 --> 00:13:04,974
Hmm, interesting.

318
00:13:04,976 --> 00:13:07,977
And how long before he
left did he tell you?

319
00:13:07,979 --> 00:13:09,279
I don't know, a week.

320
00:13:09,281 --> 00:13:11,247
Hmm, must be nice.

321
00:13:11,249 --> 00:13:13,249
You hear from him at all?

322
00:13:13,251 --> 00:13:15,385
Yeah, he sent me the cutest postcard.

323
00:13:15,387 --> 00:13:17,854
It was a turtle surfing on a dolphin.

324
00:13:17,856 --> 00:13:20,123
Adorable.

325
00:13:20,125 --> 00:13:22,259
Pulling kind of hard.

326
00:13:23,751 --> 00:13:25,562
I made it! I'm here!

327
00:13:25,564 --> 00:13:27,897
Fill this out and sign the...

328
00:13:27,899 --> 00:13:30,267
Um, there's a bee on you.

329
00:13:30,834 --> 00:13:32,134
What?

330
00:13:33,772 --> 00:13:34,837
Hey, Sam.

331
00:13:34,839 --> 00:13:36,353
Can I help y'all find anything?

332
00:13:36,356 --> 00:13:39,033
Oh, we're good. Just showing
my friend around campus.

333
00:13:39,036 --> 00:13:40,410
Oh, you a new student?

334
00:13:40,412 --> 00:13:43,413
- Oh, actually...
- Jason, this is Mary.

335
00:13:43,415 --> 00:13:45,111
Ah, well, hello, Mary.

336
00:13:45,114 --> 00:13:46,983
Allow me to welcome you to our school.

337
00:13:46,985 --> 00:13:49,419
- Thank you.
- Uh, you know, my dorm

338
00:13:49,421 --> 00:13:51,354
is doing a back-to-school
barbecue this afternoon.

339
00:13:51,356 --> 00:13:52,639
Y'all should swing by.

340
00:13:52,642 --> 00:13:53,890
Sounds fun.

341
00:13:53,892 --> 00:13:55,058
Cool.

342
00:13:55,060 --> 00:13:57,360
Braden Hall, in the courtyard, 1:00.

343
00:13:57,362 --> 00:13:58,629
See you there.

344
00:13:59,431 --> 00:14:00,697
Sweet, free food.

345
00:14:00,699 --> 00:14:03,564
Who cares? He thought I was a student.

346
00:14:07,572 --> 00:14:09,639
Okay. Smile.

347
00:14:09,641 --> 00:14:11,240
Just take the picture.

348
00:14:17,665 --> 00:14:19,786
I had suffered some setbacks.

349
00:14:19,788 --> 00:14:22,289
But just as Edison had forged ahead

350
00:14:22,291 --> 00:14:25,076
on electric lighting
without the help of Tesla,

351
00:14:25,079 --> 00:14:27,594
I was going to make
it through orientation

352
00:14:27,596 --> 00:14:29,696
without the help of my mommy,

353
00:14:29,698 --> 00:14:32,566
even if she did make
boo-boos stop hurting.

354
00:14:32,568 --> 00:14:35,769
While I had found inspiration
courtesy of Thomas Edison,

355
00:14:35,771 --> 00:14:40,274
it was soon replaced with anger
at Whitcomb L. Judson,

356
00:14:40,276 --> 00:14:41,873
inventor of the zipper.

357
00:14:41,876 --> 00:14:44,779
Oh, come on.

358
00:14:45,665 --> 00:14:47,614
What do you think?

359
00:14:47,616 --> 00:14:50,050
I think you're gonna be
a little heartbreaker.

360
00:14:50,052 --> 00:14:51,669
I don't want to break anyone's heart.

361
00:14:51,672 --> 00:14:53,187
I just want to look hot.

362
00:14:53,189 --> 00:14:54,579
Well, that you do.

363
00:14:54,582 --> 00:14:55,948
Thank you.

364
00:14:55,951 --> 00:14:59,292
And there's nothing wrong
with breaking some hearts.

365
00:14:59,295 --> 00:15:02,930
If you don't do it to them,
they're gonna do it to you.

366
00:15:02,932 --> 00:15:04,998
- Why would they do that?
- Because sometimes

367
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,801
men do things without thinking
how it's gonna make you feel.

368
00:15:07,803 --> 00:15:10,270
Marcus wouldn't do that. We're friends.

369
00:15:10,272 --> 00:15:12,105
That don't mean nothing.

370
00:15:12,107 --> 00:15:14,599
You think somebody's your friend,

371
00:15:14,602 --> 00:15:18,011
then they just up and
leave without a word.

372
00:15:18,013 --> 00:15:19,514
But Marcus told me.

373
00:15:20,516 --> 00:15:22,249
But Marcus told me.

374
00:15:23,574 --> 00:15:25,417
Like Batman's utility belt,

375
00:15:25,420 --> 00:15:29,088
my briefcase was equipped
for any emergency.

376
00:15:30,894 --> 00:15:32,693
I don't know if the
Bat-pants had a zipper,

377
00:15:32,695 --> 00:15:35,295
but if they did, I could fix it.

378
00:15:38,434 --> 00:15:40,535
Oh, dear.

379
00:15:42,238 --> 00:15:43,503
Two months!

380
00:15:43,505 --> 00:15:45,339
Two months till this baby comes!

381
00:15:45,341 --> 00:15:47,696
There's so much I thought
I was gonna do in my life.

382
00:15:47,699 --> 00:15:49,256
I'm sure you've done plenty.

383
00:15:49,259 --> 00:15:50,425
Nothing cool.

384
00:15:50,428 --> 00:15:51,485
Look at you.

385
00:15:51,488 --> 00:15:53,775
You played football
and rode a motorcycle.

386
00:15:53,778 --> 00:15:56,179
Well, you save people's souls.

387
00:15:56,182 --> 00:15:57,321
That's neat, right?

388
00:15:57,324 --> 00:15:59,021
Oh, it's neat as neat
can be, but you know

389
00:15:59,024 --> 00:16:00,520
that's not what I'm talking about.

390
00:16:02,124 --> 00:16:05,451
Look, being a dad doesn't
mean your life is over.

391
00:16:05,454 --> 00:16:07,127
It just means it's different.

392
00:16:07,129 --> 00:16:09,896
Instead of playing football,
I get to coach it now.

393
00:16:09,898 --> 00:16:11,821
I mean, high school football.

394
00:16:11,824 --> 00:16:14,391
Not college like I'd hoped.

395
00:16:14,394 --> 00:16:18,763
I-Instead of a motorcycle,
I drive a truck.

396
00:16:18,766 --> 00:16:21,834
To work every single day.

397
00:16:21,837 --> 00:16:23,577
To pay the bills.

398
00:16:23,579 --> 00:16:25,412
Oh.

399
00:16:25,414 --> 00:16:27,881
Endless bills.

400
00:16:27,883 --> 00:16:30,084
What happened to my life?

401
00:16:31,654 --> 00:16:33,688
Orange wedge?

402
00:16:34,388 --> 00:16:36,187
With only seven minutes

403
00:16:36,190 --> 00:16:38,457
until my freshman orientation seminar,

404
00:16:38,460 --> 00:16:40,160
I was in a sticky spot.

405
00:16:40,162 --> 00:16:44,599
Thankfully, I was armed with
an even stickier solution.

406
00:16:52,141 --> 00:16:53,640
Ah, you made it!

407
00:16:53,642 --> 00:16:54,975
- Hey.
- Hi.

408
00:16:54,977 --> 00:16:55,776
Hey, guys,

409
00:16:55,778 --> 00:16:57,277
this is Sam and Mary.

410
00:16:58,847 --> 00:17:02,049
Well, aren't y'all friendly.

411
00:17:02,051 --> 00:17:04,451
We are so excited to
have you here today.

412
00:17:04,453 --> 00:17:07,187
This is the most competitive
year we've had for admissions.

413
00:17:07,189 --> 00:17:10,190
So you should feel really good
about your accomplishments.

414
00:17:10,192 --> 00:17:12,726
You belong to an elite group of scholars...

415
00:17:19,201 --> 00:17:21,401
I may not look it, but
I'm the future of physics,

416
00:17:21,404 --> 00:17:23,102
so just move on.

417
00:17:24,740 --> 00:17:26,938
You have kids?

418
00:17:26,941 --> 00:17:28,141
Three.

419
00:17:28,143 --> 00:17:29,743
You look amazing!

420
00:17:29,745 --> 00:17:32,185
- Oh...
- Two of 'em are twins.

421
00:17:32,188 --> 00:17:35,415
I don't want to brag, but natural birth.

422
00:17:35,417 --> 00:17:36,817
Whoa.

423
00:17:36,819 --> 00:17:39,353
I love college.

424
00:17:57,434 --> 00:17:59,001
John.

425
00:18:07,048 --> 00:18:09,516
Dear Connie, you may have heard

426
00:18:09,519 --> 00:18:13,715
I've taken a job at the new
supercollider in Waxahachie.

427
00:18:13,717 --> 00:18:17,419
I wanted to tell you in person, but, uh,

428
00:18:17,421 --> 00:18:19,854
I was afraid you'd be upset.

429
00:18:19,856 --> 00:18:22,323
And, honestly...

430
00:18:22,325 --> 00:18:25,860
I was even more afraid you wouldn't be.

431
00:18:25,862 --> 00:18:27,796
Oh, John.

432
00:18:27,798 --> 00:18:31,696
This also gives me an excuse
to use my astronaut pen.

433
00:18:31,699 --> 00:18:35,170
I'm not upside-down, but if I was,

434
00:18:35,172 --> 00:18:37,906
it would still write.

435
00:18:41,711 --> 00:18:43,244
How you doing back there?

436
00:18:43,246 --> 00:18:45,947
I've never felt so alive!

437
00:18:45,949 --> 00:18:48,884
Praise the Lord!

438
00:18:51,206 --> 00:18:53,122
Let's go to Mexico!

439
00:18:55,402 --> 00:19:00,808
