The Big Bang Theory

English Subtitles. The Big Bang Theory S09E22 The Fermentation Bifurcation

Oh, hey, if you guys are free this weekend,

I won a night of wine tasting from work.

That sounds fun. Mm-hmm.

How come scientists don't win free stuff like salespeople do?

'Cause we're not in it for the stuff.

We're in it for the groupies.

Personally,

I find the notion of external rewards demeaning.

I pursue science for the intrinsic joy of discovery.

But you always say that you want to win a Nobel Prize.

I also say don't contradict me in front of my friends,

but that you don't remember.

All right, well, let me know if you guys want to go.

I would love to.

I do enjoy the complexity of an aged Pinot noir.

I'm sure that would pair nicely

with your fried nuggets of chicken.

Well, it sounds like a nice night. We should go.

Wine again?

Yeah, no, thank you.

I like my grapes the old-fashioned way:

in a juice box.

Well, I'm going.

You couldn't stop me from getting a massage at the mall,

and you're not stopping me now.

I shouldn't have to see my girlfriend

get groped in public by another man.

And I shouldn't have to see my boyfriend

riding on a train for children around the mall.

The little choo-choo for toddlers?

And now you know why I needed the massage.

Well, we're out.

Bernie can't drink 'cause she's pregnant.

And she's pregnant because we had sex.

And we had sex because...

well, come on.

It's okay. You should go.

You sure?

Of course.

Yeah, give her a break from, “Well, come on.”

Well, Bernadette, looks like Saturday night, it's you and me.

Me? How? Why?

Well, it makes perfect sense.

Because you're an expectant mother, you can't drink alcohol.

I don't like to.

You can't have sushi.

I don't like to.

You can't go in hot tubs.

I consider them vats of sweaty people soup.

Gee, Sheldon, I don't know.

Oh, come on.

Roller coasters, caffeine, runny eggs--

I've been avoiding these things all my life.

And now, because you're pregnant, you have to.

The difference is she's bringing life into the world,

and you suck it out.

I guess we could give it a try.

Well, little lady, you've heard of party hearty;

get ready to party hardly.

I bet you'd like a drink right now.

Hey, you think it'd be okay

if I brought Claire to the wine tasting?

Sure. I'd like to meet her. Oh, that's great.

I've been wanting her to meet you guys, too,

so this seems like the perfect opportunity.

Oh, but I won't be there.

Funny how that worked out.

Does this mean Emily's not in the picture anymore?

No, I'm still dating her.

Okay, help me out.

How are you doing this?

Do they know about each other?

They know that we're not exclusive,

and we just don't ask too many questions.

You know, it's like how I play Warlords of Ka'a with you

and Elder Sign with Frank and Alicia.

Who's Frank and Alicia?

Y... You and I spend a lot of time together.

Can there be a little mystery between us?

Okay.

Everything's hooked up. We're ready.

I am going to record this for posterity.

All right, here goes nothing.

Here goes nothing?

This is the initial test of our prototype.

Can we give it a little more gravitas?

Fine.

Preliminary trial of the infinite persistence

gyroscopic navigational system: phase one commencing.

Eh... maybe it's your voice.

I'm gonna see if I can get James Earl Jones to do it in post.

Ooh.

Wow.

It's... it's-it's beautiful.

Actually, it's making me dizzy.

Good, it's not just me.

Hello.

Hey, Claire.

Hey, what's up?

Hi, yeah.

Um, I was wondering,

if you're free Saturday night,

all my friends are going to a wine tasting.

Sure, I guess.

If you don't think meeting your friends is too big a step.

Why would it be too big a step?

I don't know. I just don't want things to get weird.

Nothing to worry about.

People meet people all the time,

and it isn't weird.

I met Bon Jovi once, which you'd think might be weird.

Turns out, total sweetheart.

Okay, but you and I have been keeping things casual.

Uh, will you introduce me as your friend

or as your girlfriend?

What if I like them

and they don't like me?

What if they like me and I don't like them?

Boy, it wasn't this hard with Bon Jovi.

I said, “You rock,” he said, “Thanks, man,”

and that was that.

Hey, you ready to go?

Hang on. What are you doing?

Oh, I found a scratch-and-sniff book about wine tasting.

It teaches the different flavor notes to look for.

You actually smell the wine?

I mostly just smell my nasal spray.

Are your sinuses acting up?

Since my preschool got a bunny.

Hey, are you still hanging out with Bernadette tonight?

Yes.

And we're going to prove that we don't need alcohol

to enjoy ourselves.

Oh, good for you.

Or caffeine, tobacco, sushi,

soft cheese, processed meats and Jacuzzis,

which can all be harmful to an unborn baby.

No HoneyBaked Ham in a hot tub-- got it.

Oh, no bubble baths either.

They can increase the risk of a urinary tract infection.

Okay, have fun.

Oh, and no swordfish, king mackerel, shark or tilefish,

which are all high in mercury.

We're leaving now!

Oh, and no contact with guinea pigs

or hamsters or their droppings,

uh, no-no cat litter boxes, no paint fumes...

Okay, we're leaving, love you, bye!

Boy, do I love restrictions.

Hey.

Where is everybody?

Oh, we're the first ones here.

Oh.

Cool.

Yeah.

Cool.

You know, I don't remember the last time

it was just you and me hanging out.

Oh, I do. It was three years ago.

Oh, yeah, and we said we should do it more often.

And-and here we are.

So, Sheldon and Bernadette are hanging out.

I know. What are they gonna talk about?

I don't know.

I really don't know.

Hey.

Oh, good! Oh, thank God!

You guys been here long?

No, two minutes.

But yes.

Where's Claire?

Oh, she's meeting us here.

Hey, guys, do me a favor and don't ask too many questions

about the relationship.

We're just keeping it casual.

Oh, so I shouldn't ask her how she feels about being

a member of your harem?

Yeah, I know you're teasing, but watch out for karma.

Hey, Penny, isn't that your old boyfriend Zack?

Oh, yeah.

Are you gonna say hi to him?

Uh, I don't know.

Hey, while you decide,

who was better in bed:

big hot Zack or wheezy little Leonard?

Neener neener.

I brought sparkling cider.

Oh... the bubbles tickle my nose.

I'll just open this now so it can get

nice and flat before we drink it.

So what do you want to do tonight?

Oh, I have quite the evening planned.

Our fetus-friendly festival of fun begins

with an in-depth look

at the world of model trains,

and then we'll kick things up a notch and explore

all the different ways that you can make toast.

There's more than one?
