So while an animal cell has a membrane, 00:00
a plant cell has a membrane and a cell wall. 00:02
SHELDON: Who cares? 00:05
Sheldon, what are you doing? 00:07
Being disrespectful, sir. 00:08
Ah. How come? 00:10
Because I'm disillusioned with the school system. 00:12
Georgie, do you know what's going on with him? 00:15
Actually, I'm trying to ignore it. 00:17
Well, get your feet off the desk. 00:20
What if I don't? 00:22
I was sent to see Principal Petersen. 00:24
What is it this time? 00:26
Youthful rebellion. 00:28
My voice hasn't changed yet, but my attitude has. 00:29
I'll let him know you're here. 00:32
You do that. 00:34
Ma'am. 00:36
(door closes) 00:40
Sheldon Cooper's outside. 00:42
Who sent him now? 00:44
-Givens. -Well, you know what? 00:46
Givens needs to man up. Cooper's a little boy. 00:48
-It's not hard to handle him. -I'll send him in. 00:51
H-Hold on a minute, just... 00:53
Does he know I'm in here? 00:55
SHELDON (over P.A.): Attention, students and faculty. 00:56
Oh, no. 00:59
This is Sheldon Lee Cooper. 01:01
What the hell? 01:03
We're taught that hard work pays off, but that's not true. 01:05
I came up with a solution to save Earth 01:09
from killer asteroids, 01:11
and lost the science fair 01:12
to SueAnn Ludlow, and her frizzy hair machine. 01:14
But it wasn't just me who lost, we all lost. 01:17
Wake up, people. 01:20
The system's broken. 01:22
Real innovation isn't valued. 01:24
Nowadays, it's all about flash and style. 01:26
I blame MTV. 01:29
Luckily, my parents can't afford cable. 01:30
We can afford it. 01:33
I urge you all to rise up. 01:36
They can't send everyone to the principal's office. 01:39
Chew gum in class, 01:41
use a number one pencil, 01:43
go nuts. 01:44
This is Sheldon Lee Cooper signing off. 01:46
Live long and prosper. 01:47
You better run, you little punk! 01:49
01:51
(grunting) 01:53
MEEMAW: I can't believe you sent him to bed without his dinner. 01:55
That's right. 01:58
On spaghetti and hot dog night. 01:59
-That's rough. -He's got to learn. 02:00
Let's talk about something else. 02:02
Georgie, how was your day? 02:04
My brother told the entire school we can't afford cable. 02:06
Oh, right. Missy? 02:09
Good, until I learned we can't afford cable. 02:11
(sighs) 02:13
I've been thinking, and there's something I'd like to say. 02:15
Unless it's an apology, I don't want to hear it. 02:18
I'm quitting science. 02:21
Not an apology. 02:24
Spank him, Dad. 02:25
02:27
I'm really getting worried about Shelly. 02:33
Acting out, and now quitting science? 02:35
Oh, I'm sure he'll get right back to it. 02:37
I've quit smoking and gambling plenty of times. 02:39
Hmm. Look in my purse. 02:42
Nothing but cigarettes and scratchers. (laughs) 02:44
(sighs) Maybe he should talk to somebody. 02:47
Not it. 02:48
I meant a professional, George. 02:50
But way to be a dad. 02:52
02:54
(door opens) 03:04
Hey. (chuckles) Welcome back. 03:06
Thank you for seeing us on such short notice, Doctor. 03:08
Oh, not a problem. 03:11
Sheldon, 03:12
I remember you. Do you remember me? 03:13
I remember everything. 03:15
Okay. 03:17
Uh, you two, make yourselves comfortable. 03:19
Me and my main man Sheldon are gonna go 03:20
have a little chitchat in my office. 03:22
I don't like chitchat, and I'm not your main man. 03:23
Right on. 03:27
Have fun. 03:28
03:29
(door closes) 03:31
Now, Sheldon, I understand you've changed your mind 03:32
about being a scientist. 03:35
And you're gonna say I can't? 03:37
No. I think that's great. 03:39
-You do? -Yeah. 03:41
I think it's important to keep your options open. 03:43
Let me tell you a little story 03:46
about an extremely smart young boy. 03:47
Me? 03:49
Me. 03:51
For the longest time, I thought I was gonna be 03:52
a professional figure skater. 03:54
And then you became disenchanted with the field like I did? 03:56
Exactly. 03:59
Someone skated right over my foot. 04:00
And that was that. 04:02
I'm not sure that's the same thing. 04:03
I'd say you lost your passion the way I lost my big toe. 04:06
Hmm. 04:11
Don't draw in that. 04:13
Hey. We're all done. 04:15
-How'd it go? -Great. 04:18
I feel a lot better. 04:19
Well, that's just wonderful. 04:21
So, you're going back to science? 04:23
No. In fact, I'm going as far away from science as possible. 04:25
I plan to pursue the arts. 04:29
What kind of arts? 04:31
I've decided to become an actor. 04:32
Of course you have. 04:36
