So, how'd it go in Dallas today?
00:00
GEORGE SR.:
Went fine.
00:01
Sheldon seemed very comfortable
00:04
with the whole thing.
00:05
Welcome! How was the drive?
00:07
Eh, a little traffic comin' into
the city but otherwise okay.
00:09
Sheldon, I want you to
meet my husband, Elliot.
00:13
Elliot, this
is Sheldon.
00:17
Well, it's nice to
meet you, young man.
00:19
I've heard a lot about you.
00:21
MARY: George, that is
<i>not at all how they were.
00:23
-What are you talking about?
-There was
00:25
definitely something
off about those people.
00:27
Eh, a little traffic comin' into
the city but otherwise okay.
00:38
-(creaking)
-Sheldon,
00:41
I want you to meet
my husband, Elliot.
00:43
Elliot, this
is Sheldon.
00:47
Nice to meet
you, young man.
00:50
I've heard a lot about you.
00:53
-(Flora cackling)
-GEORGE SR.: Oh, come on.
00:59
You're making it out like
they were some kind of monsters.
01:01
Sheldon has
his own room.
01:03
There's books
everywhere.
01:05
Even has a big old backyard
he won't play in.
01:06
Aren't you forgetting
somethin'?
01:09
The underground laboratory.
01:12
GEORGE SR.:
I think it's called
01:14
a finished basement, honey.
01:15
Mary, it's been a long day.
01:19
Can we just have a quiet dinner?
01:20
(quietly):
"Nice people."
01:26
Then why did we leave him there?
01:29
Because we love him and
we want the best for him.
01:30
Watched a lot of football.
01:46
You know, the Dolphins' helmet
has a dolphin on it.
01:48
And that dolphin
is also wearing a helmet.
01:51
But his helmet doesn't have
a dolphin on it--
01:52
it has the letter "M."
01:54
We talked about that
for an hour.
01:58
Aren't we going to say grace?
02:08
Uh, we don't do that
in our house.
02:10
But you're welcome to do so.
02:15
That's all right.
I don't believe in God.
02:17
Well, then why would you say
grace?
02:19
Because it makes my mom happy.
02:21
And why are you wearing
mittens?
02:24
Well, I don't know
where your hands have been.
02:26
Maybe we should just eat.
02:31
Do you like string beans?
02:38
Sheldon, can you hear me?
02:57
It's your twin sister, Missy.
02:59
Everything's all right here,
03:02
but I think
Mom misses you real bad.
03:04
(sighs)
All right, I can't hear you,
03:09
so I'm gonna hang up now.
03:12
MARY: I'm telling you,
this is a terrible idea.
03:18
-This is a terrible,
terrible idea.
-MEEMAW: He's gonna be fine.
03:20
-You'll see.
-MARY: I can't believe
you're okay with this.
03:23
MEEMAW:
I'm not okay with this.
03:25
I'm just trying
to be strong for you!
03:26
What? You thought him
leaving was a good idea.
03:28
Oh, I only said that because
you thought it was a bad idea.
03:31
You know how it's always
my nature to go the other way.
03:34
I'll see you in a bit.
03:42
Where are you off to?
03:43
I'm going to Dallas
to get Sheldon.
03:45
-Really?
-Yeah, really.
03:46
What about this being
a great opportunity for him?
03:48
Y'all want me to go or not?
03:51
-Yes! Go!
-Yes, and hurry up!
03:52
MEEMAW:
Get a move on, Tubby.
03:54
-Where you going?
-To get Sheldon.
03:56
-Do I get a vote in this?
-No.
