AWESOME breakdown, chicky. Your episode summary made me lol a few times. I actually agree; I quite enjoyed this episode, I laughed a lot when I watched it. Except Leonard kept getting on my nerves. Yeah, he showed growth, but his whininess and insecurity just grated on me. But I enjoyed the Howard/Raj storyline (may have been overdone, but I still was giggling; I was always a fan of this when they did it with Joey and Chandler, so, I guess it doesn't get old for me) and of course every single time Sheldon opened his mouth. It's just, it seems like every time Leonard opens his mouth he's whining or making an ass of himself, and THAT gets old pretty quick for me, growth or not
( ... )
You know, I guess I'm at the point where I take some things for granted -- like Sheldon's gentlemanly ways -- that I didn't even think to mention it. That's just Sheldon.
Can't wait for the fic.
ETA: Your episode summary made me lol a few times.
Thank you; I particularly had fun with this one. 'Twas fun.
Exactly, it didn't take away from where the focus -- understandably -- should be now. I really do think it would have been too much too soon at this point.
Did it seem to anyone else as if Sheldon was giving Leonard the stinkeye when he was talking about Penny moving on to find another mate?
Which, actually, leads to another thought. Evolution would state that the female would automatically choose the most genetically advantageous mate. Sheldon knows darn good and well he's the most evolved of the nerd crew. Logically, if Penny is seeking intelligence rather than muscles as the genetic trait she wants to pass on to her children, then she would move on from Leonard to Sheldon.

Overall, yeah, he was being rather passive-aggressively snide about it, so it does fit into my theory from before. It wasn't until Leonard reached out to him that Sheldon started being nice to him again.
OT: Aww, your icon! On Twitter, myself and artincircles were using variations on that tag-line, LOL!
He then pretty much asks if Leonard's relationship with Penny is all about sex; Leonard pretty much concurs and then pretty much just walks away when Sheldon pretty much equates said relationship with prostitution. Oh, Leonard.Yes, “Oh, Leonard.” He doesn’t even deny it. But as you pointed out Leonard did show growth in the episode, and I didn’t mind him like I have lately

I was also hoping to read what you thought about Sheldon telling Leonard that maybe Penny was looking for another mate. It seems like Sheldon is waiting for Penny to drop Leonard when she finds someone more suitable. Sheldon just doesn’t care for their relationship.
That fell a bit into that first paragraph for me. Sheldon not happy with Leonard, blah blah blah. And, honestly, at this point, it's rote. Of course, Sheldon is going to rag on the relationship in some way. He always does. I'm waiting to see how next week plays out before I hit a long bit on that.
