The Big Bang Theory - Episode 5.21 - The Hawking Excitation - Full Taping Report

Scene 1

Leonard, Howard, and Raj sit down at a table in the cafeteria. Howard says he got an unbelievable email. Raj says he hates to burst his bubble, but the enlargement pills don’t really work. Howard says trust him, he knows. And he says the email was from the office of Stephen Hawking – he’s going to be at the university to lecture for a few weeks, and is looking for an engineer to help maintain the equipment on his wheelchair.

Raj and Leonard get excited. Leonard suggests that Howard not do his Hawking impression in front of him. Howard (doing his impression), says Leonard is right, then said something else I never could hear clearly over the audience laughter. Raj says that Sheldon is going to flip when he hears. Leonard says yeah, he worships the man.

Howard says he thought he’d bring Sheldon along when he goes to let him meet Hawking. Raj says that’s really nice of him. Howard shrugs and says it’s no big deal. Leonard says, a restraining order from Stephen Hawking… that will look great next to the ones he already has from Leonard Nemoy, Carl Sagan, and Stan Lee.
