I'm kind of torn between einstein,newton and sergeant fuzzy boots.

Leonard,do you really think you can satisfy your need

for a relationshh witip a genetically altered cat?

Maybe.

If it's a cute,little,cuddly cat.

Oh,come on. Leonard...

this is obviously about penny.

It doesn't matter.

The woman's not interested in me. The woman rejected me.

Okay,look,

I think that you have as much of a chance of having a sexual relationship with penny

as the hubble telescope does of discovering at the center of every black hole

is a little man with a flashlight searching for a circuit breaker.

Nevertheless,

I do feel obligated to point out to you that she did not reject you.

You did not ask her out.

You're right.

I didn't ask her out. I should ask her out.

No,no,now that was not my point.

My point was don't buy a cat.

No,but you're right.

I should march over there and ask her out.

Oh,goody,we're getting a cat.

Uh... no.

Oh,hey,leonard.

Good afternoon,penny. So,hi... hey.

Uh...

I was wondering if you had plans for dinner.

Uh,you mean dinner tonight?

There is an inherent ambiguity in the word "dinner.

" Technically it refers to the largest meal of the day whenever it's consumed.

So to clarify here,by dinner I mean supper.

- Supper? - Or dinner.

I was thinking 6:30 if you can go. Or a different time.

Uh,6:30's great.

Really?

Great.

Yeah,I like hanging out with you guys.

Us guys?

Yeah,you know,sheldon,howard,raj. Who all's coming?

They... might all be there.

Or a subset of them might be there.

Algebraically speaking,there are too many unknowns.

For example,sheldon had quiznos for lunch.

Sometimes he finds that filling,other times he doesn'T.

It's no fault of quiznos- - they have a varied menu.

Okay,whatever. It sounds like fun.

Great. Did we say a time?

6:30.

- And that's still good for you? - It's fine.

-'Cause it's not carved in stone. - No,6:30's great.

I'll get my chisel.

Why?

To... carve the... I'll see you at 6:30.

How do I look?

Could you be more specific?

Can you tell I'm perspiring a little?

No.

The dark crescent shaped patterns under your arms conceal it nicely.

What time is your date?

6:30.

Perfect. That gives you two hours and 15 minutes for

that dense molecular cloud of aramis to dissipate.

Is it too much?

Not if you're a rugby team.

By the way,if it should ever come up,you didn't join us

because you stuffed yourself with a chicken carbonara sub at quiznos.

Why would I join you?

No reason.

Oh,you know what,maybe this isn't such a good idea.

Oh,no,well,now there's always the possibility that alcohol and poor judgment

on her part might lead to a nice romantic evening.

You're right. Alcohol,poor judgment- - it could go well.

Of course there is the other possibility,

that this date kicks off a rather unpleasant six months

of the two of you passing awkwardly in the hall,

until one of you breaks down and moves to another zip code.

You could've stopped at "it could go well.

" If I could've,I would've.

I mean,I'm a perfectly nice guy.

There's no reason we couldn't go to the restaurant,and have a lovely dinner,

maybe take a walk afterwards,talk about things we have in common.

You love pottery? I love pottery!

There's a pause,we both know what's happening.

I lean in,we kiss.

It's a little tentative at first,but then I realize she's kissing me back.

She's biting my lower lip! She wants me!

This thing is going the distance! We're going to have sex!

Oh,god,oh,my god!

Is the sex starting now?

I'm having a panic attack.

Oh,okay. Uh,well then... calm down.

If I could calm down,I wobe having a panic att...

that's why they call it a panic attack.

All right,all right. Uh,s- s- sit down.

Yeah,sit down. Now close your eyes.

- Why? - Just do it.

Okay.

Now try to increase your alpha wave activity.

What? !

It's a biofeedback technique.

It's relaxation through brain wave manipulation.

I read a paper about it in journal of american neuroscience.

It was a little sparsely sourced,but I think the basic science is valid.

I probably have it here somewher E.

Who am I kidding? I can't go through with this.

You need to call her and cancel.

- Me? - Yes.

- What should I tell her? - I don't know.

- Tell her I'm sick. - Okay.

Not the kind of illness that will make her want to come over and take care of me,

but nothing so critical that she'll feel uncomfortable going out with me in the future
