Well,what exactly do you mean by embarrass you?

Well,for example,tonight,

no one needs to know that my middle name is Leakey.

But there's nothing embarrassing about that.

Your father worked with Louis Leakey, a great anthropologist.

It had nothing to do with your bed-wetting.

All m saying is that this party is the perfect opportunity for Penny

to see me as a member of her peer group,

a potential close friend,and perhaps more,

and I don't want to look like a dork.

Just a heads up,fellas.

If anyone gets lucky,I've got a dozen condoms in my quiver.

Oh,hey,guys.

Hey. Sorry we're late.

Late?

It's 7:05.

And you said the party starts at 7:00.

Well,yeah,I mean,when you start a party at 7:00,

no one shows up at,you know,7:00.

It's 7:05.

Yes. Yes,it is.

Okay. Well,um,come on in.

So,what,are all the girls in the bathroom?

Probably,but in their own homes.

So,what time does the costume parade start?

The parade?

Yeah,so the judges can give out the prizes for best costume.

You know,most frightening,most authentic,

most accurate visualization of a scientific principal.

Oh,Sheldon,I'm sorry,

but there aren't going to be any parades

or judges or prizes.

This party is just going to suck.

No! Come on,it's going to be fun,

and you all look great.

I mean,look at you,Thor,

and,oh,Peter Pan. That's so cute.

- Actually,Penny,he's Robin Hood. - I'm Peter Pan.

And I got a handful of pixie dust with your name on it.

No,you don't.

Uh,hey,what's Sheldon supposed to be?

Oh,he's the Doppler effect.

Yes. It's the apparent change in the frequency of a wave

caused by relative motion between the source of the wave and the observer.

Oh,sure,I see it now.

The Doppler effect.

All right,I got to shower.

You guys,um,make yourselves comfortable.

Okay.

See? People get it.

By Odin's beard,this is good Chex mix.

No,thanks. Peanuts.

I can't afford to swell up in these tights.

I'm confused.

If there's no costume parade,what are we doing here?

We're socializing,meeting new people.

Telepathically?

Oh,hey,when did you get here?

Hi.

Penny is wearing the worst Catwoman costume I've ever seen.

And that includes Halle Berry's.

She's not Catwoman. She's just a generic cat.

And that's the kind of sloppy costuming

which results from a lack of rules and competion.

Hey,guys,check out the sexy nurse.

I believe it's time for me to turn my head and cough.

What is your move?

I'm going to use the mirror technique.

She brushes her hair back,I brush my hair back...

She shrugs,I shrug.

Subconsciously she's thinking,"We're in sync. We belong together."

Where do you get this stuff?

You know,psychology journals,Internet research,

and there's this great show on VH-1 about how to pick up girls.

Oh,if only I had his confidence.

I have such difficulty speaking to women,or around women...

or at times even effeminate men.

If that's a working stethoscope,

maybe you'd like to hear my heart skip a beat?

No,thanks.

No,seriously,you can.I have transient idiopathic arrhythmia.

I want to get to know Penny's friends,

I just… I don't know how to talk to these people.

Well,I actually might be able to help.

How so?

Like Jane Goodall observing the apes,

I initially saw their interactions as confusing and unstructured.

But patterns emerge.

They have their own language,if you will.

Go on.

Well,it seems that the newcomer approaches the existing group with the greeting,

"How wasted am I?"

Which is met with an approving chorus of "Dude."

Then what happens?

That's as far as I've gotten.

This is ridiculous.
