Take him down! He's got you, sheldon.

Look at this move! He's completely schooling you.

Hey, guys. guys.

Some of the other waitresses wanted me to ask you something.

It's called Tresling. It combines the physical strength of arm wrestling

with the mental agility of Tetris into the ultimate spots.

Yeah, that's terrific.

but they wanted me to ask you to cut it the hell out.

Great. Come here, guys. Come on.

Happy birthday to you.

We might as well stop. It's a stalemate. You're beating me in Tetris,

but you've got the upper body strength of a Keebler elf.

Keebler elf? I've got your Keebler elf right here.

Okay, it's a stalemate.

So, leonard, will we be seeing you

on saturday for your free birthday cheesecake?

He can't eat cheesecake.

He's lactose intolerant.

Okay, he can have carrot cake.

What about the cream cheese frosting?

He can scrape it off.

Forget about the cake.

How do you know that my birthday's saturday?

I did your horoscope, remember?

I was going to do everybody's,

Until sheldon went on one of his typical psychotic rants.

For the record,

"that psychotic rant" was a concise summation

Of the research of bertram forer, who in 1948,

Proved conclusively through meticulously designed

Experiments that astrology is nothing

but pseudo-scientific hokum.

Blah, blah, blah. typical taurus.

So, seriously. are we going to see you saturday?

Uh, I don't inink so. why not?

I don't celebrate my birthday.

Shut up. yeah, you do.

It's no big deal; it's just the way I was raised.

My parents focused on celebrating achievements,

And being expelled from a birth canal

was not considered one of them.

That's so silly.

It's actually based on very sound theories.

His mother published a paper on it.

Well, what was it called?

"i hate my son and that's why he can't have cake"?

It was obviously effective.

Leonard grew up to be an experimental physicist.

Perhaps if she'd also denied him christmas,

he'd be a little better at it.

Thank you.

Well, I love birthdays.

Waking up to mom's special french toast breakfast,

Wearing the birthday king crown,

playing laser tag with all my friends...

Yeah, see?

That's what kids should have.

Actually, that was last year.

So you really never had a birthday party?

No, but it was okay.

I mean, when I was little,

I'd think maybe my parents would change

Their mind and surprise me with a party.

Like this one birthday I came home from my cello

Lesson and I saw a lot of strange cars parked out front.

When I got to the door,

I could hear people whispering

and I could smell german chocolate cake,

Which is my favorite.

And?

It turns out my grandfather had died.

Oh, my god. that's terrible.

Well, it was kind of like a birthday party.

I got to see all my cousins, and there was cake, so...

That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.

You think?

Go ahead, tell her about your senior prom.


The.Peanut.Reaction

Make sure they remember-- no peanuts.

Howard, every thai restaurant in town

knows you can't eat peanuts.

When they see me coming, they go, "ah, no-peanut boy!"

Hello, penny.

Leonard just left.

I know. I want to talk to you.

What would we talk about?

We have no overlapping areas of interest I'm aware of.

As you know, I don't care for chitchat.

Can you just let me in?

Well, all right, but I don't see this as a promising endeavor.

Okay, here's the deal.

We are going to throw leonard a kick-ass

Surprise party for his birthday on saturday.

I hardly think so.

Leonard made it very clear he doesn't want a party.

Did someone say... "party"?

He just doesn't know he wants one'cause he's never had one.

I suppose that's possible, but for the record,

I've never had a threesome and yet I still know I want one.

Howard,

Here's the difference-- the possibility exists that

Leonard could have a birthday party before hell freezes over.

Fine. if I do have a threesome, you can't be part of it.

I'm just kidding. yes, you can.

Can you bring a friend.

I think a birthday party's a terrible idea.

I envy leonard for growing up without that anguish.

Anguish?!

Year after year,

I had to endure wearing comical hats while being

Forced into the crowded, sweaty hell of bouncy castles.
