The Bat Jar Conjecture - S1-E13
Question: The PMS team won a trophy for beating Sheldon's team, but at the beginning of the match, Dr. Gablehauser said it was a preliminary match. Would they really get a trophy for winning a preliminary game?
Question: Why did Althea refuse to believe Leonard when he said that Howard was having an allergic reaction only believing it when she saw it for herself?
Answer: Because prior to this, Howard was exhibiting no symptoms of a severe allergic reaction, and she was tired of them wasting her time. However, unbeknownst to her, Howard had in fact taken a bite of a peanut bar (having only faked doing so before, to distract Leonard), so when she sees his genuine reaction, she believes it.
The Luminous Fish Effect - S1-E4
Question: Did the gang meet Mary before this episode? Because Leonard knew to call her but it seems like none of them ever met her before.
Chosen answer: It's unlikely that they ever met, which would mean Mary visited. However, the show seems to imply Leonard has had to call her in the past to help out with Sheldon, and he has her number. Plus, Mary seems to be more motherly (then say Beverly) and one can assume she's called Sheldon a number of times to check in on him and it's likely Leonard answered the phone some of those times and spoke to her. Given that Leonard often shares personal stories with the gang, it's also likely he's told the gang something about Mary.
Question: Is it out of character for Sheldon to be willing to donate sperm just for money considering that he has no interest in sex?
Chosen answer: Sheldon believes himself to be superior to all other humans and therefore his lack of desire for sex is only superseded by his desire to create a superior sub-species of human. This concept is also seen later in the series when he and Amy consider having a baby together to make a super smart child (by invitro of course).
Good answer. It also happens when Missy talks to Sheldon and he mentions something about storing eggs and finding the perfect donor.
Answer: She doesn't believe him because when Howard arrives he tells the nurse that he is faking it, and just asks for a band aid to say he had a shot.
