Episode Quotes
(Sheldon runs towards Penny's bathroom door and is about to do his classic doorknock.)
Penny: Don't you dare knock!

Sheldon: (to Penny) It does seem rather ironic that for want of 99 cent adhesive ducks we both might die in a fiery car crash.

Penny: Okay, you gotta help me get my arm into the sleeve.
Sheldon: Um, 'kay.
Penny: Is that my arm?
Sheldon: It doesn't feel like an arm.
Penny: Then maybe you should let it go.
Sheldon: All righty.
