607. A Tougher Nut and a Note on File
November 10, 2022After Missy sells a comic book which Sheldon was desperate to obtain, he has the idea of a searchable database of comic book inventory. Meanwhile, Georgie and Mandy unexpectedly run into her parents, Jim and Audrey.
Quote from Sheldon
Missy: Aren't we here to type stuff into the computer?
Sheldon: There's no reason we can't do both.
Missy: It's gonna take forever.
Sheldon: We could use some help.
[cut to:]
Nathan: A comic book store after hours. It's a dream come true.
Sheldon: And we get to organize it.
Missy: We don't have to.
Sheldon: Don't listen to her, she doesn't appreciate the dream.
Quote from George Sr.
Mary: What can we help you with?
Jim: Oh, well, uh, I got some money here, and I was just hoping y'all could give it to Mandy.
Mary: She's just right across the street at my mom's. You could give it to her yourself.
Jim: Oh, no, I couldn't do that and stay married.
George: Sounds like we got the same wife.
Mary: George.
George: [laughs] Just trying to lighten the mood, honey. I-I'll make sure she gets it.
Jim: Thank you.
Mary: I'm sure your wife will come around eventually.
Jim: Well, I'm hoping that when she sees the baby, that ice cube in her chest might start to melt.
George: Yep, same wife. Come on, it's funny.
Quote from Sheldon
Nathan: So, you can just type in whatever comic you're looking for, and the computer will tell you who has it?
Sheldon: Once enough people enter their inventories in the database, yes.
Nathan: That's really cool.
Sheldon: Would you say it's revolutionary?
Nathan: I would.
Sheldon: Will you?
Nathan: It's revolutionary.
Sheldon: Thanks.
Quote from Nathan
Nathan: Could it be used to catalog other things?
Sheldon: Yes, the applications are endless.
Nathan: So there could be a database of, I don't know, available women?
Sheldon: Available for what?
Nathan: At this point, anything.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Ooh, there could be ones for scientific grants.
Nathan: Yeah, or my idea.
Sheldon: Finding grants is such a time-consuming process. If there was a centralized database, it would change the research landscape entirely.
Nathan: Yeah, that's cool, I guess.
Sheldon: And many grants never get applied for because people don't know about them, so this would be good for the grantor and the grantee.
Nathan: Well, shouldn't we finish this first?
Sheldon: This idea is too big to wait. I got to go. Will you lock up? [door bells jingle]
Nathan: I'm gonna steal so much stuff.
Quote from Mandy
Mandy: What?
Georgie: I was wrong, go ahead and yell at me.
Mandy: It's not up to you. I decide when I'm gonna yell.
Georgie: Okay, which way you leaning?
Mandy: [yells] What the hell is wrong with you? You went to his store?
