    Sheldon is caught in a moral dilemma when offered a bootleg copy of a computer game he can't afford. Also, Mary and Meemaw take Brenda out for girls' night while George Sr. and the guys watch Billy, and Missy asks Georgie to take her and Marcus on a secret date.

Quote from George Jr.

Missy: Think you could drop me off at the movies Saturday night?
Georgie: I'm seeing Jana. Can't Mom do it?
Missy: Mom's going out. And I kind of want to go with Marcus.
Georgie: Ah. So you're trying to go on a secret date.
Missy: Kind of.
Georgie: I don't know how I feel about this.
Missy: Come on, it's just a movie.
Georgie: Have you been out with him before?
Missy: Never alone.
Georgie: How old is this boy?
Missy: Thirteen.
Georgie: Do his parents know about it?
Missy: What are you, Mom now?
Georgie: You're my sister. You and boys is weird.
Missy: Will you take me or not?
Georgie: Fine.
Missy: Thank you, thank you, thank you! [hugs Georgie]
Georgie: You best not be hugging him like this, or that date's gonna be over real quick.

Quote from Meemaw

Meemaw: It's nice you're taking Brenda out.
Mary: I'm glad someone thinks I can be fun.
Meemaw: Who said fun? I said "nice."
Meemaw: Okay, well, if you're so fun, where would you go?
Meemaw: It's not rocket science. She just wants to go out to a bar and have some laughs.
Mary: I can do that.
Meemaw: You don't sound too sure.
Mary: It's been a while, but there's no reason...
Meemaw: You want me to come?
Mary: I'll pay for all your drinks.
Meemaw: You gonna regret that. [chuckles]

Quote from Adult Sheldon

Adult Sheldon: I was so wrapped up in my game I didn't even know where Tam went.
Tam: [sings along with TV] ♪ The things you say ♪ ♪ Mm, you're unbelievable, oh... ♪
Adult Sheldon: But I didn't care, because I was building my locomotive empire. Little did I know, as I was spreading tracks across North America, a computer virus was spreading itself across my hard drive. Next stop: Infection City.
♪ You're unbelievable... ♪

Quote from George Sr.

Mary: I'm leaving soon. How do I look?
George: Good, actually.
Mary: Well, you don't have to sound surprised.
George: Well, it's nice you want to look good for Brenda Sparks.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Right now, I'm about to take out a loan so I can build the first railroad line between the Atlantic and the Pacific.
Billy Sparks: Cool. What do I do?
Sheldon: You watch me take out a loan so I can build the first railroad line between the Atlantic and the Pacific.
Billy Sparks: Don't you have a game that two people can play?
Sheldon: I do, but not one that lets you take out a loan so you can build the first railroad line between the Atlantic and the Pacific.

Quote from George Jr.

Georgie: So what movie we seeing?
Missy: What do you mean "we"?
Georgie: You think I'm letting you go to the movies alone with him?
Missy: What do you think's gonna happen?
Georgie: Nothing's gonna happen, 'cause I'm gonna be there. [Missy groans] Relax, I'm not gonna sit with you. I'll be in the back.
Missy: But you'll be watching me?

Mary: Here we go.
Brenda Sparks: Is that three beers I see?
Mary: It's girls' night out and I said I was gonna show you a good time.
Meemaw: All right, then, party girl, give us a toast.
Mary: Oh, um, well, uh... Bless these beers and the bartender who poured them.
Meemaw: Seriously?
Mary: I thought it was good.

Quote from Meemaw

Brenda Sparks: I-I'll handle this. To friends.
Meemaw: [laughs] And to Brenda's crap husband who made this night possible.
Mary: Mom.
Meemaw: It's okay, she said we could joke about it.

George: A serving bowl?
Principal Petersen: I didn't realize we were playing poker with Martha Stewart. [Mr. Givens laughs]
Coach Wilkins: I will make civilized men of y'all if it kills me.
Mr. Givens: I was just laughing 'cause he's my boss.
George: I'll get you a bowl.

Quote from Adult Sheldon

Man: [on the phone] Hello, you've reached the Tandy Tech Support Hotline.

Quote from Billy Sparks

George: Do you know anything about poker?
Billy Sparks: No.

Quote from Sheldon

David: [answers phone] Tandy Tech Support. This is David. How can I help you?
Sheldon: Hello, I'm having a problem with my Tandy 1000SL.
David: What's going on?
Sheldon: I think I have a computer virus.
David: [chuckles] Well, let's not jump there yet. Could be lots of things. What did you see?
Sheldon: Pixels started disappearing, and then a message read: "DISK DESTROYER - Your hard drive is now corrupted."
David: Yeah, that's a virus.
Sheldon: Oh, dear.
David: Have you used any unlicensed software lately?
Sheldon: Um... I'm not sure I should answer that without consulting an attorney first.
David: Hey, hey, I get it. I play a lot of games, not always officially purchased. I'm just here to help get your computer up and running.
Sheldon: Thank you for understanding, David. I'm not usually a rule-breaker, but it was Railroad Kingdom and I really wanted it because I love trains. And it was $49.95. My mom said it was too expensive. And I was going to buy it eventually, and Tam said that was good enough, so I got a bootleg copy, and now I have a virus, which I very much deserve.
David: I'm sorry, who's Tam?
