415. A Virus, Heartbreak and a World of Possibilities
April 22, 2021Sheldon 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: So no one's gonna say anything for the rest of the night?
Jana: Wouldn't be the first time no one's said anything when the subject of love came up.
Georgie: I said something.
Jana: That doesn't count.
Georgie: Missy, if you said "I love you" to Marcus, and he said "samesies," would you be okay with that?
Missy: Well...
Georgie: And before you answer, remember who agreed to take you on a secret date.
Jana: Don't ask her, she's a kid.
Georgie: She held hands and shared a straw!
Quote from Meemaw
Meemaw: You ready to start dating again?
Brenda Sparks: I think I need some time.
Meemaw: Well, if you change your mind, there's a gentleman over here at the bar who would like us to see his butt crack. [laughs]
Quote from George Sr.
Principal Petersen: Well, I know it's rough, but my old man left when I was around your age. What are you, about 16, 17?
Billy Sparks: I'm 12.
Principal Petersen: Damn.
George: You know, maybe he doesn't want to talk about this.
Coach Wilkins: Sometimes it's good to get stuff off your chest. My man's been through a lot. And we're here for you.
Billy Sparks: Thank you.
Mr. Givens: I'm gonna raise.
Principal Petersen: On the bright side, you could look after your mom now. That's what I did. Made a man out of me.
George: You know, Billy, sometimes these things are for the best.
Coach Wilkins: Why would you say that?
George: My parents had a bad marriage. Honestly, it... it was hard to be around.
Mr. Givens: Full boat, read 'em and weep. Come to papa. Sorry.
Quote from George Jr.
Georgie: Should we just forget it and go home?
Jana: Fine by me.
Missy: Does the backseat get a vote?
Georgie: You put me on the spot. I never said that to anyone before.
Jana: Me neither, and it didn't go well. Samesies.
Georgie: I'm sorry. I'm not even sure what it's supposed to feel like.
Jana: Well, if you felt it, you'd know.
Georgie: I know that I like you. A lot. More than anybody else.
Missy: Aw.
Jana: Really?
Georgie: Yeah.
Missy: By the way, when Marcus is in the car, you can't be this lame.
Quote from Sheldon
David: [on the phone] Okay, so what we're gonna need to do is wipe your hard drive clean and reinstall the operating system.
Sheldon: What about all my files?
David: Do you have everything backed up?
Sheldon: I back up my files every Thursday night. I call it Backup Thursdays. It's not the catchiest, but it sums up the situation.
David: Perfect. After we wipe your drive, you can restore it, and you'll be good as new.
Sheldon: Thank you so much.
David: No problem. So, start by turning the computer off and inserting the DOS disk.
Sheldon: Wait, what if I used the backup disk after the virus was already on the computer?
David: Oh. Uh, then I'm afraid it's corrupted, too.
Sheldon: But how do I get my files?
David: You don't.
Sheldon: But I have all my old papers on there, my parents' taxes.
David: I'm sorry.
Quote from Principal Petersen
Principal Petersen: You ever play football?
Billy Sparks: No, sir.
Principal Petersen: Think about it. I will forge a birth certificate tomorrow.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Dad, something terrible happened.
George: What's the matter?
Sheldon: I lost all the files on my computer.
George: Oh, well, I'm sure you can get 'em back.
Sheldon: I can't, and It's all my fault.
George: All right, calm down.
Sheldon: I can't calm down. This is a disaster.
Billy Sparks: It'll be okay, Sheldon.
Sheldon: You don't understand. They're gone. And they're gone forever. And no matter what I do, they're never coming back, so it won't be okay.
Adult Sheldon: I wish I could tell you I realized the cruel irony of what I had just said to Billy, and apologized. But I didn't.
