    609. College Dropouts and the Medford Miracle

    January 5, 2023

    Sheldon is told he will need to drop out of college to get private funding for his database. Meanwhile, George is annoyed when Pastor Rob gets credit for the football team's victory.

Quote from Principal Petersen

Principal Petersen: 'Cause I have a bet with the Jasper principal and I really don't want to wear a pink cowboy hat to the next pep rally.
George: [chuckles] I gotta be honest, it'd be going better if Pastor Rob would stay in his lane.
Principal Petersen: Well, I thought the kids liked having him around.
George: Yeah, 'cause he's filling their heads with junk like they should be treated nice and not get yelled at.
Principal Petersen: Oh. Well, he's one of those, huh?
George: [chuckles] Yeah. So I can get rid of him?
Principal Petersen: Hell no. We just beat Pineview by 28 points. You telling me God didn't have anything to do with that?
George: Well, I think I deserve a little credit.
Principal Petersen: Fine, good job. Mustache boy stays.

Quote from Principal Petersen

Principal Petersen: George, you don't mess with a winning streak.
George: So as long as we're winning I'm stuck with this guy?
Principal Petersen: That's right.
George: What if we lose?
Principal Petersen: Then you're gonna get murdered by a guy wearing a pink cowboy hat.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Dad, I have a question for you.
George: [sighs] Not a good time, Sheldon.
Sheldon: Please, it's really important.
George: Whatever it is, fine.
Sheldon: Mom, Dad said I could drop out of college!
George: What?
Mary: [o.s.] George!

Quote from Missy

Missy: [answers phone] Hello?
Dean: Hey, Missy, it's Dean.
Missy: Oh, hi... Hey, I mean... Hi.
Dean: It was, uh, fun hanging out with you the other night. I thought maybe we could do it again.
Missy: Totally. We could go to the mall. Or we could go mini-golfing.
Dean: I was thinking maybe we could hang out with your grandma again.
Missy: And do what?
Dean: I don't know, uh, we could play a board game, or... Oh, my grandma loved to bake cookies with me.
Missy: I guess that could be fun.
Dean: Great. It's a date.
Missy: Right. You and me.
Dean: At your meemaw's. Can't wait. Bye.

Quote from Sheldon

Gary: Thank you so much for bringing this opportunity to me. This is exciting.
Sheldon: So will you give us the funding?
Gary: Well, it's a lot of money, but my horoscope did say take a chance today.
Dr. John Sturgis: You're, uh, making a big financial decision based on astrology?
Gary: I know, I'm such a Gemini, right?
Sheldon: That's ridiculous. The alignment of the planets and stars has no correlation to your success or failure.
Gary: Ah, this is great. I mean, science thrives on this kind of debate.
Sheldon: This isn't a debate.
Gary: Rebuttal: Yes, it is. There we go again. [chuckles]

Quote from Sheldon

Gary: Oh, I gotta tell ya, making lab furniture has made me rich, but this, this is what I really love.
Dr. John Sturgis: Now, just to be clear, we're looking for a financier, not a partner.
Gary: Oh, yes, no, this is your baby. You guys are the parents, I'm just a wet nurse. Just a wealthy, wealthy wet nurse.
Dr. John Sturgis: What does that mean?
Sheldon: A wet nurse is a woman who suckles another...
Dr. John Sturgis: No, no, I know what it means, I just meant what does he mean?
Gary: Well, I mean I just want to be around the process. Anything you need, I'm your guy.
Sheldon: But I'm still in charge, right?
Gary: Did NASA fake the moon landing?
Sheldon: No.
Gary: See, that's what I thought until about a year ago. Oh, we're gonna have so much fun.

Quote from George Sr.

George: You got something to say, let's hear it.
Pastor Rob: I just don't think they're gonna expect you to go for it. You fake a field goal, you might catch 'em off guard.
Coach Wilkins: Actually, Pastor Rob, at this level that kind of play never...
George: Hang on, Wayne. Rob got us a win last week all on his own. Who are we to say no?
Coach Wilkins: Are you sure?
George: Yeah, I'm sure. What's the worst that could happen?
Coach Wilkins: We could lose.
George: Yep. And who would we blame?

Quote from George Sr.

George: [to Pastor Rob] I don't want to tell you how to do your job, but if I was a prayin' man, I'd start now.

Quote from George Sr.

Principal Petersen: George, you crazy son-of-a-bitch, I can't believe you pulled that off!
George: Me, neither.
Pastor Rob: Looks like we make a pretty good team, George.
[As Pastor Rob celebrates with the team, a glum George stands still. Two players walk up and dump a container of sports drink over George.]

Quote from Missy

Missy: Hey, Dean, want to help me roll out the dough?
Dean: Yeah, one second, I'm just helping Grandma grease the pan.
Meemaw: Who?
Dean: Oh, uh, sorry. You just remind me of my grandma.
Meemaw: I tell you what, why don't you help Missy, and I'm gonna start the dishes.
Dean: Oh, uh, while the cookies are baking, maybe you could teach me how to play gin rummy.
Missy: All right, we're done here.
Dean: What?
Missy: You heard me.
Dean: Are you breaking up with me?
Missy: Yeah. You can go now.
Dean: But my mom's not picking me up till 7:00.
Meemaw: Oh, I'll get the cards. [Missy sighs]
