Previously on young Sheldon...

Apparently the football boosters
think I'm not doing my job.

You know you're gonna
have to talk to them, right?

- Yes.
- Maybe I should come.

I'm not gonna
insult their children.

You sure?

Okay, come.

- I got a question.
- Go ahead, Roy.

What in the he” were you thinking,
punting with 1:24 on the clock?

- Meeting's over.
- There it is. The Cooper surrender.

- The Cooper surrender.
- Bye-bye.

Guess what. I'm buying a laundromat.

So, there's a secret back room
at the laundromat where you gamble.

Whoo!

Give me a sense for how illegal this is.

Who says it's illegal?

- Why is it a secret?
- Okay, it's illegal.

Today, lthought
we could talk about relationships.

So I have invited
my lovely wife, Amy, to help.

Thanks for letting me join in.

Are youjealous
when I do this without you?

- No.
- Because one of the most

common sources of conflict
in relationships is jealousy.

Now, Amy, did you know
jealousy is triggered

in the left part of the cerebral cortex?

I'm sorry. Are you about
to explain neuroscience to your wife,

the nobel prize-winning neuroscientist?

Yes. Jealous?

I'll tell you when there isn't
a microphone in front of us.

Ooh, mystery.
That'll keep a relationship on its toes.

Your bathroom schedule
is on the refrigerator.

- We have no mystery.
- Moving on.

Physical intimacy.

I believe I said physical intimacy.

Which can pose
another challenge in relationships.

Especially when one partner
doesn't want to be intimate

as frequently as the other.

Ooh, who are we talking about?

You know what. Don't tell me.
Let the mystery continue.

Just read the next one.

Money is a frequent
source of conflict in a relationship.

Thankfully, that's never been
a problem for us.

Says the woman
who took away my comic book allowance.

Uh, to start a college fund
for our children.

Comic books are an investment.

There are better places
to in vest our money

than that weird wolfman you like.

His name is Wolverine,
and you know it.

Okay, we're off on a tangent.
I'm taking over.

Money can be a source of conflict
in a relationship, even having too much.

Wha... Hey, this is my story.

I know. Jealous?

- I need to show you something.
- Okay.

- Now don't freak out.
- That's not helping.

Whoa.

- The gambling room's doing well.
- I can see that, scarface.

But why is it here?

Well, I can't exactly
take it down to the bank.

- Why not?
- They'd bust me for money laundering.

It's small bills.
Tell them you're a stripper.

- It's $14,000.
- Tell them you're a good stripper.

Grandmas love
to spoil their grandchildren,

especially when the grandma
has a suitcase full of cash

she doesn't know what to do with.

- Whoa.
- Oh, my.

Did you mean to give us $10 bills?
Because these are 100s.

I'm gonna kick your ass.

I know it's a lot, but why not
see you enjoy it while I'm still around?

Ooh, there's an inheritance, too?

Well, depends on how you treat me
in my golden years.

I'm not interested
in your money, meemaw.

You're pretty, and I love you.

Now, don't you have
something to say to me?

- Thank you.
- I'm rich.

- Morning.
- Good morning.

So, how are you holding up?

- What does that mean?
- Nothing.

What?

There's no easy way to say this,
so I'm just gonna say it.

I was at a meeting last night
with the boosters.

Without me?

They might have thought
that would be uncomfortable,

seeing as it was about you.

About me how?

Well, they were floating the idea
of me being head coach next year.

What the hell, Wayne?

I didn't know
what it was gonna be about.

- What did you tell them?
- Look, I want you to keep your job.

Well, then tell them
you're not interested.

But if you're not gonna keep your job,
I want your job.

Really? You want to spend
your days coaching lazy kids,

getting yelled at by their parents?

Come on, George.

Don't forget the dirty looks
afleryoulose,

like you're the one
that fumbled on the three-yard line.

- That's the job you want?
- It's called coaching, George.

How could Wayne
stab me in the back like this?

I don't think
Wayne stabbed you in the back.

- Can you please just agree with me?
- Sorry.

So, what happens now?

I don't know.
I guess I wait and see if I'm fired.

Well, if that happens,
you can always get another job.

Medford has one high school.
Anotherjob could mean moving.

But our roots are here. My mom is here.

So, moving's got its upsides.

Didn't Sheldon's college talk to you

about coaching there once?

That's right. They did.

And you know
the president pretty well now.

I do.

And, they're used to losing,
so it's low pressure.

Thank you.

Do you have a calculator I can borrow?

- Yes, but I'm using it.
- No, you're not.

Why do you need a calculator?

I'm trying to figure out
what to spend my money on.

- What are you gonna do with yours?
- I'm glad you asked.

I'm dipping my toe in the exciting world
of the stock market

by purchasing three shares
of radio shack.

Well, as a shareholder, I'll be partial
owner of my very favorite company.

See, when companies go public,
they sell shares...

I'll just buy my own calculator.

Thank you for seeing me,
president hagemeyer.

Of course.
My door is open to all coopers.

Even Alice Cooper,
who I've always found oddly sexy.

Don't think we're related,
but if I meet him,

I'll let him know.

So, what can I do for you?

When you all were
first recruiting Sheldon,

you offered me a chance
to head up your football program.

And you turned us down.

I was right in the middle
of rebuilding medford's team.

But now, I'm ready for a new challenge.

- Well, Mr. Cooper...
- Please, call me coach.

Oh, and it's just occurred to me,
but, uh, if I were here,

I could help keep an eye on Sheldon,
take some of the burden off you.

No.

Your son is no burden.

He's a pain in the ass, ma'am.
You can say it.

- Well, whether he is or he isn't...
- He is.

We don't have a football team anymore.

What? You're a university in Texas.

We are a science-focused university.

- But you got that whole stadium.
- Well, we still have soccer.

Oh, what about Texas a&m?

Pretty sure
they have a football program.

Yeah. If that doesn't work,
maybe I'll try the cowboys.

Hey, reach for the stars.

- George.
- Hey, Dale.

Surprised to see you here.

- Are you?
- Not even a little.

You ever hear of a Texas college
that only plays soccer?

Can I get a beer first

before we start with the hard questions?

Uh, I went to Sheldon's college
for a possible coaching gig.

They don't even have a team anymore.

- Huh. So you're looking for a new job?
- Something like that.

Well, there's plenty of teams out there.

Yeah, but I'm starting to think
it's gonna be the same bs wherever I go.

- That's how I feel about life.
- Wherever I go...

You ever think about
doing something different?

Well, I played football, coach football,
watch a lot of football, so...

- Unless sitting here becomes a job.
- How about selling footballs?

You mean like at your store?

- Yeah. I could always use the help.
- I'm not looking for a handout.

That's not what this is.
I'd love to have more time off,

and it'd be nice to have
someone at the store I could trust.

- Thanks. I'll think about it.
- Don't thank me.

I'm just taking advantage
of your crappy situation.

How do you know
I'm not taking advantage of yours?

Because I'm a very
successful businessman,

and you're sitting here
in the middle of the day.

- You're here, too.
- You were here first.

I'd only been a shareholder for one day,

and I was already reveling
in the giddy thrill

in being part owner
of a thriving tech company.

Hello, radio shack.
Sheldon Cooper, shareholder.

I just want to let you know
I'm so excited to be part of the team.

While I sound young, rest assured,

I'm far more intelligent
than my age would imply.

So if there's anything I can do to help,
budgeting, product design,

finding a word more impressive
than "shack," I'm your man.

My sister had taken
a different path with her money.

- What is that?
- It's a cotton candy machine.

It's a machine
that makes free cotton candy.

It's not free. You paid for it.

Meemaw paid for it.
It's still better than lame stocks.

You're going to end up
with a stomachache,

while I get to be part ofamerica's
favorite electronics retailer.

Really? George is
gonna work at your store?

He's gonna give it a try at nights
and weekends, see if he likes it.

- Huh. And what if he does?
- Hopefully I can start stepping back.

To do what?

Well, I've got money in the bank
and you got some in the suitcase.

We could put it together,
we could travel,

we could buy a vacation home.

I can't just up and leave.
I mean, I got the gambling room.

Georgie can take care of that.

Besides, what's the use of having
all that money and not enjoying it?

I guess.

God, we could go to Mexico,
get a cabana, spend days on the beach.

And our nights on the toilet?

Yeah, doesn't sound half bad.

What's up?

I figured out you can put all kinds
of candy in the machine.

- Try this.
- Why is it brown?

It's butterscotch
from meemaw's candy bowl.

- I think that candy's older than you.
- Doesn't taste like it.

- Notbad.
- I'm gonna bring a bunch to school.

- How much are you gonna charge for it?
- Nothing. They're my friends.

Do you think Ronald McDonald
let his friends eat for free?

Ronald McDonald isn't real.

The point is,
you shouldn't give this away for free.

- How much would I even charge?
- Hmm. How about 50 cents?

They only cost me,
like, two cents to make.

Yeah, but you're not
factoring in your time

and the cost of the machine you bought,

and the value of the brainpower it took
to think of butterscotch cotton candy.

Yeah.

No one else thought of putting old lady
candy in a cotton candy machine.

- Why should they get it for free?
- Welcome to business.

Thank you for having me.

While my sister
was starting her business,

I was trying to save mine.

Hello. This is Sheldon Cooper.
May I speak to ceo John roach, please?

It's regarding our stock
taking a small dip,

and I'd like to hear his game plan.

Well, I'm busy, too,
but I made the time to call.

Fine.
May I please speak to your coo?

Cfo? CTO?

Hello?

These are great shoes, but at his age,
he's gonna grow out of them

before you hit the parking lot.

These are just as good,

And they're gonna
save you a little money.

Thank you.

Take them up to the counter.
I'll be right there to ring them up.

George, you realize
you're on commission, don't you?

You know what
you never grow out of? Socks.

I'm gonna grab you some socks.

- How about some wristbands?
- Hey.

- What are you doing here?
- I came to take you to dinner.

- Really? I'll grab my keys.
- No need. I'll drive tonight.

But you might want to grab a jacket.

You actually bought this thing?

- It's fun, huh?
- I feel like I'm riding in a banana.

Oh, come on. It's a beautiful day.
The top is down.

- Feel that wind.
- Yeah, I feel the wind.

- I just can't feel my feet.
- Put your seat back.

If I put it any further back,
I'd be in the trunk.

I'm starting to wish
I had put you in the trunk.

What are you doing now?

Keeping the bugs out of my mouth.

Mom, savor this moment.
Can you take me to church?

Um, I'm a little busy. Can it wait?

No. I've come up with a plan

to bolster radio shack's market share,
and I need to fax it to corporate.

I'll tell you what. I'll take it with me
in the morning and do it then.

But our stock is in a slump
and compusa is nipping at our heels.

If you really want to be helpful,
you could set the table.

Why should I help you with your job
if you won't help me with mine?

- Sheldon...
- This is important.

My plan is to turn radio shack

into a shopping destination,
a megastore,

complete with restaurants
and games and electronics.

Kind of like six flags,
except with less screaming and vomit.

I'm not taking you.

How can I be a business tycoon
if my mommy won't drive me places?

- George?
- Roy.

- You work here now?
- Yeah, just nights and weekends.

Since you and the boosters
are gunning for my neck.

Hey, it's nothing personal.

Good to know. I'll be sure to tell
the bank that has my mortgage.

How many losing seasons are we supposed
to put up with before we make a change?

Frankly, I'm surprised
you lasted this long.

- You're lucky I'm working right now.
- I ain't here to cause trouble.

- Something I can help you with?
- Just a little fishing tackle.

Follow me.

You want to share
a pitcher of margaritas?

Ooh, something we can both enjoy?
That doesn't sound like you.

- I'm sorry. What?
- Don't worry about it.

You're just gonna sit there
and pout and not tell me?

I was talking
about us traveling together,

and instead you went out
and bought a yellow clown car.

You're the one who told me to go out
and have fun with my money.

I meant something fun for us.

- Why "us"? It's my money.
- You made that perfectly clear.

- It's just a car.
- It's not just a car.

- I think you got scared.
- Scared of what?

I was talking about our future,
and you panicked.

I think I've got a successful business

and my own money,
and you can't handle it.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah, really.

What can I get started for you?

- Actually, I think we're leaving.
- I'm not going anywhere.

I'll have the enchiladas.

So I said 70 cents for one
or two for a dollar,

and everyone bought two.

- People love a deal.
- I know. I sold out.

- Then you've got to start charging more.
- How much more?

Just raise the price a little at a time
until you see your profits top out.

I'm learning, but it's fun.
This is weird.

What do you mean, he hasn't read my fax?
Is he aware I'm a shareholder?

Well, where's the next
shareholders' meeting?

Fort worth? I could barely
get my mom to drive me to church.

Think they'd pay a dollar apiece?

Sure. Just tell them
it's a special limited edition.

People go nuts for that.

- Like the shamrock shake.
- Exactly.

Every year, I'm like,
"this tastes like toothpaste."

But every year I buy it.

Well, I'll just tell you, then.
Imagine an electronics megastore.

Actually, mega doesn't cut it.
Imagine an electronics yotta store.

Yotta. It's ten to the 24th power.
No, don't put me on hold.

- Hello.
- Hey.

So you weren't returning my calls.

It's been kind of crazy
around here today.

Mm-hmm.

So I was thinking about
what you were saying last night.

You know, you could've just said,
"I don't want to travel."

You're picturing a future
where we slow down,

and I'm just getting going.

I've been going for 40 years.

When George started talking about
taking over the store, I saw a way out.

Then do it.

I don't want to do it
without you, dummy.

Well, then you're gonna
have to wait a little.

I don't think I can do that.

What are you saying?

- You know I love you, right?
- I love you, too.

But we're done.

My mother would say
money is the root of all evil,

but she also said that
about the Simpsons.

I say money
is just a medium of exchange,

a way of transforming something
into something else.

My meemaw bought a sports car

and transformed a relationship
in the process.

My sister transformed her money
into a thriving business

that was eventually shut down
due to an infestation.

And for a brief moment,
I became part of my dream company.

Fun fact. Later that year,

radio shack did open a megastore
called incredible universe.

It turned out the only thing incredible
about it was how quickly it closed down.

Oopsie.
