I never cared for The Game of Life.

Marriage, children, careers, houses.

What kind of life is that?

In my game, the milestones are...

papers published, degrees earned,

Nobel Prizes won.

And in my version, I am dominating.

But you knew that.

Ooh, and instead of cars,

you'd ride around in a train.

Honestly, why aren't they making this?

- Yes!
- Hello, Sam.

You seem agitated.

I just got accepted into
my summer program.

Oh, summer school. I didn't
realize you were struggling.

- But way to not give up.
- No. It's at Columbia.

This is gonna look really good
on my grad school application.

Grad school? Those applications
are a year away.

You have to start early.

It's so competitive these days.

I think I'll be fine.

Where are you hoping to go?

Caltech.

Sheldon, that's one of
the toughest programs

to get into in the world.

I know, they deserve the best.

Well, if I were you, I would start
building up my résumé now.

Uh, my résumé's pretty good.

4.0, child prodigy.

Beloved wherever I go.

Are you on any published papers?

No.

Have you presented at any conferences?

- No.
- Have you been involved

in any outside projects?

I did develop a grant research database.

Oh, well that's something.

It failed spectacularly.

Well, hey... at least you're beloved.

Now I hope y'all enjoyed
those sunny skies.

Because we have some
weather headed our way...

Want some?

No, I'm good.

- You sure?
- Yeah,

I slept almost four hours last night.

- I feel like a tiger.
- Good for you.

Brushed my hair, I brushed my teeth,

I may even go outside today.

Wow, an 80% chance of rain.

Never mind.

Probably from all these
clouds over here...

Who is this guy?

Where's perky Heather
with today's weather?

I don't know, I think the
sports guy's filling in.

This storm is just gonna
make a full-court press.

And just run right on past Houston,

right on past Lufkin,

all the way over to Medford over here...

He ain't even pointin' at Medford.

That's a drive that Jack Nicklaus
would be proud of right there.

I used to do that job, you know.

It's not as easy as you'd think.

You got to look forward,

but point backward
while reading the script.

All with sunshine in your voice.

I could actually hear the sunshine

- in your voice.
- Thanks.

Now back to CeeCee in the nursery

with screaming.

And that's the weather.

You're late.

Sorry, I ran into Sam.

Bright girl. She's going places.

Specifically the physics
department at Columbia.

- Oh, she got in, fantastic.
- Mm-hmm.

I know she was hoping to
spice up her applications.

Well, I like to think
that I'm all the spice

my applications will need.

You're not.

- What are you saying?
- Actually, uh...

Hold on, should I be trying to beef up

my grad school applications?

The competition is fierce.
It takes a lot to stand out.

You're my advisors, why
didn't you advise me of this?

Sheldon, if I could
offer you some advice...

No thank you.

Sheldon, I have a
recommendation for you.

I have one for you. Trim your nose hair.

Do you remember that?

I do. It looked like a spider
was living up there.

Hey.

Hey. What are you doing here?

Oh, just looking through
some of my old videotapes.

Oh, cool.

Wait, you didn't find any
of my tapes, did you?

- What are your tapes?
- Nothing.

Well, mine are from when
I was a weather girl.

Whatcha need 'em for?

Well, the local station's looking.
I'm gonna apply.

But you're a mom now.

Yeah, so?

Well, I'm just sayin'
don't you kind of have

your hands full with CeeCee?

Well, there's a lot of
family around to help.

Well, I know, but...

And I was always gonna go back to work.

If it's about money, we're good.

You live in a garage.

It ain't a garage if
there ain't a car in it.

Yeah, it is.

And it's not about money,
it's about my life.

I want a career.

Well, I-I happen to think
motherhood is a career.

Hmm.

What about fatherhood?

You have a job.

- That's different.
- Why?

Because.

There's lots of reasons.

Oh, okay, so you just get
to have a job and a life,

and I have to stay home with the baby?

Or I have to have a job

and you get to stay home with the baby.

It's all about perspective.

Yes, is this the Columbia summer
science honors program?

Excellent. My name is Sheldon Cooper,

perhaps you've heard of me.

Well, now you have.

Anyways, it's recently
come to my attention

that you could be an important
step in my career advancement.

So, good news, I'm available.

Yes, I understand I've
missed the deadline,

but I'm sure you can make an exception.

But I'm Sheldon Cooper.

And apparently Doctors Linkletter
and Sturgis were aware

that I already should have been
focusing on my applications.

And they didn't say anything to you?

Well, they did, but I don't
come off well in that story.

Shelly, how bad could it be?

You started college when you were 11.

Well, it was impressive
when I was little and cute.

But now that I'm old and cute,
it's just not the same thing.

Well, just 'cause you look older,

doesn't mean you're any less special.

Of course. It's your fault.

What?

Well, you've been saying
I'm special my whole life,

so now I'm conditioned to
expect the world to cater to me

instead of taking initiative.

But you are special, sweetie.

You just can't turn it off, can you?

She's changed and napping.

You washed your hands, right?

Shelly, you want some mashed potatoes?

See, there you go again,

bringing the mashed potatoes to me

when I should be going
to the mashed potatoes.

Fine.

What's goin' on?

Years of coddling have
made me complacent,

and now it may cost me my chance

to get into grad school at Caltech.

I've been sayin' that
since you were born.

And yet you did nothing to stop her?

If it helps, I always
thought you sucked.

Missy.

I talked to Meemaw.

She said if you come back
to work at the video store,

you can bring the baby.

What? I thought you wanted a job.

No, I said I wanted a career.

Oh, are you thinkin' about
going back to work already?

Yeah.

I mean, it's a little
earlier than I thought,

but an opportunity came
up and I'm going for it.

See? Initiative.

Her parents kicked her out,
and look at that gumption.

So what job you goin' for?

Channel 7's looking
for a new weather girl.

Oh, yeah, she said she quit

because she was getting married.

Rumor is she got knocked up.

Which is exciting.

The interview's on Thursday.

What? You already applied?

I thought we were gonna talk about it.

We did talk about it. I said
I was gonna send in a tape

and then I sent it in.

Who's gonna watch CeeCee?

Well, I was hoping her
family would help out.

Of course.

I mean, I do work.

I work, too, George.

We work.

They got a point.

Uh, is the point that your
mom is a working mother?

Well, I didn't work when
my kids were babies.

That's true, she was a
stay-at-home coddler.

Okay, now you're being obnoxious.

No one wants to hear you talk, ass face.

Thanks, I appreciate the help,
but let's keep it clean.

Butt wad?

Better.

Well, that's a look.

That's also a look.

I can't find anything to
wear for my interview.

Well, let's see.

Hmm.

That's pretty cute.

"Can't find" was code
for "can't fit into."

Don't be so hard on yourself, honey.

You just had a baby.

I'll make sure to tell them that.

Apparently everyone
loves a working mother.

Is that code for something?

Yeah, your family sucks.

Ooh, sounds like I missed a good dinner.

Am I a bad mom because I want a career?

Hell no! And you're
teachin' your daughter

that she can grow up to do
something more than raise kids.

Yeah!

And you're gonna go in there
and you're gonna get this job.

- Yeah!
- But not in that.

Yeah.

- I'm waitin'.
- For what?

The "I told you so."

'Cause I coddled Sheldon and
apparently ruined his life.

Oh.

I'm not gonna say that.

I mean, you did coddle
him and I did tell ya...

All right, I told you so.

Thanks for not sayin' it.

Well, what does he know?
He's just a dumb teenager.

I guess it is normal for teenagers

to blame their parents for stuff.

Sheldon's normal. That's a shocker.

Great, the one normal thing he does

is blame me.

Someday his kids are gonna tell
him he's ruinin' their lives.

You think?

If he has 'em, they're gonna say it.

So probably not.

Joke's on him. I did have kids.

And joke's on me.

They say it all the time.

Good morning.

Oh, you're out and about early.

Yeah, got a lot going on today.

Connie's taking me out shopping
and then to the salon

to get ready for my interview.

Nice. A little mommy-daughter day?

Daddy-daughter day. Here ya go.

I have work.

Well, I like to think fatherhood
is a full-time job.

How am I gonna feed her?

I don't have the... you know.

Formula's in the bag.

Tag, you're it. Bye, CeeCee.

Well, looks like it's just me and you.

Let me give you the tour.

That's Axl Rose.

He's awesome.

That's the weight bench.

That's where Daddy gets ripped. Yeah.

And that's the sink your
mom totally peed in once.

It's true. I know, it's true.

Ooh, Volvo... safe and flashy.

- Like me.
- Sheldon...

I haven't had my coffee yet.

I thought you might say that.

Thank you.

I'm not a coffee drinker.
I hope you like seven sugars.

So what's so important
it got you outside?

I had an idea that I think
might be beneficial

to both the university and me.

An exclusive summer program

led by a prestigious
scientist of my choosing.

I've got an idea.

Apply to a school that already has it,

get in, and go there.

Well, to be honest,

with my current résumé,
I may not get in anywhere,

which is why we need
a program like this.

Sheldon, we don't have
the time or the resources

to create a brand-new summer program.

Oh, that's just sleepy talk.

Take a few more sips,
let that sugar kick in.

The answer is no.

I knew I should have put
whiskey in that coffee.

Whose baby?

Mine.

And you brought her to a gambling room?

Why not? There's flashin'
lights and fun noises.

It's basically Chuck E. Cheese.

Can I touch her head for luck?

- No.
- Come on, I just washed my hands.

Make it quick.

Come on, baby.

Uncle Wade needs a win.

All right, that's enough.

That's what I'm talkin' about!

I told you babies is good luck.

Can I touch her head, too?

All right, no one else is
touchin' my baby's head...

for free.

- How much?
- Five bucks.

- Worth it.
- Sold.

Hey, dummy. We need to talk.

If it's about CeeCee being
here, I can explain.

Where is she?

Right here.

Really?

It's fine. He's got, like, 15 grandkids.

We'll get back to that.

I have spent my day listening
to Mandy bitch about you.

Well, I don't suppose
you stuck up for me?

No. If you really want
to be with that girl,

you will not be the one
to stand in her way.

I'm not trying to.

I just want to do
what's best for CeeCee.

Obviously.

Don't you think she deserves
a mom who's home with her?

I think she deserves a mom who's happy

and supported by her dad.

Huh.

Why is that woman touchin' her head?

I'll handle it. Hey!
You got to pay for that.

Come on, Cooper.

See? He's been here since this morning.

He won't leave.

- What do you want me to do?
- Get him to leave.

Oh, good, you're both here.

This will go faster with three of us.

Now, do it! Give him the boot.

Trying to solve unified field theory?

Yes. Who needs a summer
program if you can solve

what Albert Einstein couldn't.

Let's see Caltech say no to this.

Sheldon, you're not gonna solve this

- in an afternoon.
- Or ever.

Well, I need to do
something to stand out.

I think you're putting too much pressure

on this summer program.

You can apply next year.

I can't wait a whole nother year.

I'll fall even further behind.

And then when I'm applying to Columbia,

Sam will be using her
letter of recommendation

to get into Caltech, and then
when I apply to Caltech,

they'll say, "Oh, you're
from East Texas Tech, too.

"Well, you must know Sam, she's
been here a year longer than you

and you'll never catch up."

I think you need to calm down.

I can't calm down. I have
to keep pushing myself

or I'll fall farther and
farther behind until I'm a...

aging professor in a small university

with nothing to show for my work.

Ouch, I think he's talking about you.

- I think he's talking about us.
- No.

I'm wasting too much
time sleeping at night.

In fact, where's the coffee machine?

Perhaps it is time I start
chasing the caffeine dragon.

- Sheldon, listen to us.
- Why should I?

You let this happen to me.

You failed as my mentors.

What are you doing?!

You're still the student,
this is still my office,

and it's time for you to leave.

I'm afraid he's right.

There she is.

Hi!

Um, why does she smell like smoke?

Oh, she hung out with me
in the gambling room.

- What?
- She was a hit.

Everybody said she was good luck.

Okay, so I-I guess it went well?

It did.

So, if you get that job,

I'm all for it.

Okay, good.

What's wrong?

Today was the longest
I've been away from her,

and it was awful.

So you don't want the job?

I-I don't know.

I think you should give it a shot.

- Really?
- Well, you were all excited about it.

And if you get the job,
you can still say no.

Yeah, that's a good point.

I'd love to see you on TV.

Aw.

Then I can say I slept
with that girl on TV.

Okay, well...

♪ Raindrops are falling on my head ♪

♪ And just like the guy ♪

♪ Whose feet are too big for his bed ♪

♪ Nothing seems to fit ♪

♪ Those raindrops... ♪

Why are you listening to this?

I was upset, and this was
the most angst-filled song

I could find in Mom's record collection.

What's wrong?

These are grown-up problems.
You wouldn't understand.

Okay, bye.

I was the youngest student
at the university, and now...

I thought I wouldn't
understand your problems.

Well, you're all I've got.

I always assumed that I'd be the
youngest student in grad school,

and then the youngest person
to win the Nobel Prize,

and now it's all slipping away.

No one cares how old you are.

Really? You don't think
I get treated special

because of my age and intellect?

I guess you do get everything
you want all the time.

See?

And whenever you're
obnoxious it's always,

"Poor Sheldon, he doesn't
know any better."

Exactly. "Poor Sheldon."

At grad school, everybody's
going to be smart.

If I'm not the youngest,
how am I gonna stand out?

Sheldon, you're a kid talking
about going to grad school.

You have no problems.

I knew you wouldn't understand.

I do... instead of being a kid genius,

you're worried you're just
gonna be a regular genius,

which is a stupid thing for
a genius to worry about.

Well, stupid or not,

I may not get to go to
Caltech until I'm 15.

Wait, this is about when you move out?

Yes.

I take it back, this is a big deal.

♪ Because I'm free ♪

♪ Nothing's worrying me. ♪

All right.

So, we're just gonna put you
on tape and see how it goes.

Okay. Uh, I'm ready.

Okay. In three...

All right, let's take a look
at our forecast for tonight.

Winds from the west are headed our way,

taking temperatures down
to a cool 43 degrees.

But you know what they say in Texas...

if you don't like the weather,
wait five minutes.

Actually, I've never said that,

but my Aunt Bonnie does.

She's not wrong though,

because those chilly days
are gonna pass us by,

and by the weekend we're
looking at sunny and 72.

Mandy was proving that new mothers

could do anything anyone else could do.

In fact, they could do more,

like make their own milk,

right there, on camera.

Everything okay?

Not if you live on the coast,

because there is a storm front building,

so we need to keep an eye on,
uh, these clouds right here.

Uh, but there's a low-pressure
system building, um, over here,

and, uh, well, then,
that could bring rain

to, uh, to this whole area here.

So, for Channel 7 weather,

I'm Mandy McAllister.

Good night.

And I just wanted to say
I'm sorry for my behavior.

I realized that I'm going to age out

of being a child prodigy
regardless of your help.

I appreciate that.

It takes maturity to admit
when you're wrong.

I know, even this apology is grown-up.

Well, this is all a disaster.

Son, it's not.

Believe me, no one is more excited

for you to go to grad school than I am.

I don't know, you should
talk to my sister.

Anyway, thank you for hearing me out.

Actually, Sheldon, I do have some news.

I reached out to a colleague

who's doing a summer research program

at the University of Heidelberg,

and I think I can get you in.

Heidelberg, Germany?

A summer program 5,000 miles away.

Only a fool would say no to that.

Well, that would certainly help
my grad school applications.

Yes, and they're doing exciting work

on superstrings.

Fantastisch.

That's German for "fantastic."

Ich helfe dir beim packen.

That's German for "I'll help you pack."
