Previously on
Young Sheldon...

So, there's a secret

back room
at the laundromat

where you gamble?

Yeah.

And you never told me?

Well, this is how
secrets work.

The cops shut me down.

Let's get this going again.

What a haul, huh?
Now what happens?

I take it home,
pour it on the bed,

and just roll around in it.

From grade school
to high school,

every moment of the day

is accounted for.

From the morning bell
to dismissal,

you knew where
you were supposed to be,

what you were
going to be learning,

and which poor excuse
for a teacher

you would have to correct.
Ms. Ingram,

can I offer a suggestion?

What?
Never mind. You do it your way.

Yes, Sheldon?

I don't find that
interesting.

Cooper?

If you're going to ask us
to run,

don't you think you should
lead by example?

None of this prepared me

for the gap-filled,
Swiss cheese anarchy

of a college schedule.
Look at these poor saps.

Desperately trying to occupy
their time until the next class.

I smell your perfume.

So, what, pray tell,
is today's problem?

I have a four-hour gap
in my schedule.

How is that a problem?

According to the
Oxford English Dictionary,

it's a matter or situation
regarded as unwelcome

or harmful and needing
to be dealt with and overcome.

Fine, go hang out
in the cafeteria.

I don't "hang."

Go to the library.

Too noisy.

Take a nap. Kids love those.

In a public place?

I'm sorry, is this Woodstock?

Sheldon, I'm not the one
who made your schedule.

No, but as the president
of the university,

you do have the power
to adjust the class times.

So, you expect me

to disrupt the schedule

of hundreds of students
for your convenience?

Finally, we're on the same page.

Sheldon, I have work to do,

and I'm sure that you can
solve this one on your own.

I suppose a nap
might be refreshing.

What kind of lumbar support
does that couch have?

That's it. Come with me.

Here we are.

What is this?

A dorm room, and it's all yours.

You can study, take naps,
do whatever you want.

No one's living here?

Well, we had an Indian
exchange student,

but he developed a taste
for barbecue,

so his parents
made him go home.

Well, thank you for this.

You're welcome.

It's like I always say,

never underestimate
the power of complaining.

I've been testing
that theory for decades,

still works like gangbusters.

♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪

♪ Yesterday I moved a mountain

♪ I bet I could be your hero

♪ I am a mighty little man

♪ I am a mighty little man.♪

So, how we doing?

Not bad, but I still think
if you let me advertise,

we could get
more people in here.

How do you advertise a place
that ain't exactly legal?

People love secrets.
We could get flyers that say,

"Come to our
secret gambling room,

but, shh, don't tell anybody."

That's how I feel
about your ideas,

"Shh, don't tell anybody."

Hey, y'all.

Hey, June.

Glad you finally
came down.

This is so fun,

sneaking in through
the back alley.

Y'all should get
a secret knock.

'Cause secrets are fun, right?

Absolutely.

Told you.

Go do your job.

So, how's this
all work?

You play, you lose, you go home
smelling like cigarettes.

You just described
my love life.

And if you're gonna
take naps in your dorm,

you might want an alarm clock.

And remember, no parties.

That was a joke.

And now I know.

Wait, he has a room
here and at school?

Well, it's just for downtime
in between classes.

Why is his life
constantly better than mine?

That's a question you should
get used to asking.

Don't be rude.

And you have a very nice life.

Yeah, yeah, loving parents,
blah, blah, blah.

Hey, you better appreciate
what you got.

There's a lot of kids out there
who have way less than you.

I guess.

You have your own room.

I never had that growing up.

And then I was in the barracks,
and then I married your mother.

Dang.

Yeah. Tell me about it.

What happened to appreciating
what you have?

Yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah.

Maybe we could
give out punch cards,

like they do
at the sandwich shop.

Punch cards for what?

You know, every ten times
you come here,

you get a free play.

What's to keep people

from punching it themselves?

I'm getting me a free sandwich.

Whoo-hoo!

Sounds like you're doing
okay down here.

Oh, I'm doing better
than okay. I hit big.

Whoa.

$11,000?

That can't be right.

Well, I see two ones
and three zeroes.

Last time I checked,
that's 11,000.

How did this happen?

I got three bananas,

and it asked me

if I wanted to parlay,
and I said,

"Well, that sounds like fun,"
so I hit that button,

and I went, "Whoo-hoo!"
'cause I won.

This has got to be a glitch.

Go get a manual
and-and-and look up "glitch."

We have a manual?
Just find one.

Is there a problem?
No, of course not.

That's okay.
You don't have to pay me.

Of course I do.

Good. Then pay me.

Found the manual.
Great.

This is for the
washing machines.

I'll be back.

Hello, Sam.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Well, I was gonna study

in my dorm, but there
was a sock on my door.

Oh, and you didn't want
to touch it.

I understand completely.

Yeah, you really don't,
but that's fine.

Well, I have a room here,

so you could study with me
if you'd like.

Oh, uh, yeah. Yeah.

That'd be great.

Why was there a sock
on your door?

It's like a signal.

A signal for what?

A signal that I should
change the subject.

How are your classes going?

So well, thank you
for asking.

I didn't realize
you lived on campus.
I don't.

Then why do you
have a dorm room?

So I have a place to go
during the gaps in my schedule.

Wait, you have a single?

Uh-huh.

And you don't even sleep here?

Well, sometimes
I take naps,

but that mattress
is lumpy-lumpy.

I live with two other girls
in a room this size.

You should've complained
to President Hagemeyer.

She was very
accommodating.

Wait, there are two closets?

That's a bathroom.

Are you kidding me?

I share one with, like,
30 other people.

That sounds yucky.

It is, Sheldon.
It is very yucky.

However yucky you think it is,
it is yuckier.

Well, you're welcome
to use mine.

Just squat over the seat,
don't sit.

This is so unfair.

You get so much more
than every other student.

Fair isn't everyone
getting the same thing.

Fair is everyone
getting what they deserve.

Sheldon, that arrogant attitude

is why no one
sits with you in class

or lunch or ever.

Well, I like to think
that they're maintaining

a respectful distance out of
deference to my intellect.

No. That's not
what they're doing.

They're avoiding you
because you're an entitled brat

who thinks that you're better
than everybody else.

So, I should just pretend
I'm less intelligent than I am?

You should realize that there
are more important things

in life than how smart you are.

Well, I'm also cute as a button,

but it seems shallow to say it.

You could say it.

So, Georgie
found the manual

and figured out
what the problem was.

I know the problem.
I cleaned you out.

Because when these
machines get unplugged,

they reset at the highest
possible payout.

Wow, sounds like your problem.

Well...

I don't have $11,000.

I understand.

Thank you.

So, what are you
gonna do about it?

Well, obviously,
lunch is on me.

Oh, wow. The whole lunch?

Even the little
frilly toothpicks?

What do you want me to do?

Make me a partner.

What?

No.

I already brought
Georgie in,

I have to pay
the police off,

I can't have another hand
in the till.

Sounds like your problem again.

And then she said
people avoid me

because I'm arrogant and
entitled.
Hmm...

I don't even know why
it bothers me.

Well, Sheldon,
it's normal to care

what others in your peer group
think of you.

Why? It's not logical.

Hear me out.

You see, humans

have evolved
as social animals,

so your feeling hurt might be
a deep evolutionary desire

to cooperate with others

to ensure your survival.

So, you're saying it makes
sociobiological sense

to want other people
to like me?

Yes, and you may even
get benefits from it.

It's like on that show
you enjoy, Star Track.

Trek.
Right.

Captain Kirk can't
do it all by himself.

He needs Doctor Spock.

Mister.
Right.

And Mister McCoy.

Doctor.
Right.

Well, technically, they were
his subordinate officers,

but Kirk did always deal
with them in a friendly manner,

so I take your point.

Good man.

I suppose I could treat it
like an experiment.

Run an analysis of the benefits
of having people like me.

That sounds like
an idea the Captain,

the Doctor, or the Mister
would be proud of.

Excellent.

You know, you'd think
a smart fella like Spock

would have a doctorate.

Actually, Spock
rejected an offer

from the Vulcan Science Academy
in order to attend Starfleet.

Huh. Not the choice
I would have made,

but I'm happy for him.

How'd it go?

Terrible.

She wants to be a partner.

You really can't just pay her?
I thought you had money.

I used to.
Now all I have is this.

Not all of it,
some of it's mine.

Well, some of it's hers,
too, now.

Well, is she
a partner forever

or just until
she gets her money back?

I don't know.

Seems like an important
question to ask.

Well, I didn't ask it.

All this yelling can't be good

for your blood pressure.

You're right.

I think I'm just
gonna step outside

and have a cigarette.

Smoking ain't any better.

Good. Perhaps the end is near.

Excuse me, Sam.

What?
How are you today?

Since when do you care?
12:07 yesterday.

In light of the fact that
we're both human beings

and have a genetic interest
in each other's prosperity,

you may use
my dorm room to study.

Wait, are you serious?
That would be amazing.

Good. And does that make you
feel more positive about me,

less positive, or neutral?

Um, more, I guess.

Excellent.

Dr. Sturgis

may have been onto something.

It did feel nice to be liked.

Not as nice as knowing

you're the smartest boy
in Texas, but what was?

Hey. Did I just
hear you say

you have a dorm room
you're letting people use?

Yes. I'm letting Sam
use it to study.

You think there's any chance
my girlfriend and I

could use it sometime?

You two study together?

We'd like to.

It's been a while.

Well, I use it during the day,

so it's only available at night.

Nights work for us.

Then it's all yours.

Thanks, man.

And how does this make you
feel about me?

More positive,
less positive, or neutral?

Really, really
positive.

Great. Tell a friend.

All right.

I might have to draw up
a schedule.

How's this?

Eh. Looks great.

What the hell is all this?

June brought in
twinkle lights.

Oh, did she?
I thought it might

make things a little
more festive.

Looks like Christmas in jail.

I actually have
a really good story about that.

Take it down.

Maybe when you're
in a better mood.

I think it's pretty.
Nobody asked you, Wade.

We may need to have a chat
about customer service.

We're gonna have a chat
about a lot of things,

starting with how come
you're redecorating

without even asking me.

I'm a partner.

A silent partner.

Hey, I can help here.

She's got some
good ideas.

So, you're on her side now?

A good idea's
a good idea,

who cares where
it comes from.

Thank you.

And I like your idea
about putting a dartboard

in the corner.

Oh. So, this is how
it's gonna be?

Fine.

When Wade here
takes a dart to the head,

don't come crying
to me.

I don't want a dart
in the head.

Over the next several days,

my social experiment
was providing clear-cut data

about the benefits

of being well-liked.
Hey, Sheldon.

Heard you like these.

Thank you.

It's the best watery
chocolate milk on the market.

Thank you for letting me
use your room.

I suppose it was like
the old saying,

"I scratch your back,
you scratch mine,"

which I actually
have issues with.

Why is your back itchy?

A rash? Chicken pox?

Scabies? Scratch your own back.

It turns out it's easy
to make people like you.

You just have to
give them things.

Wow. I think you've really
discovered something here.

Perhaps I should publish before
someone else stumbles onto it.

All right. Oh. Hey.

An all-nighter, huh?

Oh, yeah. All night.

Thank you.

Someone's gonna ace
those midterms.

Yeah, you know it.

My room has become
quite the little study hall.

Yeah, they may not be...

Uh, you know what, you're fine.

Well, isn't this nice?
Little grandmother, grandson

bonding time.

What's going on?

Can't I buy
my favorite grandson lunch?

Look, we got to talk
about this June situation.

She's just trying
to make the place better.

This is our thing.

We can't just let her take over.

She ain't taking over,

and she likes to hear my ideas.

She's just using you
to get her way.

You know what
your problem is?

You don't like anything
you didn't think of yourself.

Is that so?
Yeah.

Well, I thought of
bringing you in,

and that wasn't a good idea.

If that's how you feel,

then we got nothing more
to talk about.

I guess not.
Well, okay.

You can go now.

My chicken fingers
ain't here yet.

Can we watch 90210?
What's that?

It's about kids who go
to school in Beverly Hills.

If you want to see
a show about Beverly Hills,

we should watch
Beverly Hillbillies.

That's a show.

What's it about?

Eh... Imagine your meemaw

moving to California.

I'd watch that.

Hello?

Sheldon, it's for you.

Who is it?

Who is it?

Travis.

Who's Travis?

Who are you?

Friend of Sheldon's.

Really?
Really?

Hi, Travis.

Oh,

Monday's no good. I can
pencil you in for Wednesday.

You got it.

Goodbye.

Is that a friend from school?

I suppose.

Well, that's exciting.

And a little exhausting.

I've been letting students
use my dorm

to study while I'm not there,
and it's made me

very popular.

It's nice that you're
helping people out.

Yes, but who knew
having friends

involved so much scheduling?

Sheldon,
some girl for you.

Hello?

Hi, Sarah.

Well, if you and Ben really need
the room on Wednesday,

you're going to have
to work it out

with Travis and Amy
because they asked first.

He's getting popular.

I think I might know why
those kids want to use his room.

Well, he said
for studying.

They ain't studying.

Oh, now it makes sense.

You really think they're...

A bunch of college kids
in an empty dorm room?

Should we tell him?

I don't want to tell him.
Do you?

I'll tell him.No.

Okay, hang on, she volunteered.
No.

Whoa, and the '70s are back.

All we need are the Bee Gees
and bell-bottoms,

and it's Studio 54.

I don't know what any
of that means, but all right.

So, I guess your meemaw
came over on our side.

No. She pissed me off,
so now she gets a disco ball.

I don't want to get caught in
the middle of a family squabble.

Oh, don't worry,
she'll know it was me.

Then I love it.

Now, what's a Bee Gee?

It's a brother singing band.

They did all the music
for Saturday Night Fever.

What's Saturday Night Fever?

Damn, I'm old.

Hey, Shelly, you busy?

I'm turning my dorm room
schedule into a spreadsheet,

so people can sign up at school
and stop calling me.

Yeah, about that...

George?

Y-Your mother and I
are worried that

your friends at school might be
taking advantage of you.

What do you mean?

They might not be
using it in the...

the spirit that you intended.

How are they using it?

Mary?

We're worried that those couples

are not going there to study...

But that's why
I'm lending them the room.

And that is why
we are concerned.

Are you saying they're using it
as a goof-off room?

Yes.

That's exactly
what we're saying.

Well, let's drive
over there right now

and catch them in the act.

No!
L-Let's just
let them finish...

goofing off tonight,

and we'll put
a stop to it tomorrow.

Well, thank you for telling me.

We thought that you should know.

Mm.

Those dirty goof-offs.

♪ Beverly... Hills,
that is ♪

♪ Swimming pools...

So those are
the Clampetts,

and they moved from
the backwoods to Beverly Hills.

Oh, in 90210 the Walshes
moved from Minnesota.

They have a hard time fitting in
with those California snobs?

Oh, yeah.These guys do, too.

It's practically the same show.

Where's Georgie?

In the garage.

Disco ball, my ass.
What's going on?

It's a gambling room,
not a damn dance club,

that's what's going on. Georgie!

I want to watch
that show.

♪ Y'all come back now, y'hear? ♪
