When Sheldon ends up in court for running a red light (Penny's Fault), he insults the judge and potentially charged with contempt. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang is at the comic book store, getting autographs from Stan Lee (who actually appears isn the episode.). Penny goes the extra mile to make up for her betrayal and the results are quite hilarous.

The Excelsior Acquisition (#3.16)

Sheldon was so much fun in this episode. I loved him in court and of course in jail. He even got his spot there! Him going to Stan Lee's house was also pretty cool. I love how happy he was with the autographed restraining order from Stan Lee and the fact that he will see him again during the hearing. Was nice to see Stan Lee as well.
Stan Lee provides a hilarious cameo on "The Excelsior Acquisition" ep of "The Big Bang Theory"

Warning: Spoilers
In this episode of last season's "The Big Bang Theory": Stan Lee is appearing at Stuart's comic shop which gets Leonard, Sheldon, Howard, and Raj all excited while Penny at first thinks they're meeting Stanley Tucci. Unfortunately, Sheldon is summoned to traffic court because of his running a red light when he took Penny to the hospital on his learner's permit. Things have a way of turning out well at the end, though...This is another hilarious episode what with Raj's using his new shirt to play various music cues, his asking why the Marvel Comics writer always have his characters with the same letter on first and last names, Sheldon's script with Penny for court (not to mention Penny's sarcastic readings), and Sheldon's reactions on finally meeting him. Oh, and Mr. Lee himself is also funny and on Chuck Lorre's vanity card, there's another funny story of his meeting him when he was at Marvel Productions. So on that note, "The Excelsior Acquisition" is another hilarious ep of "The Big Bang Theory".

This is more like it.
This is a much better episode than some of late, with the three main characters of Penny/Leonard/Sheldon being more at the forefront of the action.
The show is embracing its pop culture references more too, with a cameo here from Stan Lee.
Good stuff from what has been an uneven 3rd year.
