- Sheldon Cooper: There's my pretty girlfriend.
- [pats her shoulder]
- Amy Farrah Fowler: I'm not going with you to Comic-Con.
- Sheldon Cooper: You, what! Can't a man just be happy to see his woman and pat her on her second most erogenous ball and socket joint?
- Amy Farrah Fowler: He can, but it's still not changing my mind.
- Sheldon Cooper: [seductively] Well, maybe what's in my pants will change your mind.
- [Amy turns to face him, hopefully]
- Sheldon Cooper: It's a list of this year's panelists. It's long, isn't it?
- Leonard Hofstadter: Maybe you should find someone to help you get your finances under control.
- Raj Koothrappali: Like a business manager?
- Sheldon Cooper: Oh, absolutely not! You can't afford to hire somebody who'll forbid you from spending your money on foolish expenses. It's a foolish expense and I forbid it.
- Howard Wolowitz: Oh, what if there's somebody who just likes controlling other people and stealing joy from their lives?
- Sheldon Cooper: He sounds like a sociopath.
- Leonard Hofstadter: We don't know; his mother never had him tested.
- Sheldon Cooper: You're talking about me. Very funny. Although... I would enjoy drawing up a budget and forcing Raj to adhere to it without an ounce of compassion.
- [first lines]
- Sheldon Cooper: [using a mechanical calculator] Uh-huh. Interesting. OK.
- Raj Koothrappali: How bad is it?
- Sheldon Cooper: Let me put it this way: do you own a barrel and suspenders?
- Raj Koothrappali: Are you serious?
- Sheldon Cooper: I'm not wearing this visor to play women's golf.
- Penny Hofstadter: [Penny enters] Hi. Oh, let me guess. You guys are drafting your fantasy accounting firms.
- Leonard Hofstadter: We're helping Raj figure out his finances.
- Penny Hofstadter: Oh, he has a job; how bad can it be?
- Sheldon Cooper: Well, his rent and car lease are exceedingly high. You couple that with his penchant for dining out and shopping...
- Penny Hofstadter: Wai-wait, not shopping for clothes right? Because look...
- [gestures at Raj]
- Leonard Hofstadter: So, this is the main Comic-Con floor. It's where all the vendors and exhibits are.
- Penny Hofstadter: Wow! There's a lot of people jammed in there.
- Leonard Hofstadter: I know. Sometimes Howard wears a striped shirt so we can play 'Where's Wolowitz?'
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Penny says they're ready to go.
- Sheldon Cooper: Very well. Prepare for a long night of deceit.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Sheldon, women can wear makeup. It's not lying!
- Sheldon Cooper: I was talking about Leonard. And if makeup is so truthful, why is it called concealer?
- Amy Farrah Fowler: You're actually going to Comic-Con?
- Penny Hofstadter: Well, Leonard wants me to do more stuff like that with him, so I thought maybe this year I'll tag along.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Well, that's sweet. I bet you'll have fun.
- Penny Hofstadter: You wanna come?
- Amy Farrah Fowler: No thanks. I already live in a place all the nerds come to.
- Penny Hofstadter: Please? I went to your boring thing last month.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: [indignant] My aunt's funeral?
- Penny Hofstadter: Come on, even you checked your e-mail during the eulogy.
- Penny Hofstadter: You know what, it's no big deal. I can put up with anything for three days.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Comic-Con is five days.
- Penny Hofstadter: Are you kidding me?
- Penny Hofstadter: You know, maybe it won't be that bad. Leonard says it's really mainstream now. Comic books aren't just for sad nerds anymore.
- [They pass Raj in an Aquaman costume waiving a sign for ComiCenter]
- Penny Hofstadter: I mean, it's still a key part of their demographic.
- Leonard Hofstadter: Now we're going as Hulk and She-Hulk! I don't wanna take my shirt off at Comic-Con!
- Sheldon Cooper: If I may speak for Comic-Con, we don't want that either.
- Howard Wolowitz: Dinner's almost ready. If you like meat loaf, I'm sure you'll like its cousin, bowl of meat.
- Leonard Hofstadter: I thought your father paid all your credit cards.
- Raj Koothrappali: I have a card for emergencies that I pay for myself.
- Sheldon Cooper: What kind of emergency happened at the LA Zoo?
- Raj Koothrappali: That's a penguin I sponsor. They're losing their homes to global warming and my car gets like seven miles a gallon, so I felt bad.
- Howard Wolowitz: You actually think Penny will have fun at Comic Con?
- Leonard Hofstadter: No, which will make me miserable, which is usually Sheldon's job.
- Sheldon Cooper: She's gonna hate waiting in line for the panels.
- Howard Wolowitz: She's gonna hate the crowds at the panels.
- Sheldon Cooper: She's gonna hate the panels.
- Leonard Hofstadter: She's gonna hate how often we say the word "panels".
- Leonard Hofstadter: Hang on, so I have to bring Penny, you can't afford it, Howard's gonna get in trouble, and he' s going to have a great time?
- Sheldon Cooper: I'm going to go as Dumbledore.
- Raj Koothrappali: I'm looking to make extra money and was wondering if you had any chores I could do.
- Howard Wolowitz: Hang on. Bernie, can I outsource my chores to an Indian guy?
- Bernadette Rostenkowski: No.
- Howard Wolowitz: I tried.
