“If Sheldon and Amy don’t want to expose Pemberton, that doesn’t mean someone else can’t do it for them. Penny says she doesn’t like the idea of them losing either, but this is Amy and Sheldon's decision to make. “Pemberton and Campbell have done an amazing job of associating their names with Super Asymmetry. “But what if they don’t win?” Leonard asks. Whatever the case, Penny is proud of Sheldon and Amy because they want to win the Nobel on their own merit and not by knocking out the competition. Leonard can't believe Sheldon doesn't want to tell on Pemberton because "he loves telling on people when they break the rules.” Penny says maybe he’s changed, but Leonard says that's not it. Bernadette says it shouldn’t matter, and Howard-realizing that he’s walking on eggshells-says, “You’re right, it doesn’t, 'cause I got the best one.” Two seconds later he wants to know if it was Susan, but Bernadette won’t say.Ĭut to Penny and Leonard who are talking about-you guessed it-Sheldon and Amy. There’s plenty of people that didn’t plagiarize.”īernadette says the woman still works there, and Howard wants to know who it is. “If Pemberton cheated, then maybe he shouldn’t have a career in the first place. Howard counters that if Pemberton is exposed, it wouldn’t just knock him out of contention but blow up his whole career.
On the other hand, Bernadette says, if someone is a cheater, they should be held accountable no matter how far back it was. Penny, however, says it’s not fair to use something that someone did in school against them. Once they fill everyone in, Leonard says that information won’t sit well with the Nobel committee. Sheldon says he and Amy are wrestling with an ethical question and perhaps they all can help. Later, Amy and Sheldon walk into Penny and Leonard’s apartment and for the first time since the episode started, we see the rest of the gang gathered for dinner. Kripke, however, says sleazy is where he thrives. He also says he doesn’t want to see Sheldon and Amy win a Nobel, but I guess they're the lesser of two evils.Īmy's not sure if she wants Kripke to dig up dirt on Pemberton and Campbell because it seems sleazy. Sheldon can’t believe Kripke would do that for them (same), but Kripke says he really doesn’t want to see Pemberton win a Nobel.
Sheldon tells Kripke that’s exactly what he’s doing to them, and Kripke says he’s not surprised because Pemberton has plagiarized before.
