Its time to walk the green mile.

Howard isnt the only one whos nervous.

Moreover, hes not going to water anything down.

Leonard gets the hint.

If Sheldon is going for borderline psychotic with complete contempt for children, then mission accomplished!

Penny takes a different tack.

He figures he can ask someone who has acted professionally to help him out.

Penny smiles, honored that her friend is dropping boundaries to ask for her assistance.

Cue Sheldon knocking on Wil Wheatons door.

Its no wonder her doctor puts her on bedrest for overdoing it.

Shes such a good friend!

You know who isnt a good friend?

Its enough for Sheldon to get a lovely visit from Jedi Professor Proton in his dreams.

Why are they getting all weird that she puts a little bourbon on Halleys pacifier to help her sleep?

Its a joke…for the most part.

How is this fair?

Of course, he catches himself before falling into Wils Hollywood ways and threatens their friendship.

Does Wil want to go back to being archnemeses?

Wil doesnt mind because he doesnt really see a difference.

Consider yourself warned, Wheaton.

The wrath of Sheldon will fall upon you soon.

And the wrath of Penny will fall on the Wolowitz household soon, too.

After Bernadette and Howard run their friend ragged, they hear Penny consoling their child from the baby monitor.

Halley calls Penny Mama.

Theoretical Laughter

Raj:You know who could play Professor Proton?

Meryl Streep.Howard:Shes not a scientist.Raj:Then explain to me why she has chemistry with literally everyone.

Penny:I can watch your stupid baby!

If she cries, Ill pick her up.

If shes hungry, Ill give her a bottle.

And if she poops, Ill light some incense.
