I was sat on the couch watching the tv.

"Damn you, welletnook.com." Sheldon said. I stood behind him looking at the laptop.

"Problem?" I asked.

"The online description was completely misleading, they said eight slots plus removable ID, to any rational person that would mean room for nine cards, but they don't tell you the removable ID takes up one slot, it's a nightmare." Sheldon says.

"Okay, now, do you really need the honorary Justice League of America membership card?" Leo asked.

"It's been in every wallet I've owned since I was five." Sheldon answered,

"Why?" I asked.

 "It says keep this on your person at all times. (Knock on door) It's right here under Batman's signature." Sheldon answered. Leonard opens door. Raj and Howard are outside. Raj is holding a laptop which is open. His parents are on the screen.

"And this is Leonard and Sheldon's apartment." Raj says. I just looked a Howard.

"Guess whose parents just got broadband." Howard says.

"May I present, live from New Delhi, Dr and Mrs V. M. Koothrappali." Raj says I nod.

"Hi." Leo says.

"Lift up the camera. I'm looking at his crotch." Dr Koothrappali says.

"Sorry papa." Raj says.

"Oh, there's much better. Hi." Dr Koothrappali continues.

"Hi!" Leo says.

"And over here is Sheldon and his girlfriend Alex." Raj says. 

"Hi." Me and Sheldon say in unison. 

"They live with Leonard." Raj says.

"Oh, that's nice. Like Haroun and Tanweer and the girlfriend." Mrs Koothrappali say. 

"No, no, not like Haroun and Tanweer and the girlfriend." Raj says.

"Such sweet young men, they just adopted the cutest little Punjabi baby." Mrs Koothrappali says I just look at the boys.

"Yeah, we're not like Haroun and Tanweer!" Leo says.

"So are you boys academics like our son?" Dr Koothrappali asks.

"Yes." We answer.

"And your parents are comfortable with your limited earning potential?" Dr Koothrappali asks.

"Not at all." We answer.

"Papa, please don't start." Raj begs.

"God, it's just a question, he's so sensitive." Dr Koothrappali says.

"Okay, that's my life, that's my friends, good to see you, say goodbye." Raj says.

"Bye!" We say.

"Wait, wait. Before you go we have good news. Put the computer down and gather your friends." Dr Koothrappali says.

"What is it papa." Raj says.

"Friends." Dr Koothrappali says.

"(as they gather) Is it just me, or does webchatting with your clothes on seem a little pointless." Howard says.

"Rajesh, do you remember Lalita Gupta?" Mrs Koothrappali asks.

"The little fat girl that used to kick me in the samosas and call me untouchable." Raj answers.
