The Big Bang & Beyond

The Dumpling Paradox: Part 1

{A/N: Skipping to 'The Dumpling Paradox' since I don't see Savannah's presence causing any significant changes in the other episode}

Savannah's POV:

Howard's showing Leonard & Raj while Sheldon sits on the couch waiting for them so they can all play 'Halo'.

Howard: "Watch this, it's really cool.-*to Siri*-Call Leonard Hofstadter."

Siri: "Did you say 'Call Helen Boxlightner'?"

Howard: "No. Call Leonard Hofstadter."

Siri: "Did you say 'Call Temple Badsaidor'?"

Howard: "No."

Leonard: "Here, here. Let me try.-*to Siri*-Call McFlono McFlunilu." *laughs*

Siri: "Calling Rajesh Koothrappali."

As promised, Howard's phone auto-dials Raj's number, causing the latter's phone to ring.

Raj: "Oh, it's very impressive. And a little racist."

Sheldon: "If we're all through playing 'Mock the Flawed Technology', can we get on with Halo night? We were supposed to start at 8:00. It is now 8:06."

Leonard: "So we'll start now."

Sheldon: "Yes. First, we'll have to decide if those lost 6 minutes will be coming out of game time, bathroom time, or the pizza break."

Raj: "We could split it 2, 2, and 2."

Howard: "If we're having anchovies on the pizza, we can't take it out of bathroom time."

Then, someone knocks on the door.

Sheldon: "Oh, what fresh hell is this?"

Leonard answers and opens the door to reveal Penny.

Leonard: "Hey, Penny. Come on in."

Penny: "Hey, guys."

Howard: "See a Penny, pick her up, and all the day, you'll have good luck."

Penny: "No, you won't.-*to Leonard*-Uh, can I hide out here for a while?"

Leonard: "Sure. What's going on?"

Penny: "Well, there's this girl I know from back in Nebraska, Christy. Anyway, she called me up, and she's like, 'Hey, how's California?' and I'm like, 'Awesome'. 'Cause, you know, it's not Nebraska, and the next thing I know, she's invited herself out here to stay with me."

Sheldon: "8:08."

Penny: "Anyway, she got here today, and she's just been in my apartment yakity yakking about every guy she slept with in Omaha, which is basically every guy in Omaha, and washing the sluttiest collection of underwear you have ever seen in my bathroom sink."

Howard perks up at the mention of lingerie.

Howard: "Well, is she doing it one thong at a time, or does she throw it all in like some sort of erotic bouillabaisse?"

Penny: "He really needs to dial it down."

Leonard: "I know."

Me: "So if you don't like Christy, why are you letting her stay?"
