1. PENNY, SHELDON AND LEONARD

PENNY: Boy, it's good to be back.

LEONARD: How's your family?

PENNY: Oh, it was the worst trip. Everyone got sick over the weekend.

SHELDON: Sick?

LEONARD: Here we go.

SHELDON: What kind of sick?

PENNY: Oh, the flu, I guess.

SHELDON: I don't need you to guess. I need you to know. Now, when did the symptoms first appear?

PENNY: Maybe Friday.

SHELDON: Friday. Was that morning or afternoon?

PENNY: I-I don't...

SHELDON: Think, woman. Who blew their nose and when?

LEONARD: Sheldon, relax. She doesn't have any symptoms. I'm sure she's not contagious.

SHELDON: Oh, please. If influenza was only contagious after symptoms appear, it would have died out thousands of years ago. Somewhere between tool using and cave painting, homo habilis would have figured out how to kill the guy with the runny nose.

LEONARD: Penny, you'll have to excuse

Sheldon: He's a bit of a germaphobe.

2. LEONARD AND SHELDON

SHELDON: Oh, dear God. Leonard. Leonard, I'm sick. Leonard. Leonard, I'm sick. Leonard. Leonard. Leonard. Leonard, my comforter fell down, and my sinuses hurt when I bend over. Leonard? Ow.

LEONARD: Hey.

SHELDON; Leonard, where are you?

LEONARD: I'm at work.

SHELDON: At 6:30 in the morning?

LEONARD: Yes.

SHELDON: On Sunday?

LEONARD: Yes.

SHELDON: Why?

LEONARD: They asked me to come in.

SHELDON: I didn't hear the phone ring.

LEONARD: They texted me.

SHELDON: Well, as I predicted, I am sick. My fever has been tracking up exponentially since 2 a.m., and I am producing sputum at an alarming rate.

LEONARD: No kidding?

SHELDON: Nope. Not only that, it has shifted from clear to milky green.

LEONARD: All right, well, get some rest and drink plenty of fluids.

SHELDON: What else would I drink? Gases? Solids? Ionized plasma?

LEONARD: Drink whatever you want.

SHELDON: I want soup.

LEONARD: Then make soup.

SHELDON: We don't have soup.

LEONARD: I'm at work, Sheldon.

SHELDON: Is that a dog?LEONARD: Yes. 3. MRS. WOLOWITZ, LEONARD AND HOWARD

MRS. WOLOWITZ; Howard, it's the phone.

HOWARD: I know it's the phone, Ma. I hear the phone.

MRS. WOLOWITZ; Well, who's calling at this ungodly hour?

HOWARD: I don't know.

MRS. WOLOWITZ: Well, ask them why they're calling at this ungodly hour.

HOWARD: How can I ask them when I'm talking to you? Hello?

LEONARD: Howard, it's Leonard. Code milky green.

HOWARD: Dear Lord, not milky green.

LEONARD: Affirmative. With fever.

MRS. WOLOWITZ: Who's on the phone?

HOWARD: It's Leonard.

MRS. WOLOWITZ:Why is he calling?

HOWARD: Sheldon's sick. 4. SHELDON AND PENNYHomeless crazy guy at Table 18. PENNY: No, just crazy. Sheldon, what are you doing here?

SHELDON: I'm sick. Thank you very much.

PENNY: How could you've gotten if from me? I'm not sick.

SHELDON: You're a carrier. All these people here are doomed. You're doomed.

PENNY: Shh! Sheldon, what do you want?

SHELDON: I want soup.

PENNY: Why didn't you just...? Why didn't you just have soup at home?

SHELDON: Penny, I have an IQ of 187. Don't you imagine that if there were a way for me to have had soup at

home, I would have thought of it?

PENNY: You can have soup delivered.

SHELDON: I did not think of that. Clearly, febrile delirium is setting in. Please bring me some soup while I

still understand what a spoon is for. 5. PENNY AND SHELDON

PENNY: Okay, nice and cozy. Okay, I'll see you later.

SHELDON: Wait. Will you please rub this on my chest?

PENNY: Oh, Sheldon, can't you do that yourself?

SHELDON: VapoRub makes my hands smell funny.

PENNY: But, Sheldon...

SHELDON: Please, please, please, please, please, please, please.

PENNY: I can't believe I'm doing this.

SHELDON: No, no. Counterclockwise or my chest hair mats.

PENNY: Sorry.

SHELDON: Can you sing Soft Kitty?

PENNY: What?

SHELDON: My Mom used to sing it to me when I was sick.

PENNY: I'm sorry, honey. I don't know it.

SHELDON: I'll teach you. Soft kitty, warm kitty, Little ball of fur. Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr. Now you.

PENNY: Soft kitty, warm kitty...

SHELDON: Little ball of fur. Keep rubbing.

PENNy: Little ball of fur. 6. PENNY AND SHELDON

PENNY: Oh, it's okay. I didn't really need to work today. It's not like I have rent or car payments or anything.

SHELDON: Good, good.

PENNY: Okay, well, you feel better.

SHELDON: Wait. Where are you going?

PENNY: Um, home to write some bad checks.

SHELDON: You're going to leave me?

PENNY: Hey, Sheldon, you are a grown man. Haven't you ever been sick before?

SHELDON: Of course, but not by myself.

PENNy: Really? Never?

SHELDON: Well, once, when I was 15 and spending the summer at the Heidelberg Institute in Germany.

PENNY: Studying abroad?

SHELDON: No, visiting professor. Anyway, the local cuisine was a little more sausage-based than I'm used to, and the result was an internal Blitzkrieg..1. PENNY, SHELDON AND LEONARD
