Watch for — every moment, theme by theme
Sex & hookups 6 moments
How Sex & hookups shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Raj
Yeah, but since you and Penny finally hooked up, we thought you two would be having bouncy naked yum-yum night.
- Leonard
Nothing flamed out. We don’t have to have sex every night, you know.
- Leonard
There’s more to life than sex, Raj.
- Sheldon
Perhaps what Leonard is obliquely referring to is the occurrence of some sort of sexual dysfunction.
- Leonard
Nothing like that happened, all right? The sex was just fine.
- Sheldon
As I was saying, you and Leonard had a disappointing sexual encounter.
Nudity & bodies 1 moment
How Nudity & bodies shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Howard
What’s there to learn? You get naked, do nasty things to each other, then somebody makes scrambled eggs and salami. Easy peasy.
Violence & injury 1 moment
How Violence & injury shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Sheldon
Oh, a clever, albeit obsolete, euphemism for insufficient blood flow to the male sex organ.
Swearing 2 moments
How Swearing shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Howard
Okay, I believe a chicken made you his bitch. But the cricket thing, I don’t buy. Bet me.
- Raj
Holy crap. It’s like Silence of the Lambs down here. (Howard tickles the back of his neck. He screams) Don’t do that!
Alcohol & drugs 2 moments
How Alcohol & drugs shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Leonard
Yeah, it’s a perfectly good word. You put it in front of wine or dining, and you’ve really got something. Okay, well, let me ask you this, how was last night for you?
- Penny
You know, I think this is one of those things where talking about it is not going to make it better. Want a glass of wine?
Slut-shaming 1 moment
How Slut-shaming shows up in The Big Bang Theory S3 E2:
- Prof Crawley
That tramp took me for everything!
