• [first lines] 

  Raj Koothrappali : So, then I went to Cambridge, which was wonderful; not only because it's a good school, but because it totally looks like Hogwarts. That's where I fell in love with astronomy and now I'm an astrophysicist at Caltech, so I guess you could say, uh, Raj is my name and stars are my game. And rhyming is also my game. So, uh... two games. Uh, anyway, that's uh, that's enough about me; I want to hear everything about you.

  Lucy : I have to go to the bathroom.

  Raj Koothrappali : I go to the bathroom too. Sometimes more frequently than I care to admit. Oh, I've had it checked out; it's nothing.

  [Lucy heads off] 

  Raj Koothrappali : This is going great! Can I have a refill on my chai tea? Ah, yes, I've a good feeling about this.

  [Lucy sneaks out] 

  Raj Koothrappali : I should have bought condoms!

• Raj Koothrappali : I kind of have a hard time around people I don't know.

  Raj Koothrappali : Really? Then what were you doing at the comic book store that night?

  Lucy : I've been trying to force myself into situations that I'm not comfortable with. I saw the flyer in the store window, and I made myself go in. I don't even like comic books.

  Raj Koothrappali : Yeah. Me neither.

  Lucy : Then what were you doing there?

  Raj Koothrappali : I lied, I love them. I only said that so you'd go out with me.

  Lucy : You don't want to do that. I'm kind of broken.

  Raj Koothrappali : That's great! I'm broken too.

  Lucy : Oh, no, you're not.

  Raj Koothrappali : Oh, I totally am! If it wasn't for this beer, I couldn't even talk to you right now. I'm a wreck. There are many things seriously wrong with me. And not quirks, either. Like, diagnosable, psychological problems.

  [pauses] 

  Raj Koothrappali : Maybe brain damage.

  Lucy : How do I know you're not just saying that?

  Raj Koothrappali : Go out with me on one date, and I promise you you'll see.

  Lucy : OK. Text me. Bye.

  [starts to leave] 

  Raj Koothrappali : [yelling at her as she leaves]  You won't regret it! I'm the most pathetic guy you've ever met!

  [to himself] 

  Raj Koothrappali : And that, boys and girls, is how it's done.
