Quotes 

• Leonard Hofstadter : Sheldon doesn't like reclaimed wood.

  Penny : Why not?

  Leonard Hofstadter : He's afraid the original owners will come back.

• Penny : Hi. Sorry I'm late. I was at an audition.

  Howard Wolowitz : Ahh.

  Sheldon Cooper : You'll get 'em next time.

  Penny : How about instead of assuming I failed, you ask me how it went?

  Leonard Hofstadter : Sorry. How did it go?

  Penny : Just shut up.

• Sheldon Cooper : OK. I think we found the problem here. It's not the table at all. It's you.

  Penny : Me?

  Leonard Hofstadter : Well. It's always me. Take one for the team.

  Sheldon Cooper : I have spent years turning this lump of clay into an acceptable conduit for my will and then you came along and reshaped him with your newfangled ideas and your fancy genitals.

  Penny : Are you gonna let him talk to me like this?

  Leonard Hofstadter : "Fancy" sounds like a compliment.

  Penny : OK, I have not tried to change Leonard. That is just happens in relationships. Look how much Amy has changed you.

  Sheldon Cooper : That's not true.

  Penny : Oh sweetie. When I first met you were incapable of touching another human being. Now you're holding holds, going on dates, you even made out with her on a train.

  Leonard Hofstadter : She told you?

  Penny : Of courses she told me. It's the most interesting thing that happened to her entire life.

  Leonard Hofstadter : You're too close to it, but Amy has had a huge impact on you.

  Sheldon Cooper : You're right. Without realizing I allowed that woman to alter my personality.

  Leonard Hofstadter : Mmm. You didn't have a personality; you just had some shows you liked.

  Sheldon Cooper : No. No, I've changed. Like the frog that's put in a pot of water that's heated so gradually he doesn't realize he's boiling to death.

  Penny : Or you're the frog that's been kissed by the princess and turned into a prince.

  Leonard Hofstadter : Or you're just a tall annoying frog.

  Sheldon Cooper : Excuse me. I have to break up with my girlfriend.

  Penny : Oh, Sheldon. Wait.

  Sheldon Cooper : No. You've opened my eyes to the truth. Amy has made me a more affectionate open-minded person. And that stops now.

  Leonard Hofstadter : Well, we should call her.

  Penny : Yeah. Amy. It's Penny. Hey. Just a little heads up. Leonard bought a dining room table. Yeah. Sheldon's breaking up with you.

• Penny : Sheldon's not here.

  Leonard Hofstadter : Well he is here.

  [Points to his head] 

  Leonard Hofstadter : So unless you want to dig him out with a bone saw and a melon baller there's nothing I can do about it.
