Sheldon participating in a drinking game?
I love whenThe Big Bang Theorywriters put Sheldon in uncomfortable situations.
Im talking about an actual forest complete with woodland creatures and hippie teenagers with guitars.

Theres only one thing that could make this scenario more entertaining: alcohol.
Leonard and Penny are game.
A female doctor in Pennys rotation has a cabin where they can stay for free.
It only takes one phone call and a promise to join the good doctor at an Indigo Girls concert.
Mother Nature is no friend of his.
Amy tries a different tactic.
What if Leonard comes back from the woods smarter?
Meanwhile, Raj has taken on the role of caregiver when it comes to Bernadettes maternity needs.
He accompanies her to appointments, carries the groceries, and even offers a list on top-rated lactation consultants.
This baby is a Wolowitz.
Back at the cabin, Sheldon wonders if they should check each other for ticks.
When he drops his pants, Amy is first to volunteer.
Unfortunately, an unexpected rain storm thwarts their plans to rough it outdoors.
There is no Internet, no television, no cell phone service, and no board games.
What they do have is wine.
Penny suggests they play the drinking game: Never Have I Ever.
The rules are simple.
One person states something that they have never done.
If you HAVE done that thing before, you take a drink.
Leonard kicks it off after Penny cant readily recall anything shes never done before.
The first one out of the gate is a doozy: Never have I ever been arrested.
Sheldon drinks and everyone is dumbfounded!
Including Sheldon, who is floored by the fact that Pennyisnttaking a sip.
After the shock and awe subside, Sheldon explains that he was arrested for jaywalking.
He had to avoid an aggressive Girl Scout in the peak of cookie season.
The only way around was to break the law.
In fact, the police man didnt even notice.
Sheldon accused him of impersonating an officer.
Hence, the arrest.
Especially when he mentions her massive credit card debt.
She stalks out of the room, and Leonard follows.
When she finds out that the balance is significant, she confesses a secret shes been keeping from Leonard.
She hates her job.
But she knows that she needs to do the grown-up thing and pay off her debt.
Could Penny be switching jobs in the future?
Raise your hand if you miss the Cheesecake Factory.
Over in civilization, Bernadettes baby hormones have kicked into overdrive.
Raj returns, promising not to get carried away.
Howard suggests they use the ultrasound microphone (that Raj bought) to listen to the babys heartbeat.
Howard places his head on Bernies shoulder.
Raj does the same on her other shoulder.
Ten bucks says hes in the delivery room when this kid makes his or her debut.
And last, but not least, teenagers with guitars.
Leonard:I bought a baseball cap!
Penny:I see that.
What team did you get?
Leonard:Hufflepuff fromHarry Potter.
Sheldon:Im down to one bar on my cell phone.
