My name is Inigo Montoya.

You killed my father.

I always enjoy when an episode ofThe Big Bang Theoryrevolves around our four favorite scientists discovering something new together.

Having Leonard, Sheldon, Howard, and Raj adopt an extracurricular physical activity was extremely entertaining.

Other than kite fighting, I dont think weve seen the friends engage in anything that made them sweat.

Its high time they add athlete to their list of accomplishments.

Leonard enthusiastically lists off all of the sporting activities available to them as employees of Caltech.

Its decided that fencing is the obvious choice.

No one has to throw, catch, run, or use sunscreen.

And they dont have to wear gym shorts that could suddenly be pulled up or down.

Barry Kripke is the fencing instructor who warns them that fencing is sewious.

There will be noStar Wars,Game of Thrones, orPrincess Bridereenactments.

He teaches the guys the basic steps, instructing them to use their dominant leg.

Thats your dominant leg.

Lets hear it for the lefties!

Everyone is Inigo Montoya and wants their fencing partner to prepare to die for killing their father.

Kripke perks up at the news that Sheldon and Amy are no longer together.

Leonard gently warms Sheldon that Kripke may ask Amy out on a date.

Cue the glove slap.

Folding the toilet paper into a point and adding a breast feeding area are not doing the trick.

All Stuart has to do is stop being weird.

Cease and desist from telling women you picture them naked because you claim to be nervous.

And maybe get rid of the camera above the breast-feeding couch.

Across town, the guys take a load off at a sports bar.

If anyone questions their authenticity, they have the hand blisters to prove their athletic prowess.

Howard suggests that Sheldon try dating again.

After three sips of pumpkin ale, Sheldon is ready to find a new girlfriend.

Hes rejected by a pretty blond woman and her grandmother.

Note to self: Pokemon references should never be used in a pickup line unless youre at Comic Con.

Sheldon and Leonard return home and run into Amy and Bernadette leaving Pennys apartment.

A buzzed Sheldon reports to Amy that she should expect a date invitation from Barry Kripke at any moment.

The news that Sheldon is moving on crushes Amy.

Mayim Bialiks ability to crack her voice and hold back tears was heart breaking.

Her facial expression combined agony and strength.

Heres hoping that one day Amy will discover just how good Sheldon tastes after a fencing lesson.

Bring back The Shamy!

Theoretical Laughter:

Sheldon:You had me at flag and lost me at football.

Sheldon:When can I stab one of my friends?

Kripke:In fencing, its a touch.

Sheldon:Prepare yourself for a rigorous touching.

Penny:I told you things would change if you plucked your eyebrows.
