The Itchy Brain Simulation
Season 7, Episode 8 - Aired November 14, 2013

When a past mistake of Leonard's comes to light, he's surprised when Sheldon promises not to make a big deal out of it, instead making Leonard walk a mile in his shoes. Meanwhile, Penny embarrasses Raj when she confronts his ex-girlfriend, Lucy.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: If I take it off, Sheldon wins.
Penny: Sweetie, every night you don't kill him in his sleep, he wins.

Quote from Amy

Penny: If you guys were hungry, why didn't you order something at the restaurant?
Bernadette: We did. You never brought it.
Penny: Oh, that's right. Nachos and a turkey club.
Amy: Not even close.
Penny: Well, I was too busy standing up for my friend to worry about your ... I want to say salmon.
Amy: You want to say sorry.

Quote from Howard

Howard: So you can never take it (the sweater) off?
Leonard: No.
Raj: Not even to sleep?
Leonard: No.
Howard: So you're just an idiot?
Leonard: It's called proving a point.
Howard: Is the point you're an idiot?

Quote from Raj

Howard: The man impersonating a bear would like you to know that "Only you can prevent forest fires."
Raj: I don't get it.
Howard: You didn't have Smokey the Bear in India?
Raj: No. Was he anything like Munmun the Mongoose? He taught us not to play with cobras.
Howard: You had to be taught not to play with cobras?
Raj: You had to be taught not to burn down the forest?

Quote from Penny

Penny: I just wanna check her out because she hurt my friend. My Indian friend. Who's racist now?
Bernadette: You! Because you just called him your Indian friend.
Penny: Yeah, well ... you're short.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: (To Amy) Do you have any idea what it's like to wait for years and never know if you're finally going to get satisfaction?

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: It's great you're here. I'd love to get an engineer's opinion.
Howard: Sure.
Sheldon: This chair is squeaky. Now, do I fix it or get a new one?

Quote from Leonard

Leonard: Oh, I forgot about this (sweater). My aunt made it for me when I finished college.
Penny: Aww, did she hate you?
Leonard: Why because I got an ugly, itchy sweater and my brother got a car? No, I was her favorite!

Quote from other character

Penny: See, just now you expressed your feelings to my face. How come you could do that with me but not with Raj?
Lucy: I don't know your email.

Quote from Bernadette

Amy: Oh my gosh, that's the girl that broke Rajesh's heart.
Bernadette: That's Lucy?
Penny: I don't know why but I always pictured her as Indian.
Bernadette: I think that reason's called racism.

Quote from Bernadette

Raj: Can I tell her she looks nice?
Bernadette: Sure.
Raj: Can I tell her I miss her?
Bernadette: Maybe, if she asks.
Raj: Can I show her an oil painting I made of us surrounded by our children and grand-children.
Bernadette: I'd save that for the second date.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: Sheldon's being reasonable.
Penny: Yeah, it's freaking me out. I'm gonna go.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: I'll show you what's in the box if you promise not to flip out.
Sheldon: Why would I flip out? Is it a spider? Oh, oh, it's a spider?
Penny: No, if it were a spider, Lenny would have flipped out.

Quote from Raj

Raj: This is all your fault! I should have listened to MunMun, because I've been playing with a cobra and her name is Penny! Why are you so cruel? Do you enjoy my pain?
Penny: There's a girl at the cheesecake factory I can set you up with.
Raj: I LOVE YOU PENNY!

Quote from Leonard

Leonard: So when you say you're not going to flip out about the DVD, here's what that means. Don't fixate on it, or wake me up in the middle of the night, or nag me through the door while I'm on the toilet.

Quote from Raj

Lucy: I'm kinda seeing someone.
Raj: I think I know the answer to this, but just to be clear. It's not me, right?

Quote from Raj

Raj: What is wrong with you, Penny? You ruined any chance I had of getting back with Lucy. Now she knows I'm a desperate mess instead of being pretty sure.
Raj: *Checks his phone* It's Lucy. She wants to meet for coffee. I LOVE YOU PENNY!

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: First, talking to you while you're on the toilet isn't exactly a picnic for me either. Remember, when you can hear me, I can hear you.

Quote from Raj

Howard: He has so little self respect and is so desperate for the smallest crumb of affection, she could literally sleep with his own father in his own bed and post the video to YouTube, and he'd still buy her flowers and ask her to be his bride.
Raj: He's right. But in my defense, if we could survive that, we could survive anything.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: Look at me! *Pulls up his sweater to reveal a rash*
Penny: Oh my god. Is that sweater made of bees?

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Gentlemen, please. Leonard is trying to walk a mile in my metaphorical shoes. He can't walk in my actual shoes, he has the feet of a toddler.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: How are those nipples feeling, chief?
