The Jerusalem Duality
Season 1, Episode 12 - Aired April 14, 2008

Sheldon is rattled when a 15-year-old physics prodigy, Dennis Kim, visits the university. Sheldon loses faith in his own work in the presence of the boy genius, so he decides to leave theoretical physics behind and focus on obtaining the Nobel Peace Prize. Concerned by Sheldon's career turn, the guys seek to derail Dennis Kim's progress.

Quote from Sheldon

Dr. Gablehauser: Mr Kim was not only the valedictorian at Stamford University, he is also the youngest recipient of the prestigious Stephenson Award.
Sheldon: Youngest till the cyborgs rise up!

Quote from Leonard

Raj: Okay, uh, how about her?
Leonard: Sure. If he wants to spend a couple of years doing her homework while she drinks herself into a stupor with non-fat White Russians, while you're the one holding her head out of the toilet while she's puking and telling you she wishes more guys were like you, and they she gets into Cornell because you wrote her essay for her, and you drive up to visit her one weekend and she acts like she doesn't even know you.

Quote from other character

Dennis Kim: It's startling to me you haven't considered a Lorentz invariant field theory approach.
Sheldon: You think I haven't considered it? You really think I haven't considered it?
Dennis Kim: Have you considered it?
Sheldon: Get him out Leonard.
Leonard: Come on, Dennis, I'll show you the radiation lab.
Dennis Kim: Wow, you won the Stephenson award.
Sheldon: Yes, in fact I am the youngest person ever to win it.
Dennis Kim: Really, how old?
Sheldon: Fourteen and a half.
Dennis Kim: You were the youngest person ever to win it.

Quote from Leonard

Dr. Gablehauser: Gentlemen, I'd like you to meet Dennis Kim. Dennis is a highly sought after doctorial candidate and we're hoping to have him do his graduate work here.
Leonard: Graduate work, very impressive.
Dr. Gablehauser: And he's only fifteen years old.
Sheldon: Not bad, I myself started graduate school at fourteen.
Dennis Kim: Well, I lost a year while my family was tunneling out of North Korea.
Leonard: Advantage Kim.

Quote from Howard

Howard: You know, Sheldon, you don't have so many friends that you can afford to start insulting them.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: Well, what are you going to do, Sheldon, give up?
Sheldon: Yes. That's what a rational person does when his entire life's work is invalidated by a post-pubescent Asian wunderkind. He ceases his fruitless efforts, he donates his body to scientific research, and he waits to die.
Penny: You know, I'm confused again. Is he waiting, or do we get to shoot him between the eyes?

Quote from Sheldon

Howard: Sheldon.
Sheldon: Yes.
Howard: Go away.
Sheldon: Did Leonard tell you to say that?
Howard: No, I thought of it all by myself.
Sheldon: Huh. It can't be a coincidence. There must be some causal link I'm missing.

Quote from Sheldon

Raj: Go away!
Sheldon: Curiouser and curiouser.

Quote from Leonard

Howard: (Entering the apartment) Is he here?
Leonard: If he were, I wouldn't be.

Quote from Leonard

Leonard: He'll never be able to cope with the fact that some fifteen year-old kid is smarter and more accomplished than he is.
Raj: Well, what if something were to happen to this boy so he was no longer a threat to Sheldon?
Howard: Then our problem would be solved.
Leonard: Hang on, are we talking about murdering Dennis Kim? ... I'm not saying no.

Quote from Howard

Howard: The only thing we need to do is make this Kim kid lose his focus.
Leonard: That won't happen, he's not interested in anything but physics.
Howard: What about biology?
Leonard: What?
Howard: You know, biology? The one thing that can completely derail a world class mind.

Quote from Howard

Leonard: Howard, he's fifteen.
Howard: Yeah, so, when I was fifteen I met Denise Palmeri and my grade point average fell from a 5.0 to a 1.8.
Raj: She was sleeping with you?
Howard: No, I just wasted a lot of time thinking about what it would be like if she did.

Quote from Raj

Penny: (Opening her apartment door) Oh, hey guys, what's up?
Howard: We need a hot fifteen year-old Asian girl with a thing for smart guys.
Penny: What?
Leonard: Howard, that's racist. Any fifteen year-old girl will do the trick. (Penny slams the door.)
Raj: It's possible she may have misunderstood us.

Quote from Raj

Dr. Gablehauser: Why are all these young women here?
Leonard: It's take your daughter to work day.
Dr. Gablehauser:: Really? I was not aware of that.
Raj: Oh, yes. There was a very official email that was sent to everyone whose insurance files indicated they had daughters between the ages of 14 and 16.
