Quotes from ‘The Locomotive Manipulation’
The Locomotive Manipulation Amy surprises Sheldon with a romantic weekend that even he can't say no to: a weekend trip to Napa Valley aboard a vintage train. Meanwhile, when Leonard and Penny spend Valentine's day caring for Raj's dog, the special day ends with a journey to the vet. |
Quote from Bernadette
Amy: I don't know what made me think tonight would be any different.
Bernadette: Well just the fact you got him up here says a lot. To be honest, I bet Howie $200 that it wasn't going to happen.
Howard: I'm going to the Lego Store to get a big-ass R2D2.
Bernadette: See, it's not just Sheldon, they're all idiots.
Howard: She's right.
Quote from Leonard
Leonard: I'm not sure it's a good idea to take Penny to where wine comes from.
Quote from Amy
Sheldon: What is your problem?
Amy: It's Valentine's day. We're supposed to be having a romantic weekend.
Sheldon: Oh, really? 'cause I remember you saying this trip was going to be something we could both enjoy. Did you mean that or were you just trying to trick me?
Amy: Fine, it's true. I deserve romance and I didn't know how else to make it happen.
Quote from Amy
Sheldon: The conductor said if I come back to the engine room, he'd show me how to take the train through a crossing.
Amy: Okay. Have fun.
Sheldon: Do you want to come with me?
Amy: Really? I do!
Quote from Howard
Amy: (About Sheldon) Why do I even try?
Bernadette: I'm going to fix this right now.
Howard: Okay, but just make it look like an accident.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: I made a new friend who likes trains as much as I do, I kissed Amy on the lips, and the conductor played his banjo for me.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: What are the sleeping arrangements? We've only been dating for three years. If we were to share a room people might talk.
Quote from Amy
Raj: I don't have (Valentine's) plans, which is why I booked time on the big telescope that night.
Amy: An evening looking at the stars, that's still kinda romantic.
Raj: Except I'd be alone.
Amy: I'm trying to put lipstick on a pig here. Work with me.
Quote from Sheldon
Leonard: Hang on, hang on. Are all those things equal to you?
Sheldon: Hmm, it never occurred to me to pick a favorite.
Leonard: Give it a go.
Sheldon: I can't answer that without collecting additional data.
Leonard: "Additional data", you dog!
Sheldon: I'm not sure how listening to other nine-fingered banjo players makes me a dog, but all right.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Well, my new friend's name was Eric, Amy's lips tasted like the brownie we had for dessert, and the banjo-playing conductor was missing a finger but made up for it with his can-do attitude.
Quote from Raj
Yvette: You're the owner?
Raj: Owner. Father. Soul mate. And, if anything happens to her, your (Leonard & Penny) worst nightmare!
Quote from Howard
Bernadette: So your boyfriend's a fixer-upper? Most of them are. I mean look at this guy. You think he came like this? When I met him he was a hot, goofy mess. Now, he's been to Space. That's all me!
Howard: I had a little to do with it.
Bernadette: Oh sure you did. Who's momma's big Space Man?
Howard: I am!
Quote from Raj
Raj: Oh my God, Cinnamon, are you okay? I can't believe you two (Leonard & Penny). (To the vet) You do whatever it takes to save her life. If she needs any new organs I'll buy any dog necessary and scrap them for parts!
Quote from Penny
Leonard: They've been in there for like half an hour.
Penny: Yeah, for future reference that's a while.
Quote from Leonard
Penny: Aw, jewelry. Oh my God, Lakers tickets!
Leonard: It gets better. Instead of me you can take someone who will actually enjoy it.
Penny: You are the best boyfriend ever.
Leonard: Seriously, please don't make me go.
Quote from Leonard
Leonard: Ooh, flowers and chocolates? Somebody's trying to get me out of my panties.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Wow, I'm feeling the urge to hug you. And 1, and 2. All right, Gollum, we're good.
Quote from Howard
Howard: You okay?
Amy: Why? Because my boyfriend's off playing choo choo with some weirdo.
Howard: Well, to be fair, they're both weirdos.
Quote from Raj
Raj: Cinnamon, she gave me her phone number! If I'd known it was that easy, I'd have considered poisoning you months ago.
Leonard: Thank you for all your help.
Penny: Sorry if you didn't think we were taking it seriously. We love animals.
Yvette: Oh, do you guys own any pets?
Penny: No.
Yvette: Good.
Quote from Penny
Raj: I'd like for at least one of us to see some action, so if you guys happen to have sex it's cool if she stays in the room.
Penny: Same goes for the two of you (Howard & Bernadette) with Amy.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: I'm prepared to say I love it, as soon as I confirm there are no hobos aboard.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Howard, what pocket watch will you be wearing for dinner on the train?
Howard: I'm sorry, what?
Sheldon: Well, I'm afraid if we wear the same pocket watch it will be embarrassing.
Howard: I don't own a pocketwatch.
Sheldon: Oh, my. Well my apologies for bringing up this sore spot.
Quote from Sheldon
Amy: Item 28 - Your Pet Name for me. Time is running out on this. You need to make a decision.
Sheldon: I submitted you a notarized list.
Amy: I'm sorry but "Gollum" and "Flakey" are not acceptable.
Sheldon: Well, you don't like Princess Corncob, you don't like Fester, you're just impossible to please.
Quote from Penny
Penny: Should we take this little party to the bedroom?
Leonard: We don't have to. We have the whole place to ourselves.
Penny: Oh, that's true.
Leonard: In fact, if you want, we can do it right here on Sheldon's spot.
Penny: That is the least sexy thing anyone's ever said to me.
Sheldon: How many trains have you been on?
Eric: Tons. A box fell on my head at UPS six years ago. Now I just collect disability and ride trains.
Sheldon: Wow. Your life's amazing.
Eric: Not always. A box fell on my head at UPS six years ago. Now I just collect disability and ride trains.
Quote from Penny
Penny: That would really piss me off if I didn't have a buzz going on.
Quote from Howard
Sheldon: In what world is a 4-4-6-4 a 4-10-4?
Howard: A world I don't want to live in. (To Bernadette) Seriously, I no longer I want to live in this world.
Quote from Penny
Penny: Don't be surprised if you find five chocolates missing and three gross coconut ones with a bite taken out. Came that way when I bought it.
Quote from Penny
Raj: Since you two are going to be around for Valentine's, would you mind watching Cinnamon?
Penny: You have Valentine's plans!? Which came out sounding way more surprised than I meant. Here, let me try that again. You have V..!? See, I can't do it.
Quote from Raj
Raj: I'll point out her name's Yvette and that she's a vet. That's hysterical! She'll love it.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Well, if you want romance then let's have romance. Oh look, there's wine. Mmm, grape juice that burns! Now let's gaze into each other's eyes. You blinked, I win.
Amy: Sheldon!
Sheldon: Let's see what's next. Oh, kissing's romantic.
*Sheldon kisses Amy*
Amy: That was nice.
Sheldon: Good.
