The Celebration Experimentation
Season 9, Episode 17 - Aired February 25, 2016

After more than nine years together, the gang finally celebrates Sheldon's birthday, surprising him with a special guest, on the 200th episode of The Big Bang Theory.

Quote from Penny

Penny: So what's going on?
Sheldon: I don't know. I looked around the room, and I saw all the faces and the presents, and it it was just too much.
Penny: I get that. Hey, you want to just bring a few people in here? You know, Wil Wheaton in the bathtub, Batman on the toilet. It'll be like the weirdest Comic-Con ever.

Quote from Leslie Winkle

Leslie Winkle: Uh, in the past, I would've said something obnoxious, like, "Happy birthday, dumbass". But I'm not gonna do it. You and I have both grown a lot, and it's just so nice to see you all again. So happy birthday, Sheldon.
Sheldon: Oh. Oh, now, you know I hate change. Say it.
Leslie Winkle: Happy birthday, dumbass!

Quote from Penny

Sheldon: I don't think I can go back out there.
Penny: That's fine. You know, I hate that your sister and her friends used to torture you. But what I hate even more is, if I was there, I would have tortured you, too.
Sheldon: Based on this pep talk, I'd say you're still doing it.
Penny: My point is, there was a time I never would've been friends with someone like you, and now you are one of my favorite people. So, if what you need is to spend your birthday in a bathroom, I'm happy to do it with you.
Sheldon: Well, everyone will think I'm weird.
Penny: Sweetie, you are weird. Everyone knows you're weird, but they're all still here because they care about you so much.

Quote from other character

Amy: We've got someone who couldn't be here but really wanted to wish you a happy birthday.
Stephen Hawking: Hello, Sheldon.
Sheldon: (gasps) Professor Hawking.
Stephen Hawking: Happy birthday to you.
Sheldon: Thank you so much. I can't believe you're-
Stephen Hawking: Happy birthday to you.
Sheldon: Oh, you're singing. Well, I'm sorry.
Stephen Hawking: Happy birthday, dear Sheldon.
Leonard: Uh, Professor Hawking, if you just give us one second, we'll light the candles, and we can all sing together.
Stephen Hawking: I was crushing it, but all right.

Quote from Raj

Raj: You know, Adam West is my favorite Batman? Well, after Michael Keaton, Christian Bale and Batman from The Lego Movie.
Howard: Don't say that to him.
Raj: What? He beat out George Clooney. And that's something. Like, I love me some Clooney.
Leonard: Don't say that to anyone.

Quote from Leonard

Leonard: Sheldon, we've been together so long, it's hard to remember a time you weren't in my life. And believe me, I try.
You make me laugh.
You make me a better scientist.
You make me crazy.
You're more than just my roommate, you're my brother.
Sheldon: Thank you.
Leonard: Happy birthday, buddy.

Quote from Howard

Bernadette: I can't think of anything to say that hasn't already been said. So, here's to you, Sheldon.
Raj: Hear, hear.
Sheldon: Thank you, Bernadette. That was perfect.
Howard: What? You gotta be kidding me?

Quote from other character

Howard: Really? You're ahead of Bale? The man who personified the words, "I'm Batman."
Adam West: I never had to say I'm Batman. I showed up. People knew I was Batman.
Everywhere I went. On the TV show, mall openings, Julie Newmar's bungalow.
Leonard: I'm sold- you're ahead of Bale.
Adam West: There's another reason I should be higher on the list. All those other guys had muscles built into their costumes. All I had in my Batsuit was 100%, grade-A West.

Quote from Stuart

Leonard: Maybe we could get Batman to actually show up.
Raj: You mean, some guy in a lame suit?
Leonard: Or a real Batman. Hey, Stuart? Didn't you try to get Adam West to do a signing here once?
Stuart: Yeah, but there was kind of a scheduling conflict. He, uh, wanted to know when he'd get paid. And I wouldn't tell him.

Quote from Beverly Hofstadter

Leonard: So, Mother, I'm surprised you came all this way for Sheldon's birthday.
Beverly Hofstadter: Oh, I was happy to. He did come to my 60th.
Leonard: Oh, you had a party for your 60th?
Beverly Hofstadter: Oh, I wouldn't call it a party. Just a few close friends. And your sister and brother.
Penny: You know, to be fair, we did get married in Vegas and didn't invite her.
Beverly Hofstadter: And I never did thank you for that, dear.

Quote from Wil Wheaton

Sheldon: Wil Wheaton, go.
Wil Wheaton: Sheldon, I know that we've had our ups and downs, but I can honestly say that my life is so much more interesting because you are in it. We may have met because you are a fan of Star Trek. But I have become a fan of Sheldon Cooper. Live long and prosper, buddy. And happy birthday.
Sheldon: That's how you do it, Wolowitz. Now you see why he's famous and you're not.

Quote from Penny

Penny: Sheldon, can I come in?
Sheldon: How do you know I'm not using the facilities?
Penny: Because you e-mail me your bathroom schedule once a week, even though I've clicked unsubscribe, like, a thousand times.

Quote from Stuart

Leonard: Can I get his contact info?
Stuart: Sure, uh, but just so you know, he's kind of a diva.
Leonard: He is?
Stuart: Oh, yeah. Won't take the bus. He won't pack his own lunch. Won't let you spend the night on his couch.

Quote from Barry Kripke

Barry Kripke: (Knocking) Hello! Some of us need to check our hair because we might have a shot with Leonard's mother.

Quote from Penny

Penny: Thank you so much for helping us, Stuart.
Stuart: Oh, I was just glad to be invited. To be honest, I don't always feel like I'm part of the group.
Penny: Okay, sweetie, we're on the clock here. Can you hate yourself and frost at the same time?

Quote from Leonard

Raj: Hey, so what was Adam West like on the phone?
Leonard: Uh, nice guy. But it was a little weird to hear Batman say, "Don't ring the doorbell or my poodles will go crazy."

Quote from Sheldon

Bernadette: What kind of cake do you like?
Sheldon: Well, my favorite is chocolate with strawberry frosting, three layers, and if there's writing on it, make sure it's not all caps. I don't need my dessert yelling at me.

Quote from Barry Kripke

Penny: Okay, everybody, Sheldon is gonna come back out, but I think he's a little embarrassed, so let's all be extra nice, okay?
Barry Kripke: What are you looking at me for? I'm a saint. (chuckles) But a sinner in the sack.

Quote from Sheldon

Amy: If I may, I'd like to propose a toast. Um, thank you all for coming tonight. I know it's customary for the birthday boy to receive presents, but I feel like I got the greatest gift the day he was born.
Everybody: Aww.
Raj: Hear, hear.
Sheldon: Amy, that was lovely. You know, this is fun. Let's do more. Someone else say something wonderful about me.

Quote from Beverly Hofstadter

Beverly Hofstadter: Sheldon, I know the future holds great things for you, and we all can't wait to see what they are. Happy birthday, dear.

Quote from Barry Kripke

Barry Kripke: Someone call Animal Control. There's a cougar on the loose.
Beverly Hofstadter: Barry, stop.
Leonard: Seriously, Barry, stop.

Quote from Sheldon

Penny: Yeah, what is the problem? Is it about getting older?
Sheldon: Please! Look at this porcelain skin. I'm like a human sink.

Quote from Leonard

Penny: Wait a minute. You mention his birthday and he vanishes?
Leonard: Well, where's that information been this whole time?

Quote from Leonard

Amy: So Sheldon, there's something I've been wanting to talk about but I know it's kind of a touchy subject.
Leonard: Way to narrow it down to everything.

Quote from Leonard

Leslie Winkle: Leonard. Hey, it's been a while.
Leonard: Leslie. I can't remember the last time we talked. So much has changed.
Leslie Winkle: Has it?
Leonard: Yeah, uh, um, Penny and I got married.
Leslie Winkle: Wow, congratulations. You know, actually, I thought you'd be living with Sheldon forever.
Leonard: Yeah, .... Well, don't be a stranger.

Quote from Sheldon

Penny: Okay, while they get the cake, Sheldon, I just want to say, I hope you didn't think you were gonna get through tonight without a hug.
Sheldon: You know, I used to hate these hugs. Now they're just extremely irritating.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: What is it?
Amy: Well, your birthday's coming up and you've never let us celebrate it. And I was hoping maybe this year we could.
Sheldon: Oh, I suppose that's a discussion we could have. (Sheldon runs back up the stairs)
Amy: Okay, great, I mean, it doesn't have to be a big party or anything. I was just - Where'd he go?

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Very well. You may celebrate my life by throwing a party with cake, presents and a shower of admiration and love. But then you owe me big-time.

Quote from other character

Adam West: Happy birthday, young man. And if any of you have enjoyed seeing me here today, I'm also available for Comic-Cons, bachelor parties, bar mitzvahs...

Quote from Howard

Leonard: Hey, uh, you know, he told a sad story about how his sister tricked him into thinking Batman was coming to his party.
Howard: That's funny. Let's do that.

Quote from Penny

Sheldon: I know that you worked hard to put this together. I'm sorry I'm ruining it.
Penny: Oh, pl- you're not ruining it. Look, at some point, Raj will try to get everyone to do the Electric Slide. Now, that will ruin it.

Quote from Penny

Penny: All right, what about music?
Sheldon: I enjoy marching bands and Tibetan throat singing.
Penny: No music it is.

Quote from Penny

Barry Kripke: Hello, I hope I'm not too early.
Bernadette: No, no, no. Come on in.
Barry Kripke: And how is the radiant mommy-to-be?
Bernadette: Doing great.
Stuart: You're pregnant?
Bernadette: Yeah.
Stuart: Sounds like something a member of the group might know.
Penny: Yeah, birthday party first. Pity party later.

Quote from Sheldon

Amy: Have to say, you you do look good in that suit.
Sheldon: Oh, thank you.
Amy: Maybe later I'll, uh, get to see you in your birthday suit.
Sheldon: But this is my birthday suit. Are you having a stroke? Because that's the kind of thing that just ruins a birthday party.

Quote from Penny

Sheldon: Thank you. That was wonderful.
Penny: Oh, wait, wait, wait. Stuart didn't get to speak.
Stuart: Oh, oh, okay. Um. Uh, Sheldon, I've spent most of my life feeling invisible, but having you and everyone-
Amy: Hey, everybody, listen up.
Penny: (To Stuart) You nailed it.

Quote from Sheldon

Howard: Sheldon, I don't think everyone-
Sheldon: Wolowitz, perfect. Everyone listen to Wolowitz.
Howard: Okay, then, uh, Sheldon, we've known each other a long time. And it is a pleasure to work with you and call you my friend.
Sheldon: Little generic. Keep thinking. We'll circle back.

Quote from Sheldon

Amy: Okay, so how do you feel about party balloons?
Sheldon: Uh, Mylar balloons, yes. Latex balloons, no. Water balloons, I will jump off the roof and aim for your car.

Quote from other character

Raj: Thank you! That's why I say Keaton's number one. He brought a sense of humor to the role.
Adam West: Oh, if you're gonna factor in a sense of humor, then I should be at the top of the list. It should be me, Keaton, Kilmer, Lego, Bale, and that pretty boy Clooney.

Quote from other character

Howard: Can we just all agree we're worried about Affleck?
Raj: Sure.
Leonard: Yeah, of course.
Adam West: What's an Affleck?

Quote from other character

Leonard: Ready when you are, Professor Hawking.
Stephen Hawking: And a one, and a two.
All: Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear Sheldon. Happy birthday to you. (to you.)

Quote from other character

(After Sheldon runs out of his party)
Adam West: I still get paid, don't I?

Quote from other character

Sheldon: Uh, um uh, thank you all so much for coming. Uh, Beverly. Wil Wheaton. Adam West, for some reason.
Leonard: Batman finally came to your party.
Adam West: Happy birthday, Sherman.

Quote from Leonard

Amy: But it's the one day a year that's just all about you.
Leonard: One day. (Laughs) Right.

Quote from Penny

Penny: You know, if you had a party now, you have plenty of friends that would love to come.
Leonard: And we live here, so we have no choice.
Penny: Yeah.

Quote from Amy

Amy: You realize none of those things would happen now?
Sheldon: I do, but why do you care if I celebrate my birthday at all?
Amy: Well, you made my last birthday so memorable, I wanted to return the favor.

Quote from Sheldon

Penny: Well, where is he?
Amy: Sheldon?
Leonard: I'll check his room.
Sheldon: Surprise!
Penny: Oh, my God!
Sheldon: Just one example of how birthdays can be terrible. Now, can we please drop this subject and pick a new one? Yeah, I suggest "how thick can a soup get before it becomes a stew?" You know, the answer, it may surprise you.

Quote from Sheldon

Amy: Can you please just tell me why?
Sheldon: Fine. As you know, I have a twin sister with whom I obviously share a birthday. Every year we'd have a party. No one I invited would ever come, because they didn't like me.
Amy: I'm sorry.
Sheldon: Oh, that part wasn't so bad. I didn't like them, either. But then I'd inevitably spend the whole day being tortured by my sister's friends.
Penny: Oh, you poor thing.
Sheldon: When I was six, they told me Batman was coming to my party. I waited by the door for hours. Closest thing to Batman I saw was when a robin flew into the window.

Quote from other character

Adam West: So, who's taking me home?

Quote from Sheldon

Raj: And it was Gandhi who said, "Live as if you were to die tomorrow. œLearn as if you were to live forever."
Sheldon: And it was Sheldon Cooper who said "Let's speed this up. A lot of people want to talk."

Quote from Amy

Sheldon: Is there a reason I had to leave my own apartment?
Amy: Well, I think they just want you to see it for the first time all decorated.
Sheldon: But who's gonna tell them they're doing it wrong?
Amy: Well, I'm sure they'll ask you to give a speech, and that's when you just tear 'em a new one.

Quote from Penny

Leonard: Okay, I'd better go in there and talk to him.
Amy: Well, don't you think I'm the one who should go in?
Leonard: No offense, but I've known the guy a really long time.
Amy: Well, I've, you know, seen him without pants on.
Leonard: Again, no offense, but so have I.
Amy: Well, he's seen me without pants on.
Leonard: Again, -
Penny: Okay, this is ridiculous.

Quote from Sheldon

Amy: Are you all right?
Sheldon: No, I just I got a little light-headed.
Amy: Oh, d-do you need a minute?
Sheldon: No. No, if I can walk past that pet shop with the parrot in the window, I suppose I can do this.

Quote from Leonard

Howard: You have any idea what you're getting Sheldon for his birthday?
Raj: He's been fascinated with dinosaurs lately. Maybe we could get him a fossil.
Leonard: Well, just don't get anything Jurassic. He feels like that whole chunk of time has gone Hollywood.

Quote from other character

Leonard: Are you crazy? How can you put Michael Keaton in front of Christian Bale?
Adam West: Oh, please. Even my poodles know Bale's overrated.
