1
00:00:02,335 --> 00:00:06,338
"That everyone who believes
may have eternal life in him.
2
00:00:06,373 --> 00:00:12,377
For God so loved the world that
he gave his one and only son."
3
00:00:12,412 --> 00:00:14,146
(whispers):
Here we go.
4
00:00:14,181 --> 00:00:16,615
(sighs) Yes, Sheldon?
5
00:00:16,650 --> 00:00:18,884
When you said God gave
his son to the world,
6
00:00:18,919 --> 00:00:21,019
did you mean Earth
or the universe?
7
00:00:21,054 --> 00:00:23,188
Earth.
8
00:00:23,223 --> 00:00:24,756
But if God created the universe,
9
00:00:24,791 --> 00:00:26,558
wouldn't he want
to save all of it?
10
00:00:26,593 --> 00:00:28,894
Yes, uh, he would.
11
00:00:28,929 --> 00:00:29,828
Then why did you say Earth?
12
00:00:29,863 --> 00:00:33,632
"Earth" is a synonym
for the universe.
13
00:00:33,667 --> 00:00:36,435
(quietly): He's
grabbing at straws now.
14
00:00:36,470 --> 00:00:38,503
So if God's plan is
to save all of the universe,
15
00:00:38,538 --> 00:00:41,306
that means a race of
octopus aliens light-years away
16
00:00:41,341 --> 00:00:43,041
could only be saved by Jesus?
17
00:00:43,076 --> 00:00:44,242
Sure.
18
00:00:44,277 --> 00:00:46,978
Even though they never
would've heard of him?
Yes.
19
00:00:47,013 --> 00:00:49,448
Even though his appearance
might be terrifying to them?
20
00:00:49,483 --> 00:00:51,416
W-Why would his appearance
be terrifying?
21
00:00:51,451 --> 00:00:52,851
He has four limbs
and they have eight.
22
00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:54,886
Okay, that's enough.
JEFF: No, no.
23
00:00:54,921 --> 00:00:57,022
I prayed people would be
more interested in my sermons.
24
00:00:57,057 --> 00:00:59,424
I suppose I should've been
more specific.
25
00:00:59,459 --> 00:01:01,593
Sheldon, if
these creatures
26
00:01:01,628 --> 00:01:05,163
were born without sin, they
don't need to be saved by Jesus.
27
00:01:05,198 --> 00:01:08,967
What if an octopus Adam and Eve
brought sin to their world?
28
00:01:09,002 --> 00:01:12,804
Would they be saved by a human
Jesus or an octopus Jesus?
29
00:01:12,839 --> 00:01:14,706
(sighs)
30
00:01:14,741 --> 00:01:16,808
(laughs)
31
00:01:16,843 --> 00:01:19,744
♪ Nobody else
is stronger than I am ♪
32
00:01:19,779 --> 00:01:22,614
♪ Yesterday I moved a mountain ♪
33
00:01:22,649 --> 00:01:25,317
♪ I bet I could be your hero ♪
34
00:01:25,352 --> 00:01:27,586
♪ I am a mighty little man ♪
35
00:01:27,621 --> 00:01:31,924
♪ I am a mighty little man. ♪
36
00:01:33,827 --> 00:01:37,028
And then I said octopus aliens
didn't need to become Christian
37
00:01:37,063 --> 00:01:39,297
because they're not affected
by original sin.
38
00:01:39,332 --> 00:01:43,101
You should've been there; Pastor
Jeff almost started crying.
39
00:01:43,136 --> 00:01:44,669
Oh, now I'm sorry
I missed it.
40
00:01:44,704 --> 00:01:46,705
That's your fault
for having a hangover.
41
00:01:46,740 --> 00:01:48,640
Or it's God's fault for
putting Sunday morning
42
00:01:48,675 --> 00:01:50,342
after Saturday night.
43
00:01:50,377 --> 00:01:52,911
(phone ringing)
44
00:01:52,946 --> 00:01:55,113
Meemaw, could you take me
to Radio Shack?
MARY: Hello?
45
00:01:55,148 --> 00:01:56,414
Sure, maybe later.
46
00:01:56,449 --> 00:01:57,616
Later's a little vague.
47
00:01:57,651 --> 00:01:59,251
Could you please
be more specific?
48
00:01:59,286 --> 00:02:01,586
When I'm good and ready.
How's that?
49
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:04,489
Better, but I'd really
like to nail this down.
50
00:02:04,524 --> 00:02:07,125
Why don't you ask
your father to take you?
51
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,594
Dad?
What?
52
00:02:09,629 --> 00:02:11,429
Can you please
take me to Radio Shack?
53
00:02:11,464 --> 00:02:13,165
I'm busy.
Ask your meemaw.
54
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,000
I did.
She said to ask you.
55
00:02:15,035 --> 00:02:16,067
Well, ask her again.
56
00:02:16,102 --> 00:02:18,403
Seems counterintuitive,
but all right.
57
00:02:18,438 --> 00:02:19,871
Meemaw?
58
00:02:19,906 --> 00:02:21,139
Oh, Lord.
59
00:02:21,174 --> 00:02:22,874
Everything okay?
60
00:02:22,909 --> 00:02:25,410
No.
61
00:02:25,445 --> 00:02:28,413
Stephanie Hanson's daughter was
in a car accident last night.
62
00:02:28,448 --> 00:02:29,447
She died.
63
00:02:29,482 --> 00:02:31,383
Oh, no.
64
00:02:31,418 --> 00:02:33,518
My God.
65
00:02:33,553 --> 00:02:35,820
She was barely 16.
66
00:02:35,855 --> 00:02:37,689
GEORGE SR.:
That's horrible.
67
00:02:37,724 --> 00:02:40,292
Is there anything we can do?
68
00:02:40,327 --> 00:02:41,993
I don't know.
69
00:02:42,028 --> 00:02:43,361
Um... ugh.
70
00:02:43,396 --> 00:02:45,230
I need to call
folks at the church.
71
00:02:45,265 --> 00:02:47,666
(Mary sighs)
72
00:02:47,701 --> 00:02:50,402
Any more thoughts
on Radio Shack?
73
00:02:50,437 --> 00:02:53,004
Sheldon, do you
really think
74
00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:56,474
this is the appropriate
time to ask that question?
75
00:02:56,509 --> 00:02:59,678
I did, but now
I'm second-guessing myself.
76
00:03:08,755 --> 00:03:10,922
How you holding up?
77
00:03:10,957 --> 00:03:13,458
I'm okay.
78
00:03:13,493 --> 00:03:15,193
(clears throat)
79
00:03:15,228 --> 00:03:19,097
16 years old.
80
00:03:19,132 --> 00:03:20,899
It's just awful.
81
00:03:20,934 --> 00:03:24,636
It's all part of God's plan.
82
00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:33,278
(TV playing quietly)
83
00:03:33,313 --> 00:03:36,381
How come we don't get
to go to the funeral?
84
00:03:36,416 --> 00:03:39,384
Why would you want
to go to a funeral?
85
00:03:39,419 --> 00:03:41,253
I've never been to one.
86
00:03:41,288 --> 00:03:43,255
When you get to be my age,
you get to go to plenty.
87
00:03:43,290 --> 00:03:45,557
That's, like,
a hundred years from now.
88
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:48,593
You make it hard to love you.
89
00:03:48,628 --> 00:03:51,229
Do you really see a dead body?
90
00:03:51,264 --> 00:03:52,631
Sometimes.
91
00:03:52,666 --> 00:03:54,366
How close do
you get to it?
92
00:03:54,401 --> 00:03:57,235
Real close, if you want.
93
00:03:57,270 --> 00:03:58,637
And the clothes they're wearing,
94
00:03:58,672 --> 00:04:00,772
is that the clothes
they become a ghost in?
95
00:04:00,807 --> 00:04:02,307
Depends. In the movie Ghost,
96
00:04:02,342 --> 00:04:05,243
Patrick Swayze has on
the outfit that he dies in.
97
00:04:05,278 --> 00:04:07,579
Casper runs around butt naked.
98
00:04:07,614 --> 00:04:09,481
Maybe he died naked.
99
00:04:09,516 --> 00:04:12,384
That's fun to think about.
100
00:04:12,419 --> 00:04:15,621
And y'all wonder why
you're not at the funeral.
101
00:04:21,294 --> 00:04:22,961
Good morning, Peg.
102
00:04:22,996 --> 00:04:27,198
Well, it will be once this cup
of Sanka works its magic.
103
00:04:27,233 --> 00:04:28,199
Is Pastor available?
104
00:04:28,234 --> 00:04:30,535
Oh, he's on the phone
with his wife.
105
00:04:30,570 --> 00:04:31,936
Oh, should I come back?
Nah.
106
00:04:31,971 --> 00:04:34,706
He usually gets his groveling
done pretty quick.
107
00:04:36,376 --> 00:04:41,446
So... that little Hanson girl,
that was horrible, huh?
108
00:04:41,481 --> 00:04:43,448
Yeah.
109
00:04:43,483 --> 00:04:46,618
Reminds you that...
110
00:04:46,653 --> 00:04:48,353
life is precious.
111
00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,622
(coughing loudly)
112
00:04:54,260 --> 00:04:56,227
You're up, slugger.
113
00:04:56,262 --> 00:04:58,096
(coughing continues)
114
00:04:58,131 --> 00:04:59,564
JEFF:
Come in.
115
00:04:59,599 --> 00:05:00,965
(whoops)
116
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,669
I have the clothing drive flyers
if you'd like to take a look.
117
00:05:04,704 --> 00:05:06,571
Thank you.
118
00:05:08,141 --> 00:05:09,641
You all right, Mare?
119
00:05:09,676 --> 00:05:11,243
(sighs)
120
00:05:15,348 --> 00:05:16,915
No, not really.
121
00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:21,453
Um... I can't stop thinking
about that little girl.
122
00:05:21,488 --> 00:05:23,922
I understand.
123
00:05:23,957 --> 00:05:25,924
That's why it's important
in these times
124
00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:28,160
to take comfort in our faith.
125
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:33,865
What if that's
not doing the trick?
126
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:37,135
Events like this can
certainly create doubt.
127
00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:40,171
It happens to me more often
than I'd like to admit.
128
00:05:40,206 --> 00:05:43,208
What do you do?
129
00:05:43,243 --> 00:05:49,180
I roll up my sleeves and I work
even harder at serving our Lord.
130
00:05:49,215 --> 00:05:52,016
Mary, we each have
a relationship with God,
131
00:05:52,051 --> 00:05:54,052
and relationships
take work.
132
00:05:54,087 --> 00:05:55,019
Get out there.
133
00:05:55,054 --> 00:05:58,022
Help the needy,
start a Bible study,
134
00:05:58,057 --> 00:06:01,292
hug a stranger and tell 'em
the Lord loves 'em. (chuckles)
135
00:06:01,327 --> 00:06:05,563
But not a child;
that backfires on you, big-time.
136
00:06:05,598 --> 00:06:08,366
Thank you, Pastor Jeff.
137
00:06:08,401 --> 00:06:10,035
You are most welcome.
138
00:06:11,137 --> 00:06:12,937
Oh, and tell Sheldon
139
00:06:12,972 --> 00:06:15,073
I spoke to
my seminary professor,
140
00:06:15,108 --> 00:06:16,641
and the official ruling is:
141
00:06:16,676 --> 00:06:19,844
God would appear to the octopus
aliens in octopus alien form
142
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:21,746
and save their
eight-legged souls.
143
00:06:21,781 --> 00:06:23,248
Praise Jesus!
144
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:26,618
(chuckles)
145
00:06:26,653 --> 00:06:28,286
(Peg coughing)
146
00:06:28,321 --> 00:06:29,387
(door closes)
147
00:06:29,422 --> 00:06:31,957
I should put that in a sermon.
148
00:06:37,063 --> 00:06:39,197
Hold on, hold on.
Thank you, God,
149
00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:41,332
for this food we are about to
receive and for the nourishment
150
00:06:41,367 --> 00:06:44,869
of our bodies, and bless the
hands that prepared it. Amen.
151
00:06:44,904 --> 00:06:48,039
We're doing this
at breakfast now?
152
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:49,541
Yes, I think it's a nice idea.
153
00:06:49,576 --> 00:06:51,075
She's eating Count Chocula.
154
00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:53,111
Doesn't he play
for the other side?
155
00:06:53,146 --> 00:06:55,981
I'm so glad God blessed you
with a sense of humor, George.
156
00:06:58,151 --> 00:07:00,952
Mom, have you received any
distressing phone calls today?
157
00:07:00,987 --> 00:07:01,920
No. Why?
158
00:07:01,955 --> 00:07:03,354
Just wondering if
it's an appropriate time
159
00:07:03,389 --> 00:07:05,657
to ask if you could take me
to Radio Shack.
160
00:07:05,692 --> 00:07:08,026
Sorry, sweetheart,
I can't today.
161
00:07:08,061 --> 00:07:09,994
I have to bring this food
over to the Hanson family.
162
00:07:10,029 --> 00:07:11,696
Then I have my new prayer group.
163
00:07:11,731 --> 00:07:13,198
And after that,
I'm gonna get started
164
00:07:13,233 --> 00:07:15,333
on a faith garden
in the backyard.
165
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:17,569
A faith garden?
What the hell is that?
166
00:07:17,604 --> 00:07:19,370
Language.
167
00:07:19,405 --> 00:07:21,372
It's an outdoorsy place
for me to speak to God.
168
00:07:21,407 --> 00:07:24,108
Don't you already
speak to him indoorsy?
169
00:07:24,143 --> 00:07:25,710
Yes, but in the backyard,
170
00:07:25,745 --> 00:07:27,812
I can enjoy the beautiful world
he gave us.
171
00:07:27,847 --> 00:07:30,615
You can also smell the
Sparks' chicken coop.
172
00:07:30,650 --> 00:07:32,150
Well, I think it sounds nice.
173
00:07:32,185 --> 00:07:33,518
Thank you. I'm gonna
need your truck
174
00:07:33,553 --> 00:07:35,987
to get all the dirt and
flowers and tools that I need.
175
00:07:36,022 --> 00:07:37,989
Sure.
Oh, oh, almost forgot.
176
00:07:38,024 --> 00:07:40,525
Can you keep an eye out
for a rock big enough
177
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,293
to paint a Psalm on?
178
00:07:42,328 --> 00:07:43,761
I can do that.
179
00:07:43,796 --> 00:07:44,762
Wish me luck!
180
00:07:44,797 --> 00:07:45,897
Luck!

Mm-hmm! (chuckles)
182
00:07:48,701 --> 00:07:50,034
Is Mom okay?
183
00:07:50,069 --> 00:07:51,669
How the heck should I know?
184
00:07:51,704 --> 00:07:54,039
She left. You can say "hell."
185
00:08:00,113 --> 00:08:02,247
MARY: ...our hearts
and stir us to action.
186
00:08:02,282 --> 00:08:03,581
ADULT SHELDON:
If my mother's faith was
187
00:08:03,616 --> 00:08:06,150
the Starship Enterprise,
over the next week,
188
00:08:06,185 --> 00:08:08,353
she achieved warp factor 9.
189
00:08:08,388 --> 00:08:09,787
I can't hear you!
190
00:08:09,822 --> 00:08:11,155

Amen!
191
00:08:11,190 --> 00:08:12,891

00:08:12,926 --> 00:08:15,226

(laughter)
194
00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:19,063
Despite his concerns
over her sanity,
195
00:08:19,098 --> 00:08:21,733
my dad found a rock
worthy of her faith garden.
196
00:08:21,768 --> 00:08:22,767
Ooh, right over there.
197
00:08:22,802 --> 00:08:24,769

Mm-hmm.

Honey, it's a rock.

Georgie, you've heard us
talking to Sheldon
229
00:10:02,735 --> 00:10:05,737
about asking questions at
inappropriate times, right?
230
00:10:05,772 --> 00:10:07,105
Yeah, so?
231
00:10:07,140 --> 00:10:08,840
So, given what's
happened this week,
232
00:10:08,875 --> 00:10:10,174
do you think
it's an appropriate time
233
00:10:10,209 --> 00:10:11,309
to be talking about driving?
234
00:10:11,344 --> 00:10:14,579
Why? 'Cause that girl died?
235
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:17,415
(sighs)
Yes, that.
236
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:19,751
For your information,
I'd be an excellent driver.
237
00:10:19,786 --> 00:10:23,154
(chuckles): I wouldn't trust you
to push a shopping cart.
238
00:10:23,189 --> 00:10:25,056
Would you feel more
confident if I told you
239
00:10:25,091 --> 00:10:26,557
I already know
how to drive?
240
00:10:26,592 --> 00:10:29,527
Video games don't count.
I'll have you know
241
00:10:29,562 --> 00:10:31,195
I've driven Meemaw's car.
242
00:10:31,230 --> 00:10:34,466
I also drove your truck one
night while you were sleeping.
243
00:10:35,568 --> 00:10:37,201
Are you crazy?!
244
00:10:37,236 --> 00:10:39,904
I parked it and everything,
you had no idea.

00:10:41,808 --> 00:10:43,908
Okay, let...
246
00:10:43,943 --> 00:10:45,209
let me get this straight--
247
00:10:45,244 --> 00:10:47,645
you're trying to prove to me
that you're a responsible person
248
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:49,580
by admitting you stole my truck.
249
00:10:49,615 --> 00:10:53,485
I said I was responsible,
never said I was smart.

Let's go out.

00:11:01,060 --> 00:11:03,361
Go out where?
I don't know,
254
00:11:03,396 --> 00:11:07,031
Dairy Queen, shooting range,
line dancing?
255
00:11:07,066 --> 00:11:09,200
Have you been drinking?
256
00:11:09,235 --> 00:11:12,670
I might've had a wine cooler
or two. (laughs)
257
00:11:12,705 --> 00:11:15,506

Honey, he does that to get tips.
261
00:11:29,322 --> 00:11:31,622
He asked me for mine, too.

used to come here

Is that so?
274
00:11:58,151 --> 00:11:59,650
He kissed me right over there
in that booth.
275
00:11:59,685 --> 00:12:02,554
Why, was there some
barbecue sauce on your face?
276
00:12:03,623 --> 00:12:04,555
It's a fat joke.
277
00:12:04,590 --> 00:12:07,725

Where is she?
282
00:12:15,968 --> 00:12:16,934
She's with your
grandmother.
283
00:12:16,969 --> 00:12:18,302
Where'd they go?
I don't know.
284
00:12:18,337 --> 00:12:20,872
Why don't you know?
Because I'm here with you!

Mom also does
the good night dance.
293
00:12:45,464 --> 00:12:48,499
Now you're just screwing
with me.
294
00:12:48,534 --> 00:12:51,068
Night.
295
00:12:51,103 --> 00:12:54,005
You should've gone with
"sings us a lullaby."
296
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,407
Yeah, I got cocky.
297
00:12:56,442 --> 00:13:00,278
Slow down there, sister,
you got church in the morning.
298
00:13:00,313 --> 00:13:02,079
Who says I'm going?
299
00:13:02,114 --> 00:13:05,750
What is happening with you?
300
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:08,787
Do you really want to know?
301
00:13:13,593 --> 00:13:18,029
So, the other day
I was making a casserole
302
00:13:18,064 --> 00:13:20,064
to bring over to the Hansons,
303
00:13:20,099 --> 00:13:22,934
and I wanted to include
a sympathy card.
304
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:26,671
So I started to write,
305
00:13:26,706 --> 00:13:29,774
"Your daughter's
in a better place."
306
00:13:31,644 --> 00:13:34,646
(voice breaking):
And I had to stop.
307
00:13:40,620 --> 00:13:45,323
Because how could that
possibly be true?
308
00:13:45,358 --> 00:13:47,558
How could a better place
be anywhere
309
00:13:47,593 --> 00:13:51,262
than at home safe
with her family?
310
00:13:52,531 --> 00:13:54,832
She was just a little kid.
311
00:13:54,867 --> 00:13:57,335
That could've...
312
00:13:57,370 --> 00:14:00,538
been Georgie behind the wheel.
313
00:14:06,078 --> 00:14:10,348
How could that possibly
be God's plan?
314
00:14:12,285 --> 00:14:15,453
Looks like you could use
a shoulder to cry on.
315
00:14:15,488 --> 00:14:16,888
(sighs)
316
00:14:16,923 --> 00:14:20,057
No, she does not need
a shoulder to cry on,
317
00:14:20,092 --> 00:14:23,094
but I do need a place to
store my pool stick.
318
00:14:23,129 --> 00:14:25,930
Maybe I'd like that.
(laughs)
319
00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:28,433
Get.

00:14:30,770 --> 00:14:32,804

00:14:35,041 --> 00:14:36,240
What the hell?
322
00:14:36,275 --> 00:14:39,076
Your problem now.
323
00:14:39,111 --> 00:14:40,544
Ooh.
Watch it.
324
00:14:40,579 --> 00:14:41,679
Here.
(clears throat)
325
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:43,114
What am I supposed to do
with her?
326
00:14:43,149 --> 00:14:44,882
I don't know.
But be careful.
327
00:14:44,917 --> 00:14:46,117
Last time she was this drunk,
328
00:14:46,152 --> 00:14:47,619
you ended up with
your first son.
329
00:14:48,921 --> 00:14:50,121
Night.
330
00:14:50,156 --> 00:14:53,324
He's not that fat, Mom!
331
00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:04,402
Now you're cooking breakfast
for us?
332
00:15:04,437 --> 00:15:05,870
Your mom's not
feeling well.
333
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:07,605
Is she contagious?
No.
334
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:08,873
Just tired.
335
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:10,975
Did you check her for ticks?
336
00:15:11,010 --> 00:15:12,977
Soon as she wakes up.
337
00:15:13,012 --> 00:15:14,512
You can check her
while she's asleep.
338
00:15:14,547 --> 00:15:15,446
Sit down!
339
00:15:18,884 --> 00:15:20,418
Do you even know how to cook?
340
00:15:20,453 --> 00:15:23,688
Believe it or not, I am capable
of making breakfast.
341
00:15:23,723 --> 00:15:26,524
Sorry. It's not like we see you
do much around here.
342
00:15:26,559 --> 00:15:28,893
How 'bout,
"Thanks for cooking, Dad"?
343
00:15:28,928 --> 00:15:32,363
Chocolate chips?
Thanks for cooking, Dad.
344
00:15:33,666 --> 00:15:35,266
Is Mom going to church?
345
00:15:35,301 --> 00:15:37,301
I don't think she's up to it.
346
00:15:37,336 --> 00:15:40,204
But she never misses church.
347
00:15:45,344 --> 00:15:47,511
Are you feeling better?
348
00:15:47,546 --> 00:15:49,447
Yes, baby, I'm fine.
349
00:15:49,482 --> 00:15:52,450
GEORGE SR.:
All right, here we go.
350
00:15:52,485 --> 00:15:54,919
Chocolate chips for breakfast
and pizza for dinner?
351
00:15:54,954 --> 00:15:56,220
I'm loving Dad.
352
00:15:56,255 --> 00:15:59,190
Where were you last night?
353
00:15:59,225 --> 00:16:00,758
Out with your grandmother.
354
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:01,659
But where'd you go?
355
00:16:01,694 --> 00:16:03,794
Enough questions.
Y'all ask me questions
356
00:16:03,829 --> 00:16:05,329
when I come home late.
357
00:16:05,364 --> 00:16:08,399
Oh, I can explain that-- you're
an idiot and we don't trust you.
358
00:16:08,434 --> 00:16:10,935
(sighs)
359
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,970
Mom, you didn't say grace.
360
00:16:13,005 --> 00:16:16,274
Don't worry about it.
361
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:19,577
Come on, y'all.
362
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:24,382
(sighs)
363
00:16:26,752 --> 00:16:27,885
Can I sit with you?
364
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,822
I think Mommy needs to
be alone right now.
365
00:16:31,857 --> 00:16:33,825
All right.
366
00:16:39,098 --> 00:16:41,866
(sighs)
367
00:16:41,901 --> 00:16:44,468
Mom, I'm scared.
368
00:16:44,503 --> 00:16:45,536
Why?
369
00:16:45,571 --> 00:16:48,506
You didn't go to church,
you stopped saying grace.
370
00:16:48,541 --> 00:16:50,941
I don't understand
what's going on.
371
00:16:50,976 --> 00:16:53,978
(sighs)
372
00:16:54,013 --> 00:16:55,846
It's kind of hard to explain.
373
00:16:55,881 --> 00:16:58,382
Is it me?
374
00:16:58,417 --> 00:16:59,950
Did I do something wrong?
375
00:16:59,985 --> 00:17:01,886
Of course not.
376
00:17:01,921 --> 00:17:03,587
(pats seat)
Come here.
377
00:17:03,622 --> 00:17:06,824
(sighs)
378
00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:11,195
Sheldon... (sighs)
379
00:17:11,230 --> 00:17:13,397
faith means believing
in something
380
00:17:13,432 --> 00:17:17,134
you can't know
for sure is real.
381
00:17:17,169 --> 00:17:19,236
(sighs)
382
00:17:19,271 --> 00:17:23,641
And right now,
I am struggling with that.
383
00:17:23,676 --> 00:17:26,410
So you don't believe
in God anymore?
384
00:17:26,445 --> 00:17:30,381
That isn't something for you
to worry about.
385
00:17:30,416 --> 00:17:32,083
I need to
figure this out myself.
386
00:17:32,118 --> 00:17:35,386
Can I help? Maybe I could
provide a fresh perspective.
387
00:17:35,421 --> 00:17:38,322
I don't think so, baby.
388
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:45,396
SHELDON:
Did you know that if gravity
389
00:17:45,431 --> 00:17:46,730
were slightly
more powerful,
390
00:17:46,765 --> 00:17:49,066
the universe would
collapse into a ball?
391
00:17:49,101 --> 00:17:50,968
I did not.
392
00:17:51,003 --> 00:17:55,206
Also, if gravity were
slightly less powerful,
393
00:17:55,241 --> 00:17:56,841
the universe would
fly apart
394
00:17:56,876 --> 00:17:59,310
and there would be
no stars or planets.
395
00:17:59,345 --> 00:18:01,745
Where you going
with this, Sheldon?
396
00:18:01,780 --> 00:18:04,782
It's just that gravity
is precisely as strong
397
00:18:04,817 --> 00:18:05,983
as it needs to be.
398
00:18:06,018 --> 00:18:09,186
And if the ratio of the
electromagnetic force
399
00:18:09,221 --> 00:18:11,055
to the strong force
wasn't one percent,
400
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:12,590
life wouldn't exist.
401
00:18:12,625 --> 00:18:14,825
What are the odds that
would happen all by itself?
402
00:18:14,860 --> 00:18:19,029
Why are you trying to
convince me to believe in God?
403
00:18:19,064 --> 00:18:20,764
You don't believe in God.
404
00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:22,833
I don't, but the precision
of the universe
405
00:18:22,868 --> 00:18:26,103
at least makes it logical to
conclude there's a creator.
406
00:18:26,138 --> 00:18:28,906
(sighs)
407
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:35,079
Baby, I appreciate what you're
trying to do, but...
408
00:18:35,114 --> 00:18:37,281
logic is here.
409
00:18:37,316 --> 00:18:40,651
And my problem is here.
410
00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:46,357
Well, there are 5 billion
people on this planet
411
00:18:46,392 --> 00:18:49,360
and you're the
perfect mom for me.
412
00:18:49,395 --> 00:18:51,729
What are the odds of that?
413
00:18:57,736 --> 00:19:00,171
Oh.
414
00:19:00,206 --> 00:19:04,308
Thank you, Lord,
for this little boy.
415
00:19:04,343 --> 00:19:08,379
I knew I could fix it.
(laughs)
416
00:19:08,414 --> 00:19:12,082
Maybe it was you
and the Lord.
417
00:19:12,117 --> 00:19:14,185
ADULT SHELDON:
I don't like sharing credit,
418
00:19:14,220 --> 00:19:16,787
but I knew in that moment
it wasn't the appropriate time
419
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:18,689
to say it.
420
00:19:27,066 --> 00:19:30,634
And Jacob said: "For I have
seen God face to face,
421
00:19:30,669 --> 00:19:32,836
and my life is preserved."
422
00:19:32,871 --> 00:19:35,306
(whispering): Is this
an appropriate time to mention
423
00:19:35,341 --> 00:19:36,407
that John 1:18 says,
424
00:19:36,442 --> 00:19:37,841
"No man hath seen God
425
00:19:37,876 --> 00:19:40,578
at any time."
Who's right?
426
00:19:40,613 --> 00:19:41,745
Jacob or John?
427
00:19:41,780 --> 00:19:44,715
Let's talk about it
in the car.
428
00:19:44,750 --> 00:19:46,150
JEFF:
...the Lord.
429
00:19:46,185 --> 00:19:47,184
Yes, Connie?
430
00:19:47,219 --> 00:19:49,019
My grandson has a question.
431
00:19:49,054 --> 00:19:50,621
(sighs)
432
00:19:50,656 --> 00:19:52,823
Let 'er rip, kid.
