Cross it at your own peril.
362
00:14:08,260 --> 00:14:09,800
[QUIETLY]: Weirdo.
363
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:19,869
What was that?
364
00:14:19,870 --> 00:14:21,139
You heard me.
365
00:14:21,140 --> 00:14:24,740
Sir, I am a man with feelings.
366
00:14:25,820 --> 00:14:27,740
And you have hurt them.
367
00:14:30,220 --> 00:14:32,510
I know you've had a number of...
368
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,480
gentleman callers,
369
00:14:34,490 --> 00:14:37,089
but I've never heard you
speak like this before.
370
00:14:37,090 --> 00:14:38,560
"Gentleman callers"?
371
00:14:38,570 --> 00:14:40,289
And we wonder where Sheldon gets it.
372
00:14:40,290 --> 00:14:41,420
[LAUGHS]
373
00:14:41,430 --> 00:14:43,320
I'm sorry y'all find this funny,
374
00:14:43,330 --> 00:14:44,459
but this is the first time
375
00:14:44,460 --> 00:14:46,619
my mother's expressed
real interest in a man
376
00:14:46,620 --> 00:14:48,199
since Dad died.
377
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,130
Forgive me for wanting to know more.
378
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,200
You really want to know more?
379
00:14:54,670 --> 00:14:57,739
Imagine you're getting on in years,
380
00:14:57,740 --> 00:14:59,709
you and your husband about to retire,
381
00:14:59,710 --> 00:15:01,649
get a little timeshare in Sarasota,
382
00:15:01,650 --> 00:15:04,650
and... suddenly...
383
00:15:04,660 --> 00:15:06,789
he's gone,
384
00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:09,249
and you're all alone.
385
00:15:09,250 --> 00:15:11,750
You mourn, you cry,
386
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,320
but eventually you move on.
387
00:15:15,330 --> 00:15:17,459
You start dating a little,
388
00:15:17,460 --> 00:15:19,810
and it's all good fun.
389
00:15:19,820 --> 00:15:22,049
But always in the back of your mind,
390
00:15:22,050 --> 00:15:25,519
there's that question...
391
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,490
"Will I be alone in the end?"
392
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,609
[SNIFFLES]
393
00:15:35,610 --> 00:15:37,520
Why y'all looking at me for?
394

[SNIFFLING]
395
00:15:40,030 --> 00:15:41,819
Haven't slept in days.
396
00:15:41,820 --> 00:15:43,589
It's like I'm a lovesick teenager,
397
00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:47,019
except I remember the Truman
administration. [CHUCKLES]
398
00:15:47,020 --> 00:15:49,369
Your feelings are understandable.
399
00:15:49,370 --> 00:15:51,500
Connie is a remarkable woman.
400
00:15:51,510 --> 00:15:52,970
Yes, she is.
401
00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:55,429
But, again, I'm sorry. I should
never have called you weird.
402
00:15:55,430 --> 00:15:57,730
I mean, eh, it was rude.
403
00:15:57,740 --> 00:16:00,069
I've been called much worse.
404
00:16:00,070 --> 00:16:04,539
A professor once
called me ostrobogulous.
405
00:16:04,540 --> 00:16:05,949
I had to look that one up.
406
00:16:05,950 --> 00:16:07,200
What's it mean?
407
00:16:07,210 --> 00:16:08,740
That I'm a weirdo.
408
00:16:08,750 --> 00:16:09,909
[LAUGHS]
409
00:16:09,910 --> 00:16:12,309
John, you're a great guy.
410
00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:13,719
Well, you, too!
411
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,479
But I hope you understand, I just...
412
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,059
I can't give up on Connie.
413
00:16:17,060 --> 00:16:18,259
That's all right.
414
00:16:18,260 --> 00:16:19,559
To tell you the truth,
415
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,639
I'm finding the competition
quite exhilarating.
416
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,830
You are?
417
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,179
Oh, yes.
418
00:16:26,180 --> 00:16:28,619
The night the dinette set arrived,
419
00:16:28,620 --> 00:16:32,259
I did my first push-up in 40 years.
420
00:16:32,260 --> 00:16:34,039
[LAUGHS, SNORTS]
421
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,359
I'm sorry, but I find that to be, uh...
422
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,760
What's the word... Astro-boobulous?
423
00:16:38,770 --> 00:16:40,560
Ostrobogulous.
424
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:41,859
Ostrobogulous.
425
00:16:41,860 --> 00:16:43,969
Exactly.
426
00:16:43,970 --> 00:16:46,989
Now, give me your best price
427
00:16:46,990 --> 00:16:48,529
on one of these
428
00:16:48,530 --> 00:16:51,230
with a cup holder.
429
00:16:56,610 --> 00:16:59,719
John! What a pleasant surprise.
430
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,399
- I have some news for you.
- Oh?
431
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,190
- Mwah. What is that?
- Mwah.
432
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,200
I went to the furniture
store and spoke to Ira.
433
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,489
- Why would you do that?
- To demand
434
00:17:10,490 --> 00:17:13,229
that he respect your
wish to be left alone.
435
00:17:13,230 --> 00:17:17,709
John, it was not your place to do that.
436
00:17:17,710 --> 00:17:20,050
Well, if it helps,
437
00:17:20,060 --> 00:17:22,610
he doesn't plan on leaving you alone.
438
00:17:28,690 --> 00:17:32,119
What the hell were you thinking?!
439
00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:33,789
That I was being chivalrous.
440
00:17:33,790 --> 00:17:35,859
By going behind my back?
441
00:17:35,860 --> 00:17:38,159
You seem upset.
442
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,450
I am upset!
443
00:17:39,460 --> 00:17:42,759
And how I handle Ira is my business!
444
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,999
Well, I hope you do it gently.
445
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,010
He's very vulnerable these days.
446
00:17:47,020 --> 00:17:48,549
You're friends now?
447
00:17:48,550 --> 00:17:50,199
Well, I wouldn't say friends,
448
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,870
but I could see, over time,
449
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,840
- you know, we might...
- Are you two fighting?
450
00:17:55,810 --> 00:17:57,109
No.

00:17:57,110 --> 00:17:58,679
Oh, good. [CHUCKLES]
452
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,149
I was almost certain that we were.

00:18:01,150 --> 00:18:02,249
We are.
454
00:18:02,250 --> 00:18:03,829
- I'm confused.
- Me, too.
455
00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:05,819
Is this because you went
to the furniture store?
456
00:18:05,820 --> 00:18:06,989
He knows about this?
457
00:18:06,990 --> 00:18:08,490
- BOTH: Yes.
- All right, now, listen,
458
00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:10,889
if this relationship's
gonna have any chance at all,
459
00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:12,659
we have to lay down some ground rules.

00:18:12,660 --> 00:18:14,029
Great. I love rules.

00:18:14,030 --> 00:18:15,279
I do, too.

I don't want you talking
to him about anything
463
00:18:17,770 --> 00:18:19,099
having to do with anything about us.
464
00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:20,100
Same with you.
465
00:18:20,101 --> 00:18:21,239
And I want you to stop
466
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,169
spying on me with those binoculars
467
00:18:23,170 --> 00:18:25,439
like you're on some
kind of African safari.
468
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,199
And you cannot talk
469
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,869
to Ira or any of my
ex-boyfriends, for that matter.
470
00:18:30,870 --> 00:18:32,739
This list is getting long.
471
00:18:32,740 --> 00:18:34,349
Maybe we should write it down.

I could draw up a contract
