Quotes 

• [Leonard, Sheldon, Raj, and Howard climb the stairs of the apartment building all still holding the ring] 

  Howard Wolowitz : You know, there comes a point where this becomes idiotic.

  Leonard Hofstadter : It wasn't when we were driving like this?

• Howard Wolowitz : So, Sheldon. How's it feel to be beaten up by a girl?

  Sheldon Cooper : It's not the first time. I have a twin sister whose assaults began in utero. If only I'd had the presence of mind to re-absorb her. Then I'd have a mole with hair in it, instead of a tedious yearly Christmas letter.

• [rummaging through the junk they bought at a yard sale, Raj comes across an Aquaman action figure] 

  Howard Wolowitz : It looks like someone drew a penis on him.

  Raj Koothrappali : That will come off.

  [licking his thumb, Raj begins to vigorously rub the action figure's crotch] 

  Howard Wolowitz : You see what you're doing? Stop that.

• Penny : Okay, just to be clear, the first piece of jewelry my boyfriend gives me is a prop from a movie and I don't even get to keep it?

  Howard Wolowitz : If you had gone out with me three years ago, by now you'd have my great-aunt Ida's brooch that she smuggled out of occupied Belgium in a cat.

  Leonard Hofstadter : How am I looking now?

• Howard Wolowitz : Look at the markings inside. Those are production markings. nine rings were made for use in the Lord of the Rings movies; three were given to members of the cast; the rest were destroyed. Except one. One was stolen. Gentlemen, this *is* the One Ring.

• Sheldon Cooper : We can't sell it. We have to keep it and love it and polish it and only take it out occasionally when we go to the park and re-enact our favorite scenes form the movies.

  Howard Wolowitz : It's sad how great that sounds.
