Two episodes in a row where Sheldon has betrayed his friends in a big way. He had a chance to get in one the bitcoin thing at the beginning and chose not to. So where does revenge come in. It's simply meanness and spite. His character is actually getting nastier.

Okay so I'm still catching up on the latest season of the show and I've also been watching Young Sheldon which is hilarious. Tonight I watched this episode and could not stop laughing - one of the best laughs I've had from the show. The premiere takes place in two parts - seven years ago and present day and all about Bitcoin and deciding to cash in on the money. Seeing the characters go back into the past was brilliant because you realise how far they have come even Amy who had a rather humorous flashback. Sheldon is still Sheldon always and hearing Howard's mother again was just classic and even Zack is still Zack and I was laughing so much. I could re watch this episode again because it was just a sheer joy and entertainment

If you've been a fan of this show for a while, you'll find the characters' behavior in this episode hard to believe. First of all, because Sheldon is mad at Leonard, Raj, and Howard for not letting him mine Bitcoin with them, he refuses to tell them where they stored it (he has an eidetic memory). Leonard criticizes him for still being mad about something that happened 7 years ago. Later, however, Leonard finds out that after he gave Penny a laptop as a gift, she gave it to Zack when Leonard and Penny broke up, which causes him to get mad at her. She gave the laptop to Zack 7 years before this episode takes place. Leonard tells Sheldon not to be mad about something that happened 7 years ago, but he gets mad at Penny for something that happened 7 years ago. It has been clearly established that Leonard is a really nice guy, so he would never be a hypocrite like that. Some time after Leonard criticizes Sheldon, Sheldon criticizes Penny for ignoring her customers, and she tells him to shut up and eat his burger. He corrects her, saying that it's a turkey club. She asks, "Didn't you order a burger?" and he answers, "I did, and yet here we are." It's been clearly established that Sheldon complains about even the slightest inconvenience. He would've told Penny that she had gotten his order wrong as soon as she had given him the turkey club. Later, Amy mentions that at Comic-Con, Leonard wiped his nose on Sheldon's Darth Vader cape. Again, it's been clearly established that Leonard is a really nice guy. He would never wipe his nose on someone else's cape. Do the writers really expect us to believe this?
