The lights were turned down low and Sheldon and Amy were locked in a passionate kiss sitting on his sofa. She pulled back, "Can you believe it's been five years since our first date?"
He smiled at her, "I know. Do you think I should start watching The Flash TV show?'
She looked at him, "That's what you're thinking about?"
"Well, one of the things."
In an irritated voice she replied, "Are any of them about me."
He nodded, "Yes. I thought, "I can't decide if I should watch "The Flash" TV show. I know, I'll ask Amy" He leaned in for a kiss, "Anyway..."
She pulled back, waving her hands from side to side, "What are you doing?"
"You're right. You did kind of kill the mood." He got up and moved to the kitchen.
"I didn't kill anything. You did, talking about your stupid TV show."
"Excuse me, starting to watch a television show that might run for years isn't a decision to take lightly. I'm wrestling with a big commitment issues here."
Now she was really pissed and stood, and moved over to where he was standing, "Really? That's the commitment issue you're wresting with? Sheldon, do you understand the irony of your fixation on a man with super speed, while after five years all I can get out of you is a distracted make-out session on a couch?"
He looked worried, "Irony's not really my strong suit. But I have been getting better with sarcasm if you want to give that a try."
Sarcastically she replied, "Oh, sure, I'd love to."
They stood there looking at one another and Sheldon suddenly replied, "Whenever you're ready."
While that was happening, at the comic book store Emily and Raj were looking through the comics and Stuart came over to them, "I don't want to rush you, but I'm closing early tonight."
Raj looked up, "Oh, hot date?"
"No, I overheard Bernadette tell Howard she's making him a meatloaf and you don't have to not ask me twice."
While they were talking, Emily found a skull with three swords sticking out of its skull. She picked it up and brought it over to Raj, "If I stick a lightbulb on this wouldn't it make a great lamp for my bedroom?"
He stared at her, "You're kidding, right?"
"Oh, is this freaking you out?"
"Well, I guess I'm just more of a Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel kind of guy." He saw her nod and continued, "Maybe Pier 1 if I really want to cut loose."
She looked disappointed, "All right, never mind."
She turned to put it back and Raj stopped her, "No, hey, you should totally get it. In fact, I'll buy it for you."
Before she could reply Stuart called out, "Sold!"
She looked to Stuart and then back to Raj, "You don't have to do that."
Stuart yelled out, "Too late, no returns!"
Back at the apartment, Penny and Leonard were just returning from the farmer's market and he was shook up, "That was really intense."
"Yeah, now we know, next time we go to the farmer's market the order is petting zoo first, then buy vegetables."
Leonard opened the door and saw Sheldon before his computer, "Hey."
"Oh, good, you're here. I need your assistance."
Penny came over to him, "So, what do you need help with?"
"Amy's mad at me, and I'm not clear why."
"Okay, were you talking before she got upset?"
Sheldon nodded, "Yes."
"That's probably it. What did you say to her?"
"I just asked her if I should start watching the new "Flash TV" series."
She looked at him skeptical that what was all, "And that made her angry?"
"Baffling, right? We were necking like a couple of hooligans under the school bleachers. I stopped so I could ask the question. Next thing I know, goodbye, kissy face, hello yell-y face."
Penny knew the problem immediately, "Sheldon, when you're kissing a girl, she expects the attention to be on her."
"It was I asked her if I thought I should watch "The Flash."
She stepped away, "Yeah, I'm tapping out, Leonard?""
He looked up after putting a Band-Aid on his goat- bite, "I guess your main concern is the time commitment of watching an entire season of a new show."
Penny stepped back in, "What's wrong with you two? He was talking about television during their date night."
Sheldon broke in, "Oh, not just date night, but our fifth anniversary of our first date."
She threw up her hands, "Okay, that's even dumber than you wondering if being bitten by a goat would give you the powers of a goat."
At the Wolowitz kitchen, Howard and Raj were setting the table as Bernadette finished cooking. Raj turned to them, "Have you guys noticed Emily has a bit of a twisted side?"
Bernie turned away from the stove, "Because she had weird tattoos?"
"No, because she wants to have sex with me in a graveyard."
Howard turned towards him, not sure what he heard, "One more time?"
Raj threw up his arms, "She and I were supposed to watch the new Avengers movie tonight, but it was sold out. I said, "What else do you want to do?" She said: "Let's go to a cemetery and do it on somebody's grave."
Howard chuckled, "Like, a random person or somebody she knew?"
Raj couldn't believe the question, "What difference does it make?"
"Well, if it's her father's grave and they didn't get along, then you know she holds a grudge."
Bernie stepped in, "The only issue is that everybody had their own thing. As long as it's two consenting adults, I don't see the harm in it."
"What if its one consenting adult and one who pretends to consent because he's afraid of being alone?"
She shrugged, "Well, then I guess bring a blanket. The grass gets damp at night."
Raj moved to the table, "I don't know, guys. Maybe this relationship isn't for me. Maybe I should break up with her."
Howard laughed out loud, "Right, you're gonna break up with a girl who has sex with you. Can you believe this guy?"
Bernadette came over to Howard, "I think if Raj wants to break up with a girl, he can do it."
He stared at her, "How are you saying that with a straight face?"
She cracked up, "I don't know." They both laughed out loud.
Raj was getting pissed, "You guys are being jerks!"
Howard sat down, "Look, buddy, other than Jenny Craig, you've never broken up with a girl in your life."
"You're one to talk. You've been complaining about Stuart living here for the past year. I don't see you showing him the door."
Howard chuckled, "Not the same thing, Emily's a person. Stuart's more like an infestation, something you spray for."
Raj wasn't buying it, "Baloney, okay? You two are as afraid of hurting someone's feelings as I am."
Bernadette came over and crossed her arms under her large breasts, "That's not true. We were just laughing right in your face."
The following evening, Leonard just finished making dinner for the three of them. Sheldon was getting worried, he kept checking his phone.
Penny took a sip of her iced tea, "Still haven't heard from her?"
He looked up, "No, and I'm confused. It's been nearly 24 hours. Amy should have figured out she's wrong by now."
Penny rolled her eyes at him, "I don't think she's wrong about you going too slow in the relationship."
He made a weird face, "Too slow?"
"Yeah you two have been going together for five years, and you haven't even slept together. "
"That's right; it's called foreplay. And I could make the case that you two aren't moving forward in your relationship"
She had a shocked look on her face. She raised her hand with the engagement ring on it and waved it in his face, "Uhhhhhh, hello?"
He was confused and waved back, "Hello."
Penny buried her face in her hands, "No, Sheldon, we're getting married." She pointed to her ring.
"You've been engaged for over a year now. You don't even have a wedding date."
"Well, we will; we're just not in a rush."
Sheldon shrugged, "Okay."
Leonard felt an uneasiness at the table, "We're gonna set a date."
Sheldon nodded, "Okay, if you say so."
Penny added, "Yeah, things are good right now."
Leonard added, "Really good."
Penny began again, sounding really defensive, "I'm focusing on my job."
Leonard did the same, "Been busy with our paper. We'll pick a date when we pick a date."
She nodded, "Yeah!"
Sheldon looked up from his salad, "Okay."
Penny put down here fork and yelled at Sheldon, "You know, I can see why Amy's mad at you."
Leonard yelled at him too, "Yeah, shut up, Sheldon!"
In the Wolowitz's living room, Howard was checking his e-mails when Bernadette came in, "Did you eat my yogurt?"
"You mean the one that makes ladies do the thing ladies pretend they don't, even though they do?"
She gave him an evil stare, "You know... which yogurt... I mean!"
He shrugged, "I didn't touch it. It must've been Stuart."
She let out a grunt and came over and sat beside him, "Maybe Raj was right. Maybe it's time we tell him he needs to move out."
He agreed, "We should've done it months ago."
"I know, but his store was reopening, and then there were the holidays, and then he was sick."
