- Amy Farrah Fowler: Have I ever told you you're like a sexy praying mantis?
- Sheldon Cooper: Every time you drink alcohol.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: You know what's wonderful about the praying mantis, they devour their mate.
- Sheldon Cooper: Your point being?
- Amy Farrah Fowler: [Undoes the top button of her blouse] Dessert is served.
- Sheldon Cooper: I just had cobbler.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: [Buttons back up] You know what? I'm done with this.
- Sheldon Cooper: Where are you going?
- Amy Farrah Fowler: I'm leaving.
- Sheldon Cooper: You can't leave. I need you.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: You do?
- Sheldon Cooper: Yes. You're my ride.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Sheldon, you either say something meaningful and from the heart, or you and I are done.
- Sheldon Cooper: Alright, please. Amy, when I look in your eyes and you're looking back in mine, everything feels not quite normal. Because I feel stronger and weaker at the same time. I feel excited, and at the same time, terrified. The truth is, I don't know what I feel, except I know what kind of man I want to be.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: Sheldon, that was beautiful.
- Sheldon Cooper: I should hope so. That's from the first Spider-Man movie.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: I'll take it.
- Dimitri: Loops, you realize you just lied your ass off to your wife and your mother.
- Howard Wolowitz: I know.
- Dimitri: What are you going to do when you get back to Earth?
- Howard Wolowitz: Oh, I'm never going back.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: If Sheldon proposed to me during sex, my ovaries would grab on to him and never let go.
- Bernadette Rostenkowski: Listen mister, you're gonna talk to your mother and you're gonna fix this or that thing I said I was gonna do to you the minute you got home, you can do to yourself.
- Dimitri: Like he's been doing since he got here.
- Raj Koothrappali: Isn't this romantic?
- Sheldon Cooper: I hope that's a rhetorical question, because I have no clue.
- Howard Wolowitz: Ma, please, everyone from NASA is listening to this phone call.
- Mrs. Wolowitz: Good! They should know what a horrible son you are!
- Howard Wolowitz: Okay, Ma, great talking to you! Gotta go!
- [Hangs up]
- Howard Wolowitz: Well, space is ruined.
- Stuart: So, Howard's really in space, huh?
- Leonard Hofstadter: Mm hmm, International Space Station. 250 miles that way.
- Raj Koothrappali: Right now, Howard's staring down at our planet like a tiny Jewish Greek god. Zeusowitz.
- Sheldon Cooper: I must admit I can't help but feel a tinge of envy. He can look out the window and see the majesty of the universe unfolding before his eyes. His dim, uncomprehending eyes. Like a cat in an airport carrying case.
- Sheldon Cooper: Whatever it is, we know his life will never be the same.
- [Cut to International Space Station]
- Mrs. Wolowitz: [shouting through the phone] Howard! Can you hear me?
- Howard Wolowitz: I can hear you without the phone!
- Dimitri: Hey Fruit Loops, you got a phone call.
- Howard Wolowitz: Who is it?
- Dimitri: A woman who says she's your mother but sounds like your father.
- Howard Wolowitz: [phone call to the space station] Hey, Ma. You know, we could see each other if you turn on the computer.
- Mrs. Wolowitz: I'm not going near that fakakta thing. I'll catch a computer virus!
- Howard Wolowitz: You can't catch a computer virus.
- Mrs. Wolowitz: Oh, so now you're an astronaut and a doctor?
- Sheldon Cooper: The only sea creature I would even consider being eaten by is the Kraken, because the last words I would hear are, "Release the Kraken".
- Howard Wolowitz: Hey, I'm a grown man. I'm gonna live with my wife. My mother's gonna have to learn to make do on her own,
- Bernadette Rostenkowski: Was she upset?
- Howard Wolowitz: Who can tell? She yells everything.
- Leonard Hofstadter: Sheldon, are you sure you want to be bringing Raj on your date night with Amy?
- Sheldon Cooper: Oh, absolutely. I have a contractual obligation to provide Amy with conversation and casual physical contact, but nowhere is it specified that I can't outsource that to an Indian.
- Amy Farrah Fowler: This is so exciting. Soon, my upper lip will be the same fake blonde as my beautiful best friend.
- Penny: Hey! This is my natural hair color... now.
