- TriviaDr. Linkletter tells Sheldon "Scientist who pursue little green men get laughed at" could be a reference to The Big Bang Theory (2007) - The Decision Reverberation (2019), which sees Sheldon friend Raj gets mocked for believing in aliens after someone questions him at the planetarium he worked at about his belief and he says as a scientist he can't definitively say one way or another and it snowballs to people thinking he said he believed in aliens and making fun of him.
- Quotes
James T. Kirk: [William Shatner as James T. Kirk, in Season 1, Episode 23 of Star Trek, A Taste of Armageddon, is playing on television] They'll want to do the same. Only the next attack they launch will do a lot more than just count up numbers on a computer.
Mary Cooper: What are you doing?
Sheldon Cooper: Dad and I are watching Star Trek.
[George Senior is snoring]
Sheldon Cooper: I guess I'm watching Star Trek.
Mary Cooper: Want me to watch with you?
Sheldon Cooper: Sure. Let me catch you up. The Enterprise is traveling to miniar VII to resolve their war with the neighboring Vendikar.
Mary Cooper: Uh-huh.
Sheldon Cooper: But Kirk suspects that instead of having a real war, the miniaries and the Vendikaries are having a computer-simulated conflict.
Mary Cooper: Uh-huh.
Sheldon Cooper: In Kirk's opinion, by keeping the horrors of war at arm's length, they're simply prolonging it.
Mary Cooper: Let me ask you something.
Sheldon Cooper: Answers are my thing. Go for it.
Mary Cooper: Do you really believe in all this space alien stuff?
Sheldon Cooper: Well, it's simple probability theory. There are over a hundred billion stars in our galaxy. So it's likely that a few of them could support life, or even technological civilization.
Mary Cooper: And did Jesus die for their sins as well?
Sheldon Cooper: You have your stories, I have mine.
Mary Cooper: [door closes] Whew. Sounds like Georgie's home. George, wake up. Watch Star Trek with your son.
