STEPHANIE: Hi,Sheldon.
SHELDON: Hi,Stephanie. I'm sorry I'm late,but your companion left the most indecipherable invitation.
LEONARD: What invitation?
SHELDON: We're going to the movies. What movie? What theater? What time? If you were trying to make it impossible to locate you,you couldn't have done a better job.
LEONARD: Oh,clearly I could have.
SHELDON: It took me nearly 20 minutes to go through the browser history on your computer to see what movie times you looked up.
SHELDON: Wait here,I'll find us seats.
STEPHANIE: Uh,no,we have seats.
LEONARD: Not the right seats.
