I really think we should examine the chain of causality here. Must we? Event A: A beautiful woman stands naked in our shower . Event B: We drive halfway across town to retrieve a television set from the aforementioned woman's ex - boyfriend . On what plane of existence is there even a semi - rational link between these events? She asked me to do her a favor, Sheldon. Well, that may be the proximal cause of our journey but we both know it exists in contradistinction to the higher - level distal cause. Which is? You think with your penis. That's a biological impossibility, and you didn't have to come. I could have stayed behind to watch Wolowitz hit on Penny in Russian, Arabic and Farsi . And why can't she get her own TV? Come on, you know how it is with breakups. No, I don't, and neither do you. But I...I broke up with Joyce Kim. You did not break up with Joyce Kim . She defected to North Korea. To mend her broken heart . This situation is much less complicated . There's some dispute between Penny and her ex - boyfriend as to who gets custody of the TV . She just wanted to avoid a scene with him. So we get to have a scene with him? No, Sheldon, there's not going to be a scene . There's two of us and one of him. Leonard, the two of us can't even carry a TV.
