After ten minutes of trying, Leonard finally gets in the queue but is 15,211th in line. Tickets run out and the four men are disappointed that they will not be able to attend, especially as they had spent so much time on their costumes, intending to go as different versions of the Hulk as portrayed by Lou Ferrigno, Eric Bana, Edward Norton and Mark Ruffalo. Sheldon decides to set up his own Comic-Con, and tries to get several celebrities to appear, including Stan Lee, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Leonard Nimoy and Wil Wheaton. He has restraining orders from Lee, Nimoy and Nye so he asks Leonard to contact them.〔 * For the episode where Sheldon is given restraining orders from Lee and Nimoy, see: * For the episode where Sheldon is given a restraining order from Nye, see: 〕 He then discovers James Earl Jones is going to a restaurant and meets him there. Unlike many celebrities Sheldon has met, James Earl Jones likes him and the two spend the night doing various activities; they go to an ice-cream parlor, a carnival, a strip club and a sauna. Sheldon asks Jones questions about himself and learns that he was functionally mute for eight years, a pre-med in college and used scuba equipment to create the sound of Darth Vader's breathing. They also sing karaoke and prank Carrie Fisher by knocking on her door and running away. At the end of the night, James Earl Jones learns that Sheldon and his friends failed to get Comic-Con tickets and invites them along as his guests. Meanwhile, Leonard, Raj, and Howard attempt to solve their Comic-Con problem by illegally buying scalped tickets. After arranging for a scalper to come to Leonard's apartment, they begin to get worried as Sheldon pointed out they could get charged for petty theft. When the scalper is heard arriving, they quickly turn out the lights and stay silent. Penny (Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting), Amy (Mayim Bialik) and Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) go to a tea room in an attempt to feel more like adults. At the tea room, they discover only mothers and their children are there and go to the bar. They discuss how they do not feel grown up and how being an adult is not necessarily a good thing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Convention Conundrum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
