The Big Bang Theory Recap: "The Electric Can Opener Fluctuation"

at .

Last night, The Big Bang Theory returned for its third season and with it the boys came back from their three month arctic expedition.  Rather than dragging the Penny-Leonard relationship out for the full season, Penny jumped Leonard's bones the second he said hi.

Hairy Leonard and Sheldon

Well, at least she tried to.  It turns out the boys faked the experiment results to shut up Sheldon and as a result, the gang had to head to Texas to retrieve their embarassed friend.

Find out what else happened in our recap of "The Electric Can Opener Fluctuation." 

Now for some of the best The Big Bang Theory quotes that definitely belonged to Wolowitz and Raj this episode.

Wolowitz: Sheldon. You remember the first few weeks; we were looking for magnetic monopoles and not finding anything, and you were acting like an obnoxious, giant dictator?
Raj: I thought we were going to be gentle with him.
Wolowitz: That's why I added the "tator" | permalink
Wolowitz [after seeing Penny jump Leonard]: Damnit, I should have gone over and said we were back
Raj: Yeah, it was "first come, first serve." | permalink
Leonard: I don't want to go to Texas
Wolowitz: Alright and I do? My people already crossed the desert once. We're done

Raj's poem

Sheldon: I'll have a diet Coke.
Penny: Can you please order a cocktail? I need to practice mixing drinks.
Sheldon: Fine... I'll have a virgin Cuba Libre.
Penny: That's... rum and Coke without the rum.
Sheldon: Yes, and would you make it diet?
