The Big Bang Theory on Christmas tradition (The maternal congruence)



Fill in the blanks with the words you hear. It is the first scene after the initial credits of THIS EPISODE:

 Scene: The apartment.

Penny: I just love __decorating___________ the Christmas tree. It makes me feel like a little girl again.

Leonard: We didn’t have a tree when I was _______growing up______________.

Penny: Really? Why not?

Leonard: Mmm, in my family, holidays weren’t so much ___celebrated_________________ as studied for their anthropological and psychological implications on ________human __________ society.

Penny: Oh, sounds festive. Did you at least give ________present____________?

Leonard: Mmm, in a way. We presented papers, and then broke off into focus groups and critiqued each other.

Penny: Sheldon, what about you? Did you _______have_________a Christmas tree?

Sheldon: Oh, yes. We had a tree, we had a manger, we had an inflatable ____santa clous__________ with plastic reindeer on the front lawn. And to make things even more jolly, there were so many blinking ____lihgths_____________ on the house they induced neighbourhood-wide seizures.

Penny: So I take it you don’t want to _______help_________ us trim the tree.

Sheldon: I do not. But if you insist on _____decorated________________a spider-infested fire hazard in my home I would request that you add this.

Penny: What is it?

Sheldon: You’re kidding, right? It’s a bust of Sir ______Neewton_______________.

Sheldon: Wait, excuse me, but it’s much more Christmassy than anything you’ve put on the tree.

His birthday was moved to coincide with a traditional pagan holiday that celebrated the ______Winter___________ solstice with lit fires and slaughtered goats. Which, frankly, sounds like more _____fun________________ than 12 hours of church with my mother followed by a fruitcake.

Leonard: Merry Newton-mas, everyone.

Sheldon: I sense that’s not sincere, although I have no idea why.

Penny: No, it’s fine. Look, Sir Isaac can go right next to this little candy cane.

Sheldon: No. Isaac goes at the __________top__________of the tree.

Leonard: No, he _____________doesn't______________.
