Episode Quotes

Raj Koothrappali: I don't know if I want to play anymore.
Sheldon Cooper: Because you don't have a girlfriend? Good lord, if that becomes a reason to not play Dungeons & Dragons, this game's in serious trouble.
Raj Koothrappali: [Yelling] How dare you ambush my girlfriend at the gym?
Penny: We didn't mean for it to be an ambush! It just, it's kind of impossible not to sneak up on deaf people!
Howard Wolowitz: She asks if you play any instrument.
Raj Koothrappali: No, but when I was six years old, I tried to start a boyband called Frankie Goes to Bollywood.

Trivia

  • Amy wants to be a bridesmaid for Bernadette at the wedding and eventually gets her wish.
  • Howard knows how to use sign language among the many languages he speaks.
  • Sheldon describes Raj's family's wealth as being "About halfway between Bruce Wayne and Scrooge McDuck." The 2011 Forbes Fictional 15 puts Bruce Wayne at $7 billion and Scrooge McDuck at $44 billion, which puts Raj's NET value at approximately $25.5 billion. However, as he was described as being "Richie Rich" rich, this may put his NET value at $9.7 billion.
  • Sheldon works as a Notary Public.
  • When Raj was 6, he tried to form a boy band called "Frankie goes to Bollywood" but no one wanted to join so his parents got some of the servants to be his backup dancers.
