Everything this season between the Sheldon & Amy characters has led to them being intimate. That to me is the big set-up for the season finale. As someone pointed out on here not too long ago, season 5 finale was Howard & Bernadette's, and Season 6 finale belonged mainly to Penny & Leonard; it's now Sheldon & Amy's turn to have the season finale belong to them, and in a good way, not a negative way. I refuse to believe the writers would have taken us this far this season only to break up the couple. Even Jim & Mayim have said in the past that they cannot see that happening, and that they themselves don't want it to happen to their characters. It is very disappointing to read in this episode's taping report how little Mayim was in the show, but maybe she had another engaggement/commitment. Still, I hope even that absence eads to a big pay-off for the season finale. Even if the two characters finally had sex, that in itself could be a cliff-hanger to see how Sheldon deals with the aftermath. Despite my disappointment in the lack of Mayim/Jim scenes which are always so enjoybable to watch, I am glad that Leonard & Penny are engaged.
