Trivia

 * Second time a glimpse of Howard's mother is seen. The first was an overhead shot of her in a pink outfit in "The Countdown Reflection". Here, one can observe she has long, dark.
 * Second episode where characters go to Las Vegas; the first was "The Vegas Renormalization".
 * Both Sheldon and Penny tell Leonard what happens in the Harry Potter books that he hasn't yet read. It is unknown why Leonard, an avid fan of the fantasy arts, has never read or watched any of the books or films of one of the biggest franchises in the history of the fantasy genre, or even stumbles. upon any of the details from one of his friends up until now. This is despite them watching the first film in series four.
 * Penny admits she loves Leonard for the first time without doing it accidentally.
 * Amy claims the Relationship Agreement is ridiculous even though she found it quite romantic when Sheldon first showed it to her in "The Flaming Spittoon Acquisition".
 * Amy knows how Sheldon thinks and presents him with an ironclad argument on why she should move in and why she would be his perfect roommate.
 * Penny denies that Leonard asked whether she was ready for them to move in together, though Leonard did ask her if there was any reason that they shouldn't. Yes but penny didn't want to hurt his his feelings and there was no logical reason.
 * Penny likens Sheldon and Leonard's relationship to Sesame Street, and then calls Leonard Ernie when she was trying to get him back together with Sheldon. Previously in "The Creepy Candy Coating Corollary" (S3E05) she mentioned that as a little girl she wanted to marry Ernie.  This coincidence may be a subtle hint as to her intentions toward Leonard.
 * Amy never looks happier or smiled as much than when sitting in "their" apartment with Sheldon and discussing moving in with her boyfriend.
 * The story line doesn't show how Raj managed to get out of Howard's mother's house. The likely scenario is that Raj was stuck there until Howard and Bernadette returned from Vegas.
 * A spoiler alert warns someone of an element of a disseminated summary or description of any piece of fiction that reveals any plot elements which threaten to give away important details concerning the turn of events of a dramatic episode.
 * Though the term "spoiler alert" has been used before, this is the first episode and episode title based on that term.
 * At the end of the episode, Sheldon mentions watching AMC's "The Walking Dead" with Leonard. It's interesting to note that in "The Staircase Implementation" (S3E22) Steven Yeun appeared as a guest star, portraying Sheldon's former roommate. Yeun also portrays Glenn Rhee, a main character in "The Walking Dead."

Quotes

 * Penny: Wow. Where are you going to go?
 * Leonard: I was thinking here with you.
 * Penny: Oh.
 * Leonard: That a problem?
 * Penny: No, not at all. No, it’s, it’s great. It’s terrific. I, you know, I just can’t help feel bad about Sheldon. I mean, how’s he going to get by without you? Ernie.


 * Amy: So, what’s your plan moving forward?
 * Sheldon: I suppose I’ll have to find and cultivate a new roommate. What a task that will be. Do you know how uncivilized Leonard was when I took him in?
 * Amy: No.
 * Sheldon: It took me forever to get him on a bathroom schedule. He would go whenever the mood struck him.
 * Amy: Like a dog boy.
 * Sheldon: Exactly.
 * Amy: What if you could find a roommate who was a scientist and already familiar and comfortable with your ways?
 * Sheldon: That would be ideal. If a person like that existed I would sign on no further questions asked.
 * Amy: Great! Here I am!
 * Sheldon: Wait. Here who is where?
 * Amy: Me. Aren’t I your perfect roommate?
 * Sheldon: Um.
 * Amy: Think about it, Sheldon. I’m not a stranger. We’re intellectually compatible. I’m willing to chauffeur you around town. And your personality quirks which others find abhorrent or rave inducing I find cute as a button. What do you think?
 * Sheldon: Um.
 * Amy: Tell me one reason that this isn't a fantastic idea.
 * Sheldon: Um.
 * Amy: See, you can’t. I’m going to see if Leonard’s room is big enough for my water bed.
 * Sheldon: Um.


 * Sheldon: You can’t live here.
 * Amy: What? Why? Is it the message? I only used urban slang to sound tough so people wouldn't break in.
 * Sheldon: It’s not the message.
 * Amy: What is it then? I did everything just the way you like it.
 * Sheldon: You did.
 * Amy: THEN WHAT THE HELL, SHELDON!?!? We have been going out for over two years and I have been nothing, but patient with you. I watch your dopey space movies. I signed your ridiculous contract. I even stopped wearing lip gloss because you said it made my mouth look too slippery. I am the best girlfriend you’re ever going to have. Just give me one good reason why I can’t live here.
 * Sheldon: It’s Penny’s fault.
 * Amy: What?
 * Sheldon: She doesn't want to live with Leonard so he has to live here again. She’s the snake in our garden. She’s the reason we can’t be happy.


 * Penny: Hey, Ames.
 * Amy: Yeah. Hey, Ames, nothing. I was all set to move in with Sheldon, and now I hear I can’t ’cause you don’t want to live with Leonard.
 * Leonard: (off) What?
 * Penny: Sheldon, what did you say?
 * Sheldon: I said the truth. You don’t want to live with Leonard, and you know it.
 * Leonard: Since when don’t you want to live with me?
 * Penny: Oh, don’t get all huffy. You’re the one who decided to move in without even asking me if I was ready.
 * Sheldon: Yeah, I think we should talk about that.
 * Penny: And since you love the truth so much, why don’t you tell Amy you don’t want to live with her instead of blaming it on me?
 * Sheldon: I thought we were talking about the other thing.
 * Amy: You’re a coward.
 * Sheldon: Well, the evidence does support that.
 * Penny: Come on, Amy, let’s go drink wine and talk about what jerks our boyfriends are.
 * Amy: You know what would show them? I should move in here with you.
 * Penny: Um…


 * Leonard: You know what? Screw you, Sheldon. You are the most annoying person I have ever met.
 * Sheldon: What? I’m annoying? You criticize my behavior all the time. "Sheldon, don’t talk about your bowel movements over breakfast". "Sheldon, when the president of the university is giving a eulogy at a funeral don’t yawn and point at your watch". "Sheldon, don’t throw away my shirts ’cause you think they’re ugly". You’re impossible.
 * Leonard: That’s it. I don’t, I don’t have to put up with this.
 * Sheldon: Actually, I have your signature on a roommate agreement that says you do.
 * Leonard: Aw. Here’s what I think of your roommate agreement. (Throws the roommate agreement in the garbage can)
 * Sheldon: (gasps) You pick that up right now.
 * Leonard: No.
 * Sheldon: Roommate agreement, section 27, paragraph 5, the roommate agreement, like the American flag, cannot touch the ground.
 * Leonard: I don’t care. I don’t have to do anything you say because I don’t think I want to live here anymore.
 * Sheldon: Where are you going?
 * Leonard: To live with Penny and not you, you crazy bastard.
 * Sheldon: Crazy bastard?
 * Leonard: Yes.
