Young Sheldon - S01e02 Hdrip

Mary puts the baby down for a nap in Sheldon’s room (the quietest room in the house, because Sheldon has soundproofed it with egg cartons). Later, Mary checks on the baby and the crib is empty. Panic ensues. She searches the house—under beds, in closets, behind the couch. Missy is watching TV and nonchalantly says, "Maybe he crawled to the kitchen."

Mary frantically calls George Sr., who rushes home from the driving range with Sheldon. Sheldon, completely calm, walks into his room and points to a small gap between his bed and the wall. "The baby has migrated," he says. Indeed, the baby has rolled out of the crib, through the gap, and is now happily gumming a dust bunny under the bed. Mary is relieved and horrified. Sheldon then deadpans: "For the record, I advised against carpet fibers in the nursery."

"In the end, I never became a professional golfer. But I did learn that my father was capable of patience, even when he didn't want to be. As for the baby, he grew up to be a perfectly average adult who still doesn't know how to properly secure a crib latch. Some people never learn." young sheldon s01e02 hdrip

The episode opens in the Cooper family living room in Medford, Texas. Nine-year-old Sheldon Cooper is not doing homework or reading a textbook. Instead, he has arranged a massive pile of Pringles chips on the coffee table in a precise geometric formation. His twin sister, Missy, watches with boredom while his older brother, Georgie, tries to grab a chip. Sheldon slaps his hand away.

George Sr. is less thrilled. He’s a football coach who believes in grit, not geometry. However, he agrees to take Sheldon to the driving range. The scene at the driving range is pure comedy. Sheldon shows up in perfectly pressed shorts, a polo shirt, and a clipboard. He doesn't swing a club. Instead, he measures the wind speed with a small handheld anemometer (which he built from a broken fan motor). He then pulls out a protractor and calculates the loft angle required. Mary puts the baby down for a nap

George Sr. watches, stunned. He doesn't say "I'm proud of you." Instead, he says, "Well, I'll be. You're not completely useless." For George Sr., that's a declaration of love.

Georgie complains about his own problems. Missy mimics Sheldon’s golf swing. Mary says grace, thanking God that "no children were lost permanently." George Sr. looks at his chaotic, weird, brilliant family and just shakes his head. She searches the house—under beds, in closets, behind

Back at the golf course, George Sr. is about to give up on Sheldon when a crusty old groundskeeper named Mr. Givens watches Sheldon’s second shot. Sheldon, dejected that his perfect calculations didn’t account for a rogue sprinkler head that deflected his ball, starts ranting about the unpredictability of the physical world.
