I also like the return of the comic book store. They made it look great and I loved the references to Stuart burning down the original store for the insurance money. I also think it give the Stuart character and the cast a good place to interact. There have been some very funny scenes in that store.

I was happy to see more scenes with Sheldon and Penny. The bit about imagining the pen was funny.

However I did not think Simon Helberg was believable in the dramatic scene in which he finds out his mother had died. He had solid comedic timing but does not always handle the dramatic scenes well.

I did like the scene near the end when Sheldon comes up to comfort Howard. I was really expecting another "let it go" joke, and was impressed by the direction the show took.

Rather a grim episode. It was two serious fights with genuine anger (Howard vs Stewart/ Leonard & Penny violated by the experiments of Sheldon and Amy) topped off by the death of a character.

Lots of sit, not much com.

If you really want to know.... but this is def. spoiler alert time...

Spoiler
The elevator was destroyed when Leonard, Raj and Howard were using experimental rocket fuel to power a model rocket. Leonard calculated wrong, causing a large explosion, and Sheldon saved them all by putting the fuel into the elevator, ad letting the door close -- BOOM! So the elevator needs to be completely rebuilt, but keeping it broken is funny.

Bernadette worked at the Cheesecake Factory with Penny, and Penny set her up with Howard, fully expecting it to not work. It worked.

Howard and Raj made a online dating profile for Sheldon, and he got matched with Amy, and they clicked and she adores Penny, and Penny at first didn't want to hurt her feelings but they are now great friends.

This explains the elevator incident...I love it!
1.

2. All I remember is that Penny meets Leonard and Sheldon toward the beginning of the show and Leonard is, of course, attracted to her, but she is doesn't feel the same at that time. Amy came along later on and Bernadette also later on. Maybe someone else remembers more about that.

I'm thinking Stuart will inherit Mrs. Wolowitz' house.

By the way it will never BE fixed because it provides for back and forth banter up the stairs

Maybe in the final episode, where they are moving out of the apartment and going their separate ways, just as they finish hauling all their stuff downstairs, the elevator repair crew arrives,
