Leonard is finally dating someone "smart and age-appropriate"—Dr. Stephanie Barnett. However, he becomes convinced he’s going to screw it up. This leads him to allow Sheldon to intervene as a "social consultant," resulting in the hilariously awkward "Triangulation." Key Highlights:
Sheldon is so delighted by Stephanie’s medical knowledge and her ability to tolerate him that he decides she is the "ideal" mate for Leonard—mostly because it benefits Sheldon. [S2E9] The White Asparagus Triangulation
Sheldon: "I’m not crazy, my mother had me tested." (A classic line that reinforced Stephanie's realization of what she was getting into). [S2E9] The White Asparagus Triangulation
This episode is a classic study in Leonard’s insecurity and Sheldon’s lack of boundaries. [S2E9] The White Asparagus Triangulation
