Leonard is jealous of Sheldon because Sheldon has a girlfriend, Amy Farrah Fowler (Creator/MayimBialik), and Leonard does not. It seems like every other man has a girlfriend: Raj is dating a deaf woman, and even the pathetic Stuart (Creator/KevinSussman) is dating a woman he describes as "horrible."
Raj suggests Leonard invoke the girlfriend pact he made with Howard. Leonard is reluctant. But after failing to pick up a woman at the Apple Store's Genius Bar, Leonard goes see Howard. Bernadette sets Leonard up with Joy (Creator/CharlotteNewhouse), an attractive physical fitness enthusiast whom Leonard finds obnoxious.

To Sheldon's relief, it turns out that Amy only wanted the pretense of a sexual relationship with Sheldon without an actual sexual relationship. In a video call with Mrs. Fowler, Amy and Sheldon lay it on real thick, to the poor old woman's shock.
