April 1st is coming up, so Sheldon isn't fooled by Penny's story that she gets to spend time with Bill Gates for work. Bernadette is so obsessed with her kids that Amy is getting a little sick of it.
Tropes:
- April Fools' Plot: Sheldon thinks Penny meeting Bill Gates is an April Fools prank on him. Eventually he realizes it’s real and wants to go meet him, so Leonard gives him directions… to the wrong hotel. “April Fools!”
- Blatant Lies: Bernadette can tell Amy is lying about hating her constant talk about her kids because her maternal brain is better at picking up on non-verbal cues.
- Shout-Out:
- Sheldon's knock gets equated with Batman's cowl. Sheldon'll take it.
- Bernadette declares that in her house, they watch Bob the Builder and Peppa Pig.
- Raj’s online name is “John Williams”, because he always scores.
- Stalker without a Crush: Or with a crush. All the guys are huge fans of Bill Gates. When Leonard glimpses his itinerary on Penny's phone, he takes Howard and Raj to his hotel.
