Go To

"A Baby Tooth and the Egyptian God of Knowledge" is an episode of Young Sheldon that first aired April 16, 2020.

Sheldon has a scientific breakthrough at the dentist's office. Dale and Meemaw go to the casino, but Georgie makes a big mistake when Dale leaves him in charge of the store.


Tropes:

  • Drunk on Milk: Sheldon tries to recreate his dream of learning the Unified Field Theory by taking the strongest drug he can think of — chamomile tea. He takes a super concentrated dose of it and gets a hallucination that his scientist posters come to life (along with Missy's Cyndi Lauper poster).
  • I Was Having Such a Nice Dream: Sheldon is put under anesthesia and dreams that Thoth the Egyptian god of knowledge gives him the Unified Field Theory, but he forgets it afterwards and tries to get the same dream again.
  • Kick the Dog: Despite Georgie sincerely apologizing for the store getting robbed on his watch and even paying for the loss with his own savings, Dale still fires him after taking the money as Revenge by Proxy for Meemaw turning down his marriage proposal.
  • Mushroom Samba: The anesthesia given to Sheldon at the dentist's office gives him a vivid hallucination of attending a carnival attraction and asking a fortune-telling machine about how to unify calculations for the universe's four fundamental forces.
