All: Space. Amy: And my boyfriend? Amy: I'm Raggedy Ann, and he's Raggedy C-3PO. Amy: No. Amy: Question. And then a laser will map the reflective surface, and voila. At the Walgreens I was over the moon for their store-brand antacids. Bernadette: Plain old Howard Wolowitz is the best guy I know. Bernadette: You could start by taking an interest in his work. He wants to go costume shopping later. How about Raggedy Ann and Andy? Howard and Bernadette are dressed as smurfs. Howard: Just plain old Howard Wolowitz again. I loved them growing up. It has nothing to do with Halloween. On purpose. Penny: I do, it's just he wants to go to that party at the comic book store. Penny: I just thought I'd stop by and say hello. Raj sent me some video of Buzz Aldrin. Raj: No. Raj: So, I thought the photo booth for the party could either be creepy like a mummy's tomb, or they also have the Tardis from Doctor Who. Scene: Howard and Bernadette's bedroom. Scene: Leonard's laboratory. Sheldon: It was a compromise. Sheldon: R2-D2 and C-3PO. Space, space! Stuart: Really? [SCENE_BREAK]

Summary: Stuart and Raj organize a Halloween costume party at the comic book store. Amy and Bernadette will go with their partners, but Penny dislikes parties at the store. Amy and Bernadette then persuade her to show interest in Leonard's activities just as he shows interest in hers despite not liking them. Taking their advice, she visits Leonard's lab, is fascinated by his work, is turned on, and has sex with him there - and whenever she visits his lab or he shows how smart he is, as at the party. Meanwhile, Sheldon and Amy argue over pair costumes, compromising between Amy's preferred Raggedy Ann & Andy and Sheldon's R2-D2 & C-3PO to go as Raggedy Ann and Raggedy C-3PO. Elsewhere, Howard talks endlessly about his space mission, boring his friends. Before sex, Bernadette forbids all space talk, so he boycotts the party. She drags him along anyway; he lashes out at Raj for having him silenced. Bernadette confronts Howard, who reveals that without space he is "just...Howard Wolowitz". She says she fell in love with "just...Howard Wolowitz"; they kiss. Raj later sends him a video of Buzz Aldrin boring children by endlessly mentioning his Moon trip, and Howard finally realizes his mistake.
