(Enters a door marked "The Office of Siri" Inside is a red-headed woman sitting at a huge console desk.) (Kisses him. (Raj tries to speak) I'm sorry. (To phone) Hello? Amy: For someone who has a machine that can travel anywhere in time and space, Doctor Who sure does have a thing for modern-day London. Amy: Sweet! And more. And, take two. Barry (to his own phone): You got Siwi, huh? Barry: Heads up. His phone. I just think if we're gonna try dating again, we should take things slow. I'm having dinner with Penny. If you'd like to make love to me, just tell me. Is he dating somebody new? Leonard accidentally shoots himself in the foot.) Leonard: Before an application is released, they give it a trial run. Leonard: Can you finish it later? Leonard: Well, technically, this would be an alpha test. Penny: Even Doctor Who. Penny: Okay. Penny: What's this? Penny: Yeah, hang on. Raj: Hey, don't talk to her like that. Raj: I haven't bonded with it. Raj: I stopped on the way to work. Raj: You have a beautiful voice. Scene: Sheldon and Raj's office. Sheldon: How about constantly talks with food in her mouth? Sheldon: Kripke. Sheldon: Now, today's episode of Fun with Flags is not fun, but it is important. Sheldon: The flags of Liechtenstein and Haiti were identical by coincidence, a fact that wasn't discovered until they competed against each other at the 1936 Olympics. Siri, play some smooth jazz. Three of them are fairly close to you. We hardly know each other.

With Penny wanting to take things slow and Leonard determined to ensure that their relationship works out this time, they agree to an alpha test relationship - instead of them arguing with each other, they highlight each other's faults and work on them. However this goes poorly as Leonard gives Penny a huge list of her faults, while Penny retaliates by giving Leonard a huge list of his faults. When he tries to patch things up by taking her target shooting, he accidentally shoots himself in the shoe, barely missing his toe. Later Penny assures him that their relationship is progressing smoothly. Meanwhile, Raj buys a new iPhone 4S and falls in love with its Siri as it is a female voice he can speak to without being drunk. He starts making decisions only after consulting Siri and even defends it after Kripke criticizes it for giving erroneous answers on his iPhone 4S (due to his rhotacism). Later Raj has a nightmare in which he finally meets Siri, who is a beautiful woman, but cannot talk to her due to his selective mutism. Elsewhere, Sheldon and Amy start a podcast about flags titled "Fun With Flags". Amy provides some suggestions during the podcast, which Sheldon unexpectedly accepts, indicating a deep bond between the two.
