The next day, Sheldon informs them his new friend is another famous TV scientist, Bill Nye "the science guy". After Sheldon and Bill leave, Arthur asks Leonard why he lives with Sheldon. Leonard explains he is the smartest person he knows, despite his quirks, and they need each other. As Leonard's answer moves him, Arthur asks Sheldon to review his paper and even stays for a cup of tea but only after seeing Penny in the guys' apartment.
