Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSheldon's oft-repeated habit of offering a hot beverage to a distressed house guest is apparently something that his mother taught him.
- GoofsThere are already three glasses of water waiting for them at the table in the sushi restaurant.
The server could have brought over the glasses and placed them there after they had asked for a table for 3 people. This often happens at good restaurants.
- Quotes
Leonard Hofstadter: Sheldon, you're talking like a crazy person.
Mary Cooper: Actually, I had him tested as a child. Doctor says he's fine.
Sheldon Cooper: Told you.
Mary Cooper: Although I do regret not following up with that specialist in Houston.
- Crazy creditsCHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #361 Miscellaneous Show Biz Tips Never forget that taking a bow and ducking are essentially the same thing. The reason you suffer is because you think your identity and worth as a human being are inextricably tied into your career. Don't think that. Success has many parents, and even more lawyers. They're paying you a lot because they're killing you. Don't grow too attached to your agent. Like a beloved spouse, they come and go. If you want fair, go to Pomona September 8-26. Wear comfy shoes. It's not true that if you believe the good reviews, you must also believe the bad ones. The bad ones could have been written by mean, stupid people who hate your success. Act like your job is the most important thing in the world, but never forget that it's ultimately meaningless. All we are is dust in the wind, yada-yada-yada.

Featured review
Sheldon's mom comes to visit in "The Rhinitis Revelation" ep of "The Big Bang Theory"
Sheldon's mom Mary has come for a visit and her son is anxious for her to make some fried chicken but since she just arrived from a long flight, Leonard offers to take her to a sushi restaurant instead. This gets Sheldon a little disappointed since she's also not going to make her pecan pie later on. She also won't go to a lecture with him since she's been to enough of those when he was growing up as she wants to see the sights in L.A. Unfortunately for the rest of the gang, those sights are mostly to churches...Won't reveal more but will say Laurie Metcalf is once again quite funny in her politically incorrect way with her comments especially when finding out about Leonard's relationship with an Indian woman thousands of miles away. And Sheldon sure is insecure when it comes to having to share his mom socially with his friends. So on that note, "The Rhinitis Revelation" is another funny ep of "The Big Bang Theory".
