The Romance Resonance – “If I Didn’t Have You (Bernadette’s Song)”

The Big Bang Theory nailed it with their last episode, The Romance Resonance, which aired last thursday. It was such a funny episode and with an enormity of plots!

Howard and Bernadette

This is going to stay in my top 10 moments of the show. Howard writes and preforms a song for his wife, for the celebration of their first date anniversary and, remember when Howard was probably the last guy on Earth you would ever consider dating? Well, not after this one! The song was written by Kate Micucci, who plays Raj’s ex-girlfriend Lucy, and her Garfunkel & Oates writing partner Riki Lindhome.

If I didn’t have you, life would be blue
I’d be Doctor Who without the TARDIS
A candle without a wick, a Watson without a Crick
I’d be one of my outfits without a dick-ey

I’d be cheese without the mac,
Steve Jobs without the Wozniak
I’d be solving exponential equations that use bases not found on your calculator, making it much harder to crack

I’d be an atom without a bomb, a dot without the com
And I’d probably still live with my mom
(All, echo: And he’d probably still live with his mom)

Ever since I met you, you’ve turned my world around
You’ve supported all my dreams and all my hopes
You’re like Uranium-235 and I’m Uranium-238,
Almost inseparable isotopes

I couldn’t have imagined how good my life would get
From the moment that I met you, Bernadette

If I didn’t have you, life would be dreary
I’d be string theory without any string
I’d be binary code without a one,
A cathode ray tube without an electron gun
I’d be ‘Firefly’, ‘Buffy,’ and ‘Avengers’ without Joss Whedon
I’d speak a lot more Klingon,
[Speaks Klingon]
All: And he’d definitely still live with his mom

Ever since I met you, you’ve turned my world around
You’re my best friend and my lover
We’re like changing electric and magnetic fields;
you can’t have one, without the other

I couldn’t have imagined how good my life would get
From the moment that I met you, Bernadette

All: Oh, we couldn’t have imagined, how good our lives would get
From the moment that we met you, Bernadette

Penny and Leonard

After despairing for not being able to do anything romantic for Leonard, Penny pulls out a box of everything that Leonard ever gave her, from the very beginning of their on and off and on again relationship, showing Leonard the most romantic gesture of all!

Sheldon and Amy

The main plot of this week’s episode was that sheldon found a formula and discovered a new element, only to realize afterwards that he had made a mistake and was being given credit for an error. Making him extremely miserable throughout the congratulations, articles written about him and even being raised.

Amy shows she’s a good girlfriend by being the only one who says that he should feel bad and that he shouldn’t get any credit.

The episode ends with an hilarious scene where Sheldon confesses his desire to kiss Amy… turns out, she was “in the zone”, aka, she was daydreaming.
