In Monday's new episode of Big Bang Theory, the guys decide they should be more active and exercise more, so they join Kripke’s fencing club.
After they are all suited up, Kripke starts teaching them the basics, which they get bored with. They follow instruction but also engage in sloppy sword play when Kripke's back is turned.
During training, it comes out that Sheldon and Amy broke up. Kripke shows interest in Amy, which bothers Sheldon. He challenges Kripke to a duel, but since he just started fencing, he said the duel won’t be for three years.
At the bar, the guys suggest that Sheldon should ask out another girl. He goes over to a woman but soon finds that he isn’t interested when she doesn’t get his Pokemon reference. He then asks her grandma, who is sitting next to her, if she is interested in him. She tells him that she is married.
Meanwhile, Stuart brings Penny, Bernadette, and Amy to the comic book store and asks them for advice on how to get more women to come in. Penny pulls up reviews on the internet to try to find why women don’t like the store. She finds that the reviews consist of complaints that Stuart is creepy. One of the reviewers said she told Stuart he had a nice shirt, so he proceeded to take it off and give it to her.
Stuart admits that it is possible that he is the problem. He confesses he is always lonely and is upset that he isn’t married yet. He says he even had a pet rabbit that he believed ran away and killed itself. Amy tells Stuart that she knows how he feels because she felt the same way before she met Sheldon, Penny, and Bernadette. Stuart takes this as Amy asking him out. She of course turns him down.
When they get back to Penny’s apartment, Amy sees she received a text message from Kripke. He asks her out and also includes a risqué picture.
Later, Amy runs into Sheldon in the hallway. Sheldon tells Amy that Kripke might ask her out. Amy reveals he already had but she turned him down.
