(Knock at the apartment door. Leonard answers. It’s Penny bearing a gift.)
P: Merry
Christmas.
L: Merry
Christmas.
P: How’s your
leg?
L: Great, thanks for asking. Come on in.
L: Great, thanks for asking. Come on in.
S: (entering)
Ah good, Penny, you’re here to exchange gifts. You’ll be pleased to know I’m
prepared for whatever you have to offer.
P: OK, here.
(she hands him the gift)
S: I should
note I’m having some digestive distress so if I excuse myself abruptly don’t be
alarmed. (he opens the gift) Oh, a napkin.
P: Turn it
over.
S: (he reads
the inscription silently and sits) “To Sheldon, live long and prosper. Leonard Nimoy.”
P: He came
into the restaurant. Sorry the napkin’s dirty he wiped his mouth with it.
(Sheldon is shocked)
S: I possess
the DNA of Leonard Nimoy?
P: Yeah, yeah
I guess, but look he signed it.
S: Do you
realize what this means? All I need is a healthy ovum and I can grow my own Leonard
Nimoy!
P: OK, all I’m
giving you is the napkin, Sheldon.
S: Be right
back. (he runs out)
P: (hands an
envelope to Leonard) Here, open it.
L: Oh, a gift
certificate for motorcycle lessons. Very thoughtful.
P: And I
checked, not letting the bike fall on you while standing still is Lesson One.
L: Then I
think you’ll appreciate what I got you.
(Leonard pulls out a gift for Penny)
(Leonard pulls out a gift for Penny)

P: (shocked)
Sheldon, what did you do?
S: I know, it’s not enough is it? Here. (he moves toward Penny and hugs her)
S: I know, it’s not enough is it? Here. (he moves toward Penny and hugs her)

saturnalian miracle.
