SHELDON: Not now, this poor man needs me. You, hold on, I'll be right with you. What computer do you have, and please don't say a white one.

HOWARD: Excuse me.

NURSE: Fill this out and have a seat.

HOWARD: We're throwing my friend a surprise party and I'm supposed to keep him out for two hours.

NURSE: Uh-huh. Fill this out and have a seat.

HOWARD:  The way I could get him to leave was tell him I ate a peanut. I'm allergic to peanuts.

NURSE: Well, in that case, fill this out and have a seat.

HOWARD:  All I need from you is to give me a BAND-AlD. I can pretend I had epinephrine. Tell my friend you need to keep me under observation for an hour.

NURSE:  ls that all you need?

HOWARD:  Yes.

NURSE:  Get out of my ER.

HOWARD: No, you don't understand.

NURSE:I understand. But unfortunately, this hospital is not equipped to treat stupid.
