Sheldon Copper was walking up the stairs to his apartment after a long day at work. When he reached his floor, his neighbor, Penny walked out of her apartment.

"Hey Sheldon what's wrong?" Penny asked.

"I don't want to talk about," he said going into his apartment.

Penny walks over to Sheldon's door and knocks like he does.

"Sheldon...Sheldon...Sheldon," she said just like Sheldon does to her.

He opens the door and said, "That is just annoying."

"Whatever, so what's wrong?" Penny asked.

"I don't want to talk about it. Bye."

She repeats the knocking.

"Do I do that to you?" He asked.

"The knocking pattern or the knocking again after I close the door?"

"The second one."

"I am sure you have."

Sheldon walks over to the couch and Penny walks in closing the door behind her.

"Well, if you must know, there will be a new scientist starting tomorrow. His name is William and I don't want to know his last name. You know how I get around new people, or how I do not like my routine changed.

"Yea I know, well I am sure things will be alright."

"I bet they won't."

Meanwhile across town, Billy Craston was in his new apartment getting ready for the next day. His wife walked into his study.

"How is it going?"

"Very well, although I am apprehensive about my new job."

"I am sure you will do fine."

"I just hope none of my new coworkers are the stereotypical nerds who are into super heroes and mention the first team of Power Rangers."

"Even if they are, maybe they will say that they like the first blue ranger," she said before she let out a laugh.

"Ha Ha very funny. I guess it will be ok as long as none of them say they like the second pink ranger."

"If so, I think we did a great job of keeping our secret identity a secret."

"I hope so."

The next morning Sheldon and his roommate, Leonard Hofstadter, were getting ready for work.

"Why did the university have to hire a new guy?" Sheldon asked.

"Relax, Sheldon, Billy will be working with Howard and Raj."

"Billy, please. His name is William, and it does not matter where he works at, I won't like him."

"Stop being childish."

"I will not, and you can't make me."

"Ok fine whatever," Leonard said before he walked out the door.

"Hey wait for me!" Sheldon yelled chasing Lenard.

At lunch, Raj and Howard introduced Billy to Lenard and Sheldon.

"Billy these are our friends Dir.'s Copper and Hofstadter," Howard said.

"Greeting," Billy said as he shook Leonard's hand.

"I'm Leonard and Mr. standoffish here is Sheldon."

"Greetings," Billy said as he tried to shake Sheldon's hand.

"He is a germaphobe," Howard said.

"I am not, and if I was the correct term is mysophobia," Sheldon stated.

"Also he is anti social," Raj said.

"Sheldon only talks to those he wants to or has to," Leonard said. "So where are you from?"

"I am from Angel Grove, California."

"Wait a moment, something about that city rings a bell," Sheldon said.

"Oh my gosh, that has to be the quickest Sheldon has said anything after he has met somebody for the first time," Raj said.

"No it is not," Sheldon said.

"Um hum, yes it is," Leonard and Howard said while shaking their heads.

"Weren't the Power Rangers in Angel Grove at one point?" Sheldon asked.

This could be bad. Billy thought.

"I got an idea. Why don't we dress up as Power Rangers for Halloween?" Raj asked.

"Are you going to have a costume party?" A nervous Billy asked.

"Usually we will go to one," Howard said.

"I don't know," Sheldon said.

"Wait do they make Power Ranger costumes?" Leonard asked.

"This conversation has taken an 180," Howard said.

"Penny has told me that she did see a few people wear Power Ranger shirts that looked like the first suits," Leonard said.

"You know, Bernadette said the same thing," Howard said.

"Dressing up as Power Rangers will be a nice change from the Justice League," Leonard said.

As long as I don't dress up as my former self, I should be ok. If I get roped into dressing up in one of the other colors, I hope nobody finds out. Billy thought.

"I got it! I can be red, Leonard can be white, William can be blue, Howard can be black, and Raj can be yellow," Sheldon said.

Billy spit out his drink.

"I just met you guys, and you are including me in your tradition? By the way call me Billy, all of my friends do."

"We are not friends so I will call you William if I want to," Sheldon said.

"Wait, who said you can assign colors and be the boss?" Leonard asked.

"I did, You know it takes me a while to talk to antiquities so therefore I figure if we are going to buck tradition, I say I decide who is what color. Besides everybody knows that the red ranger is the leader of the team," Sheldon said.

I guess he does not know about when Tommy was white. Billy thought.

"What do you know about Power Rangers anyways Sheldon?" Howard asked.

"Not too much, I just pick up on bits and pieces from my students. That and one day I accidentally typed in Power Rangers in a search engine. So ha," Sheldon said.

"Have all the planets aligned with the sun and moon? "Sheldon is actually being social, well for him," Raj said.

"I have been in space, and from my experience it is extremely rare for that to happen," Billy said.

"Howard has been in space also," Leonard said.

"Nobody wants to hear about that again," Sheldon said as Howard opened his mouth.

I doubt that he has been through what I have been through. Billy thought.

"You know, I have recently been carious to start a new experiment to see if I can create my team of Power Rangers. In fact, I like to talk to somebody at Light speed Rescue in Mariner Bay about to do it. I don't have a reliable source, but I heard a team was created by a government agency," Leonard said.

"When you do schedule a meeting, do tell me how it went," Sheldon sarcastically said.

If Leonard is successful in this I hope Sheldon has no part in the team. Billy thought.

"If that does not work, they maybe I will try to see if I can turn Penny into a real live genie," Leonard said.

"Oh I know what three of the mechanical things can be. One can be a lion. Another can be a tiger. Another can be a bear," Raj said.

"Oh my," everybody said in unison.

"Back to the Halloween costume idea. A lot of the teams had a pink ranger. Who would ours be?" Howard asked.

"Hum, I don't know," Sheldon said.

He put one finger up to his lip while his chin rested in the palm of his hand. His elbow was on the table.

"I don't think Amy would be into something so childish. What about Bernadette?" Sheldon asked.

"I don't know, what about Penny?" Howard asked.

"If I ask her she might laugh, what about... Never mind," Leonard said looking at Raj.

"William, are you with a member of the opposite sex?" Sheldon asked.

"I am married to a woman."

"Then your wife can be pink. Now if you excuse me, I have to go get ready for my next class," Sheldon said.

When Sheldon left Leonard said, "Sorry Billy, Sheldon is always like that when he meets new people."

"Well once he get passed his no talking stage," Howard said.
