Penny and Bernadette noticed that Amy did not participate in Girl's Night as she normally would. She had used work as an excuse to avoid her friends and Sheldon for days. Penny worried that Sheldon may have upset Amy and decided to pay Amy a visit.

Penny knocked cautiously and waited. She heard the distinct sound of shuffling within the apartment before Amy came to the door. Amy looked distraught with her eyes showing the tell tale signs of weeping.

"Amy, are you alright?" Penny asked in concern

Amy nodded mutely as an internal battle conflicted her.

"Did something happen?" Penny asked soothingly

Amy hesitated before she spoke," I am pregnant,"

Penny froze and Amy came close to sobbing again.

"Wait, What?" Penny asked once more

"I am pregnant," Amy said more confidently," With Sheldon's baby,"

"Sheldon had sex with you!" Penny exclaimed finally

"He doesn't know," Amy whispered

"Well, I'm sure he'll be happy. He finally had sex with you so he should know that could mean a child," Penny rambled

"He doesn't know that we had coitus," Amy clarified

"How—c-co-could he not know?" Penny exclaimed in disbelief

"I sort off drugged him," Amy said as she began to tell the tale from the spiked drink to the following events.

Penny listened carefully and watched as her friend was torn between her love for Sheldon and her love for Sheldon's child, her child.

"I think you should tell him," Penny said softly," I will always stand with you,"

Amy nodded and decided to rip the bandage off. She called Sheldon to say that she had important news and she would be over right away.

Penny offered to drive her and Amy agreed, unsure if she would be able to drive in her mental state. Penny once again asked if Amy would like moral support and Amy declined

"I'll talk to him alone," Amy said firmly

Penny asked Leonard to join her in the hallway so that Amy and Sheldon could have some privacy.

"Sheldon, I am pregnant with your child," Amy announced as soon as they were alone

"That is impossible. We never had coitus," Sheldon said condescendingly

"I – I dr-d-," Amy hesitated," I contaminated your drink with a love potion by accident," Amy lied

"And it worked?" Sheldon asked nervously

"Yes, Sheldon, I am pregnant with your child," Amy said forcefully

"You have to get an abortion," Sheldon decided

"No! This is my child," Amy cried

"Don't be silly. It is just a ball of cells," Sheldon said with a dismissive wave

Amy made a sudden decision," Sheldon, I am keeping this baby with or without your help. I am breaking up with you and if you don't change your mind, you can forget knowing your future child,"

"I won't change my mind," Sheldon said as if she were kidding

"Then, goodbye Sheldon Lee Cooper. Neither I nor my child will ever see you again." Amy said bravely as she stepped out of the apartment and broke into tears.

Penny led a distraught Amy into her apartment and consoled her friend. She was suddenly angry at Sheldon for even suggesting getting rid of the child.

Leonard was informed of everything and even he was angry at Sheldon.


"Leonard, Penny broke up with me," Sheldon said sadly," She was the perfect one,"

"I don't blame her. You acted like a bastard," Leonard said with malice

Sheldon was left alone in the now dark apartment, bewildered. He, super genius and theoretical physicist had finally found a daunting task. Sheldon felt his mind being led into images of Amy and himself surrounded by young children.

"My child, my gift to the world, my legacy," He whispered

In that time span of mere hours, Sheldon Cooper went from a condescending and intimacy challenged scientist to being a hopeful and expectant father.

"For science," Sheldon said half-heartedly as an explanation to himself. Sheldon finally understood the relationship between parents and their children.

He had mocked his sister for speaking of her unborn child so fondly but know he wanted nothing more than to brag about his child, a child that would inherit it's parents intelligence and good looks.

Sheldon decided that this would be a sacrifice for the greater good. If he overcame his fear, he may gift the world of science the gift it needed to progress.

For Science!
