Episode 10 - The Secret Interrogation

Sheldon finds out the sex of the Hofstadter twins and accidental tells Amy and eventually, Penny.

Halley burst through her parents door, quickly followed by Bernadette. She jumped on her mother's side of the bed and smiled at her father.

"I drew this for you today," She grinned, pulling a large beige piece of paper from behind her back,

"Oh, Halley. Thank you," He smiled, taking it off her, "That's great!"

"How you feeling?" Bernadette asked, walking away from the door,

"Fine.. can I get out of bed?" He asked,

"Howard... the doctor said not for a week case you over do it again. It's only been two days." She sighed, as Howard slammed his head against his pillow,

"Don't go to sleep, daddy, it's only the middle of the day," She laughed,

"Okay, Halley. Come with me," She smiled, getting her off the bed, "Let's leave daddy to relax,"

"It's not happening, I'm counting the days till I get out of here!" He yelled after his wife,

"What's that for?" Amy asked, pointing over at a plain envelope on Leonard's desk,

"Oh, that's what the doctor wrote down today. We don't want it," Leonard sighed,

"I meant what's inside, but okay,"

Leonard looked over at Penny to stop her from saying it.

"If you tell them it has the sex in, Sheldon will plead for it," He whispered, leaning in,

"I'll do what?" Sheldon said, eavesdropping,

"You'll pressure me and Leonard on the envelope and that is says the gender of the twins inside.." Penny mentioned,

"Why?!" Leonard called as Sheldon lifted his head straight.

"I'm sorry," She sighed, gritting her teeth as Leonard flung his head down.

Sheldon lay in bed, awake. He looked over to his side to notice that his alarm said it was just gone midnight. He sat up and placed his feet on the floor, moving them carefully into his slippers.

He slid his way out of bed, being careful not to wake his wife.

He snuck into the apartment across the hall using the spare key he found in he kitchen.

He approached his friends desk, scurrying his hand around. Finally, he reached the envelope.

"Sheldon, what the hell is wrong with you!" Amy shouted, as he sat in silence. "Not only is that an invasion on their privacy, but it was wrong. I can't believe you would do that!"

"I couldn't sleep, knowing that the answer was across that hallway," He sighed, looking up at his wife,

"But you promised not to look yesterday. You've ruined the whole surprise for everyone,"

"How?" He asked, taking a second glance,

"Cause you're going to tell everyone and I bet they don't want to know what they are having!" She gritted through her teeth.

Howard was lying in bed on his phone. Bernadette walked in the room and gave him the hot beverage in her hand.

"Hey, what you doing?" She asked, sitting next to him and handing him the tea cup,

"Oh, I found this game on the App Store, it's kinda addicting," He said, hardly looking up to greet her,

"What's it called,"

"Best Fiends." He beamed, eyes glued to the screen, "This character is called Howie," Pointing out the water animated creature.

"How much money did you spend on that game, Howie?" She noticed,

"Not a dime. It's free,"

"Is that how you're spending your time now?"

"Yep.."

Bernadette smiled at she left the room, closing the door behind her.

"Hey," Penny smiled walking into Bernadette's office,

"Hey, what's up?" She asked, filing away some papers.

"I don't know," She sighed, as Bernadette laughed.

Penny sat down in the chair opposite her and asked a few questions on her drug her team was working on.

Suddenly, the subject got changed,

"Has Amy told you she knows the sex of the twins?"

"What?!" Penny called,

"Or maybe she hasn't?..."

"You know the sex of mine and Leonard's twins?" Penny yelled, bursting through the door of Sheldon and Amy's apartment.

Amy turned in pure horror, sighing under her breath.

"It wasn't my fault. Sheldon found out and told me.."

Penny looked behind her to find Leonard and Sheldon both outside the door across the hall.

"Penny, are you okay?" Leonard asked, getting closer to her,

"Yeah, I'm completely fine,"

"Was that sarcasm?" Sheldon asked, tilting his head,

"Yes, Sheldon, that was sarcasm," Leonard sighed,

"Leonard, go into the apartment, I'll meet you in there."

Leonard trailed across the hall and shut the door behind him.

"What's going on?" Sheldon asked, walking into his apartment,

"Penny's mad at you," Amy said, returning to her work.

"I'm mad at you too..." Penny sighed, "But we both know that isn't going to last cause it wasn't your fault. It was his,"

Sheldon looked over in confusion. He walked over to Amy and quietly asked what was going on.

"You found out what the twins are.." She whispered back,

"Oh, that's why she's mad," He sighed,

"Yes, Sheldon, that is why I'm mad. What are they?"

"What?" Amy asked, shock filling her whole body,

"I said, what are they? I can't keep not wanting to know, cause I really do. I'm only not finding out cause Leonard doesn't want to,"

"But, Leonard's not finding out because you said you didn't want to," Sheldon admitted as Penny looked again, "Dear Lord, it's like the Comic-Con 2017 thing over again,"

"What Comic-Con thing?"

"Oh, Yeah. It's when you said you'd go to Comic-Con to make Leonard happy, and he was only letting you go to make you happy,"

"Okay, let's stop talking about Comic-Con.." Penny sighed, hoping to change the subject, "Sheldon..."

"Okay, fine. If you really want to know, it's twin boys."
