Penny's apartment.
Sheldon sits in the new green chair, reading a textbook and typing on his laptop " Thanks for letting me work here while Leonard Skypes with his girlfriend."
Penny smiles over at him "Oh, it's no problem. It's actually kind of nice. You reading, me reading. We're like an old married couple"
" If we were an old married couple, the wife would serve iced tea and snickerdoodles."
Penny doesn't look up from her magazine, just smiles smugly and says "cooler to your left."
Sheldon looks astonished "how did you know?"
He moves a stack of magazines and opens the cooler lid to reveal a cornucopia of snacks.
" Ice tea. Cookies." he checks the packaging suspiciously "All in date as well. Oooh red vines!"
Penny smiles a little smile to herself and keeps reading. "You can be kind of predictable. So I found a place online that delivers candy and junk food. The dash buttons on the lid will order you more."
"Fantastic! what place was it? Are they sanitary and trustworthy.? "
"Erm.. I should hope so". She looks slightly sheepish. "as it's Your Amazon account. You remember you said I could get a few things for us? "
"Indeed I did."
"Well, I decided to do a little Sheldon prediction and got a few things to make life less stressful for the both of us. Like non slip bath ducks, a hanging shoe organiser for me, a UV light for your toothbrush, that cooler. Best thing is they deliver. You don't mind do you?
"No, I admire your initiative. I now have both ice tea and cookies and don't have to leave my seat. "
he wiggles in the seat "and I must say, I am enjoying your new chair."
Penny smiles "It's great, isn't it?"
Sheldon nods, wiggling in the chair "It is. Aligns the lumbar, cradles the coccyx, balances the buttocks. This is a chair truly worthy of the name Chair."
Penny: Oh, all right, well, I'm glad you like it. As its your new chair.
Sheldon looks up at her, startled. she continues "I saw one when I was out and about a few days ago and loved it so I ordered you a nice new clean one. "
Sheldon jumps up. "You bought me a chair?!.? "
"well, technically you bought yourself a chair, but yes"
Hyperventilating he circles it, eyes wild.
Penny looks frightened. "Sheldon, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
He stammers. "no, no, it's just a chair like this is a very personal thing. It's a seat, a throne, It's the manifestation of your ideal spot given form.."
He turns and suddenly hugs her. "I must be blind, I didn't realise our relationship had reached such levels of understanding and intimacy."
She wraps her arms around him then looks him in the face, happy but puzzled
"Sheldon, last night when you went down on me you spelled out all the state capitals with your tongue and I damn near forgot my name. But it's a chair that's special and intimate?
"Oh definitely."
"You have some very screwy priorities "
He smiles and leans closer, biting her earlobe. His voice is hot on her neck as he whispers " there are only 50 state capitals but there are 118 elements in the periodic table, shall I teach you them all?
She gives him a puzzled frown then goes wide eyed and giggles as he leads her to the bedroom.
