This episode was one of the best. I could watch it over and over again. Perfect conclusion for Leonard and Beverly. Penny standing up for her husband. Loved how things ended for Stuart and Denise. Good for Raj not giving up on his romantic movie ending, even though I liked Anu but wasn't a perfect match for Raj. Howard and Raj had a perfect bromance moment. Sheldon is really conceded when wanting all Beverly's attention. Like Amy said that is Leonard's mom. Here is a conclusion through Penny's POV just because even though not really needed. But I love writing too much.
Continuation 12x22: Penny's POV
I couldn't believe the nerve what Beverly was pulling. I couldn't blame Leonard being so angry. He fooled him, actually fooled us that she might actually spending quality time. But no, it was all research to Beverly. Leonard was so angry he stormed out, even slamming the door. I have seen my husband upset, even with me at points, but never like this. I tired reasoning with the woman but that gone nowhere just making me angry. I even growled out of frustration towards my mother in law. I just sat there not saying another word to her. Now I wished I went after Leonard to comfort him. But at the same time he needed this time to himself. So when ge came in and told me he needed a moment to talk to Beverly, I dashed off.
Now I am sitting on the edge of the bed with the door open just in case my husband needs me. But what I can hear, it seems Beverly needs the rescuing. I've known Beverly for many years now and it is sad to say she treats me better than her own son. If he writes Beverly out of gis life, I will make sure he will always have me.
Suddenly I hear something that concerns me. Silence, nothing, just no noise at all. I can not contain myself and see what is happening. As I walked out to the hallway and faced the living room I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. There was my mother-in-law hugging my husband and he was hugging her back as their foreheads gently pressed together. I could tell it was a genuine sincere hug between mother and son. One that was much needed for both of them. I suddenly felt my lips quiver and my heart beat so hard, I placed my hand over it. My other hand went over my mouth to sigh into it as I felt tears run down my cheek. Before I could ruin this moment, I quickly back up and walk back to the bedroom fighting the tears. But they wouldn't stop. I shut the door and lean against it as I cry the happiest tears in a long time. I was not only happy for my husband but I was happy for Beverly.
After a while I sat back on my bed and waited for Leonard. When he did walk through our bedroom I looked at him and asked, "Well?"
He gave me a soft smile and sat beside me. He sighed and took my hand into his and our fingers intertwined. "I forgave her..." That's all he said as he laid his head on my shoulder.
I didn't hold back and swung my free arm around him and squeezed as hard as I could. As Leonard hugged me back that is when I realized that's all I needed to know. My husband was going to be okay.
