"Yes, and that's my bid." "You bid 800 dollars?" "Yes, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing" "I figured it would go for thousands and I just wanted to be a part of it." "There's only 30 seconds left in the auction." "Do you have 800 dollars?" "Not to blow on a miniature time machine." "Oh don't worry, the way this thing works is people waiting till the last seconds to bid and then they swoop in and get it." "It's called sniping." "15 seconds." "Come on snipers." "Ten, nine, eight..." "Where are your snipers?" " Five" " Snipe!" " Four" " Snipe!" " Three" " Snipe!" " Two" " Snipe!" "One..." "Congratulations!" "You are a proud owner of a miniature time machine." "You lucky duck." "I wonder why no one else bid" "This is a classic piece of sci-fi movie memorabilia." "I know!" "I still can't afford it." "Why don't we share it?" "Well each put 200 bucks and we'll take turns having it in our house." "A time shared time machine." "I'm in." "Sheldon?" "Need you ask?"

"If my fingers ever work again" "I've got a job for the middle one." "Oh hey guys." "Hi Penny." "Take a break guys." "What are you doing?" "We're just, you know, moving something upstairs." "What is it?" "Just, you know, a time machine." "Yeah, ok, neat, but I really gotta get to work, so..." " Just give us a few minutes." " I don't have a few minutes." "I'm running really late." "I have a sample solution." "Go up to the roof, hop over the next building" "There's a small gap" " don't look down if you suffer the vertigo - and use their stairway." "You're joking, right?" "I never joke when it comes to vertigo." "Damn..." "Ok, I'll just take the roof." "Hey, if you wait for us to set up the time machine" "I can drop you off to work yesterday." "Time travel... jokes." "Nevermind." "For what it's worth, I thought it was humorous." "Let's just do this." "Guys, ready to push?" "In a minute." "Howard stepped outside to throw up." "I don't know what you're worried about." "I think it really works in the room." "Yeah." "It is by far the coolest thing" "I've ever owned."

"I was gonna put down a towel." "I still want it on my balcony." "I say we move it on a bimonthly basis." " Yeah, that sounds fair" " Hold on." ""bimonthly" is an ambiguous term." "Do you mean moving it every other month or twice a month?" " Twice a month." " Then no." "Ok, every other month." "No." "Sheldon, you can't be selfish."

"But if you all go back to the same point and time" "Bell's lab is going to get very crowded." "He'll know something's up."

"Knock on the door and say to Mrs Bell" "Hey, Mrs Bell, I'm a big fan of your husband" "Can I come in and watch him inventing the telephone?" "Mrs Bell was deaf" "She's not even going to hear you knock." "I have a solution." "First, go into the future and obtain a cloaking device." "How far into the future?"

"Pathethic!" "all of you!" "Completely pathethic" "My turn" "Leonard, it's 2:00 in the morning" "So?" "So it's my turn." "Why did you set it for the day before yesterday?" "Because I wanna go back and keep myself from getting a time machine." "You can't." "If you would prevent yourself from buying it in the past you wouldn't have it available in the present to travel back and stop yourself from buying it." "Ergo, you'd still have it." "This is a classic working time-travel mistake." "Can I go back and prevent you from explaining that to me?" "Same paradox" "If you were to travel back in time and, say, knock me unconscious you would not then have the conversation that irritated you motivating you to knock me unconscious."

"in "Back to the future" Marty McFly got the opportunity to hook up with his extremely attractive young mother." "Those are movies." "Of course they are movies." "Were you expecting me to come up with an example involving a real-life time machine?" "It's absurd." "Come on, guys, push!" "If I push any harder" "I'm gonna give birth to my colon." "Hi guys." "Hi Penny." "Take a break guys!" "What are you doing?" "Oh, you know... just moving a... time machine." "Yeah, ok, neat, but I really gotta get to work, so..." "No problem" "Hang on." "But, what about your time machine?" "Something more important than the toys" "I'm scared" "Don't worry baby." "I've got you." "It's still my turn." "What are you doing?" "I'm packing up all my collectibles and taking them down at the comic books store to sell." "Was that really necessary?" "If you need money you can always sell blood." "and semen." "Not about money" "We brought food!" "Lox and bagels, the breakfast for time travellers." "Terrific" "Does anyone want to buy my share of the time machine?" "Why?" "I don't want it anymore." "Why?" "just...personal reason" "My spidy sense tells me this has something to do with Penny." "Look," " Do you want to buy me out or not?" " I'll give you 100 dollars, which will make me half owner and we'll put it on my balcony." "Screw his balcony" "I'll give you 120 and we'll put it in my garage." "I paid 200 dollars for my share." "Dude, everybody knows a time machine loses half his value the minute you drive him off the lot." "I go for 200 and that time machine stands right where it is." "300, and I'll throw in my original 1979 Mattel Millennium Falcon with real light speed sound effects." "No, no more toys or action figures or props or replicas or costumes or robots or Darth Vader's voice changers." "I'm getting rid of all of it" "You can't do that." "Look at what you've created here." "It's like "Nerdvana"." "More importantly, you have a Darth Vader's voice changer?" "Not for long." "Oh, I call dibs on the Golden Age Flash." "Hang on, I need that to complete my Justice Society of America collection." "Too bad, I called dibs." " You can't just call dibs." " I can and I did" "Look at "dibs" on the Wikipedia." "Dibs doesn't apply in a bidding war." "It's not a bidding war." "I'm selling it all to Larry down at the comic books store." "Why Larry?" "Did Larry call dibs?" "Would you forget dibs?" "He offered me a fair price for the whole collection." "What's the number?" "I'll match it." "I'll match it plus 1000 rupies" " What's the exchange rate?" " None of your business." "Take it or leave it." "Mom, my Bar Mitzvah bond how much have I got?" "Thanks." "I can go 2.600 dollars and two trees in Israel." "Forget it."

"And who is that japanese feline I see frawn looking at your shorts?" "Hello, hello Kitty!" "Okay." "Okay,look this is about yesterday, Leonard." "I'm really sorry about what i said" " I was jus upset" " No, i needed to heard it" "No, you didn't Look you're great guy it's the things you love that make who you are" "I guess that makes me "Large breasts"" "Still I think it's time for me to get rid of this stuff and, you know move on with my life." "Really?" "Oh" "Wow, good for you" "Thanks" "Hey, do you want..." "I don't know, later..." "Excuse me.." "Hi Penny Hi Mike" "You're ready to go?" "yeah, i just have to change" "I give you a hand" "Stop it!" "Bye guys" "My turn on the time machine!" "It worked" "It really worked" "They said i was mad, but it worked!" "Oh no!" "Not Morlocks!" "Not flash-eating Morlocks!" "Help!" "Sheldon, you okay?" "We have to get rid of the time machine." "It's too little big for the living room, isn't it?" "yeah, that's the problem." "It's too big."
