Air Date: December 14, 2017 Title: "An Eagle Feather, a String Bean, and an Eskimo"
Why does an "Eskimo" appear in the title? It’s the brand of the refrigerator Sheldon hides behind when he’s trying to avoid his father’s disappointment. Classic Sheldon. What did you think of S01E10? Was Sheldon right to return the feather? Let me know in the comments below!
In a moment of desperation, Sheldon lies to an elderly woman to sell a subscription. He immediately feels the weight of this sin. He returns the ill-gotten "Eagle Feather" to his father, confesses, and learns that integrity is worth more than a telescope. The B-Plot: Mary vs. The Atheist While the boys are hustling magazines, Mary is trying to save the soul of Dr. Sturgis (Wallace Shawn). She invites him to a church potluck. Dr. Sturgis, being the socially oblivious genius he is, agrees—not to find Jesus, but to critique the "flavor profiles" of the casseroles.
