Meanwhile, Mary Cooper, exhausted from managing a household that includes a chain-smoking, football-obsessed husband (George Sr.) and a twin brother (Georgie) who’s discovered cologne, decides to buy an expensive, tacky plexiglass snow globe as a "treat for myself."

The episode shines when Sheldon, armed with a typewriter and zero social grace, tries to submit his manuscript to the university library. The librarian’s deadpan "We don’t accept fiction in the science section" is a gem.
