‘The Big Bang Theory’ season 6, episode 8 preview: The confrontation

Dr. Sheldon Cooper is a man of many mysteries … at least when it comes to how there can be a human being out there that has so many robot characteristics. On Thursday night’s new episode of “The Big Bang Theory” season 6, at least one of his many mysteries will be solved in why in the world the man is insistent upon doing the same thing every day at 2:45.

In the full sneak peek from this episode below (via SpoilerTV), Howard and Raj even confront the doctor, and do just about everything that they can to delay him from executing his mission. Unfortunately, they are not successful, and Sheldon pretty much stops any attempt that they are making to converse dead in their tracks. Too bad, guys.

We have already seen a few hints of just what this mission could be courtesy of some Canadian promos, and we almost wish that we hadn’t. One of the most entertaining parts of this episode is seeing just how the pieces to this puzzle slowly start to fit together, and the reaction on Howard and Raj’s faces when they finally figure it out makes it that much more priceless as a result. We have personally promoted this episode on end for weeks since it really feels like it has the makings of a “Big Bang Theory” classic: it’s focused more on the characters who have been around since the beginning, is a hilarious idea, and we are sure that the writers would not have gone down this road for the episode unless there was some sort of stellar payoff at the very end of it.

What do you think we are going to see as the solution to Sheldon’s 2:45 crisis?
