At school, all of the students cheer for Sheldon and give him high fives. One of the teenagers picks Sheldon up and spins him around, terrifying the little genius. A cheerleader embraces Sheldon, who points out to his friend that she "hugged me to her bosom." His friend raises his hand up for a high five, but Sheldon declines.
"No more high fives," he says. "I can't keep washing my hands."
In the previous episode, titled "A Therapist, a Comic Book, and a Breakfast Sausage," viewers saw Sheldon choke on a sausage and become scared of eating solid foods again. George (Lance Barber) and Mary (Zoe Perry) took their child to a therapist to help him with his fear, but it did not turn out so well.
At the therapist's waiting room, however, Sheldon discovered comic books and left to find a comic book store without telling his parents. There, he met a new friend and overcame his fear of eating solid foods, thanks in large part to superheroes. By the time he got home, though, his parents had contacted the police because they thought he was missing.
"Young Sheldon" season 1 airs Thursdays, at 8:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
