The Big Bang Theory - 6x12 - The Egg Salad Equivalency

    Sheldon's assistant, Alex, makes a pass at Leonard.  Leonard isn't interested in pursuing a relationship with her, but he's flattered by it.  Sheldon is annoyed, so he decides that he has to talk to Alex.  This leads to him getting in trouble with HR, and ratting out the other guys for various things.
    This was a funny episode, but also the most uncomfortable.  Normally, Sheldon being a jerk only affects a circle of characters that are all closely knit, so they can deal with it.  In this case, he's being really out of line, and it affects a person who isn't part of their clique.  He also manages to get all the other guys in trouble with HR as well, which seems more uncomfortable to me.
    The one part of the episode that I liked was the last scene, with Penny showing the nerd glasses she bought.  It's a pleasure to see Penny making an effort, even if she still doesn't deserve him.
