The Big Bang Theory - The Dependence Transcendence

“The Dependence Transcendence” juggles three separate amusing, although mostly forgettable, storylines. Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Howard (Simon Helberg) struggle to make their deadline to the Air Force while dealing with Sheldon‘s (Jim Parsons) overreaction to his first energy drink.
