Stephanie has moved in with Leonard and Sheldon, according to their roommate contract, though Leonard denies that she is living with them. She tries helping Sheldon with a ringing in his ear, but is unable to help him. After Sheldon walks Leonard through the changes that must be made now that Stephanie has officially moved in, Sheldon tries to have Stephanie check him more thoroughly, but Penny shows up and it turns out that neither Leonard nor Sheldon ever told Stephanie about Penny. The morning does not go well following that; Penny then proves to Leonard that Stephanie is living with him. Stephanie also buys Leonard new clothes to wear that Leonard ends up hating and eventually ruining. Realizing that his relationship with Stephanie is moving too fast for him, Leonard runs to Penny for advice. However, each time Leonard tries to follow Penny’s advice to tell Stephanie how he feels, they instead end up having sex.
Meanwhile, Sheldon sneaks into the hospital to test himself multiple times, as apparently the ringing hasn’t stopped. By the time Leonard gets back, Stephanie has diagnosed him with an inflamed larynx, and instructed him not to speak till he gets better. The episode ends as Sheldon “asks” Penny with a computer for herbal tea & honey.
The title refers to the name of boys’ third-floor neighbor (Mrs. Vartabedian) who’s mentioned in passing during the episode.
