A smitten Wolowitz thinks he’s found his soul mate – until the woman, Dr. Stephanie Barnett (Sara Rue), meets Leonard. Wolowitz invites Stephanie to drive the Mars rover, which winds up stuck in a ditch. Eventually, to hide evidence of what he has done, Wolowitz destroys all the security tapes and hard drives he can find relating to the Mars Rover mission. Leonard has a hard time deciding how to break the news to Howard that he is dating Stephanie. Sheldon, of course, is no help. Leonard decides to go to Howard’s house to tell him himself. While there, Stephanie calls Howard and gives him the news. Howard tells Leonard “you are dead to me,” which lasts until Stephanie invites Howard on a double-date. At the end of the episode, Wolowitz hears the news on TV that the Mars rover has found life on Mars in the bottom of the ditch, but as so much data has been mysteriously lost no one will ever know who made the amazing discovery. The episode closes with Wolowitz remarking “Son of a bitch!”
The title refers to Sheldon adopting an expanded form of the game Rock-paper-scissors, called Rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock.
