Zoe Perry: Mary Cooper

Quotes 

• James T. Kirk : [William Shatner as James T. Kirk, in Season 1, Episode 23 of Star Trek, A Taste of Armageddon, is playing on television]  They'll want to do the same. Only the next attack they launch will do a lot more than just count up numbers on a computer.

  Mary Cooper : What are you doing?

  Sheldon Cooper : Dad and I are watching Star Trek.

  [George Senior is snoring] 

  Sheldon Cooper : I guess I'm watching Star Trek.

  Mary Cooper : Want me to watch with you?

  Sheldon Cooper : Sure. Let me catch you up. The Enterprise is traveling to miniar VII to resolve their war with the neighboring Vendikar.

  Mary Cooper : Uh-huh.

  Sheldon Cooper : But Kirk suspects that instead of having a real war, the miniaries and the Vendikaries are having a computer-simulated conflict.

  Mary Cooper : Uh-huh.

  Sheldon Cooper : In Kirk's opinion, by keeping the horrors of war at arm's length, they're simply prolonging it.

  Mary Cooper : Let me ask you something.

  Sheldon Cooper : Answers are my thing. Go for it.

  Mary Cooper : Do you really believe in all this space alien stuff?

  Sheldon Cooper : Well, it's simple probability theory. There are over a hundred billion stars in our galaxy. So it's likely that a few of them could support life, or even technological civilization.

  Mary Cooper : And did Jesus die for their sins as well?

  Sheldon Cooper : You have your stories, I have mine.

  Mary Cooper : [door closes]  Whew. Sounds like Georgie's home. George, wake up. Watch Star Trek with your son.
