- TriviaUpon Sheldon's return from the model train store, Leonard asks him, "Rough night, Casey Jones?" Casey Jones was an American railroad engineer who worked for the Illinois Central Railroad until he was killed in a train collision. Leonard may have simply been referencing the '50s TV show Casey Jones (1957).
- GoofsSheldon tells Penny that the last piece of food, the "greng jai (or kreng jai) piece," is reserved for the most deserving member of the group. While the concept of greng jai is difficult to translate into western-world languages, this is far from the truth. Greng jai is the custom of observing, acknowledging, and respecting the feelings of others - something that Sheldon is incapable of doing.

I have long believed that we as human beings are genetically inclined to elevate and worship those of us we deem to be very beautiful or very talented. We do this because we are somehow comforted by our adoration. It makes us feel good. As children we sleep beneath the images of movie, TV, music and sports stars and dream about the mystery and grandeur of their lives. As adults, the posters come off the wall, only to be replaced by a steady, noxious stream of tabloid culture. But perhaps most enjoyable of all is watching the fall from grace. Nothing beats a good ol' public crucifixion. Especially when it's self-inflicted. My theory for why this is considered entertainment is, again, a genetic one. DNA, even if it's mediocre, wants to ensure its own survival. The existence of superior DNA is viewed as a threat. When beautiful and talented people screw up, we can't help but feel that this somehow improves the chances for our mediocre descendants to eat meat. In other words, evolution my ass.

Little Trains
After a battle between Bernadette and Howard involving living with his mother after their marriage, Sheldon has had enough and gets dropped off at a model train store. Sheldon refuses to take Amy to the wedding of a couple colleagues so Leonard is pushed into it. It turns out they actually have fun. Clueless Amy makes the most of it. The scenes in Howard's bedroom with Bernadette are really creepy.
