Howard and Raj were handing out that week's takeout, chattering about the new neighbor Penny. Sheldon was in his usual spot on his phone when he glanced up.

"Doesn't she have a roommate?"

Howard looked at him wide-eyed, "So there's now two hot girls across the hall?"

Leonard huffed as he sat down with his box of takeout, "We don't know if she's 'hot'. Why are you being so objective anyway?"

Raj rolled his eyes, "Come on. Are you seriously telling me that you don't care if Penny's friend is hot?"

Sheldon opened his mouth to say that no, in fact, he didn't care. But Leonard cut him off with a wave of his hand, "No, no I care. Let's go see."

Howard, Raj, and Leonard scrambled to their feet and hustled out the door. The three men hesitated in front of Penny's apartment before knocking.
