- Synopsis: A smitten Howard thinks he's found his soul mate, until the woman, Dr. Stephanie Barnett (Sara Rue), meets Leonard. Howard invites Stephanie to drive the Mars rover at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, but the plan fails when the rover winds up stuck in a Martian ditch. Subsequently, to hide evidence of what he did, Howard destroys all the security tapes and hard drives relating to the mission. Afterwards, Leonard has a hard time deciding how to tell Howard that he has started dating Stephanie. Leonard decides to go to Howard's house to tell him personally, but while there, Stephanie calls Howard and gives him the news. Howard becomes very upset with Leonard, but this only lasts until Stephanie sets up Howard with another friend, and invites him on a double-date. In the end, Howard hears the news on TV that the rover found water on Mars in the bottom of the ditch, but as so much data was "inexplicably" lost no one will know who was responsible for the amazing discovery. The episode is titled for its minor sub-plot where Sheldon and Raj play a game of rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock, which is "The Lizard-Spock Expansion" of the traditional game of rock-paper-scissors. They play to decide who gets to watch what on TV, but they choose Spock. They, along with Howard, play the game for the last dumpling. When they choose Spock again, They play it for one of them not holding up Spock, but they chose Spock again.
