Honestly, I know it's a throw away punchline, but i think this can be overanalyzed to being a subtly sweet moment. Sheldon is generally the smartest person in the room. If you have doubts about that he'll assure you that he is. He does know that he's not knowledgeable about everything, though. He knows nothing about tires. He knows his brother is an expert on tires. If Georgie says "buy new," then by god Sheldon's gonna buy new. He may not have a lot of respect for his brother's chosen field of expertise, but he does respect his brother's knowledge in it.

He's also not being critical of the way Sheldon is in this scene, he realises his brother is different and he doesn't judge him for it, he just gets exasperated by it sometimes.

Crescentknight8189 Another possibility is because of the different way of thinking(at least I think) is not reading or percepting it the same due to cut back of certain portions and acceleration in other's. The way Sheldon would react would also be different from the normal person simply even based on this so his experience isn't perse distorted(possibly is distorted everyone is different after all) I would think but like a different lense entirely that's another possibility.

George Sr loved all his children equally in their own way, but you could tell Mary definitely played favourites with Sheldon, and just couldn't see the man George was becoming.

Love how sheldons other brother got him to apologize to his real brother

[@Godfather_Al]

2:15 aaaaaand he's back

[@terryprideaux]

This episode sure does show he really loves his brother. And it also ties well with the younger Georgie and Sheldon. I hope they show when their father died in the new series. Jim Parsons also lost his own father when he was young.

[@patwaters-actormoviereviewer]

Unbelievable Sheldon's family 1. Laurie Metcalfe as his mother 2. Courtney Henggeler as his sister 3. June Squibb as his MeeMaw and now 4. Jerry O'Connell as his brother

I knew leonard was gonna weep..coz i almost teared up and leonard is worse than me

[@JesseOptimist123]

Brothers are Partners. Brotherly love is how we have positive moments to keep. That’s what I’m grateful for. I love you bro. Your the best brother ever❤❤❤

[@lunaponce4068]

I feel like Georgie taking care of his family after their dad’s death is what leads to his and Mandy’s divorce. He’s stretched to thin and Mandy is also stressing with CeeCee and missing her husband, they will bottle it up tho bc neither wants to talk about and they think it’s for the best until it breeds resentment and all blows up in their face

[@haustyl12]

That’s the thing about being the oldest sibling. The parents always ask the most of them but gives all the attention to the younger siblings. Always a thankless job

[@kadenandthespiderok663]

He really did take care of the family 😢

[@vegasgirl3538]

The context of this scene is so much more emotional after Young Sheldon.

[@gunawanputera6443]

I really liked what georgie said, life is hard for you, but isnt mean is easy for rest of us

[@crisostomoibarra6350]

Who would've thought georgie jr would grow up as a responsible man?

[@tranthony1768]

Crisostomo Ibarra It is reasonable though. After their father died, he stepped up and became the man of the house and had to take care of his mom and sister. What Sheldon described of his brother was one sided.

[@qelizabeth_i_5013]

In Sheldon’s defense, they actively hid the struggles from him. Especially for someone like Sheldon who doesn’t do well with social cues, it seems a bit unfair to get mad at him for not knowing.

[@swan_909]

Blame Mary for that. Missy and Georgie and George didn't coddle him like Mary. Considering sheldon is an adult now, the responsibility for his own actions lies on him. I would understand not picking things up when you are a kid but as an adult that excuse doesn't stick. He has friends, girlfriend and you are telling me he couldn't figure out that losing her husband would be rough for Mary Missy and Georgie? Also taking first step to patch things up with Georgie doesn't require social skill. That just requires love and no ego.

[@emmanuel.b5976]

I love Georgie, he's a great guy. Wow I can't believe he made all those sacrifices.

[@SharpDesign]

Damn, this scene hits even harder after seeing George Sr gone.

[@mohamedkhalafamath2504]

Damn, they both look like giants next to Leonard.

[@samaraisnt]

[@sijustinkasi4524]

Lol

[@barracuda0405]

Leonard is just a shorty

[@CainEverest]

Literally me and my brother had a reconciliation like this a couple years ago. It felt good to finally clear the air and just let go of all our grievances. My brother wasn't as far on the spectrum as me, but he never let me think my disability was a disability. He just told me, like my dad, that I just see the world differently. I was at his wedding - not his best man mind you, but it meant the world to watch him get married and I even gave a wonderful speech that he and his wife loved. I love my brother and I will fight for him. He may not have been the best, but he was genuine and he loves me. And that's all I can really ask for

[@hellosweetpookie937]

this definitely made sense after watching the young sheldon series finale. At first how i was kind of disatisfaction with mary and missy's ending knowing how georgie and mandy will have his own series+ seen Sheldon's future (big bang theory). We've only seen the glimpse of their grieving.

[@Wing-Zero-si1eu]

After watching the Young Sheldon finale, it’s hard for these 2 that it would take Georgie 2 decades for Sheldon to finally apologize for not thanking him for being there for him. Their father would be very proud at them to finally act like brothers. Now I just can’t wait to see what Georgie & Mandy would explained what happened after Sheldon left for CalTech.

[@heayawnkim7369]

Georgie is a sweetheart.... He has made a lot of sacrifices for his family

[@angelorski]

"Because I was protecting you too..." Man that was a tearjerker

[@shadowrealmmedia9448]

I guess in a way, Sheldon sees his father in his older brother, this really proves it when he's the only one he apologized to and meant it, just like George Cooper Sr. when they had emotional times in Young Sheldon

[@xkilsonx]

The writers knew that by the time Leonard said his last line that everyone would've been feeling a similar way, so they added that bit of comedy relief, which makes my heart happy lol

[@SpeedBoltz]

Honestly,Hearing Georgie’s speech about The Cooper Family is even more gut wrenching since Young Sheldon is ending tomorrow with George’s Sr.’s death.

[@danashaul1922]

who’s here after we’ve seen this happen on young sheldon😢😢😢

[@QixTheDS]

Now here’s the real question: Is George telling you to buy new rather than patch, because he truly cares or because he wants to sell tires?

[@Initiallyleo]

Bit of both, I think. A new tire is probably safer than a previously damaged one, and there’s more profit in selling more tires. There’s also an argument to be made that he changed policies when he took a less hands on approach to repairing the tires and got more into growing the business and making big deals, as YS showed that Georgie’s ability to find the damage in a tire was shockingly good and instinctual, meaning it couldn’t be taught to his employees.
