Missy is just like me too. I was mess and then being mean to everyone, I got into fight to whoever trying to mess with me, I was being jerk to my family too. Back then I was lost myself, one day I told everyone in funeral it's just disease, be glad he's not being killed, back then I was trying to toughen myself, but then it makes me ended up crying like mad and breaking everything.

Sheldon going into SILENT mode and replaying the last moments with his father in his head (over and over again) made perfect sense to me. It rang VERY TRUE. OTOH... I was very angry with Missy when she didn't understand her brother's attempt to process his grief and she yelled at him.

@@obseed3041 Agreed. And the way I see it (since I acted very similarly when my grandpa died in 1988) she didn't even TRY to understand that he WAS grieving in his own way, and "thinking about Star Trek" was relative to that grief because he was comparing and contrasting scenarios based upon what was familiar to him. When Missy yelled at Sheldon for "not caring" I grew ANGRY with her (even though she's just a character) because I KNEW what Sheldon was feeling.

[@HardinProuductionsOriginal]

Happier? What? No 😂. Do you even understand Storytelling? This send off was perfectly abd beautifully poetic.

[@russelconor8704]

This was absolutely brilliant writing, and it portrayed brilliantly Sheldon's grief. If anything, his grief was the most heartbreaking! He is an unusual kid who always had trouble expressing his emotions, he always felt like an alien among people, and even his own family doesn't understand him, or his emotions, like Missy here. Georgie never understood Sheldon either, but of course, this scene also brilliantly reminds us, that this is why we should never judge people by the surface: because the most important things, emotions that define us, happen inside, and we never know what the other person goes through. Sheldon is very much alone with all of this: with grief, with himself. This also explains why Sheldon hates change which was explored in the Big Bang Theory - because the first biggest, most profound change that happened in his life was deeply traumatic: his father's death. Which changed everything for the family, not just economically. So change, is still a trauma for Sheldon, even in his adulthood. It's really amazing how good these two shows are now connected to each other, and fit together, regarding Sheldon's life, and he is the main character on TBBT, let's be honest. But even while being so misunderstood, Sheldon still, constantly, makes an effort to care about others, even if these attempts fail or other people don't see it. Deep down, Sheldon has an enormous heart, he just can't express himself in a typical way. This scene here, when Sheldon is first replaying in his mind, the iconic goodbye between Spock and Kirk (it was cut off here), and then the alternate realities where he is saying goodbye to his dad in different ways in each of them, was gutwrenching! It's so relatable to all of us, and yet so different at the same time. We all, at least once in our lives were at this point when we just wanted a second chance to talk to or see a loved one we lost, just for a second. And yet we can't have that chance again. At the same time, Sheldon's unique, logical & scientific imagination, brings him atypical, original fantasies, that in his mind, maybe would be possible someday in the future, in some parallel worlds? He so desperately wanted to get another chance to see his dad, fix their misunderstandings, and just see his dad still alive and well! I cried like hell. Here is the boy who was always misunderstood and who doesn't understand himself, saying "I love you' to his dead father in countless different ways. Because this is what it is - each of this version of goodbye, is really Sheldon saying 'I love you' to his dad! Brilliant, brilliant episode and ending!

They just look at each other with the most "What just happend?" face. We cut to Sheldon just to sitting next to his dad at the bar. George and his buds pondering if they had too much to drink as there's a grown ass man who knows everything about everyone, claiming to be Sheldon and while hard to believe , given how he acts and talks it might just be true. Sheldon just tells him about his friends, wife and kids with George half believing him at first, and Sheldon finally saying "I missed you dad", there he sees that its his boy and he just smiles knowing everything turned out alright with him.

[@aditipant249]

I just understood what is happening here. Sheldon understands time travel so he knows according to TBBT that even if he goes back in time he cant prevent his dad from dying because that has already happened. So even in his AR if he goes back in time Goerge will still die because if he doesn't then the future Sheldon will not want to go back in time in the first place and wont go back which will result in his death anyway. So he is just imagining how he could have made the most of the situation. And yes their discussion about the funeral is absolutely mundane to him because that would not change the basic facts at all. His dad is still dead anything they do now doesn't matter. Thats why he is imagining his last moment when he was alive.

This is the single most relatable display of grief I have ever seen as an autistic person.

Thing is, he didn't say he was thinking about alternate realities or even about his last moment with their dad.

​@@jaredsandoval1941exactly what could happen in the spinoff. They left a few things open ended like Memaw still needing to finish her community service. I do hope they keep Dale around, because he was a great addition.

[@teencritik5512]

Missy is such a hypocrite, accusing Sheldon of not caring for his father while she herself doesn’t care about her own twin brother and even wishes him dead. I actually prefer Sheldon over Missy because Sheldon has shown more moments of caring for Missy like watching her after she runs away, prevent her of hanging out with a mean girl, talking with her about her favorite show even tough he dislike it, he even told her that he cares for her and that he would miss her.

He regrets not saying goodbye.😢

[@MrsGisawesome]

The last one had me in tears... By an absolute fluke I saw my brother in the city the day before he died. I jumped off a tram and pretended to bump into him - he had left home after a fight with my mum. I talked briefly and suggested he come back to get his medication (He was 28 and hated people fussing over him.) He didnt and died the next day. I have often replayed that few minutes in my head and wished things ended differently.

[@Andrew_BIake]

NGL, this is the kind of thing I think about all the time with my grandparents. I was 11 when my grandad died and was under the impression that everything would be fine (he had cancer, he’d been a smoker all his life), wish I’d not been so ignorant that everything would be fine and spent more time with him! My Nan died when I was 15 as shortly after my grandad died, she had some kind of virus which stayed dormant until that point, which basically made her bedbound.

[@Brothabone1977]

Poor Sheldon and Missy both. Missy is angry and Sheldon is plain shook.

[@haddy106]

People are saying he doesnt tell george to go to the hospital, but it wouldnt make sense. Thats not something youd just say to someone Sheldon is thinking about the last thing he wishes hed said to his father, not what he could have done to prevent the situation. In the end he never said anything at all, not even at the funeral

[@GO-AT-77]

The "Shut up jeff"🤣🤣

[@Kirisutekarl]

Never know when your last time with them will be. make every moment count, and try to make it the best. Cause sometimes parents getting older and slower is a pain in your plans. But you can be "happy" because eventually they wont bother you anymore in the grave, yknow? All the sudden youre grateful for all the times they asked you to come over but you had that special thing happening and you spent time with them. Temper your annoyed state of mind with gratitude and love, you have less time with them as opposed to more. It ticks every day.

[@zach.vlogs.20]

I watched this scene too much now, but i do wonder what it would look like if we saw Sheldon going inside the car with George around that time, other than us seeing Sheldon walking with George and him closing the door

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for taking us through Sheldon's processing & doing it so beautifully.

[@Losa2687]

Their weren’t aware Sheldon was thinking 🤔 bout the grief of his dad; especially Missy. She thought 💭 he cares bout that stupid Star Trek series instead of their dad. There was a good lesson in Star Trek. Spock dies. He was so young

[@2Hearts3]

A brilliantly written scene. Watching it brings similar regrets to my mind and heart, and always a lump to my throat.

[@jhonatanromero9484]

Just thinking about alternate realities generates a deep reflection of what could have been.....

[@shadowspidey7327]

I did the exact same thing when my dad died back in 2019 thinking of moments I could have changed we had a huge falling out but slowly tried putting it back together. Last he said was I'll see you later like Sheldon's dad but sadly later never happened the new year came and I got the call about two weeks later of 2019. I was mad for so many years at him for what he did how he just changed from the best dad no kid wants to have I stopped saying I love you years ago I used to think does it make me a bad Son when I hated him for so many years I mean he gave me reasons too every time I forgave him he gave me another reason to be mad and hate him. Then later felt like he was coming back to his old self again just wish we had more time you know sometimes we think we've got all the time in the world but not really

We all have different ways to deal with this type of moments. Sheldon has his own way. Missy is mad and Georgie he is trying to stay strong for his mom, like a big brother. Same situation, different personalities.

[@mossgeorge2001]

In my opinion Sheldon should have told people what he was doing and I am sure his family would have been like weird but try it out and the smiles will come.
