I just wanted to let you know that I-I posted my findings.

I saw.

And I just

posted a retraction of my paper.

Now the whole scientific community knows I was wrong.

These things happen all the time, Sheldon.

Not to me.

The only other retraction I ever had to issue

was when I was seven and I conceded that my brother

was the greatest ninja in East Texas.

But that was just a ploy to get my face out of his armpit.

There he is!

It's my favorite superhero--

the Retractor!

Come on, don't give him a hard time.

I'm sorry, Cooper.

I retract it.

By the way, Hofstadter,

nice job disproving the Chinese team.

It's not a big deal.

It's a huge deal.

Cooper, maybe physics just isn't your thing.

Have you ever considered a career in retail?

That way you could take things back for a living.

Okay, Barry, that's enough.

Oh, no, that's okay.

I can fight my own battles.

Isn't that right, "Bawwy."

Is...?

Is that a reference to my speech impediment?

That's pretty hurtful.

I...

I can't control it.

You're right,

That was uncalled for.

I take it back.

Of course you do.

Because you're the Retractor!
