Howard overhears Denise tell Stuart that sheвЂ™ll see him later tonight. WeвЂ™ll have to wait a little longer to find out, because in the next scene weвЂ™re back to the Wolowitz Hotel. All true, of course, but Anu wants to know if he's actually happy in California. Leonard reluctantly agrees.ДЄnu asks how committed Raj is to staying in California, and he says that Pasadena is home to his work and his friends. And as Penny points out, Beverly gave birth to Leonard and that pretty much equals no-strings-attached airport rides. Leonard says Sheldon canвЂ™t pick Beverly up because that will make him look like a bad son. He offers to do it for him, but he doesn't drive (even though he has a license). Sheldon is appalled by Leonard's reluctance to pick up his own mother. If it were up to him, he'd just leave her there to fend off L.A. She's never had a strong relationship with her son, so it's no surprise that Leonard is reluctant to pick her up from the airport. 'The Maternal Conclusion' starts with the reveal that Beverly is coming to visit. You know what that means: Spoilers ahead, so proceed with caution. Same for Raj, who made the biggest decision of his life. Christine Baranski and Johnny Galecki brought the house down with their raw, emotional portrayals of Beverly and Leonard, and their relationship will never be the same. The second to last episode of The Big Bang Theory is in the books, and you'll probably need someone to sing 'Soft Kitty' to you after you watch.
