Sheldon thinks Christmas is a pagan ritual he would rather skip, until Penny hands him a present. Now he is bound by the laws of social exchange to buy one of equal value, and that means a nervous trip to the shops with Howard and Raj. Faced with a wall of bath products, Sheldon decides the only scientific answer is to buy the lot. Meanwhile, Leonard is jealous of a very handsome scientist who has taken a shine to Penny. It all builds towards one of the sweetest endings the show ever did, which is exactly why this one gets dusted off every December.
