Watch The Big Bang Theory S09E24 The Convergence-Convergence
"The Convergence-Convergence" is the twenty-fourth and season finale of the ninth season of the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory. The episode aired on Thursday, May 12, 2016.
The second wedding ceremnony is on while Beverly and her ex-husband fight and Mary Cooper takes an interest in Alfred. Also, Howard gets a message from the Air Force about his invention that stirs his paranoia.
Leonard and Penny plan to get remarried in front of their friends, Leonard's family, Penny's family, and Mary Cooper (who was invited by her son). Sheldon's mother and Leonard's father find something in common. Howard gets an email from the United States' Air Force about his invention enflaming his paranoia.
The night after the movie screening (from the previous episode), Leonard comes in while Penny is sitting on the bed. He complains about Sheldon's Rosa Parks incident and asks her about her time with Beverly. Penny feels that they ended in a good place and even got a hug from Beverly when she dropped her off. Also she kind of promised Beverly that they would get married again the following weekend so they could do it in front of family and friends. All that trouble for one hug? Penny explained that she was really hurt for not getting an invitation. Leonard retorts that their wedding was a spur of the moment thing and that they really don't like his mom. Penny wants to keep it a small affair and that she can invite her whole family now that her brother is out of prison. Leonard would like to invite his dad. He's doing so much better since the divorce (no more twitches). Penny then gets excited and tells Leonard that she never thought that her second marriage would be to him.
In the kitchen, Penny is explaining to the girls that they are having a renewal of their vows. Amy wants to know if she'll have a maid of honor. No. Amy replies hypothetically that if she wore a purple satin dress with a sweetheart neckline, could she prevent her from standing near Penny during the ceremony. Penny concludes that she could not. Then Amy graciously accepts. Penny asks Bernadette to officiate at the wedding, which causes Amy to complain that she is now just the lousy maid of honor. Sheldon comes in announcing that he has invited his mother to come, also adding that he invited Stephen Hawking, Robert Downey Jr., and Erno Rubik (inventor of the Rubik's Cube). Penny is annoyed that he is inviting people to "our wedding" (Leonard and Penny's). Sheldon then agrees that he is inviting people to "OUR wedding" (Leonard, Penny and Sheldon's). Again Sheldon is putting himself into the relationship. Bernadette asked why they are going to all that trouble for Leonard's mother. Penny also feels that it will help Leonard's relationship with his mother. Meanwhile in Leonard's car, Beverly yells at Leonard for inviting his father without consulting her. Leonard feels that he can invite who he wants, and that he doesn't need permission to have his won father there at his wedding. Beverly reminds him that he had an affair, which Leonard has no excuse for. Alfred called her cold, emasculating and not showing him no affection for years replied Beverly. Now Leonard thinks he has three excuses.
Howard is working on their invention and realizes that the system was now maintaining it's own stability and orientation. They have a working guidance system! As Raj congratulates him, Howard receives an email from the United States' Air Force. They are requesting a meeting to discuss their guidance system patent. Both of them wonder if it was just a coincidence that the email was received just as the system worked or whether they were being watched.
Shamy has picked up Mary from the airport. Mary thanks them and Sheldon says that she is welcomed. Mary was talking to his young lady. Amy says that it was no problem, "Mrs. Cooper." Mary tells her to call her "Mary", but Sheldon is against that because he called her Mrs. Cooper until he got to know her better. Mary was very happy that Leonard and Penny invited her. Amy cuts Sheldon off when he tries to correct her. Leonard always had a special place in her heart since he always took care of her little baby. Sheldon insists that he took care of Leonard. "Sure you did," replies Mary in a sarcastic tone. Amy tells her that Penny's family is coming the next day and that Beverly will be there, that doesn't please Mary as she pulls out her cross necklace. Sheldon points out that she is an atheist not a vampire though Mary wants to get some garlic at the store anyway.
In the apartment, Mary and Beverly are having some very awkward chit-chat. Amy thinks that the atmosphere is so chilly she can see her breath. Beverly says that they can hear them.
Howard is in his kitchen complaining to Bernadette and Raj about being extremely naïve. He thinks that the military will completely take over their project and that if anyone objects they will just disappear. Bernadette says that he is overreacting; however, Howard is convinced that they are already erasing his very existence. According to Raj, the message was from the USAF acquisition agency and that maybe they want to buy it for a lot of money. But the military took over in "Avatar", "E.T.", "Jurassic World", etc. Bernie reminds him that those were not documentaries.
Leonard and Alfred enter the lobby, Alfred approaches the elevator which is still broken and Leonard claims that it will be fixed any day now. Claiming the stairs, he hopes that he has a heart attack so he can avoid Beverly. He is still glad to have come and he feels that Penny is a real sweetie. Then Alfred wonders how Leonard caught her.
Up in the apartment, the only sound is Penny and Amy crunching on some celery and chips. No conversation... until Sheldon says "Isn't this nice?". Leonard and Alfred arrive and Penny goes up to him and hugs him. After Leonard re-introduces Alfred to Sheldon and introduces him to Mary and Amy for the first time and then to Beverly, Alfred says to her "Hello, my hateful shrew." She replies "Hello to you, you wrinkled old bastard.". Leonard asks everyone to remain civil since the get-together was for their benefit. After a round of everyone apologizing, Penny announces that they are going to have dinner at the nicest restaurant in town.
Howard is still wondering whether they should respond to the email. Raj points out that the Air Force knows that he opened it. Bernadette wants them to head out to Leonard and Penny's dinner. Raj adds fuel to the fire saying that the government is probably watching them right now through his webcam. Howard slams his laptop shut.
Driving his mother to dinner, Beverly hopes that her example of a failed marriage will not discourage them. Of course not, replies Penny. However, she adds, she and Alfred had a lot more going for them.
Mary and Alfred are getting to know each other. He says that he is an anthropologist who studies ancient cultures. "All the back to the flood?" asks Mary. Although an agnostic, he does appreciate others' beliefs. He had often prayed to God to turn Beverly into a pillar of salt. Mary adds that he came close and turned into a block of ice. Both laugh.
As Raj and Howard discuss who could help them on their drive to the restaurant, Bernadette tries to convince them that all their movies, television shows and comic books have twisted the way they are thinking. Then Howard notices a car that is following him. The car behind them is Leonard's and they decide to follow Howard since he might know a shortcut. Getting in closer freaks out Howard who makes a sudden turn and speeds up. Leonard continues to follow him fueling Howard and now even Bernadette's paranoia.
At the restaurant, Alfred and Mary are getting to know each other. Amy sees it, but Sheldon does not. Leonard and company arrive as they mention Howard's strange behavior. Penny calls Bernadette and wonders where they were. Bernie was relieved to learn it was Penny and Leonard following them. They have gotten pulled over and Howard was being given a sobriety test after ranting that the government is after him.
Back at the restaurant, Mary and Alfred are talking. Mary complements Leonard on his father's charm. Beverly interjects that he is also broke. Alfred mentions that recently they have discovered that Neanderthal man was now known to have mated with Homo sapiens which according to Mary explains her marriage to her husband. Leonard toasts Penny thanking her for a wonderful year of marriage, and for saying yes when he asked her to marry him. Penny thanks him for continuing to ask until she said yes and they kiss. Alfred also makes a toast that he is happy that Leonard has found a woman that loves and cares for him. Beverly squawks as to what the hell he means by that. And they begin arguing with Alfred telling Beverly to take a pill and she replies "Like you did before sex?" He answers "What I really needed was a blindfold". Mary tells everyone to calm down and remember what it says in the Bible: "He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty.". Beverly rudely asks Mary if she could please read another book and Mary angrily says to Beverly "When God writes one, I will.". Alfred decides to call it an early night as does Mary. When they find out they are staying at the same hotel, they both decide to share a cab and he invites her up for a nightcap as they leave. Penny and Amy see what happened, while Sheldon just thinks that they filled up on bread.
Sheldon tries calling his mother and Leonard tries texting Alfred, but neither respond. Penny laughs saying they turned their phones off. Sheldon and Leonard are quite disturbed at what is being suggested. Penny laughs and loves what is going on.
