Here is a full breakdown, analysis, and review of the Season 2 premiere. The episode opens with a brilliant piece of sensory storytelling that only Sheldon Cooper would appreciate. He is sitting at the breakfast table, visibly agitated, while the rest of the family—Mary, George Sr., Missy, and Meemaw—eat in blissful ignorance. The source of his torment?

For anyone else, it’s white noise. For Sheldon, it is psychological warfare. This scene perfectly establishes the theme of the episode: What is normal to the average person is a crisis to Sheldon, and what is normal to Sheldon (a 10-year-old going to college) is a crisis to everyone else. Plot 1: The High School Hazing Last season ended with Sheldon starting high school. In this premiere, the novelty has worn off.
