| New York Stories / int_31da1e24 | comment |
Shipper on Deck: Sheldon's mother definitely approves of Treva, who makes food as bland as her, and returns to normal after Sheldon hooks up with her. It's hinted the entire thing was her Batman Gambit to get Sheldon to be interested in her pick of partner. | |

Jewish Mother | |
| New York Stories / int_7130202a | comment |
Jewish Mother: Sheldon's mother alternates between kvetching at him about everything, embarrassing him by telling everyone about his childhood bedwetting, and being very critical of his gentile divorcee girlfriend. He feels genuinely relieved when she disappears during a magic act. Then she reappears in the sky over New York, doing the exact same thing except now literally everyone in the city can see or hear her. She only returns to human form once Sheldon has been dumped by his gentile girlfriend and he introduces his mother to his new Jewish girlfriend, who similarly nags and controls him. | |
