Spoilers for 'Young Sheldon' Season 4

In the premiere episode, we saw Sheldon Cooper (Iain Armitage) graduate from high school at a very young age. Of course, like any little boy, he does fear how it would be going to college, whereas his sister Missy Cooper (Raegan Revord) tells him that things will be different. The episode brought tears to many fans as Sheldon took the stage at his graduation as a valedictorian with an emotional speech to his brave sister who told him "Be scared, and do it anyway."

Not to mention, the highlight of the episode revealed to fans that Dr Amy Farrah Fowler-Cooper (Mayim Bialik) and Sheldon ended up having a child they named Leonard after Sheldon't best friend Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki). This was 'A Big Bang Theory' Easter egg that so many were waiting for and it was a brilliant premiere. We're pretty sure that Sheldon is ready for college intellectually but emotionally, not yet. He does have a very loving family to help support him though. Obviously, we can't wait for the next episode of the sitcom that's titled 'A Docent, A Little Lady, and a Bouncer Named Dalton'.

The promo sees Sheldon get a summer job at a local train museum, a hobby we know he absolutely adores. We also see him tell his mother to NOT cut the crusts off his sandwich, seems like our young stud is trying his best to grow up. In the season premiere, we saw him freak out when he couldn't find his protective eyewear which led to his father George Cooper (Lance Barber) ask him if this is how he plans to be in college. So, knowing Sheldon, we're thinking he's about to take steps to help him get ready for college.

While that all may be great, we can't forget his twin sister Missy Cooper (Raegan Revord), who according to the promo's synopsis "embarks on a new stage of womanhood." The promo sees her with her father in the truck where George says, "I don't know what to do, maybe you need to lie down," to which Missy says, she does not need to. He then hilariously says, "Well then maybe I need to lie down!" Missy, who's a smart-mouthed and adorable young girl tells her father, "breath, we're gonna get through this!" This makes us wonder if Missy gets her first period? More importantly, does she help herself or does her father help her through it. The series doesn't shy away from basic coming-of-age themes, and they're always hilarious - the Coopers take it day by day with their kids! 

The official synopsis of the episode reads, "A Docent, A Little Lady, and a Bouncer Named Dalton" sees Sheldon gets a summer job at the local train museum. Also, George and Missy bond when Missy embarks on a new stage of womanhood, and Georgie discovers Mary's guilty pleasure."

'Young Sheldon' Season 4 Episode 2 airs on Thursday, November 12, 2020, on CBS. Watch the promo clip below:
