Spoilers 'Young Sheldon' Season 4 Episode 3

At the beginning of Season 4, 'Graduation' saw young Sheldon Cooper (Iain Armitage) break down when he realized things would be a lot different when he goes to college. Since he and his twin sister Missy Cooper (Raegan Revord) share a room, Missy helped him get over that by telling him that she too has the same fear. “I guess be scared and do it anyway," she had told him. Although Sheldon may be hard to deal with, Missy has been there for him — mostly because he's annoying, but also because he's her brother. In the upcoming Episode 3 titled 'Training Wheels and an Unleashed Chicken', we see Missy yet again have her brothers back.

(CBS)

The promo of the series shows Missy teaching Sheldon how to ride a bike without training wheels — something Sheldon seemed to be afraid of. Then we see him doing it, but looking back at his sister before hitting a mailbox and seemingly breaking his arm. Then there is a scene of him being in the ER with his parents, holding his arm. The promo goes on showing Sheldon ending up in what looks to be a cement cast — must have been a bad break. What's more adorable though is that the scene between Missy and him where he tells Missy, "I need mom to sing soft kitty." Now, if you've watched 'The Big Bang Theory', you'd know that this is Sheldon's comfort song — no matter how smart, a child will always need his mother. But, Missy stops him and brings up one of Sheldon's heroes. "That's Stephen Hawking over there, he's in a wheelchair. You don't hear him whining about it with his robot voice," she tells Sheldon. It seems as though Sheldon — even though in pain — needs some growing up to do, especially if he's about to tackle college.

Missy and Sheldon may have a complicated relationship, but let's be real, who doesn't have a complicated relationship with Sheldon. In the breakdown in episode 1 'Graduation', we saw that he, in fact, still is a young boy that needs guidance even though he thinks he doesn't. His relationship with Missy has been so sweet this season, and she seems to be trying to toughen her brother up. Missy, in many ways, is the complete opposite of Sheldon — she is quirky, mostly a tom-boy, loves baseball, among many other things. But, it seems that Sheldon (based on the promo) still listens to her, and their bond, although different from other brother-sister bonds, seems to work for them. In fact, Missy herself is growing up — the last episode titled 'Docent, A Little Lady and a Bouncer Named Dalton' saw her get her period. Being with her father, who legitimately freaked out more than she did, Missy handled quite like a "little lady" and then went on to pitch at her baseball game.

Now, we're not too sure what the "unleashed chicken" part of the episode's title means, but we're excited to find out.



 

'Young Sheldon' airs on Thursdays at 8 pm EST on CBS.
