Young Sheldon Season 5 Episode 9

Story:

The new episode 'The Yips and an Oddly Hypnotic Bohemian' hints at George liking Brenda and vice versa. Sheldon and Missy struggle to deal with their yips.

Review:

The episode begins with a recap of George and Brenda, getting viewers' expectations high about their story finally being told. But nothing of that sorts happen. The new episode 'The Yips and an Oddly Hypnotic Bohemian' though hints at the two developing a liking towards each other. George clearly likes spending time with Brenda and when he was asked by his friend at the bar if he could set him up with someone, he does not bring up Brenda's name. His expressions clearly show that he could but he does not want to.

George turns a handyman for Brenda and helps repair things at her house. Unsuspecting Mary encourages George to do so. George has a moment with Brenda and when he returns home and appreciates Mary, trying to seduce her, he gets shot down. It gets evident that the two's romance have hit a roadblock.

Meanwhile, Missy and Sheldon too are seen facing issues concentrating and doing what they are best at. Sheldon makes fun of Missy and tells her that it could be her puberty age that's distracting her and creating mood swings. But he never expected that it would bite him back. He too deals with yips as his brain freezes during an exam and knowing Sheldon that he is, it does not go down well with him. He blames Missy for giving it to him and is seen struggling not to overthink, which is quite fun to watch. However, the two get over it.

Verdict:

It is fun to watch Mr Smarty Pants' brain freeze and struggling with his tests, which he otherwise easily cracks.
