In the next episode of "Young Sheldon," little Sheldon Cooper (Iain Armitage) finds a sneaky way to buy a computer which he needs to further his dream to work for NASA.
The trailer for the upcoming episode titled "A Patch, a Modem, and a Zantac" were just released recently and showed Sheldon looking intently at an office computer which he wants to get badly. Apparently, he wants to work for NASA when he grows up but he needs to learn how to use a computer first in order to get there. He devises a way to get some money to buy the device. He decides to take out a bank loan on his house. He calls up the loan specialist and says, "I'm interested in taking out a second mortgage." The lady on the other end is surprised and asks Sheldon's age.
"I'm nine years old. Why do you ask?" he says to the specialist. Apparently, he does not find it strange for a young boy to ask for a bank loan. He gets offended by the loan officer and says, "That's called age discrimination, Dorothy, but I'm willing to let it slide." Sheldon believes he is mature for his age and is determined to get the money no matter what. It remains to be seen if he will get the computer in the end and what his parents' reactions will be about the loan on the house.
In the last episode, Sheldon helped his father George (Lance Barber) win the football game against his rivals. His dad was the coach of the high school football team and applied Sheldon's statistics to in order to outsmart the opposing team. The young boy became the school's hero.
"Young Sheldon" season 1 episode 6 will air on Thursday, Nov. 30 at 9:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
