There will be no new episode of "The Big Bang Theory" season 10 tonight as the crew is taking their mandatory winter break. But the internet is not exactly devoid of any spoilers for when the show comes back rejuvenated as reports suggest that there will be brewing tension between best buds Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and Leonard (Johnny Galecki)
As loyal "The Big Bang Theory" fans know, Sheldon has moved out of the Hofstadters' apartment to Penny's (Kaley Cuoco) old unit and is cohabiting with girlfriend Amy (Mayim Bialik). While it has been quite a peaceful arrangement for the two couples in the last few weeks with Leonard and Penny catering to their friends' nuisances, things will be taking a new turn.
As it turns out, the former housemates will get into an argument after Leonard tries to make Sheldon take away all the less important stuff while they are dividing furniture with their respective ladies. Obviously, not to be taken advantage of, Sheldon plots against Leonard that results in Christopher Lloyd renting the married duo's apartment for just a dollar. So after a fancy date in town, Leonard and Penny get the shock of their lives when they find their newest tenant lounging in their kitchen.
Elsewhere in the episode, Stuart (Kevin Sussman) living with the Wolfowitz's gets under Howard's (Simon Helberg) skin after the comic book owner got evicted from his own apartment. But Raj (Kunal Nayyar) joining the mix makes for an interesting competition between him and Stuart on who can make a better baby mobile.
As of now, CBS has yet to announce when "The Big Bang Theory" will be back after their mandatory hiatus. Carter Matt speculates that it may be sometime soon; say as early as Dec. 1. The media outlet has also lined up possible plot lines that will supposedly take place in the latter half of the season including Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) giving birth as well as Raj's budding love life.
