Young Sheldon S05e14 - Openh264 !!install!!

SHELDON (overhearing): Mother, your prayers have been answered. I’m building a new codec. It will make your Jesus commercials look like 4K cinema.

The lawyer scoffs and leaves.

Sheldon finds himself at odds with Dr. Lee, a new scientist introduced to the lab. The episode highlights "scientific rivalries" as a fact of life, drawing parallels to famous historical bouts like Newton vs. Leibniz and Tesla vs. Edison. Adult Sheldon (narrated by Jim Parsons) describes the clash as an "intellectual boxing match".

SHELDON: Codecs don’t observe the Sabbath.

Sheldon is already at the kitchen table, surrounded by printouts of RFC (Request for Comments) documents. He’s furiously scribbling equations on a napkin. Missy shuffles in, grabs a Pop-Tart.

MISSY: I don’t know what a codec is, but I bet it’s not as annoying as you.
