The episode title also alludes to the fact that Amy and Leonard will go an unscheduled road trip to pick up Sheldon. With regards to Sheldon, things are not going so well for him on his cross country road trip on a train.
"His belongings have been stolen and he needs Leonard to pick him up in Arizona. Amy's not pissed at him for leaving, but she's certainly not thrilled that when he ran into trouble, he called Leonard instead of her," a synopsis of the episode read.
CBS released the episode's logline: "Leonard and Amy take an unexpected road trip to Arizona to pick up Sheldon. Meanwhile, Penny interviews for a job at Bernadette's company, and Howard is weirded out by Stuart's relationship with Mrs. Wolowitz."
According to Moviepilot, the new season picks up 45 days after the last episode of season 7.
"The Big Bang Theory" season 8 will premiere on Sept. 22 on CBS.
