Sheldon Cooper, the Ringard protagonist at the center of “Young Sheldon” and “The Big Bang Theory”, tends to react to things a little different than the people around him, and it is never more obvious than in the Episode of season 7 “A new house and a traditional Texas torture.” At the end of the episode, the young Sheldon (Iain Armitage) and his family are informed that Sheldon’s father George (Lance Barber) died of a heart attackAnd while her mother, sister and grandmother all start to cry, Sheldon looks somehow shocked and sits, his empty face. For someone outside, it may seem that he does not care, but because Sheldon is an undeveloped flavor of Neurodivergent, his reaction is actually as intense as possible emotional.

Sheldon would continue to have a different reaction to George’s death than the rest of the family, seeming even more detached than usual in the Heartbreaking and final episodesBut there was a good reason behind it. In an interview Television lineArmitage broke everything and explained that Sheldon was absolutely in mourning – he did it in his own way.

While the members of the Sheldon family have been devastated externally by the news and started to cry, Sheldon was so exceeded that he simply closed as armitage explained:

“The thing about Sheldon is that it is less an external stone face, I think you know for other characters maybe the stone facade collapses from the outside, for Sheldon , it’s from the inside. [the director] Said not to do this, it is a thousand times more heartbreaking if we see that Sheldon cannot even start to imagine the treatment or understand it to the point where his mind will not try; It is almost as if he had heard them talking about the weather and I really liked this interpretation. “”

In the scene, we can see Sheldon’s eyes move subtly while his brain tries to understand what he has just heard, and it is absolutely growing of the soul because we look at a young man realize that He will never see his father again. George and Sheldon had a complicated relationship It could have improved over time, but they never had this chance and it helped shape the often jaded adult, Sheldon finally became on “The Big Bang Theory” (where he was played by Jim Parsons, who told “Young Sheldon” and had a cameo in the final). Everyone is crying differently, and for Sheldon, it seems that their brain jumped directly into denial. Perhaps one day, long after the events of the same “The Big Bang Theory”, he will finally find acceptance.
