Amy then suggests getting one of their friends, like Leonard, to do it.
Sheldon asks if she thinks they can really trust him, and when she notes that he’s his best friend in the whole world, Sheldon says that Leonard still seems like the guy in the plane crash who wouldn’t wait long enough before he started to eat you, so, we all now have that image in our heads.
Obviously, Amy is not OK with this idea of her having way more work to do and asks if they can just get a grad student to do the tedious and time consuming citation work.
Sheldon is not cool with the thought of a millennial getting his or her hands on their cherished work, though, because he thinks they might try to steal it or leak it before it’s fully ready.
