Sheldon becomes fixated on beating a Super Mario Bros. level, approaching it with systematic analysis rather than motor skill practice. Meanwhile, Mary, Missy, and Georgie get stranded when George Sr. gets a flat tire. Without Sheldon’s intellectual “help,” the family solves practical problems on their own.
