She\u2019s been the voice of Mulan in the 1998 film, Agent Melinda May in <em>Marvel\u2019s<\/em> <em>Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.<\/em>, and most recently assassin Fennec Shand in the Star Wars Disney+ <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> <em>The Book of Boba Fett<\/em>. And yet, she\u2019s never been more in control than as Dr. Carol Lee in this week\u2019s episode of CBS\u2019s <em>Young Sheldon<\/em>, which aired on February 24.<\/p>\n<p>Sheldon (Iain Armitage) is used to being able to drive the adults around him crazy enough to get his way, but one person he can\u2019t shake is the completely unfl<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>able Dr. Lee. With the infighting between Dr. Linkletter (Ed Begley Jr.) and Dr. Sturgis (Wallace Shawn) in the lab where Sheldon works, President Hagemeyer (Wendie Malick) assigns Dr. Lee as project leader to restore order, and she certainly is qualified for the task. \u201cI have a PHD in physics from Berkley, I worked at IBM\u2019s Watson Research Center as lead of the materials research group, and I raised three little boys, which I understand you\u2019ve been acting like,\u201d she says with a smile to the chagrined trio. With the electric guitar in the background, the stylish grey pants-suit Dr. Lee is wearing, and Wen\u2019s smooth delivery, it\u2019s an impressive introduction. All I could think about while watching the scene: I want Dr. Lee around all the time.<\/p>\n<p>Sturgis and Linkletter are clearly as impressed by her as I am, and they pretty im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely fall in line. Who can blame them as Dr. Lee tells amazing stories, like doing an experiment in the middle of an earthquake, and jokes with them in other languages about what it would take to make Sheldon stop talking\u2013Mandarin with Sturgis and French with Linkletter. The only one not charmed is Sheldon, who only sees someone who isn\u2019t taking his ideas seriously.<\/p>\n<p>When Sheldon goes to her office to complain, Wen somehow manages to pull off an air of both maternal patience and disdain towards Sheldon. She calmly tells him that she\u2019s taking everyone\u2019s ideas into consideration and only wants what\u2019s best for the project, but throws some serious shade when Sheldon pushes back, telling him \u201cno\u201d in Klingon, explaining that she looked up how to say that one word because she \u201chad a feeling it would come in handy.\u201d Even Wen\u2019s facial expressions seamlessly merge from stern to an amused smugness.<\/p>\n<p>When Sheldon gets mischievous and breaks into Dr. Lee\u2019s office to replace her coordinates for the telescope with his own, we learn he has truly met his match. The scene is perfectly paired with a chat between Dr. Lee and President Hagemeyer about how hard it is to be a woman in the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">science<\/a>s. Just as Dr. Lee explains that she\u2019s designed <em>Home Alone<\/em>-style boobie traps to protect her work, Sheldon is hit with spray paint, his picture is taken, and an alarm goes off when he tries to get into Dr. Lee\u2019s computer. It\u2019s a scene worth the rewatch just to watch Sheldon\u2019s stunned face.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1030234\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1030234\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1030234\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five.jpg\" alt=\"Young Sheldon, Iain Armitage, Ming-Na Wen\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five-405x289.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five-798x570.jpg 798w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/young-sheldon-iain-armitage-ming-na-wen-season-five-570x407.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1030234\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">CBS<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Unfortunately, Wen has confirmed that so far she isn\u2019t scheduled to return in more episodes, but she definitely wants to come back. Hopefully the series\u2019 creative team realizes her character is a huge success, and makes immediate plans to write Dr. Lee more great storylines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_observations_we_thought_made_this_episode_stand_out\"><\/span><strong>Other observations we thought made this episode stand out:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The B-plot this episode has Missy (Raegan Revord) and George Sr. (Lance Barber) trying to convince the piously Christian Mary (Zoe Perry) to cash-in a winning lottery ticket. The storyline is entertaining enough, but its true shining moment comes at the end of the episode, when the whole family\u2013minus a scoffing Missy\u2013stand around watching the dishwasher they bought with the money. They ooh and ah over every new stage of the rinse cycle, each small beep, and Sheldon\u2019s reading of \u2018fun facts\u2019 from the instruction manual. It\u2019s the little things in life that are the most satisfying.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"post-block\" data-skm-boomerang-el-0=\"processed\" data-skm-boomerang-el-9=\"processed\">\n<p><b><em>Young Sheldon<\/em>, Thursdays, 8\/7c,<\/b> <b>CBS<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
