'''Howard:''' Yeah. (''bitterly under his breath'') They sucker punch you when your eyes are closed.

* NasalTrauma: When Howard inappropriately tries to kiss Penny after she apologizes she punches him in the face. The final scene shows he got a broken nose from this.
* NoSympathy:
** When Kripke finds out about what happened to Howard and why it isn't a good time for their robots to fight, he dismisses it with the cold remark that everyone present (himself included) is “creepy, pathetic, and cannot get girls".
** After Leonard explains to Penny how she hurt Howard's feelings and sent him into a depression, Penny initially refuses to apologize or feel any sympathy for him and laughs when Leonard tries to think of a way for her to spin it in a positive way. She only relents when Leonard calls in the favor she said she owed him.

'''"The Killer Robot Instability"''' is an episode of ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'' that first aired on January 12, 2009.
The guys build a killer competition robot for a robotics competition. To verify the robot's power, Leonard has the robot destroy a toaster oven, then the door to Apartment 4A. This frightens Penny as she's coming up the stairs. Penny confronts the guys.
Predictably, Howard takes the opportunity to hit on Penny yet again. Penny is sick and tired of Howard's sexual harassment having endured it for at least a year by now. She tells him in no uncertain terms what she thinks of him and what she thinks will happen to him.
Devastated by Penny's tirade, Howard spends the next couple of days moping in his bedroom in his mother's house, essentially dropping out of the robotics team. Leonard convinces Penny to go apologize to Howard. Seeing this side of Howard's personality humanizes him in Penny's eyes, and she says some encouraging words to him.
But then Howard, as if having learned nothing, tries to kiss Penny, so she punches him in the face. Still, this motivates him to resume his normal activities, including his participation in the robotics team.
