1	!!Plot
2	Sheldon becomes increasingly distressed after his and Leonard's apartment is robbed, and he starts looking for another city to relocate to.
3
4	!!Tropes:
5	* InsecuritySystem: Howard got the materials for the security system from a friend in the U.S. Department of Defense, pointing out the irony of them not having good security.
6	* KarmaHoudini: Whoever broke into Leonard and Sheldon's apartment, and the guy in Bozeman who stole Sheldon's luggage near the end.
7	* LongList: Sheldon telling the police all the video games that got stolen. The officer jotting it down just writes "assorted video games".
8	* MoodWhiplash: At the beginning of the episode, Leonard and Sheldon go from Sheldon's discussing of the possible origins of "mobster sauce" to discovering their apartment was robbed in minutes.
9	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Sheldon's paranoia regarding being robbed again culminates in him moving to Bozeman, UsefulNotes/{{Montana}}. After he gets his bags stolen and finds the temperature too cold, he decides to go back to Pasadena.
10	* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Sheldon has Howard set up a security system that includes an electrified net. Fortunately, the net wasn't electrified yet when it fell on Penny; Sheldon, however, wasn't so lucky.
11	* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: InUniverse, this is Sheldon's reaction to his replacement laptop.
12	-->'''Sheldon:''' My new computer came with Windows 7. Windows 7 is much more user friendly than Windows Vista. I don't like that.
13	* TotallyNotACriminalFront:
14	** When he sees "Mobster Sauce" (presumably a typo of "lobster") on a Chinese restaurant's menu, Sheldon suspects that the restaurant could be a front for TheMafia and the sauce might actually have [[ImAHumanitarian dead mobsters]] in it. Then he decides it's improbable since [[ComicallyMissingThePoint it's listed under seafood.]] Leonard [[{{Pun}} jokes]] that it could be from mobsters who "slept with the fishes".
15	** Lampshaded in short order when Sheldon suggests they go to their pizza restaurant: [[Film/TheGodfather Corleone's]].
16	---> '''Howard''': Sure, no mobsters there.
