Spoilers:
The boys are collecting Howard for lunch when he talks about a machine he created to make it appear as if he has been jogging because Bernadette is wanting him to exercise more. They end up talking about how they should pick up a sport and learn that Barry Kripke teaches fencing. Now this is a sport that they all decide they could get behind and sign up for lessons.
In the meantime the girls have been called to come to the comic bookstore by Stuart to help him figure out how to lure more women to come to his bookstore and try and bring in more business from the female population.
The boys are all dressed in fencing gear and Kripke is giving them instructions, which was amusing. Whenever Kripke would be distracted by a phone call or whatever, the boys were going crazy with fencing duals and it was quite funny.
The girls were hilarious though. Every thing they tried to point out to Stuart as to why his business may be having problems attracting women led to hilarious results.
Kripke learns that Sheldon and Amy have broken up and he shows interest in Amy which upsets Sheldon. He approaches Kripke and challenges him to a dual in exactly three years from that day as he needs time to learn the sport well enough to be a good opponent.
Somehow Stuart gets the wrong impression when Amy is trying to explain why he may be having difficulty being alone and how she could relate to that, which leads Stuart to assume she is asking him out. She clearly is not and makes it clear that she has no intention of going out with him.
In the meantime the girls return to Penny’s apartment and Amy gets an invite from Kripke to go out. The girls talk about it and Penny asks Amy if she has ever imagined what she would think about seeing a naked Kripke, and she says she doesn’t have to imagine it, and holds up her phone to show the girls a photo that Kripke sent her of himself naked, grossing out the girls.
Sheldon in the meantime is at a bar with the boys and having a beer when the boys convince him that the best way to move on from missing Amy is to start dating again. He sees an attractive blonde walk by and goes over to her and in his Sheldon -like way asks her out. She turns him down so he asks the woman next to her out which happens to be her grandmother and the third woman has red hair and is pale skinned and he thinks reminds him of clowns (a remark he made earlier to Raj about Emily as well) so bypasses her.
Later Sheldon and Leonard are walking up the stairs and Bernie and Amy are walking down the stairs and run into each other. Sheldon and AMy are abandoned by the other two and Sheldon tells her he has taken up fencing and that Kripke may ask her out. She tells him that Kripke already asked her out and she turned him down. Sheldon says to her “yeah, I asked out two women today and got turned down.” Amy was rather taken aback and said she wasn’t aware he was interested in dating someone else. He said he heard it was best for moving on. Amy gets quite emotional and wishes him a good day and leaves, but you could tell it really upset her to know he was already looking at dating other women.
The tag scene was Bernadette asking Howard how he ran so many miles in one day and he begins to “retreat” back out of the room.
