The Coupling Conundrum Trivia Quiz

Answer: Raj

Raj met Anu in season 12 after asking his father to arrange a marriage for him. Raj and Anu did hit it off and started planning a wedding. It was eventually called off, but they decided to start dating without the pressure of an impending wedding. At the end of the series, Anu was offered a job in London and Raj almost went with her, until Howard convinced him he was better off staying in California with his friends.

Anu was played by Rati Gupta.

Answer: Leonard

Leonard dated Dr. Stephanie Barnett in season 2. Howard actually met her first and incorrectly thought they had started a relationship, when actually she'd started sleeping with Leonard. Howard got over it by the end of the episode and Leonard and Stephanie continued to go out for a couple of episodes, until Stephanie disappeared with no explanation.

She was played by Sara Rue.

Answer: Dave

Amy went on a few dates with Dave Gibbs while she and Sheldon were broken up in season nine. Dave was actually a huge fan of Sheldon and spent a whole evening gushing over him after finding out that Amy used to date him. Amy wasn't going to see Dave again, but after Sheldon turned her down when she told him she was ready to get back together, she called Dave again. He was present at her apartment when Sheldon showed up, realizing he did want to be with her. Dave was an extremely good sport about it, even telling Sheldon, "Kiss her, you brilliant fool!"

Dave was played by Stephen Merchant.

Answer: Zack

Zack Johnson first appeared in season three as Penny's new boyfriend after she and Leonard broke up. A tall, good looking and somewhat slow-witted guy, Zack was very much opposite to Leonard and the guys but actually really liked them and often wanted to 'talk science' with them. Penny's initial fling with Zack didn't last too long, but she got back together with him in season four. It again didn't last long, but it was revealed in season seven (when Penny and Leonard were back together) that at some point Penny and Zack took a trip to Vegas and got married, thinking it wasn't real. The marriage was annulled and Zack continued to make occasional appearances until the end of the series.

Brian Thomas Smith played Zack.

Answer: Raj

Raj actually dated two different Emilys. First was Penny's friend from the gym who was deaf. This worked out perfectly because it didn't matter that Raj couldn't speak in front of her. She dated Raj for a few weeks and it became clear that she was in it for his money. She broke up with him when his parents threatened to cut him off. This Emily was played by Katie Leclerc.

Raj also dated Dr. Emily Sweeney for a longer period of time. They first met in season seven on a dating site. Their first meeting didn't go well, but Raj ran into her again later and was able to charm her. They broke up in season nine but got back together briefly, while Raj was seeing both Emily and Claire. In season ten, however, Raj told Howard he was no longer seeing either girl. Emily Sweeney was played by Laura Spencer.

Answer: Leonard

Priya was Raj's younger sister. She first appeared in season four's "The Irish Pub Formulation" and slept with Leonard in this episode. It was implied it wasn't the first time the two had hooked up. Priya left town again and nothing came of their brief fling. She returned later in the season, staying with Raj for a period of time while in the US for work, and she and Leonard began a relationship that continued long distance when she went back to India. Priya was never seen again after season five's "The Good Guy Fluctuation" after she revealed to Leonard over video call that she had slept with her ex-boyfriend. Leonard and Penny got back together for good soon after.

Priya was portrayed by Aarti Mann.

Answer: Howard

Chrissy was a friend of Penny's from Nebraska who had a short relationship with Howard in season one. When Penny told the guys how promiscuous Chrissy was, Howard immediately went across the hall to Penny's and introduced himself to Chrissy. Chrissy temporarily moved in with a Howard but soon was chased off by Mrs. Wolowitz.

Chrissy was played by Brooke D'Orsay.

Answer: Sheldon

When Sheldon met Ramona Nowitzki, she was a grad student with a major crush on him. In season two she turned his life into a living hell by imposing herself in his life, forcing him to spend every waking moment working with no time allowed for things like video games or paintball. Sheldon eventually grew the courage to tell her to go away when she asked him to put her name on his work.

Ramona returned in the season ten finale, a full-fledged PhD. Apparently still very interested in Sheldon, she began going after him, while Amy was away working at Princeton. Ramona kissed Sheldon, and he immediately got up, got on a plane, went to New Jersey and proposed to Amy. Ramona appeared again in the season 11 premiere, when Amy hugged her and thanked her.

Riki Lindhome played Ramona.

Answer: Raj

Raj met Lucy, a very socially awkward woman, at a Valentine's Day party at the comic book store in season six. They left the party and went for coffee, but Lucy then excused herself to go to the bathroom, and climbed out the window and left. Raj was crushed but Lucy contacted him again, apologized and they began dating (though that wouldn't be the last time she ran out on him). Lucy broke up with him at the end of season six because she felt he was pushing her too hard to do things she was uncomfortable with, such as meeting his friends. They almost started seeing each other again in season seven but Raj was also seeing Emily and Lucy wasn't okay with that.

Lucy was played by Kate Micucci.

Answer: Stuart

Denise started working at Stuart's comic book store in season eleven. She agreed to be Stuart's date to Sheldon and Amy's wedding in the season eleven finale when she heard that Mark Hamill would be there. At the wedding, Stuart proved that he had much more "Star Wars" knowledge than Hammill did and Denise found that hot. They started a relationship in season twelve, which proved awkward for Howard and Bernadette, who were uncomfortable with Stuart bringing Denise home to their house. By the end of the series, Stuart and Denise made plans to live together at her place (needing first to get rid of her creepy roommate).

Denise was played by Lauren Lapkus.
