Leonard and Sheldon will be at odds after they agree to go dress shopping with Penny and Amy in the next all-new episode of "The Big Bang Theory."

Penny and Amy will coerce their boyfriends Leonard and Sheldon into taking them shopping in the upcoming episode, which is titled "The Space Probe Disintegration." However, after Leonard and Sheldon agree to participate in an activiey that their girlfriends like to do, it will lead to a confrontation between them, reports Carter Matt.

In the meantime, Raj will be concerned over the success of a probe he designed and whether or not it will work in outer space.

According to The Big Bang Theory Fan Site, the official synopsis states that: "Wolowitz tries to distract Raj, who is anxiously awaiting data from a space probe he helped launch. Meanwhile, Sheldon and Leonard go dress shopping with Penny and Amy."

A preview photo hints that both Sheldon and Leonard will be absolutely miserable while Amy and Penny shop for new dresses. In the picture, they can be seen holding their girlfriend's purses in a clothing store while looking bored. It seems like it would have helped if they brought their smartphones or gaming devices along with them to occupy their time.

In the last episode, Sheldon planned to ruin Amy's Christmas by buying her the perfect gift and making her feel guilty for not getting him anything. However, his plan backfired because Amy adored the gift, which was a picture of him sitting on Santa Claus' lap inside of a musical picture frame. She also gave Sheldon an unexpected present, which touched his heart. Amy presented him with baked him cookies using his Meemaw's special Christmas recipe.

"The Big Bang Theory" Season 8, Episode 12, "The Space Probe Disintegration," will air on Thursday, Jan. 8 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
