She even says, “You only notice me when I’m bad.” George’s response — taking her for fast food instead of punishing her — is the most heartbreaking moment in the episode. He knows he’s failing her. He knows Mary won’t approve. And he does it anyway because being the “fun bad parent” is the only connection left he knows how to give. The final shot of the two of them eating fries in silence, the dashboard light casting half their faces in shadow — it’s pure dramatic cinema. On Blu-ray, the black levels hold perfectly, making that shadow a character of its own. young sheldon s04e17 1080p bluray
