Character Information
Edit
Stephanie made her debut in "The Lizard-Spock Expansion", where she is shown to be a romantic interest of Howard, who tries to seduce her by taking her to his lab and have her drive a Mars rover. But when he sticks the space car in a ditch, he calls his friends over for help and asks Leonard to drive Stephanie home. This proves to be lethal for Howard's chances with Stephanie, as she and Leonard end up making out in the car. She eventually confesses to Howard how she's interested in Leonard and not him, which Howard takes as Leonard's betrayal of his trust. Howard starts considering Leonard to be dead to him, and insists his friends do the same around him. However, he forgives Leonard and Stephanie when he learns that they will help him meet Stephanie's roommate Lisa.
