The Big Bang Theory Nerdiest Moments season 1 episode 8 titled "The Bakersfield Expedition" follows our favorite scientists, Sheldon, Leonard, Howard and Raj as they embark on a road trip to a comic book convention being held in Bakersfield, California. The guys are excited for the trip and are all dressed up as "Star Trek: The Next Generation" characters. However, things take a turn for the worse when their car breaks down in the middle of nowhere.

The group finds themselves stranded in the middle of the desert with no cell phone reception and no idea how to fix their car. As they try to come up with a plan, they run into a group of rednecks who mistake their costumes for some kind of gay pride parade. The group quickly realizes that they are the targets of the rednecks who start threatening them.

The scientists try to run, but they end up stumbling upon a diner where they have to come up with a plan to disguise themselves and get out of there without the rednecks finding them. While they are at the diner, they meet an attractive woman named Mikayla who seems to have a liking for Leonard.
