Young Sheldon Hints At Veronica Finally Reuniting With Georgie
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Young Sheldon season 5.
CBS is teasing that Veronica (Isabel May) may finally reunite with Georgie (Montana Jordan) on Young Sheldon. Sheldon's (Iain Armitage) big brother has dated several girls in the last couple of years, but, Georgie had a special connection with Veronica. So, ever since she suddenly disappeared on Young Sheldon, there have been questions about what happened to her and whether she could potentially return. Luckily (or not), it seems like she'll make her return sooner rather than later.
Veronica debuted in Young Sheldon season 2 and appeared sporadically until her final appearance in season 3. Georgie was immediately head over heels for her, but while the feeling was mutual, Veronica couldn't openly reciprocate his affections. The Big Bang Theory spin-off left their story hanging since Veronica's disappearance was kind of abrupt and without any real reason. But now, it's possible that the CBS comedy is staging her re-appearance. And while that might mean that she's finally ready to start a relationship with Georgie, her possible comeback couldn't have come at the worst time given Mandy's (Emily Osment) pregnancy.
A brand new promotional still for Young Sheldon season 5, episode 19 titled "A God-Fearin' Baptist And A Hot Trophy Husband," shows Georgie talking to an unidentified blonde woman. Although it's easy to assume that this is Mandy considering what's happening in the sitcom, the caption of the image teasing about more surprises coming Georgie's way somehow debunks this. If it is indeed Mandy, CBS doesn't have any reason to intentionally hide her face since she's a known intrinsic player in Young Sheldon's current narrative. So instead, this blonde woman could very well be Veronica, which is probably the biggest surprise Georgie can receive given his current situation.
The previously released trailer for Young Sheldon season 5 episode 19 reveals what can be expected from the outing. After Georgie confesses to his parents about Mandy's pregnancy, Mary (Zoe Perry) panics — understandably worried about what this might mean for her son's future. The Coopers then decide that the best way to move forward is to get to know Mandy by inviting her to dinner. Considering Georgie's relaxed demeanor, it's safe to assume that everything will go down during the meal with regard to how they move forward with the pregnancy. So, where does Mandy fit in all of this? Her appearance on Young Sheldon can happen towards the end of the upcoming episode. By then, Georgie feels that he already has a handle on what's going on with Mandy, and then suddenly, he's reunited with his first love.
There are only a few episodes left on Young Sheldon season 5. So, it's curious if CBS is planning to wrap up this whole Georgie storyline this year or if it will continue to pan out in season 6. Regardless, if Veronica is indeed coming back to The Big Bang Theory spin-off, Georgie's already complicated relationship with Mandy may just get a little bit more complex.
Young Sheldon season 5 airs Thursdays on CBS.
