The Big Bang Theory - Schrödinger's Cat

Erwin Schrödinger and his elusive zombie feline come to Leonard's date's rescue.

Boo, physics fail! This analogy requires that the potential relationship has a probability of turning out one way or another when really it's probably closer to a deterministic thing (given the same initial conditions, it will always turn out the same way regardless).

Ah, but if it's "closer" to a deterministic thing, that implies that there's some probability it won't fail, thus creating two possible futures: failed date and successful date. Now, to complete the analogy to the brain-munching zombie-cat, to find out how the date turns out, one would have to embark on said date.

Anyway, applying quantum physics rules to multi-cellular life forms directly is almost never a good idea.
