In this Thursday's episode, Sheldon asked for Penny's advice to deal with a work conundrum. Sheldon wanted to work with geologist Bert, but he doesn't want anybody to find out that he is working with a geologist. Their conversation ended with the physicist making fun of Penny's promiscuous past.
Elsewhere, Cuoco also recently spoke to Entertainment Tonight about Penny's itch to start a family with on-screen husband Leonard.
When asked if Bernadette's second pregnancy may encourage her character to start a family with Leonard, The CBS star replied, "I think it's causing like, the itch. You know when your girlfriends start getting married or having kids, you go, 'Oh, should I be doing this too?'"
She continued, "I think with Leonard and Penny, they're starting to talk about that too, and saying, 'Oh my god, are we behind?' But I think they're right where they need to be and I don't think we need another baby on set."
The Big Bang Theory season 11 airs every Thursday at 8 pm EST on CBS Network.
