The Big Bang Theory – Penny’s Job

The Big Bang Theory – Penny’s Job

Penny: I mean, the whole experience reminded me about how much I hated about that world. You, you know, the anxiety, the depression, the negativity. I don’t want to feel those things. I want to sell drugs to people who feel those things.

Amy: I can’t believe you got up and walked out of an audition for a big movie.

Penny: I did. I mean, I walked in, read for the part, then stunk up the place, but then I walked right out.

Bernadette: Well, I’m glad you have a new appreciation for your job.

Penny: I do, and you know, I don’t think I’ve ever thanked you properly for helping me get it.

Bernadette: Properly, at all. It’s just words I’ve never heard.

Penny: Well, thank you. You’re a good friend, and you changed my life.

Bernadette: You’re welcome. Hey, now that you’re making some real money, maybe you can take your friend out for a nice thank-you dinner.

Penny: Sure.

Amy: And you probably have to invite your other friend ’cause she overheard you talking about it, and it would be awkward to exclude her.

Penny: Okay.

Bernadette: How about now?

Penny: All right.

Bernadette: Don’t forget your wallet.

Penny: I, uh, huh.
