Over the course of this new season, the show has seen Penny (Kaley Cuoco) choose a new career choice after deciding that acting wasn't working for her after being in Los Angeles for years without getting any major roles in the city; however, the "Big Bang Theory" season 8 episode 21 sees her return to following her dreams.
As Food World News has reported over the past weeks, the latest episodes of the show have delved deeper into Howard's life (Simon Helberg) following the death of his mother (Carol Ann Susi), including how he recently discovered he had a half-brother, and "Big Bang Theory" season 8 episode 21 will continue to follow this.
However, the main focus of the "Big Bang Theory" season 8 episode 21 will be career projects because, as Carter Matt reports, the fact that the season's already nearing its end also means that it's time for things to start shaking up for the show's characters.
According to Design Trend, the "Big Bang Theory" season 8 episode 21 focuses on the careers of two of its characters: Rajesh (Kunal Nayyar) and Penny.
In his own work, NASA gives Raj a new mission on the "Big Bang Theory" season 8 episode 21, where he'll be helping them in a project set to search for life in other planets - something that, of course, leads the rest of the gang to fight over who gets to work with them, as obviously all of them can't wait to find alien life.
In the meantime, Penny is facing a very difficult position: starring in "Clerks 3" after Kevin Smith offered her a role (and follow her dream) or staying at her comfortable job in the pharmaceutical industry (and continue to find stability).
International Business Times reports that the new episode will also see Penny asking Sheldon (Jim Parsons) for career advice.
