Penny was home when she received the phone call from her agent. She got a call back as small new role on the a new day time soap opera, Town of Willow Lake. Penny knew this character Emily Jameson, a new woman in town seeking a relationship with her biological father and revenge on her step mother. Penny felt excited when she got the call back. Penny hurried and got dressed and went to the call back audition where she put all her acting skills to work.

Penny wanted to tell Leonard all about it but decided to wait to see if she got the part. She felt bad holding it back from him, yet Penny did not want to get her hopes up either and Leonard feel sorry for her not getting the part.

A few days later she got the call saying she would potray Emily and wanted to come to Universal Studios to have a set down with her agent and the executives. Penny hurried and called Leonard before she had to leave. "Hi Sweetie!" She said excitedly to her boyfriend.

"Well you seem extremely happy this morning. What's going on?" Leonard asked as he was getting his breakfast at work.

Penny swiveled in her office chair placong her free hand on her baby bumb due to their daughter kicking. "Well you remember last month when I went for that audition for that new soap opera?"

"Yeah?" Leonard suddenly felt worried as he sat down his tray and sat across from Sheldon.

Penny grinned from ear to ear as she no longer could sit down, so she got up to go to the bedroom to find something to wear. "Well I got the part!"

"Oh my gosh Penny that is amazing! Wait even being pregnant?" He asked as his worrisome returned.

"Well yeah, get this the like the idea that I am actually pregnant. The executives said it could add to my plot line. Hey who knew this pregnancy would land me a job and actually be a positive thing?" Penny said smiling as she could not decide what to wear as she threw her clothes all over the bedroom.

Leonard frowned now feeling confused. "You mean this acting job not our daughter right?"

"Of course the job. I wasn't saying oh because I have a job now is because I am pregnant and that is the only positive thing that has came out of this pregnancy. No not at all. She has been a positive since we conceived her even though she wasn't planned. But she brought us back together and I could not be happier." Penny wished she could have been hugging Leonard right now while she was saying this. But her mind quickly changed as she turned around and saw her and Leonard's bedroom. "Well okay I have to go now Sweetie for a meeting at the network...Love you and don't be too mad when you come and see our bedroom, bye!"

Penny hurried up knowing whe. she arrived home, Leonard would help her clean up. But also she already could not wait to come home to tell Leonard all about her new acting job.

When Penny arrived at the studio, she meet up with her agent and then sat down with her excutive producer's. They handed her the contract but could sign it so her lawyer could go over it with her and then discussed what they had in mind for her character. "Okay so as you know you be playing Emily. She is the daughter of the high profile mayor of Willow Lake, Miles Jamieson. He had a one night stand with your mother and he ended up raising you with your step-mother, Kathrine. You thought your whole life your biological mother never wanted you, but you found out when you were sixteen that your step-mother paid her off so your father did not look like a bad politician. As soon as you turned eighteen you high tailed it put of the Willow Lake with your boyfriend in hope finding your mother. You had no hope and ended up marrying a wealthy business man but of course you leave him because you can not take the abuse no more. You find yourself and your unborn baby back in Willow Lake. Your father is happy to see you, but your step mother is not. You want revenge on her because all the neglect and hate she put you through. Then you meet the deputy major, Calvin Kingston and fall headover heels for him. From there we want to see what you bring the character and how we will Emily be played out. And when you get close due to having your baby, we will figure out what to do with your character. So what do you say? Are you in?"

Penny told them yes right after she and her agent went to see a lawyer and signed the contract. Also in the meeting Penny found out she would shoot four days a week for five episodes. Now that it was late June and would start shooting in a month making Penny twenty-six weeks pregnant at that time. Penny told them she would have at least twelve to fourteen weeks to film episodes. The executives seemed happy about that. Also she found out she would be making nine hundred an episode but would get paid more as the show went on, plus a bonuses from CBS for promoting the new show.

Penny spent the rest of the day with going out to lunch with her agent and talking to laywers over the contract and the percentage her agent would get. Once they came to an agreement Penny signed contracts.

Penny was glad to come home to apartment complex with a working elevator. Her feet hurt and was starving. Before she could open the door to her apartment, she smelled food cooking. Penny smiled as she walked in seeing Leonard making her favorite meal.

Leonard served her food up for her and that they would pick up their bedroom together since Penny had long day also. Leonard asked about her role, so Penny told him. "I guess that is why they are called soap operas for a reason." Leonard said to her and was amazed at the plot line they had for Penny's character. "Hey maybe this will get you moved up to bigger projects. Like I don't know, maybe Syfy channel movies?" Leonard than gave his girlfriend a cheesy smile with two thumbs up.

Penny rolled her eyes, "I hate when you do that. It's weird before and after sex, and its weird now." She was talking about his thumbs up, so Leonard put his thumbs down and continued eating his dinner. "And you would just love it if I was so I would be a celebrity panelist at your Comic Con and could tell all the nerds that I am the reason why you are the king of nerds." She raised an eyebrow waiting for his response.

"Yep!" is all Leonard said with a smug smile.
