Bernadette is in for a shock when she learns how her co-workers really view Penny in "The Big Bang Theory" season 8, episode 10, as cast Mayim Bialik admitted to being a nerd at heart.

According to Cartermatt, the teasers and synopsis from the show are getting far in between, just like the latest spoilers released by CBS, which could only mean one thing:

"It is a little bit curious that we are only getting official details about this episode right now, but one of the reasons for that may just be that the show is really cutting it close when it comes to filming all of these episodes on time. After all, there are few other programs right now that have done ten episodes this fall," it said.

"The Big Bang Theory" season 8, episode 10 spoilers can be gleaned from the synopsis, which reads: "Sheldon says a tearful goodbye to 'Fun with Flags.' Also, Leonard, Howard and Raj look for something significant in a dead professor's research, and Bernadette is shocked to learn her co-workers' true feelings from Penny."

Meanwhile, cast Mayim Bialik told Biography that she's a nerd at heart, which is why she appreciates the show like "The Big Bang Theory."

"You know, I am a neuroscientist, so on a deeper level, I also think it's remarkable that we have a TV show that does not talk about diagnoses. Big Bang Theory does not talk about fixing or correcting people," she said. "It's a show about people who live with each other's quirks."

Because of the diverse characters, there are bound to be some clashes.

"Sometimes they're annoyed by them and sometimes they exploit them in ways that are funny as entertainment, but it doesn't really judge them, and that is a cool thing," Mayim Bialik added.

Watch out for more "The Big Bang Theory" season 8, episode 10 spoilers as they come along ahead of the airing date on Thursday, November 20, at 8 p.m. on CBS.
