TPTB probably thinks the problem with Lenny last year was that Penny had a fulfilling (and profitable) career, so the secret probably is that Bernadette heard they were going to lay off (fire) Penny. That way they can get back to the "real" comedy of Penny trying to fit into the snobbish Alumni Wife's Club (with tea parties and book clubs) and all the "funny" misunderstandings that new Married couples go through like where do we live, does Sheldon sleep with us when he's scared, and the manipulation/browbeating to start popping out Lactose intolerant kids 
“There are no scenes more fun to do, I feel like, than the ones between Sheldon and Penny. They are such a wonderful odd couple.” - Jim Parsons
