I altered the trope name of \"Third Wheel\" once I learned how to edit text on the webpage.

* AccidentalMarriage: Penny had one of those with Zach. In Las Vegas. She does not realise she is legally married - she was so drunk she wrote it off as "one of those joke weddings you have in Las Vegas". Leonard is suitably mortified; Sheldon helpfully points out that while stone-cold-sober, Penny has turned down ''three'' proposals from him.

Although new problems are introduced because Penny had just ''quit her job'' so she can focus on her acting career.
