'The Big Bang Theory' Season 10 Spoilers & News: Howard Finds Out What The Government Wants

"The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 is airing a new episode this week on CBS at 8:00 p.m. The second episode of the season is entitled "The Military Miniaturization," which will see Howard (played by Simon Helberg) finally learning what the government wants from him.

In the last episode of "The Big Bang Theory," Howard was visited by a military man (played by Dean Norris) who has been tracking Howard down for some time now. Colonel Williams of the Air Force will tell him that the military is interested in something he has invented, per Carter Matt.

However, Sheldon (played by Jim Parsons) will advise Howard to take heed in giving his invention to the military. Sheldon believes that this technology will only be used for war. Could Howard be instrumental in creating a weapon of mass destruction? He seeks the help of the other boys of "The Big Bang Theory" in what he must do with the situation.

"The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 Episode 2 will also focus on a storyline involving Howard's wife, Bernadette (played by Melissa Rauch). Like her husband, she will be having a work-related problem.

Bernadette has yet to tell her boss that she's pregnant, but it looks like her superior already knows this fact. It turns out that it's Penny (played by Kaley Cuoco) who told Bernadette's boss of her predicament, which could jeopardize the latter's job. Will Bernadette confront Penny? Will this ruin their friendship on "The Big Bang Theory"?

Meanwhile, "The Big Bang Theory" cast has just been heralded as TV's highest paid actors for June 2015 to June 2016. ABC News reports that Jim Parsons once again emerged as Forbes' number one. He was TV's highest paid actor in the previous year.

His "Big Bang Theory" co-star, Johnny Galecki, ranks as the second highest paid TV actor, while Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar also made it on the list. On the other hand, Kaley Cuoco is the second highest paid TV actress, next only to Sofia Vergara, who was also last year's number one, per People.
