Is Penny cheating on me?

[Another Mother's Son]

I have been working hard on two farms and I know sometimes I get home very late and, well... sometimes I wake up at Harvey's clinic, or on Ginger Island... all I'm saying is for two nights this week, Penny was not in... our bed when I came home.

I started on Wednesday the 3rd. I came home late from the mines and was excited to be home before 2:00. But Penny wasn't there...
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2837726576 She wasn't in the kitchen when I woke up. The children had not been fed or changed. I was worried something terrible had happened! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2837726658 But there she was, on the porch, looking flustered and out of breath. "Oh, I fed the animals (that are auto-fed) and I put water in the dog dish (for our dog that doesn't need water)"
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2837726783 I couldn't say... anything. I know Penny is high energy and spontaneous, but something was off. Something was weird. That Saturday, at 4:20 (ahem) Penny was in "her part of the yard" and basically told me to be somewhere else https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2837727016 And then, on Saturday the 6th, I got home from a Very Lucky day in the mines with Mr. Qi seasoning on a Lucky Lunch! I was gonna make us RICH! ...and Penny wasn't there. Just as I was scrambling to think of what to do... call Dr. Harvey? The Saloon? In the final moment, before I passed out, I heard the front door open and Penny "sneaking" in with her shoes off. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2837727172
Guys, what do I do? I wanted another kid after I reached 10 hearts with Dilbert.

I looked at her schedule in the wiki, and Penny usually goes to bed around 10:00 PM. The one exception is the Night Market, when she goes to bed at 11:50. There's no record of her spending time "suspiciously". As for her not being in bed at night, it might be that she pulled the sheets over her head; once I wondered why the kids seemed to go missing one day, but after looking in the beds I was able to find them.

If you're really concerned, then test it; one week, every day of the week, follow her around. See what she's up to.

did you check the map to see where she is at bed time ( theres a map mod for that).
Is she staying late at the tavern? Or visiting her sister?

Don’t worry, she’s cheating on me too. Also cheating on my friend, half my coworkers, the delivery guy of the drug store…

The only positive thing is that now I got plenty of fertilizer….

I found something pertinent. ConcernedApe himself confirmed that Penny is not cheating after a player asked about the "tree climbing" comment during her eight heart event.

That's straight out of the ape's mouth.

Of course she is not cheating. Penny is probably the sweetest soul in the valley. She is just secretely busy dragging Pam home every now and then after too many beers. There are many bushes to search so it's no wonder she is out of breath and comes home late >:|

Penny and Sam have been getting busy in the tree.

He only says explicitly that Penny is not cheating with Sam

Wait, so she might still be cheating the player with someone other than Sam??
