Pippin: The Baglum household was making friends wherever they went.
Melvin: Thanks for sharing the shower with me, Carlotta.
Anita: I'm Anita.
Melvin: Yes you are!
Sage: (in a mocking voice) I'm Tom Shallow. Shallow just like the gene pool I swam out of.
Tom: How dare you!
Sage: Don't worry about how snotty you are, if you live long enough, I'll age up and beat the snot out of you.
Pippin: Okay, maybe we're not making friends. Let's talk about something else. Scarlet?
Scarlet: My outerwear is awesome.
Pippin: Stylish and functional.
Scarlet: Yes, very functional.
Scarlet: Well, I think I'll go console the poor Simovitch family. I understand someone stole their car.
Roosevelt: Welcome to my home.
Scarlet: Ugh, if I take over this place I will
definitely have to redecorate.
Roosevelt: Pardon me?
Scarlet: I said I heard someone stole your car. How terrible.
Pippin: And eventually, prom, and therefore formal wear, time came around for the twins. Scarlet was named prom queen, both girls were shot down for dances, and Sage came home having gained a boyfriend she'd never met before.
Sage: I may need a restraining order.
Scarlet: Oh look, you built us a prom shrine.
Sage: Why is my picture just about to fall off the dresser?
Scarlet: Wow, way to make the spare feel special, Pippin.
Pippin: I'm sorry! It's the only way both pictures and the crown would fit! Anyway, Rhoda was still up to her old tricks.
Rhoda: "
Old tricks?" Assuming that's an old joke?
Pippin: Maybe...but speaking of getting older, Saffron and Sepia aged up to teens.
Scarlet: Ooo, let's make fun of how silly they look!
Sage: Done!
Pippin: Things didn't go to badly for Saffron.
Pippin: Hahahahahaha!!
Sage: Nice face, Sepia!
Scarlet: Good heavens. Our sister has turned into a duck-billed platypus.
Pippin: Anyway, Sepia overcame her platypus status and the girls got their makeovers.
Pippin: And apparently they both saw something interesting off to the left. However, they spent more of their time staring at mirrors so they could develop their charisma skills...by being very vain, apparently.
Sepia: We're practicing speeches, Pippin, not staring at ourselves.
Saffron: Well, I might have been staring at myself a little.
Pippin: And Scarlet was still checking out her options.
Scarlet: Your house is pretty nice, Melvin Jr.
Freddy (son of Meadow): Aren't you that girl who's the whole reason my dad can't marry my mom and come live with us?
Scarlet: ...no...pretty sure that's Ruby Broke's daughter, Alejandra.
Sage: It is? I thought it was you.
Scarlet: (sigh) Fine. It's me. Anyway, why don't you let me see how nice your house is so I can decide if I want it. I mean, if I think I might have mushy, romantic feelings for you.
Freddy: Okay.
Saffron: Hi, Alejandra Broke, daughter of Ruby Broke! You should totally be our family friend so that we can meet Scarlet's move out requirements and then maybe later some heir can marry you since you're a vampire so you'll live a long time, though we'll need to cure your vampirism first, and then maybe you'll somehow pass on Ruby's genes more than your own because she's lovely, but you're just kind of average.
Alejandra: Please stop talking.
Pippin: And while things are going well for Saffron and Sepia as our charisma crew, things were not going as well for Rhoda.
Rhoda: Stupid police. I used to be able to outrun them. Stupid old age. Not one word, Pippin!
Pippin: ...
Rhoda: Good choice. You may speak now.
Pippin: So, before aging up, Scarlet learned the valuable skill of climbing walls.
Scarlet: Yeah, I'm gifted.
Pippin: But finally, the time to age up arrived.
Scarlet: I'm not bald again!
Sage: Well, that's far less fun.
Pippin: Yeah, and she doesn't have a monkey face. This birthday was way less fun.
Scarlet: Okay, if you two are done criticizing me, I think it's time to get my wardrobe together, start learning a skill, and get a career.
Pippin: Yeah, that sounds about right.
Scarlet: Maxing athletics...in style!!
Pippin: And while she did that, Sage aged up.
Sage: Ugh! It's a dress!
Pippin: Yeah, you look pretty.
Sage: I know! Fix it!
Pippin: And while she was fixing that, the Scarlet Shadow made her debut as an acrobat.
Scarlet: Look, I'm sideways.
Pippin: Umm, I guess that's impressive...
Scarlet: Now I'm levitating.
Pippin: Okay, now I'm impressed.
Sage: Ugh, you're making me read books!
Pippin: Yep, Sage is mastering social networking so she can use the relationship transmogrifier to make instant friends if needed.
Sage: Can't I just threaten people into liking us?
Pippin: ...I don't think that's how making friends works...
Sage: Dang it!
Pippin: But one friend was lost during this time. Melvin had just begun a romantic relationship with...some Sim with an awesome nose and lambie jammies whose name I've forgotten...
Pippin: when this happened.
Grim: Sorry, gotta take your new boyfriend away...which I guess makes you single now. Call me!
