Episode 3: Under the SeaThat's the secret to an easy first generation, a day one Motive Mobile. You can call it "The Never Need to Eat, Pee, Sleep, Socialize, Shower, or Have Fun Ever Again Vehicle" if you really want to. Agnes, being the frugal sim she is, went to join the Architectual Designer profession for that 40% discount on build/buy mode. David on the other hand, fully aware of what's going to happen in the future if he goes into business and handiness again, decides to try something different...
David: "Professional Chainsaw on Ice Man"
Clerk: That's a very popular career among housewives. Congratulations on your new self-employment career.
David's taking care of the sculpting himself this time. Although David is officially a Professional Chainsaw on Ice Man, he has to first earn his license to use a chainsaw. It's like driving, need to be able to tell the brakes from the gas before you can learn to break the speed limit and phase through other cars.
Wow, the older David wasn't kidding about a change in the future, I mean look at that overbite Agnes has now! Back on topic, as soon as the consignment store opened, Agnes went over there to buy a camera.
Agnes: Hi I'd like to buy a camera.
Cornelia Goth: Oh hey Agnes, how's life these days?
Agnes: Funny story, someone came to my house, charmed me, married me, then sold my car.
Corenlia Goth: How did he charm someone that's grumpy?
Agnes: That's a good question... do you have a camera?
Cornelia Goth: Just got one today, it's yours for $1,518.
Agnes: I'll take it!
Cornelia Goth: I also have a time machine.
Agnes: I'll take it!
Cornelia Goth: Oh and you'll want the instruction manual for that camera. "Taking Off the Lens," they made a book on that?
Agnes: I'll take it!
Cornelia Goth: For a frugal sim, you sure are impulsive.
At least hitting clay with a chisel pays the bills
Agnes: One dollar!? I'd rather have no bills at all.
Frustrated with the one dollar bill, Agnes felt like taking out her rage on a piece of clay. No hammer, just hitting a piece of clay with a chisel over and over again. David doesn't need a chisel anymore, he has a license to use a chainsaw. What else is Agnes going to do now that her painting is maxed?
Agnes: ONE! DOLLAR! BILL! ONE!!! DOLLAR!!! ARRRRRRRGH!!!
David: (I better wish for no bills ever when I'm happy enough.)
Eventually, it was Agnes's birthday and because the two have been so busy sculpting and driving around town in their Motive Mobile, they still haven't built a house. Will Agnes have to have her birthday cake without a home? Of course not! Agnes isn't going to have any of that.
Agnes: Build me a house so I don't have to have my birthday on an empty lot.
David: But you're an architectual designer. What if I gave you money and you built it?
Agnes: Works for me.
David: Oh and don't make it Chinese themed this time. Go for something crazy
Agnes: What are you talking about?
David: (Oh, right, only I know about the future) Nevermind, just do something crazy.
$90,000 later...
David: Not what I had in mind.
Agnes: That big tower thing isn't where we're living.
David: Seriously? What did you do?
Agnes: We're living underwater!
David: That's... pretty crazy. How much did you spend?
Agnes: $90,000.
David: And you claim to be frugal...
Ladies and gentlemen, we have an underwater dynasty house.
