And then there were three.
With Motoki gone, Meggie and Snow and Jeromy were the remaining contestants.
With supporting company of ghosts. Deep discussion about holes, here.
Tita interviewed Meggie, Snow and Jeromy.
"How do you feel about what happened to Motoki?"
"At least you didn't have to bury him," Jeromy. "That was hard work, burying the others."
"Dead bodies make great fertilizer," said Tita. "We're all getting pretty good at gardening now."
Jeromy laughed sourly "As in, we are getting good at pushing up daisies?"
Snow was disposing of dead plants and felt this comment was in very bad taste..
Tita found out who had pinched her clothes. And pinched theirs!
She took them to the fishing hole to look for critters. Meggie and Snow were not amused as they had to come in their towels.
Tita told them that their next challenge would be to find the most valuable critters. Insects, small rodents, and such, and to keep what they caught alive long enough to get it back to the camp and display it.
"I'm gonna give someone a fright in a minute."
"You already are, duck."
The contestants set off running, in three different directions, towels waving in the breeze.
Meanwhile, she went fishing.
Meggie caught two Agama Lizards, an Iguana, a Cockatoo, and a Pygmy Tortoise.
Snow caught a Western painted Turtle, a Malayan Krait Snake, an African Grey Parrot, and a Spiny Turtle.
Jeromy caught a Nuthatch, and three chipmunks.
So the winner of this challenge is Snow.
Tita put all the critters into tanks, terraria and birdcages.
"OK, now go and collect some more seeds for the garden, while I work out who wins this round, or rather, who loses."
Snow can't lose this round, so it's between Meggie and Jeromy.
The parrot was the most popular of all the pets. Maybe that was to do with it forming a captive audience.
He did like to talk to the pets.
Even the ghosts liked the pets.
The relationship values were very close, so as a tie-breaker Tita sent Snow, Meggie and Jeromy out to try to find some valuable seeds for the garden.
| Unknown Uncommon Seed | Unknown Special Seed | ||
| Meggie | 0 | 0 | |
| Snow | 1 | 4 | |
| Jeromy | 1 | 2 |
Meggie collected 0 seeds. She kept getting distracted. So she loses this round.
meanwhile, back at camp, Tita was investigating a hole Snow had made with the miner, when she fell in.
After having a look around and satisfying herself that this tunnel was not connected to any Science Facilities, she climbed out again, filthy of course.
This, and feeding the pets, delayed Meggie's send-off party. But finally they got to the graveyard.
Well, how do you expect a Sim to look when she has just been told she's about to die? "I'll try to make it painless," said Tita.
"Oops. That didn't work too well."
Meggie died by lightening. Snow was very upset. When the Reaper came she tried to argue with him.
"Jeebus kept staring at my boobs. Maybe I should change my shirt."
