Stephanie: "I'm so happy we're finally going on a date, Finley!" |
Finley: "Resist... urge... to... record... sim tube... video..." |
Finley decided to take Stephanie to this beautiful restaurant downtown! |
Finley: "Hey there! I'm Finley Parsons, famous sim tuber!" |
Host: "I don't care." |
Host: "Table for one?" |
Finley: "You're really gonna pretend you don't know who I am?" |
Host: "I have no idea who you are. Table for one?" |
Finley: "Uh... table for two..." |
Townie: "I can't believe that guy doesn't know who Finley Parsons is!" |
Host: "Here is your table. Enjoy your meal." |
Stephanie: "I wonder what I should order..." |
Finley: "This menu looks a bit too basic for my celebrity taste buds." |
Stephanie: "You look super cute today, Finley!" |
Finley: "Gee, thanks, babe! So do you." |
Stephanie: "Are we finally talking about something other than sim tube?" |
Finley: "Yeah, today is all about you, babe." |
Stephanie: "It is?" |
Finley: "Of course!" |
Finley: "You can have any meal you want!" |
Stephanie: "Thanks, Finley... but it's not about the meal, it's about spending time with you." |
Finley: "Got it. Anything for you." |
Stephanie: "That's so sweet!" |
Finley: "My viewers don't call me the romantic master for nothing." |
Stephanie: "I thought we weren't going to discuss your sim tube channel today." |
Finley: "Oh... right, I forgot. Anyways, did you order your favorite food?" |
Stephanie: "Yeah, maybe you could try the same thing!" |
Stephanie: "It's super delicious, I've ordered it here before!" |
Finley: "Sure, I love trying new things!" |
Eliza Pancakes is the waitress. |
Waitress: "Are you ready to order yet?" |
Stephanie: "Ah, yes, I'll have my usual, please!" |
Waitress: "Of course." |
Finley: "And I'll have the same thing." |
Stephanie: "We'll also get a cream cola, please!" |
Stephanie: "You're gonna absolutely love it!" |
Finley: "I hope so!" |
Finley: "I'll probably love it almost as much as I love looking into your beautiful eyes." |
Stephanie: "I love when you're romantic, Finley" |
Finley: "There's plenty more where that came from." |
Stephanie: "Maybe we can go to a random bush later and you can show me!" No bush woohooing! |
Here comes the meal to break up that weird conversation. |
Waitress: "Enjoy your meal!" |
The meal is ice cream... why? Because I thought I was selecting a full course meal, but apparently you can only select one dish, so only dessert came out. |
Stephanie: "Here it is!" |
Finley: "Ice cream for lunch... hooray..." |
And cream cola! |
Finley: "You know what? Ice cream for lunch isn't so bad." |
Stephanie: "See? I told ya!" |
Waitress: "I've waited long enough. I want Finley's autograph." |
Stephanie: "Uh... she could have at least waited until we finished our ice cream." |
Finley: "Looks like we'd better eat it faster so we can get out of here. I can hear more fans swarming." |
Stephanie: "Oof! Looks like I ate my ice cream too fast!" |
Stephanie: "Brain freeze!" |
Finley: "This has been really great." |
Stephanie: "Yeah, it has! I've had a grand ol time!" |
Finley: "What do you say we get out of here? These waitresses are starting to get creepy." |
Being watched while eating isn't creepy... not at all... |
Waitress: "So, no autograph for me?" No! Go away! |
These two have had a great date! Time for them to continue it elsewhere. |
At a beautiful park nearby! |
Finley: *Yawn* |
Finley: "I'm kinda tired..." |
Finley: "Aren't you?" |
Stephanie: "Wow, that was smooth." |
Finley: "I wanted to apologise for being such a self obsessed jerk lately. I want you to know that you mean more to me than anything in the world." |
Uh oh... |
Fan: "Oh my gosh, it's Finley Parsons!" |
Fan: "I can't believe I'm actually seeing Finley Parsons out in public!" |
Fan: "Ahh! This is so exciting!" |
Stephanie: "Looks like leaving the restaurant didn't help avoiding the swarming fans." |
Finley: "Don't worry, we won't let them ruin our date." |
Fan: "Yes! It's Finley Parsons! I've finally witnessed him in a public vicinity! I can cross that off my bucket list!" |
Stephanie: "It seems like they're almost as happy to be around you as I am." |
Finley: "Everyone is happy in my presence." |
Fan: "I wonder if I can get his attention!" |
Fan: "FINLEY! FINLEEEY! OVER HERE!" |
Finley: "That screaming fan won't stop be from staring into your beautiful eyes." |
Fan: "Hehe! He acknowledged me!" |
This fan has been passed out for quite some time. |
*Kiss* |
Stephanie: "Should we really kiss right here? What if someone gets pictures of us?" |
Finley: "More pictures = more attention = more sim tube views!" |
*Kiss* |
Fan: "Look over there! Finley and Stephanie are kissing!" |
Fan: "They are? Should we take a picture of them and post it on simstagram?" |
No, you should leave! |
Finley: *Sigh* Stephanie: "They're starting to get on my last nerve." |
Fan: "Hey, Stephanie! You're so beautiful in person!" |
Stephanie: "Oh... hehe... thanks." |
Fan: "I need to pretend I'm taking a selfie while I'm actually taking a picture of Finley." |
Finley: "Alright, get some pictures, everyone." |
Fan: "I've gotta upload this picture of Finley to simstagram!" |
Finley: "Hey, there. Wanna take a selfie for simstagram so you can leave me alone?" |
I don't think the fans will leave him alone even after this. |
Stephanie: "You guys kinda crashed our date." Fan: "Finley belongs to his fans, not to you." |
Fan: "That's a great picture! Can we take 50 more?" |
Fan: "I can't believe you got a selfie with Finley Parsons!" |
Fan: "I know, right? I'm gonna tell everyone I know!" |
Stephanie: "Your fans love you a lot, but I can't blame them." |
Finley: "Me neither." |
Fan: "Finley! Can I have a hug, please, please, please?!" |
Finley: "Sure, it was nice to meet you." |
Fan: "It was the greatest experience of my life meeting you!" |
Fan: "Finley just hugged me!" |
Fan: "What?! He didn't hug me!" |
Fan: "Look! I'm touching his arm!" |
Fan: "I wanna touch his arm!" |
Finley: "I think I'd better get out of here, these fans are getting more and more crazy by the second." |
Finley: "I had an amazing day with you, Steph." |
Stephanie: "Me too, it was such a great date." |
Finley: "I'm sorry about all those fans." |
Stephanie: "It's okay, as long as I'm with you, it feels like we're the only two sims in the room." |
Aww, these two are so adorable! |
Finley: "Now, let's finish this date off right." |
Stephanie: "Finley! What are you-" |
*Kiss* |
He really is smooth. |
Guys... |
THAT'S ENOUGH! |
Stephanie: "What a perfect way to end our date." |
Finley: "Wanna go upstairs and see all the pictures the fans uploaded of me onto simstagram? I bet I look amazing." |
Pupcake: "While they were enjoying their romantic date, I've been waiting for someone to fill up my food bowl." You have an automatic food bowl! |
Kylan: "Hey there, Lemon Pie." |
Lemon Pie: "Can I haz some pets?" |
Aww, so cute! |
Peach: "I've barked many barks, but it's time for me to go." |
Nooooooooooooooooooooo! Not our precious Peach! |
Rest In Peace, Peach Parsons. You were an adorable, energetic little dog, and you will be dearly missed. |
Servo gets extra sad about the pets deaths. He loves the pets so much. |
Kylan: "I went to get some chips and I come back to a tragedy?" |
Grim Reaper: "Sup?" Your presence isn't even startling anymore. |
Uh... I just looked up the side of the house, and I never realised how many fur balls the Parsons pets have left over here. What the heck?! |
Pupcake loves sleeping at the end of someone's bed every night. |
This celebrity walking around might be even cooler than Finley. |
Stephanie is pregnant! |
Generation 13 is on the way! |
Stephanie: "Babe! I'm pregnant!" |
Finley: "Imagine how many views we're gonna get with this announcement." |
Stephanie: "Forget about that, aren't you excited about a Parsons baby!" Finley: "I've heard they're crazy, but yes!" They're beyond crazy. |
Filming for Dignity & Decorum begins in a few hours, so Piper is trying to remember as many lines as possible! |
I just noticed this neighbor's lawn ornaments, and they are fabulous. |
Stephanie: "We should get some lawn ornaments!" |
It's filming daaay! |
Are you excited, Piper? Piper: "Sure am!" |
Once again, the set looks amazing! |
Piper: "Time to get into hair and makeup." |
Looks like Piper's co-stars are warming up for the scene. |
Piper: "Are you ready to make me look like an old timer?" |
Makeup Artist: "I can't make you look like a goth today?" I don't think goths existed in the Victorian era. |
No gothic looks... |
I REPEAT, NO GOTHIC LOOKS! |
Makeup Artist: "Fine, but no stupid pink hair, either." |
What are you doing to Piper's precious pink hair? |
Makeup Artist: "Ta-da!" |
Hey, it actually doesn't look that bad! Piper: "I look great! Costume time!" |
Piper: "You got any old dresses for me?" |
Stylist: "I sure do, I hope you don't mind wearing a corset." |
Piper: "How bad can it be?" |
Piper: "I can barely breathe in this thing." |
Piper: "I'd better join my co-stars and warm up before we begin filming!" |
Piper: "Do you not remember your lines either?" |
Co-Star: "Nope... maybe we can just improv." |
Piper: "That doesn't sound like a bad idea..." |
Piper: "Do I look like a convincing Mary Estatenab?" |
Co-Star: "You sure do, I couldn't ask for a better co-star, even though we co-star in everything together!" |
Piper: "Shall we begin filming?" |
Co-Star: "It's your call!" |
Piper: "I'm gonna go talk to the director!" |
Looks like this is the director for Dignity and Decorum. |
Piper: "I've heard a lot of great things about you as a director." |
Director: "Gee, thanks. That's not gonna make me give you any special starring roles in the future, though." |
Piper: "She's onto me." |
To the stage! |
Get into character, y'all! |
Director: "Filming for Dignity and Decorum, scene one, take one!" |
Director: "Lights!" |
Director: "Camera!" |
Director: "...Aaand... ACTION!" |
Mary Estatenab: "Ah, nothing like drinking a nice, sophisticated glass of water with my true love." What the heck is a sophisticated glass of water? |
Mary Estatenab: "Let's make a toast to our ever growing wealth!" |
John Estatenab: "Can we get this over with? I have some lumber to chop with the mysterious lady in the yard whom I am most certainly not woohooing with." |
Mary Estatenab: "A toast to the Estatenab family!" |
Mary & John Estatenab: "To us!" |
Director: "Aaand, CUT!" |
Piper: "Oof." |
Piper: "The Estatenab family sure are dramatic and messy, aren't they?" |
Co-Star: "Aren't all daytime TV families dramatic and messy? They have no dignity or decorum whatsoever!" |
Director: "Dignity and Decorum, scene two, take one!" |
Director: "ACTION!" |
Mary Estatenab: "John, dear..." |
Mary Estatenab: "Would you please, for once, come inside and be with our children." |
John Estatenab: "I told you, Mary..." |
John: "I'm outside... chopping lumber... I'm a busy man! I don't have time for you or the children." |
Mary Estatenab: "You know what? Fine, go chop your lumber." |
Director: "CUT!" |
Director: "Scene three, take one." |
This scene looks like it'll be dramatic. |
Direcor: "ACTION!" |
Piper: "I'm in the zone." |
Elizabeth: "Mary, did you finally divorce that poor excuse for a husband, John Estatenab?" |
Mary Estatenab: "John thinks he's the only one 'chopping lumber'..." |
Elizabeth: "Little does he know, everyone in the Estatenab family is just as messy as he is." |
Mary Estatenab: "Never mind him, he shall be gone once I leave him behind." |
Mary Estatenab: "And you and I shall be together at last." |
Elizabeth: "That's what you thought... I'm actually the mysterious woman from the yard 'chopping lumber' with your husband!" |
Director: "Aaand, CUT!" |
Oh my gosh, what a cliff-hanger! I guess the viewers will have to wait until next season to see how this story continues. |
Director: "Time for the final scene!" |
Piper: "There's another scene?" |
You thought there were three divided rooms for nothing?" |
Piper: "Alright, gotta get back into character." |
Director: "Aaand... ACTION!" |
Piper: "I'm in the ZONE." |
Mary Estatenab: "We left a lot of questions unanswered this season." |
Mary Estatenab: "However, don't we all love a cliff-hanger?" |
Mary Estatenab: "The Estatenab may be messy and everchanging." |
Mary Estatenab: "However, one thing's for sure." |
Mary Estatenab: "The Estatenab family shall always have generational wealth." |
Mary Estatenab: "Which is the only Dignity and Decorum we shall ever have." |
Director: "CUT! That's a wrap, everyone!" |
Piper: "Phew! That was a hard character to play!" |
Crew Member: "Can I pee yet?!" |
Piper: "I think I did a pretty good job." |
Piper: "However, I can't think about that for too long. I've gotta get into my next audition ASAP." |
> Finley: "Resist... urge... to... record... sim tube... video..."
ReplyDeleteHahaha! :D I admire Finley's willpower.
> Stephanie: "Thanks, Finley... but ... it's about spending time with you."
Stephanie is working so hard to deepen their relationship. <3
> Eliza Pancakes is the waitress.
That's a great name for a waitress! :D I like the restaurant's design, especially the patio section where Finley and Stephanie are dining.
> No bush woohooing!
XD XD XD
> The meal is ice cream...
I was curious to see what Stephanie would select! I think it works, though. It's cute that Stephanie's favourite meal is ice cream. :3
> Being watched while eating isn't creepy... not at all...
The wait staff are very attentive in this restaurant. ;)
> These two have had a great date!
I'm so happy for them both! <3
> At a beautiful park nearby!
Look at that waterfall! The parks in TS4 are lovely.
> Finley: "I wanted to apologise for being such a self obsessed jerk lately. I want you to know that you mean more to me than anything in the world."
Ahhhhh! <3 This is the version of Finley I've been waiting to see. I knew he had it in him. :)
> *Kiss* (park bench)
It's so romantic to see them kissing on a park bench! *swoon* :D
> Fan: "Look! I'm touching his arm!"
This line made me laugh out loud! XD I love how you interpret what Townies are doing in the background.
> *Kiss* (dip kiss)
Finley has mad kissing skills! XD It warms my heart to see Finley and Stephanie being so affectionate.
> Peach: "I've barked many barks, but it's time for me to go."
Noooo! :( Not Peach! I'm sorry to see her go. It feels like she just arrived!
> Servo gets extra sad about the pets deaths. He loves the pets so much.
Oh, this makes me sad too. :( But also touched at Servo's close relationship with the pets.
> Kylan: "I went to get some chips and I come back to a tragedy?"
Sim life. :/
> Pupcake loves sleeping at the end of someone's bed every night.
So cute! :3
> This celebrity walking around might be even cooler than Finley.
She certainly is stylish! :)
> Stephanie is pregnant!
YAAAY!! Really looking forward to meeting their children.
> It's filming daaay!
I can hardly wait to visit the set of Dignity & Decorum!
Now that I think of it, that's an odd title for a *Sim* show. Most Sims aren't too dignified and decorous! XD I guess that's what makes the soap aspirational, along with the fancy lifestyle.
> Once again, the set looks amazing!
The set does not disappoint!
I wasn't expecting the show to set in Victorian times. This just keeps getting better! :)
> Co-Star: "Aren't all daytime TV families dramatic and messy? They have no dignity or decorum whatsoever!"
Called it! XD I'm loving the show so far.
> Mary Estatenab: "John thinks he's the only one 'chopping lumber'..."
I love this new euphemism you've invented! XD
> Crew Member: "Can I pee yet?!"
XD
I thoroughly enjoyed this update! Joining Finley and Stephanie on their date was so much fun - I like how their relationship is developing - and I'm thrilled that I got to see Piper film Dignity & Decorum! Learning that Gen 13 is on the way is the icing on the cake. Thanks for posting! :)
The urge to record a sim tube video is always there for Finley! xD
DeleteI just realized how fitting the name Eliza Pancakes is for a waitress! :D She's one of the OG townies in TS4, she's married to Bob Pancakes. I think they're meant to be a nod to Betty and Bob Newbie?
I'm sure Finley and Stephanie's drinks were filled immediately with the wait staff being so close at all times. :D
Park bench kisses are definitely so romantic, even with squealing fans nearby!
I get just as sad as Servo about the pet deaths. :(
> Most Sims aren't too dignified and decorous!
I just laughed out loud! No truer words have ever been spoken! This show is more like a Victorian "The Bold and the Beautiful".
I'm so happy you enjoyed this update, thanks so much for reading! :)
