MySims Agents Part #81 - Ep. 55: The Play's The Thing

Part 81: Ep. 55: The Play's The Thing

---

: Last time on MySims Agents: The footprints and the hammer both incriminate the zombie! But why? Why would Carl do such a thing?

---

Egged on by Trevor, Sam decides that the best way to prove Carl's guilt is to... re-enact the crime! And to do that, he needs a costume! Fortunately, we have resources.

: Can you help me make a costume?

Ms. Nicole is the best fashionista.

: Certainly, but I'll need some fabric. If you could find me something purple, I could make you Cyrus's favorite tuxedo.

: I'll see what I can find, Ms. Nicole.

Meanwhile, Trevor warms up for this very special episode of Hamlet by alas-poor-Yoricking behind Sam's back. Anyway. We've already seen some nice purple cloth, haven't we? Sam runs upstairs and goes back into the crystal room.

Yes, Sam. Curtains are cloth. Well spotted.

: Cloth acquired! I'd better give it to Ms. Nicole to make into a Cyrus costume.

Sam runs back to Ms. Nicole.

: Here's some cloth!

: Well, it's not exactly Italian silk, but I suppose I can whip something up!

Poof!

... I just now noticed that Ms. Nicole has a Sims plumb-bob in the middle of her butt plumes. Ahem. Anyway. Sam thanks Ms. Nicole and then brainstorms in his notebook.

: Cyrus was well-known for his flamboyant moustache, so I'll need one as well... I bet Trevor has experience with fake moustaches.

To Trevor! This never works out badly for us!

: What do you know about fake moustaches?

: Okay. Mustachio of wonders. Got it.

: I need to find enough wispyweed in the swamp around the house to fashion a mustachio... of wonders.

Sam leaves the house and makes his way into the swamp, where he is shortly pestered by Agent Walker.

I blame Professor Nova.

Buddy's followed us out. Maybe he can help?

: Have you seen any wispyweed?

Oh ho!

: Thanks, Buddy!

Like these?

Like these!

There's some more way in the back here, and...

waaaaah I can't reach it waaaaah

Eventually Sam manages to pick up the wispyweed he is standing on, goddamn your pathing anyway.

Well, that one's easy! Sam heads indoors--

--as I was saying, Sam heads indoors and goes back to the kitchen.

Remember this crate of flour in the kitchen? We totally steal some, and Sam updates his notebook in triumph.

: I've got everything I need! I should report in to Trevor and get this play started!

Sam hurries back out into the main room.

: I'm ready!

: Indeed! You've a tuxedo, a grand moustache, and a sack of flour to give you that ghostly pallor.

Hell yes! What are we waiting for? Let's Hamlet this bitch up!

Video: The Play (Is The Thing)
The bonus video version comes highly recommended!

Gordon and Ms. Nicole are having a desultory conversation when Sam appears.

: Attention, everyone!

They pause, turn around, and head towards where Sam waits.

Violet and Carl look at Sam, then join the group.

: Buddy and I have been investigating the mansion, and we would like to hold a little reenactment.

: You have some insight into what happened to the fortunite?

: Yes. Using scientific investigation methods, we've discovered some clues that have allowed us to recreate the events of the crime as accurately as possible.

Sam steps aside, and the camera zooms in on the impromptu 'stage' at the foot of the stairs. A cheesy piano overture plays.
