Epilogue
Tumblr media
Kitty: Where is everyone, anyway? I swear I haven't seen another Sim for weeks.
[distant explosion]
Tumblr media
Kitty: What was that?!
Tumblr media
Kitty: Hello?! Is anyone out there?!
Tumblr media
Kitty: ANYONE?!

Tumblr media
Eleanor: Oh for fuck's sake. Ladies, side bar!
Tumblr media
Eleanor: Are we seriously not going to address the elephant in the room?! And by elephant, I mean the obvious wig and clown makeup.
Mysterious Mime: Not a clown, dear, a mime. Zey are completely different!
Tumblr media
Eleanor: You stay out of this!
Tumblr media
Angela: What are you saying?
Eleanor: Really?! If your eyes somehow aren't telling you something is seriously off here, then use your head. A mysterious sixth contestant just happens to show up right after Rose reappears? Come on, I can't be the only one who sees right through that stupid disguise.
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: You wound me, mademoiselle! Zis is no disguise! Zis is how I always look! Eet ees called 'fashion'. Look eet up!
Eleanor: I am not talking to you!
Tumblr media
Angela: Hmm, she does sound a lot like Rose, now that you mention it. And her accent is rather...transient.
Tumblr media
Eleanor: We're not really going to go through with this challenge like everything is normal, right?
Viridia: ACTUALLY, I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE SHOULD DO.
Eleanor: What?!
Tumblr media
Viridia: SHE'S CLEARLY UP TO SOMETHING. WHAT BETTER WAY TO FIND OUT WHAT THAT IS BY GOING ALONG WITH IT?
Eleanor: I mean, sure, but...
Viridia: AND DON'T YOU THINK IT'S STRANGE THE WATCHER DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY KICK HER OUT?
Eleanor: Yeah, I do think that's strange. The Watcher has to know who's under that paper-thin disguise, so I don't think it's an accident that she's here.
Viridia: SO...?
Eleanor: *sigh* Fine. For the sake of morbid curiosity, let's do it.

Angela: What now? There's only one jetpack left.
Tumblr media
Angela: Maybe we could take turns? I go up and then you go up?
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: No no no, I do not share, especially with zee likes of you!
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: Eet is no concern anyway, because unlike you, a loser, I have come prepared.
Angela: H-hey!
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: See on you ze ground, loser.
Angela: You brought your own jetpack? How did you know the challenge would inclu--
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: Bon voyage, fool!
Tumblr media
Angela: Hey, wait for me!
Tumblr media
Angela: Whoa, this thing is super hard to control!
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: Only for you. I am having no trouble at all! It is because I am a true winner and not because my jetpack is being remote controlled by someone who knows what they're doing more than I!
Angela: ...what?
Tumblr media
Mysterious Mime: Hey, check zees out!
Tumblr media
Angela: Oh my God, you hit my jetpack!
Tumblr media
Angela: HELP MEEEEE!
Tumblr media
Angel: Gotcha!
Tumblr media
Angel: Hold on to me. I won't let you fall.
Tumblr media
Angel: Careful, now.
Tumblr media
Angela: Oh my God, you saved me! You really are an angel!
Tumblr media
Angela: Unlike some people.

Tumblr media
Eleanor: Whoa whoa whoa, what do you mean 'who is Aiden'?! He's the Bachelor! You know, the whole reason we're competing in the first place?!
Angela: Surely you can't be serious!
Tumblr media
Rose: I am serious! 🤭 And don't call me--
Viridia: IF YOU FINISH THAT SENTENCE, I WILL END YOU MYSELF.
Tumblr media
Eleanor: Gaaaaaaah, I hate you people.
Angela: Then I guess I need you to explain a lot more than the murder attempt because if you aren't competing for Aiden's heart -- the alleged premise of the show -- what are you competing for?
Tumblr media
Rose: I. keep. TELLING YOU! I want to WIN! 😠
Tumblr media
Angela: Yes, but win what?!
Tumblr media
Rose: Uggggh, you're so dense, it physically hurts. 😩
Viridia: STOP TALKING IN CIRCLES AND JUST EXPLAIN SOMETHING FOR ONCE!
Rose: Haven't you ever heard the expression 'winning isn't everything, it's the only thing'? 🙄
Tumblr media
Angela: Yeah, I've heard toxic Little League coaches say that to crying seven year olds. And?
Tumblr media
Rose: Seriously?! It's the principle I've based my entire life on! It's my mantra! My raison d'être! 👿
Viridia: WATCH OUT, SHE'S GOING FRENCH AGAIN.
Angel: So the whole reason you snuck back into the house, disguised yourself as a mime, sloppily painted your blue stripes purple, tried to kill Angela, and potentially scarred Aiden for life was...because of an expression everyone uses ironically?
Rose: It's not ironic to me, dammit! It's my sole purpose in life! Everyone knows that, even the Watcher! And she...she used it against me. 😓 She promised me that if I made the competition interesting for her, she'd let me back into the house.
Eleanor: Wait. What?! Say that again.
Rose: When I broke into her control room, she made me an offer: I'd get to come back and compete again as long as I did something to shake up the status quo. She was getting bored of you idiots. 🥱
Tumblr media
Angel: I-I can't believe this.
Bailey: I know what you mean...
Angel: One of us got to meet the Watcher in person and it wasn't me.
Rose: Look, Angel, if it makes you feel any better, she's not what you think. She's...crazy. 😦
Bailey: High praise coming from you.
Rose: And not only that, she seriously doesn't know how 'Earth reality shows' as she calls them work because holy shit, this whole thing has been one clusterfuck from the beginning. 🙄 She says it's a Bachelor-type dating show but she's run the whole thing like a survival show with the challenges and eliminations. I mean half of us haven't even met this Arwin-or-whatever, let alone been on a date with him. What sense does that make?! 😵
Tumblr media
Aiden: It's Aiden. I'm Aiden!
Tumblr media
Eleanor: You're right. I thought this whole thing was shoddily arranged but I've never seen any reality dating shows. For all I knew, this is how they're supposed to be.
Rose: Well I've seen hundreds of them, and believe me, this is not how they're supposed to be. Arlo is supposed to spend time with all of us one-on-one, not be shoved into a pod by himself ninety percent of the time. 😣 I don't know how they do shows like this back on her planet but it's not how we do it on Earth. 👽
Tumblr media
Eleanor: On...her...planet? The Watcher is an alien?
Tumblr media
Rose: Well duh. 😑 You couldn't tell? Why do you think she abducted us all at the casting call? She had to get us on more familiar turf.
Angel: That doesn't make any sense. The Watcher can't be an alien. She's an eternal extra-dimensional being of pure benevolence.
Viridia: WILL YOU SHUT UP ABOUT YOUR RELIGION, ALREADY?! CLEARLY SOMETHING ELSE IS GOING ON.
Eleanor: I knew it, we really are in the Lunar Lakes moon settlement. I could tell from the trees. But...why are we the only Sims here?
Rose: I don't know and I don't care. 🤨
Wow. You really exposed me to everyone, huh, Rose?
Rose: You exposed yourself! You should have just let me win from the jump and I wouldn't have had to tell everyone what I knew. 😖
I guess it really is a good thing I didn't tell you the whole plan, then, huh? Otherwise you'd have run your mouth to Aiden.
Rose: Yeah yeah, Argyle or whoever-the-fuck. Well, I held up my end of the bargain. You're going to call this whole thing off and just announce me the winner, riiiiight? 🤤
Why would I do that?
Rose: Because...I made things interesting for you, like we agreed on. 😕
Then why am I still bored?
Rose: I-- 😶
You haven't won anything, Rose. You're still the same loser you were when you walked into this place on the first day. And that's all you'll ever be.
Rose: ...
Nothing to say to that?
Tumblr media
Rose: I am going to kick. your. ass. 😡

Tumblr media
Bailey: What is all this stuff?
Eleanor: Well, Aiden? Does anything look like a wormhole generator to you?
Tumblr media
Bailey: I wonder if I could turn this computer on...
Robotic voice over the intercom: Detonation in T-minus 40 seconds.
Eleanor: Bailey! Whatever you're doing, we don't have time for it!
Tumblr media
Aiden: This! It looks a little different from what I'm used to but I'm pretty sure it's this.
Robotic voice over the intercom: Detonation in T-minus 30 seconds.
Eleanor: 'Pretty sure' will have to do. We'll go in pairs. Buddy system, and all that. I've got Angel.
Viridia: I'VE GOT AIDEN.
Angela: That leaves me and Bailey.
Angel: Is this safe? Do we even know where we're going to end up?
Robotic voice over the intercom: Detonation in T-minus 20 seconds.
Eleanor: No, but if we stay here, we're going to end up dead.
Angel: Good point.
Tumblr media
Angel: Here goes nothing.
Eleanor: See you all on the other side!

Bailey: They're gone.

Robotic voice over the intercom: Detonation in T-minus 15 seconds.
Viridia: WAIT!
Tumblr media
Viridia: IT'S BEEN--*cough* it's been truly wonderful getting to meet you. i mean it. this whole thing has been wild and unpredictable and kind of insane but it was all worth it to get to know you.
Robotic voice over the intercom: Detonation in T-minus 10 seconds.
Aiden: I really wish we had more time together.
Viridia: we'll have plenty of time when we get where we're going. but just in case something goes wrong, i want you to know...

Robotic voice over the intercom: 9...8...

The Wall of Woe is the next obstacle! Can the contestants survive?!
Tumblr media
Viridia: READY TO LOSE?
Eleanor: You wish. I was a climber as a kid. Trees, gutter pipes, you name it. This'll be a breeze.
Cut the chatter, ladies, we're on the clock here.
Tumblr media
And it's Viridia in front, no surprise there. The fifteen pounds of filthy gutter rags must be weighing Eleanor down.
Tumblr media
Viridia: MADE IT!
And Viridia wins the wall race by a country mile!
Tumblr media
Viridia: HEAR THAT, AIDEN? WE'RE GOING ON A SECOND DATE!
Oh ho ho! Getting ahead of ourselves, are we? Don't forget, there's still the Platform of Precarious Peril and the Jetpack of Jeopardy to contend with!
Tumblr media
Ten minutes on the clock. Whoever lands (or crashes) first loses!
Tumblr media
And they're off! Isn't this exciting? Isn't this thrilling? Isn't this pulse-pounding action?
Tumblr media
Viridia: IT'S PEACEFUL UP HERE. I NEVER THOUGHT I'D ENVY BIRDS, BUT IMAGINE EXPERIENCING TRUE FREEDOM LIKE THIS ON A REGULAR BASIS. NOTHING HOLDING YOU BACK, JUST YOU, THE SKY, AND THE INFINITE HORIZON.
Tumblr media
Eleanor: HolyfuckI'mgonnadie
Tumblr media
Virdia: I FEEL LIKE A CLOUD! A BEAUTIFUL, ETHEREAL CLOUD WAFTING ON THE BREEZE!
Tumblr media
Eleanor: HowdoyoulandthisthingIwannagetdown
Tumblr media
*crash*
Well. You're down now.
Tumblr media
Eleanor: Sweet merciful ground! I am never doing that again!
Viridia: DON'T BE SO DRAMATIC. LANDING CAN'T BE THAT HARD!
Tumblr media
Viridia: OH SHIT, I, VIRIDIA, WAS WRONG!
Tumblr media
Uh...you good?
Tumblr media
Viridia: YEAH, NOTHING INJURED BUT MY PRIDE. AND MY SPLEEN.

Viridia: AH! I DEFINITELY NEEDED THIS!
Tumblr media
Angela: Oh yeah, flavored bubbles cure everything, including awkward dates. Speaking of dates...
Tumblr media
Viridia: IT ACTUALLY WASN'T AS AWKWARD AS YOU MIGHT THINK. IT WAS KIND OF ROMANTIC, IN A WEIRD WAY.
Angela: Really? I wasn't expecting that. Aiden seems so nervous all the time, I was expecting a total disaster.
Tumblr media
Viridia: HE WAS TREMBLING THE WHOLE TIME BUT IT ONLY MADE HIM CUTER, TO BE HONEST.
Tumblr media
Angela: So do you think you two have a future outside of this show?
Tumblr media
Viridia: I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE. I TRY NOT TO THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE TOO MUCH.
Tumblr media
Viridia: AFTER ALL, SOMETHING UNEXPECTED COULD HAPPEN AT ANY MOMENT.

Viridia: i know.

Aiden: Maybe we could do it again?

Viridia: WHOA, HOLD YOUR HORSES THERE, SPACE COWBOY.

Aiden: Wh-what? But I thought we were getting along.
Viridia: WE ARE, BUT...

Viridia: I PREFER ROMANCE ON MY TERMS.

There. Isn't everyone more comfortable now?
Tumblr media
Eleanor: No!
Viridia: I KIND OF AM...
Tumblr media
Eleanor: Why are you still dressed like a clown when we all know who you are now?
Tumblr media
Rose: I already told you, I'm not a clown, I'm a mime! 😤 Also the makeup wouldn't wash off. And I might have used a little too much wig glue... 😟
Tumblr media
Aiden: Have you tried sulfuric acid? I hear that works wonders at removing mimes from existence.
Holy shit, Aiden!
Aiden: I don't like mimes!
Tumblr media
Rose: Look, can we just get past the mime thing? I have a bone to pick with Princess Angela here and I didn't get to say my piece at the challenge course. 🤨
Tumblr media
Angela: By all means, please continue your thoughts! I'd love to know why I'm such a big threat that you tried to literally murder me!
Tumblr media
Rose: Simply put, I don't trust you. 🙃 I don't buy the sweet innocent image you try to put out into the world. Always being nice to everyone, always trying to make friends. We're not here to make friends.
Tumblr media
Angela: But...I am. It's the only reason I signed up for the show, to be honest. I was lonely. I saw an ad for a casting call in the newspaper and I thought, if nothing else, I could make some friends if I was picked for the show. I never expected to be shot into outer space. Still, I'm glad for the experience. I've met so many nice people here and...and you, Rose. I really thought you and I hit it off the first few days. I really thought you were my friend.
Tumblr media
Rose: Wow, you're an idiot then. I'm not here for you. I'm here to win.
Tumblr media
Bailey: You keep saying that, but do you even really care about Aiden?
Rose: Who the fuck is Aiden? 🤨

Tumblr media
Rose: Oh yes, Miss Pure Perfect Princess wants to be everyone's friend, doesn't she? 🙄 You're just soooo sweet, aren't you? 🤪
Tumblr media
Angela: Please tell me what I did so I can apologize! What did I do to make you act like this towards me?
Tumblr media
Rose: It's very simple, Angela. You're competition. 😠

This is the moment where I reveal that the Non-Canon Just Because I Feel Like It Bachelor Challenge was always canon and was never a bachelor challenge. 😈
But you all figured that out already ages ago. 🤭
And now, for the Marvel-esque announcement:

Viridia: it's not your fault, baby.
Aiden: *sobbing*
Viridia: it's ok, baby. let it out. i've got you.
Tumblr media
Angela: I don't even know why I came over here. Bubbles aren't going to fix this. I just saw someone die in front of me! Why am I so stupid?
Bailey: You're not stupid, Angela. You're in shock. We all are.
Tumblr media
Bailey: I know what it feels like to lose someone. Not in the same way, of course, but it feels like a piece of you is missing. Some potential future you'll never experience now. I know you and Rose weren't even close but...
Angela: I feel like we could have been, you know? If we could have just put this stupid competition behind us, we could have been friends. None of this had to play out the way that it did.
Bailey: I know. I'm sorry.
Tumblr media
Angel: Everything is a lie, my faith is a lie, my life is a lie.
Eleanor: Listen to me, you need to get a hold of yourself. There will be time to break down later but right now, we need to move. Rose said something about a wormhole generator. We have to find it. We have to get out of here because I'm pretty sure something even worse is about to hap--
Robotic voice over the intercom: Self destruct mode engaged.

Eleanor: Oh fuck me sideways! I knew it!

Aoife: I--I am a monster! What have I done?!

Aoife: Psych! That was the most fun I've had in eighteen cycles!
Tumblr media
Aoife: Did you see her face? All the spasming and twitching? She was like "bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeh I'm dying, skull emoooojiiii".
Tumblr media
Aoife: Anyway, I'd love to stick around but I have a villainous escape to make before the shock wears off and you all attack me.
Tumblr media
Aoife: Oh, and Aiden? I'll be seeing you again real soon.

Aoife: Toodles!
