ASYLUM CHALLENGE - CHAPTER 2  - THE CASE FILES - PART 1

Snow White was dropped off on the sidewalk in front of a run-down house. The orderly who had driven her had thrust 7 files in her hand and given her a letter from Dr. Humbert Huntsman.

Orderly: "Read the letter. It explains everything. There are guards on duty, so if you need help, ask them..."

But before Snow White could even utter a word, he was gone and she was left standing there unsure of what to do. She looked at the letter in her hands and opened it. Inside, Dr. Huntsman had explained that she would be looking after some sims who, like herself, were a bit confused and needed her help. She could leave the house and explore the neighborhood between the hours of 12:00am-5:00am, and if travelling elsewhere, she would have to travel with all the residents. This could be done between the hours of 6:00pm-11:00pm. He told her about the terms of her release, but she really didn't have any skills and wasn't sure what tasks she should focus on. Perhaps if she went inside the house, she could look around and maybe get some inspiration. She carefully placed the letter back in the envelope and saw a $100 simoleon bill tucked inside. A post-it note was attached to it merely stating "house budget". Well, at least she had some simoleons to work with.

As she entered the house, she went into the living room and sat down. She then opened each file and read about the sims who she would be living with. There were seven in all.

(Main Floor - Snow is in the living room area of the asylum).

Patient 90210 - Female - Young Adult - Emilia Hurley

Summary: Blast-from-the-past confused wanna-be Prom Queen waiting for a promposal to attend the prom.

Snow's thoughts: Snow had never had a promposal from anyone, nor had she ever gone to the prom. A prom sounded so magical. She hoped that she could go to one someday. Was this "star quarterback" like a Prince who Emilia hoped would come for her? It sounded so romantic and similar to the wish that Snow White herself had. But...what if he didn't know where Emilia was to ask her? Then Emilia wouldn't be able to go to the prom and that would make Emilia sad. And that just wouldn't do. Snow thought for a moment. Well....maybe Emilia and Snow could go to the prom together. Is this something that was done? Could you go to the prom with a friend? And would they even be allowed to go, now that they were...here? All Snow knew was that she had to help Emilia get to that prom.

Patient 1999 - Female - Young Adult - Shanda Lear

Summary: Perpetual party girl and mischief maker. A law breaker who will do anything to attend a party.

Snow's thoughts: Shanda sounded like she knew a lot about parties. Oh the clothes Shanda must have and all the stories that she could tell. Snow wondered if Shanda knew some of the current dances, as Snow so liked to dance and sing. Shanda sounded like she was a lot of fun. But wait! If Shanda knows about parties, maybe she knows about proms, too, and where to go to one. That would help Emilia a lot. But breaking the law to attend a party? Snow certainly didn't want to do anything bad or end up in jail. But maybe Shanda knew some other ways to get to a party. And if Shanda knew, maybe Shanda, Emilia, and Snow could all go to the prom together. Heck! Maybe all of the residents could go to the prom. Snow smiled and liked that idea a lot.

Patient 31 - Female - Young Adult - Jackie Lantern

Summary: Loves pumpkins and loves any recipe that is made using pumpkins. Thinks that pumpkins are her family.

Snow's thoughts:  Just the thought of pumpkins brought back happy memories for Snow. When her mother was alive, she used to make a lovely pumpkin stew and it was so good. Snow could understand why Jackie loved pumpkin so much. And, Jackie's pumpkin family sounded so wonderful. When Snow White was a little girl, she had passed a pumpkin patch during Harvestfest. She was amazed to see miles and miles of pumpkins. How happy Jackie must be to have such a large family. All those sisters and brothers, cousins, uncles and aunts. You would never be alone and always have someone to talk to. That is how Snow White felt about her woodland friends. They were like her family. And now that Snow was living here, she would have a new family. Snow did wonder, however, what had happened to Jackie's real family. Snow didn't know and there was nothing in the file about them. Well, Snow would make Jackie feel very welcome and hoped that Jackie would want Snow to be part of her family, too, even though Snow wasn't a pumpkin.

Snow placed the files on a nearby table and thought about Emilia, Shonda, and Jackie. Snow seemed to have things in common with all of them. She felt so excited about meeting them and knew that they would all become fast friends.
