Challenge 2: So Long, and Thanks for all the Wishes

Day 3 brings us another challenge.

Today, our sim-testants will each make a wish at this wishing well. If their wish is granted successfully, they're safe from elimination. If their wish backfires, they risk elimination in the next vote.

First up, Dela will hopefully wish for plastic surgery.
Dela: "I'm going to wish for a promotion instead."

"It turns out you can't. Sims with certain jobs, like the Stylist and Acting career, can't wish for promotions at the well. Oh well."

"Is it working?!"

"Aww, yeah, babies! I can feel the years rolling off my body."

"In retrospect, I should have wished to win this game... I didn't waste my wish, did I? "
https://i.imgur.com/a1EIrGu.png
Vlad: "She wasted her wish."

Don: "Alright, time for the Donster to get his groove on."

Crumplebottom: "Not on my watch, you degenerate! Out of my way!"
https://i.imgur.com/YwipbI5.png
Don: "Geez, lady! What's your plum problem?!"
https://i.imgur.com/N76lsAF.png
"The pretty ones always think they can get away with being rude."
https://i.imgur.com/IZypHXZ.png
Crumplebottom: "I'm forking over a perfectly good Simoleon, you decrepit lawn decoration. Give me my youth or give me your life."

Success! Mrs. Crumplebottom is now at the beginning of her life stage. She's officially two days younger.
https://i.imgur.com/wKvRKD6.png
Crumplebottom: "Great. Two more days of living on this wretched planet."
But you wished for youth.
https://i.imgur.com/dWDNmbT.png
Crumplebottom: "So? Doesn't mean I want it."

Next up is Bella. I wonder what she's wishing for?
Bella: "I wish for all my children, past and present, to grow up well."
https://i.imgur.com/TpFJX53.png
"I actually wished for a rich trophy husband. He can make sure the kids grow up well."
https://i.imgur.com/WcGGglz.png
https://i.imgur.com/NaAWcQy.png
The wishing well glows orange, and green and black smoke wrap around Bella. And...
...
nothing happens.
https://i.imgur.com/ZKOldxH.png
Bella: "I'm not dead! I'm not old! The only way to find out if my wish did or didn't come true is if we wait several days. Therefore, I didn't technically lose! At least not yet!"

Don's turn.
Don: "I wish for the bangin'-est babe in the Earth."
https://i.imgur.com/s4sYe0D.png
Well, this can't be good.

Whomp-Whomp. Don got one of the worst outcomes the wishing well can provide: a ghost bride. Sorry, Don. Enjoy your new girlfriend, Ayaka. Enjoy your loss, too.
https://i.imgur.com/O9Wcio4.png
Don: "What are you talking about?"
https://i.imgur.com/VzR8Hu2.png
"She's fiiiine."
https://i.imgur.com/5Y3zbwO.png
Pedro's turn. He had to be provided his own Simoleon, as he had none of his own. To be specific, we gave him two: the first one, he stuffed into his suit and refused to give it back.
https://i.imgur.com/DB4FLTA.png
https://i.imgur.com/281jQfv.png
I don't know what he wished for, or why he's shivering. But judging from the wishing well's light, it seems to have been a successful wish.
https://i.imgur.com/OUjxyAJ.png
Dela: "I have no idea how to read that bear. So I started writing down everything he does to try and find a pattern in his behavior. Maybe then, I can decipher the enigma that is Pedro Bear."
https://i.imgur.com/tjSYBAb.png
Last but not least, Dummy.
https://i.imgur.com/cCwpE21.png
Dummy: "I wish for Dela to die, or for me to have a body that will make me happy. Either or."
https://i.imgur.com/agISbUN.png
https://i.imgur.com/9UC1ltU.png
"Uh oh."
https://i.imgur.com/jrxiv8f.png
"I'm a ghost now!"
That's unfortunate, Miss Thicc. The good news is that we can reverse it. The bad news is, you're up for elimination.
https://i.imgur.com/ZXqJAiP.png
Dummy: "Reverse it? Are you kidding me? I'm lighter than I've ever been, I can float through walls, and I scared Dela so hard that she plummed her pants!"
https://i.imgur.com/AnSOWgu.png
Unfortunately, ghosts can't have kids in the Sims 4. You won't be able to start a family without first becoming a normal sim.
Dummy: "Oh..."
https://i.imgur.com/HKpc1Jk.png
"You know what? I have a literal eternity become a normal again. I don't need a family right this second. Screw you guys, I'm out of here."

Since Dummy willfully left the competition, we don't have any losers this time around. And I can say this with confidence because Don seems to have gotten his wish after all.
Since Dummy was eliminated and there are no losers this round (sort of), there will be another challenge round to decide the winners and losers. The losers of that round will be up for elimination, and it will be up to you guys to decide who will go home.
Next time: Fighting dreamers.
