Which caused a lot of fighting.

And Eliza kept spending their money on useless luxury items, also cause of lots of fighting.

In the meantime Eliza had an affair with Don... (I picked the first guy she ran into, which happened to be Don)

Eventually, Eliza's greed and selfishness sort of led to her demise, as she died from overheating in the sauna she needed so desperately.

Bob even pleaded for her life, but Grimmy said he was doing him a favour.

Bob sold the house and moved to a trailer in Oasis Springs, across the road from Johnny Zest, but he didn't leave behind Eliza's tombstone, so she kept haunting him.

In spite of all that, Bob did fall in love with the girl next door, Iris.

Which solved the Eliza issue, for a while.

Which left Eliza heartbroken (in spite of Don cheating on her with various other women...)

At this point, Bob and Iris have plans to buy themselves a nice home (funded by the massive inheritance that came from Eliza's hidden trust fund) and turn their grilled cheese shop into a restaurant. They'll leave Eliza (and Don) behind in the trailer. I'm still in the process of playing out that part, as I had to wait for Dine Out and then got distracted by other things...

That is, in a nutshell, what happened with the Pancakes in my game. You can read the full story here.

They are one of the few fam's I keep when I clean up the neighborhoods to put my own sims in. I haven't played them ever but this thread is giving me ideas.

In my current load, I have only played Bob and Eliza once. And this is waaaaayyyyy after I first started the load. So far Bob is cheating on Eliza with Summer (can't remember her last name. She's a base game Sim though XD) and Eliza is cheating on him with this elderly man. I left them alone. I want to see what happens if I invite all of them over for a party......

It might be quite interesting and funny. Keep me updated about what goes on it is pretty interesting to me. I think it's Summer Holiday you are talking about.

Wow you have done a lot with them!

Eliza and Bob own a restaurant together, but Bob refused to give up his culinary career and Eliza had to do all the work. They have a teenage daughter Erin. She is in a relationship with Benjamin Pleasant (Angela Pleasant's son). She closely resembles her mom. Anyways, because Eliza spend all her time in the restaurant and Bob would work at night she got quite lonely. One day an elderly Don Lothario walked into their little burger place and flirted with Eliza (He already had a grown-up child with Nina Caliente). They seemed to get along and Eliza had an affair with Don and got pregnant. She gave birth to her second daughter Stella. Bob was hurt, but after he saw Eliza crying, because she saw Don cheating with a maid Bob forgave Eliza and decided to raise Stella with her (Don is not a great dad to her, since he lives in a different city and barely sees her).

However, I have an unrelated question...how do you get the grilled cheese aspiration? I have never seen it, not even on townies or anybody else :neutral:

@LenaDieters11 The grilled cheese aspiration is a hidden aspiration, you have to unlock it first. The only thing you need to do is have a Sim eat three grilled cheeses in a row, then it will unlock and becomes selectable under the food aspirations. In my experience townies can spawn with this aspiration, but they'll still need to eat the three grilled cheeses in a row to properly unlock it and the related social interactions (which they need to complete the aspiration) - but you only need to be concerned with that if you actually want to play that townie.

I deleted almost all the original sims. I wanted new ones.
