Bob’s Package & Sydney’s Boxes

In Bananas, I snapped a picture of me hiding behind a balloon present.

Rowan: You got a camera? Make sure you get a shot of me lookin' beefy when I win the tourney!I saw Bob and he had a package with Anabelle’s name on it.

Bob: Okeydokey then. I'd like you to take this to Anabelle, please.I made the delivery, and it turned out to be a No. 67 shirt. Anabelle was soooo excited about it.

Anabelle: Huh. A No. 67 shirt, eh? Well, I guess it's nice, in a perfectly, like, adequate kind of way.I tracked Bob down and gave him the news. He rewarded me with a modern screen. I was about excited as Anabelle.

Bob: Oh, that's right... To thank you, I want to give you a modern screen!I also checked in on Sydney. She’s all packed and ready to move out.

Sydney: Even though we won't be neighbors anymore, I certainly hope you won't forget me, gimme food!And before I wrapped up my day in Forest, I unsuccessfully tried to murder a mini-snowman.

Bob vs. Sydney

Today I got a letter from a snowman I built yesterday. He sent me a snowman bed. I’m not sure where he got the bed in the first place, nor do I know how he mailed it to me. He’s always talking about how he can’t move from that spot. I think he’s holding back.

Snowmaster Jeff, To thank you for, you know, making me, have a snowman bed! It'll keep you cool while you sleep. Nice, right? I know! -From the SnowmanI went around town, watering flowers. Egbert told me about the rumors that Bob and Sydney don’t like each other very much. Bob seems to get along with everybody, so if Bob doesn’t like her, he probably has a good reason. I wonder if this has something to do with Sydney moving out… Hmmm…

Egbert: Hey, have you heard the gossip about Bob and Sydney?I saw a big fish in the river, and that’s always a good thing. I fished it out and caught a stringfish. Nice!

I caught a stringfish! This is AWESOME!Then I thought I saw a frightening, grotesque creature walking in the background. But it was just Peggy.

Peggy: Walkin' time, walkin' time! Time to get all fit and stuff, roast me!I later went into Bob’s house. Is that Mr. Bean on TV?

Seeking Sunday

Being Sunday, I checked the new emotions at the theater to see if they had “agreement” or “outrage” yet. No luck.

Clerk: What show would you like to see today?While watering my flowers, Egbert approached me, wanting to play hide-and-seek. I agreed. When the following scene first showed on screen, Amelia (who is not one of the animals playing) was standing directly in front of Egbert, facing him. It looked as if she was in formation with the others, but facing the wrong way. It had me confused for a second. Unfortunately, by the time I took a picture, she had started to walk away. It’s a shame, because it would have made a good picture.

Egbert: OK, here are the rules. We'll go hide somewhere in town. But we'll definitely be outside, no yolk.I had ten minutes to find the three of them. Anabelle was the first I found, hiding behind a palm tree in the lower-right part of town (not far from town hall).

Anabelle: You must have, like, seen my big feet sticking out, you elf.Del wasn’t too far away either, hiding behind my house. I had to search for Egbert for a little bit though, but I still found him with around three minutes left on the timer. He was hiding behind the museum.

Egbert: Since you're so good, I want you to have a kiddie chair!Once I was done in Forest, I started up my Bananas town. But I didn’t play very long; I couldn’t sell fruit because Nook’s was closed for remodeling. Nook ‘n’ Go will become Nookway tomorrow.
