60.06-Homophonic

Last time on the Smole, Lewis-Charlie had to teach a class of eight freshmen about the world with the help of Kara, Maru, Trenton, Kearney and new shadow Luis. The freshmen, a class of seniors, and the remaining contestants had to take an exam. In the end, the ladies' efforts were not needed as the freshmen managed to score higher than the seniors on average, earning 100/100 points and bringing the pot to -27/150 points. The happiness will stop for somebody though. Who will leave the game next?

Lewis-Charlie: "Francisca, I have to ask you something. Are you a princess?"

Francisca: "No you must be mistaken."

Lewis-Charlie: "I had to teach about the royal Vanderburg family in Hidden Springs and your picture was there. You didn't even change your name."

Francisca: "Please keep it a secret for me. I don't want anyone knowing."

Lewis-Charlie: "Why not?"

Francisca: "The truth is...I ran away from home. My mother was being overbearing and pressuring me to marry, but I didn't want any of that."

Lewis-Charlie: "What did you want?"

Francisca: "I want to write books, travel the world and meet new Sims. I want to be treated normally."

Lewis-Charlie: "If you ran away, then going on international television isn't going to help with that."

Francisca: "It was my chance to do what I wanted. I was worried they were getting close to finding me too. I'll be gone again by the time this airs."

Maru: "This is going to be your bed right there. You're bunking with Kearney in the bottom bunk. You guys will be bunk buddies!"

Luis: "It's...cozy. At least I'll have company."

Maru: "Did you know that frogs can turn gay?"

Luis: "What the hell? I'm not gay if you're implying anything."

Luis: "I wonder what there is to do around here."

Maru: "I like talking to Mitch. Say hi to Mitch!"

Luis: "What?"

Maru: "Mitch says some of the others like to study or exercise. Like Gino."

Luis: "I was hoping for something less mentally or physically straining."

Maru: "How about socialisation?"

Luis: "That's an idea I can get behind."

Luis: "Tell me: you got a girlfriend?"

Maru: "Why would I want one?"

Luis: "Why wouldn't you? Every man needs to start his own family sooner or later."

Maru: "Not me. I like being alone. In fact, I'll actively go out of my way to be alone, even if that means destroying relationships."

Luis: "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Maru: "It's what Mitch and I want. We only need each other anyway."

Kara: "I'm so excited! I thought I lost my chance when Gino left but now I can exchange skills with the master himself: Luis Toledo!"

Virginia: "Endless droll, a vast supply of it on the institutional bookshelves—how it tires the mind! Such poor work should never have reached my eyes."

Angelica: "I hear you. I'm not an avid reader."

Virginia: "You disgust me with your ignorance."

Angelica: "Can you paint or play soccer or win the crowd over?"

Virginia: "Why should I stoop to such crude masculine displays as sport? In addition, I’ve no need to win over peasants, after all."

Angelica: "Don't you want to learn a new skill or two? Like learning an instrument?"

Virginia: "Whatever for? I am perfectly content with my lot."

Angelica: "But then you'll just be a frog in the well. Sims are meant to explore the world."

Virginia: "I am no frog in the well; I simply know what to demand and what to relinquish. It disappoints me that your views are so polarised."

Angelica: "Whatever you say Virginia."

Virginia: "What is this horrid metal?"

Kara: "I was thinking about what you said at school. I thought Maru and I would vibe but we just don't, so I might end that coalition and form a secret one with you."

Trenton: "Secret? Why does it have to be a secret?"

Kara: "Well, about that, you see I think we can do better if no one knows we are working together. After all, you're with Lewis."

Trenton: "We should merge our coalitions into one mega coalition."

Kara: "That's too risky."

Trenton: "You think that Lewis is the Mole? Or do you think one of your own coalition mates is the Mole? I know you're working with Darleen too."

Kara: "It pays to be more careful."

Trenton: "That doesn't sound like you."

Kara: "Fine. It's because I have a bingo square requiring me to have a secret coalition."

Trenton: "I see. How about this: we start out secret but later merge the coalitions."

Kara: "Do you also have a bingo square requiring you to merge coalitions?"

Trenton: "We help each other."

Darleen: "Is everyone in Dragon Valley an elf?"

Kearney: "Not all. There are normal mortals as well. And of course dragons."

Darleen: "Ooh, dragons! They must be formidable."

Kearney: "Ha! Those baby lizards are no match against me. I've slain thousands of dragonlings."

Darleen: "Why would you kill innocent baby dragons?"

Kearney: "Innocent? Don't let their small stature fool you, missus. It's like keeping a wild dog as a pet. Sure, you may tame them now, but they are ultimately feral creatures. Their instincts may take over at any time."

Darleen: "Oh dear."

Kearney: "Not to fear for I am here."

Darleen: "I'm so glad there are no dragons in Lucky Palms."

Kearney: "What is it like in Lucky Palms?"

Darleen: "Hot. And arid. There are man-made pipes to transport water from neighbouring towns. But at least it's safe in the sense that I don't have to worry about dragons."

Kearney: "Surely there must be some danger present. You'll need a knight!"

Darleen: "All I need is a man with a guitar."

Kearney: "So, a bard?"

Darleen: "An artist."

"Contestants, welcome to another night of execution. We have specifically explained the rules to the shadows already, so let's get started."

"Let's see if our newest addition will survive one night. Luis Toledo."

Kearney: "Luis made mistakes that only I caught, like getting the order of geological events wrong. If he thinks he can use 'foolish old man' as an excuse, think again."

Luis: "Green means I am safe right? Grazie."

"Next, the homophonic Lewis-Charlie."

Trenton: "Lewis thought the questions would be those blanks that had to be filled in. That would be way too easy."

Lewis-Charlie: "Argh! Too bright. But phew I'm safe again."

"Kara Carter."

Luis: "It felt like Kara was running around a lot but not actually having much contribution."

Kara: "Hyeh hyeh hyeh. Not going anywhere tonight baby!"

"Angelica Diamond."

Darleen: "Angelica's exam score is the most surprising. She scored the lowest, only 3/20."

"Unfortunately, Angelica Diamond, you are the next to be executed. Please pack your bags and leave."

Kearney: "I found Angelica a worthy foe. I gained respect for her after the first mission."

*

Angelica: "I just need to hang on a little while longer."

*

*

*

Angelica: "My mistake may have been struggling to find a balance between making full use of the advantages this season versus the normal gameplay."

*

*

*

Darleen: "Angelica was the best golfer in the second mission. She helped us retrieve so many questions quickly."

*

*

*

Darleen: "You did it, Angelica!"

*

*

*

Angelica: "I found the first mission the most memorable because it was the first mission of the Smole, unbothered by the rain and watching the faces of everyone who thought I was an easy target to eliminate. I'm excited for what's in store for me next."

*

*

*

Francisca: "Angelica immersed herself in missions but never let it consume her. She never neglected the meta game."

*

*

*

Angelica: "We'll quiz each other so that we don't forget."

*

*

*

"Thank you for joining, Angelica. We hope to see you again."
