[shoobysims]

Cotton: So what's up? You aren't carting around a lost sock, right? I mean we were totally safe. Riley: What? No, silly. I just wanted to see if you were up for a repeat performance later. (Riley Morlind in search of one lost sock and legacy admission)

Please Spare Me: An SBL Gen 6 Short

As soon as Noel aged into a YA, the Watcher set in motion her plan to hook him up with Johnny Wants a Wife former contestant, Riley Morlind. And yes, the Watcher did squeal like a fan girl when she saw how adorable the two were.

Deciding to get two things done at once, she set Riley and Noel on a double date with Raquel and Echo. ( Raquel confessed her love to Adrian after they first woohooed and he wasn’t happy about that so the Watcher took that as a sign it wasn’t meant to be)

Even though Noel was into Riley, Riley wasn’t really attracted to him, so sadly they decided to just be friends. However, Raquel and Echo were shooting off sparks.

It was a whirlwind romance.

They just hooked up in the bathroom, when this popped up.

Raquel: How dare you propose to me knowing you had a baby on the way? And on top of that, this Maddison is considered your soulmate?!

Echo: athe baby is a surprise to me as much as it is to you—“

Raquel: Still, you had a soulmate, yet you were going to marry me? I don’t want to be second best or a step-mother. We’re through.

And out of all people, Raquel’s previous hook up shows up in the bathroomof the Skye Lounge of all places.

Adrian: Hey, Raquel funny running into you here.

Raquel: Oh my Watcher, Adrian. I just broke up with my fiance. Let me tell you about it. I need comforting. That’s him over there, but don’t worry about it…

Rhiannon: Wow. I thought you were a loner.

Raquel: Me too. I didn’t expect Neighborhood Stories to throw me that sort of drama. I’m just a spare!

(Note: Echo Castillo is a sim by @cowplant-snacks and Riley Morlind is by @surely-sims and appeared in @simmingnate Johnny Wants a Wife

Adrian Quinn is by @glovely1simmer )

[simmingnate]

"I have made my decision… the person I am sending home, despite my wild and confusing attraction to them… is Kitty. I wish I could say I was sorry, but you did this to yourself. I wish you… mostly the best."

"Oof! I did not like that! Being so close to going home? Being summoned to the beach? No thank you! Never again! I've learned my lesson - no more gossiping! Unless it's really, super-duper important!"

"HA! Seeing Pussy be sent home was DELICIOUS! Just call me Tits Thee Eliminator! I can take them all on, any of them! One look at me and Johnny is putty in my cleavage. Tits is here for a good time, AND a long time! Get used to this face! …which is up here, by the way."

"GONE! FINISHED! MY ONE CHANCE AT JOINING THE LANDGRAAB FAMILY! Not only have I lost a lover… I've also lost a son."

"Well I know one Kitty who didn't get the cream! Another broken heart here at the Johnny Wants a Wife mansion, as we say au-revoir to Kitty and thank @tedsies for gracing us with this truly crazy cat lady!

We’ll see you next time on #JWAW! This is Matt Rimony, signing off!”

[simmingnate]

Thanks for watching the first episode of #JohnnyWantsAWife!

Aliyah, Haven and Lydia will be missed - but there are still plenty more fascinating ladies for Johnny to choose from! Until next time… 💘

[simmingnate]

And finally, another question from @Macy_Skyz …

"What romantic gesture do you want?"

Liz: Oh, nothing would mean more to me than if someone wrote be a beautiful poem. Writing is such a personal act, the sharing of thoughts and words… oh, I'd jut melt!

"Well aside from the obvious things a guy can do that show he's decent, committed, and mature… you can never go wrong with a nice bit of jewellery! As I said, I don't like the term 'best friend', but diamonds and I sure do get along great."

"Nothing is more romantic to me than loyalty. Knowing someone is there for you 100% is the best feeling in the world! I know Johnny would be able to give me that. And really, that's all I'd ever need from him."

"A right good WooHooing! Are you kidding me?! That's the ONLY answer! Any of these girls saying anything different are LYING to you - and to themselves! Get me a guy who knows what to do with his hands, and that's ALL the 'romantic gesturing' this gal needs!"

[simmingnate]

It’s time to wrap this up!

We are back on the Beach of Destiny, with me, Matt Rimony, for the next #JWAW elimination!

Let’s speak to Johnny and find out how he’s feeling about today’s chaotic comedy caper…

“Well, Johnny, that was quite an eventful evening!”

“It sure was, Matt. There were some great jokes, some lame jokes, some violence… and some kisses! I’m just glad I got the kisses this time, rather than the violence.”

“Come on, make you ol’ friend Matt happy and tell me… who are your bottom three ladies tonight?”

“It was another tough one, Matt, but I have decided my bottom three tonight are… Kitty, Meghan, and Dahlia.”

[simmingnate]

Our next question comes from @ginovasims …

"What can Johnny offer YOU?"

Aubrey: "I'm guilty of taking things a little too seriously, and I think Johnny could bring some levity into my life. I need to laugh more! I want to live life with more abandon! Well, not too much…"

"Aside from all the obvious things - happiness, love, partnership, support, a family, a sense of self worth… if we double-barrelled our names, it would be really cute! The Lemon-Zests! I can imagine the Christmas cards addressed to us already…"

"I'm hoping Johnny can offer me some stability. Mental stability, that is… I've been told I'm lacking in that area!"

Next up is a question from @ice-creamforbreakfast, just for Liz!

"Do you sleep with one eye open since ratting out Tits?"

"I… I don't think she knows it was me… does she? Should I be worried? I didn't think I had to be worried… oh no… oh no… ohnoohnoohno…"

[simmingnate]

“This has been a difficult decision to make, but I’ve come to a conclusion. After a lot of thought, I have decided, the person I’m sending home today is…”

“WAIT!!!!!”

“I know it’s going to be me! I know soiling myself is the biggest crime, worse than violence and rudeness and meanness, so I’ll save you the trouble! Because this is all nonsense - and you, Johnny Zest, you are a pathetic little man who doesn’t even know what he wants!”

“Think about it, Johnny - think about the women you’ve sent home, and compare them to the ones you have left (not you, Meghan) - ones that fight and talk trash, and even slap YOU! And you’re happy with yourself? You’re pleased with your decisions so far? REALLY?”

“This show is supposedly Johnny Wants a WIFE - not Johnny Wants a Half-Rate Handjob Behind A Dumpster!”

“Dahlia, wait, I…”

“Put a sock in it, Zesty. I’m outta here! Good luck with finding that ‘wife’ you speak of!”

And with that, Dahlia storms off the Beach of Destiny - eliminating herself from the competition! Now that’s a first!

Johnny, Meghan and Kitty look on in shock… nobody saw this coming! Not even me, your host, Matt Rimony!

“I’ve had enough of all this BLEEP! Johnny wants to keep Kitty and Tits around while getting rid of people like Aliyah, Haven, Margo and ME?? He’s not the man for me - and I am CERTAINLY not the woman for him!”

“Did aliens take over Dahlia’s body?? Because all of that looked very familiar to me… anyway, I’m just glad I get to stay in this realm for a while longer!”

“Well this Kitty sure got the cream! Some extra time with Johnny on the beach, being privy to a dramatic pop culture reality TV moment, AND not being eliminated? I’m going to bed VERY happy tonight.”

“Well, I was going to send Meghan home, but that makes me think - was Dahlia right? Have I been prioritising the wrong things? I need to get serious, because I do want true love, not just another crazy sexy fling. Have I been going about this all wrong?”

“What a night of twists and turns! Another broken heart here at the Johnny Wants a Wife mansion, but I’m not sure it’s Dahlia’s! Goodbye, Dahlia, and thank you @SimmerBrooklyn for creating this iconic diva!

We’ll see you next time on #JWAW! This is Matt Rimony, signing off!”

[simmingnate]

"That was not good. In any way. She should never do any of that ever again. I hope Johnny isn't too upset by what she said - I'm sure there wasn't any truth in any of it! Johnny seems very… well-formed…?”

"DAMN! This bitch is totes crazy! I thought she was just a bitch, but she's a CERTIFIED CRAZY BITCH! Now we know why her boobs are so big - they're full of CRAZY!”

"That was a humiliating experience for me, and I imagine all of the women, including Tits. By the way - what she said wasn't true! None of it! Women usually fancy me LESS after they see me perform… and as for the ahem size thing… he’s used to applause, not laughter."

While Tits grabs another refreshing Champs Les Sims Distillery™️ drink, Dahlia takes to the stage…

"Firstly I'd like to give a big thank you to our friend Tits. Yes, I bought a couple of watermelons at the market earlier, and she's been carrying them around for me all night!"

"Now THAT's comedy!"

"I didn't care for Dahlia's so-called 'jokes'. There's nothing funny about being needlessly mean."

[simmingnate]

Ebele joined Aubrey in the flirtathon with Johnny (as was their plan), and he was beyond pleased with himself as a result.

"I gotta say, I feel like QUITE the Don Lothario right now! And I'm talking Pleasantview-era Don!"

But what goes up… must droop down!

Kitty had had enough of Johnny flirting unashamedly with Aubrey and Ebele - especially after their tender moment earlier. She storms up to the amorous trio and shows Johnny JUST what she thinks of all this malarkey!

Pow! Right in the kisser!

"Johnny thinks he can callously parade his other women in front of me like this? No, sir! Kitty's no fool - I understand the game, but he needs to know that I will not be treated this way. Not now, and certainly not in our future as mother and so- I mean… husband and wife."

The rest of the contestants looked on in shock, as they witnessed their first physical altercation of the season 🥳

“I didn't know whether I should call the police or an ambulance! They probably heard that slap back home in Henford!"

"I'm just relieved I'm not the first to be physically assaulted - it was looking pretty likely earlier today!"

"OK guys - be honest with me - is it wrong that I was kinda into being slapped by Kitty? Oooh, I've been a baaaad wittle boy…”

[simmingnate]

Kitty found Johnny recovering from singeing a couple of his chest hairs, and knew this was her moment.

She told him how much she loved watching him perform, and how brave and talented he is! A comedian and a dancer? His mother must be proud 😉

Johnny loved all this fuss 💕

They share a hug as the sun sets, and Johnny tells Kitty how much her words mean to him.

"Maybe Kitty's resemblance to my mother is what really made her compliments feel good, but she's also really hot, so I continue to be very confused, if very much attracted to her."

Kitty also enjoys their hug, and has victory on her mind.

"Oh, I've got this boy wrapped around mama's little finger! I can practically taste the trophy! And it tastes like MONEY! …and also kind of salty.”

As Johnny and Kitty separate from their embrace, Ebele walks past at just the right moment to set off alarm bells.

"Kitty? Really? Oh, Johnny… I can't say I'm surprised, but I can say I'm disappointed. Are you basic after all?"

[simmingnate]

"I knew exactly what Liz was about to tell Johnny, and I was happy she was doing it! I was proud of her! We were all disturbed by what had happened… it just wouldn't be right for Johnny to go on without knowing the truth!"

“I really hope I'm doing the right thing by telling Johnny about what was said… this probably won't come back to haunt me further down the line… right?"

Liz spills the beans!

"After the elimination last night, a few of us were talking, and Letitia said she thinks you're only doing this for the fame, not true love, but that she didn't mind, because she's only here for fame too!'

Johnny was shocked! But was it true…?

🫣UNSEEN FOOTAGE🫣

"I'm not surprised Johnny found it so easy to send all three of those girls home - he's here for fame, not love! And honestly? So am I."

//

"We have to tell Johnny what she said! She has no right to be here when the rest of us are truly looking for love!"

"What Liz told me really made me sad. Well, it did once I realised who Letitia was. I felt such a strong connection last night between me and Tits - was I wrong about her? Was I wrong to do this whole show? I've been misled by curvy women in the past… I needed time to think."

[simmingnate]

✨ A VERY JWAW JOURNEY ✨

Thank you for watching Johnny Wants A Wife! I can't fully articulate how much it means to me that you all took part and enjoyed it, but I promise you it means something close to 'the world'.

Now let's relive those best bits!

[simmingnate]

✨ Some hours later… ✨

Johnny: Hello, Wife! We did it! We're really married!

Penelope: I know! I can't believe it! I'm so happy, and it was the perfect day… but I have to admit, I'm not really sure what to do now…

Johnny: Well, we have the whole mansion to ourselves for the rest of the night, and I've still got the grass skirt Matt lent me… how about we get started on that big family we both want?

Penelope: Sounds like a perfect plan… as long as you're the one wearing the skirt.

And they lived happilee ever after!

💘 THE END 💘

[simmingnate]

From the vows, to the cake!

The wedding party moves rather impressively as a group to the reception area, where Johnny and Penelope slice a big wedge out of their Sulani-themed cake. Then everyone eats the cake, because there isn't much else meaningful to do.

Time for a toast!

"I may be a stand-up, but the idea of giving a toast at my own wedding filled me with dread. I said all I needed to say in my vows - Penelope, I love you, and to all our guests, thank you for coming and following your commands relatively well…"

"…and now, I'd like to hand over to a great friend of mine for his toast - the inimitable (unless you download him from the gallery) Matt Rimony!"

"Thank you, Johnny, and I want you to know - you're not only a friend to me, but also a former colleague, and I really mean that."

"I'd like to raise a glass to everyone who was involved in JWAW - you know who you are! Our ladies, our watchers, our viewers, our cameo Sims, our custom wedding dress designers - everyone! You made this experience what it was… and what it was, was magnificent! Thank you!"

"I'd also like to say a very special thank you… and a well-earned 'well done'… to me! Your host! Matt Rimony! This was a blast from start to finish, but damn, you all were a lot to handle. I almost had several nervous breakdowns, but looking back, it was worth it. All of it."

"Now let's break free of the constraints of this MWS nonsense and really PARTY! I'm talking about partying like it's 2001 and The Sims: House Party has just been released! Shots are on the house!

HERE'S TO JOHNNY WANTS A WIFE! Now let's get crazy nasty!!!"
