Hollywood Challenge 12/31/18

Faith Pederson reached retirement age this round, which cuts her income by 2/3.  That sucks for them because also this round Kaitlyn left for college and now her parents have that debt to pay off via Faith's pension and barista income.  It's going to be brutal.  Sydney Drake had the day off, but did her personal training and called a friend to chat, who told her she'd definitely be getting a promotion next time she works.  Cool!  Her "wife" Andrea got promoted and made a new friend, bringing them ever closer to leveling up to 2*.  Jocelyn Silver got a promotion, met her celeb hour requirement, and got home in time to watch Grey grow into a toddler.  Dante has become more or less a stay-at-home dad since he doesn't have a regular job, but luckily he's a better father than he is a husband.  The only requirement left for them to meet is the money requirement.  Nolan and Savannah Pederson had a quiet day, bartending in the afternoon, then Nolan went to work.  Typical newlyweds, right?  Rachel Burke and her boyfriend Drake both went to work (she got promoted, he didn't but will soon) and Drake brought home Jocelyn Silver.  At one point, Drake went up to the roof where some of the other residents were hanging out.  I was watching Rachel and didn't see what happened, but I did hear the "boing" of someone getting caught cheating.  I paused and went to check out the roof, but couldn't tell what had happened, however Jocelyn, Dante, and Savannah were all on the roof (don't know why Dante was there?) and Dante and Savannah were dancing, while Drake and Jocelyn chatted.  Since Savannah didn't seem mad, I'm guessing that it was Jocelyn who caught Dante and Savannah together.  Bad news for Dante!  So I went to check and, sure enough, Dante cheated, so I had them split up.  Dante moved out to a new apartment and Jocelyn stayed in the current apartment and (based on the 4 point scale to determine custody) retained custody of Grey.  Caryl Karr actually made $300 while freestyling, so that was good for her.  Later I had her invite one of her moms' neighbors over, since she doesn't have many friends, and they hung out for a while (making friends, yay!) before Caryl decided to go to bed.  She also got a call from the cow mascot and befriended him, so now she has a grand total of 4 friends.  Brandi and Elise Karr both reached retirement age this round, but other than that nothing to note.  Samantha Sanders finished another cookbook, netting over $3000, while Justyn continued trying to earn that gold cosmetology badge he's been working on.  Lexie Burke retired from her job, but immediately took an elder job.  Nicholas did yoga hours and then went to his elder job and Michael asked Brooke Sanders to go steady.  Happy New Year!
