The Lanes started their week off fine, but it quickly turned to tragedy. I had Brady purchase a community lot, where he built Ticket to Ride, the train enthusiast lot I mentioned earlier. He included not only model trains to play with, but a small coffee lounge area to keep customers energized and on the lot longer. By Wednesday, he'd hired two employees to work as baristas and leveled up to rank 2. That's when disaster struck. During a storm, lightning struck a tree outside, setting it ablaze. The rain then promptly stopped, leaving Brady to deal with extinguishing it. Not only did he lose enough stars to send the business back down to rank 1, he also lost his life when he caught fire and there was no one around (no one useful anyway) to put him out. I suppose I could've exited without saving, but I tend to like to roll with the punches with these sorts of things. The only time I exit without saving is to prevent the social worker from taking kids. Consequently, Maya is now the owner of Ticket to Ride, there is no heir to this household, and Emma Hastings (Brady's girlfriend) did not move in at the end of the week as planned. To top it all off, both ladies became elders on Sunday.
Career-wise, Maya only earned one promotion the entire week, though she's ready to reach the top of the Business career next week. Mckenna only spent one day running Dance With Me because she had to work the rest of the week, but she did earn several promotions, ending the week as a Dance Video Star.
I'm not sure what's going to happen with this household, as I'd resigned myself to the fact that neither woman was going to settle down. I thought Brady would take over, probably marry Emma and have some kids, and try to expand his business ventures. Time will tell.
Taxes were $7,483.00, bringing the total to $167,003.00.
