Biography[]

Agnes returns in The Sims 4: Cottage Living. She resides in Henford-on-Bagley, where she and her cousin, Agatha, own a small garden produce stall in the village square. At the start of a new save, Sara and Simon Scott, two Henford-on-Bagley residents, have sentiments about her.^[1]

Agnes' default emotion is angry instead of fine. She has a hidden moodlet "I'm Always Angry" with a +2 angry buff and with a description of "That's my secret." She loses this moodlet and her NPC behavior if she's added to the family, but inserting the cheat code "traits.equip_trait trait_Hidden_CottageWorld_NPC_AgnesCrumplebottom" will make her temporarily act like her old self. Like in The Sims: Hot Date, whenever Sims act romantically near her or towards her, she beats them with her purse. She can often be seen cross-stitching when she's not running the garden shop. This is part of an idle animation, and she does not create any pieces of cross-stitch in her inventory. If a burglary happens while Agnes is on the current lot, she will fight the burglar.

If the player's Sim has a good relationship with Agnes and they do a "Henford Heart to Heart" with her, she might reveal that she's related to the Goth family, as well as talk about her past relationships with Robert Crumplebottom and Erik Darling.

With The Sims 4: Growing Together, Sims receive the "Crumplebottomed!" milestone the first time Agnes hits them with her purse. Kyle Kyleson has this milestone, hinting that he previously had an encounter with her.

If The Sims 4: Lovestruck is installed, Agnes will never appear on the Cupid's Corner dating app, but Agatha's profile might show up depending on the active Sim's settings.

Quotes[]

Are you trying to get fresh with me, young man/lady? Take that cheek somewhere else!
I have let certain men into my life in the past - Robert, Erik - but nothing good came of it. I spend my time with Agatha and my plants nowadays and that's enough for me.
The NERVE of some people! Public displays of affection in MY town is not something I tolerate. You'd best behave yourself around here if you don't want to get on my bad side!
Oh my dear, have you been getting into that biscuit jar again? You know those will go straight to your hips.
Well, since I don't absolutely despise you, I'll let you in on a secret... I'm not actually from Finchwick. Have you ever heard of the Goths?
You want to hear a real secret? I find you distasteful! Ha.

Biography[]

The young and unfortunate Agnes makes an appearance in The Sims 3. She resides in Sunset Valley in a very modern house. Her young husband, Erik Darling, is deceased. Agnes bears some resemblance to a World War II widow: her blonde hair is cut into Bettie Bangs, and her outfit, a short trench dress and Oxford shoes that sport stiletto heels, matches the Western fashion trends of the 1940s.

She is good friends with her sister, Cornelia Goth, even though she barely knows Cornelia's husband, Gunther, or son Mortimer. She is much younger than her sister, as they have a difference of 20 days. Cornelia is an adult nearing elderhood, and Agnes is a young adult nearing adulthood.

Agnes' bio states that she married Erik, but didn't take his last name because he drowned on their honeymoon. His death left her bitter and lonely, though some players like to resurrect Erik with ambrosia or the "Oh My Ghost" opportunity. And since his ghost haunts their house, he scares away any possible suitors for Agnes. There is a partially finished nursery in her house, which includes a crib, a teddy bear, and a giraffe picture, possibly indicating that she and Erik were planning to have a baby.

Agnes starts with notable skill levels of 6 in cooking, and she is close to mastering painting, having 8 points in it. In her inventory, she carries the novel Special Snowflake. She will often have the wish to join the Medical career, because of her bookworm trait. When Sunset Valley is first played, Agnes is 6 days away from becoming an adult.

Biography[]

Agnes is deceased in The Sims 2 and buried in the Goth graveyard. At the time of her death, she dressed in a more relaxed manner, coincidentally wearing the same dress her sister Cornelia Goth did. Although it would appear that the old prude's reign of terror finally ended when she was laid to rest, the position was picked up by Mrs. CrumpleBottom, a distant relative,^[2] who dresses and carries herself near identically to how Agnes did as "Miss Crumplebottom".

She bears a small resemblance to Veronaville's Julia Pantalone, as she has the same unused hairstyle and black widow dress as her. According to SimPE, her hair was black before it turned gray, meaning that she may have dyed her hair blonde in The Sims 3. According to her age data, Agnes had 14 days left in the elder life stage when she died.

Strangely, if Agnes is extracted with SimPE to Body Shop and the player switches her gender to male using Body Shop or Create a Sim, she will have a moustache, implying that she was created in Create a Sim, and that her gender was switched to male at some point before her creation was confirmed. This is also the case of Gretle Goth.

Resurrection tip

This Sim can be resurrected with the Tombstone of Life and Death.

Biography[]

It has been revealed that Agnes is the "Miss Crumplebottom" in The Sims: Hot Date, and although many players think so, she is not the Mrs. CrumpleBottom in The Sims 2: Nightlife.^[3] Her facial features are similar, such as the crooked nose, the eyes, and the lips.

By this time in her life, Agnes' emotional pain from her husband's death had caught up to her, and she had transformed into the dreaded Miss Crumplebottom. Because of her distaste for romance, she has become a very old-fashioned, stern, and strict woman who appears to abide by a moral code from the Victorian Era. For example, she detests when two Sims have any romantic interactions in public. When she sees any of these actions taking place on a community lot, she will promptly scold the Sims, smack them, or beat them with her purse.

Whenever Agnes enters a community lot, she doesn't just sit around waiting to smack someone. Agnes usually plays chess, but if someone joins her, she will sometimes leave. Other activities include dancing on the dance floor, ordering ice cream, nagging people, looking around the room, resting her head on a recliner, and playing the piano. If The Sims: Unleashed is installed, Agnes will usually interact with the non-playable animals, such as iguanas and birds.

As an NPC, she is very glitchy. Contradicting her hatred of romance, she sometimes dates other neighborhood Sims and townies. She also washes her hands unusually, due to the fact that she always holds her purse. Like other NPCs from Hot Date, she has a different skin when she is nude, looking like a fit medium-skinned male.

Agnes wears a long, straight dress with a button-up overcoat, along with tight shoes, pearl earrings, a pearl necklace, a pillbox hat with a small flower-patterned pin, a tight bun, and her large, dark purse. Her dress is gray (unlike Mrs. CrumpleBottom's dress, which is tan/cream). Her hair is gray and is always tied in a very tight bun.

The Official Prima Strategy Guide states that Miss Crumplebottom was the widow of famed philanthropist and puppeteer Robert Crumplebottom:

"Old Mrs. Crumplebottom is the widow of famed philanthropist and puppeteer Robert Crumplebottom. She spends her twilight years roaming the streets and shops of downtown, complaining about newfangled ways and loudly protesting the conduct of the latest generation of Sims. Nothing gets her goat faster than a public display of affection, her radar spots a kiss a mile away. If your Sims are getting fresh anywhere near the Old Prude, expect a thrashing from her purse in short order!"

It appears Robert was indeed Agnes' next husband, even though Erik's ghost was scaring away her potential new partners in The Sims 3, but the new relationship also ended in an unfortunate accident when a chandelier dropped and landed on Robert, according to the description for the "Crumplebottom Chandelier" from The Sims: Vacation. Due to this, the death of not only one, but two husbands could lead to the transformation of Agnes into Miss Crumplebottom. Contrary to how she planned to take Erik's surname after marrying him, it was Robert who took her surname, as it was revealed in later games that she's a descendant of the Crumplebottom family.

Trivia[]

Agnes, along with Mortimer Goth, Bella Goth, Bob Newbie, Betty Newbie, Daniel Pleasant, and the Grim Reaper are the only pre-made characters to appear in all four games of the main series.
- She is also one of the only two pre-made characters who was an NPC in at least one or more games to appear in all four games of the main series along with the Grim Reaper, as well as one of only four NPCs along with the Grim Reaper, Bonehilda, and the Tragic Clown from The Sims and its expansion packs to make an appearance in any of the sequels to The Sims.
In The Sims 2, while Agnes does not have a deformed facial structure when resurrected, she does have one as a ghost.
The original idea for Agnes, could be Frieda Claxton, a one-time episode character from the sitcom The Golden Girls. Both are quite grouchy, hate people, are widowed, and are physically very similar. Also, they wear similar outfits and carry a black purse.
- Additionally, there is a reference in the Crumplebottom Prune Tree saying it's lacking care, since Freida said she hates trees.
The version of Agnes in The Sims 3 bears a striking resemblance to the actress Barbara Stanwyck in the movie Double Indemnity.
In The Sims 3, she has the same favorites as Simis Bachelor.
When starting a game, Agnes will be sad if she has no moodlets, due to her grumpy trait. This may be interpreted as her husband's death still being fresh in her mind.
In Barnacle Bay, there is a Sim who parodies her, named Agnes Seabottom. They share the loner trait, a preference for classical music, and some of their appearances.
In one of the teaser trailers for The Sims 4: Get Together, Agnes' name is shown, indicating that she "liked" the video, albeit her first name is misspelt as "Agnus".^[4]
In Cottage Living, Agnes has the secret moodlet "I'm Always Angry" with the description of "That's my secret", this is a reference to a line in which Bruce Banner says before turning into the Hulk in Marvel's The Avengers film.
While she isn't a character in the game, players can recreate Agnes in the original MySims using her hair and clothes found in the costume chest.
When Agnes hits a Sim with her purse in The Sims 4, the action is named "Scold".
The description of a decoration object in The Sims 4: Home Chef Hustle Stuff reveals that Agnes believes the correct method for preparing a scone is jam first, and then cream.
With the use of mods, the player can make an NPC Sim try to flirt with Agnes, which will result in Agnes whacking that Sim.
In The Sims 4, Agnes uses the Snooty walk style. However, this is rare to see because she is almost always feeling angry, which makes her stomp around in anger instead.
