Ethel (GrB)

is a character in Harvest Moon DS: Grand Bazaar.
Ethel and her husband Stuart own and run the Zephyr hotel together. She is usually found behind the counter, or in her room early in the morning. Their maid Daisy is like a granddaughter to the elderly couple. 
If the player plans on marrying Daisy, both Ethel and Stuart will both need to be befriended to 4 hearts. Amir's purple heart event also requires both Ethel and Stuart to be at 10,000FP (1 heart). 
Ethel and Stuart have an adult son who has moved away from Zephyr Town. He doesn't come back to visit often which often makes both Ethel and Stuart sad, although having Daisy around helps lift their spirits. The couple has lived in Zephyr Town their whole lives, and Ethel is close friends with Joan. 
Stuart and Ethel will also give you the Blue Feather required for marriage for free! The couple will stop by your house after you get a marriage candidate to an orange heart and you are in your second year or later.

A Way With Women
On a sunny Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday go to the cafe in between 10am and noon. Angelo must be at 40,000FP (5 hearts) or more. 
A very hungry Angelo has just walked into the cafe. Joan goes to prepare him a dish of omelet rice. Claire comes into the cafe while Angelo is waiting and decides that she will get the same thing that he ordered.
Shortly after Claire's arrival, Nellie arrives. She too decides that she will have whatever Angelo is having! Ethel sees the gathering of women at the cafe and decides to join in. She's naturally curious as to why Angelo is surrounded by so many women and starts to pry into his love life.
The women all eventually leave the cafe. Marian thanks Angelo for staying and putting up with all of the women's gossiping.

Stuart's Sadness
This event takes place at the hotel in between 1pm and 4pm on a Saturday or Sunday. Stuart, Daisy and Ethel all need to be at 30,000FP (4 hearts) or more. Additionally, Daisy cannot be married.
As you walk into the hotel, you see Stuart who is deep in thought. He excuses himself to go and get something to eat, leaving you at the front desk by yourself. Ethel walks out of the back room after Stuart leaves. She explains that Stuart gets like this often, especially when he thinks about their adult son who doesn't visit them very often. Both Ethel and Stuart miss their son very much, but with Daisy around the hotel, they do feel a little bit happier.
As Stuart comes back into the room, Daisy comes in from outside. She excitedly shows Stuart a tasty dessert that Angelo gave her. She wanted to show Stuart since its one of his favorite foods. This seems to cheer Stuart up.

Grown Children

Ethel walks into the cafe to find Joan and Marian inside. Marian was just going outside to sweep and excuses herself, leaving the two older women to talk. Ethel compliments Joan on how beautiful her granddaughter has become. Joan seems to be proud of Marian and comments that it is a nice feeling to have her living in Zephyr Town.
This saddens Ethel slightly who misses her own son. She wishes he would move back to Zephyr Town as well. Ethel decides to leave as Marian comes back in.
