Funky Goes to Space

"Funky Goes to Space" is exactly what you think it is.
==Plot==
OK. So, the last episode messed up a lot of things. Sure, Mr. Krabs was the only main character to actually die and it's not exactly unusual for Mr. Krabs to die in episodes like this, but a lot of main characters attempted to murder other main characters. This completely messed up their friendships and I'm fairly certain everybody hates each other now. I don't even think I can upload a picture of what Graggle looked like by the end of the last episode.
Why am I bringing this up now? Because I used this as an opportunity to fix some minor problems in the game that I couldn't do before while also trying to get everybody to apologise to each other. There's about an hour of gameplay where nothing is happening, I'll just give a rundown.
*Funky tries to make up with Graggle.
*A probably drunk SpongeBob pees himself outside, sniffs the air (it smells of pee probably), then passes out when going to the upstairs bathroom.
*I am forced to get a better bed for SpongeBob because he refuses to go to sleep in the one he currently has.
*Funky smokes weed to become inspired so he can build a rocket ship! Graggle and SpongeBob do the same so they can assist.
*The Kong Household has the internet installed.
*Mario tries to continue writing his book "Super Fucking Mario" but can't get in the right mood. Also, he smokes too much weed while trying to get in the right mood.
*The Nintendo Household has the internet installed.
The SBFW Household does not have the internet installed, I forgot to do it. The only entertainment for Garfield currently, is possessing the bath, causing it to break and then wondering why it's broken. The household then start having awkward conversations where they're just laughing at each other over nothing, it's 5 in the morning.
Aidan goes to work (reminder: he is a doctor) and starts playing with a football in the waiting area. I don't know where he got the football from, I think it was meant to be a toy for the dog. He also has a "fear of a dead-end job" and is questioning if he has a future in his career. Nevertheless, he gets to work and scans a child's body. The game constantly wants him to do these examinations but he actually has no idea what the results of the examinations mean. After checking the child's temperature, Aidan goes to look at a dinosaur in the waiting area. He then heads back and checks the child's ears, hopefully the child won't need any surgery, their parents may have to beginning preparing for the inevitability of him dying.
The last episode was Murder Day and Winterfest is apparently going to happen in this episode. What happened to Thanksgiving? Geekcon is also happening today but Aidan is a bit busy trying to fix a medical machine that he doesn't actually know how to use. Once Aidan has fixed the machine, he tests a sample he got from another patient (not the child, his case was transferred to somebody else). The machine tells him that the patient has an infection and provides no further details, that infection could be anywhere.
In the end, Aidan isn't smart enough to find the infection and deals with another patient. After a few tests on that patient, he tries to take the patient's temperature and it causes the thermometer to break somehow. It works the second time. After a few tests, the patient is found to have "Gas-And-Giggles" and Aidan prescribes him medication. I don't think Aidan should be allowed to prescribe people medication. Aidan also gives another patient a shot for a "bloaty head", I don't think he should be giving people shots. Somehow he manages to cure both patients before heading home. At home, Aidan decides he wants a cupcake factory. Why? I bought one for him, so I guess Aidan can make cupcakes now if he wishes to.
At the Kong household, Graggle decides to get a job in law. That job requires him to purchase this weird "research archive machine" computer which if you over contribute to can result in "headaches, dizziness and death." OK... The household also put up their Winterfest decorations, they still have some of their Thanksgiving decorations from last year up, I can't be bothered to remove all of them. Through doing research for his career, Graggle realises he likes doing research. Mr. Krabs' ghost appears in the house and possesses the coffee machine... and does nothing else.
At some point during all of this, SpongeBob gets both drunk and high and decides that now would be a good time to help build Funky Kong's rocket ship. There's one big flaw in this plan, he needs to pee, so he ends up doing one thing for the rocket ship before leaving to go to the toilet... I think SpongeBob might be on LSD too... 
SpongeBob continues to work on the rocket ship into Winterfest morning. He stops at about 7 in the morning, the first thing he does after stopping work on the rocket is make an alcoholic drink. Happy Winterfest! The maid shows up, despite the holiday, so Funky gives him a tip to show appreciation for his work.
The household decides to sing "Fwingle Zibbs" together around the Winterfest tree, it's The Sims 4 version of "Jingle Bells" basically. After they're done singing, Funky gives SpongeBob his Winterfest present, a DVD player. Outside of the house, a man is on fire... There's an arsonist in the street, I guess arsonists don't get a day off.
Funky goes outside and sees a load of fires, getting himself on fire in the process. Graggle also mentions the fire, but he's not actually outside. He and SpongeBob do, however, run outside to where the fire is. That's safe. The man who was originally on fire somehow manages to put himself out and walk off while SpongeBob tries to extinguish the fires.
Once SpongeBob has extinguished most of the fires, Graggle walks into where the fires were with Hallie; if the fires were still there, that would've been a problem. A random man also appears out of nowhere and starts running, the man is Willard Kline and he's apparently a "victim of arson". Willard Kline is actually an arsonist from a previous episode, but he's pretending to be shocked by the fires for some reason.
After that incident, Funky gives Graggle his Winterfest present. A pack of cigars... Graggle seems to really appreciate the gift, but somehow immediately after opening the gift, Graggle ends up on fire despite there being no fires in the area at this point. Funky, after first ignoring this, extinguishes Graggle and Willard Kline appears to leave the house, I didn't even know he was in there.
Luigi and April are invited to the house as Funky begins preparing the grand meal (worth noting he's got bad hygiene right now). SpongeBob appears to be on LSD again, as he's terrified from a bad trip while talking to two of his daughters, April and Hallie. The power in the household goes out and SpongeBob runs off terrified to smoke some weed. 
The grand meal is finished and of "excellent quality" despite Funky's hygiene. But that's not important, FATHER WINTER IS HERE! For whatever reason, Funky makes a bold pick-up line to him, he obviously gets rejected and I don't know what was actually said but it sounded like Father Winter said "son of a bitch!" SpongeBob goes up to him and gets a Winterfest present, a coffee machine! Graggle gets his present, a "never ending world adventures award" as somebody finally pays the bills and the lights in the house turn on again.
Luigi and April leave the house, without having eaten any of the grand meal I invited them over for. Funky gets his Winterfest present which is "brand spankin' new" and "so big" it's a gaming mat. Funky calls everybody to the grand meal, at almost 11 PM. After eating some of it, Graggle sabotages the meal by putting spicy peppers in it. Anybody who eats the meal now will get some "serious heartburn" that's not nice. The spicy peppers come as a shock to SpongeBob with fire literally coming out of his mouth somehow.
Winterfest was awesome for everyone except Hallie who only found it "pretty good" and hopes to do more next year. Also because I had the household doing weed so they would work on the rocket ship quicker, SpongeBob is a stoner now, oops. Let's go back to the SBFW household.
Aidan goes to sleep after gaming at 3 in the morning. He wakes up only about 2 hours later to eat some food. Garfield opens his Winterfest present, the present is 1 Large Pet Poop, Garfield isn't particularly happy about this. Aaron opens his present, 2 Robot Vacuum Docks, he will treasure them.
Aidan practises his programming skills so he's focused and ready for work. When he's at work, he instantly cures a patient by giving them a shot and another patient by giving them medication. He is now eligible for a promotion. At some point he apparently saw an "unattractive sim" and Aidan should look away otherwise Aidan might end up feeling "truly ill." After getting a snack, Aidan gives a patient a flu vaccine and finds the patient attractive...
Aidan is clearly trying to get a promotion, instead of working with patients, he is mopping the floors. One of the patients that has entered the hospital is someone Aidan doesn't like but luckily, Aidan doesn't have to help him. Aidan's shift ends and although he gets a vacation day, he is not given a promotion.
Back at the Kong household, it's Hallie's birthday and the household continues building the rocket instead of celebrating. They finish the rocket and actually start celebrating Hallie's birthday with a birthday party.
Not much happens at the party really. Funky spends the time working out, Graggle goes to sleep and when Funky is done working out he finds April (who was invited to the party) and gives her a pack of cigarettes as a gift. April responds by flirting with him... I don't think she remembers who Funky is.
And that's it, the party's over. Hallie didn't even get to blow out the candles because the game wouldn't let her.
6 days later, I relaunch the game and finally Hallie blows out the candles. After 6 minutes. 3 of those minutes was a loading screen. Just one. One loading screen. I hate The Sims.
sighs Hallie ages up. Apparently her skills as a toddler earned a bonus trait, all she did was walk around, she was annoying honestly. Anyway it asked me for a trait to give her, I gave her the evil trait and some random aspiration, I thought having an evil child would be funny and it fits with how terrible the party was.
Oh shit.
We had this event a few episodes ago. It basically means all the restaurants and bars are selling free food and drinks. It was stupid then but it's worse now because SpongeBob has a drinking problem. SpongeBob heads to a bar and orders a whisky. And then vodka. And then a gin. He starts drinking 2 drinks at once. Then he tells someone at the bar that he's a criminal mastermind. Then he orders a screwdriver drink. You know the game thinks he's "sobering up" because he hasn't actually finished any of these drinks yet...
...now he's drunk. Some random woman talks to him briefly and SpongeBob suddenly becomes dizzy, I can't imagine why. SpongeBob finishes another drink and feels "wrecked and utterly wasted" so he orders another alcoholic drink. He almost passes out but manages to avoid it by drinking a coffee as well.
The drink SpongeBob orders never actually turns up but somebody, who is not the bartender, can be seen behind the bar drinking something... SpongeBob pulls out a bong and starts smoking weed, still at the bar. The bartender magically returns and SpongeBob orders another drink. And then another. And then he leaves one drink on the floor briefly for some reason. And then he orders another drink. And another. And then he takes two drinks outside and drinks them sitting on a bench.
While sat on the bench, SpongeBob feels "messed up" because he has had "one or five drinks too many" he also needs to pee. He takes another sip of a drink, but before he has the chance to go to the toilet, he passes out on the ground with one woman, sitting on a bench next to him, just watching him. A man sitting with the woman gets out his phone, possibly posting about the situation.
After about 20 minutes on the ground, SpongeBob gets up and begins to walk to the toilets, but he passes out again before he even gets inside the bar. The couple(?) who spotted him before manage to walk past him to get into the bar. While SpongeBob is still asleep on the ground, he gets a fever.
SpongeBob wakes up and this time manages to get to the toilet. He plans on getting a coffee and another alcoholic drink, but passes out once again before he gets to. When he wakes up he... Gets a coffee and orders another drink, idiot. He passes out again before getting the drink, just give up. He wakes up and gets another coffee, but he also drinks both at the same time, you should see the way he walked outside with the drinks, he's completely out of it at this point.
He passes out on the ground again, to the surprise of nobody. People keep walking past him outside, completely ignoring the drunk sponge. SpongeBob finally decides to go home at this point, but some random dude called Caleb came home with him for some reason. SpongeBob also has some incoherent anger buff, I am guessing that's a side effect from too much drinking.
At home, Hallie mourns Mr. Krabs and starts crying in her bed, likely because Mr. Krabs was also evil. Mr. Krabs' ghost then shows up in the house and Hallie "discusses evil plans" with him. It's not clear what the evil plans are. Hallie thinks afterwards that the encounter was awkward and starts jeering at Mr. Krabs. Hallie then attempts to steal Mr. Krabs' money, but fails.
The night on the town event was a failure for everybody, except SpongeBob who got to do "everything he wanted to do." That doesn't stop him from waking up with a massive hangover and his head "hurting like crazy!" After waking up, he has a bath, smokes weed at the same time and then starts singing in the shower. Also Graggle has a nicotine addiction now, this is Funky's fault for giving him cigars for Winterfest.
Despite drinking far too much yesterday, SpongeBob makes another drink and quickly ends up drunk again. The game still doesn't think he's an alcoholic yet... Oh god, now it's New Year's Eve.
Funky decides that 6 AM on New Year's Eve is a good time to test out the rocket the household built earlier. He puts on his astronaut outfit.
I... Huh??? You're, you're not... SpongeBob... You're Funky Kong??? Not Sponge... What?!?!?!
So anyway, Funky waves to... Nobody. And off he goes to explore space.
Everything interesting that happens in space, we can't see, it's all in text form. You'll have to use your...
Funky is suddenly feeling anxious and jumpy. There's a strange tingling sensation in his hands and feet, and he feels a little light-headed. Could he have Space Madness?? Could be something wrong with the air flow...? He turns the fan higher... I think, the video glitched when I pressed the button. Anyway. Ah, that's better. See? Funky's fine. If he really had Space Madness he'd start to panic randomly and make really bad decisions.
OH NO!! The rocket's too HEAVY!! Funky should start ejecting things immediately! He ejects the escape pods. One by one Funky starts ejecting the escape pods from his rocket, watching them drift off into space. But the ship is still too heavy! Why is it so heavy? Something else has to go. Funky starts panicking, because if the ship is too heavy it will definitely crash!
Funky can't let the government see his cargo, because then THEY'LL KNOW. But after jettisoning all the cargo, the ship is still too heavy! The only thing left is fuel and food, so Funky starts eating all the astronaut food he can.
The rest of the text got cut-off, I clicked "throw up" but I don't actually know what that meant in this context. I then get a notification that simply reads:
..oh no wait, there's more
"But wait - Funky's slowly starting to feel sharper, more clear-headed...why did he do so many weird things? He must have had Space Madness! In case it comes back, Funky heads for home immediately."
Funky comes back home and nobody is there to greet him... It's almost as if nobody cares that he went to space.
