Newbie family

The Newbie Family was used in the in-game tutorial with The Sims. The tutorial home, which you were allowed to continue to play after the tutorial was complete, included Bob Newbie and Betty Newbie. in The Sims Bob and Betty live in a small house at 7 sims lane in. Bob and Betty do not appear as playable Sims within a neighbourhood in The Sims 2 games apart from The Sims 2: Pets (console). As former residents of Pleasantview, the now-deceased Bob Newbie and Betty Newbie appear in the family tree view of playable Sims Brandi Broke and her sons, teen Dustin Broke and toddler Beau Broke. Brandi is their daughter, who was married to the late Skip Broke.

Betty Newbie 'glitch' in The Sims 1
In TS1, the player can start the tutorial at 7 Sim Lane and end it before the introduction of Betty Newbie so that life goes on for Bob without her. Bob can be played as a normal Sim character then, free to marry another Sim.
