 * caption    = On the surface, Daniel and Mary-Sue Pleasant seem to have the perfect life, but is their love a flimsy façade? And can Angela and Lilith make the right choices when it comes to love?
 * description = (The Pleasants sure are pleasant... or are they?)

The Pleasants has grown bigger in the years following The Sims, where it was the nicest and most normal family around. Jeff and Diane Pleasant are deceased, Jennifer Pleasant marries John Burb and has one child, Lucy. Daniel Pleasant marries Mary-Sue Pleasant and has two twin girls, Angela Pleasant and Lilith Pleasant.

Daniel Pleasant has an affair with their housekeeper, but you can decide what happens with that. In The Sims 3, Jeff will be starting out in a Military career and a rumor that he is cheating with a maid named Tamina Zaverez.

Just like what his son did by cheating with Tamina's daughter who is a housekeeper/maid Kaylynn Langerak, Daniel will also be a toddler and Diane will be pregnant, presumably with Jennifer.


 * etymology      = Pleasant -- "pleasing, agreeable, enjoyable"

Daniel Pleasant -- From a Hebrew name meaning "Judged by God" or "God is my judge"

Jennifer Burb -- (Daniel's sister) -- Popular name meaning "fair, white, smooth"

Mary-Sue Pleasant -- Mary Sue is a term for a fictional character of fan-fiction that are portrayed in an overly idealized way and lacking noteworthy or realistic flaws. Also, one of the main characters of the film Pleasantville (as opposed to Pleasantview) became named Mary Sue when she entered the titular neighborhood. (For Mary-Sue's adoptive parents etymology, please look under the Oldie category)

Angela Pleasant -- The name derives from the heavenly angels.

Lilith Pleasant -- Meaning "of the night". This name was a demon in ancient Assyrian myths. In Jewish and Islamic tradition, she was Adam's first wife but was replaced by Eve. Offspring of Adam and Lillith were the evil spirits of the world.

Jeff Pleasant (Daniel's dad) -- Means either "territory peace", "stranger peace", "hostage peace" or "god's peace".

Diane Pleasant (Daniel's mom) -- Meaning "heavenly, divine"

Les Pleasant (Daniel's paternal grandfather) -- A pun so that the name says "Less Pleasant." The puns are quite hilarious, seeing as Les is a real name, short for Lester or Leslie.

Kynda Pleasant (Daniel's paternal grandmother) -- A pun so that the name says "Kind of Pleasant" No real relation there.

All names seem to fit in quite nicely. The name Lillith seems to be very fitting to her character, but holds a really bad reputation. Angela's name is the most obvious, but fitting. You can kind of see Mary-Sue as the "wanting-to-be-perfect" role in the family. And Daniel is "Judged by God" for cheating on his wife
