Bernard Broke/theories

Like Lolita Goth, Bernard has the last name of a premade family (Broke) yet does not appear on the family tree, why do you think this is? Post your theories Below:

Who is Bernard Broke?

 * It could be just they couldn't fit him in the sims games.


 * Just because he has the same last name doesn't mean he's related to them


 * I think he was the middle brother of Flat and Buck, or he is the deceased twin of Ruby, or not necessarily her twin, but another sibling. He may also be their father, or a cousin.


 * I think Bernard is Flat and Buck's dad.


 * Most likely a developer oversight.


 * I think he is Flat and Buck's stepfather. Some blended families do have the kids take the stepfather's last name in real life. And in TS3, if your female Sim already has kids and marries another man, her kids will take their stepfather's last name. Sparrowsong 01:51, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think he was the first husband of Mary Lu, Flo Broke or Ruby
 * It was the exact same problem as it was with Frida/Lolita Goth, EA were using CAS to create all their sims. both the Goths and the Brokes have 8 people in their family (not including Bernard Boke and Lolita Goth) so the answer is EA just couldn't fit him in the family due to the 8 sim limit.

 * He's a distant relative, yet to be discovered by the Brokes. Gallifrey102 13:08, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with the 2nd theory. Lots of people have the same last name. It doesn't automatically make them related, does it?
 * I agree with the one above me. Once I saw a waiter that had my last name, but I know for a FACT that he's not related me!
