Interestingly, when the player first inherits a house in Maywood Lane, you can see [[Jack Bunch]] driving a [[Car#The Sims 3|Margaret Vaguester with]] his family (considering Jack's career at level 8 of the military career track). Strangely, Jack and Judy have brown hair, but all their children are blond.
