{{Distinguish|Miss Crumplebottom}}

'''Mrs. CrumpleBottom''' is an [[Non-playable character|NPC]] featured in ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]''. She frequently visits Downtown lots and is usually considered an obstacle in the lives of [[Sim]]s.

 

Mrs. CrumpleBottom is a very old-fashioned, stern, and strict woman who appears to abide by a [[wikipedia:Victorian morality|moral code from the Victorian Era]]. She detests when two Sims have any romantic interactions in public. When Mrs. CrumpleBottom sees any of these actions taking place on a community lot, she will promptly scold the Sims or beat them with her purse.<ref>In some versions of ''[[The Sims 2]]'', there is a glitch which may prevent Mrs. CrumpleBottom from noticing any romantic interactions.</ref> If a Sim innocently wanders out in his/her underwear or bathing suit, Mrs. CrumpleBottom will repeatedly lecture them until he/she changes back into his/her everyday clothes. This could be an issue if the player makes a public pool as a Downtown lot. Mrs. CrumpleBottom loves to knit, and she will usually knit as an idle animation when she's not doing anything; in fact, it was revealed that knitting utensils are one of the many things inside of her purse, others including lint, stones, and a portrait of her great aunt.<ref>[http://fr.sims.wikia.com/wiki/Les_Sims_2:_Nuits_de_Folie/Chat_25/08/2005]</ref>

 

 

 

If the player has ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'' expansion pack, a Sim may wish for Romance from a [[Wishing Well|wishing well]]. There is a chance that the wish will fail, and Mrs. CrumpleBottom will crawl out of the well and hit the Sim with her purse. When she attacks the Sim, they may be [[fury|furious]] with her if she wins.

One question that is often wondered about by inquisitive simmers is "If her name is Mrs. CrumpleBottom, then who was her husband?" There are many rumors around the community, and here are some of the most prominent:

*She was married to the founder of SimCity/Downtown.{{fact}}

*She was married to a rich Sim who put a lot of money into the community, and she feels that she runs the town because of it.

*Some players believe that Mrs. CrumpleBottom could be the daughter of Agnes Crumplebottom and [[Erik Darling]]. Although it is a strong possibility, it would be inconsistent, considering that she did not return in ''[[The Sims 3]]''.

*Another theory is that Mrs. CrumpleBottom is the widow of [[Robert Crumplebottom]], a character mentioned in ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' who was originally said to be the late husband of Miss Crumplebottom, but this was later stated not to be the case. This would make sense, since later versions of the game make it clear that Miss Agnes Crumplebottom was born into the family and that her husband was a different character altogether, while Mrs. CrumpleBottom's title makes it more likely that she married a male relative of the family and took his name.

*In ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', there is a location in [[Sim State University]] known as '''Crumplebottom Lane'''. This may be a reference to Mrs. CrumpleBottom and her family.

*There was some speculation that she would return in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', though when the game came out she was not included in it.
