The Crumplebottoms from ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' and ''The Sims 2 Nightlife'' are not actually the same Sims, but distant relatives.<ref>{{Wayback|url=http://thesims2.ea.com/community/chat_06_16_05.php |date=20111120182042 |title=TheSims2.com - Community - Chat Transcripts 6.16.05}}</ref> It has been revealed that [[Agnes Crumplebottom]] was Miss Crumplebottom from ''The Sims: Hot Date''.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFq40YSYGso The Sims 3 Demo With Grant Rodiek Part 1]</ref>

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>

Mrs. CrumpleBottom is also impossible to change. While making her part of a household will cause game corruption and is not recommended, if a player does this with the [[Tombstone of Life and Death]] and tries to change her personality with the [[Sim Modder]], her behavior will not change in the least. Even with full niceness, she will still lecture Sims for showing affection, showing too much skin, or slacking off.
Mrs. CrumpleBottom personality is fixed and cannot be changed. While making her part of a household will cause game corruption and is not recommended, if a player does this with the [[Tombstone of Life and Death]] and tries to change her personality with the [[Sim Modder]], her behavior will not change in the least. Even with full niceness, she will still lecture Sims for showing affection, showing too much skin, or slacking off.


Mrs. CrumpleBottom may not even be a Sim in the strictest sense of the word. She cannot be interacted with by any Sim, and will lecture Sims who want to interact with her. Upon being bitten by a vampire, Mrs. CrumpleBottom has the same stricken gesture as any other bitten Sim, however she does not convert and remains the same as if she were immune to the bite. In addition, game corruption may occur if she is bitten. It is believed that this is because of the game treating her as an object instead of a Sim.<ref>Her character file is located in the objects.package file.</ref>
Mrs. CrumpleBottom, upon viewing in SimPE, is treated as an object. Her data is located in objects.package in the game files. Thus, Mrs. CrumpleBottom cannot be interacted with in any way. Any attempt to interact with her will resulted in the Sim being lectured. Mrs. CrumpleBottom can be bitten by a vampire, upon which Mrs. CrumpleBottom will have the same stricken gesture as any other bitten Sim, however she does not convert and remains the same. As this autonomous interaction alters the objects.package file, game corruption will occur to the current and every subsequent neighborhoods being played, which can only be resolved by reinstalling the game. It is determined that she is an object, akin to all universal NPCs in the game.<ref>Her character file is located in the objects.package file.</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.
