Burglars and Peeping Toms

It seems that when I install burglar alarms, I will not see a burglar for the entire extent of the game. However, when I neglect to buy them, a burglar will inevitably show up at some point. The foul fiend stole their computer.

Patrick woke up and phoned the police.

The burglar sprinted down the street just as the police car drove into sight.

In the days since she quit her job at the restaurant, Doris's foolishness in wanting to be a vampire has become increasingly evident, as her favorite past-time is now working in her garden. Doris, vampires don't like the sun, remember? Oy.

So every day she gets up and weeds and waters and harvests - in her nightgown, usually - all the while smoking and complaining about the sun. Boo hoo.

This really has nothing to do with anything else in the story, but since the Bunches are mildly famous, random people show up to peek in their windows and see what's going on. It's the price of celebrity, I guess, except that despite being a household of vampires, the Bunches are really depressingly vanilla. I guess that's why people keep making up scandals about Doris.
