I am currently completing day 6, (patch in to satellite) and the next task is to take a picture of the fire station, I haven’t built the fire station yet and do not have enough money to do so. Will this mean I can not complete the xmas mishap quest ?

I really hope tha bear doesn’t cost 100LPs after all this “work”! 😒😁😉
Haha me too! 😛
The playing chess task failed to complete. Even the timer is up that I have spent those hour in it, it just dont let me complete it. No matter how I reopen the game it just dont complete. Other tasks are still completed as usual
Is it stuck at 0 seconds, on my iPad I had to use an LP to complete this goal as mine was stuck
Hey, I really need your help. I’m on day 10 and I was about to play chess with the grouch but I made the mistake to send my sim home. When I returned to the park the Grouch was nowhere at the park but he was wandering around my houses. I tried to put a chess in one house but it still didn’t give me the option to play chess with him. What should I do?
Thank you for your blog, it’s really helpful!
Can you not bring him to the park using your simtracker?
You’re welcome!
I am having the same issue! Left it a couple hours so I could come back to it and finish I overnight but now can’t find grouch. I’m so close to finishing, spent a lot of lps to do it in time so will really annoy me! The bear looks so fab!
Love your blog, always use it. Best one on here by far. Thanks for all your background help so far. Really hope you have some hints for this. He is not on sim tracker 🙂
Strange, I don’t know why he disappeared, sorry!
You’re welcome!
I’ve tried splashing a sims face in a bathroom sink and a kitchen sink and it just gives me options to clean under fingernails and wash hands.
Are you using an adult sim?
I’m one number 9 right now with 72% on the teddy bear goal, Am I behind you guys?
Yes a bit behind
How do implore the grouch? It doesn’t give me the option ? 😦
If the grouch is still watching tv you wont be able to select the option, I don’t know why he is doing that but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
How many days is there?
12 days
i cant seem to implore the grouch. everytime i try to clikc on him it goes to another sim
He is probably still watching tv, I don’t know why he is doing that but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
You are at day 10 and I’m at day 7 …… do you think I still can get the bear?
I really dont know, as I don’t know if you are going to be using Lps to speed it up, in that case you probably will, or if you are going to be doing the next task as soon as the previous one has finished so it’s difficult to tell you.
I just started day 8’s tasks! Will I be able to finish in time?
I really dont know, as I don’t know if you are going to be using Lps to speed it up, in that case you probably will, or if you are going to be doing the next task as soon as the previous one has finished so it’s difficult to tell you.
I almost fnished the task of day 9. But when i wanted to ‘implore the grouch’ , the grouch keeps sitting on the chair and watching the TV. please help 😦😦

I accidentally sold my blackboard while I was trying to move it. I don’t have the hobbies store yet, I’m not on that level yet. What can I do?
Sorry there isnt much you can do unfortunately
Why i can’t implore the grouch? He keep watching the tv :((( when i tried to tap on the grouch, nothing happens
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I cannot play chess with the grouch. When I click on him, my only options are to be rude or be friendly. What am I missing?
Are you using an adult sim?
I’m confused about the riddles. It just says the note says magical. But all the options say magical. Is it magical zooming ?
There are 3 riddles each one gives you one word
The answer is all 3 words: magical zooming pants, just click that on the fireplace.
Do you know how I can get the grouch to the park? He’s currently hanging out at the restaurant waiting for it to open.
Is he in your simtracker? If he is click the whistle to bring him to the park.

He is probably still watching tv, I don’t know why he is doing that but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
My grouch is stuck on the couch! Can’t implore. Tried closing the app, sending sim away & back but nothing’s working 😦 What do I do?
Have you tried visiting a neighbour and going back home?
How do you finish the quest fast
I use LPs to speed up the tasks.
So I can’t play chess with the grouch! It says click on him while in the park, and press play chess..but the only options it gives me is be nice or be rude..help please!
Are you using an adult sim?
I’ve stuck at ‘implore the grouch’.
After finish teen’s movie, grouch still sitting on a coach and watching tv.. When click him, no respond at all… What should I do?
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I’m on a mission that told me to watch movie with the grouch for 3 hours. After 3 hours has passed and the mission is complete the grouch stuck on the couch and still watch the movie. I cant proceed the quest i only have 2 days more. How can i fix the glitch? Every answer will be appreciated
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I can’t get my sims to implore the grouch.

I cant find out how to get the fridge light for the last ingredient. I have clicked on multiple fridge’s to see if there was a specific one, but even the fridge where the sleigh is wont work. Help!
Are you using an adult sim?
hello, I am currently doing the day 10 quest and find the Grouch stuck to the tv after watching the movie… Is anyone else experiencing this? May I know how to fix it? Thanks!
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I have an answer for this. Try getting a Sim to watch the news (because shortest time). The TV will never turn off unless it’s being used again. Either that or send the Sim who was watching TV with the grouch to work and use another to implore the grouch. I used the send a Sim to work option before the grouch stopped watching TV. Even then I had to get another Sim to watch the TV before it shut off.
I can’t play chess with the Grouch? I can’t find an elf to click on in the park… Help!
It is not an elf, click on the grouch in the park.
I’m stuck on the Implore the Grouch quest.. i can’t actually click on him
He appears to be still watching the tv for some people, I don’t know why he is doing that but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I sent one of my sims to the santa workshop, than the grouch stopped watching tv! Great to get updates on the quests! Merry Christmas!
That’s good!
Merry Christmas to you too!
I’m doing the Sous Judgemental quest at the same time as doing the Xmas quest on day 10. When I go to the park to play chess with Grouch he isn’t there and stays at the restaurant. Can you help me out how to get him to come to the park please!! Thanks!
Is he in your simtracker? If he is then use the whistle to bring him to the park
do you have to be exact because I’m a little behind so will I have enough time to complete it?
Well I don’t know how behind a little is so I couldn’t tell you, you may need to use some LPs if you don’t have much time left.
Where is the elf in the park to click on in order to play chess with the grouch?
It’s not an elf, click on the grouch.
I was wondering if you have experienced any problems Imploring the Grouch. My grouch just sits on a couch laughing and whenever I click on him, it asks if I want to do an ultimate makeover or have birthday as if he is one of my sims… It seems to be stuck and I don’t know how to stop it to make it complete the quest. I really want a living bear!
Nope I didn’t have this problem, but a few people seem to be having it, I don’t know why he is doing that but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
Thank you for your advice. I closed the app, and when it reopened, the grouch was off the couch and I was able to complete the quest. Still on track for a bear! Thank you! Happy holidays! 🙂
Good! You’re welcome!
You too 🙂
Hi, I sent my sim to watch ‘serris muller’s night in’ with the grouch but he’s glued to the TV and I can’t implore the grouch. Any idea what I can do?
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I can’t implore the grouch because he thinks he’s still watching serris Muller’s night in, hours after my sim has finished watching. Is this a bug anyone else has experienced?
I didn’t have this problem but it seems that a few people are having it, I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I don’t have any questions but I want thank you a ton for making this site. I have run into a few problems here and there and the main guide site wasn’t much help when I looked up a specific thing. You have also helped out a lot of others too. Thanks so much ^_^
You’re very welcome! I’m glad it helps 🙂
why all of my sims don’t want to do “Watch ‘serris mulers night in’ on tv” ? Please help me do that 😦
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
I can’t implore the grouch !! He’s just sitting there laughing at the TV and I can’t click on him !! What should I do ?
I don’t know why he is doing that still but I suggest you close the game, open it again and I would think he will have stopped watching the tv, if that doesn’t work try visiting a neighbour and going back home.
Help I can’t get the grouch to stop watching the tv so my sim can implore him to switch off the machine

so after playing around a bit, and finishing calling the first judge for the sous judgemental, the grouch will go to whatever lot you’re aT. Just send a sim to the park and he’ll show up there

Send home the sim that watched TV and call back that sim (or maybe another sim might work) to where the Grouch is. It should work now. 🙂
I cant find the grouch
Look in the park.
