Big Top was over his cold and feeling better today. He thanked me for the medicine I gave him recently by rewarding me with a concrete wall. Thankfully, it fit easily into my pockets.
Crazy Redd was in town, so I went inside his tent to check out what he had for sale. He had a common painting this week, but I already have one of those in my museum. Then I saw he also had a cool swordâa white katana. However, he wanted 73,600 bells for it! No way!

Outside, I ran into an angry Hopper. He told me to shut up because he was in a bad mood. It wasnât my fault, though! He must have had an argument with someone else.
Rod was all packed up and ready to move out of town. I decided to let him to go. Even though I did ask him to stay one time, I didnât feel like talking to him over and over until he agreed to reconsider. And thatâs what you have to do. So long, my mousey friend.
A bit later, I ran into Hopper again and he pinged me. He thanked me for putting up with him, and he admitted that he gets crabby sometimes (yeah, like just a few minutes before). So he surprised me by giving me his picture!
I made a 20,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall, and then I returned home to take a look at Hopperâs pic. This is my 7th villager pic so far. Hopperâs favorite quote is on the back: âThis is my good side.â
73,600 bells?!?!??!?! WOW.
Hopper mustâve given up whatever heâd been eating that was giving him gas (I noticed he didnât say âif I fartâ anymore).
