Notes

Olimar's journal

Sometimes I miss my carefree bachelor days. Once you have a family, those days are history! I like spending time with my wife, but sometimes I just want to be alone.

Sales pitch

Put this on your spouse and you will always know if he or she is approaching. How convenient! A must-have item for couples who like to hide things.

Schnauz's notesEdit

Do you have one of those spouses who loves to play pranks on you? For example, one who gets a laugh from sneaking up and startling you with a "boo!" Well, put this on your prank- pulling partner, and you'll always know when they are approaching. It's a must-have item for the spouse who wants to have the last laugh.

Louie's notesEdit

Could it be a fruit? It looks like there's some kind of seed on the inside, but the husk is inedible.
