In The Sims 2, the Broke family resides in Pleasantview. It consists of Brandi Broke, widow of Skip Broke; Dustin Broke, a rebellious teen street hawker going steady with Angela Pleasant; and Beau Broke, a toddler who is not well learned in his essential toddler skills. When the family is first played, Brandi is pregnant with her third child from the deceased Skip. Brandi is also the daughter of Bob and Betty Newbie, a married couple that was introduced in The Sims. However, she does not appear in The Sims, likely because she hadn't been born yet at the time.
