Just thought of something I’d do for fun and to give my thoughts. I’m only doing Arnold and his class. I don’t want to overload myself with characters.
Arnold: I see him becoming a guidance counselor for PS118. He wishes to help bring a brighter future to Hillwood and to help kids through their problems. He didn’t like the idea of asking for so much money as a therapist. He also still helps his parents run the boarding house.
Gerald: I believe he would become the next radio DJ of MJZZ. He loves it there, but he’s also trying to offer his voice to audio books as well because he misses telling stories like the ones he did as a kid.
Phoebe: She decides to become a college professor to help mold the minds of future world builders. She originally was going to be Helga’s editor, but life happened and she decided to live herself and give Helga time to heal on her own. She misses her, but she feels it’s the best course of action for both of them, no matter how painful.
Harold: After blowing his one shot of getting a college degree in football, he becomes the butcher he dreamed of as an early teen.
Sid: Since one of his dreams jobs was archaeology, I think he would most likely become a museum curator. I think he’s too paranoid to actually explore the world and be an archaeologist, but museum curators have to have knowledge in archaeology though. I thought it would fit, but I also think an actuary job fits him as well. XD
Stinky: After all the times he got pushed into a trash he believes it as a prophetic sign from the “Mystical Disembodied Voice” to become a garbage man (you can just hear Helga saying, “Stinky you’re an idiot.”). He still maintains a proper garden and sells the harvest every now and then, but not many people in the city would buy from a place called “Stinky’s Stand”.
Rhonda: She tried to make it as an actress, model, and even a fashion designer, but none were successful. Her parents grown sick of her wasting money on her temporary dreams, so they tell to either get a job, follow the family business in stocks, or they’ll cut off her ties to their bank account. So now she work’s at the Gammelthorpe‘s dry cleaners to pay off beauty school in hopes maybe she’ll run a beauty salon. She growing tired of broken dreams and seriously considers marrying for money every now and then.
Nadine: She becomes an entomologist. It was the most fitting since of her undying love of things creepy and crawly.
Sheena: She becomes a home health nurse because it was originally a way to prepare for Eugene’s inevitable need of constant medical attention. She eventually does it for herself because she genuinely likes this line of work with or without Eugene.
Eugene: He moves away to become a musical theatre actor in California. However, fate had different plans. Instead he settles for becoming a stunt double in comedy movies. Even if he’s no more than an in-between shot in a film, Eugene is just happy that his dream has technically come true. He still hopes one day he will be the main protagonist in a bigtime musical one day.
Curly: He ran off with Eugene to make it as a star as well. He a bit more successful than Eugene do to his over-the-top personality. He still doesn’t get the best roles, but at least he’s not a stunt double. I like to think Eugene and Curly would have an “Odd Couple” type of friendship when they’re trying to be famous.
Lila: Thanks to the help of Olga she became the famous ballerina she always wanted to be. She gets to tour with a crew and dance into everybody’s hearts. Even though her dream has come true, she misses Hillwood, even more than she ever missed Pleasantville. So choosing her friends and family of Hillwood over ballet, she quits her dream, and becomes a ballet teacher instead. She also gardens on the side. ;3
Brainy: He moved to Elk Island and became a woodsperson… (I don’t know think of something better!)
Lorenzo: He’s rich...
Helga: Not getting into the college of her dreams was one of the worst days of her life. Arnold and her broke up, Arnold left to go to college in another state, she never got to say goodbye to him, Phoebe left for the college of her dreams, and Olga was permanently staying in Hillwood to become an actress. She had never felt so low and pathetic. She was never one to wallow in her pain though, so she hardened up, and kept moving forward with her life. She went to a community college in Hillwood to have some form of education until she can figure out what she could do next. She worked two jobs, Slausen’s in the day and El Patio at night. She needed two to save up for whatever she was going to do next and pay the rent of her apartment. There was no way she was staying in the dump her parents called a home now that she was a legal adult. Eventually, she finally decided to become a teacher. She always enjoyed telling people what to do, so might as well boss a bunch of 4th grade, snotty nose brats. She also did it for the vacation hours, so she could have time to hone her writing passion and make a novel. Without Arnold in her life though, she lost any inspiration she had to write left. Now there’s apparently some new guidance counselor she had watch out for. “Guidance counselor, what a load of… Arnold!”
