Why DOES Denise Jacquet have that large bear statue in her room?
Did she kill it with her bare hands? (And then dye it?) Does she secretly want to open a toy shop? Did she have a gigantic childhood toy? Does it scare off intruders? Or does she just have really bad taste?What's your interpretation of this backstory?
I use the sims as a psychology simulator...

What bear statue are you refering to? A picture of it would help

It was a gift from her mad husband. She was outraged at the extravagance, and pushed it away. It fell, and killed him. It still has his blood stuck to its paws. She keeps it for the occasional gloat.

Okay, good call (sorry, I x-posted)
So I went in-game and asked her.
She thought very carefully.
Then she turned away and pierced me with a stare; wasn't it obvious? This wasn't just any bear, it was the beloved mascot of the Sweetie Pie Pastry Company, established c.1835 and considered responsible for guiding an entire nation into sweet-toothed oblivion. She'd bought it as an investment piece, of course, just like that original Wise painting, and if business ever broke down, she had them both there on standby. And besides, she'd always liked that bear.
That told me!
Edit: Bahaha! I love the husband story!

She is eccentric - and why not? Widow, elder, rich businesswoman and great cook - I think she has earned the right!

She and Steven Tinker once shared a moment when he stopped into the bakery to buy a pie for a family holiday dinner. He was the last customer of the day, and somehow the two got to talking...and laughing. There was a spark there, but no lines were crossed...just a knowing glance. Steven, had told her all about his wish to open a toy store one day soon, and how he was working towards that goal. Denise, was so encouraging...unlike Wanda. She clasped his hand and gave him a reassuring smile. He thanked her and left the shop.
After that day the two never saw one another, or spoke again. Some weeks later, a courier showed up at the bakery with a huge package...it was the bear. The note attached simply said "You are one special lady." and signed "Eternally grateful." She knew in her heart that it was from Steven, and had Gilbert and a staff member load the bear into their delivery van and take to her home.

I reckon she made it herself, but meant to give it to the Tinkers as a surprise gift - but they found out so she kept it.
The drop off has been made. You've been warned.

Maybe she had a bear just like it when she was a young lass in France.
And somehow she became obsessed and made a LIFELIKE RENDITION OF IT! *dun dun dunnm*

It's not her's, it's Gilbert's, her son's. It's a total reflection of him, overbearing, childish and irresponsible.
That's why all my sims are forbidden to marry him. A man who lives with his mother and a big stuffed teddy bear is not good husband material.

I've always thought there was something odd about their relationship. I've even acted on it from time to time

I've had my doubts about Gilbert like that....he doesn't quite look like Tony Perkins, but I'm sure there's something missing.
