2. How to Complete “Gone but Never Forgotten” Quest
The first quest of Week 4 sends your Sim to Sylvan Glade in Willow Creek for one final adventure with their stuffed animal companion. There are no optional tasks in this quest, and all objectives are simple to complete.
How to Pick Up the Stuffed Animal
Select the stuffed animal and choose Put in Inventory, or drag it directly into your Inventory window.
It’s time for one more adventure with your stuffed animal.
How to Return to Sylvan Glade
If your Sim has already unlocked Sylvan Glade, travel to Foundry Cove and select the tree that leads to it. Choose Travel to Sylvan Glade and then select Confirm to go there.
It’s time to go back to Sylvan Glade.
How to Place a Stuffed Animal in Sylvan Glade
Once you arrive, open your Inventory and select the stuffed animal, then choose Place in World.
Once you place your stuffed friend in the Sylvan Glade, you can have some fun one last time.
How to Play With a Stuffed Animal
After placing the stuffed animal, click it and select Play.
There’s plenty of time for one more play session.
How to Tell Stories to a Stuffed Animal
Select the stuffed animal again, then choose Talk > Tell Story to complete this objective.
There’s also time for more storytelling.
How to Take an Imaginative Photo of the Stuffed Animal
Select the stuffed animal and choose Take an Imaginative Photo. Only one photo is required to finish this step.
Take some final photos of your stuffed friend; you’ll need them later!
How to Hug the Stuffed Animal One Last Time
Click the stuffed animal and select Hug [Stuffed Animal Name] to trigger the final interaction in this quest.
Just one last hug.
How to Return Home
Before leaving Sylvan Glade, place the stuffed animal back into your Inventory. Then select your Sim and choose Go Home, or use the Home button near their profile. This completes the Gone but Never Forgotten quest.
Play time can’t last forever. Sadly, it’s time to go home.
3. How to Complete “Always With Me, Always With You” Quest
This is the final quest in the Forever Friends Event. It includes a mix of main and optional tasks — the latter require the Growing Together Expansion Pack. Complete all optional tasks first, as they will disappear if the main tasks are finished too early. You’ll also need photos taken during the Forever Friends Event; if you deleted them, new ones will work.
How to Tell a Sim About Your Adventures
Click any other Sim and choose Tell About Adventures.
Lots has happened in the last few weeks. Why not tell someone about it?
How to Watch TV Without a Stuffed Animal Nearby
Place a TV on your home lot and ensure a stuffed animal is on the same lot but not near the TV. Then select the TV and choose Watch TV to complete this step.
It’s the watching TV task again… minus your old friend.
How to Have Three or More Photos in the Modern Photo Frame
Use your Modern Photo Frame from Week 2 or purchase one from Build Mode > Decorations > Misc. Then:
- Select the frame and choose Manage Photo Inventory.
- From your Sim’s Inventory, drag at least three photos into the frame’s storage.
- Once three or more photos are uploaded, the task completes.
-
- Select Manage Photo Inventory to see, add, and remove current photos.
-
- Open the stack of photos to see what you have.
-
- Drag the photos into the inventory to add them.
How to Go to School
This objective unlocks only after the photo frame task. Have your Child Sim attend school (Monday–Friday, 8am–3pm). The task completes when they return home. Alternatively, an older Sim returning from work also fulfills this requirement.
Optional: How to Buy a Treehouse
This optional task requires The Sims 4 Growing Together. Enter Build Mode and go to Activities & Skills > Outdoor Activities. Purchase the Timber! Treehouse Base for 1,200 Simoleons. It occupies a 9×9 area, so ensure enough space outdoors. Once placed, the task is complete.
-
- There’s just one treehouse available in Build Mode.
-
- You’ll need lots of room for the treehouse.
Optional: How to Build a Treehouse
Only Teen Sims or older can initiate Build Treehouse. Child Sims can participate using Join Building Treehouse to raise their Mental Skill. Construction takes several hours, but progress can be resumed anytime. Once complete, the objective finishes.
-
- Children can’t build treehouses, at least not without supervision. Get an older Sim to start building work.
-
- Building a treehouse can take hours, but it’s worth it.
Optional: How to Play Pretend in a Treehouse
After finishing construction, select the built treehouse and choose Play Pretend. Any of the five available pretend options will complete this task once your Sim finishes playing.
With the treehouse finished, now you can play in it.
How to Play with the Toybox Without a Stuffed Animal Nearby
Ensure a toybox is present on the home lot and the stuffed animal is somewhere else on the lot but not nearby. Select the toybox and choose Play with Toy. Pick any toy from the list; when your Sim starts playing, the task completes. If it doesn’t register, move the stuffed animal to another room and retry.
Completing all objectives ends the Always With Me, Always With You quest and officially concludes the Forever Friends Event in The Sims 4.
Playing without the stuffed friend nearby sure is strange, but your Sim will be fine.
4. Forever Friends Event End Date and Final Notes
After finishing Gone but Never Forgotten and Always With Me, Always With You, your Sim’s journey with their stuffed companion comes to a warm close. All quests and rewards are now complete.
