“I was reading the newspaper this morning but then I got depressed. It's a rotten world, kid. Keep your head screwed on right and you'll make it through in one piece... That's what my Pappy always used to say. Heh heh heh.”
When the bus service has not been fixed by completing the Vault Room Bundles, most days Pam can be found in her trailer until 12:00 PM. She'll then walk over to JojaMart for a few hours, leaving there at 4:00 PM to walk to The Stardrop Saloon. Pam is one of Gus' most loyal customers. She spends every evening in his establishment.
Pam has her doctor's appointment on Spring 25, and thus you will be unable to go to The Desert on that day.
You can give Pam up to two gifts per week (plus one on
her
birthday), which will raise or lower
her
friendship with you. Gifts on
her
birthday ( 18 Spring) will have 8× effect and show a unique dialogue. For loved or liked gifts, Pam will say
“
“You remembered my birthday? I'm impressed. Thanks.”
“
“Oh, is it my birthday today? I guess it is. Thanks. This is nice.”
For neutral gifts, Pam will say
“
“For my birthday? Thanks.”
For disliked or hated gifts, Pam will say
“
“It's my birthday and you give me this? Is this some kind of joke?”
Love
“
“Hey, hey! Now this is really something! Thanks a million, kid.”
At any friendship level greater than zero friendship points, you may receive a gift in the mail from Pam. The chance of receiving a gift in the mail increases as your friendship with Pam increases.
Here's the recipe for a little treat my pappy used to make. Cook it slow.
-Pam
Nine Hearts
Purchase the "Community Upgrade" from the Carpenter's Shop. After earning 9 hearts of friendship with Pam, enter Pam's house at least 4 days after the Community Upgrade is completed.
Details
You find Pam praying before a Sign of the Vessel statue. She confesses that she loves the new house, but hasn't been able to cut back on her drinking. She says she thought the new house would change everything, but it didn't, so she ordered the statue. She then turns to the player for a response.
I'm glad you're feeling hopeful(No effect on friendship.)
Pam says she's "getting sappy" in her old age, and the cutscene ends.
Sorry Pam, but Yoba isn't real...(-1000 friendship.)
Pam becomes angry and declares her faith in Yoba before ordering you to leave.

“How much do I drink every day? What kind of a question is that?”
In v1.3, Pam no longer follows you into the bus when purchasing a ticket to the desert. Instead, she stands in place until the bus cutscene triggers. This may have been done to prevent the rare "disappearing Pam" bug, in which Pam would disappear from the game and never return.
On Sundays in Fall, Pam may say "I miss my old truck driving job. I used to go all around the valley, meetin' people, listenin' to the radio. Times sure do change."
History
