He will tell you that someone dug a tunnel and escaped from jail. Go back into the jail and notice that the poster that was there is now a tunnel. Between 6 a.m. to 7:30 a.m., a ninja will be in the tunnel and sell you smoothies that will give you skill points. One will give you 2,000 Simoleons.

Heidi Shadows can be found at the following times and places:

Hint: Accessing Moon Base Zeta:Purchase a green meteorite off the Internet shopping. Then, with the meteorite still in you pocket, go to Sim Quarter and use the telephone booth. The moon base, where you can buy the Rocket Bed and Cheese Modulator, is now open. Note: Complete the first group of missions before attempting to open Moonbase Zeta. If it is still not accessible, then complete the secret missions and try again. Also, if it says "Phone home" when you use it, that means it worked and you can use it.

To get to the moon base, buy a meteorite from the Internet. Keep it in your pocket and go to the red telephone booth in SimQuarter. Go inside, and select "Home". This will take you to the moon base.
