Alright guys, buckle up! You're wandering around Random Play in Zenless Zone Zero, trying to make some cash and keep your reputation as a Proxy intact, and then you run into this request. It's from a tired-looking NPC, the "Resting Housewife." She basically says, "Hey, I need a movie where people turn into Bangboo to keep my kids quiet for, like, five minutes. Please and thank you." Talk about a mood, right? Being a good neighbor (and a savvy businessperson) means you gotta help her out. But here's the kicker—the game doesn't just hand you the answer. You gotta know your inventory, and trust me, with all the tapes flying around, it's easy to get lost. Don't worry, though, I got you covered. Let's crack this case.
So, the million-Denny question: What movie does the Resting Housewife want?
The answer is shockingly simple, but only if you've done a bit of prep work. The correct videotape is... drumroll please... "Small Body Big Crisis"! Yeah, that's the one. It's exactly the kind of wacky, Bangboo-transformation shenanigans that would hypnotize a couple of kids.

Once you hand over "Small Body Big Crisis," she'll thank you and make a comment about hoping for a moment of peace—a sentiment every parent (and anyone who's babysat) can relate to, lol. Your reward for this good deed? A sweet 12,500 Denny. Not too shabby for a simple recommendation! It's a nice little boost to your wallet, especially when you're saving up for those shiny new W-Engines or agent upgrades.
Now, here's where some of you might be scratching your heads. "Bro, I don't see 'Small Body Big Crisis' in my collection!" If that's you, don't panic. You haven't glitched the game. The tape isn't unlocked from the start. You need to level up your Random Play video store to Level 2.
How to Unlock "Small Body Big Crisis"
It's not as hard as it sounds, promise. Here's the step-by-step:
-
Progress the Main Story: First things first, you gotta play the game. Complete the Prologue and the initial story missions that follow. This is non-negotiable.
-
Reach Video Store Lv. 2: As you complete missions and help clients, your store's reputation (and level) will increase. Once you hit Video Store Lv. 2, "Small Body Big Crisis" will automatically be added to your film library. No side quests, no crazy grinding—just pure, straightforward progression.

Leveling up doesn't just give you this one tape, though. It unlocks a whole new batch of movies for you to rent out and complete other enquiries. Think of it as leveling up your Netflix subscription, ZZZ-style. You'll get access to other flicks like:
-
Enter the Ether
-
The Big Hollow
-
The Ridu Tour
These might come in handy for future requests, so it's a win-win.
Pro-Tips and Final Thoughts
-
Don't Overthink It: This enquiry is one of the simpler ones. It's not like hunting down all the Commemorative Coins or finding every single Cargo Truck. It's a straightforward "unlock and deliver" mission.
-
Check Your Store Level: If you're stuck, just open your menu and check Random Play's level. If it's not Lv. 2 yet, just focus on the main story for a bit.
-
The Reward is Worth It: 12,500 Denny is a solid payout for early-game hustling. It can fund a few Bangboo upgrades or buy some much-needed supplies.

So there you have it, folks! Solving the Resting Housewife Film Enquiry is a total no-brainer once you know the drill. Just keep playing, get that store to Lv. 2, grab "Small Body Big Crisis," and make a mom's day (while padding your wallet). It's these little interactions that make New Eridu feel alive. Now, go out there and be the best Proxy you can be! What other enquiries have you guys found tricky? Let me know in the comments! Peace out ✌️.
