{{TB|Ah, Springfield! I can't think of a better way to finish my tour of America's saddest cities.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|What about [[Detroit]]? Or Flint? Or pretty much anything in [[Michigan]]?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|I said sad, not imploding.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|Would you mind if I captured your image, in order to always remember our meeting?}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|You mean take my photo?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|Please, Japanese people taking photos is the stereotype of my father's generation.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|I wish to sketch you in my overly-cute-for-a-woman-my-age Hello Kitty notebook.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Well, okay. But let me turn to the side a little. I'm told I'm easier to draw that way.}}

{{TH|After tapping on Kumiko's exclamation mark|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Before, the sadness of Springfield made me happy. But now I'm remembering happy times in Japan, which makes me sad.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|We have a word for that here -- homesick. Also, crazy. Maybe it would cheer you up if I showed you around?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|I would like that. Perhaps you take me to your place of business.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Guilty}}
{{TB|Uh… How about I show you the Kwik-E-Mart instead?}}

{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Cookies? Candy bars? Cup-o-soups? This store just sells things you could find in an American vending machine.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|I wish to see something more unusual and exotic, like the things you find in a Japanese vending machine!}}
{{Tapped Out Apu Icon}}
{{TB|We do have magazines.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon|Hopeful}}
{{TB|Do any of them have racy adult content yet look like they were drawn for children?}}
{{Tapped Out Apu Icon}}
{{TB|No.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Then again I am sad.}}

=== Pt. 3 ===
{{Table|
{{TH|After tapping on Kumiko's exclamation mark|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Still mopey, eh?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|Yes, a bit. Perhaps a traditional Japanese meal would cure my homesickness.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Great. So now I have to build that sushi restaurant?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|No, I was talking about going to Krusty Burger. There's one every block where I come from.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|I knew there was a reason Japanese obesity was on the rise. Count me in!}}

{{TH|After starting the jobs|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|It is just like the Krusty Burger in my own village. Only you can't get sake with your meal.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Surprised}}
{{TB|Sake? That's rice wine! Can you really get booze in fast food restaurants in Japan?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|I don't know. But it sounds like something that could be true.}}

{{TH|After completing Pt. 3|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Hey Kumiko! It looks like you finally cheered up, huh?}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|No, I am still sad. And the fact that you racistly cannot read emotion on Japanese faces makes me sadder.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|What?! No, I… the sun was in my eyes.}}
{{Tapped Out Kumiko Icon}}
{{TB|Perhaps I just miss my family… especially my short-sighted and controlling father. I wish he were here.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Well, that's one thing I've never said about MY father.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|But maybe you could have your father come visit?}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Or maybe you'll meet someone new who'll make you forget all about your sadness?}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|And maybe that will all happen this weekend, on a show I recently learned is still on TV.}}
