{{Tapped Out Eddie Icon}}
{{TB|Mr. Simpson? We'd like to question you about a local “brown house” which seems to be the center of some minor felonies.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|It certainly has!}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|That's why I came over to investigate. The door was wide open, the TV was already on, and the wifi was streaming real smooth.}}
{{Tapped Out Eddie Icon}}
{{TB|What about the fridge being raided, the beer cans strewn all over, and the wall-to-wall carpeting you pulled off the floor to use as a blanket.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|I get cold when I watch TV drunk.}}
{{THT|'''Task:''' "Make Homer Go in for Questioning". The task takes place at the [[Police Station]] and takes 8 hours.|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Lou Icon}}
{{TB|So after thirty seconds, Homer not only implicated himself, but just about everyone else in town.}}
{{Tapped Out Lou Icon}}
{{TB|That brown house is a locus of break-ins, vandalism, and theft.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|File it under “boring,” Lou… just like your use of the word “locus.”}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|We won’t have to do all the other arrests if we can just solve some big, flashy crimes. And that’ll still placate Quimby.}}
{{Tapped Out Lou Icon}}
{{TB|You get to use “placate,” but I can’t use “locus”?}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|I have the gravitas to pull it off. Now catch me a “Dexter” so we can “Shawshank” him!}}

{{TB|Everyone in Springfield is involved in some kind of petty crime.}}
{{Tapped Out Eddie Icon}}
{{TB|Yeah, but Chief says we need to find something big -- some super-dangerous criminal.}}
{{Tapped Out Lou Icon}}
{{TB|Uh… my gun’s been jammed for a couple of years.}}
{{Tapped Out Eddie Icon}}
{{TB|I don’t even know where mine is. Let’s go get a jaywalker or two.}}

{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|There’s no “dramatic surge,” Kent.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|What happened is I switched our coffee from decaf to regular. It gave some of our officers the jitters, but they're moving a lot faster.}}
{{Tapped Out Brockman Icon}}
{{TB|But what about all the law-abiding citizens being arrested for seemingly meaningless violations?}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|Kent, you can’t call any law meaningless! We don’t rank laws. A kidnapping is no more important than a broken taillight.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|Actually, can I change that last thing I said}}
{{Tapped Out Brockman Icon}}
{{TB|We’re live.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|Nuts. I’m very tired, Kent. I think my coffee high wore off.}}

{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|Got a stack of papers on you, huh, Snake? What are they, rolling papers, or contracts to take out hits?}}
{{Tapped Out Snake Icon}}
{{TB|Dude, no. They’re just blank insurance policies.}}
{{Tapped Out Snake Icon}}
{{TB|I’m a legitimate life insurance salesman now.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|I’ve never been able to pass a life insurance physical. I’ve got a touch of diabetes. And gout.}}
{{Tapped Out Wiggum Icon}}
{{TB|Oh, and I’m a policeman who’s been shot five times. All right, on your way!}}
