Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After starting the update Lisa! Betcha you can't tell me, in five paragraphs, your favorite thesis and supporting statements about an American President? You're trying to get me to write a school essay for you, aren't you? Essay writing is hard for me, Lisa. I'm not like you. You know... boring. Best be on your way to the library, brother. The Dewey decimal system is a tough nut to crack. I'd rather die! Task: "Make Bart Plan a "Life Hack" for Writing an Essay". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After completing Pt. 1 I've got it! Why read about the Presidents, when I can go speak to them myself? You mean... use Dad's toaster to travel back in time and collect America's greatest leaders? That's actually... kind of... brilliant! Be back soon. Just need to set this thing to the date of America's founding -- One million B.C. Try 1789. But wait... something's nagging at me. The Fourth of July... U.S. Presidents... augh, what is it? Don't know, don't care. Like I said -- you're boring. Bye! Task: "Make Bart Travel to the Past to Collect Presidents". The job takes place at Homer's Workbench and takes 6 seconds. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After completing Pt. 2 That was quick. Several months from my point of view. I'm eleven now, by the way. I figured out what was bothering me. Each year at this time, a different ex-President appears in Springfield. Lincoln, Washington, Roosevelt, Nixon. And now we know why. YOU brought them all here. With Dad's toaster. It IS pretty hard to get the return year right when your only time machine control is a "doneness" knob. If you'll excuse me, I want to freshen up for whichever ex-Prez is coming this year! Task: "Make Bart Wait for Presidents to Arrive". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds. Task: "Make Lisa Dress to Impress Presidents". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds. Who's coming this year, Bart? Mike. President Mike? Plans are nothing, planning is everything! Oh... "Ike". Not "Mike", dummy. As in "I like Ike". Well, so far Cue Ball hasn't written word one of my essay. You can like Ike all you want. I am NOT a fan. Quest reward: 200 and 20
