Dialogue

Pt. 1

After tapping on H.P. Lovecraft's exclamation mark H.P.! Thanks for coming in, babe. I only came because I've heard the movie business is insane and full of lunatics. I love it! Or should I say, I Lovecraft it! No, don't say that. H.P., you're one of the great, twisted minds in entertainment. The movie business needs you! I detest moving pictures. Print is my preferred medium. Besides, my works are all in the public domain. There's nothing stopping you from making "Call of Cthulhu 2: Redial". Wait, wait! Let me write that down. What was that again? If Polystar Executive is owned: Task: "Make Polystar Executive Pitch Lovecraft on Pitching". The job takes place at Polystar Pictures, Krustylu Studios, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Lovecraft Get Pitched on Pitching".

Pt. 2

After tapping on H.P. Lovecraft's exclamation mark You're right. I AM a creative genius, and I need to share my gift with the world! Remember, it takes an executive's meddling for creativity to truly become genius. Get this: an amateur astronomer observes the night sky when he sees…strangely colored lights! Uh-huh. And? And he goes insane! That's not a story! There's no hero's journey, no romance, no villain… Uh…the astronomer turns from the stars, travels to Polystar Pictures, makes love to the film executive's fiancée, and then runs over the executive using the Polystar tram. Now we've got a story! Task: "Make Lovecraft Pitch Already-Done Ideas". The job takes 4 hours. If Polystar Executive is owned: Task: "Make Polystar Executive Shoot Down Already-Done Ideas". The job takes place at Polystar Pictures, Krustylu Studios, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. A small, New England town is terrorized by…a shark! That's Steven Spielberg's "Jaws". What if it was a Mid-Atlantic town? I'm listening… And the shark— Has a flame thrower! And the flame-throwing shark battles a giant ape who has a really hot girlfriend! Um, okay. I guess so? Money! Ugh, what have I become? Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3

After tapping on H.P. Lovecraft's exclamation mark I have to get away from that studio fool. Being around him has made me a shell of my creative self! "Shell"…hmm. Maybe a giant crab…fights crime…and has a hot girlfriend! Argh, that's terrible! That exec has given me horror writer's block! Task: "Make Lovecraft Try to Get New Ideas". The job takes 4 hours. My walk around Springfield gave me a great new idea: a hapless dolt is irradiated in an accident, and turned into— Put a pin in it, H.P. I'm watching this breaking news story. We take you live to the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, where Homer Simpson has been irradiated into a glowing monstrosity. RAAAARH! Wow, that's crazy! Anyway, you were saying? Never mind. A real hapless dolt just stole my idea. Quest reward: 200 and 20
