Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Mr. Burns' exclamation mark Smithers! There's an interloper at my front door! The name is Lord Thistlewick Flanders. I make a point of visiting like-minded plutocrats when I travel, and your manor looks to be the largest in Springfield. I can't abide visitors. Release the hounds! Smithers, what on earth are the hounds doing?! They appear to be nuzzling Lord Thistlewick, sir. Your hounds are excellent judges of character. They're unwilling to attack someone of my high breeding. Task: "Make Lord Thistlewick Flanders Pet Burns' Hounds". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 4 hours. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Mr. Burns' exclamation mark I say, Monty, while I'm here, I think you and I should co-host a posh fundraising gala for my favorite charity, the Bootstrap Project. But my doctor says even a slight bit of fundraising could kill me. Who does this Bootstrap Project benefit, anyway? Why, you and I, of course. All profits split evenly between us. Lord Thistlewick, I like the cut of your jib. Task: "Make Burns Host a Posh Charity Event". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 8 hours. Task: "Make Lord Thistlewick Flanders Attend Posh Charity Event". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 8 hours. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Lord Thistlewick Flanders' exclamation mark Our fundraiser was a smashing success! What say we take all the money we earned and go shopping? Shopping for what? Yachts, perhaps? Private jets? Even better: Politicians! Task: "Make Lord Thistlewick Flanders Bribe Quimby". The job takes place at the Town Hall, Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 60 minutes. It's-ah been an honor doing business with you, Lord Thistlewick. Well, Monty, what do I do with him now that I've bought him? That's up to you. Maybe draft a tax loophole for him to pass? I think I'll just ask him to strut about and cluck like a chicken. Er-ah, Rhode Island Red or Delaware Blue Hen? Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Lord Thistlewick Flanders' exclamation mark There's nothing a gentleman like myself enjoys so much as hunting for exotic game. I think I'll bag one of those koalas. A marsupial is the one kind of head I don't yet have on my wall. I'm leaning toward that black rhinoceros. They'll be extinct soon, so the window for hunting one is running out. Gadzooks! I've just spotted an even better quarry: a giant panda! Tally-ho! Task: "Make Lord Thistlewick Flanders Load His Blunderbuss". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 4 hours. Uhh... I don't think you guys are allowed to hunt the animals here at the Springfield Zoo. This is an outrage! I demand to speak to your manager! I told you, Monty, we should have bought the zoo first. Quite. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Lord Thistlewick Flanders' exclamation mark So, Lord Thistlewick, what do you think of my nuclear plant? I'm a coal plant man, myself. I like my workers to get visibly dirty from their labors so I know to look down my nose on them in public. Haven't you heard of the Industrial Revolution currently underway? Coal has no place in these modern times, you backwards dinosaur! Backwards dinosaur?! Sir, you've impugned my honor! I demand satisfaction. Pistols at dawn! Task: "Make Lord Thistlewick Flanders Slap Mr. Burns With a White Glove". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 8 hours. Task: "Make Mr. Burns Prepare for the Duel". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 8 hours. Smithers, of course it will be you doing the actual dueling. And my distant relative Nedward here will stand in for me. Now hold on, Lord Thistlewick. I've tried to be a good host during your visit, but asking me to die for you seems... well, just a tad unreasonable. I'd also prefer not to die for you, sir. *sigh* It would seem we can still agree on one thing, Lord Thistlewick: They don't make toadies like they used to. Quite. Quest reward: 200 and 20

Behind the Laughter[edit]

The quest name is a reference to the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding.
