Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark Skinny Palmer? Marbles Le Marquez? What are you doing here at my house? You're looking slick, Downbeat. Ugh, can we rethink my jazz name? I really think I'm more fitting of a name like— Nope. Jazz names don't change. You're Downbeat for life. *sigh* Okay...Downbeat it is. Cheer up, Downbeat. Is Tic Tock around? Bart! Your jazz friends want you to come out and play! What's up, Daddy-Os? Tic Tock, the Skinny Palmer Trio is at a crossroads. We've never drawn crowds like when we had Tic Tock Simpson tappin' the rat-a-tats and the clickety-clacks. Don't forget the skibbity-scats. You see? We're off our game. I even forgot the skibbity-scats. Though more specifically we are out of what I like to call jazz fuel. Mary Jane? No, money! I'm picking up shifts disinfecting shoes at the Bowlarama, and let me tell you that place is a jazz funeral — but less fun. Hmm, it's gonna be tough to fit you guys into my schedule, but being famous was pretty awesome... Please, Bart. Okay, I'll rejoin the band. On one condition, I get to decide where we go to lunch. You only ever want Krusty Burger...and I'm a vegetarian. I keep telling you, fries are a food group. Task: "Make Tic Tock Simpson Sign Autographs for the Ladies". The job takes 4 hours. So, I know how Lisa and I got our jazz names, but what about you guys? Oh, me? They call me "Skinny" because my metabolism is faster than "Jeep's Blues" played double-time on the jump. Alright, I'm gonna assume that's fast because I don't want to look it up. What about you, Marbles? I would prefer not to say. He accidentally thought a marble was a grape and the rest is history. That's why my teeth look like this. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark Ugh, guys I'm trying, but ever since I got carpal tunnel playing "Conflict of Enemies", I haven't been able to drum the same. Oh, you'll be fine — carpal tunnel is no big deal. I played for sixty-three hours straight. Now my arm is blue and stiff enough to crack walnuts. *cracks a walnut* Well what about surgery? How much would it cost to fix it? They don't take insurance for videogame-related injuries, so the surgery's $78,000. I guess we'll just have to do a benefit concert. A benefit concert?! Outta sight! *down low* In the pocket! No! Guys, stop. Enough with the benefit concerts. We already did that, remember? And I gave all the money to Lisa. So what do we do? It sounds too easy, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to just ask her... Task: "Make Tic Tock Simpson Ask Lisa for the Money". The job takes place at the Simpson House or a Brown House and takes 60 minutes. Bart, there is no more money. The bridge has been repaired and I spent the extra on making it do that thing where it lifts up to let boats pass. Whoa, I love when bridges do that! I never thought you'd actually use the money to save the bridge. I thought you were going to just put it toward your college fund. $50,000 tuition to go to college online? No thanks. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark Sorry, guys. I talked to Downbeat, but she already spent the money. Man, that girl is always bringin' us down. But it's okay, because look at this ad I just discovered in the newspaper. Bionic prosthetics? And they're free as long as you agree to take part in their medical study and sign a two hundred and sixteen page waiver of liability! Tic Tock, you'll get your arm back and you'll end up being an even better drummer. Never before have I loved a plan as much as this one! Well, besides the time we tricked Milhouse into putting his finger in that pencil sharpener. And I didn't even get to get a cool bionic finger out of it. Task: "Make Tic Tock Simpson Get a Bionic Arm". The job takes place at Springfield General Hospital, Hibbert Family Practice, or a Brown House and takes 6 hours. And Bart, that's where we'll make a deep incision and attach the bionic arm to the nerve cluster. Cool! Can I get a laser on it? Or an attachment that shoots out ninja stars?! *chuckles* All in due time, Bart. I just need a signature on this form from one of your parents. Okay, signed. Where'd you come from? Oh, I was just stopping by. Artery got clogged again so they did one of those routine open-heart oil changes on me. None of that was routine. Well, good luck with the robo-arm. I'm off to get my routine bucket of chicken and barrel of beer. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark This new bionic arm is awesome! A little hard to control though. Yeah, you ripped out my car door and nearly killed my cat when you petted him. Let's see how this Terminator arm does on the hi-hat. Real quick though, could you open this jar of pickles for me? These lil' baby dills been callin' my name, but the jar just won't give. *jar shatters* You must have loosened it. Task: "Make Tic Tock Simpson Do Some Bionic Drumming". The job takes 60 minutes. Whoa, Tic Tock. You're rocking those drums harder than that verbally abused kid in "Whiplash"! With that bionic arm going, I think I feel a jazz name change comin'. How does "Iron Jam" sound? I have no control over the arm! Help! It won't stop! *drum smashes* Run! That arm thinks everything's a drum! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark Doc, you gotta get this thing off me. It's got a mind of its own! *chuckles* Oh, I should hope so. It sure wouldn't be very useful in our study on bionic artificial intelligence if it didn't. You did read the paperwork? Ahhhh! My hand keeps trying to steal your syringe off you and kill me with it! *scribbling notes* Wants to kill patient...knows what a syringe is...fascinating stuff. Task: "Make Tic Tock Simpson Un-Get a Bionic Arm". The job takes place at Springfield General Hospital, Hibbert Family Practice, or a Brown House and takes 6 hours. Well, some things just don't work out. But I think we've learned a good lesson here. I don't think I've learned anything. Always keep yourself at arm's length from a bionic arm. Physically and figuratively. Right on. Indubitably. In the pocket. Boogie Woogie. You really need to have the last word don't ya? Ab-so-lute-ly! Quest reward: 200 and 20

Behind the Laughter[edit]

The quest name is a reference to the TV series The Bionic Woman.
