Dialogue[edit]

After starting the update
Blue-Haired Lawyer As you can see here, Mr. Burns, your power plant is in the red.
Mr. Burns - Angry Cancel Disney+! I don't know why I ever subscribed — my only streaming device is a ticker tape machine.
Mr. Burns The image resolution is decidedly meh, and every time I watch a movie I'm crushed beneath a mountain of paper!
Blue-Haired Lawyer We agree that cancelling Disney+ is a prudent way to save eight dollars per month, but the plant will still be many, many millions of dollars in the red.
Mr. Burns We can pay our other bills with BiteCoin.
Smithers I didn't know you dabbled in cryptocurrency, sir.
Mr. Burns In what now? I mean: set the hounds on the bill collectors.
Smithers Ah, I see. BITE Coin. I'm sure they'd be able to evade them quite easily.
Mr. Burns - Thinking Are you saying they have some sort of dodge-coin? Perhaps if we used some kind of tether...
Smithers Maybe we should look at some other strategies for improving worker productivity, sir.
Mr. Burns - Happy You're right! The greedy workers are the problem.
Mr. Burns Let's move the plant somewhere where we'll be given a free hand by a corrupt government and a gullible population manipulated by appeals to prejudice.
Smithers We already did that, sir. That's why we moved here from North Korea.
Mr. Burns When you're treating your workers even worse than the commies, you know you've done your part!
Smithers Since we've maxed-out oppression, maybe we could try to toggle a few other levers, sir. Such as worker satisfaction and motivation.
Mr. Burns - Annoyed Ew, gross. You said toggle.
Smithers If we want to compete for today's values-driven workforce...
Mr. Burns Smithers, learn to read the room, will you? Now, quickly, to the basement! I've got just the thing to solve our financial problems.
Task: "Make Burns Head to the Basement". The job takes place at the Cooling Towers, Control Building, or a Visitable Home and takes 6 seconds.
If Smithers is owned: Task: "Make Smithers Learn to Read the Room". The job takes place at the Cooling Towers, Control Building, or a Visitable Home and takes 6 seconds.
Smithers - Surprised The Alternate Universe Computer? But sir, it hasn't been tested!
Mr. Burns We're going back to the golden days, before things had to be tested.
Mr. Burns What decade should we pick? I suppose you'd opt for the Gay Nineties!
Smithers It just meant "lively" or "high-spirited" then, sir.
Mr. Burns I knew that. I didn't know you knew.
Mr. Burns - Diabolical We might as well go straight to the Great Depression of the 1930s, when people were at their most desperate for work.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10
