Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Randy's exclamation mark Kids, here are our oldest cider vats. These copper miracles were handmade by the Swartzwelder family over a hundred years ago. Interesting fact! Back in 1932 these vats were used by mill workers as shelter when the nearby Army base accidentally bombed Springfield. Trapped inside for hours, several workers became violently ill from the cider fumes. I'm gonna be sick... No! No! No! Not in the... ...vat. You had to use the vat. Sorry, sir. I feel better, though. That's wonderful. Before we continue with the tour, are there any questions? My hand has one! What's your question, young man? Why did I have a dream about a corncob bicycle? *holding a scrub brush* ...so, for the last part of the tour today, you'll be getting some hands-on experience with how we clean the vats! Task: "Make Randy Give Tours of the Mill". The job takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Youngsters Clean the Cider Vats" (x5). The jobs take place at Mt. Swartzwelder Historic Cider Mill and take 4 hours. Well, kids, thanks for visiting the mill. Please be sure to visit our gift shop on your way out for all your apple-themed needs! Come again! Oh, we will. Miss Hoover, it's wonderful to see youngsters taking an interest in our history. Well, it's so violent. That's the sugar in any history lesson! Ha! I don't think I've seen them all so quiet and attentive. Made me forget for a moment that I was a teacher. *sighs* One happy moment. Well, how about I show them around the aging cellar next week? Randy, you can tour their brains out. Nothing I love better than instilling the love of apples in the minds of the young. Nothing? Really? I want to die doing it. The apple mill tour? The apple mill tour. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Randy's exclamation mark Thank you all for coming! We look forward to your next visit! Oh, thank you for the tour, mister. It was a delight. Oh hello, little miss pot head. I didn't see you there. The name's Connie Appleseed. What a wonderful last name. So apple-y! Were you with the class that came through? Not exactly. See I kind of snuck onto their bus instead of hitchhiking all the way out here. Hitchhike? Oh, yes. Once I learned that there was an authentic cider mill nearby, I just had to make sure I saw it! Spoken like a true apple-head. Truly, where some see an apple cider factory, I see a cathedral. And where you see a cathedral, I see...an apple. Okay, you win. Task: "Make Randy Find a Kindred Spirit". The job takes place at Mt. Swartzwelder Historic Cider Mill and takes 4 hours. If Connie Appleseed is owned: Task: "Make Connie Appleseed Wonder if This Was a Good Idea". The job takes place at Mt. Swartzwelder Historic Cider Mill and takes 4 hours. So what apples are used for this cider? Oh, just the boring old Granny Smiths. Hey! How about we make our own from a variety? Invent our own recipe! Oh should we? Please say "we should"! *tossing apples* Here, catch! Start with Woodbine and Backwell Red... Got 'em! Now toss me some Yarlington Mill, Foxwhelp, and Fair Maid of Devon for a bit of edgy apple tang. You want edgy? I got edgy. Here's Zestar, Yates, and Ultra Gold! You go, girl! I'm apple to the core! I keep all doctors away. I'm more apple than grandma's pie! Can you tone it down a bit? Seriously... I get it. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Randy's exclamation mark Randy, I'm so glad that I came here. You're the first person in Springfield who loves apples as much as I do. I know. The last person I met who appreciated apples like I do was carted off to a hospital. I think he killed a few dozen people. Sounds like a Northern Crisp lover. *laughs* How did you know?! Connie, as a kin of the core, I just have to share my special reserve cider with you. What an honor! Oh, it is! I envy you. Task: "Make Randy Fetch His Special Reserve Cider". The job takes place at Mt. Swartzwelder Historic Cider Mill and takes 4 hours. If Connie Appleseed is owned: Task: "Make Connie Appleseed Evaluate the Cider". The job takes place at Mt. Swartzwelder Historic Cider Mill and takes 4 hours. Here you go. Give this a try. *sniffs* Oh my. *sips* I'm tasting...altitude. Altitude. Really? With notes of mountain air. Oh, get out of here. My guess? Arlet. You devil! How did you guess? Simple deduction. Arlet is a Swiss grown variety. Alpine growing conditions. But what sealed the deal was the hint of cowbell. *raises glass* A toast to apples! Um...yeah. Could you just toast it yourself? What's the deal? Yeah, it's a little awkward but...I never consume apples or apple products. Well, how do you like them apples? Truth is...I don't. ... Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Randy's exclamation mark Randy, I'm totally confused. You seem to be the most apple-smitten man I've ever met, yet you don't like apples? Oh no! I love everything about them. Their smell! Color! Shape! Even their sound! Sound? The sound of other people eating them. That's the key. Other people can eat them but I can't stand their flavor. It's a shame I will carry to my grave. By the way, I'm going to be buried in an orchard. So am I. But one thing I can never bury is my shame. Here I am professing my apple love to others through my tours, my apple-centered music and my apple-themed mystery novels. And all the while I harbor a deep dark secret. I just wish I could get myself to eat one apple. *offers apple* You can! This is a Ralls Janet I've been saving. Until you eat it, I vow I will stop all my apple activities. Connie Appleseed! The world needs your random planting! Then do it. Not for me or yourself. Eat the apple for the sake of apples everywhere. ... Task: "Make Randy Attempt to Enjoy Apples". The job takes 4 hours. There. Done. But thank you for forcing me to overcome my fear. I knew you could do it. I feel sick...with pride...and nausea. Embrace that feeling! You earned it. Now, if there's nothing else I can do... One thing. Name it. I'm gonna need your pan. Quest reward: 200 and 20
