Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on The Ghost of Christmas Past's exclamation mark Mr. Burns, you will come with me! We shall travel through your past, revealing the error of your ways! Is it Christmas again? It is! Despair! Oh, desp-- Every year I tell you I have no regrets, yet you persist. Smithers! Fetch the vacuum cleaner! You have exploited the poor, trampled upon your loyal employees, and turned your back on love! I thought you were here to teach me a lesson, not rattle off a list of my proudest achievements. Uhhh... YES? Well, that's all I've got, really... Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Past Try to Win an Argument". The job takes place at Burns Manor or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. Didn't you once tear down an orphanage to build a for-profit retirement community? One group was abandoned by their parents, the other by their children. It's a wash in the end, isn't it? Come on. Open up! Everyone has regrets. Even you? Well, no. At least... I don't think I'm allowed to talk about them... Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on The Ghost of Christmas Past's exclamation mark I suppose I DO regret that no one has ever asked me what I regret. That's weak sauce. Spill the beans! Give us something juicy, phantom! Geez... I don't know... I'm drawing a blank here. Hypocrite! "Everyone has regrets", you say. "Atone for your sins", you whine. Practice what you preach! I'm trying. I really am. See, when you become a ghost, there's this sort of veil that descends between you and your past, and-- Oh, is this the part where you explain the rules of the spirit world? Well, guess what? I don't care! No one cares! Okay, okay. Let me think, here... Task: "Make The Ghost of Christmas Past Dwell on the Past". The job takes 4 hours. I've revisited my entire existence. There's nothing I regret. If you have no regrets, then perhaps you've never really lived, eh? Whoa. Whoa, that's heavy. Hey! It's never too late to do something you'll regret. Rogues night out! Smithers, get the oxygen tank and the thousand dollar bills. Let's raise hell! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on The Ghost of Christmas Past's exclamation mark What shall we do first? Haunt a graveyard? Try on new lengths of chain? None of your undead nonsense for us. Tonight, we LIVE. Smithers, what is the worst, most disreputable place in town? Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Past Visit Moe's". The job takes place at Moe's Tavern or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. Another round? *hic* Smithers, what is this swill you gave me? It's utterly revolting. They call it "beer", sir. And I think you've had enough. A second shot glass won't kill me... *snore* Poor, adorable Mr. Burns. Wait here, I'll bring the car around. *ominous laugh* At last, Montgomery, we are alone. Now, to my true purpose! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on The Ghost of Christmas Past's exclamation mark Psst! Wake up, Montgomery! We've business to attend to. *hic* I like business... Of course you do. Now, I just need your signature on a few documents... First, this generous donation to an environmental charity... ...Next, this letter endorsing a Democratic candidate for office... ...And finally, on this agreement to house and care for one hundred orphans... Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Past Give Mr. Burns Regrets". The job takes place at Moe's Tavern or a Brown House and takes 8 hours. You! What have you done to Mr. Burns?! Only given him something to regret. At long last... Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on The Ghost of Christmas Past's exclamation mark You said one hasn't really lived until one has regrets. Tomorrow, Mr. Burns will feel particularly alive... How could you? How could you destroy this sweet, evil man's innocence?! I'll get you for this! You lay one hand on me and you'll know what regrets truly are! You don't scare me, you old burial shroud! Oh no? What about this? Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Past Use His Ominous Voice". The job takes 12 hours. There. I think the matter is settled. Don't you? *teeth chattering* I have stared into perdition, and it stared back... it stared back... it stared back... Tell Mr. Burns I'll be back next Christmas to remind him of what happened here tonight. Oh, and a miserable Christmas to you both. *cackles ominously* Quest reward: 200 and 20
