Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Fausto's exclamation mark
	Springfield, eh? It's a nice enough place, I guess. Excuse me, do you know where I can find a coffee shop around here?
	You can't ask me for directions. I'm Chief of Police Clancy Wiggum. You new folks moving in and taking our jobs don't even bother learning who's who around here, eh?

	And the least you could do is run a donut shop! We've only got seven or eight of those, that's not nearly enough!

	I apologize sir, he just gets really fired up when talking about donuts.
	You're free to go.
Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Fausto's exclamation mark
	Hey, how's it goin', pal? What brings you to my humble abode?
	I'm just here for an ice-cold beer. I heard good things about this place.
	Well, that's great because this joint of mine is a town staple. Everybody loves coming to Moe's.
	Is everything okay?
	Well, you see, it's no big deal but I thought you might be from the health department.
	The health department? No, no. I'm a fisherman.
	Phew! Thank goodness. This place has had a bit of a rat problem lately.
	Rat problem? No thank you. I think I'll go somewhere else for my drink.
Task: "Make Fausto Leave Moe's With a Beer To-Go". The job takes place at Moe's Tavern, Moe's Express, Joe's Tavern, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. If Moe is owned: Task: "Make Moe Capture Some of His Rat's Fausto". The job takes place at Moe's Tavern and takes 4 hours.
	May I assist you in finding something?
	I'm looking for the first issue of "Watchmen". Do you have it?
	I do have it, but I'll have to charge you a pretty penny as it is extremely rare.
	Hmm, how much?
	How about this? If I ask you a series of questions and you get them right, I'll give it to you for free.
	I'm game.
	Who drew the cover of "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns"?
	Lynn Varley.
	Correct! But that question was too easy. How about this one: What is the significance of the number 12 in "12-Cent Archie"?
	Trick question! The significance of that is merely that 12 cents were the cost of buying a comic...
	Final question, what writer and artist team created the award-winning series "Sandman"?
	Neil Gaiman and Sam Kieth.
	Correct? How is that possible?

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Fausto's exclamation mark
	Excuse me, Senhor?
	Si?
	You are new here, no?
	Si, my ship just pulled in a few days ago.
	I'd be happy to show you around.

	It's strange how there seem to be at least three or four times as many restaurants as houses.
	Si, the city is designed as if by a drunken child. But it's good! Many places to work, and you can't ever get thrown out!
	...ever?
	Ever!
	Maravilhas!
Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Fausto's exclamation mark
	Well, there is one bit of bad news.
	There always is.
	While you can't ever get thrown out, there are several jails and you can get thrown in there if there's nothing else for you to do.
	Of course there are. And since fishing season is over, I've got nothing to do for several months.
	Did my ears deceive me, or did ye say you're looking for work?
	Ai! Where'd you come from?
	I'd get used to people popping up when dramatically appropriate. It's quite common here.
	I've got a job for you. With the new Squidport expansion, we need people to advertise all of our new businesses and attractions.
	I'm not going to like where this ends up, am I?
Task: "Make Fausto Advertise the Squidport". The job takes 4 hours.
	Oh my God, did you see that guy walking around with the Squidport advertisement? Talk about gross!
	sigh

Pt. 5[edit]

	Well, I've finished embarrassing myself for the day. Time to relax.
	Now if only I knew what to do with myself. I've always just been the guy who flicked a knife all day.
Task: "Make Fausto Find a New Thing". The job takes 4 hours.
Quest reward: 200 and 20
