Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Roberto Dinero's exclamation mark
	Mr. Dinero, are you seriously suggesting your fighting robot client's injury was not sustained in a robot fight, but in a traffic accident?
	Your honor, it's not a suggestion — my client WAS injured while crossing a Springfield street.
	But...his client, Carnage Destructicus, at the time of the said "accident" was engaged in an epic clash with several other gigantic robots. It was live on the news!
	And just for clarity purposes, where did this epic showdown take place?
	I don't see how that's relevant to the case...
	Well, I'd like to know!
	The fight occurred on a crosswalk.
	Well, technically, yes. However, again I don't see how that's germane to the...
	Your Honor, that school bus went through a red light and hit my client while he was crossing the street. Sure, he was fighting against other evil robots while crossing the street. But the fact-of-the-matter is: his mechanical feet were within the boundaries of the crosswalk and it was indeed the pedestrian's turn to cross the road.
	Those are all good points.
	Considering this unusual circumstance, I find myself favoring the plaintiff, Carnage Destructicus, and awarding him damages amounting to $500,000 for the injuries he sustained by the reckless driving of one Otto Mann of Springfield Elementary.
	Skin-NER! That money is coming out of your school's budget!
	Ott-o! That money is coming out of your salary!
	Skinner...you can't take money out of his salary. That would be highly illegal.
	Roberto, you did it! Outstanding! In my quest to obliterate humans, I never thought I'd feel such regard for the human lawyer. I am most impressed by your navigation of the slow but powerful gears of the American legal system.
	Thanks, Mr. Destructicus... Now, if you'll excuse me, I must extend my services to other potential 'street fighters'.
	But aren't you already representing my fellow mechanized mates?
	Indeed, but a lawyer's job is never done — especially when robot-induced chaos is just another Thursday.
Task: "Make Roberto Dinero Try to Find New Clients". The job takes 4 hours. If Carnage Destructicus is owned: Task: "Make Carnage Destructicus Count His Money". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours.
	Mr. Dinero, are you orchestrating accidents just to drum up business for your shady law practice?
	What? Of course not, young lady. I'm merely practicing my right to...um, enhance the environment artistically. tosses banana peel onto sidewalk
	You're LITTERING! In Springfield, that's like our third worst environmental crime, right after our toxic waste-filled river and our tire fire that never stops burning!
	Eh, littering, schmittering. It's small potatoes. Or should I say, small banana peels. laughs
	That's it! Your cavalier attitude towards our town and its environmental and safety laws is appalling. I'm taking you to court, Mr. Dinero!
	chuckling A court battle with an eight-year-old? Don't you have to get your parents' permission to sue me?
	Probably. But for $5 Bart will sign anything with Homer's signature.
	$10.
	What? Since when?
	Hey don't blame me, blame inflation.
	Fine, here's $10.
	Brace yourself, Mr. Dinero, because you're about to learn a lesson in civic responsibility.
Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Roberto Dinero's exclamation mark
	Your honor, we will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant willfully littered on the street. And I'm not just talking about any old litter. We're dealing with the holy trinity of dangerous trash here: a banana peel, a bucket of marbles, and a truckload of tiny toy cars.
	Really? A littering case? If I had known this was on my docket I would have extended my vacation in Costa Rica.
	Judge Snyder, I've taken the case pro bono. And I never do that.
	Your honor, this so-called lawyer has had a vendetta against me ever since I wiped the floor with him earlier today in a separate case.
	Fine, let's just hurry it up. If my wife gets home before me, I lose custody of the remote control for the night. And I can't suffer through another "Real Housewives of Potomac Reunion".
Task: "Make Roberto Dinero Go to Trial". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. If Blue-Haired Lawyer is owned: Task: "Make Blue Haired Lawyer Present Arguments". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Lisa Glare at Roberto Dinero". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. If Judge Snyder is owned: Task: "Make Judge Snyder Check His Watch". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours.
	Your honor, this whole trial is a sham. The plaintiff doesn't have a single witness to her name.
	Oh, really?
	Permission to call our surprise witness, your honor.
	Surprise witness? No one told me about this.
	If we had, it wouldn't have been a surprise.
	Okay, everyone quickly hide in the court room.
	Ugh, I hate surprise parties...
	Homer, it's a surprise witness. This is your civic duty!
	And silence your cell phones and turn off the lights!
	phone rings Sorry!
Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Roberto Dinero's exclamation mark
	Bailiff, please bring the surprise witness.
	Shh...everyone quiet, quiet...
	Hello...? It's so dark. Is this like a courtroom rave?
	Surprise!
	Surprise.
	Whoa! How'd you all know it was my birthday?
	Otto? You're their surprise witness?
	Sorry, Mr. Dinero. That Lisa girl is scary and convincing. But me and my raccoon, Randy, saw everything. Well, he saw everything and told me about it.
	So, really your star witness is a raccoon named Randy?! Yeah, I'm not too worried.
Task: "Make Roberto Dinero Badger the Witness". The job takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Lisa Chuckle". The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours.
	Objection, your honor.
	Your witness just attacked ME, so I think I should be the one objecting.
	Mr. Dinero is clearly raccooning the witness.
	That's not a real thing!
	I've heard enough. I rule in favor of the plaintiff.
	But I didn't even present my arguments!
	Yes, but the witness is currently eating banana peels from your briefcase.
	eating banana peels
	Argh!
	I hope you learned your lesson, Mr. Dinero.
	Yes, I learned that I need to buy a lock for my briefcase.
Quest reward: 200 and 20
