It's Chester Lampwick, the original creator of Itchy the Lucky Mouse in 1919. Which would make him old enough to be... ...dead? That's what I should be! But somehow I ain't! There, there.

Pt. 2

After tapping on Lampwick's exclamation mark When I last was in Springfield, I had me a legally mandated fortune and fingers on my gloves. Now I'm just another hobo with a rocket car. If it weren't for this explosion changing all the rules, I'd have walked off into the cush life of a billionaire, dancing the hula in crystal houses with Rockefellers and Araby sheiks. Did you ever do any of those strange words? Hey, you don't know the direction a night can head in! Possibilities abound! You returned not just as an impoverished vagabond. You're an esteemed contributor to the legacy of a great cartoon show—Itchy & Scratchy! And I know how to prove it. Aw, little girl, it's nice of you to rebuild my solid gold house. Now if you can just put it by the water... No, better than any material possession. I'll help you experience adoration in the eyes of your young fans. We'll have a signing party at our house for all the kids in town! Alright. But tell your friends to keep their sticky paws off my bindle. I hate a gunky bindle. Task: "Make Lampwick Sign Autographs". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 10 hours. Task: "Make Children Visit Lampwick" (x4). The jobs take place at the Simpson House and take 5 hours. After starting the jobs Children of Springfield, meet the silly-named genius Chester Lampwick! The man you didn't know you should admire but should! *Ahem...yes.* Bindle off limits. What's a bindle? You're holding a phone. Look it up. After completing the tasks No, the violence is a metaphor! It represents all the different objects that you can stab in people's eyes. You mollycoddled nollywads don't get the subtlety of my work one drop! Mr. Lampwick, I don't think that's what a metaphor is— Pah! Why try to speak to the masses when everyone's a nincompoop. Being a valued member of a community is worthless. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3

After tapping on Lampwick's exclamation mark What am I doing back in this place? I know I was never meant to be more than a marginal, one-off, side character. Had me a story, and dejabbers, it was a good one! Felt like a hero then. Now I'm just another oddball. Might as well be going up to strangers, shouting "Ooggitty boogitty!" Ooggitty boogitty! That's it! I can be something better than a hero. A weirdo who irritates people into getting what he wants. Task: "Reach Level 7 and Build Krusty Burger". Task: "Make Lampwick Annoy Staff and Patrons". The job takes place at a Krusty Burger and takes 2 hours. After starting the job May I take your order, Mr. Penniless Vagrant? Yeah, I'll have an ice cold soda, hold the soda, hold the ice, and fill the cup with loose change. After finishing the task Here are seven Krusty Burgers, three Meat-Flavored Sandwiches, and two The Cloggers. Take them and go! Not sure what all this free food is going to do for this abscess in my arm pit, but if that's what you want, young man, that's what I'll do. Heh heh. Chester J., you sly, silver marmoset. Bless your pus-filled body. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4

After tapping on Lampwick's exclamation mark Good to see my panhandling tricks are as trusty as ever. Time to remake the Lampwick fortune the old-fashioned way: taking it from other people You shouldn't get money by begging. This is America. Find a job, go to work, and duck your responsibilities while you collect paychecks you don't deserve, like the rest of us. You think this is the life I wanted? If I had my druthers, I'd be an internationally celebrated cartoonist, or I'd live under a tree made of diamonds, whose nuts are smaller diamonds I could sell above market price. No, I didn't get to choose my fate. I just gotta play the role I was assigned, and make the best of it. Which means escaping my role and changing my fate! Soon, this cat will once again be a top dog. So you dream of being the opposite of a hobo. What would that be exactly... an "oboh"? That's not the opposite of hobo, ya crackbrained cretin. The opposite of a word is that word backwards AND upside down. I'm going to be an "oqoy". Wanna know how to pronounce "oqoy"? It's "LAMPWICK!" Task: "Make Lampwick Rely on the Generosity of Others". The job takes 24 hours. All that time shaking my hand can, and all I've got is a single, lousy dollar? The people in this town are the opposite of good! They're "poo6"! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5

After tapping on Lampwick's exclamation mark I can still Vanderbilt my way back to the top. All I need to do is invest this in the hobo's stock market. One lotto Scratch-R, my snake-charming friend. Thank you for the stereotype I am not thankful for. Would you like a regular Scratch-R or the high-roller Golden Scratch-R, reserved for only the best...of whoever is willing to pay for it? Give me the fancy one. I've got a feeling that on this day Chester J. can't lose! Task: "Make Lampwick Buy a Golden Scratch-R". The job takes place at a Kwik-E-Mart and takes 60 minutes. Donuts?! That's what I get for my buck? What nob-headed ninnies would want donuts instead of actual money? You should show more respect for the power of the donut. They are the most powerful currency of all. They are how you are even here! Consarnable pastries! If these garbage rings are how I got here, I'd rather have garbage. Quest reward: 6 and 10
