Dialogue

Pt. 1

After completing Game of Games Pt. 5 Dad, what are you doing at E4? I’m here at this giant convention to have quality time with you. There’s nothing on God’s earth that could get me to spend time with you. The Detonator is missing, and we need a new adult chaperone. Daddy! I’m so glad you came. Let’s hold hands! Task: "Collect Red Crystals" (x150). Task: "Make Homer Fall Asleep During Practice". The job takes place at the Android's Dungeon or a Brown House and takes 4 hours. The Evergreen Terrors got an adult chaperone? How do they keep getting so lucky?! *LOUD BELCH* Well, not that lucky. No matter. I'll just have to beat them in the arena. Are you monologuing to yourself again? Yes! Quit interrupting! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1 This is it, ladies and gentlemen. The match no one was waiting for, and only the players' parents care about. It's the Evergreen Terrors vs. the Superfriends Club. In this reporter’s humble opinion, it’s the battle of the century. Hey, I’m the only one who’s allowed to have humble opinions! Task: "Collect Red Crystals" (x150). Task: "Reach Level 8 and Build Van Houten House". Task: "Make Evergreen Terrors Compete in Halfmonth" (x3). The jobs take place at the Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage and take 4 hours. Nelson, fall back -- you're headed into a trap! I never retreat! Advance or die! And… Nelson’s dead. If you need me, I’ll be throwing rocks at ducks. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Crowd of Gamers

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2 After a stunning display of dumb luck, the Evergreen Terrors have the upper hand. Close formation everyone. We need to push them back. No one defeats the Superfriends. You’re all dead! Except Lisa. Um, Lisa, after the battle, you want to watch ViewTube videos? Well, I don’t see why not. Task: "Collect Red Crystals" (x400). Task: "Reach Level 12 and Place Bart's Treehouse". Task: "Make Bart Save Milhouse". The job takes place at the Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage and takes 4 hours. Bart! I’m under major attack here! I need back-up. No, help me! I’m low on health, in the game and real life. Bart, I’m your best fighter! Save me first, or you just lost yourself an invitation to my birthday party. And my dad is Krusty -- I’m talking Krusty Burger VIP party. That’s what’s on the line?! Stand by Sophie, Milhouse to the rescue! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Grief Counselor

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 The Evergreen Terrors have been torn in two by rivalry, dissension and betrayal. This match has all the makings of a Young Adult novel. Or any ordinary day at Channel Six News. Your team is falling apart, Bart. And once I get my laser buzzsaw going, you will be too. Task: "Collect Red Crystals" (x400). Task: "Make Lisa Sacrifice Herself". The job takes place at the Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage and takes 4 hours. Lisa, I think Report Card has a crush on you. You can use that against him. How? You can power-up Milhouse with jealousy. Quest reward: 100 and 10 General Splattin'

Pt. 5

After completing Pt. 4 I’m the only nerd who gets to be hopelessly sweet on Lisa. Die, Report Card, die! And… Milhouse is dead. Report Card! Let’s finish this. You and me, mano a dweebo. Illogical. There are five of us. Statistics favor a simultaneous joint attack. Unfortunately, statistics don’t impress the girl. Actually, they impress *this* girl. Oh, shut up! Task: "Collect Red Crystals" (x400). Task: "Make Bart Have a Showdown". The job takes place at the Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage and takes 4 hours. If Report Card is owned: Task: "Make Report Card Have a Showdown". The job takes place at the Conflict of Enemies Indoor Stage and takes 4 hours. *screams* I'm running low on health! Lisa, this kill of your brother is dedicated to you. Appreciate it. Don’t celebrate too early! *stabs Report Card* Milhouse?! I thought you were dead. Nope. My character has a special ability: possum mode. Quest reward: 100 and 10 CoE Championship Arena

Behind the Laughter

The quest name is a reference to the first line of the Gettysburg Address, "fourscore and seven years ago," and to the video game Fortnite. A "fortnight" is two weeks, which is roughly half a month.
