Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on The Patriarch's exclamation mark Tim, your parishioner numbers are down again, and your flock just isn't as fulsome as we're looking for. There's a lot of competition these days, Patriarch, what with all the new streaming services. I haven't even started the new season of "Marvelous Mrs. Manson". It's not easy to motivate the masses. Not so, Tim. You just need to bring your A Game – watch and learn! Task: "Make the Patriarch Give Powerful Sermon". The job takes place at the Mega Church and takes 12 hours. And that's how it's done! *mic drop* Careful! I'm still making payments on that thing! You just have to fire 'em up with the word of God. And toss a couple of lit firecrackers to wake 'em up. It's easy to come in and do a rousing guest spot, but I'm a recurring character in these people's lives. You know, Tim, maybe it's time I found a Springfielder who can really inspire the supplicants of this suburb. Ha! Good luck with that! There's no one in this town as committed to the word of the Lord, who also fits my vestments. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on The Patriarch's exclamation mark Marge Simpson, I hear you're a pious woman who likes to plant it in the pew every Sunday. Would you be interested in answering a higher calling? Selling medicinal marijuana? I'm doing that late in season 31. No, I mean taking over as Pastor. Hm. Let me consider that while I bake some cookies. Let me give you a hand with that while we chat... Task: "Make the Patriarch Bake Religious Martyr Cookies". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Marge Bake Delicious Non-Religious Cookies". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours. Those are some...interesting cookies, Patriarch. This Saint Bartholomew cookie is awesome! Is the pink frosting supposed to be his flayed skin? Heh heh! Yes it is, young man! Good eye! So Marge, have you considered my offer? Are there any perks to joining the ministry? You get to hear a lot of juicy deathbed confessions. Did you know Bleeding Gums Murphy killed a hobo in a hit and run? Yikes. Um... I think I'll pass. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on The Patriarch's exclamation mark I see that you are popular with the youth of Springfield. We could use that in the Church. Have you ever considered becoming a minister? Hmm...I have always felt that I was destined for a larger emporium. My counter has been feeling a little tight lately. Literally. There's lots of room behind a podium. And in a nice purple robe. I do like the idea of not wearing pants to work. You already deal in books about magical powers. Just come do it for our team. Hmm. Tell me about your main characters, their special powers, and their one weakness. Task: "Make The Patriarch Struggle to Draw Similarities Between Superheroes and the Bible". The job takes place at the Android's Dungeon and takes 4 hours. If Comic Book Guy is owned: Task: "Make Comic Book Guy Skeptically Read the Bible". The job takes place at the Android's Dungeon and takes 4 hours. Well, what do you think of all that, young man? Fairly ridiculous. What kind of a father doesn't avenge his own son's death. John Wick, he is not. And while your "Satan" has some potential as a villain, he lacks the nuance and pathos of a Dr. Crab. Well, if you ever change your mind, come by the church. I will continue to worship at the altar of Fat Thor, thank you very much. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

If Herman is owned: After tapping on Herman's exclamation mark: If Herman is not owned: After completing Pt. 3 Hey Padre, I hear you've been nosin' around town quite a bit lately. Something is up, isn't it? Biblical plague coming? Frogs? Locusts? No, nothing like that. I'm seeking a newly energized evangelical to help elevate Springfield's righteousness in these troubled times. Say no more -- I'm your man! I've been preparing for this day for a long time. Um, really? Why, that's good news for the Good News! Let's head over to the church. Sure thing, boss. But first, I need your help with a couple things... Task: "Make the Patriarch Bless Doomsday Supplies". The job takes place at the Mega Church and takes 4 hours. You know, Herman, I feel like maybe we're not on the same page here. Sure we are. We're both itching for the end of the world. Except you're expecting a savior, and I'm expecting a fortune. People are gonna need guns and canned beans aplenty. And toilet paper. *leaves* Where you goin'? I have a whole room full of MRB's! MRB's? Meals Ready to Bless. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5[edit]

If Sideshow Bob is owned: After tapping on Sideshow Bob's exclamation mark If Sideshow Bob is not owned: After completing Pt. 4 Hello, my good man! I hear you're in the market for a motivated maven to move this town's citizenry into a more moral state. Hmmm. No offense, Mr. Sideshow, but I'm not sure you're the type of Pastor we're looking for. Ah, but who better than one who has fallen low and risen again. Hm. Perhaps you're right. Who better to lead a congregation than a prodigal son. Like the mighty rake that whacks me, no one has fallen and risen more than I! Task: "Make the Patriarch Watch Crazy Christian Cavalcades". The job takes place at the Mega Church and takes 4 hours. If Sideshow Bob is owned: Task: "Make Sideshow Bob Step on Seventeen Rakes". The job takes place at the Mega Church and takes 4 hours. So, your Patriarch-ness, how soon would I be able to reach out to troubled families to offer one-on-one counseling. Well... One family in particular, the Simpson family, could benefit from a visit. I hear they have a wayward son that needs to be... DEALT with. Why are you sharpening those enormous knives? Where did they even come from? An ankle holster. My brother got it for me for the holidays and I can't live without it. The HOLIDAYS? No pastor of mine is going to refer to Christmas as the holidays. Don't you know there's a war going on, according to one dubious cable news channel? Get lost, pal. How goes the quest to find my replacement, sir? Looks like you're still in business...for now. I told you I'm not easily replaceable. This town has got more nuts than a squirrel's digestive tract. I agree, Reverend. I agree. Quest reward: 200 and 20
