Dialogue

Pt. 1

Between March 8, 2022 and March 16, 2022 Finish affixing your headpiece, Marguerite! You're on in five. On for who? The stands are empty. Empty? How is this possible with the array of freaks I've collected?! Parading freaks is so 1910. People want fresh. They all went over to Cirque de Puree. Their stunts ARE spectacular. I don't know how they do it. Something smells foul. That's my lunch — sardines and sawdust. If we don't do something soon, the Cirque is gonna eat our lunch. *sigh* I guess it's time I do the unthinkable. Tell people what's really in our hot dogs? Worse. It's time I apologize.

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1 Well, look what the lion dragged in. Come to gloat about driving us out of business, Burnsum? That's not why I'm here. My circus is failing worse than yours. I thought everyone in town loved your freak show. That was before that blasted Cirque showed up. Now, everyone is gaga for their fancy French performances. As such, I was wondering if you fancied an alliance, to drive those brie-breathers back to where they came from. I might be interested. Question: How are we going to drive the Cirque out of Springfield when everyone loves them? You leave that part to me... Task: "Collect Cotton Candy" (x155).

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2 Welcome to the Ultimate Fighting Zoo. Today it's a battle of heavyweights — our gorilla will be facing off against our alligator. Cool! I want front row for that! Hey, get your game face on. We're here to do a job, not watch two monsters munch each other. Aw, can't we catch the show and then steal the man-eating lion? If we get our own man-eating lion, then we'll be the ones putting on the show. I guess. Can we at least feed the lion a couple people I don't like? Say a certain fourth-grade teacher? There'll be plenty of time for eating teachers. Now here, take this crowbar... Task: "Collect Cotton Candy" (x115). Task: "Make Bart Steal a Man-Eating Lion".

Circus, Ding-A-Ling Front Office, Burnsum and Bailey Circus, Marguerite's Wagon, Circus Caravan, Cirque De Puree, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. You sure about this Burnsum? This lion looks pretty dangerous. Not to worry. I'll put my freaks up against a hungry lion any day of the week. But what if he, you know, eats someone? Then it's one less paycheck I'll have to write. Now c'mon, stardom awaits! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Sultry Sows of the South Seas

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 Ringmaster, I'm putting the clean acrobat uniforms in their dressing room. No, don't go in there! *opens door, gasps, shuts door* Why are there a bunch of tiny children in there? Where are the acrobats? Those ARE the acrobats. We use rubbery children for all our stunts. Adults could never be that flexible. You're exploiting children? All you circuses are the same. You just care about profit. Profit and beating those other awful animal circuses. Burnsum and Bailey have stooped to using a man-eating lion now. Mmm...eating man... We gotta go to Burnsum and Bailey's right now! No, Dad. You go without me. I've had enough of the circus. Your mother told me to keep an eye on you and that's what I'm gonna do! Or was it Bart? Doesn't matter. You seem like a kid and that means I'm responsible! Task: "Collect Cotton Candy" (x155).

Pt. 5

After completing Pt. 4 Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Marguerite and the Man-Eating Lion! Give that cat hell, Marguerite! Homer? What are you doing here? I wouldn't miss this show for all the Duff in the world! And don't worry, I brought Lisa along so you know I'm a caring father. My soul is in agony watching this poor lion get frightened into performing. Well, that still counts as keeping you safe. Umm, here, kitty kitty. It's hors d'oeuvre time... *roars* Yipes! Its chain broke. Marguerite is gonna be that lion's lunchable! This is horrible! Close your eyes, kids! Oh no. I came for a show and a show's what I'm gonna get! Homer, what are you doing? Dialing down the growl on that cat by getting him drunk. And maybe me a little as well. Task: "Collect Cotton Candy" (x195). Task: "Make Homer Feed the Lion Hippo Juice".

If you really think about it, we're all kinda living in cages... *purrs* Wow, what a show! Yeah, this circus taught me to feel good about my drinking problem. It made me want a man-eating lion for the force! Chief, no! We're supposed to befriend the community we serve. Always the wet blanket, aren't you Lou? Quest reward: 100 and 10 Elephant Pyramid
