Brockman - TV Our top story tonight continues to be the snowstorm that has had a truly catastrophic effect on our town.
Brockman - TV Many residents have found themselves unable to leave their homes as the snow has completely covered their doors and windows.
Brockman - TV Those residents who are wealthy enough to afford such extravagances as a second floor may still be able to leave their homes, but that might involve crawling out a window.
Brockman - TV Truly this is shaping up to be the greatest storm in the history of our city.
Brockman - TV Reporting to you live from my beach house in Malibu, this is Kent Brockman signing off...
Brockman - TV ...suckers.
Brockman - TV What do you mean the mic was still on? What the f— *static*
Homer - Annoyed Marge? Why don't we have a beach house in Malibu?

Task: "Make Homer Fail to Pay Attention". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
Marge - Annoyed So, if you hadn't drunk any Duff for the last 32 years, we'd have at least $175,000 more than we currently do.
Homer - Horrified What?
Marge - Eye Roll Yes. Since Moe charges you about $5 a Duff, and you drink about three a day...
Homer - Curious No, not the money! It's that you think I've been going to Moe's for 32 years. How old do you think I am?
Marge - Annoyed *annoyed murmur*

Pt. 2[edit]

After completing Pt. 1
Santa Claus - Surprised What do you mean, I can't deliver presents this year?
Happy Little Elf Bismuth - Shouting It's exactly what it sounds like. The snowstorm has grounded you.

Quimby - TV People of Springfield! This is Mayor Quimby, coming to you from City Hall.
Quimby - TV Like you, I am appalled at the lack of planning from Santa Claus, leading to the cancellation of presents this year.
Quimby - TV But I must urge you to stop rioting in your own homes, as this will not solve anything.
Miss Springfield - TV What do you mean no presents? Do you expect me to wear that fur coat for two years in a row? *throws vase*
Quimby - TV *ducks* This – er, um – is what I mean...
Lisa - Curious Why does it not surprise me that people started wrecking their own homes when they learned Santa wasn't coming?
Bart Isn't being jaded great, Lis?

Bart - Sad No.

Pt. 3[edit]

After completing Pt. 2
Marge I know everyone is feeling down because the storm is cancelling everything, but that doesn't mean we can't still have a great Christmas!
Homer - Sad Marge, I love you, but unless you bought a closet full of Duff before McGrew ruined beer forever, I doubt even your positive attitude can save this holiday.
Lisa Come on, Dad. Christmas isn't just about beer. It's about family, and spending time with the ones you love!
Homer Lisa, it's time you learned one of the great lessons about life.
Lisa - Worried Oh no.

Pt. 4[edit]

After completing Pt. 3
Bart - Confused Hey, Lisa? I know you just had your childlike belief in Christmas crushed and all, but do you hear that?

Mr. McGrew - Soot Covered I don't remember there being a step down in my foyer. I'll have to speak to my butler.

Mr. McGrew - Happy *wipes the soot from his face* It's a miracle! The Spirits of Christmas have shown me how to spread goodwill and cheer!

Pt. 5[edit]

After completing Pt. 4
Lisa - Curious Mr. McGrew, I'm confused. These are amazing gifts, but why did you buy up all the buildings in Springfield?
Mr. McGrew Oh, Aunt Rita. You've been hitting the sherry a bit too hard this year, haven't you? *chuckles*
Marge Lisa, why don't you help Mr. McGrew crawl out the window in the attic? The snow hasn't covered that yet, and I don't think anyone wants him to be stuck here overnight.
Mr. McGrew My goodness, what a lovely blue Christmas tree. *tries to hang an ornament on Marge's hair*
Lisa Good idea, Mom.
Task: "Collect Snow Jackets" (x225).
Task: "Make Lisa Help Mr. McGrew Climb Out the Window". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
Task: "Make Mr. McGrew Climb Out the Window". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
Lisa Easy, easy. There you go!
Mr. McGrew Thank you, Lisa.
Lisa - Shocked Wait, you know who I am?
Mr. McGrew - Happy Of course. You're Lisa Simpson, one of the brightest minds in Springfield. And you always seem to end up right in the middle of any disaster or plot development.
Lisa - Thoughtful I don't understand. You planned all this?
Mr. McGrew Of course. I bought up all the businesses in Springfield to ensure they'd survive the storm.
Mr. McGrew I've got more money than I know what to do with, so it's the least I can do. A cash infusion here and there to keep their businesses afloat while customers are snowed out.
Lisa - Curious And when the storm passes?
Mr. McGrew The former owners will find the deed to their store back in their possession. It's not my goal to run the place, far too much work.
Lisa - Confused This seems too good to be true.
Mr. McGrew - Happy I learned my lesson when the Spirits visited me all those moons ago. This is just my attempt to pass that lesson along.
Lisa Well...thank you, Mr. McGrew.
Mr. McGrew - Happy Don't mention it!
Mr. McGrew Seriously. Don't mention it. Watching people react to me like I'm a blind, senile old coot is my greatest amusement these days.
Mr. McGrew - Serious And an excellent legal defense to all the criminal mayhem I commit.
Bart - Surprised *shouting* Hey, Lisa! Did you put that old guy out the window yet?
Mr. McGrew Merry Christmas, Lisa Simpson! *crawls out the window*
Lisa - Happy Merry Christmas, Mr. McGrew!
