Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Victor Kleskow's exclamation mark
Victor Kleskow Alright, kids, I'm back from my court-mandated Intensity Management Training.
Lisa You seem more relaxed. It's nice to see you focused on just enjoying the music.
Victor Kleskow Yeah. I mean, music is the point, right? Just relax...listen to it being played...enjoy it...
Victor Kleskow - Confused *listens to kids playing music badly*
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Okay, that's not gonna work.
If Victor Kleskow is owned: Task: "Make Victor Kleskow Give Music Students Tough Love". The job takes 4 hours.
Victor Kleskow - Happy Turns out I can only enjoy music if it's played well, and it's only played well through hard work and discipline — Kleskow Style!
Lisa - Sad I knew a kinder, gentler Kleskow was too good to last.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Victor Kleskow's exclamation mark
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed You kids really fell out of practice while I was away, but I'm gonna whip you back into shape.
Milhouse - Sad Aw, man. Now I'll have to get extra inhaler refills.
The General Excuse me, sir. I couldn't help but overhear, and you know, I think you're right. You need to whip these kids not just into musical shape but actual shape-shape.
Victor Kleskow I'm listening...
The General - Happy Might I suggest some actual marching?
Victor Kleskow - Confused Hmm...like a marching band? Everyone hates those losers.
Victor Kleskow - Happy Which makes it the perfect way to drill these losers into musical shape!
Lisa - Sad Better double that order of refills, Milhouse.
Milhouse - Sad Already on it.
If Victor Kleskow is owned: Task: "Make Victor Kleskow Lead a Musical March". The job takes 4 hours.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Victor Kleskow's exclamation mark
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Now they're too out of breath to play well. I should have never listened to unsolicited advice from a three-star general.
The General That's because they're not taking their training seriously. If these were my soldiers — uh, I mean musicians — I'd put them through an obstacle course.
The General - Happy I just happen to have one that you're free to use.
Victor Kleskow - Confused How will running an obstacle course help them play better?
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Do you have some ulterior motive?
The General No.
Victor Kleskow OK. Had to ask.
Victor Kleskow - Happy And now that you've answered, I can proceed with your ludicrous idea.
If Victor Kleskow is owned: Task: "Make Victor Kleskow Bark Orders at Kids". The job takes place at Daws Butler Hall and takes 4 hours.
Task: "Make Kids Run a Musical Obstacle Course" (x5). The jobs take place at Daws Butler Hall and take 4 hours.

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Victor Kleskow's exclamation mark
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Now that we've finished the obstacle course, let's play something easy. Chopin?
Martin - Confused *tries to play*
Martin - Passed Out *passes out*
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Well, the kids are even more tired to work on their music!
The General Oh, well, maybe now you can have them do some rifle drills...
Victor Kleskow - Surprised Wait a minute! Have I just been training these kids to be soldiers for you?
The General - Happy We like to begin indoctrination early now.
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Oh, heck no! I may be a strict disciplinarian, but I want my kids to make art, not war!
If Victor Kleskow is owned: Task: "Make Victor Kleskow Lead an Artistic Revolt". The job takes place at Daws Butler Hall and takes 4 hours.
Task: "Make Kids Tear Down an Obstacle Course" (x5). The jobs take place at Daws Butler Hall and take 4 hours.
The General - Annoyed Well that was disappointing. I didn't take you for a dirty hippie, Kleskow.
Victor Kleskow - Annoyed Happy to disappoint you, General.
Lisa - Thoughtful I take it you learned a valuable lesson about pushing kids too hard, Mr. Kleskow.
Victor Kleskow I definitely did, Lisa.
Victor Kleskow - Happy I need to keep it up so that you all become good enough musicians that you won't be tempted to join the army.
Lisa - Sad *sigh*
