Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Tyler Boom's exclamation mark "School Poetry Night". Do we have to? Come on, if we survived "The Winter Pinter Playathon", we can survive this. I guess poems ARE way shorter than plays. But if there are any epic poems, I'm out! I know this isn't very Marge of me, but I brought a little something to "help". *takes vodka out of beehive* Marge Simpson, you beautiful blue-haired boozehound. I, too, brought a little something. *takes out plastic bag of liquor* Ooh, a Ziploc of — wait, what's in there? Everything from our liquor cabinet. Even that '03 Miller High Life you were saving? Wow. "In the shallow end of the swimming pool / My floaties gently hold each arm and leg / But the SPF 100 is not waterproof / And so I burn, and so I burn..." Poems are supposed to rhyme, idiot! You're so bad, Homie. You're so bad. No, you're so bad! SHHHHHHHH! They're just jealous of our alcohol-induced passion. Now it's time for the 8th grade class. The puberty gods are never kind to the 8th graders... Yeah, but now at least you can tell which ones are heading in a bad direction. Is that Scotty Boom's kid up there? My poem is called: "My Dad Spends Time With Me Now". Woo-hoo! Go Son! My Dad spends time with me now. / I miss being a rich kid. / That is my poem. / The end. At least that one was short. Task: "Make Tyler Boom Read Another Sad Poem". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary, Springfield High School, Shelbyville Elementary, or a Visitable Home and takes 8 hours. If Scotty Boom is owned: Task: "Make Scotty Boom Film The Poem With His Phone". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary, Springfield High School, Shelbyville Elementary, or a Visitable Home and takes 8 hours. What?! Now it's fourth graders again? When is this poem fest going to end? Also, how many grades are in this school? Pass me the fun sauce. Roses are red / Violets are dead / I am a twin / She is also my twin. Those two creep me out. A lot. They wouldn't last a minute in burning-witch times. The Scarlet Witch...is she a witch or a superhero? Or...a super witch?! Will you two quiet down! My son is about to go up again and read another poem! Oh look, it's Chef Boy-I'm-Lame! Really? We're at a school event. My second poem is titled "Why Can't My Dad Just Be A Celebrity Chef Again?" "Being a kid is hard / Having a Dad that's rich is cool / I'd get a job but that is also hard / I'd rather just sit around all day / And— Enough! That's it with your terrible and super-entitled sounding poems! You are getting off your butt and getting a job. Fine, I'll get a job. What did you have in mind? CEO of the Chew Network? Tyler, CEO isn't a starter job. You're gonna start at the bottom and work your way up, just like your old man did. I guess. How many K will I be making a month, and will that be in Bitcoin or Ethereum? What's this school teaching you? Iambic pentameter, metaphor, syntax...and that's just tonight. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Tyler Boom's exclamation mark Tyler, this is the Chew Network kitchen where all the cooking is done for our various shows. Allow me to introduce you to my acting sous chef. I want you to do whatever he says. It's a pleasure to meet you, uh, Tyler, sir. Whoa, whoa. No "sirs" necessary. Tyler here is just your average worker. I don't want you to give him any special treatment just because he's my son, you hear? Wow, you're a sous chef? You're almost the same age as me. How'd you do it? Well, I'm only "acting" sous chef. My title and salary are actually dishwasher-level until they find someone else. But since you're here, I do need someone to wash the dishes while I sort out a problem with our deliveries. Ugh. Wash dishes? Can't you just use the dishwasher? You are the dishwasher. So let's scrub those dishes really hard, okay? Fine. Task: "Make Tyler Boom Wash Dishes". The job takes place at the Barbecue Battle Booth, Springfield Barbecue Festival, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. Well, it took all day, but I finally got the last of these dishes done. You know, it feels good to do some real work. I think I can see why my dad does this so much. You didn't do anything! You just hired three TaskRabbits to wash all the dishes for you! And it was surge pricing! Yeah! Well, the dishes are clean, aren't they? Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Tyler Boom's exclamation mark So, how's my boy doing? Terrible. He keeps hiring people to do all the work for him. Really? That's a shame. I guess he just isn't cut out for this job. Yeah. I think you're right, sir. That's why I'm promoting him to line cook! Well, it's about time. I've been at this entry-level position for almost half a day! Task: "Make Tyler Boom Get Promoted to Line Cook". The job takes place at the Barbecue Battle Booth, Springfield Barbecue Festival, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. If Squeaky Voice Teen is owned: Task: "Make Squeaky Voice Teen Realize Life Isn't Fair". The job takes place at the Barbecue Battle Booth, Springfield Barbecue Festival, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. So are you still my boss, or am I your boss now? I don't actually know what sous chef means. I don't either, but since it has a French word in it, I'm still in charge. And now that you're a line cook, I'm going to treat you like one. I need you to dice a hundred onions before lunch. A hundred onions?! That's gonna take forever. Plus, my eyes are really sensitive. Eh, I'll just put 'em in this blender instead. *turns on blender* I said dice the onions. We can't use them if they're blended! Hey guys, just checking in. How's everything going? Whoa, did Tyler just make this onion paste all by himself? Well, technically yes, but... Like father like son. Whose house? Boom's house! Tyler, I'm promoting you to sous chef. But...I'm the sous chef! You were acting sous chef. And what an actor you've been. So good in fact that I'm demoting you to line cook. What?! That's so unfair. Your kid can't even dice an onion! Don't worry. As your boss, I'll promote you one day. Also, I need those dishes in the sink washed. Now! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Tyler Boom's exclamation mark Congratulations on your promotion, son. Are you ready to make your old man even prouder? You bet! Ever since yesterday, when I started out as a dishwasher, I've been working so hard towards this goal. Glad to hear it, because we're featuring your menu tonight! You can count on me, Dad. Alright, everything I've learned throughout my entire cooking career will be under the spotlight and put to the test... All eight hours of it! Task: "Make Tyler Boom Cook on a Hibachi". The job takes 4 hours. If Scotty Boom is owned: Task: "Make Scotty Boom Beam With Undeserved Pride for Tyler". The job takes place at the Barbecue Battle Booth, Springfield Barbecue Festival, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. I hope you all are having a lovely evening. So tell me, how is your experience so far at our fine establishment? This just in, Scotty Boom's new restaurant is a flop. Worst. Meal. Ever. My onions were mushy. I don't like mushy onions. Really? I'm so sorry. If you don't mind, let me take a look at those onions... My God, you're right! And I know exactly who to blame! Tyler, I made a grave mistake when I demoted our sous chef to line cook. Finally, some logic in this kitchen! I can't believe he used a blender to dice onions! What?! I didn't blend them. Tyler did! And now you can't even own up to your own mistake. That's it, you're demoted to dishwasher. Dishwasher?! But— ACTING dishwasher. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Tyler Boom's exclamation mark Mr. Boom, I don't mean to complain, but since I can't get demoted any lower, we need to talk about your son. Everything at the restaurant has gone downhill since he started. Hmm, well I suppose you have a point. It's time for you to choose, sir. It's either him or me. You're one of my best employees. In fact, I think you're my only employee. Where is everyone else? Tyler fired them all for "looking at him funny". *sigh* I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but I think you're right. It's time to make the tough call. Thank you, Mr. Boom. I know this won't be easy, but you're making the right decision. If Scotty Boom is owned: Task: "Make Scotty Boom Promote Tyler to Executive Chef". The job takes place at the Barbecue Battle Booth, Springfield Barbecue Festival, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. Task: "Make Tyler Boom Get Promoted to Executive Chef".

Thanks, Dad! Wow, "Executive Chef", I still can't believe it! No thanks necessary, son. You've earned this. Yeah, I really did, didn't I? Quest reward: 200 and 20
