Dialogue

Pt. 1

After completing The Time Traveler's Wife Pt. 2
Homer - Horrified *SHRIEK!* I missed my anniversary! I've got to travel back in time and remind myself!
Lisa - Curious Isn't that EXACTLY what Future You said not to do?
Homer - Skeptical I've never liked Future Me. One day there'll be something about this guy I just didn't trust back now.
Lisa I suppose there's no harm in helping you try something impossible like time travel. I've got texts on advanced astrophysics, cosmology--
Bart OR we could binge watch movies about time travel. “Time-Priest”, “Bad Physicists”, and “Medical Intern Strange” are personal favorites.
Task: "Make Homer Marathon Time Travel Movies". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds.
Homer Hollywood has taught me a valuable lesson: thinking about how time travel works is hard, so let's just make it up as we go! C'mon, gang!
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1
Professor Frink - Angry Beware, Homer Simpson! You tamper with the very fabric of spacetime!
Homer Yeah. So?
Professor Frink - Sad Well… most people would consider that bad. With the PARADOXES and the BUTTERFLY EFFECTS and the OH, NOW I'M MY OWN DAD.
Homer - Serious Shut up and help me find my time traveling toaster. I think it's packed with the rest of the Halloween junk.
Professor Frink - Embarrassed A time traveling toaster? That's the most preposterous thing I've ever heard! Now, my time traveling panini press on the other hand…
Task: "Make Homer Travel Back in Time". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds.
After starting the job if Act 1 is active
Homer - Surprised I've gone back in time millions of years! I can tell I'm still in Springfield, though.
Homer - Sarcastic The dinosaurs here all talk about how they're going to leave this provincial backwater one day, but you know they never will.
After starting the job if Act 2 is active
Homer - Confused Uh-oh. I appear to have overshot my time travel -- I'm in Ancient Egypt!
Homer - Happy Which, conveniently and for the purposes of this update, sat in the same location as modern-day Springfield!
After starting the job if Act 3 is active
Homer - Thoughtful Water everywhere… a storyline that seems hastily thrown-together and nonsensical… oh no, I'm in Waterworld!!!
Homer - Guilty Or, I've traveled back to pirate times. Oh please let it be murderous pirates and not Tin Cup with gills…
After finishing the task
Homer - Annoyed What gives?! I wanted to go back just to my anniversary, not centuries ago!
Professor Frink I'll remember your minor quibble when I'm dancing around, clad only in my Nobel Prize medal.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2
Homer - Serious I think I'll trust my time traveling needs to my faithful old toaster. Here's your panini press back, Mr. Mad Scientist.
Professor Frink - Angry I am not MAD, I simply-- What in glayvin have you done to my invention?!
Homer - Guilty Made a gloopy sandwich in it. And for the record, you do sound pretty mad right now.
Lisa - Worried Dad, are you sure you should be meddling with time?
Homer Probably not. Still gonna, though.
Task: "Make Homer Meddle With Time". The job takes place at Homer's Workbench and takes 6 seconds.
Homer - Surprised I collected so much cool stuff in the past, but none of it survived the journey back. What gives, stupid spacetime continuum?
Professor Frink The only material objects that survive the journey are clothes. Because the alternative is too horrible to consider.
If Act 2 is active
Homer - Confused What the heck is papyri?
Lisa It's the plural of papyrus.
Homer - Confused What the heck is papyrus?! I'm just gonna collect these pieces of paper instead.
After finishing the task
Lisa - Alarmed Uh, Dad, I think you forgot to close the time door behind you!

Next Quest: Buried in Time Pt. 1

Pt. 4

Previous Quest: Buried in Time Pt. 2
After completing Buried in Time Pt. 2
Homer Hey, Frink, you fixed your panini press! It has sort of a lame “steampunk” vibe now.
Professor Frink - Steampunk Yes, well, I had a lot of brass gauges sitting around. Purely accidental, of course.
Homer - Confused Then why are you wearing aviator goggles?
Professor Frink - Steampunk All right, I admit it. I… I still think steampunk is cool. Anyway, I've altered the press to collect errant tachyons released by your temporal meddling.
Homer - Laughing Ha ha! I'm sorry, but the nerd thinks a briefly-interesting subgenre from decades ago is still cool!
Task: "Place the Panini Press".
Professor Frink - Sad Schrödinger's cat! What was that gigantic explosion?
Homer - Mouth Full Your stupid sandwich machine keeps breaking every time a sandwich gets made on it.
Professor Frink - Angry It's not for cooking on you imbecile!
Lisa - Surprised Look! The tachyon emission blasted everyone back to their rightful time period.
Homer - Sarcastic Once again, I have, through stupendous carelessness, solved all the problems I created with my inconceivable incompetence. You. Are. Welcome.
Quest reward: Fossil50/Papyrus50/Eye Patch50 and XP10

Next Quest: Chaos Theory

Pt. 5

Previous Quest: Chaos Theory
After completing Chaos Theory
Hollis Hurlbut Homer, perhaps you would consider donating these ancient artifacts to found a Springsonian History Museum?
Homer - Thoughtful Hmmm… there's a lot of money in the museum game…
Hollis Hurlbut - Sad Well, no. It would be purely non-profit.
Homer - Thoughtful Hmmm… there's a lot of money in the non-profit game…
Hollis Hurlbut - Annoyed No. There's none.
Homer - Thoughtful Hmmm… there's a lot in none…
Task: "Build the Springsonian Museum". It takes 6 seconds.
Wise Guy - Grinning Hey pally, those are some nice specimens. I could "disappear" a few things from the ol' exhibits here. We could make some good “money”.
Homer - Confused Isn't that stealing?
Wise Guy - Happy It ain't "stealing" so long as you use air quotes.
Homer - Glassed Eye Oh, right. I "understand".
Quest reward: Specimen500 and XP10

Pt. 6

After completing Pt. 5
Homer - Guilty Marge, I'm sorry I forgot our anniversary. But this time I've got a solid excuse, involving time travel.
Marge - Confused Do I know you, sir?
Artie Ziff - Happy I'm Artie Ziff! And I would like to know what you are saying to this woman, Mrs. Artie Ziff!
Homer - Surprised Oh, no! I've messed up the spacetime continuum, and now Marge is married to Artie Ziff!
Artie Ziff “Spacetime continuum”? I think you mean the “when-where thingamabob”, which is what we call it in THIS thingamabob, thank you very much.
Task: "Make Homer Check if He's Disappeared From Photos". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
Lisa - Curious Dad? What are you doing home at this hour?
Bart Yeah, you don't get off work at the donut factory until seven.
Homer Okay, I may have lost Marge, but at least I still have my kids and what sounds like a way better job. But wait -- who's your mother?
Amber Simpson Hello, my tubby hubby!
Homer - Shocked Augh! Vegas Marge!
